We Wonder if,any of our readers have enjoyed un- ueual holidays this summer. or in fact have had company or any other items that might be of interest to others. During the last week our own Cooper family enjoyed four days driving through Sudbury to Sault Ste. Marie and taking the all day train trip on the Algoma Central Railway to the Agawa Can- Von. Although the weather was chilly in contrast to the hot weather preceeding the week, the country was 'beau- tiful in spite of rain and fog, and the edge of the storms that hit this area on Monday as well. On the return trip, after taking in the locks at the 800, as well as the impressive in- ternational bridge, a day was spent on Manitoulin Island and the return voyage on the ferry SS Norisle, one of the last for the old ferry line. The new boat or boats were to have been in service early this summer. But because of strikes and shortages of ma- terials. the new boats are to go into service by early |September. They will. we understand. shorten the length of the trip to an hour and a half, and increase the load to double the present capacity. elimin- ating, hopefully, the line-ups and waiting that have been the order for some time. We have also been informed the new ferries will accommodate buses, and that gives us food for thought for next year’s three or four-day color tour. Church News Of great interest to all members of St. Stephen’s An- glican, and indeed to the community of Maple at large, was the announcement made Vaughan Senior Citizens Plan Shaw Festival And Color Tours Forty-five tickets have been reserved for the Senior Citizens of Vaughan for the 5:30 pm matinee of “Char- lie's Aunt” at the Shaw Fes- tival Theatre, Niagara-on- the-Lake, September 25.

COLOR TOUR There is still lots of space left on the four-day color tour we have been talking about for the last few weeks.
