When a cat with only two legs gave birth to a litter of kittens at the little mining town of Kim- berly. Nevada. most folk who knew about the increase thought the kit- tens could not servive because their mother would not be able to pro- vide for them. But folks reckon- ed without considering a certain male friend.

Each day the loyal old Torn would bring fresh meat in the form of mice. rats and so on and lay them at the mother's feet. Thereafter the mother cat had many litters. and each time her male friend provided them with food. '

James Pendergset

Mr. Frank E. Woodside of Van- couver. B. C.. Manager of-the Yukon and British Columbia Cham- ber of Mines. is at present enjoy- ing s. short vacation in the Prov- ince. He is familiar with the topography and geology of both Yukon and British Columbia and has first hand knowledge of their hydro and mineral potentials. lie has been a resident of B. C. since 1896. hsvlng worked his way west by easy stages and arrived in Ven- couver at the age of 18 years. He always had that "indescribable something" which makes the dif- ference between a leader and a foi- lower.-

In his youth, Mr. woodside spent some time in day-labor and pros- pecting for high-grade metah lie helped materially in putting the laboring class on I living wage in B. C. I-Ia eLso did considerable exploration work and is familiar with all the better known trails in B. C.end Yukon. in perpetua- tion of his name is ”Mount Wood- side" in the Coast Range section of B. 0.

Mr. Woodside now devotes most of his attention to base metals, viz. asbestos. nickel, iron, tin, etc. Gold and silver mines are not now por- fitsbie, considering the high cost of wages and comparatively, low price for the one-time precious metals. he said.

At present, Mr. Woodside is oc- cupied in promoting the multi- milliion dollar proposed power- plant on the head waters and lakes of the Yukon river system. if the project goes ahead, it will be the largest of its kind in the world - with many obstacles to overcome. It is a long story, on which the writer hopes to deline- atc, digress and cxpatiate in the near future.

Mr. Woodside belongs to the large family of the late John H. Wood- side of Hamilton. P. E. 1. He has spent his annual vacations in his much. beloved native province. and among home folks for several years in succession. The 'Home Foiks' always get a real "Island" welcome at the Chamber of Mines in Vancouver.

It appears to this writer that; reading, writing and spelling ari- not getting enough attention in our schools. The cumulative a- mount of education scquirod by present day pupils of our education- al institutions is no doubt greater but for a. certainty it is no more thorough than that dispensed and incuicated by the teachers of fifty years ago.

Thai Saturday Evening Post, some years ago printed lists oi words mls-spelled in manuscripts sent. It was deplorable that writ- ers should have such devil-may care attitude in their iilerary ef- forts. In reading or spesking a mis-placed accent may be con- doned, but in writing a mis-spelled word is anathema. The partial elimination of Latin will reduce our vocabularies - possibly to the limit of "Chinook" which refers only to thi s of everyday life Barter, grub c. -

This writer is in accord with the study of French beginning in the lower grades, in order to get the pupils familiar to sound of the syllables. English speaking people should endeavour to learn pro- per pronuncietion of the French language. It is a beautiful, reson- ant, meliifluous language. which will always be used to great ad- vantage in our Canadian economy and public relations. French speak- ing Canadians are becoming cognizant 'of the necessity of learning English.

The ability to speak the dual languages will promote better re- lations and solve the trivial dif- ierences which occasionally arise. English speaking Cansdians' form- er prejudices are being gradually broken down. The learning of the French language will accelerate the sweet accord which exists between the two great races in Canada. with English acumen and business promotion and French culture end the inherited adventurous spirit of the Voyageurs dominating the con- course, Canada is in s position to become a. great nation. French Canadian forces served Canada for Britain in 1775 and i512.
