Quebec Expects Banner Tourist Season
•
The Great Gates of Quebec's
ancient city wall -originally
designed to discourage hostile
visitors -will be thrown open
this summer for a large scale
tourist invasion, expected to top
all previous records. With most
of Europe's Old World charms
affected by wartime conditions,
increased numbers of Canadians
and Americans will take advan-
tage of Quebec's historic sur-
roundings and fine sporting facil-
ities.
Combining the charm of the
past with the luxuries of the
present the Chateau Frontenac is
the centre of the city's social and
sports activities. Dominating the
city's skyline, the majestic Cana-
dian Pacific hostelry is within
easy distance of the city's out-
standing points of interest - an
ideal headquarters for the visiting
tourist. Dufferin Terrace, adja-
cent to the hotel, offers an ideal
view of the historic "Lower Town"
and the broad St. Lawrence.
Though possessing ideal facili-
ties for practically every modern
sport, Quebec's chief fascination
to the tourist lies in its 01d World
charm. Its narrow, winding
streets, lofty spired churches.
convents and quaint dormered
dwellings are reminiscent of me-
dieval Normandy. Its not -so -
peaceful years aro recalled by
battlefields, grim stone forts and
ancient cannon.
Nearby points of interest in-
clude the Lorene Indian Reserva-
tion, the Isle of Orleans, unspoiled
by the rush of civilization, the
Shrine of Ste. Anne de Beaupre,.
and the Montmorency Falls. For
the sports enthusiast there are.
fine facilities for golf, tennis, and.
badminton, while miles of colorful
highways beckon the motorist.
Laurentide National Park, 30'
miles from the City, is a paradise
for fishermen, canoeists, camera
fans and nature lovers.
Quebec City is easily accessible
over Canadian (Pacific lines, and
is conveniently connected with
important centres in eastern Can-
ada and the United States.

of the C.P.R. line was at Moosejaw.
There was no station at Winnipeg,
baggage being just piled up beside
the track; the streets had board
walks and mud.
Mr. Houston was married 66 years
ago to Mary Ann Harrison, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. William Harrison of
Bayfield. They lived at Listowel for
a short while, Mr. Houston being en-
gaged in carpentering work, and then
returned to Bayfield.
They have two sons and a laugh.

RIDEAU HALL
STATELY PLACL
Fine Mansion in Ottawa Awaits New
Governor-General and Princess
The Earl of Athlone, Canada's new
Governor-General, will take up his
official residence in a stately lime-
stone mansion on the banks of the
Ottawa River in a setting of gently
rolling lawns and fine old tress.
Rideau Hall, traditional home of
the vice -regal incumbent, stands as a
memorial to the long succession of
governors-general who have lived
there since Confederation. Each has
added something •structurally to the
three-storey residence or its sur-
roundings.
Rideau Hall stands in the eastern
part of Ottawa, about 1% miles from
the Houses of Parliament and slightly
east of the confluence of the Rideau,
and Ottawa rivers. An ornamental
iron fence sets off the beautiful
gardens and green parklands from
the bustle of city traffic.
'The building dates back to the
days when Ottawa was still the little
village of Bytoun, unthought of as.
the future capital of Canada. The
late Hon. Thomas McKay, a lumber
magnet, purchased 1,000 acres of
woodlands on which to build a fam-
ily homestead. As the blocks :of lime-
stone gradually rose on the site in
1837, Queen. Vidalia, was ascending
the throne.
