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,
