J. BROWN Wingham, Ontario r QT'S BETTER BECAUSE IT'S CANADIAN FROM BONNIE SCOTLAND` M. R. Fiindlater Tells of 'Trip From England, Glasgow, Scotland, August 21, 1929 Dear Sister;. I wrote you last from Hawick, I think, and here I am. in Glasgow. I came up from Hawick to Edinburgh by bus, and intended staying in Edin- burgh, dinburgh, but it was raining, raining, all the way up, and Edinburgh was hor- ribly dreary and dirty -looking, so I just came on to Glasgow. It has been cold and wet most of the time I've been here, but I have had a fine time, and however disagreeable the weath- er may have been for "humans," it has a very beneficial effect on the flower .gardens -roses, roses every- where, blooming as profusely as in. June. I saw a dahlia last evening; called the "show dahlia" which was as large as a plate, with a beautiful mixed coloring. I took a boat and went down the Clyde River for a trip to the Kyles of Bute, famed for their beauty. 'The Clyde has been dredged to be big enough for ocean liners at high tide—at low tide the main channel carries' all the water,. for the banks are mu 1 beds, on which thousands of sea gulls pick tip their food as the water recedes. All along on each side new vessels were being riveted and the continuous drumming of the electric riveters hummed in our ears until we had passed well down the river. Other were ships strung w e g up in the clocks for repairs, while others were getting new coats of paint. On our , way, we .met one of Henry Ford's Detroit fleet finding its way up the river to Glasgow. We passed Dumbarton Rock, on which once stood the Castle of that name, which was the watch dog of. the Clyde in the days of old, even long before Bruce and Wallace fought for Scot- land's freedom. The hills rose on our right, range after. range, covered with the purple heather, the mists and the clouds covering all the rough rugged clefts in them, and showing them all indescribably .beautiful. On the boat, the band played many old Scottish. tunes, and the passengers took up the refrain and all sung heartily "The Bonnie Wells of Weari" (wearie) and "The Road to the Isles," and finished a fine program with 'Auld Lang Syne: A favorite song was "I must have a cup of tea" and at lunch and supper this was sung withmuch laughter.

Every city and town has its tea rooms, and here men and women gather for tea and cake or thin slices of bread and butter, every afternoon about 4 or 5 o'clock. Their coffee isn't worthy of the name—one man who had spent some time in U. S. A. said: "Oh, aye, the Americans tasted our coffee once, an' they all tak' - tea." Well the tea is always good, I went out to the field of Bannock- burn by motor and on to Stirling Cas- tle, the famous battle -field is marked by a flag pole, and this year it is yielding a crop of oats. The Castle at Stirling still standshigh above the town, and is very well kept up—no dilapidated walls there; from here we turned off to the beautiful Valley of Dunblane, and thence across the Clyde by ferry at Paisley and again to Glasgow. 1 met some very nice Scottish folk and they invited me to stay a week- end with them at a Highland resort called Kilfinan. They called for me Thut:sday and I had a most delightful drive through the Argyle country, in- to the Highlands of Scotland. We passed Loch Lomond with its moun- tain overlooking it, all much as nat- ure had made it, which to me, makes it the more alluring. We met and passed many walkers—men and wo- men—in stout shoes and clothes, a stick in their hand and knapsack ov- er their shoulders, all tramping the beautiful winding roads, and climbing hills for views of their beautiful Scot- land. We had a run of 85 miles northward, and upward too, and on the crest of the hills, which is called "Rest -and -be -Thankful" we stopped to have a look back over the trail: we had followed, moor land to right and left, silver water falls and streams running merrily to the sea, and all ringed around with mountains. Here and there a white -washed crofter's cottage stond out clearly against the purple heather, or bracken on the hill- side, and flocks' of hill sheep, with curly horns and black noses, picked their food from the moorland. The cottage or cottages, overlooked Lock Fyne which winds up froth the sea for over 50 miles, and reflected in its waters not only the peaks of the mountain range but the little white towns nestling along the bank. On a windy hill stands a Celtic crossin memory of those who fell in the War. I went over to Edinburgh one day and went up to tlae Castle to see this war memorial, by far the finest thing I've seen—London's cenotaph is com- mon compared with it. I also roamed through the Castle, saw the roone where fames 1 of England, was bora, a little bit of a room with a small bay whitlow in it, However the day was a wet one again, So I hadn't a chance to. see as much as I wanted to. I leave .Friday of this week for North of Ireland, where I'll stay for about 10 days or two weeks and then come back to Scotland for afew days before sailing :for U. The "hay in this country is getting' an awful soaking, and oats and wheat are just turning -yellow, I hope :you have better weather or the `mets will all be grumbling; they accept it phi1- osophically here. Regards to all, Mary R. Findlatet:, Mr, 'Scott, local telephone manager. This new plan, known as '"Rotation Billing," will become effective inthis. part of the system during the month. of October. Underthenew plan the Company's thousands of accounts, instead of be- ing sentout all together at the be- ginning of each month, will be pre- pared andmailed in six equal. groups. The groups will, be dated the first, sixth, eleventh, sixteenth, twenty-first and twenty-sixth of each month, and accounts in each group will be mailed within five business days after their date. Telephone subscribers served from the local exchange will, receive ac- counts under the new plan dated the twenty-first of each month. Mr. Scott pointed out several de- cided advantages of the new plan., Each account will show charges up to date. For example, the October ac- count, now being mailed as the last under the old plan, shows long dis- tance charges up to the 20th of Sep- tember. Under, the new plan, such charges will be, right up to the date of the bill. Another innovation, the advantages of which were clearly apparent on a specimen new account which Mr: Scott displayed, is the snaking out of bilis on special machines. Each fi- gure is clearly typewritten and totals are made up mechanically. The ac- count itself is on white paper, assur- ing the subscriber a clear, neat and accurate statement. During the transition period be- tween the old and new systems, it will be necessary to include charges in the different groups for periods of varying lengths. However, when the change has been completed, accouhts will cover the regualr periods, that is, the month preceding the date of the account for long distance and dir- ectory charges (if any) and exchange service charges for one month follow- ing. Each subscriber, Mr. Scott stated, will receive a notice with his Octo- ber account and also with the follow- ing one. .nese notices explain the new system and indicate the period to be covered by future accounts. The members of Mr. Scott's business of- fice staff are well acquainted with the features of the plan and will be pleas- ed to furnish any additional informa- tion. NEW PLAN FOR TLE.
