Deachman) Where is Metis Beach? ..Go down to Montreal, take a train for the Maritimes, stay with it until it reach- es Mont Joli. This is the most north- erly point on the Canadian National route to the Martimes. The railway then turn south and hurries on to Halifax. Change now arid take a cannecting railway, one that you nev- er heard about before. It is called' the Canada and Gulf Terminal Rail- way. it has more letters in lig name than the C.N.R. from which it sprouts but less than one-seventh of ene per cent, of fte mileage. There are ten Ladies' Tailored -to -Measure COATS. 3j If you are over average height or hard to fit, come into the Men's Department and leave your measure for a man -tailored coat in the cloth, /color and style of your choosing. We warn customers, nowever, that deliveries of these Boats will take from six • to eight "weeks, so you should order at once. TAILORED COATS ARE PRICED AT 29 .50`0 65 °°. tewart Bros. Seaton stations on the line, five of 'hem .flag stations. It takes an hour and ten minutes to cover' the' wh)le distance. Step off at Metis Beach—it's only 10 miles from Mont Joli, take the bus to the town, it's too far to walk and car- ry your bags. I want to show you the town; it's new and it's different. Remember now we are on the south bank of the St. Lawrence, the main street faces the river. This is the Gulf of the St. Lawrence; please do not think of it as an ordinary river. The tide comes in as if this Were the shore of the Atlantic. The weather is as clear as it possibly can be, a strong west wind is blowing and there is not a speck of dust or mist to hide the view, but you cannot see the other shore. Straight nortb I am told it is sixty miles away. Turn east of north and if your vision car- ried it would strike tire -entrance of the Saguenay. Now you know the lo- cation, let's look at the .town. There are five good hotels here— they do a tourist business. People come here to drink in the air; there's plenty of it. They rest, they sleep, they sun themselves and get tanned; they play golf. They gaze lazily at the passing ships and grow young again. They stretch their bare limbs in the sun or pile sand on them and scatter it again. They laugh, talk, 'chat and rest their souls—minds, like fields, grow richer if left fallow for a time. Two gulls this morning were trying, to fiy, e��ainst the wind. They went upstat4,-.as the airmen some- times say, and searched for pockets. in the upper strata through which they • could work their way. Then came down to three feet above the waves and made faster 'progress. There are times when it pays to take the easier way. There is a mystic satisfaction In simple things. I was in Metis thir- teen'years ago and always wanted to go back. People return again and again, some for one reason, some for another. I spoke one morning to a business man from New York. "I come up here every year," he said, "to get rid of my bay fever; I am allergic to ragwood, Jersey and Pennsylvania are full of it. When you go through smoke," he said, "your eyes water—when you pass out of ,the smoke they cease to water. .When I breathe the pollen of rag- weed I suffer from hay feve} there is no ragweed here. I get irdtter and stay here until the hay fever season is over and then go home." It's a happlr !pat for little Children. They lie in the sand, paddle i9 the pools left by the outgoing tide' and take on a tan which will last them for many a day. These children are well trained. I mentioned thin to a business man from Quebec city.' He was English born but had lived in Quebec fortwenty-five years. "Oh, yes," he answered, "family life" is closer in Quebec, more intimate. They may marry earlier, they ma,y leave the home nest earlier, but they return more often. Fathers and mothers are very important people in the lives of young business men in the Province of Quebec." Some people seem to think they must know French to travel in Que- bec. This of course is absurd; they all s;ieak a little English and a touch of French adds piquancy and charm. A smile will take you any place to- day. I asked a waitress in the hotel one day where she learned • English. "From my girl friend," she replied. "Could your girl friend speak French?" I asked. She shook her head. "How did you learn to speak, English?" I queried. "My girl friend' pointed to objects and named them; I followed and did the same," was her answyer. That its an old method. Rob- inson Cru'soe used it with his man Friday g;Cnerations ago; it still works. It would hardly be fair to close these remarks without a word about the farmers of Gaspe. They look prosperous, the houses and barns car- ry more paint than they do in On- tario; the season is short but the growth is tapir. Everything seems to come at once. I was on a farm a few 'days ago where the hay, wheat, oats, barley and peas were ripe. I picked raspberries along the roadside on the way home and had fresh cher- ry pie for dinner. It is a lovely land, quiet, restful. I like to hear the waves lapping on the shore, the fog horns sounding through the alight, to look at things which are different and people who are not quite the same. Besides, it is delightful to loaf and rest and feel for once that hurry isn't everything, and that something - we need amoment or two for quiet thought. * * * It was' the hottest day this summer A four-year-old boy was strutting around a lawn,. no clothes save a -. short ,sarong. . Down thlstreet came another boy fully dressed. He looke1 at the vision before him, shook Lia finger and said: "Where's your batt"' FALL FAIR DATES Dates for the numerous fall faint to be held in Ontario this year have, been announced by the Agricultural Societies' Branch, Ontario Depart- ment epartment of Agriculture.
