BLUE AND WHITE 17 Up ippartpmpnt Jffranrata Catherine Bodette. ’37, Editor Vermont Vermont est un etat industriel, Mais il est aussi un peu agricole. Car quelques uns de ses villages Produisent beaucoup de bons frontages. Vermont, l’etat des montagnes vertes, Est superbe en toutes saisons, Et il est tres reconttu Pour ses endroits de belles vues. L’Explorateur, Samuel de Champlain, un Franqais. ■etait le premier homrne Itlanc de jamais visiter les Adirondacks. Il a entrepris trois voyages au Noveau Monde. Cet explorateur a fonde la ville du Quebec et plus tard Mont Royal, appellee aujourd’hui Montreal. En 1609 Champlain. en compagnie des utiles Hurons et des Algonquins, est alle vers le sud. Deux siecles apres sa traversee dans un canot. le premier bateau a vapeur etait mis a l’eau sur le lac que Champlain avait decouvert sur ses voyages avec les Peaux-Rouges et auquel il a donne son nom. Les Peaux-Rouges avaient connu le lac comrne “cani adere quarante” signi-fiant “le lac qui est le portail de la patrie. M. B. Champlain Avant la colonisation le lac etait employe beaucoup par les Peaux-Rouges mais apres la colonisation il etait employe par les colonies Anglaises et Franqaises. Champlain est considere comrne le plus attractif aussi bien que le meilleur lac pour les yachts. Dans l’eau du lac il y a beaucoup de merlus, avec des brochets, des perches et des bars. Les cotes abondent en toutes sortes des sports et des facilites pour le canotage, le golf, le tennis. Taction de baigner, et Tautomobilisme. A. E. H. M. R. L. A. I. H.
