our west is the Adirondack Park, a large state and privately owned Forest preserve Within this preserve there are many hiking trails which pass through some of the wildest and most beautiful acreage

summer vacation time, there’s bound to be something to please everybody in one of the provincial parks.The parks, which operate on a non-profit basis, are an inexpensive way to holiday, and a recent trip throughout various provincial sites proves that they’re a pleasant way to pass leisure time, as well.The elements that mark the parks are peace, space and quiet, which can be enjoyed in abundance there.Canoeing, camping and fishing are usually available in the provincial sites for those who enjoy sports ac-tivities.Amateur photographers too, can have a field day with their cameras, as the natural beauty of the surroundings provides many subjects.More and more, the government is multiplying its efforts to attract people to these sites, while maintaining the ecological balance and increasing the activities available These days, it is wise to check ahead to make sure the park of your choice has room to accommodate you.SKTTINfl OFF for a day’s hiking in Vermont holds plenty of

barbecue time again, but this year it’s barbecue time with a difference.And the difference is that just as the greater awareness of fish is reflected in the opening of new specialty seafood restaurants across the country and the appearance of seafood dishes on restaurant menus — so, too, is there a growing interest in barbecuing fish Barbecued fish is ideal for outdoor summer entertaining and provides an exciting change from the conventional barbecued steaks, hamburgers and ribs Certain types of seafood such as fish steaks, fillets and whole fish are particularly suitable for barbecuing.Getting the fish poses no problem.Just go to your favorite food store and look for frozen fish from the North Atlantic Frozen fish, in many instances, is even fresher than so-called fresh fish for it is frozen within hours of being caught But look for fish produced by members of the North Atlantic Seafood Association — the products of Canada, Nor way, Denmark and Iceland — for the flesh is firmer, the flavor is better and the quality is protected Hints on Barbecuing Fish Before you start remember that fish takes very little cooking, so all types and cuts of frozen fish should be thawed to refrigerator temperature before barbecuing That way the fish will cook evenly and remain tender.You should also keep in mind that fish flesh has a tendency to break easily when cooked, and becomes difficult to pick up.You can avoid this problem by using a medium or fine hinged wife-grill, or by making a «hicken-wire envelope and placiiîg the fish inside.The wire will remain cool unless directly over the coals, and turning the fish is a simple matter.Whatever method you do use, be sure to oil the grill and the fish thoroughly.Then place the fish on a hot grill.This gives the fish a slightly seared appearance and helps prevent sticking while cooking Keep a pastry brush handy for brushing vegetable oil or butter over the grill and fish.Sauces and Such Very often, a commercial barbecue basting sauce is too strong and destroys the delicate and delicious flavor of fish.Try basting with plain butter.Or garlic butter.Or even fresh lemon juice in butter.Use your own taste and discretion about using sauces either to baste or serve with barbecued fish Here are some interesting sauce ideas you might like to try: Soy Sauce Marinade or Baste Combine equal parts of soy sauce or shoyu; dry white wine, sherry, whiskey or sake and oil ( sesame, peanut or com).Add garlic or grated ginger if desired and allow fish to marinate at least 1 hour before cooking Baste while cooking Season with seasoned salt and pep per when fish is nearly done This prevents salt from drawing off too much juice too early in the cooking.Instant Sauce Marinate fish in a French dressing Flavor with curry, dill, ginger or tarragon Barbecue Basting Butter 4 cup soft butter — whip until light and creamy Add 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp finely chopped parsley, 4 tsp fen nel, 14 tsp.salt, 4 tsp pepper Beat and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.Spread over fish while cooking, and serve with fish when cooked i 'WE'VE GOT THE BIKE FOR YOU!

the vast underground network of interconnecting shopping centers; the quaintness of Old Montreal; the thousands of restaurants from which to choose; the homey touches like flower pots adorning office buildings all add up to making Montreal very special.Start with Old Montreal for a sampling of what was.The old stone walls still peek through in odd corners of this 12-block area.Historic meets modern Handsome chiirchcs like Notre Dame, built in the 1820’s when the area was residential (it*s now- mainly commercial), will highlight your tour.Historic buildings arc mixed with modern boutiques, shops featuring woven and carved work by Canadian craftsmen and dozens wfnnnntî As glorious as the spring sunshine may be, spend some time underground.Underground Montreal covers about five miles of interconnected subterranean shops.Underground delight* Underground you can shop, eat, drink, bank, have your hair done, see a film or just stroll and enjoy.For shops where prices fit the average pockctbook, try the underground shopping at any of the more than 150 shops (also several bars and restaurants) at Place Bona-venture.Place Ville Marie, underground walking distance from Bonaventurc, has another 70 or so shops and lots of eateries.Speaking of eateries, Montreal has more than 5,000 restaurants featuring various national cuisines, plus dozens of different specialties ( seafood, steak, crepes, omelettes, etc.).You can't even hit the highspots on a short visit.Rich « uhiir.il life The cultural life is rich in Montreal, also.There arc theaters to attend in English or French, concerts and ballets, as well as a variety of Museums.Even if the trip to Montreal is a last minute decision it's quite possible to get tickets for many cultural events at the city’s extolled Place des Arts cultural center.Need one speak French to enjoy Montreal?No, but it helps.Dredge up remembrances of French lessons past and you’ll ' J the Montrealers happy to help you finish your sentences — perhaps in English.But at least vou tried.START YOUR VACATION RIGHT WITH CLOTHES DRY CLEANED BY SHERBROOKE LAUNDRY & DRY CLEANERS INC.353 Frontenac St.— Sherbrooke Tel.562-2633 Silence, stealth, keen eye keys to bringing home dinner of froglegs The warm still nights of spring can offer the bowhunting archer a bonus sport that’s a little bit of bowfishing, big game and small game hunting rolled up into one neat, action-packed package.Hunting big bullfrogs at night along a meandering creek or a farm pond bank produces opportunities for exciting shooting and some of the outdoors’ finest table fare.Bullfrogs can be found just about anywhere.Backwater sloughs and remote grassy bayous are ideal.The further away from trailed paths, the biggçr the frogs and the better the eating.Equipment varies, but it’s simple and inexpensive, particularly when the rewards are compared to steep restaurant prices.Some bowhunters rig their bows with battery pak six volt lights, a bow reel and a bow quiver with several blunts, all equipment that most archery oriented folks have anyhow.The bow reel with fish arrow is needed for the “floaters,” or frogs that are sitting out in the water on a bit of floating moss or lily pad; blunts are used for the targets that are found sitting along shore, easily stalked to point-blank range if the hunter is careful.Two archers working in a team eliminate the need for a bow light; turns are taken using a hand-held spotlight.Keep in mind that the light must be held well in front of the shooter to prevent the frog from seeing the stalking archers; otherwise you’ll be rewarded with a far leaping frog and no tasty legs.Any type bow will do and the weights can be light and still be effective, an ideal combination for dad and the boys.Solid fiberglass bows such as the Ben Pearson 3360 are super, durable, and impervious to mud, water or the elements.Dark nights are best and silence is the rule.Good concentrations can be located and hunted often producing action, excitement and delicious dinners.Be sure and check for seasons and limits in your area.Reserve Now for Your Autumn And Winter Holidays TRANS OCEAN TRAVEL Until then, have a good summer.66 King W.Sherbrooke Tel: 563-4515 E XPO SHERBROOKE 1977 AUGUST 12th to 21st LOTO PERFECTA RACES PAUL RIDDELL HELL DRIVERS HORSE PULLING CONTEST TRACTOR PULLING CONTEST PET SHOW 4-H CLUB COMPETITIONS HORSE SHOW INDUSTRIAL-AGRICULTURAL HORTICULTURAL EXHIBITS BINGO—Car Raffle GASTONI ATTRACTIONS All attractions FREE with gate entry ticket except midway F * 4 ¦ ¦ 400 Park St.— Sherbrooke Organized by the Eastern Townships Agricultural Ass n 1885-1977 m vypm.*w*, jr**ÙÉ ¦ ¦ ¦>:¦;:-.•¦ : ¦.¦¦¦.-.-X-.:••¦: •¦-•¦••»-.>vfetYCWe ' ¦ VACATION SUPPLEMENT — i KIDAY.JULY 29.1977 — 5 DAY ON THF' LAKE — Can a day be any better spent than cruising and fishing on an Eastern Townships lake?Holiday safety precautions spare summer tragedies Simple holiday safety precautions can spare tragedy.Things to do away from home are: Have your brakes adjusted before starting out Balanced braking is essential on slippery roads if you get caught in the rain.Keep headlights in top shape and clean reflectors from dirt and dust.Replace defective windshield wipers If you’ve put off buying new tires, this is a good time to get them — just in case; even a new spare will help.Check battery and ignition Tips to help all campers play it safe ! The “first time” camper who becomes the “last time” camper in the same outing has probably experienced some trouble with Mother Nature.Sure, changing weather conditions, insects, accidents and even illness pose potential problems for every camper, but realizing the conditions and knowing w hat to do if trouble arises can help matters immensely, the camping experts at Zebcoknow well.The most efficient first aid kit won’t be of much help if you don’t know how to use it.and since many campers are not familiar with some of the conditions involved with living in the outdoors, it’s a wise idea to read up on the area in which you plan to camp out Find out what plants, animals or insects inhabit the area and how they could harm you Learn what to do about the most common camping incidents, such as insect bites, poison ivy, bums, water hazards and severe sunburn system and other electrical systems in your car; if it won’t start when you need it, you won’t get far.Finally, watch out for summer traffic with all that implies: more cars plus more miles add up to greater travel hazards — so govern yourself accordingly And at the beach: Don’t eat before swimming.Allow’ at least 30 minutes before going in the water.No drinking on the beach.Empty beer cans and empty bottles can be very dangerous to bare feet.Be sensible about suntans.Take it easy at first, especially if your skin hasn’t been exposed to the sun since last year Skin oils will help but will not prevent a bad burn if you spend the day exposed to the sun’s rays — so cover up.Don’t take risks in the water, especially if you haven’t been swimming for a while — don’t get over your head, don’t tire yourself, and don’t dive in shallow water Summer sun safety It really matters little whether you're on the sunny side of the street or not, as Old Sol’s rays can affect you one way or another August is a specially high incidence month for both sunstroke and heat exhaustion Persons over 35 are especially susceptible to these very serious heat effects.Sunstroke occurs from direct exposure to the sun's rays and is characterized by high body temperatures, a flushed face, headaches, dizziness, a pounding pulse and hot, dry skin.If you suspect a person to be the victim of a sunstroke, immediately call a doctor Then, place the patient in a cool shaded area with back and shoulders raised.Undress them down to their underwear and immediately place cold water cloths, rags, etc., on the person's head and body to cool them down Keep changing the cold cloths Heat exhaustion is just that.The victim feels exhausted, the face becomes pale and a cold sweat might break out.Also, the pulse becomes rapid but feeble and breathing becomes shallow.Treatment for heat exhaustion is complete rest in a cool place, plus either a small amount of stimulant or by sipping a glass of water with a teaspoon of salt added to it.Death does not follow heat exhaustion as often as it does in sunstroke GET YOUR TRAVEL INFORMATION

to the three Vermont counties of Essex.Orleans, and Caledonia, in the northeast corner of the state in 1949.and the name has been used habi tually as a geographic designation ever since.By entering from Canada at Beecher Kalis, or Norton or Derby Line, or at North Troy, or by boat down Lake Mem phremagog, which lies astride the international border, you are immediate ly in Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom This is a land of rugged beauty, sparsely settled by people but well endowed with ponds and streams among hills which rise abruptly.The woods seem thicker here than elsewhere in Vermont.Stream and lake fishing is excellent.A furniture factory at Beecher Falls, operated by the Ethan Allen Company and open for visitors to tour, suggests how intensely this part of Vermont is dependent on the logging industry Driving westward on Route 114.which hugs the Canadian border for the part of the distance to Norton and then skirts Great Averill Lake, you may see a moose and other rare forms of wildlife The town of Averill has a year-round population of only 10 per sons, and Norton, four miles westward, is like an outpost in a region of unorganized and unpopulated towns and gores In its years of early settlement Norton was accessible only by a road leading to and from Canada But Derby Line is an active border town and last Interstate link before Cana-day.Newport at the end of lake Memphremagog.with its commercial district spreading directly from the waterfront, is bustling with business conducted jointly in the shops in French as well as English Canadian coins and American coins are used interchangeably in the Vermont-Quebec border country, and crossing from one nation to another Incomes a simple and casual happening In Derby a single Rotary Club serves that community and merchants across the line in Rock Island.Quebec, and the boundary itself passes right through the Derby Library and the Opera House, putting the stage in one country and the audience in the other Canadians often cross at North Troy to ski at Jay Peak in the neighboring town of Jay, where a modern sports area has a devoted band of enthusiasts.A new hotel offers fine accommodations and an aerial tram way can carry 60 passengers to the top in a quick and easy journey.On a clear day from the summit the views include Canada spreading to the north.Lake Champlain gleaming below the Adirondacks to the west, and New Hampshire's White Mountains to the east.South of the border towns are some of the most beautiful lakes in Vermont Seymour Lake, largest with in the state, on Route 111 between Morgan and Morgan Center, for example, and Echo Lake at East Charleston Both are popular summer retreats and fishing excels.At Island Pond, located in a section of Brighton with the same name, a state park with an excellent swimming beach is maintained on the south ern shore Another favorite swimming spot is the state park at Crystal Lake in Barton Lake Willoughby, in nearby Westmore.has sheer cliffs

port of entry from Canada, the Sweat-Comings Company continues as one of the oldest makes of maple furniture in the United States and opesn its showrooms to visitors.The major point of entry is at Highgate Springs where Interstate highway 89 begins at the Canadian border, the main route connecting Mont real with Burlington Just a few miles below the border the highway crosses the 45th parallel, and to the excitement of recently passing from one nation to another is the sudden realization that you are equi distant between the North Pole and the Equator Highgate.itself is still a favorite
