A most delightful auto ride Sunday was
through the town of Gardner-recalled as the
home of an old friend and a we'll known jour-
nalist. Edmund Hudson, for many years in
Washington, D. c., and for the past ten years
an editorial writer on the Hartford Times--to
Winchendon, where we dined at the Toy Tow
Tavern. This is one of the many charming
inland resorts of the Bay State, and not the
least attractive. The proprietor is Martin E.
Converse, the we'll known toy manufacturer of
Winchendon and the place is thus accurately
described in an illustrated booklet: "The
house is not hotel, it is not boarding house
or farm house, it is Toy Town Tavern. The
grounds extend to Lake Watake on one side and
into the unbroken forest on another. Beyond
the lake is the Toy Makers village, beyond
that the rolling hills and the distant grand
Monadnock. A house cooled in summer by
invigorating breezes from hills and forests
with none of the humidity of the lowlands
warmed in winter by modern art. Broad
piazzas with extended views, surround the
house. Within is the wide fireplace, where
the crackle and glow of blazing hickory and
birch wood contri butes an old time cheer
Much more might be said of this delightful
place, land of this and other rides over the we'll
kept, tree-shaded roads, but these Vacation
Notes have already reached an undue length
and much must be left unsaid of the pleasures
of this visit to the hill country of Massachu
sets.

An auto ride one afternoon was somewhat
interfered with by sudden thunder and raj n
storm which necessitated putting up the top,
and on the circuitous route homeward it was
noted that the rain had descended in spots-in
some places falling heavily and leaving pools
of water in the road and elsewhere merely lay
ing the dust. On reaching the hill top it was
found as dry as when we left it. We got ours
early the next morning. About a. M light
ming lighted up the heavens and the thunder
was loud and incessant. Then down came the
rain. the drops sounding on the bungalow roof
like the continuous beating OF kettle drum,
An additional disturbance was the advent OF a
bat in the room of one of the inmates; but of
that the occupant of an adjoining room knew
nothing until the tale was told at the break
fast table. In the morning a northwest gale
was blowing and the atmosphere was clear in
every direction. The thermometer on the
veranda indicated IS, but when it has been
several degrees higher than that there was no
sensation of heat, when sitting in the shade.

true of Northport avenue. AT one place
row of elm trees that had grown up
along the stone wall by the roadside was
cut down, and at another place where a
row of trees had been set out the tops
were cut off in running telegraph line.
At other points every tree and shrub
within the limits of the roadway was cut
down, once by direction of the surveyor
and at other times for fuel.
In Massachusetts today trees are al
lowed to grow up to the Travelled way
and at the proper time any branches
which might interfere with travel are re-
moved. In many places the trees form
an archway over head, and elsewhere are
so tall as to furnish grateful shade IN
hot weather; and thus, with the we'll
made and well-kept roads, make Massa-
chusetts an ideal place for the automo-
bile tourist or summer sojourner.
The memorial above referred to says,
truly: ''In every other country but our
own tree planting goes hand in hand with
road building. With us, however, it has
too often meant tree mulilation or des-
truction." And further:
Many trees, and groves, of unusual
beauty, which lend their individual charm
to our scenery. yet remain; ard their
fate it will be in your hands to de-
termine Wherever possible to bring
these within the view of the traveller,
we hope you will do SO. Wherever pos
sible to save them-even by the devla-
ton of a contemplated straight road
we hope you will do SO. Where the trees
come close to the travelled road, and
there are no dangerous curves, we hope
you will permit them to remain.
Apart from the beauty of the trees,
there is an economic value as we'll, in the
shade they give, the protection to the
road surface from blowing away, the
protection afforded by their roots to the
road-bed itself, Furthermore, the trees,
when once destroyed, long years and
money cannot replace.

fitting and Upset Race Interesting
Features Of Lake Sports.
In the way of small water craft
there is nothing quite 50 alive as the
canoe. 1t has the spring of a bird
over the water, the silence of water
sprite stealing through mysteries Of
| shadow and the swiftness of fish
darting on its prey.
The canoe seems to form part of the
being who prOpels it and lends itself to
diversity of sports not surpassed by
any other craft
One Of these is fitting. At given
signal pairs of canoes dart out upon a
lake into deep water. and the tourna-
ment begins. In each canoe are a skill
ed oarsman and il man with lance.
The lances are long and wadded at the
end and require agile and experienced
handling. With poised lances the ca
noes rush at each other. and then it is
a wild struggle to keep the slender
boats afloat while lances are plunged
with powerful impact against contend
ing knights.
The Knight VINO is forced into the
water loses the tourney. but before
that happens canoes dart forward and
rush back for stronger spring. They
rise like a living thing to the fray and.
with water churning against their frail
sides. culver in the endeavor to pre-
serve equilibrium against the odds of
war.
If fitting is exciting sport. the upset |
race is even more 50. for the reason |
that it requires skill of different sort |
and wonderful rapidity and deXterity |
Of movement. There is. too. an added |
element of danger, for the way of safe
ty in the water never lies beneath a |
capsized boat
An ideal canoe is fifteen to eighteen
feet long and thirty to thirty-six inch
es broad. 1t is 50 light-weighing
about SiXty-five to seventy odd pounds
that one man can tote it through

The price is such that the canoe is of

which it is constructed and with ref

ry b. Flood of Virginia, in wni.a Pe
discussed the growing importance u
two South American Republics, Az
geltina and Chilli. He noted the fac;
that Buenos Ayres, the capital of Ar

years over s5O,OOO,OOO in providing
itself with system of concrete docks
and warehouses, and two channels,
each 80 miles long and 30 feet deep;
to the River Plate; he also noted the
fact that Valparaiso, ChiIi's chief
port, had expended S15.OOO.OOO in
creating the best artificial harbor in
the entire coast line Of the Pacific
Ocean. These are startling facts for
the consideration Of American cities
anxious to get into shape to easily

In reply to the question as to what
one who cannot swim should do if he
falls into the water when there is no

champion life saver of the United
States, once said:
when one falls into the water the
weight of the body will force it under
the water at first, but it will rise again
if the mouth is kept shut. When you
are under the water clasp your hands
behind your back, squaring your ell
bows so as to balance the floating
body, and you will rise to the surface
on your back and float until help reach
es you or until you starve, as long as
you keep your hands in that position.
