Maule | { Machar, Miss Dupey, the Misses { Mowat and J. H. Birkett. A novel { and interesting feature of this charm i ing tea was a private view of a won- | derfully executed statute which has been designed and executed by Col. | Nissen for a memorial for the Insti- tution of Mining and Metallurgy, London, England, of which he is a! A | member, to commemorate the sacri- j 2¢o of their members who gave up their lives in the war. The statuette; represents an officer in service uni- | form standing in long gum boots in the act of detonating a mine. The figure is truly life-like, the intent | look in the eyes which also depicted an expression anxious to spring up- on the enemy and wipe them out of existence. Upon gazing at it' from another point of view, the broad shoulders showed life and strength, in fact every detail is true to life. This wonderful work of art is pure- ly a labor of love and Col. Nissen greatly appreciates the honor con- ferred upon him in being asked to design a memorial. Upon completion | the figure will be bronze and the base malachite and silver. The desig- ned has won world fame by his in- vention of Nissen Huts used by all the Allies in the war and was per- sonally thanked by Queen Mary for the great services he had rendered to : the British Empire. | » . * On Friday Mrs. A.
