Pinery Park Revisited
The treasures stored in Pinery -
Park, dive miles south of Grand
Bend on 4ighway 21, are so many
and varied that no apology is
offered,' for reverting to some fur-
ther detail. The road system with-
in the Park is Virtually a lozenge
shaped loop %with a long N.E.-S.W.
akis. You enter by a, tail to this
loop and are • advised to turn left
a the first junction to traverse the
loop in a' clockwise direction. Thus
you Will tend to have the sun be-
hind yo'u and the scene ahead, as
you drive slowly through the aven-
ue of oaks, which will be enhanced.
The old river accompanies, you on
the right for • half a mile, when
you cross it by one of the two
dam's. Now, refusing the Camping
areas to the left, drive on until a
sign to Parking Lot 9. 'Do not
park, but drive on through a gap
in .the dunes and debouch on to
the beach road. At about 5 p.m.
the view down this beach is breath-
taking. The long lines of waves,
rolling in, the gorgeous colors on
the' lake and the sand colored road-
way is relieved by the bright green
of a series of lone pines. .All this
is paralleled by the grass covered
dune on t,op of which a1.1 manner
.of juniper fights a winning battle
to establish itself. If you can tear
yourself away from the • sight of
what must be Huron's loveliest

beach, you turn inland at the north
end of Section 8 on to a road
sheltered all the Way by the ir-
regularities of the dunes. Continu-
ingo the river is crossed again and
is followed ,for a two' mile stretch.
On its placid .waters yellow. and
white lilies are',about to flower.
The return journey is likely to be
slow for wild flower lovers. It is
hard not to stop to capture, on film
the rich orange of the butterfly
weed, the black eyed susans, the
bluebells and bee balm. These are
not for picking but are subjects
for your camera, the flowers re
corded on which will never fade,
It .is hard to describe this lovely
new acquisition temperately, For
those who have eyes to perceive,
here is one of the loveliest, and
most peaceful aspects of I'luronia,
Aftermath of the District Meeting

The fireman's hat is a symbol of protection.
So is your fire insurance policy.
When fire strikes, alert firemen are soon on their -way,
accepting risks themselves to protect your life and property.
And when fire strikes, fire insurance steps in to
offset disastrous financial loss. '
Every week, some 1,400 fires break out across Canada.
Companies writing fire insurance pay out more than

all the fires which take the liv-es of more than
