R. 2 Gormley Phone Azincourt 335.12 Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Stonehouse, David and Edward have been vaca- tloging at Lake Simcoe. It has just occurred to me that I have never read a poor sea story. I think the explanation lies in the fact that only a writer who loves and knows the sea would venture to write about it. Many years ago, I‘picked up a copy of Captain Slocum's “Sailing Alone Around the World". No garden-hammock sailor should miss it. The book was out of print for years, and I was delighted to see a new edition, with an intro- duction by our old friend Arthur Ransome. In these days our adventures are not confined to the surface of the sea. Jean Cousteau will take us into “The Silent World" safely equipped with his under-water breathing apparatus. He intro- duces us to a silent and wonderful world, with all the possibilities of exploration that the Spaniards had who followed Columbus. Those who heard him lecture last winter in Toronto were completely en- thralled by his pictures. And of course Rachel Carson's “The Sea Around Us” will remain a favour- ite until the bottom of the sea is as well charted as the surface. Her earlier book “Under the Sea Wind" is running into frequent new edi- tions. Let us open a few sea-going books on our Library shelves. I again commend Jan de Hartog's books reviewd a few weeks ago by Ralph Edwards, but The Cruel Sea still runs the top favourite and will long be the classic of the little ships of the North Atlantic patrol. If you have not read our own Can- adian Thomas Raddall’s “Pride’s Fancy" there remains a reading treat for you. Incidentally, in Pride’s Fancy there is a wonderful derscription of the building of a wooden ship 150 years ago. Rad-i dall took infinite pains to make his description technically correct and he discussed the craft of ship building with still surviving old ship masters on the Nova Scotian coast, but particularly with the an- cient mariner Captain Nickerson. one of whose sons lives on Bay- view. Yonge St... Richmond um Phone TUrner 4-2133 It will be conceded that sea stor- ies have by far a greater appeal to men and boys. Men who follow the sea and have great adventures thereon are separated from hearth and home, and the love of the sea is therefore inimical to domesticity. However, it is possible to have v!- carious adventures on, by and un- der the sea in a hammock in the garden which is much more com- fortable than a hammock on board a lugger- Williams’ Sunoco Service Station FOE FIRE-SIDE SAILORS Scientists tell us that our blood has almost the same salinity as the sea â€"- that our rhythmic blood pulsations are not remotely differ- ent from the rhythm of the oceans. Does this suggest man’s everlast- ing interest in the sea? About Books And By the Thomhlll Librarian BUTTONVILLE Reading DATED at Toronto, this 15th dent of July, 1953.

Fatigue, soreness and various foot troubles may result from wearing those high heels or fragile affairs that look so pretty in the shop win- dow but which lend little support to the feet; We depend on our feet to support the weight of our bodies and provide locomotion. While they do withstand a great deal of abuse, they finally become strained or distorted with cams and bunions as the result.
