THE GASPE PENINSULA

PAGE SIX NEW BRUNSWICK

The Province of New Brunswick is a land of lakes and rivers, of forests and streams. On the north the waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Strait of Northumberland wash its shores. On the southeast the waves and tides of the Bay of Fundy play hide and seek amid the curious shaped rocks and caves that line the shore. The tides of the Bay of Fundy are world-famed for their height, being among the highest in the world and rising in places to over fifty feet. The bay is about 180 miles in length and 45 miles wide. Salmon and trout leap in the rivers and streams, while in the fall of the year the lordly moose stalks forth, conquering and to be conquered. Deer also abound amidst the wallows and the tree-enleafed bowers of the forest. Bruin, greedily devouring some of the luscious berries with which the forest abounds, is often disturbed in his feast by the sound of the hunter and swiftly fades from view, unless cornered, when he fights with his back to the wall, like the old campaigner he is. The Restigouche River is part of the northern boundary of New Brunswick and its course is followed to Campbellton. The river is thickly dotted with low-lying islands, rich with meadow-land, their hues A square-rigger loading at Campbellton. of green contrasting finely with the silver surface of the river.

The Saint John River Valley

To gain some idea of the beauty of the Saint John River Valley take the river route to Fredericton, the Capital City. All along its course are prosperous vil- lages or summer resorts. Long lumber rafts float leisurely down the river and sailing or motor yachts dot its shaded reaches. The Saint John River is navigable for large river steamers 86 miles to Frederic- ton and for smaller craft for 200 miles farther up. The route may be varied by taking, in either direction, the Canadian National Railways, which follows the river course. Fredericton is a delightful old city with stately elms, quaint old churches, a modern cathedral —an architectural gem— a university building over a
