We learned a great deal about
the countryside from the quaint
drawings and chatty script, which
we quote in part, "Tucked away
on the edge of Lake Huron it
boasts no sidewalks, no street
signs, no movies; rather third and
fourth genetration families who
return perennially (like the.
Scots) to enjoy its beauty."
It goes on to explain that Bay-
field is the counterpart of an
English village — although Clan
Gregor Square (which is a
circle) might' be right from
Scotland. And now there are
summer theatricals in the town
hall and the flax fields en route
to Clinton (where the RCAF
station is) ere in blue. Sky and

Driving takes you to B e n
Miller -- a place, not a person.
Here there is an old mill which
has been run by one family for
some 135 years. Although the
working personnel has changed,
it is suggested that to live that
long in Bayfield is a happy and

Drafts and notes differ in that
the former is a written order to
pay; the latter is a written prom-
ise to pay.
You are warned that in a ven-
ture to the'postoffiee where
every one goes twice daily, with
dogs, you may get lost. This is
bedause of a street-signlefs,

temporarily, you are assured.
Even lost you will turn up . at
either the bluffs overlooking the

a more pleases -is situation, ap-
parently, than most people find
themselves in when they know
where they're going. Finally, note
a P.S. to the effect that Bayfield
has no curfew, so the evenings
are long and merry.
Only Bayfield blues are in the
