Dr. Alexander Graham Bell’s fame, strange to say, does not rest altogether on his invention of the telephone. At a re cent meeting of Telephone Pioneers that wonderful blind woman, Helen Keller, stone deaf and at one time dumb also, spoke of her memories of Alexander'Graham Bell. “You who see and hear may not realize the Pacific to the Atlantic and make it possible for Mr. Watson (who was : .here" 1) actually travelling the distance from San Francisco to New York in “I ave never known another man with Dr. Bell’s many-sidedness a); enthusiasm concerning the interests of other people.” Helen Keller (seat at [8130 Dr. Bell and his sister on their last visit to the Bell Homestead at Brant entirely to a £1 “The we:- of the opening Handsome. inc ensivo, fixgproquasyto syove: Ensuuv V B: carpenfiar.‘ l to navigation last month, are just entering on their summer condition of ofiering one of the major attractions of the Dominion to tourists. Vistas of beautiful islands and frowning headlands present some of the most beautiful scenery on the North American continent, while the illusion of sea travel is given to passengers when for a full day at least noâ€" thing but water is visible from the ship. Canadian Pacific ships, traversing their watersweekly, surg- ly every up-to-date comfort and facility to travel- ers and remarkable engineering works add to the list of sights and beauties which nature gives in profusion. Often you say “some day I’ll take an ocean voyage,” but did you ever stop to ,think that next door to you is an inland ocean where for two glorious days aboard a. Canadian Pacific ship you can enjoy your longâ€"dreamed of voyage? If you haven’t, the chance lies open to you and you can take the delight- ful cruise across Huron’s blue waters, through the lovely St. Mary's River and away over the broad he Great Lakes â€"â€" Canada’s inland_ ocean â€" opened to navigation last month. are mst entering nn GALVANIZED SHINGLES PAGE FOUR for The Roof %%~T A Trip Through Canada’s inland Ocean S.S.

Marie lock has been constructed and the Canadian Ship Canal to join up the two lakes. This remarkable engineering work is one of the sights of the voyage. Three fine 'shipsmake the trip weekly for the Canadian Pacific, the “Keewatin,” "Assiniboia," and "Manitoba," two from Port McNicoll and one from Owen Sound, with the same number of eastward sailings from the Twin Cities. You can take it as a trip in itself or you can take it as a break in your rail journey across the continent. It carries you from Port McNicoll to the Head of the Lakes at the Twin CitieS? The great; white ships of the Canadian Pacific speed along with all the swift grace of gulls that circle and dip at the mast heads or perch and flutter above the deck rails. Perfection of service adds a last pleasing touch to the meals, the comfort of the staterooms and the soeial aflairs on deck and below. expanse of Lake Superior, the largest body of fresh water in the world.

A new chapter of provincial racing history, and the change of ownership of one of the oldest homesteads in the environs of Toronto are embodied in an announcement this week to the ef- fect that _ the popular Thorncliffe racing stables, owners of Shorelint, this year’s King’s Plate Winner, and other well-known racehorses, have purchased the Stewart Willcocks farm at Thornhill, which has been in one ownership for more than a century. iToward fall the Thorncliffe stables Etwill transfer to this new location, and "in the interim necessary preparations for the reception there of their fine string of racehorses will be put in hand. , To_day Stewart Willcocks and his fsister are resident in the old home- stead, a place of delight, with the attractiveness that comes of an at. mosphere of antiquity. A fine old frame house with a great cavern-like cellar, solid stone foundations and large lofty r‘ooms, finished in solid black walnut, it brings back to one ideas of a substantial home comfort, 10w long vanished in this era of autoâ€" nobiles. In the spacious hallway of this fine tld home, hang two splendid three- luarter length portraits that perhaps are worth almost the price paid for he farm itself, though much darkened ~y age and sadly in need of the atten- ions of the restorer, they show learly enough the touch of Sir foshua Reynolds, the master, Who )ainted them.
