Mr. Patrick Collins, M.P., in a letter which appeared in the Times recently, has put forward a proposal which will the interest and enlist, the arouse London journal thinks the support of lovers of music in general.

I was fortunate in spending a few days there last summer, and in seeing the start of the boundary survey party that was to make the final boundary on the heights of the Rockies between Alberta and British Columbia. If you have travelled across Canada and Winnipeg has been the last place you stayed at, your first impression of alighting at Jasper will be thus: Why, it is just like the films. Bard by the little sta- tion platform is a huge totem pole, rude- ly painted and gaudily carved, weirdly reminiscent of the mysticism of the Red Indian True, there are no Indians in paint and feathers on the platform they wear shirts and trousers these days-but there are men in sombreres and the rough woolly or the smooth leather chaps that we have seen them wearing on the films. They wear beaded or embroidered couts, too, antl altogether are most pis turesque, but lack the shooting irons and 6m habit of their frequent use.

Another impressing is. that de moun tains are not so high as in Switzerland. True, but the whole effet is vaster, niightier and less crowded together. In Switzerland, you must either go up or down, you cannot go far an level ground; but here you are perched high on a plateau, and you can walk or ride for miles on practically level totor roads or trails.

After a threemiles drive you arrive at the hotel, which is entirely ja keeping with its surrounding. No palace here, but spacious log bungalow, with fower decked porch, where you dine overlooking the lake. Ench family or party has its separate bungalow, entirely deinched, a delightful arrangement that makes for privacy. It looks like a log cabin, but it has its own bath-room, telephone, elec tric light, and even central heating, for the nights are sometimes cell.

Few Canadian women wear skirts in the mountains, neat knickerbocker suita being preferred for riding and hiking. As they call their long tramps. Of sporting joys I cannot speak, but wan- dering through forests of inckpine dr spruce there are wonderful wild flowers to rejoice the heart of the botanist, there is bathing and canaring in the lakes; there is joy and beauty everywhere; but best of all is the pure tonic freshness of the mountain air, and the abiding calm that restores the tired spirit add gives it new life.

Ward Mair writing in the Daily Mail Bays:
