A fascinating retreat for fisher- rnen in this part of Ontario, is .the French River district. Since the erection of a comfortable, commod- ious bungalow camp which opened in 1923, visitors hove flocked there in slumbers that have taxed its capac- ity. Fighting bass, grown strong in the swift waters of the river, and huge muskellunge are eaught in large numbers. Other opegies are plentiful too. Most of the Ontario places are easily reached from Toronto. The Muskoka and Kawartha- chains of lake's are the annual haven of many visiting families who occupy cot- tages, camps and hotels of varying degrees of comfort and luxury. All enjoy the €lry, pine -scented air that is a sure remedy for hay fever. many vacathmists are ardent fisher- COZY FRENCH eivel.1104GALOW nearby waters, while Trput Lake affords plenty of, small -mouth bass. Bon Echo, an out-of-the-way re- sort, is reached from Kaledar, On- tario, by automobile which passes along hillsides carpeted with blue flowers and seeming to emanate a blue haze. The Inn is located on a spit of land that separates the Ma-. zinaw Lakes, two lovely sheets of water. They are of great depth and from them rises a sheer rock to over 200 feet, possessed of a three -fold echo. It bears on one face a bas- relief of Walt Whitman, to whom the rock is dedicated. Bass fishing is good. There are two fine beaches; one of deep water that delights divers, and the other has a vast, sil- ver sandy floor with shallow water, and , makes a safe, ideal beach for women and children. Port au Baril on Georgian Bay, is unique in that its capacious rustic hotel is located on an island. Fish- ing, bathing and boating are its chief attractions. Georgian Bay with its thousands of islands and indented shore -line, is a paradise of beauty - and and sport, and is sought by many visitors from the States with sum- mer homes on the islands, Those who prefer the mainland, will find a string of summer resorts dotting the shore -line for 100 miles. men; others delight in sailing and paddling canoes. The summers are all too brief to satisfy these lovers of Ontario's out-of-doors. Camps hidden miles deep, away from the railway lines, yield excep- tionally good fishing and wholesome food. Such a one is Billy Burke's log camp on Trout Lake, reached by an 8-ndle launch ride from 'Paget station. Ka-Wig-A-Mog Lodge, hid- den away from civilization, is about 8 iniles frorn Pakesley, and transpor- tation is via the Key Valley Rail- way, owned by a Milwaukee lumber concern,, which operates a railway bus, mounted on railway car trucks, and fitted with a Ford motor for power. At the sawmill town, this mode of locomotion is exchanged for a motor launch that carries guests to Ka-Wig-A-Mog Lodge, an at- tractive structure devoted to dining arid social affairs. In addition to the Lodge, there are a number of cot- tages built about an eighth of a mile apart, on both sides of the long, narrow lele, thus insuring privacy. Mixed ishin is good here and in ovuute,;(7.he 9Zoaa , edlloN, e MAYBE IT IS TOO HOT FOR THE BABYs In the baby, the excess- a body heat is largely eliminated threulh the .;•,- • • • •• 4. 7. skin just tEe same as it is in the a-duft. Yet the baby is sometimes bundled up to an extent that the adult could not comfortably stand in warm weather. The inability to get rid of the ex- cessive body heat on account of too many clothes will, at least, make the baby uncomfortable. It may result in annoying irritation of the skin, Prick- ly heat is a common affection due to improper cooling of the sldn. And it is believed that retention of body heat is in part responsible for some of the serious 4summer diarrheas of infants. The usual reason for clothing the baby too heavily is fear that it will .-,:catch cold. Exposure to cold and chilling, are, of course, always to be avoided. But there is very little dan- ger of getting chilled &ring the hot weather. • Light Clothing A Need Clothing should be suitable for the weather and season. When the weather is hot, the clothing should be light enough to let out the body hc:at. Theie should be the least possible in- terfereece with the circulation of air near the skin. Movement of the air surrounding the baby is necessary for proper cooling. IIIIM•rene• Another thing that sometime$ makes the baby uncomfortable during the hot weather, is placing it on a very soft pillow or mattress. If these are so soft as to allow the baby to sink into them, there is considerable interference with the escape of heat from the body. The effect is the same as that produced by too much clothing. A baby thatis net givq-i a. chancel to lae7 comfortably cool during th summer cannot be blamed for being fretful and fussy.

Can you tell me of any- thing that would get rid of the uric acid that causes .the rheumatism? I have taken lots of medicine to get rid of the uric acid and have taken lots of mineral waters to get rid of it, but they don't do much good," Reply , In the first place rheumatism is not caused by uric acid.

MISS MCPHAIL'S FOOLISHNESS (Lucknoir Sentinel) Miss McPhail, M. P., is still a'gin the government and all its works. The mere fault-finder has an easy task, and usually bas little origin- ality or constructive ability. Mere fault-finders, on -occasion can make a great show of cleverness—that is when those who are doing things make mistakes as all who are active in the public or private business do. But -set the merely destructive critic to do something requiring initative and invariably he or she fails com- pletely. When the Government shortly be- fore prorogration proposed to appro- priate $400,000 to cover cadet train- ing, Miss McPhail M. P. nioved an amendment proposing to reduce the amount to one cent., and she availed herself of the opportunity to denoun- ce war as being "pagan" and un- christian. In alluding to the late war she said that even if Germany had not invaded Belgium, Britain would have found some other excuse for getting into the war. One can scarcely imagine any per- son with ordinary commonsense talk- ing such nonsense and expecting hearers to take it seriously. But it illustrates the utter inability of Miss McPhail and others of her type to think soundly upon anything. Few are 'so foolish as not to recognize that war for war's sake is the greatest madness; but what about a defensive war? When the German army in- vaded Belgium the people of that country had no choice between fight- ing and submitting to a large meas- ure of enslavement. The French were in the same position, and Brit- ain had either to get into the war or go back on its pledged word, besides exposing itself to an all -conquering Germany on the south side of the Channel. In the face of these obvious Tacts, Miss McPhail, persists in re- garding all the nations who were at war as being actuated by the one mot- ive—indulging in war as a sort of game .or contest indulged as a sort of Pastime.
