THESE are just a few pictures "taken in Quebec. It is
not without reason j;hat this province is becoming the
tourist resort of the continent, for here is a country of
utmost fascination and intrigue. Quebec has an at-
mosphere all its own and, if it can be said, more of an old-
world atmosphere than has the old-world of today.
Quebec is the eighteenth century keeping pace with -,;the'
twentieth,retaining yet et n ing its identity.
One stops at little 'wayside shrines. 7.'i e wooden
cross, the patron ennt 'in effigy, the nurtured flowers, the
woman at her distaff, the white -walled houses close at
hand transport you to the distant land from whence the
original settlers. carne. Yet, over there, beyond that
Tittle hedge or cedar fence the farmer gathers in his
crop with up-to-date machinery, and stores it in a n iodern
barn. Behind, the hum of .the telegraph wire reminds
you that you are not living in a by -gone day and, if that
is not enough, through the, not too distant fields, a huge
''train thunders.
Near the white wane the lady of the house draws
Water from the old-fashioned well, and bakes her bread
in an old brick oven, the like of which was used by her
ancestors in France four centuries ago. She spins her
own wool and shares with her husband a faith which
though not old-fashioned, is almost as old as the Christian`
era. A kindly hospitable -soul is she, nor is she always
backward in'learning, for she probably attended the
convent of the Ursulines at Quebec, or is petite ecole at
Louiseville. And her husband—He maybe content
to wear the homespun, to sit around the fire, or on the
threshold at night, to smoke his "Rouge Quesnel" and to
drive five miles to church early on all holidays in his
buggy or in the straw lined cart' that is used about the
farm, but he "knows his letters" and, better still, he
knows how to
w farm,
The Quebec farm is usually up-to-date. 'hour

You sit with him and talk you will see that he gets the.

happy if he can re -tell the story of the big moose he shot
by "Lac Saint Pierre" and the hear.' `'He is some trapper
too, "for sure I catch him lots of skin, me!"
The "old mail, "old old woman" and that large, very
largo family, are content as seldom people arc, and rightly; •
so, for theirs is a rich heritage, ,and beautiful. The mighty
St, Lawrence and its thousand tributaries, the glorious
Laurentians, with their wooded slopes, the forests, lakest
and myriad streams give them a .country , almost un-,
excelled for beauty. Game and fish abound as has been
discovered by sportsmen from outside. Moose, trout;
maskinonge,the big black bass, bear, deer and caribous
From a historians point of view Quebec is the hunting,
ground ;of the continent. Quebec 'city is one : huge
souvenir of the early days of Canadian settlement. Lost
and re -captured several times: her old Walls still bear the
"'narks of storax, and the old cannons still guard the eity,
and the approaches to the citadel.
The history of Quebec is the history of Canada, priest
soldier and pioneer settler each having played a gloriou
part in the making of it. With the fair, Dominion as al
