'QQ Jef s s- 33 AUtUmfl , By Tom Harcourt, XIIII-1 A soft wind sends the dry brown leaves rustling across the gravelled lane and sighs in the clving grasses. The air is filled with a soft golden light. The woods are silent seeming to wait, in quiet anticipation, the coming of winter. The bracken lifts its golden froncls along the road and quivers in the dvingf breeze. Purole asters and tall goldenrocl fill the hollow with a mist of colour. Ivy clambers over the wall and along the ground with tongues of flame. Slen- der birch lift their parchntent leaves in silent supplication to the sun. Softly the maples shed their leaves, like glowing embers, upon the ground. The breeze carries with it the pungent odour of pine forests and the clean scent of the lake. Brambles that in July, bent beneath their lead of fruit, now are bare. The fern is withered and the moss upon the stone is dry and brown. Along the river the rushes and the cat-tails nod. The iris lifts brown seed pods where in summer blossoms as blue as the sky were wont to grow. 'I he willow, of all the trees, is green and holds its leaves save those that drop early upon the water. By the fence, the thistle. a grudging host to the few remaining bees, rears its shaggy head. The fields, covered with a stiff stubble stretch endlessly. their dreary monotony broken only by an occasional outcropping of lichenc-cl rock or clump of clark ceclars. Beneath the ancient hemlocks, in the dim grey twilight a solitary colum- binc' growing in the soft earth beacons like an evening star. its fragile beauty so soon to perish in the long winter night. The shadows begin to taper across the fields. The light grows thin. Slowly off the river a grey mist arises and creeps over the marsh. The air is chill now and a wind has risen that sighs through the woods sweeping the deacl leaves before it like fleeing wraiths. Summer is dead, cold autumn breathes upon the land. About Archaeology By Diff: Philip, IXC A little over three hundred years ago, Ontario was inhabited by thousands of Indians. The one tribe with which I am mostly concerned at this time is the tribe known as the At first, the only Indians possessed by meagre diaries, notes, which were written by French explorers, or missionaries who were properly ama- 7ed at these stone age people. Now we have archaeology, which is a modern Hurons. records of these the world were or a few letters scientific stuclv of the Indians and their way of livingl, of the French and not less important. who discovered the Hu- ron Indians who inhabited the area around Bruce Peninsula. .-Xt Perkinsville, Ontario, which is on or near Lake Hu- ron, I observed the excavation of an Indian grave yard over three hundred years old. The soil was pure sand and projecting from the banks of the pit were skulls. ribs, hip-bones: and one complete skelton was lound. The crew ol six lound great difficulty in removing the bones because of their extreme age and delicacy. The operation required srch fine tools as paint brushes and grapefruit knives, Sometimes the sand had to be literally swept away, grain by grain. Upon speaking to Professor I-Lidd. who was in charge of the excava- tions, I learned that the I-Iurons were very susceptible to disease and several specimens of teeth were found in poor condition. One boy was sifting sand through a fine screen over an ash sifter. His job was to pick out teeth, beads, fboth French trade and I-Iuron-made onesj.
