been able TO get over rough ground. She
killed several caribou and bear and was
the constant companion of her husband
and guides, carrying besides her rife .
large camera. with which she photo
graphed the big game as it fell under the
aim of Mr.. Burnham. Mrs. Burnham is
an unusually clever shot for a woman
and can knock over a moose or 8 noun
tain sheep as well as any man. She had
roughed it on hunting trips before, but
asserts that the Alaskan trip was q bit
more rigorous than any of the others

Speaking of his trip. Captain Burn
ham said I'VE had the grandcst time
ever. and think shall return there next
season in search of more big game. Not
one of our party suffered much from the
cold or from hunger. everything being ~
well as one could expect.
Il think the Cassiar Mountain region
and the surrounding country is the great
est big game hunting territory in the
Western Hemisphere. Big game of all
descriptions is very plentiful This may
be judged from the record I made in kill
ing five bears in two and one-half min
utes. The bears were punched when I
came upon them and all of them dropped
in their tracks.
my wife is the first white woman to
have gone into that region and have re-
turned with the honor of having kelled
some of the finest big game in North
America. She enjoyed every minute Of
the entire hunt and proved the equal of
many men in bringing down big game.
The weather was very good through
out and the rainfall was unusually light.
A few strong winds came up at times dur
ing our trip, but they died without giving
US much inconvenience.

Wellesley that many of the girls are de-

Emulating their older sisters in all

field hockey, and the game bids fair to
become more popular in America than It
has been in England, whence it was i'm

Field hockey is a strenuous game and
gives a maximum amount Of exercise in
a minimum space of time. yet even those
physical directors who condemn many of
the sports which women have followed of
late agree that the playing of field hockey
is benefit unalloyed. There is extremely
little danger of injury when the game is
properly played, and while it makes one
supple, strong and 1.-the, it does not de-
velop abnormal muscles, which mar rather
than enhance the physical beauty of
women. 1t is a game which seems to

Il travelled three thousand miles, he
said, ito catch q certain kind Of small

SO will the sea trout off the Florida coast.

women's colleges have teams and ocea-
sionally intercollegiate contests are held.
At Bryn Mawr and at Mount Holyoks
there are class teams for field hockey

letics for women are trying to bring about

played. ...
The uniform in which women play
field hockey consists Of . plain black
skirt, flannel shirt waist and knicker-
boekers to be worn under the skirt. The
skirt itself Is required BY rule to be at
least six inches from the ground. Foot
gear is mostly . matter Of choice, but
for the backs and the goalkeeper boots
are usually preferable, because the ball
must be frequently stopped with the feet.
The length of time to be played is al

never an indication Of how long the game
