SOCIAL CENTRE IN NORTHERN
WOODS -
Deep in the heart of the rugged
North Country, hidden by pine topp-
ed hills and thick virgin forest's, lies
a chain of sparkling blue lakes known
as Lake of .Bays. Almost unknown
o the outside world until a few years
ago, these Lakes have become the
summer playground of vanationists
and tourists.
The Lake of Bays district is. large
-enough to enjoy seclusion 'and a holi-
day of backwoods life—if that is de-
sired If pleasure, gayety and joyous
•companionship is your holiday goal,
there are large luxurious hotels, ultra-
-modern, where golf, tennis, bowling,
„swimming may occupy your time-
-where music and dancing. Anakes a
perfect end to a perfect day. -
Any Canaclan National Railways
Agent will gladly give you illustrated
literature and full information on the
Lake of Bays. Ask him for a list of
hotels and ,cottages from which to
make your selection.
KNOW THE JOY OF BRIGHT
WATERS AND HAPPY LANDS
The Indians coming upon a chain
..of gleaming, shimmering lakes about
ninety miles east of Toronto,' named
them "ICawartha" --"bright waters
and happy lands."
It is many years since the Indians
,gave the name "Kawartha" to these
lakes; yet today vacationists find it
the source of happy holidays in the
many resorts scattered along the
,shores.
If you are an ardent fisherman, cast
_your line in the larger lakes for bass
,and maskinonge; in the smaller lakes
speckled trout trout provide good sport
At any of the many good summer
,botels there is every facility for canoe
-

WHAT HAPPENED THE MEN?
' I t is generally understood that
special invitations are extended the
fair sex on certain occasions,' custom
decreeing that the men will attend as
a matter of course. Well, this long-
established custom received a real
bump on Friday', evening last, when
of an attendance of about 200 only
ten per cent, were of the stronger sex.
As the entertainment was tinder the
auspices of the Women's Hospital
AuXiliary, men were naturally expect-
ed to be there in force both as an
encouragement to the Auxiliary, as an
evidence of approval, and to welcome
some young people from the near
vicinity, who at some sacrifice gave of
their thee to endeavour, to entertain
the people But they were not and
'consequeetly the affair did not prove
the 'financial success anticipated '
The Anglican Young People pres-
ented an interesting three -act -drama,
the plot centering around ;a mummy
a rich feeident of ta southern city had
sent from Mexico. But on its arrival
the mummy proved 'a real live girl,
and this led to no end of ridiculous
and embarrassing incidents.
The Young people were possibly a
little too universatily nervous to do
that jtistice to their roles, which their
ability warranted, and which had beett
proved on ether occesiens. The cast
Was well-chosen, and the parts well
prepared, and in meny cases acquitted
themselves with credit,

WESLEY-WILLIS CHURCH
BYRNED
About two o'clock Thursday more-
ing Wesley -Willis United Church,
Clinton, was discovered to be on fire,
and in a short time the historic build-
ing was a complete wreck, only the
walls standing. Wesley, church was
built in 1900, and in those days had
the reputation of being one of the
most imposing edifices in this part of
the iprovince. In 1921 the Unionist
Presbyterians went over to Vv esiey,
church, the name being changed to
Wesley Willis making it a strong or-
ganization. The loss must be close to
$75,000, with an insurance of about
$25,00o. There are still two Union
churches left in Clinton, so it is not
known whether Wesley -Willis will be
rebuilt.

AN EXPLCSDED MYSTERY
Early risers oncoming down town
Wednesday morning, evere'a little sur-
prised at seeing 'a large sedan backed
into a post at the rear of the 'Bank of
Commerce. When it remained there
at noon, and the morning train
lbeeneest tenni ef the daring Mail rob-
bery at Toronto, some jumped to the
conclusion that the highwaymen had
got this far and abandoned their car,
There was some foundation for this,
as the car held not a drop of gasoline,
nor had the radiator any water It
looked like as if the machine had gone
its distance ,and abandoned for one
with more power and ability to move.
Interest increased as the machine re-
mained there till after siX o'clock, var-
ious theories being advanced as to the
reason. If itet ro,b1sees car, had
some one been abduCted, had some
one brought in a load of contraband
that night, and upset the local market,
or sent in on through by another
car. Well, the arith6'iieis dispelled
tile mystery, on malciiig Some etquir-
ies at the Brunswick. Some Toronto
stock and bond salesmen arrived after
midnight, and ignorant of the rear lo-
cation of the hotel natked their car
at what they though the proper place.
After towing the machine to a garage,
filling up the gaeolthe tank -nand rad-
iator, it purred along as if the rest had
been a necessity.
