UX GLEBANAQQQQ- Paquette Rapids provide the canoeist with a real thrill-four miles of continuous rapids in which all you have to do is steer and watch the shores flash by. Below this fast water the river opens out into one of the most picturesque lakes in its course, Lake Coulonge. Surrounded by the Lauren- tians it makes an ideal place for a holiday. Further down lie the towns of Fort Coulonge and La Passe, the river narrowing and follow- ing two channels around Calumet Island. As the rapids of the Rocher Fondu channel to the northwest are impossible to negotiate, we took the other course, past Campbell's Bay to Bryson, where a 12-mile stretch of continuous rapids forced us to halt for that day. A For a real thrill you should try sleeping in a hay-loft full of field mice. Such was our experience here. Early next day we portaged around the Calumet dam, negotiating the hundred-foot dro without misha . The next twelve miles P P . . proved the most trying of the whole trip. Ra id after ra id ke t us continuall on the P l P ,P , Y alert to avoid upsetting in the turbulent cur- -QAEPALERE FLAMMAM 1'CI1t. Constables dragging the river-bed for two victims of the treacherous waters did not add to our peace of mind, and it was with a feeling of relief that we reached Portage-du- Fort. Entering smoother water, we camped and were early to bed. From here the river continued through the Chenaux rapids into Lake Chats where a favourable wind aided us down the thirty-mile stretch of open water past Norway Bay and Arnprior to the Hydro Dam above Fitzroy. Another hard portage set us down once more on the Lower Ottawa and on one of the small islands below the falls, we took advantage of the comforts of a small cottage to rest up before the final lap home. The paddle down Lake Deschenes ended our adventures. We arrived at Britannia Bay, tanned and in the best of health-happy to have achieved all we had set out to do. Many beautiful memories of moonlit waters and enchanting scenery will ever linger with us, and full of praise for all we had seen, were- called that immortal line of Scottis, This is my own my native land.

UX GLEBANAGXQKQ- CAFETER RASH, BANG, helter skelter, y they come. In a moment the GEORG A cafeteria is filled with a ravenous throng of laughing, empty boys. VV ith a sigh of reluctance, the waitresses take up their positions, knowing well what is to come. Trays, forks, spoons and knives produce an arousing African melody as they are grabbed. Ten-cent hash Cjust like mother used to makej thrown together in an indistinguishable man- ner, finds a place in empty stomachs. Soup- and what soup-is snatched by the hurrying multitude. In an impatient bread-line each waits his turn. Hot dogs and bottles of milk, for the I110St part, are consumed before the pay- box is reached. Some who have devoured their red-hots hastily wipe the remains, including mustard or catsup and crumbs, from their faces, then show the milk, pay a nickle-and get away with it. Accidents happen incessantly. A luckless chap, pushed by the jostling crowd, sprawls upon the fioor amid a clatter of broken dishes and lost victuals. The superintendent, with a baleful eye, pushes herself through the jam and with a grim request thrusts a mop into the victim's unwilling hands. Finally, with an experience which puts Christmas shopping to shame, you are through the ordeal. Now begins the frantic search for a seat. Full-mouthed gluttons impolitely decline to offer any assistance. Wildly you hunt among E QHQALERE FLAMMAM IA RUSH the feeding multitude. Ah- at last a ray of hope - a ' measly ' space between broad convulsive backs. Then, if you value your home-training, there is no room for protruding elbows. Hurriedly you eat. Soon boys will be doing home-work, and who wishes to devour food mixed with ink? Quite unconsciously you find yourself taking a bite of your neighbour's sandwich. Punctuating the general noise and revelry, merrily the cash-register clicks, and still the bread-line only thins. Sweetly-too sweetly-a boy entreats for the removal of your feet from his shoes, and woefully re- gards the mar on his brilliant shine. Empty milk bottles, left there by boys too shy to walk among the ranks of scrutinizing girls to return them to their proper places, dot the landscape. McLEAN 3-B Amid the turmoil and confusion, stalks the bouncer, an I dare you attitude in his whole being. With measured steps, he makes his round, ordering boys, usually small, and gently asking girls to be sure to throw the remains of their meal into the refuse tin. Eagerly he anticipates his reward. The teachers, of course, aloof from the pupils, gaze disdainfully at the chattering mob. Small boys, because they fill up faster, leave first and engage in an hilarious game of tag in order to digest their food. Finally, with an air of immense satisfaction emanating from your whole person, you leave.
