This aquariun is quite' an attraction with wonderful displays of unusual live flak bothlarge and small. There .are, about 20 different kinds of marine fish, , about the same anther of 'varie'ties of fresh water Sat, 'about 40 different kinds of tropical fish, and the total number is .impassible to count. There is one sturgeon that has been there for over 50 years. The zoo has a large Collection' of live animals and birds. Blackpool is quite modern;, and has little to interest the antigt ar- ian. We did however visit some interesting old places . in the vicin- ity. Poulton-le-Fy!ide, only a few miles away #las an interesting ;,old church, and in the middle of 'the main street stands an old cross and the old, public stocks, Another day we took a '.bus to Manchester where there are many signs of bomb damage, and on to •Styall' which is a lovely olds, vil; lage,situated in a beautiful section of Cheshire. At 'Styall we. were guests of an aunt of Mr. John Freeman, pub- lisher of the Lakeshore News, of Pointe Claire. At Blackpool we were guests of three aunt (sisters of the late George Legge, of Gran- by), the eldest of whom celebrated her 90th birthday in July. They are all remarkably spry and accom- panied us to Poulton-le-Fyldre and on someother visits. 1Vliss May Legge visited Granby 40 years ago and has such vivid recollections of her trip that she was persuaded to write an account from memory which will shortly appear 'in The Leader -Mail. We only spent two days in Lon- don on one of 'which I met Mr. Vere MacHutchin and was his guest for lunch at the Savoy. In the lobby was Mr. Douglas Taylor, a past president of the Montreal Kiwanis Club, who was in England arranging for a visit of Canadian Air Cadets. After lunch we visited the Min- er Rubber Co. offices in London. They are located on Southwark St. and there is a splendid view from the roof of the building. St. Paul's Cathedral looms up not very far away and nearly everything be- tween has been flattened by Ger- man bombs, and many bombs fell all 'around the Miner building. Ev- ery window was broken and many of them have not yet been replac- ed due to the difficulty in getting glass - On the opposite side of the street before the war stood the Morgue, but that was completely demolish - e!• One of the first things to catch the eye upon entering the office was a catalogue of Miner goods which was printed in Granby at the Leader -Mail. There is a very fine display of Miner products in the show cases. Canadians visiting England find many of the signs and expressions strange to them. Here are a few: "No Waiting" (for "No Parking"); "Halt" (for "Stop" signs) ; "Left Luggage Room" over check rooms in station; "Enquiries" (for "Infor- mation"; "Diversion" instead of "Detour." One interesting sign in a tea room at Marlborough reads: "Per- sons bringing their own food will not be served," while there are many signs on vacant lots reading, "Tip No Rubbish," or "Tipping Rub- bish Here is Forbidden." An odd warning came over the loudspeakers in Crewe Station, "Train now ready to depart. Join the train, please." Probably our calls in Canada of "All Aboard" or "Up in Front, Please, En Acant s'il vows Plait" would sound Just as peculiar to strangers. In Eng -and, nearly all the bus drivers call out when the bus is ready to start, "Hold Tight," but it usually sounds like "All Tight." Before closing this series of art- icles I think I should make some Comment on the English govern- ment, and the way it is working, a$ from the large number of ques- tions I have been asked there is much interest in Canada on that subject. The government in England to- day is socialism to a degree that few Canadians can realize, and it Is gradually controlling everybody's life. My observations were formed from travelling around England and staying with people and talking w•Ith'them, and not from living in hotels and interviewing officials who naturally would try to paint a rosy picture. • - Actually, `I •did not find anyone who has a good Word to say for thegovernment, but it must be re- membered that such people did not vote for it in the first place, WANTED!

Thehgovernment debatest when I .was over there were- punned principally to the na- tionalizing of doctors and health services, and the abolition of capi- tal punishment. It eenaed to zne that 'soe,'ialisin there is bound' to fail, One reason is that', the',perple do not act• ,ns - they should ix theory': No i?ne 'seems 'to be anxious' to make saeld, flea (for the'good of the •state, but t e t instead they #ire only in oz ,sled in gettii' moremoney for do ��1es s. •Tll�e xray In which laborers are r' i wo lciri� ,ts',astgniah ng''to a Cana.- h e. ut- dla.l�Toe ftemse t e Ong n o ml pb p ting any heartinto their efforts, lVi'any firms and'industriee:are cotn- pelted not only ; fie sive time for afternoon tea, but also to furnish' the tfa, for which' they are allow- edospecial rattans, Employers have little or no con- trol over their :employees,;.,,.and woiiki not dare reprimand them for even flagrant 'carelessaness,. Aef" one man expressed it, "workers former- ly had• two incentives, 'first, to; im- prove theinifielveys,• and their ;post tion, and " second, to avoid being dismissed. Now both these incen- tives are gone." .. Another reason why the system does not work well is the way in which officials, of which there are no end, are not willing or able to' accept responsibility, but must tie everything up in red tape. ]wfatt,ia•uahviQ;.btiee mtsghisseav't3'deS- e ratanltpiluhg t ina.ng�tttitl itsoin thnerhue.',Levnead,onnwealatdr gA.arse o ye t.
