Believe it crnot, but Mrs. Brandt Johnson celebrates each of her birthdays by walking a mile for every year of her age.

This year Mrs. Johnson hiked from Beamsville to Toronto in a flat 16 hours. The distance be- tueen the two places is 62 miles. Last year she observed her 61st birthday anniversary by covering the same route in 14 hours. But most of the hike was made in a driving rain.
