In movies and novels, that title means that a man, or woman, falls in love in the fall of his or her life.. It has a sweet, nostalgic note, with a touch of sadness in it. But I've had a September Affair since 1 was a sprout. Every year, I fall In love with the month of September. And It is sweet and nostalgic and a little sad. And achingly beautiful, As a tyke, it meant coming home from two months of wild, free running about at the cottage, one of a big family. We were sun -burned and bramble•scratched and just a couple of jumps ahead of the gopher or the ground•hog, socially, What a thrill to be home! Flip a light -switch, flush a toilet, in the 'big, old house with the high ceilings and cool rooms, after eight weeks of grubbing it. And then, the magic of modern living rediscovered, it was out into the streets to find the "kids" and race around in the glorious September evenings, playing Run, Sheep Run, and Redlight 'and Ilide and Seek. Mothers called, but nobody came. It was the first fascin- ation with the September Affair, Our mothers seemed to sense it and let us have a last fling before life became serious and autumn dimmed the lamps, As a teenager, working five hundred miles from home in September, 1 had my Affair. There was a churning yearning to get back to school, friends, football and the interrupted romance with the brown -eyed girl. 'It almost hurt physically. As a youth, there was the headiness and tension of going off to College, a big 'ward, in September, A strange and frightening place. A small-town boy in a big puddle. New people, New man- ners. New everything. A September Affair, And at college, first year, there was the wrenching affair with a South' American wench, Sylvia: We met by chance and it was wrenching because she had to go back to Rio in four weeks. and 1 was really gone, and I knew I'd never see her again, and we wandered in the soft, September dusk, hands clutched, and my heart turned over in its grave. Then came the war years and there were a few memorable Septembers, One on the Niagara Peninsula, with the grapes and peaches lush, and the thrill of knowing I had passed ,elementary flying school and could put the white "flash" of a pilot in my cap. One in England, hot and hazy and languorous .after a cold, wet summer. And the weekend leave in London, twenty years old and a pretty girl on your arm and death lurking in the wings, and caring not. Too fast it went. One in Normandy and jump to Lille, and jump to Antwerp and life every day on a tenuous, white-hot wire, and the beautiful weather and the terrible daily disappearance of Paddy and Mae and Taffy and Dingle 13e11 and Nick and Freddy. Ind that long, hot September of 1945. done, Alive. lin. real, Really unreal: the family,, the places, the peace, the boredom, and then the silly young people back at the university, But the September Affair with the trees and the cool blue sky and the long dark hair and yet another pair of brown eyes, browner than ever. And the next September.Marriage to the brown•cyes and a wonderful week at the old cottage in Quebec, with this strange woman. Canoeing and swimming and me teaching her how to cook, And she's just as strange today, twenty-two years later. And just a.; brown•eyed. And a lot of Septembers since, golden and blue, with the last breath of summer in the green trees and the first kiss of fall in the cool nights, and the magic that makes me fall for the ripe harms of that ripe lady of the year, September, oozing with pleni• Inde, gorged with the fruits of summer „yet wakening with a sigh to the brisk business ahead, I have a bad crush on the lady.

The Concentration Camp Con. vention is over, it was the dirti• est convention, filled with brutal• ity, that has ever been held in the history of the United States of America, Press, Radio and TV newsmen were astounded at the gross dis- respect they received from the de. legates, convention officials and security men, Viewers were shocked. 1 could• n't believe it when CBS newsman Dan Rather, was beaten by seeur• ity men on the floor of the con. vention. He fell to the floor after being struck in the stomach and in the back, A minute or so later he was upright explaining to an• chor man Walter Cronkite and the milllions of viewers what had hap. pened, Violence was prevalent in the city itself as well as outside and inside the convention hall, Cronkite said he was "disgust• ed" with the Rather incident, He also said it was apparent that the convention officials "don't want us to see it." In 5 days, 24 newsmen were beaten, Chicago police used tear• gas freely, Machine guns were put into service. A couple of weeks ago I wrote that the Republicans had chosen a loser by selecting Richard Nix- on. It makes little difference who wins in November. The Amer'. can Society has lost respect and prestige throughout the world. It's very possible that Humph• rey or Nixon could be assessing - ed before the election. Then what? i ulili!

Exodus 33: 14, One of the most precious treasures of the child of God is the daily Presence of the Lord, To •experience the comfort, strength, and peace which 1Ie alone can give is to have Joy beyond description, What does It mean to His children to have His Presence constantly? It means that when He puts forth IIis own sheep He goeth before then:. No believe►, need fear what tomorrow will bring for Christ will walk the steps before him, preparing the way, No sor- row or trial can come without first passing the gentle Savior, And ife whose heart is kind beyond all measure will give to each day what He thinks best, And as Ills Presence goes before, it graciously follows after. Who can measure the comfort of the words of 'Isaiah 52: 12? "The God of Israel will be your reward," Only Christ can close the door to the regretted past and ease the guilty conseience. It is IIe who blots the record and mercifully forgives and then forgets, i"Iis Presence is underneath, ever bearing His child along, sustaining and keeping him. What a comfort to the weary is the promise, "11110 eternal God is thy refuge and underneath are the everlasting arms." His Presence is 'above covering as a canopy the weak and helpless, for "he that dwelleth in the secret, place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty," His Presence goes along side, for He has said, "I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, fear not," To the sick at heart and lonely, the companionship of the Friend who is "closer than a brother is sweet indeed! And finally, His Presence dwells within, making it. possible to overcome temptation. (Galatians 5: 10).

L, THE NATIONAL SCENE i y Raymond Canon 1''ALL FAIRS '!'his is the time of the fall fair in Southern Ontario and almost every town and village of any size seems to have anywhere from a clay to a week dedicated to a fair with midway and displays of all kinds. '1'he kids are often given time off from school to attend, and it is a tragedy indeed when any child has to miss the fair for any reason whatsoever, Fairs seem to be 'associated with children all over, and In Europe no less than in Canada. No matter where you go on the continent you will see the children having a wond'ertul time, They may not have as great a choice of things to do as children in North America but (hey certainly enjoy what they have as much as any Canadian girl or boy. The one big difference between many of the smaller fairs in Europe and- those in Canada is the. selling which goes on over there. In Europe the fair is often the occasion when the family can stock up on essentials. Shoes, clothing's, books, well, yeti name it and they sell it, A fancily may buy enough to last for an entire year for there are always bargains to be had, and the air is filled with haggling all day long, Those who are more literary minded can buy all sorts of books, and at many fairs there is .literally something for everybody in the reading line. Such fairs were first started back in ancient times, and surprisingly enough one of the oldest fairs In existancc today 1s that of Nichni•Novgor'ocl (now called Gorky) In Russia, When many of these fairs were first started, they were basically for trade pur• poses, and most of the large fairs in Europe today are trade fairs, in contras! with the Canadian National Exhibition. It was only in the 17th. century that the pleasure fair, which had existed side by side with the trade fair from the beginning, began to play a major role in many areas. By the 19th, century many fairs had almost com- pletely lost their importance as a trade fair, and became almost en• tirely an amusement park. One of my most traumatic experiences concerns fairs and since it has its amusing side 1'11, tell you about it. The fair in St. Gall, Switierland, literally had no: place to go .when 1 .was living there, so they held it on a street and a square not far from the dawn -town arca, 1 don't know which of the Swiss gods I offended, but as I was passing through one of the large temporary buildings alter the fair was over, the whole thing suddenly collapsed on me. 1t took the workmen a couple of hours to dig me out, Fortunately for me, I was out cold all during this digging, and didn't come to until I was being examined in the hospital. The doctor was astound• e:1 to find not one bone broken . just a slight concussion, several contusions and a partially crushed vertebrae, Well, as you can see, 1 survived, in fact, I recovered fully from it but for some time I had to wear a cast from my hips to my armpits. Imagine that on a hot day! The kids at school used to take turns pushing a ruler up and down my back the itch became unbearable. I played hockey with the cast on, although none of the opposition teams knew it. When anything hit the cast, which was concealed tinder the sweater, there was always great' amazement on the part of the opposing players as to why my chest always made a dull thud. But back to fairs, One of the biggest annual fairs in the world is the Canadian National Exhibition, but if you are tired of see• ing that and would like to do something different for a little while, lot me suggest soth6U ins, If you are interested at all in machines, try going to Blyth, ontnrio, on September 6 or 7. What they, have there is not exactly a fair, but rather an exhibition. You can see all types of old steam engines in operation or on display. Many of these machines were used to run the threshers during the fall . Harvesting. Blyth is a village a few miles south of Wingham, but they haven't lel diet' smallness restrict their thinking. It engines appeal to you at all, I know you'd enjoy it. There are other things to do as well, bttt the Steam engines are the main display. Pm pleased people still take time to retain aomh of the things we knew as chilch'en, but have been all but lost to the younger generation, l!�!!1111►IIJ'II!II!!!IGiiIVilillli!Illll!il!IIII►!I!i!IIIUi!!I►911!!11!1►(�!'
