clubs, under the auspices of which the
bonspiel will be held, have made prepara.-
tions for the entertainment Of over zoo

most successful in the history Of the as
ISOLATION. Secretary j. c.. Wall, who has
the work of making the arrangements In
charge, says the best rinks all through
the Northwest have promised to be III
attendance. The only thing needed to
make the meeting q success is ice. Thera

five sheets of covered ice and adjoining 1t
there are seven that are not under cover,
The ice which is covered Is in good con-
dition and the curriers' are taking every
precaution to keep it so.
