He told the audience Cana~ dians took great pride in the li- terary genius England has pro vided down through the ages and cited particularly Shakes

One of the top numbers of- fered delightful savagery as it pictured the war dance of the Indian brave while appropriate- ly dressed maidens looked on in obvious approval. Another hu- morous performance was more difficult to define as it might have depicted the opening of the hunting season or the mat- ing dance of the moose.
