The need and value of this work is shown• by one incident, Some years ago a Steamer ran on a boulder reef 'a considerable distance from shore. A period of Calm 'weather permitted the saving of the steamer, but the knowledge of the elstence of this 'reef, of which 'the exact location Was not known, Was a.cause ;of anxiety' to nevigeeers.

The north arm .ofthe lake is 'aurrannded by a district rich in furs' and minerals, Surveys con- liicted into this region during the past 'season resulted in the discovery and mapping of nearly 1,000' small, new is-, lands, the correotion of the location of Fort Rae, -..by some 20 mites in .longi- tude; and the Rbding of a connected' body ofwater over 80 miles, long, The eastern arm of Great Slave. lake was 'surveyed. in 1922, Explora- tion the past.season was directed into the country -lying to its east and north.
