Fly-fishing amid the peaks of the Rockies is the new sensation
for the sportsman. In cloud bound Lake Maligne, Jasper Park,
the lucky angler makes his first strike of the season. The story is
told in Associated Screen's "Sky Fishing," latest featurette in the
'Sport Chat" series. Nearly a mile above sea level., the wily trout
are pitting their cunning against the anglers.

When at about two o'clock Dawson
Haig arrived, the dingy shutters of
the Cafe Magrabi were closed. Has-

leading, they dashed into the dirty
cafe. Where there had -been a mat-
ting curtain lending to the short cor-
ridor beyond, a stout wooden door
now showed. They broke it down.
This was the sound that, mingled
with a gurgling shriek, had formed
Eileen's last waking memories.
Indeed, old Hassan, having carried
the unconscious girl through the tun-
nel, bad only just laid her on the
slivan when the raid starter?. He left
her and tied to an upper back room
from the balcony of which he had
a private exit of his own onto a
neighboring roof .. .
Haig dashed down the three wood -

He was on his knees beside a pa-
thetic white figure, half draped by
a. dirty coverlet. His teeth clench-
ed in furious anger, he drew it more
closely over her and eagerly bent his
lead. "Thank Gait!" be whispered,
"Thank God!"

staircase leading out of it—the very
staircase ttp which old Hasson had
run not five minutes before, There
was an open door, a disguised door
very cunningly contrived, low down
in one wall, Below—brick steps.
"Upstairs, sergeant! Take three
men! Send three more after me!"
Haig, ducking his head, raced down
into the short tunnel which led to
the house of the potter. He found
himself in an empty lobby, ran up a
wide staircase, and into a saloon with
shuttered windows, One lamp burn-
ed above that divan upon which Eil-
een had been submitted to the judg-
ment of the chief eunuch of His Ser-

approached by steps, and pushed it
open cautiously.
On the threshold of the room be-
yond, he fell back. A man lay upon
the floor in a pool of blood, his
throat torn as though by the fangs
of a wild animal!
"This was how poor N''rwicb died!

But the rat hole was empty, from
mouldy, decaying roof, to stinking cel-

Eileen found on the premises was
Amami Pasha, his jugular pierced by
curving teeth, his blood pumping out
from those ghastly wounds. And
Haig thought he detected a faint
smell of musk. . . .

Interesting Facts
Boys Training School at Bow-
rnanville Highly
Successful
Mr. Albert R. Vergin, superiiWtd-
ent of the Boys' Training School. at
Bowmanville, Ontario, brought out
some interesting facts recently in
connection witch this work of : the
school vvhich should be of interest
generally among the citizens, The
school is for the training of delin-
quent, boys between the' ages of twelve
and'fifteen and has been Li iperation
since 1925.
In the seen years the school has
been in operation at Bowmanville
560 boys have been received and 450
have been discharged. Of these it was
safe to assume that 80 per cent, were
successfully adjusting . themselves.
The average on the roll at the school
last year was 129. The boys could
not be committed to the school by a
judge, but were admitted on apelic-
aon of some service club or welfare
o ganization after the application
was approved by the Minister of
Public Welfare. An intellige nee
quotient of 80 was required, the
school not being for sub -normal boys.
As a rule the boys were admitted be-
cause of broken home oionditions.
The average stay was for twenty
months, with a maximum of two
years. There was a curative purpose
behind the work, to take the boy out
of the environment in which be had
got into some trouble and to train
him. The municipality from which he
cane was required to pay for his
maintenance at '75 cents per clay, and
when ready to be discharged the ag-
ency which sponsored him resumed
supervision along with the co-opera-
tion of the school. The placement
supervisor visited those who were out
once a month.
The younger boys were given aead-
emic training full time, but the older
one half time academic and half time
vocational training. There were six
occupations taught, agriculture, , hor-
ticulture, cooking, auto repair, wood
working and machine shop. When
first admitted a boy was allowed to
sample the occupations and then was
taught the occupation of his choice.
In the entrance class last .3r
twenty-five out of thirty-five passed
the high school entrance examinations
with only three hours instruction per
day.
An effort was made to keep the
boys extremely busy. Their studies
occupied the time until four o'clock.
followed by an hour of swimming,
gymnasium work, badminton or such
sport. From six to seven supervised
homework in connection with s..hool
was done, after which group activities
such as boy scouts and band were
were carried on. On Saturday organ-
ized games were arranged. Sunday
morning church services were attend-
ed in the town, and the afternoon
was given over to Sunday -school in-
struction under the regular stats. To
secure the interest of the boys was
found to be the central point of cor-
poral punishment being held over
Twice a year discharge was con-
sidered carefully by the staff, when
each boy's record was reviewed. En-
quiry was also made as to the boy's
home conditions, and if these were not
found fit for him to return to, a fos-
ter home was found. There was less
than five per cent. of re -admissions
of all boys discharged. The boys were
not bad, only requiring ordinary de-
cent truaLin nt.

In the Yukon
English Born Wife of "Moun-
tie" Lives Within 1 a Miles
of the Arctic Cirrle.
A woman is setting out from the
village of Dersingham, in Norfolk,
England, for the far -away Yukon
territory.
She' has lived within ten mile: of
the Arctic Circle and she has accom-
panied her husband, a sergeant in the
Royal Canadian Police, on many.
perilous adventures, including man-
hunts.
Mrs. Mary Tidd—that is her name
—has been spending a holiday with
her relatives in England.
Her husband, a Norfolk man and
formerly a school teacher, has been
stationed in- the Yukon Territory for
nearly twenty years. Over the last
hundred miles or so of her journey
to rejoin him Mrs. Tidd will go on
a dog -drawn toboggan. But this will
be no novelty for her.
She has on many occasions set out
with her husband on a 800 -mile
oboggan "trip," pitched camp on the
frozen snow, cooked a meal and set-
tled for the night with the weather
fifty below zero, and with bears,
caribou and other dangerous animals'
of the Northland prowling sealed.
Through the Blizzard
Mrs. Tidd has lived in parts where
no white woman has lived before.
The native first looked upon her in
wonderment.
"My husband never knows when
he will be called out, where he will
have to go, or on what errand," she
said.
"I accompany him on all calls that
are any distance away, even if it
means chasing a dangerous criminal
or a mad trapper. The `old-timers'
(the trappers) through years of iolie-
liness in the wilds often become un-
balanced .
"I travel on a toboggan drawn by
three dogs, and my husband in an-
other drawn by four dogs. We carry
our tent, our bed; a stove, food and
utensils strapped to the toboggan. I
have travelled many hundreds of
in this way, often through
blinding blizzards."
His Big "Capture"
The meeting of Mrs. Tidd ani her
husband is a romance. Sergeant Tidd
was at Dawson City when suddenly
"out of the blue" came a young and
pretty woman. She was travelling to
Fort Yukon, Alaska, to take up a
post as nurse at a mission.
The tall policeman in his smart uni-
form attracted her eye. She had al-
ready attracted his. She stayed one
night in Dawson and they danced to-
gether, and then she passed on to her
work with the natives and Eskimos.
A year later he followed her and
made the "capture" of his life. They
married, and he took her to his log
cabin, which for nearly three -parts
of the year was snow covered.
Mrs. Tidd made a difference to
that shack. She draped it with pretty
curtains. But her great achievement
was securing a piano. And there, in
the snow waste, hundreds of macs
from anywhere, she would play to
her husband.
Two or three years ago they were
able to fix up 'a radio and hear what,
was going on in the outside world.

Says Animal Proteins are Essential for Building Up New

June is a logical month for parties
for 'the younger members' of the
family and many mothers will be
called upon to help entertain and feed
groups varying in size from a few
"best friends" to the entire class.
Nor it the problem any less simple
because of the age of the guests,
since young people are as exacting as
their elders that everything be cor-
rect, from decorations and favors to
food itself. This required careful and
thorough planning.
For the party which is to be fol-
lowed by dancing or cards, the din-
ner should be at least semi -formai,
with cocktails (tomato juice fruit or
fish), soup, a. main course of meat,
potato, one other vegetable at leas
a light salad and a dessert. If the
party is large, small tables for four
or six are nice, and the dinner may
be more readily served in this fash-
ion. Flowers and candles in class
colors form an attractive centerpiece
The class color idea may be further
carried out by using nut cups which
harmonize. A survey of any favor
counter will yield many interesting
suggestions fortheseoccasions.
A very popular meat with most
young people is fowl. If it is to be
served .creamed or a la king, it is
more economical to buy small tur-
keys than large chickens, as there is
more neat on then per unit. Fancy
jellied salads are always acceptable
for a summertime menu, and ice
cream with its accompanying sauce
of crushed fruit, or caramel or choco-
late, is an almost universal favorite.
THE INFORMAL PARTY
An outdoor picnic in the woods at
at the beach is always popular. To
hold one of these successfully, games
or entertainment, as well as lunch,
should be planned and arranged for.
For younger children, races, ball
games, even a croquet set, adds much
to the enjoyment. For those of high
school age, a portable phonograph is
almost indispensible.
The food for these informal af-
fairs is best packed in individual
boxes or bas' ets, each to contain the
same assortment. Beverages, such as
lemonade, fruit punch or coffee, may
be carried in thermos jugs, in which
they will keep hot or cold for hours.
An outdoor party, served on the
home lawn, in a very simple way of
entertaining. In this case, a plate
lunch, served on card tables, ie per-
haps„ the easiest method of serving.
Paper plates and cups, paper cloths
and napkins, grid even paper knives,
forks and, spoons are available, and
complete a really "partified" table. A
meal like this served just before
dusk, with Japanese lanterns for il-
lumination, as the darkness comes on,
has a special fascination for young
folks.
Perhaps the radio or gramophone
may be carried to the porch, then
dancing will certainly be in order,
and no further plans will be neces-
sary for the entertainment of your
guests. A large bowl of punch, how-
ever, is always an asset to a thirsty
evening of dancing.
FOR BOYS -YOUNG AND OLD
The idea of a stag affair seems to
bud in the masculine breast at a very
early age. So if you are planning
something of this sort, let it be
strictly Stag.
A buffet supper is the best servic
for this type of party. Plenty of cola
cuts, attractively arranged and garn-
ished, cheese of many varieties, crack-
ers to accompany them, a well season-
ed bowl of potato salad, hard cooked
eggs- (these are nicer devilled), plenty
of buttered bread or rolls, and a
plentiful supply of coffee or chocolate,
or a cold beverage. Individual tarts
are a favorite dessert for this type.

feminine interference, when the time

comes for the host to serve his mas-

FOR THE ,YOUNGER BOYS
The younger boys like their mas-
culine parties also. With mother's
help before hand, it is quite surprise
ing and also very satisfying to see
just what can be done,
Mother will plan a menu and see
that all supplies are available, then
leave details and the carrying out et,
these to her small son and his guests.
And certainly from their point of
view the party will be a glorious suc-
cess. Keep the menu very simple;
scrambled eggs, baked beans and
bacon, spaghetti, with cheese anti
tomato sauce, cold meat sandwiches—
these are but a few suggestions.
