A tomb with a view on the Great Pyramid of Khufu
The Great Pyramid of Khufu at Giza stands as the last ancient wonder and endures despite centuries of plunder and exploration. Arabs stripped its limestone for mosques, and 19th century amateurs tried blasting to uncover treasure. Today few visitors climb the 450 foot ascent, yet the view from the top remains a mighty fine sight.

Wild goose returns home to Widdifield farm after years
A wounded wild goose that had been cared for by Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Widdifield near Cabri 12 miles NW returns after two and a half years.

The family herded it into the chicken-house noting a new chest wound and recalling their earlier kindness. The note also mentions a 30,000 member Canadian National Pathways War Veterans Association and a new branch forming in British Columbia.
