In 'the past three weeks, Needham has negotiated ten miles of track- less wilderness, spending much of that time in an effort to find a way around the swampy land that seems to extend intermittently for 20 or more miles, Needham started his jaunt from Halifax, N.S., and plans to finish in Vancouver.

"Another trouble we are up ngainst is the dislike of so many "Jomestic servants of going out of town.

"The Council," she explain. ed, "have five schools in working- class districts, where girls between 14 and 16 are given two years' training as cooks, parlormaids, or nursemaids.
