Two hundred tons dead weight of
supplies and stores were required

View on DerWentwater.

Returning from that town, the other
side of Bassenthwaite Water may be
taken, and the rest of the way back
to Grasmere is identical with the out
ward run. The distance including
the circuit of Derwentwater. is about
seventy-six miles.
But Derwentwater is worth a more
leisured trip, for it's own sake. The
trip from GraSmere to Keswick and
the circuit of Derwentwater and back
is thirty-five miles. The advantages
are with the tourist proceeding to
keswick and there turning left and
past the church, following the eastern
side of the lake to Lodore, where the
Fails of Lodore," sung by Southey,
will be found. Beyond we come to
Shepherds Crag, overhanging the road,
and past the Borrowdale hotel and the
narrow pass called the "Jaws of Bor-
rowdale," whose rocks so greatly
alarmed Gray $50 years ago. At Grange
where the River Derwent flows out of
DerWentwater, the road abruptly turns,
to follow the western lakeside. In
the pleasant vale at Grange is that
giant rock, the "Bowder Stone"
The peculiar advantages of staying
at Grasmere are many. Not least
among them is that within five miles
you have not only Grasmere itself,
rivaling Derwentwater for loneliness,
but Rydal Water, and the town of Am
bleside, with Windermere, the largest
and most popular of the lakes beyond.
All are within an easy walk for the
tourist staying at Grasmere, who will
scarce take out his car when he can
indulge in pleasant footpath rambles
for change. -
The car is for farther afield. For
example, the run to Penrith. along
Ullswater. The out and home run is
ilfty-six miles. The best way from
Grasmere is to take the Windermere
road, as far as Waterhead; thence
turning to the left and up to Trout
beck. The nearer route, up from Am
bleside to kirkstone Pass, is an ex-
ceedingly steep climb, but it can be
taken on the return.
On the way to Ullswater the gloomy
little mountain town of Brothers Wa
ter is passed, and then comes the de-
scent to pleasant, sunny Patterdale
Here the seven miles long lake of
tllsWater the second longest of the
lakes, begins, skfrted all the way by
delightful road, with the waterfall of
Aira Force midway, spouting from its
woody glen. Ullswater ends at Poolev
Bridge whence it is seven and half
miles into the quaint old market town
OF Penrith, passing Yanwath Hall, now
farm house, but good surviving
specimen of the fifteenth century for
tlfled border residence; and thence
over the ancient lamont Bridge. built
in 1925.

ChiIdren's SPENDING Money!

The practice of doing out money to
the children by dribbles, when they
tease for it, and without holding them
to any responsibility in the matter of
spending it, is undoubtedly responsible
for most of the prevalent unthrift
among our young people. It is quite
natural that this childish attitude to-
ward money should continue even into
the period when the young person be-
comes a money-earner on his own ac
count, and oftentimes, into his adult
life as well-Thrift Magazine

But Derwentwater itself is the real
reward of the journey. 1t is generally
considered the loveliest of all the

A Deer Hunt.

Bill and Harry were padding upstream
in their canoe in search of deer. They
had Dan, their dog, with them. They
hadn't been padding long when Bill said
II guess this isn't the deers' favorite
day" Don't be SO sure; just look ahead
and you can make out a buck and its
mate answered Harry. The boys were
excited and they headed their canoe to-
wards shore. When they reached the
shore the boys took their guns and crept
up on the deer. When they reached the
place where the deer were standing they
hid in some bushes. Harry stepped on a
twig and it cracked. 1t attracted the
deers' attention and they began to run.
Dan rushed out of the bushes, made one
great Bound and got a tight grip on the
bucks neck. The bucks mate ripped a
deep wound with her horns in Dams
tanks. But brave old Dan never relaxed
his grip for that
There came a deafening roar and the
mate dropped in a heap. Dan had the
buck in his last agonies, but at last the
time came for Dan to let go of the buck s
, neck, as he was suffering from loss of
blood. There came another deafening
roar and the buck stretched out on the
ground, never to rise again.
Bill put Dan in the canoe and treated
| his wound, while Harry managed the
deer. Soon the boys and dog were start
| ing homeward, tired but happy over the
killing of the deer.

Enjoyed Church Social.

A few weeks ago the Christian En-

free social in the church. 1t was for the
purpose of getting the young people to-
gether and having a good time, and We
certainly did.
lie began by the pastor of the church
telling everybody to laugh when he drop
ped a piece of paper on the floor. and
see who could laugh the longest, They
did and at the last end a baby began
to cry and SO the pastor said that the
baby had won. Then they had bottles
of different medicine and the audience
was supposed to tell what each was
by smelling of it, and writing the guess
es down on a piece of paper. according
to the numbers of the bottles. Also
they had a tray with a cloth. They
would let you look at it for little while
then you had to write down all the ar.
ticles that you could remember.
They played blowing the balloon, car
rying peanuts on a spoon and bean bag

Only a Dream.

One night 1 went to bed at a late hour
and, being utterly fatigued, at once was
sound asleep. After being asleep for some
time had an awful dream. 1t was this:
One day l was daring my friends that
I would not be afraid to cross the rail-
road track when the train was only a
short distance away. Well, I did it, and,
not being satisfied, tried it again. BY
this time the train was drawing nearer,
yes, very near. lay down on the ground
and kept very still.
Finally the last car had Numbered
away in the distance. There I lay, I'M
harmed in the least-only stunned.
After while I recovered from my
shock and again said I would climb lad
der and go on the roof of high build
ing. I did this daring thing.
When 1 was safely seated up there,
kicked the ladder and with a bang bang
bing it fell to the ground.
Scared to death, / screamed for help,
but no one seemed to hear my pitiful cry.
Alas knew not what to do. 1t was
growing dark, and so l decided to give
one leap into the fast. coming darkness
did Another bang! bang! and I fell
to the ground unconscious.
At this part of my dream I awoke and
next morning found that the bangs ]
heard were the slamming of several
doors.
