thought it might be a good way
to make a bit of money. Whether
or not it is successful as a money
making scheme, it has certainly
been successful in the interest it
aroused; Judging from the num
ber of people who were circu
lating, I should think it would . Ibe
a financial success too. .
I have, just asked John what
.interested him most . o. first,
the collection of war momentos,.
rifles, helmets, medals, ^etc;, etc.,
some very old Spanish pistols; -a
display which included bottled
rattlesnakes, and a baby alliga
tor,. Then there were a number,
of pieces of carved ivory/, from
walrus tusks, submitted by a
young ; meteorologist . who has
been serving in Baffin Land,
model boats and areoplanes.
\ Truth; to tell, none of these
things held my attention at all,
except the collection of, ivory. I

•There was a very interesting
collection of. 6jd things which in
cluded a broad axe, and it . really
was a broad axe, a bullet,mouldy
candle moulds, old “smoothing”1
irons and crimper, footwafmer,
an qld iron kettle which was
brought from Ireland 150 years
ago, and many, more things.
A collection " of about tiwerity..
varieties of the Ferns of Bruce,
and a. most interesting display «of
fossils/ proved very interesting,
as did an arrangement of Florida
sea shells, a great variety of beau
tiful shells, beautifully arranged.
There was a collection of about
25 dolls Of many lah^s, Scottish,
Dutch, Chinese, Japanese, - North
American Indian, etc.
Very clever th i ngs were dbne
with driftwood . there were
all sorts of birds, (none of which
.1 recognized!) some with long’
legs, some with long necks, some
with long bills, and 'some bits of
the driftwood were preserved be
cause of, their unusual shapes. I

some fine samples of smocking,
one of navy with smocking in

old pictures of townsfolk, long- -

to me, “Come and I’ll show you i
