excitement and beauty of distant
lands.
Travel enriches the mind. It
probably has an adverse effect on
the wallet, though.
By visiting other proVinces and
other lands, we view lifestyles
that differ from ours. We become
acquainted with a variety of
people and we understand their
problems. Travel teaches lessons
in geography. history. foreign
languages and human relations
more efficiently than any book.
Our modern methods of travel
—jets, ocean liners, trains, buses
and cars — provide fast, efficient
and varied service. If we fly to
another country, we can rent a
car. for transportation while
we're there. Bus tours. which are
gaining popularity, prearrange
our transportation. ac-
commodation and sightseeing.
The weather no longer dictates
our movements. We escape
Canada's winter and loll on sandy
beaches in Florida, Australia or
the Caribbean.
When it's summertime in
Canada. we hop a jet. and in a
matter of hours, we view the
snowy peaks of the Swiss Alps.
We, who haven't sprouted our
wings yet, take heart in knowing
Southwestern Ontario boasts
some unique sights of its own. If
wheels are accessible to us, we
pursue interesting "mini trips."
A few minutes or a few hours
drive offers beautiful countryside
and modern cities. lakes,
provincial parks and privately
owned camping grounds, a
variety of eating-places. large
and small fairs, wildlife sanc-
tuaries, historical landmarks and
museums.
A well-publicized exhibition in
this area, for example. is the
Pioneer Museum in Goderich.
The drive consumes about a half-
hour, but the visit carries us back
through the years to the turn of
the century. For hours, we can
wander through the simulated
general store, blacksmith's shop,
chapel and the rooms of a pioneer
house. The clothes, dishes and
furniture of several eras as well
as vintage cars and buggies are
displayed.
Entertainment also abounds in
Southwestern Ontario. Local
groups perform amateur theatre.
Outdoor productions add a new
demension to the plays. Mean-
while the pageantry of the
Shakespearean Festival con-
tinues nearby.
For the past two weeks, the
CNE in Toronto has provided
entertainment and pavilions with
an international emphasis. .
Locally the fall fairs now
highlight our bulletin boards. A
visit to one of these events
reveals what "small town
Canada" means.
While touring Southwestern.
Ontario, we encounter small town
hospitality and the bustling ex-
citement of large centres. We
often mingle with the tourists and
learn about their distant homes.
At the same time, we discover
fascinating parts of our own
country.
We sometimes envy a person as
he relates his adventures abroad.
If we delve into our own territory,
however, we may be surprised by
the unique qualities we find.
A long journey may be
memorable but a short trip can
also prove rewarding. Both types
of travel enrich the mind.
