Red Lamp,’’ delightfully played by
members of the Unity Club, New West-
minster,

Miss F. Nelson opened the program
with a clever pianoforte solo ‘‘ Veni-
tienne,’’? which well merited the ap-
plause it received. Two solos were
earnestly sung Mr. I. Douglas, and the
inimitable Mr, Anders rendered his
histrionie gem “The Vicar and I Will
Be There’’ and another funny dialogue,
‘‘Priend of Mine’’ was sung by Miss
M. Wattie, again revealing a voice of
fine expression and real technique, the
number winning an enthusiastic encore
from the audience. A pretty little re-
citation ‘‘Papa and the Boy’’ by Miss
J. Shortreed was also greatly appreciat-
ed for its clever and appealing rendi-
tion.

Net proceeds from the event will con-
tribute a substantial sum towards the
school library.

M2 tales have drifted down from
the north of how men have over-
taken and captured wolves, deer and
other switt-footed inhabitants: of the
woods of Ontario and Quebec.
Readers of such have often been
skeptical but the above photograph,
taken only a short distance from the
Canadian Pacific lines in the Lau-
rentian Mountains, that such a thing
is possible, in the case of deer at least.
Heavy snow, as can be seen, avcounts
for this and in the pictures above
several trappers on snowshoes have
succeeded in capturing two animals
in question. The deer looking
placidly into the camera was no
doubt caught only after an exhausting
chase through. the deep drifts. The
little doe that seems to be just an
armful for the trapper, will doubt-
less be admired in a short time by
thousands of people in some city
park. Trappers in the northern
sections of Ontario and Quebec have
aved many of these young animals
rom death by freeing them from
heavy drifts of snow, and thus
keeping them from packs of hungry

wolves,
