The picto- graphs, done with vermillion and sturgeon oil, depict such scenes as men in canoes or animals like the moose, elk or caribou. Likely to be seenby canoeists in the park are a number of species , of wildlife. Loons and beavers inhabit almost every lake, while the moose, bear and wolves retreat to the more re- mote portions of the par; .

During the eight days in the bush, the canoeists will travel through approximately 100 miles of Canadian wilderness. In addi- tion to the canoeing, there are many portages over which the students will have to carry their gear. • ` EACH GROUP of 15 people will be accompanied by one experi- enced naturalist guide • and two adult counselors. All gear for the trip will be supplied by the outfit- ters, Voyageur Wilderness Pro- gramme of Atikokan, Ont. Q. Is it ever permissible to tell another person about his poor pronunciation or bad grammar? A. Not unless you're his t e a c he r. No one appreciates being corrected in public, es- pecially on something so basic that he ought to know it. And this means, too, that you don't make an obvious correction of his mispronounced word in your very next sentence -- unless you really want to embarrass him. Q. i know that the brides- maids at a wedding pay for their own outfits, but who pays for their bouquets? A. These bouquets are a part of the wedding expenses, and as such, devolve upon the bride's parents. Q. Is it permissible at the table to cut a croquette with the knife? A. No. Both the cutting and eating of this item are per- formed with the, fork. Q. Is it necessary at the table to swallow each mouthful of food before taking another? A. Indeed it is! You don't stir the peas into your mashed potatoes on your plate,, and you don't mix them in your mouth either. You should take a small bite, chew it with your mouth closed, and swallow it before taking another bite. Q. Would it be all right for a girl to send a birthday card to a young man she is interested in, even though he has never sent her a card or given her a gift df ainy`kind? A. Quite all right. There can never be anything wrong or out -of -place with a gesture of friendship and thoughtfulness such as this. Q. When a house guest wishes to give his hostess a lit- tle gift of appreci' tion, when should he present it? A. He may bring it along and present it to her soon after his arrival, or send it to her soon after his return home. This, of course) does not re- lieve him of the responsibility of writing that all-important bread-and-butter letter to his hostess as soon as possible after his return borne.
