Beauty Flies For Speckled Beauties
St. Jovite in the mountains of Northern Quebec is famous
as a summer and winter resort. Winter times they use a
wingless aeroplane for ski joring, but in summer they put the
wings and a body on and use it for fishing and swimming. Be-
hind almost every mountain of the Laurentians there is a lake
or two so the plane comes in handy for jumping over the
hills to chase the sporting bass and trout to their lairs. The
above pretty girt one of a party of five, has just come in from a flying trip to a nearby lake and is justly proud of
tier string of speckled beauties.
