'stone steps several- dozen tines a
day! Oar roams awe on
s'the rez-de-
chousee (that's, the ground floor)
with big windows and es front annd
side balcony; can't you picture us at
breakfast, gazing out over this Swiss
fairyland with its hazy Snowy 'noun -
tains and the bright eiparkling Water,
like a blue jewel. Our travelling an
the 'Continent is rye ,.. ' :' done with
one foot on the prov
skin. In the first pia

the crazy
femmtle-'de-clhamlbre let us sleep in at

station when we disco'c7•,ered, to tour
horror, that one., valuable piece of
luggage Was conspieuouti by its abs-
ence. !ff I . were a .)nrore fluent
Frenchman, I should certainly have
given that porteour a .piece of my
mind: However, the trip itself was
almipie compensation, as we climbed
up and up to view an 4y*er-changing
array of lakes and st .,auntainsides.
the latter 'covered with multitudinous
grape vines. Incidentally, we were
nearly lett ibethind; hag and baggage,
at Zn eisse•man, for the perfectly good
zesepo'n that our French still isn't
sharp enough to 'enable us to pick
up such a babble of instructions.
Friday afternoon, we walked all a-
long the quai to the Craatle of Chilton,
which Byron immortalized , :-. ih his
poem, "The Prisoner of Chinon." It
was just too li'v'ely; though much of
it has :necessarily been restored, the
old crypt is there with its huge pil-
lars, on one of which Byron scratch-
ed his name•, as well as the under-
ground passages, with..exits on the
lake level, so that the !bodied of the
tdrtured victims could he readily dis-
pos'ed of: As it was .quite a warm
day our bathing suits came in very
!handy so that we 'enjoyed a most de-
licious swim at the Montreux Plage.
Tutus time we at,
„,,'o�ttoo climb on
top of that elusive •fl'e.. i ng ball, and
nearly made • ourselves' seasick.
'Saturday was a never -to -be -forgot-
ten day! Getting op at 6.30 a.m., we
'd're'ssed and had ibrera.kfast and got
into quite a luxur'iou.s coach for the
Grand St. Bernard, famous for its
Hospice and the big St. Bernard
dogs. The drive was ideal, through
the fertile Rhone Valley with its
sweet quaint villages. All along the
way we followed the old Roman road,
travelled, by Napoleon, on his march
into. Italy. 'The St. Bernard Pass 'is
the 'only gateway into Italy. 1 could
visualize the .• shrivelled corporal at
the head of his ghastly ranks. We
climbed 8,000 feet to get to the Hes
-
pi'ce by noon. Perhaps I should tell
you a little bit about this famous in_.
.s'bi'tution: It was founded by St.
Bernard away back in the middle
ages to carry out a sort of mountain
miissionar;y work. The monks send
the dogs out to find last inountain'eers
and anybody can stay at the Hospice,
on its bounty, as long as is neces-
sary. Theisen was intense, but was
it cold? The snow and the Alpine
flowers seem to get along very well,
because we had a great time pitching
'snowballs at one another and then
turning around., to pick pansies or
ageless. lin order to view the ` St.
Bernard rruonnmitent, we had to have
our passports stamped at the queer
litfile pill -box to cross over into Italy.
Saturday night we watched the fire-
works and wound up in great style
at Le F3aviIlon des Sports.
S'h'opping in Montreux is both heart
breaking and purse -breaking. The
shawls and Swiss embroidery are
most intriguing. How on earth do
,those women ever see to work those
fine patterns? Soiwe of the shops
have these women in native costumes,
sitting• outside at their embroidery
frames for adlv'e•rbissing purposes. It
erams'to .be a matter of national con-
cern to he neat and dainty. .
To-'m'orrow we leave by 'boat for
Geneva. ir'Inu quite looking forwar.1
to my visit there, partly Iheeause I
shall have an oppoltunity of inspect-
ing for myself the world famous
L'e'ague of N'atinns headquarters. On
the gay ,to 'Geneve, we dock atef aus-
anne-won't it‘ he perfectly thrilling
to be actually on the spot of the
World Disarrfia'ment 'Conference? I
db hope it will be a fine day, because
the trip down the Lake of Geneva is
reputed to he one of the Swiss trea-
sure's, No'w I must b'e off and dress

Dear Sir:
'May I. through the columns of
your pacer, and on behalf of the
Beaver Hockey Club, thank the
business men and others who so
generously contributed to the ex-
pense fund of the Club:
The money that was thus rais-
ed has enabled the club to pur-
chase some much needed equip-
ment and will make it possible
for the team to enter the sche-
dule unhampered by debt. '
May I also thank the Board of•••

for their kindness in allowing
the club the use of the gymnas-
ium at the school.
Yours Very truly,
