Old timers report bears were quite common in early days and otter were frequent- ly encountered but the industrious beaver were evidently overlooked.

About 45 years ago this oolumnr ist was shown a section of wood approximately 2 feet long and inches in diameter by the Peter Horton that he had while cutting peat in a Mount Albion.‘ Teeth marks were plainly discemable and the cuttlrg was undoubtedly the work of beav- er. The piece of wood moon do‘ teriorated on being exposed to the air. The late Robert Jenkins.

I ound that during the passag across the Strait one of the beav- er had coca. from its cage and in the chase around the boat, that finally ended in the engine room, was injured in sortie manner and died shortly after he- ing returned to its cage.

The lone beaver was given its liberty at Mount Albion. We call- ed it a ‘he’ as lt was 0f very largo size. One guess was probably as good as another but we always re- ferred to him as the ‘old bachelor.’

Next to the advent of the "atomic age" and its impending implica- lions nothing has stirred interest more, locally. the past week than the relative values of raises. wicks. chaps and lie, in-tums, out-turns, and even "scuttlers". The relative decisions, on the respective probs, reached by delegates to the U.N.,O. Conference and galle skips at the Charlottetown Curl Club are about equal.

'i‘o really know curling, many an old-timer will stand-by the point system. In this particular type of play the curler learns every shot of the game which a skip could possibly call. Every known situa- tion that could arise in a match is "setup" and the novice is given an opportunity to see. in a practical way, the results achieved.
