Write to: Canadian Stage and Arts Publications Ltd. 52 Avenue Road Toronto, Ontario M5R 2G3 By MacKay Fairfield Tate (c) Canada Wide Feature Services Limited release on the subject. Quote: "Book a room in a tlsherman s home in Nova Scotia, a century -old far- mhouse in Quebec, a stately Victorian mansion in On- tario or a modern ranch - style home in Alberta. B & B's offer clean, com- fortable lodgings at reasonable rates, home - cooked meals and lots of flexibility. Perhaps most im- portant for the traveller who wants to see more than the sights, B & B's, provide a great opportunity to meet locals and gain insights into local ways. In Canada, the Bed and Breakfast concept was pioneered in Nova Scotia's Cape Breton Island. The pro- gram has proved to be so popular there -that by -test summer 65 island homes had opened their doors to visitors. Probably the easiest way to track down B & B establishments along Cana- dian highways and byways is to get a copy of "Country Bed and Breakfast ?laces in Canada". Compiled by John Thompson (Deneau and Greenberg Publishers) this paperback was written by some 160 Bed and Breakfast proprietors from points as far east as Hearts Delight, Newfoundland and as far west as Ladysmith, B.C. Each listing includes the owner's name, address and phone number, directions on how to get there, number of rooms, owner's description of the facilities and surroun- dings, comments by previous visitors and price. Among the Ontario listings is that of Mable and Lorne Snyder's 81 hectare (200 acre) farm, a short drive from the Stratford Festival and Kitchener's renowned Farmers' Market. "We love meeting people," writes Mrs. Snyder, "and we offer a comfortable atmosphere • with Mennonite home cook- ing." Anyone wishing more in- formation on the Bed and Breakfast concept of accom- modation is welcome to drop into the News -Record office and -read orpick up a copy of the whole article:— • .— Smile The hold-up man shoved a note at the bank teller, or- dering, "I've got you covered. Hand over all the dough in the cage." The teller scribbled his reply. "Kindly go to the next window. I'm on my lunch hour."

To do their good turn for the day, Beavers visited a few residents of Clinton leaving a small gift of flowers and a wish for a happy day. Special thanks goes to Rosemary Armstrong from the Huron Day Care Centre for the Homebound for all her assistance and to Florence Elliott for the use of her home for lunch. At the regular colony meeting the Beavers shared with the Cubs in the study of Judo, an art which is becoming very popular in our area. Ken McIlveen from Vanastra and several of his students demon- strated this art Thursday night having very little problem holding the attention Of their audience. It was pointed out to the boys however that Judo is an art of self-defence only and is to be taken very seriously. It should not be tried in the backyard without proper supervision. Following the program Beavers, Cubs and even Leaders and Mothers tried their skill at Judo. Special thanks to Ken McIlveen for donating his time to the Colony. A reminder to parents of Colony A that next week we go bowling, Please check your newsletter for SPECIAL DETAILS. Colony B: Hop Hop Rabbit was the opening game and Beavers hopped on over to listen to Rainbow read the; story :of Hans,and the Hare Rusty tlxiii,le4asgame of soccer before dividing the Beavers intafiodges to • colour Easter eggs. Hawkeye performed the closing wishing all the Beavers a Happy Easter. SCOUTS: Scouts took a break from the usual routine spending the entire meeting playing basketball. This break is well deserved as Scouts have been very busy with preparation and fund raising for CJ 81. There are still cedar trees to be planted for Trees for Canada and Scouts would appreciate your pledges. Also a reminder of the upcoming Scout camp this weekend at the Huron Fish and Game Farm.
