Otta\ira Youth Wins Summer Ski Meet Hitting almost a mile a minute clip, two Ottawa youths recently shared top honors in the annual James I. Brewster memorial ski race at Columbia Icefield. George Grossman, 20-year-old ion of an Ottawa building contractor, cap- tured the trophy by turning in a time oi 1.37.1 for the mile and a half slalom course, while Roa Car- wardine, a student of Carleton Col- lege, secured second place with 1.39 minutes for i4ie descent. The two Ottawa lads, both memJjers of tlie Ottawa Ski Club, were triumphant over 19 other contestants frotn Montreal. Toronto, Calgary, Ed- monton, Jasper and Vancouver is the gruelling run over the rugged course down the face of Athabasca Tongue of the Great Dome Glacier. The first half of the run was prac- tically sheer ice, while the latter half was wet, with the snow surface in a late stage of firnification and with many small crevasses to be hurdled. The ladies' section oi liie event was won by Lois Woodwortih and Lorna Pirie placed second. The junior boys' section was cap- tured by 16-year-oId Jack Bruce, while Milton "Sonny" Kaine, also 16, was second. The meet was witnessed by more than 20Q persons, and the trophies were presented in the chalet by Mrs. I. Brewster and Mrs. Fern Clarkson. G. H. L.

That may be true of some districts, but here, in Halton County, the dry spell has been much longer. Except for one or two very brief showers. we have not had a real rain since the middle of April. Sometimes there would be rain in Toronto and Hamilton and we naturally hoped for our share, but it was hardly a drop we ever got in this district. And the result is all too obvious . . . and in so many ways. Everyone knows what is happening to the crops, the pastures, fruit and gar- dens, but here is something that I don't believe has been mentioned a: all. Jast this: The cattle and horses are getting very sore feet from walking on the dry, rough ground. The FKT-or things do sc mtich wan- dering back and forth looking for green feed, a bit of shade, or rcm- ning water. They are walking around far more now rhan they would be in aormal times â€" and the dry pastiKes are also having an effect on their digestive syttemc. So, even though it would be too late now to help the crops, we stfll pray for rain to make life more bearable for our Hve stock. But, according to the wcath«- "probe," there is still none in sight. How- ever, it sometimes helps ii we re- member "the darkest hour is j«ct before the dawn." Maybe by IIm time this column i« printed we shall have had tome Hfc-giving tcfa. Wouldn't that be wonderful! If we do get rain, we may have some garden stuff even yet. Moct of our seeds actually managed to struggle throughâ€" all ihey need ic a IHtle encouragement. In that, we are hiclry as some of our neighbors tell us none et their garden seed has sprouted at all That is the way with our clover. Partner spent over SlOO on clover seeds of varioQs kinds.

The last two days, it bat been around 90. and yet, only a week ago we had a small fire in the fur- nace to keep our visitor comfort- ably warm. She is in Toronto again now â€" uncomfortably warm. wTthout a doubt We did a bit of shopping last Thursday and I had an idea 1*ie stores were not quite as busy as usual. Coming home on the but, I was chatting wlPh a friend, at present living in Toronto, who told me that during the last few- weeks rhere have been quite a number of peddlers going from door to door. If that >« a sign of the trnies, ft M one that nobody welcomes â€" un- employ-ment, with the cost of living •o high would be terrible. But per- haps that is one instance where the International Federation of Agri- cohural Producers wonW get a chance to prove its worth. When 1 got home from Toronto last Thttrsday, I just had time to get a bite to eat and then Partner and I went off to sec a show. We specially wanted to see it because It was "Scottâ€" of the Antaretjc." We fhought it was something that was iniormaiive and should be seen. Not only that we were particularly interested in the story of the ex- pedition because Captain Gates came from Gestingthorpe â€" a lit- tle village near -our home in Eng- land. Some time after the ill-fated e.xpedition. Captain Oates' persona' effects were sent home, and 1 re member they were put on exhibit the proceeds, I believe, were usee for some charitable purpose. I was just a school girl at the time and can't remember very much ahout it e-xcept that, even at that age. the tragedy of the whole affair seiMiied so terrible. The picture, of course, is a won- derful production. but neither Partner nor I really liked it. The suffering and privations that the whole party endured seerSed so use- less â€" that is. according to the story. We would have liked it better had rhere been an epilogue â€" just some- thing to show in what way the expedition had been of value to Koientific research. Perhaps there were many things in Captain Scott's diary that proved to be of benefii to future Antarctic explorers, but that is a point that the picture did not bring out. If it 'nad, one would have come away wnth a different feeling. In most pictures, no matter how much tragedy is shown on the screen, one always has the con- soling thought â€" "Oh. well, it it oaly a pictius â€" it didn't really hap- pen!" But with "Scott of the .\nt- arstic," you remember, all the way lt>roug4i, jihct what you see actually did happen. \i a result, one autc- aoatfeally asks Dnt question, "What w*» the good of it all?"
