This crossing, which 'hasATen known to be as choppy as the English Channel, ...was as smooth as glass on the day we cut our way through the Atlantic Ocean to the "Gar, den of the Gulf". I was 'perhaps the most ex, cited passenger aboard the ferry for I had 'that nostalgic thrill one usually experiences when returning to the scenes of ones childhood. Before my teens we lived in Summerside and these days of idyllic sum- mers .and excruciatingly cold winters had made an indelible impression on the mind of a young child, Red clay roads, like the bright hair ribbons of a little girl, wound away from the highway as 'the stream of cars left the ferry and, started at full speed for .Charlottetown. One of my memories of P.E.I. was the fight an uncle of mine, along with other Islanders, put up in the first quarter of this century to keep motor oars off "The Island". Now our CN Maple Leaf package tour rol- led over paved roads expressly laid to accommodate that devil of inventions, 'the homeless carriage, Before the white man farm- ed this agricultural gem, Mic- mac Indians, closely related to the peaceful Algonquins, used to canoe across the strait 'to HIGHEST CASH PRICES PAID FOR Goose Feathers Duck Feathers Feather Ticks LOUIS WAXMAN Brussels, Ontario Write to Box 119 42-3-4-5b spend the summer hunting and fishing. The island abounded in partridge, grouse and musk, rat while clams and oystem could be fished without much effort from the rich clay of off shore breeding beds, In the winter, the Micraacs returned to the main land where there was more protection from the cruel blasts of inclement storms. When we lived in Summerside these Indians. were year round residents. Grandmotherly Intrigue I had a grandmother who enjoyed shocking us children. One of her favorite stories was the one about squaw Rosie's single tooth. Rosie washed our clothes, scrubbed our floors and during the berry season supplied' us with heaping hand woven baskets full of wild strawberries, I never ate them again after my grandmother told. me Rosie hulled the ber- ries with that yellow stump of a tooth. Now, from the vant- age of my years, I realize Grandma had a smart way of keeping children's fingers out of the berries she intended to preserve. The red earth reminded one of another childhood memory. We were three quite normal chil- dren, or perhaps a little more mischievous than most, At any rate on one hot summer day we had tried our mother's pat- ience beyond endurance. She chastized us 'two older children and put us to bed without any supper. just as the sun set the pangs of hunger gnawed at our innards. My brother slid down the uprights of the back porch, dug artichokes from the garden with his bare hands, and returned' to our bedroom his shirt bulging with loot, We devoured those raw arti- chokes with such relish we drooled red muddy stains all over our impish little faces and mother's snowy white sheets. When she came to forgive us with a contrite heart we were sound asleep and looking ser- aphic and satisfied. She never Put us to bed again without any supper. As we drove along our route there were gabled farm hous- es, exact replicas of my child- hood home as I remembered it. It seemed to me the island hadn't changed too much in these many years. True there *were some homes with new picture windows, bright asphalt shingled roofs here and thetr.e;° or perhaps that daring inrrava-4 tion, an attached garage,- but for the most part time might almost have stood still through two great wars and their after- math. This island reminded •me of that famous fictional charac- ter, Mrs. Moon, who remained beautiful and ageless while all .around her limo .marched cot When we arrived in Char, lottotown it was a different picture, .After dinner in the Cli's Hotel Charlottetown we• ventured down 'the main Street, • It was Saturday night and somehow I glowed with the experience of bucking crowds in the five .and dime store, having to walk off the curb to get around groups of laugh- ing, happy neighbors greeting one ,another like long lost friends, This was a joyous ex- perience for those of us who are ridden by the present clay practice of shopping on any night from Wednesday to Fri- day in supermarkets where we seldom. see a familiar face. think the world might find that illusive lasting peace if we again inaugurated one night a week shopping in all villages and towns. Summerside was not includ- ed in our itinerary but our Nova Scotia Guided Tours driv- er realized what it might mean to me and one of the nurses in our oar to visit this town. Her mother had been 'born there and of course I wanted' to turn back the clock, if only for an hour, Store Hasn't Changed The main street hadn't changed. There was Holman's store where my mother, with the small hand of each dangh, ter in hers used to go shop- ping, walking down the aisles and greeting the clerks with ,a She was usually bent on purehasing "ruching," a white pleated organdy trim 'that we sewed into the high necks of our woollen dresses each Saturday morning to be ready for church the next day, The smaller shops that lined the street on either side may have changed hands over the years, but not their facades, I think our driver believed me a bit stupid, for though he drove up one street and down the other I couldn't for the life of me definitely identify any one of the lovely old wooden homes as having been the one in which we resided. When, on my return home, I tried to describe the house as I remem- bered it, my 85-year-old mo- ther said gently, "Dear, it was only a little house, not one of those three storey mansions you envisioned." I can report my dream is still intact. Even now I can still smell the cab- webs in the attic and the bar- rels of oysters and apples that used to stock our cellar each winter. Summerside is a prec- ious part of my childhood and lost nothing in memory by my attempted return to yesterday. Kipper East WI Hears Bill. Strong Talk On Trip (t1ensall Correspondent) William Strong, Seaforth, president of Huron County Junior Farmers and past presi- dent of Seaforth junior Farm- ers, was guest speaker at the October meeting of Kipper East Women's Institute in SS 10, Tuckerstnith, October 18., showing slides and a commen- tary of his trip out west this summer, slides of local tures and pictures of a soil ex- cursion in •the Blenheim area. Mr. Strong won the trip out west through his achievement in 4-1-1 club work, He was in- troduced by Mrs. Campbell Eyre and thanked by Mrs. Ro- bent Bell. Roll call was an- swered by reading a clipping of agricultural interest, and the motto, "The love of the land is a love that lies deep 'in 'the breast of man," was given by Mrs. R. Gernmell. Reports of Huron County rally hel dat Egmondville was submitted by Mrs. William, Kyle, and of London area eon-. vention by Mrs. Harry Cald- well and Mrs. Alex McGregor. Plans were laid for a draw on a Christmas cake for which tickets will be sold; a euchre and dance December 15 and family night in November. A quartette composed of Mrs. William Kyle, Mrs. Ken Mc- Kay, Mrs, Howard Finkbeiner and Mm, Bruce McGregor, with Mrs. Ross 'Broadfoot at the piano sang two lovely numbers. Mrs. W, J. F. Bell gave the courtesy remarks. President Mrs, James Drummond presid- ed for the business, and Mrs. Campbell Eyre for the pro- gram. Hostesses were Mrs, Camp- bell Eyre and Mrs. Robert Bell. Lovely autumn flowers decor- ated the school rooms. Lunch- eon was 'served by Mrs. J. Los- tell, Mrs. James MacNaughton, Mrs. Ross Chapman and Mrs. Winston Workman. Seeing should' spell safety. The road risk goes up when the sun goes down, says the Ontario Safety League. Driving becomes more dangerous when the days are short mid hours of darkness long.
