1 THE VIEW OF HAVRB BOUCHER Pine-clad headlands ,jut 'out into the oceanais random, while across the Strait of Canso, the purple hills of Cape Breton rise in the East, gradually roll northwards and eventually fade away into the dim outline of a distant promontary. ' The village' itself, trim and compact, nestles peacefully at the foot of a hill, the tips of its toes laved in the quiet waters of the Bay. A ribbon or road, smooth as glass, for it is the 'main highway, skirts the village. Three times a day, like lanky greyhounds, busses race over .th s artery of commerce. S ' - t . Other meandering byroads lead in different directions, two southward over the hills to 'ifrankville one circles northward around Cape Jack eventually joining the main highway nearllinwood. Cosy well-kept farm houses dotted over hill and vale give an air of solidarity and quiet comfort. ,Beet of all St. Pau1's Parish Church stands serenely on a central crest dominating this unrivalled pano- rama of beauty.

Since the day Mr. MacKis1xffn visited Havre Boucher to vncourage the making of gardens, club mourners were organized and were soon competing with club members al. over the county. Being inexperienced the first year we met with little success. But in 1945 we were rewarded for our hard labour , . Cn March 28, 1946, Mr. S. E., Fiyte, manager of the I W Royal Bank of Canada, Antigonish, and Mr. 55, fr. MacKinnon, agricul-, tural representative, arrived here at Saint X alle for the purpose of presenting the club members with the si1ver.,c'.p. The trophy, a ' beautiful engraved silver cup was presented hge .'1r.S. E. Kyte. The' Royal Bank trophy is presented every year to e ..oo1 garden clubs for the championship.
