There are nearly two thousand miles of fine motor roads, half of them Yellowing the coast, which has a tele of priva- teer and pirate, phantom frigate and buried treasure to every mile. At, eighteen tourist motor camps the visi- for may find accommodations. Nova 'Scotia has the oldest Euro- pean settlement on the continent north of the Gulf oY Mexico. In its ruined fortresses the student may retrace four centuriee of American history, Here is Fort Anne and Fort Edward and Beausejour, and the desolation of; shined masonry which was Louib- � bourg—Louis the XIV's "most splen- did eity"—the mightiest stronghold of French power in the New World. Here are the descendants of the Highland Scots who were "out" for Prince Charlie in 1145, who subsequently found refuge in this New Scotland, and still speak their ancient Gaelic tongue. None of the waters in Nova Scotia aro preserved. Countless rivers, brooks and lakes provide trout and r.aimon through a long season.

If you're having trouble climbing I little hills; IIf: the carburetor sputters ° and the differential musters, And you do net dare repair it—for the bills. If you've tried your hest to trade it and the dealers all upbraid it, And deny it has the value that you think; pn a night that makes you shiver take it down beside the river, Kiss it fondly, push it in and let it sink. Why, you ask me, hesitating, do I favor perpetrating Such a crime as this, advising it be sunk? You remark: "You hadn't oughter shove the car into the water. While there's any chance of selling it for junk!" But a car is worth befriending when its useful life is ending, When its will to fake the hill on high has ceased; Would you junk a friend, I wonder,, have him torn apart, asunder?!
