Rundav morning we'll leave for

In Waynesville about 7:30 p m.
OTTAWA. July 25 'By Wire)?
Highlights of the day Wednesday
was a tour of historic Quebec with
Its beautiful hulldlngs. monuments,
and shrines.
yesterday afternoon we enjoy
ed shopping and strolling around
town and some of the group took
carriage rides.
Kn route from Quebec to Ottawa
we observed farming practices and
crops noting an abundance of
hay crops and grains
The weather is good, we are on
lime, and happy.
QUEBEC. Canada, July 23 ?
When it rains it pours?in Canada'
Wo arrived in Quebec about 5
;) m. The tour from Skowhegan.
Maine was made in dry weather
ind without event until shortly
ifter we had entered this prov
nce.
Just a short distance across Hie
border line we ran into a terifTic
rainstorm which flooded the fields,
pastures and highway. Thus our
speed was slowed down for some
Iwo milps. And so It happened
I hat we've had rain every day
since we started on tour.
I'p through Maine from Sko
whegan the group further ob
served living in that state, but
with little change from that re
ported in the last dispatch.
It watt over in Canada where we
began to see the greatest change
in farming. The French Canad
ians build nearly altogether on the
highways -like the farmers in
Maine. Hut the Canadians gen
erally lay out their farms in long,
narrow plots with the residences
down at the roadside. So, the
long, narrow farms 'from 30 to
SO rods apart) afford close neigh
bors down bv the roadside?Illus
trating the French love of socia
bility.
Canadian customs provided no
difficulties?no looking through
bags and other possessions.
About 80 per cent of the people
are of French descent, but many
of them here in tfuebec also
speak Fnglish.
The food was good here tonight
Shopping is not too expensive so
It seemk and some of the group
arc out tonight, either shopping
t>r just taking in the sights.
Tomorrow morning we tour the
city and then after lunch the
afternoon and evening will be
Tree.
SKOWHEGAN. Maine. July 23?
Today we're up in lumbering, po
tato-growing and poultry-raising
Maine.
Where It often geta 20 degrees t
below aero in the winter, it was
50 degrees above at Bangor last
night, (t.onghandles may some
times be seen on the clothes
line.)
They have many large broiler
operations in this state. Major in
dustries are. in order: lumbering,
agriculture, and poultry raising
Potatoes are the No 1 crop, but
there arc also lots of sweet corn
and snap beans.
The soft woods?fir and pine
?make up the bulk of the lum
ber cut. Hardwoods like maple,
birch, and elm account for a
much smaller percentage.
Maine has many tourists at this
lime of the year. So, since tour
mi; parties are catered to. our
meals have been good here?much
like those at home.

Ihr I'nlvfNty of Maine at Orono I
seems to romparr favorably with
those in states with much more
; wealth. The library is a very
fine building. Two hundred acres
(not at Orono) are devoted to
experimental purposes, farming,
forestry, etc.
No rain so far today The weath
er is cool and bracing .and our
j party is if) fine fettle and enjoy
j ing the trip.
BOSTON. July 21?It was rain
ing when we left Poughkeepsie.
N. Y. this morning , and it is still
raining here in Boston tonight.
Yet, with all the rain, we still have
enjoyed the sights.
We spent all our allotted time
at llyde Park in the Roosevelt
Library, the family home, and
the museum. Here we saw many
j interesting articles pertaining to
the life and times of the great
president. The beauty of the
; place and the surrounding coun
tryside, the Vanderhilt mansion,
the Hudson River, parks, and
; flowers, are difficult to deserihe.
After leaving Hyde Park, we
drove to Hartford. Conn., for lunch,
and then on to Plymouth, Mass.,
'where the Pilgrims landed in
, 1H20 Models of the Pilgrims'
'homes have been built and their
tools, furniture, utensils, and cloth
ing have been reproduced What is;
said to be the original rock upon
which the Pilgrims stepped in land
ing in this country' is still pre
served and protected by an en
closure
Arriving in Boston on sched
ule. we bad time to "supper" and
rest a spell before going to the
Rostonian Theatre for "Cinerama
j Holiday". Here we saw the won
] derful. three-dimensional pic
i ture?projected in such a wav as
to give the audience the feeling
that they are witnessing every
j thing in real life as thev travel
by plane, train, or otherwise to
the places and peoples shown.
1 Some of the nervous folk in our
j group forgot that thev were
merely looking at a picture and
seemed to think thev were fly- 1
! ing into a mountain, for example.
Many of the group said thev felt
that seeing this picture, alone. ;
was worth the price of the farm
tour.
Tomorrow's trip "after we lour
Boston" will be mostly along the
coast of this and other states north
eastward into Maine.
