The average catch is eighty fish
Each fisherman is armed with &
long keen bladed knife, and as
soon as the catch "strikes sand
(the beach) a certain number oi
men detailed for the purpose
draw their knives and proceed tc
stab the foundering fish in the
neck. This operation IS attend
ed with great hazard, for the tail
OF the poipoise wields great pow
er; and a Whack sometimes
breaks all arm or leg.
The catch over, the boats and
apparatus are made ready for
another haul. If the haul has
not been made too late in the
day, in the presence of a great
crowd Of women and children
the skinning process begins.
The fat on the skins runs from
two to two and a half inches in
thickness. The skin are taken
to the factory, where they are
soaked III large reservoirs, from
which, after sufficient length
Of time they are transferred to
the splitting machine. Here the
blubber or fat is shaved evenly
and smoothly to a certain thick>
ness usually requiring two run-
ming to accomplish the desired
result. The skins are next
spread upon the floor and sub
jeeted to q thorough salt1ng
After 4 few days, when the salt
has permeated every pore, the
skins are carefully packed i'll
la: ge boxes and shipped North to
undergo the final process Of tan
ming.

from the dense woods and feast
upon the carCasses, that is if they
have not been hastily gathered
up and carted off to the boiling
house. Here they are subjected
to a long and thorough stealnlng,
until the bones leave the flesh.
The flesh is dried out into Oil
while the bones, mixed with
other ingredients, are ground up
in the rolling mill, and so the
porpoile eventually reaches the
market in 2oo-pound sacks OF
phosphate.
A great deal depends upon the
condition Of weather as to the
number of catches during the
week. Sometimes, in extremely
rough weather, the crews must
content themselves with watch

The songs were all wei rendered and this
fact proves the benefit of the vocal exercises

shaw made some remarks, showing that our
school has now eighty volumes in its library,
sixty four volumes, together with an oak
book case, having been secured with the pro-

She also showed that more than half of the
books are in constant circulation, which is an
impetus to more exertion to enlarge the Ii
