In a case is the sash, of a deep • American Beauty shade, with the silver twist- lets ristlets and armlets which were worn by Rev, Henry P. Chase who was the hereditary chief! • of the Chippewa band of Indians near Coburg, These werevorn•'.by Rev. Chase on official oecassions when he was with his band of Indians.' The armlets and wristlets are deep bands of silver, the one worn just above the elbow and (the otherat the wrist.. (Another interesting bit of history which is recorded at the .Ar-• chives is an armlet which was -worn by an Indian, trade of a heavy-ni.et- al, and which was designed to carry scalps. A portion of a scalp is is the possession of , the Archives with the accomlianying armlet). On ;She ' wrist - lel; which belonged to Rev, Chase Was engraved the British coat of arms. In the same ease is a largesilver medal which was worn by his grand- father in the war of 1812 and a small silver medal presented Rev.

HIKE' FOR HEALTH Automobile. laziness . is the cause of one hundred time as many deaths annually as are caused by automo- bile accidents. The. automobile has made it possible for us to get, through life With hardly any exercise unless we are fortunate enough to be employed in some variety of man- ual, labour, . This has completely, changed our triode of living but not out diet; we still eat the sante qual- tities of rich heavy food customary fifty years ago. Easy and quick transportation at. any time by automobile should be one of our" chief blessings; to many it appears to be far from that, The medical profession has been aware for some time of the great increase of disease among the well-to-do. This situation has become so marked' that our great insurance companies are becoming seriously alarmed. Inves- tigation has shown that fully 00 per cent of the well-to-do members of our population 'have either un- dergone• an operation or are ,suffer- ing from same kind of disease, and the number of sudden deaths of ap- parently healthy people is increas- ing alarmingly. The `blame for all tliis is placed unhesitatingly upon the thoughtless use of the. automobile. To preserve his health man must exercise, The languid game of golf after sitting all day either in his office or auto- mobile has. proved but a •poor sub- stitute. Many try to replace exer- cise by fad foods and patent medi- eines, and thereby enrich many char- latans but benefit themselves; very little. We are clamouring for larger hospitals and more operating roma; we would be wiser to clamour for more parks and recreational areas where we may pleasantly, indulge in natural exercise. It rias .besone the fashion among the motoring public to drive through our parka as fast as the law allows and to agitate for extended roads hither and yon so that they may drive further from the beaten path. The motoring public of tomorrow will undoubtedly have different ideals; they will appreciate motor roads located through ,attractive districts with numerous parking places from which they nusy explore on foot the .beauties not to be seen from the road. They will be ani -°°ions to learn what is behind the hill. Now, the average motorist has ' but little to tell of his trip except his daily mileage record; then, the sub- ject of his .motor trips will be treat- ed by his friends with the discretion now used towards a postage stamp collector. Wlhen once•started on a description of the trip, photos, min- eral specimens and curios of many kinds will be produced, and the story of.the 'trip will be a long one full of plans for the exploration of other districts inthe future. There is no more delightful nor healthful way to spend a week -end than on a new trail. Popular books, plays and amusements are usually. "different." Nationat parks provide something different every few min- utes; the scenery, both in relation 'to light and shade and relative position,. is always.changing;, there is always the lure oft the unexpected just round the corner. Manyand varied are the objects :to -interest theobservant which will never be noticed by the long-distance hiker who, like the preSentday motorist, takes his pleas., ure from hie mileage records. Some of the world's richest mines have been passed =noticed by hundreds, before the man with the seeing •eye came along to sec, investigate,. and become the` envy of his leas obser- Jant fellows, ' ,An elderly clergyman was found wandering alone in the mountains of Colorado. Ile said that dining a serious illness' he realised'that in his lifelong ,study of the 'world to: come he lied seen very little of the 'world in' which'he' lived., His enjoyment of his surrohiithngs' was almost''path- I etie; he realised too late how much of the :beautiful in this Iife he had missed:.' [Various foreign governments care- fully foster physical culture either' in the forirn of citizens' military training camps, great .athletic meets, or Olympic 'games, in which thous- ands ofathletes annually take part. Walking has bscome'iery popular in, many European countries; The Germane Government were quick to grasp the significance of this. ' They have established shelters at suitable points of interest throughout their country which were patronized by ever twenty million hikers last year. Not ;only university students to whom„ a hike was a college week worth weeks of_college, but hosts of wage earners from' the large cities made "up their own parties of from half a • dozen to a hundred or more and had a most enjoyable ,holiday at slight expense, Obviously.tho scheme is of nation- al benefit. National health is -im- proved and patriotism fostered by broadening the vision and familiaris- ing the people with their beloved Fatherland: The most robust employee usually commands the best wages, but dur- ing slack times the weak ones are often- discharged, to possibly become a eharge on the city. National pros- perity is based on national 'health. Strong robust manhood and woman- hood isthe foundation on which a strong nation must rest. Canada has much beautiful scenery, ospee fatly in the autumn. Why not fam- iliarise ourselves . with our - own country by walking through it? Wlhy not set aside an annual hiking week, preferably during our Indian stunt- men, and" theft "let's go" on a hike of thanksgiving for our present health and gather a harvest of health for the future? —Canadian Parks Association Butte - ton.
