Mattasva town is in Nipissing, the

more ideal site for a town you rare-

ally but empbatically from the edge
of the Ottawa and offera town
site that has all the advantages of
drainage, beauty and picturesque-
ness. On the Quebec side, bold rocky
bluffs rise to the height of a couple
a hundred feet and frorn the top of
these the climber can see a large
portion of the land on the Ontario
side and a. magnificent view of the;
Ottawa Aver. Champlain was the.
first white man who saw this plane.

The Inside Inn on the grounds,
where we were located duiring our
visit is a feature worth seeing. It
is certainly a tribute to Axnerican
enterprise and American progres-
siveness, a true example a the Am-
eric,an ambition to do something'
bigger than has previously been
done. The. building, erected on the
aide of a h ill, is two stories in front

The St. Louis Exposition (and to

Since my return I have oftea
been asked if people are eyeeeinata
ically robbed. That, is rather it hard
question to answer, I did not ex-
perience any of it, We had, as it
press party, speeial rates at the
hotel and I did not feel that we were
paying any -too much under the eir-
curostances. At th/i- Inside Inn the
rates vary from $3 to $7 a day tte-
cording to room, ole. But then
there are plenty of other places
where good accommodation can be
got at much lower rates. Natural-
ly. the people want to make all the
money they can, but you need not
be "bled" unless you wish. Al-
though ir you prefer riding in a
hack to the electric ears, or take
a wheel chair in preference to ;walk-
