379 August 29, 1979 SUSQUEHANNA TIMES—Page 7 with Woody Myers, Joe Gilmartin, and Charlie Johns as their leaders 0 n c y f f eager scout really wanted a big fish and accidentally hooked Jason instead. Having the dubious distinc- tion of the camp’s only major ccasualty, Jason, accompanied by Charlie Johns, was whisked to Midland Hospital across the bay by a Canadian ranger boat, administered to and discharged. Their taxi back to Beausoleil wasn’t as prompt however. Mr. G. and Kip, given misleading instructions, missed Mid- land, landing at the wrong mainland dock several miles away! How simple _ to become lost er misplaced amid those islands and lakes! August 17-The tired band lumbered back into civiliza- tion, bringing much of the island’s grit and grime with them. August 18-A fascinating day at C.N.E., Canadian National Exhibition, a 20 day celebration in Toronto held annually. Toronto is a creative collage of proud citizens, magnificent horti- culture and scenery, fantas- tic, innovative architecture, refreshingly complementing the old and new worlds. There is little littering, if so, one is politely tapped on the shoulder and asked if you dropped something, please’ pick it up! The exhibition commenced with a most impressive parade of Cana- dian and United States war veteran contingents inter- spersed with hundreds of Scottish Regiments and bagpipers. As they conver- ged and honored their fellow patriots, the scene was most stirring. The Canadians surely provide a truly fascinating celebration and space could not permit lengthy comment on all the creative areas. One very favored spot was the food pavilion, teeming with ethnic aromas and an abundance of tempting selections, one offering a $.25 mound of spaghetti. Imagine! Especially fof. the people, a futuristic ue of islands and attractions comprised ‘‘Ontario Place”’, reached by walking across the lake enclosed bridges. One particular amazement was the Cinemasphere, a complex domed theater structure, resting in the water and creating the inner space sensation of being in the ocean with the nomads of the deep. At one attraction called Music Express, what were those three handsome fellows from the group smiling about for forty-five minutes, Applications For Goose Blinds Will Be Accepted Applications for hunting from goose blinds at the Pennsylvania Game Com- mission’s two controlled hunting areas at Pymatun- ing and Middle Creek will be accepted from September 1st through September 20th.

Ask Thorny!! “Anyone who enjoys fighting one’s way upstream amid 110,000 others for twelve hours would thoroughly adapt to the atmosphere of | the Exhibition. It became infectious, however, and was well worth the non-stop pace. August 19-Back to the Falls, Niagara that is, where the troop was treated to R & R leave. The Skylon Tower, a sentinel overlooking the magnificence of the S, proved a fascinating play- ground for Tim Trostle and his tribe. The scouts provided endless entertain- ment for those timorous souls, sitting at ground level, watching the endless succession of visitors ride up and down the viewing elevators. One gratifying experience in Canada was the welcomed rate of money exchange. At least we found one country where our United States dollar is worth more, anywhere from $1.10 to $1.17 or $1.20!! August 20-Seemed as though Johns, in the lead vehicle, was attached to Canada with a rubber band. He led the troops round and round Niagara, passing the border gates several times. Finally the tedious trek home was begun. The troop seemed somber but satisfied with the results of those eleven days as they became anxious to succumb to the sanctity of their ‘homes, perhaps soon ready to embark upon another ad- venture, but first a few hours of uninterrupted rest. Many scouts reached completion of numerous skill awards and merit badges plus advancement of rank. These recognitions should be acknowledged at the annual summer picnic to be held in September. In summation, this high ad- venture proved to be a gratifying experience of scouting lore and co-exis- tence with fellow scouts. ahead fox reservations!
