She went for two weeks and stayed for more than four. As she says “The proverbial Western hospiitality is alive, and well, and living in the prairie provinces". There were 42 house league teams in I974. The league also established nine teams to represent Thornhill in other areas within the province. Thornhill could be very proud of the five boys‘ teams for ages 9 through Ix. girls from II to 16 and an intermediate ladies‘ team.

Since the crops were late in maturing this year, on account of the weather. every favorable moment was occupied with swathing, combining, cutting sillage, spreading fertilizer and seeding fall crops. The women on the farms were filling freezers to» over- flowing and canning fruits and vegetables as garden produce was exceptionally plentiful. Some highlights of her trip were: attendance at a Malaysian dinner given by a group of young Malaysians whose visit to Canada was made possible by a youth grant to local young people; a lovely day in the woods picking lowbush Cranberries (moss berries), the wild _counterpart of our cran- berries; a tour through the Honeywood Nursery con- ducted by the owner, Bert Porter; (he grows lilies and ships bulbs to all parts of North‘America and most European countries in- cluding Russia); a brief visit to the Emma Lake Resort; in Saskatoon a visit to the Western Development Museum.

PUBLIC LIQBARIES CRIME AT THORNHILL The end of the summer is upon us and the season for curling up with a book in front of the fire is ap- proaching.

Si Peter Dickenson, known for his SKIN DEEP and PRIDE OF HEROES, is the author of THE POISON ORACLE, and it’s a dandy, strange, imaginative and original. The plot is con- cerned with psycho- linguistics in an Arab kingdom. It pursues its mad subject in a fascinating manner with a murder thrown in. One of the most challenging mysteries in a very long time. STORM TIDE by Bill Knox is a Crime Club Selection, which always makes for good reading. The setting of this one is dif- ferent â€" on the sea between the mainland of Scotland and the Isle of Skye. There is both fishing and murder. Mr. Knox~ also wrote SEAFIRE and THE KILLING TIME. Good luck to your winter mystery reading. Scotland Yard. The setting is London in a hitherto unexplored area.
