It would be difficult to discover a better place for the fulfil- ment of the poets desire than the South Shore of Nova Scotia It offers all the elements described in his stirring poem. Here you have scenery of the sea unmatched anywhere; flowing tides, cloudy skies, surging surf, screaming sea gulls. From Yarmouth to Halifax the coast line is a rope of pearls, a coral necklace. The sea in all her varied moods may be enjoyed w.thout the least risk of mal-de-mer, for you may get all the glories from the many snug places along the shore. There are quiet havens where the majes- tic calm of the ocean is a constant delight. There are rugged spots where the pounding surf and giant breakers can be studied in all their wondrous power. Long, golden beaches offer pleasure unsurpassed for the bather. There is a tang and nip in the waters. a roll in the white-crested surf, that tease the timid and charm the plunger. Sun-kissed sands gleam along the full length of the coast and offer a paradise for the frolic of youth. If you are a fisherman, you have the choice of pulling cod from the sea or coaxing trout and bass from the rivers. Within easy distance from any of the excellent hotels there are royal opportunities for the disciples of Isaak Walton. If you are a hunter, and the season is open, there could be no finer chance for game than the woods and barrens immediately back of the coast line. Are you an artist? Then the sea-scapes will lend you an unrivalled canvas and a certain fame. The sunsets are more Zane Grey, the celebrated novelist, and his 758 pound world- glorious than the art of Turner. The deep tones of the sea make record Tuna, caught with rod and line off Liverpool. finer music than the greatest cathedral organ.

flourish in abundance, poultry and game may always be obtained, and as for the culinary art there are no cooks superior to the Nova Scotian. In nearly every town you will find tennis courts, golf links, ball fields, movie palaces— places of recreation where the tired mind may find release from business worries. The lover of history will also discover here many interesting

records and mouments, for Nova Scotia is 's most ancient province. Here were the beginnings of colonial history and each town has something of a rare and pleasing character to show you. You may travel back to the seventeenth century and read the breathless stories of the pioneers in the ancient province. If you are an antiquarian, there will be many chances of picking up antiques to adorn your home.

The sum of the matter is that the South Shore offers all the reliefs that the city-dweller requires. Here you are free from the blistering heat, and the noise and rush of the crowd; here you may re'ax and be unconventional, for there are no social restric-

tions or demands such as city life imposes Your body will be

Chester is one of the gems of the South Shore of historic Acadia. Here you may enjoy golf, tennis, bathing, sailing, hunting, motoring, riding, stream-fishing and deep-sea fishing. There are splendid opportunities in season for deer, moose, part- ridge, woodcock, snipe, salmon, trout and tuna.

Chester is situated on the celebrated Mahone Bay, sheltered from the Atlantic by over three hundred forest-clad islands. An annual regatta takes place in August, with yachting events of unusual interest. Captain Kidd's famous treasure island lies about three miles distant. There is a large colony of American summer residents. Cottages may be rented for the season.

The climate is ideal. There are no mosquitos, no hay fever; it is always cool in hottest summer weather, and the autumn season is unequalled. Ox-team loaded wish dried Cod
