Some of these folks are dead, many for-! gotten, and the remnant of the gang at the celebration, had fhe decency and common sense, say very little about a and their part.

Being at Kenora, gave him opportunity to come here. He flew from Sioux Look: out, and was in Town three hours on Monday afternoon. He was entertained by the Board of Trade, whose President took the chair in the Council Chamber: As Minister of Lands and nl ests "he was able to speak nn: uminatively to a representative crowd, and I think all present' were glad to be. I am a little afraid that even this may reach: his view,"so I am loathe to say that Mr. Fin- layson has the charm of frank. ness.

One of the friends n the back opened the door be- ore I had stopped, and it so happened that a snag jutted out of the mountain side at the par- ticular spet and the door was nearly wrenched off its hinges. After gazing in wonder at the tunnels and scenery around, we continued to our camping plac pitched our tent and prepare. to eat. Whilst we were doing so along came a black bear. Tourists are warned not to feed the bears, but nothing was said = about photographing them, so George took a snap. Whilst these animals are wild they seem to be used to tourists and regardless of warnings not to do so, many of them get well fed. Next morning we had an in- teresting experience, first the mountain tops were almost hid- den and one could almost touch the clouds, (I should say that we fixed the door without the Lelp of garage men) this was our first experience of being un ir the mountain and having the clouds almost enveloping us, it twas like a drizzling rain, Emer- ald Lake, one of the beauty spots at this point, was an eight mile drive. On the way a storm blew up and it rained in torrents and blew a tornado. .Soon we were barred by a giant pine tree laying across the road, af- ter waiting a while, a repair crew came along and cut it up and a tractor. hauled 'it out of the way. Advancing about a mile, we were stopped by anoth- er tree, more delay, we must have been very close when this one fell as the telephone wires were still tembling, that is those that were not snapped apart. Eventually we arrived at the lake whieh was far from pretty under the adverse circumstances, but it must be wonderful on a fine day. On-the return jour- ney we had to have two more trees cleared out of the way. Asking if this was a usual thing the men said, no they had 'not known it to happen for years, evidently it was quite a twister that fetched them down. Another trip from camp was to Takakkaw, Halls. These falls are fed by the Daly Glacier, 3560 feet from the source to the bot- tom of the fall, they eome over such rough mountain side that the water arrives at the bottom more like spray. On the way to the falls we had to go up a road called he. switechbaek, this was a very sharp. grade, rising 200 feet in a quarter of a mile, the corners could not he made in one turn, had to take a half turn then back into an earth- work, put to keep the car from -.L going over the side of the moun. tain, and then go ahead, coming down we had to go in low gear, (Continued Next Week) Mrs. J.
