Red-blooded citizens will find much
to entertain and instruct in the mo.
ton pictures of Arthur j. Ayles
worth gathered about him at the
the wilds of Canada and Alaska in
search of big game. MIR. Aylesworlh
is well known in sporting and theat,
rical circles. He was the business
manager for Virginia Harmed and
other stage celebrities, and is wide.
ly known as hunter and crack shot.
Though the siXty-nve hundred feet
Of film show many interesting details
OF the difficulties and hardships Of
the trip through an unsurveyed will
derness of snow capped peaks and
barren plains the adventures of the
expedition could only be narrated in
a book. The party which Mr.. Ayles-
worth gatherer about him at the
start numbered ten persons, but
were numerous guides, and the con-
tingent was frequently doubled in
size for weeks at time. Edmonton
was the point of departure and 1t
was here that Mr.. Aylesworth spent
several months in planning the equip
ment of the expedition.
Only few edibles could be car
ried such as coffee, sugar, -four beans
and bacon. The sugar was carried
in lump form, because Mr.. Ayles-
worth had learned by sad experience
that bursting bags of granulated SUI
gar nave a much higher percentage
of loss than bags of block sugar.
Leaving Edmonton, the trail swung
north and west into the Yukon dis.
trict, thence east and south-an ir-
regular loop that embraced over 5000
miles Pack horses, dog sleds, canoes
and rough barges formed the means
OF transportation.
During the course of the trip every
form of wild animal common to
North America was shot with lens
or bullet. Deer, caribou, bear, lynx,
antelope, mountain sheep, moose.

bison are among those present on
the valuable films secured. Remark
able photographs of these various
beasts, at close and long range show
them in their native regions and
give an excellent idea of their hab-
it sof life.
Not only has Mr.. Aylesworth pro
cured pictures of the animals ''in
every day life," but he has numer.
GUS pictures of himself and his com.
panions in the act of pursuing and
shooting the specimens.
There are several scenes of unusu-
al interest in the films. One shows
the roping of bear which has been
freed by dogs; another, a great herd
of bison being driven about at full
gallon by mounted cowboys. The
herd charges straight at the camera
and then pitts and disappears on
each side.
Various methods of trapping diff
ferent species are shown. The traps
are actually built before the specta.
seen held in their iron Jaws. A huge

log through the woods. Bear traps,
It might be explained, are always at
tached to loose logs, because the
bear, If he cannot move the trap in
which he is caught, will gnaw off the
imprisoned paw and escape.
The party has recently returned to
civilization and the pictures taken
on the trip have caused considerable
comment on the part Of those fortu
nate enough to have seen them.

The Gaucho.

The gaucho, or cowboy of the plains
" the basin OF Rio de la Plata, has
been celebrated IN song and story
quite as much as has his prototype in
North America, to which he closely
corresponds. The gaucho is not al"
ways, however, a cowboy; he is oc-
casionaily a rover and his intimate
knowledge Of frontier life has been OF
great value in the gradual develop
meut OF Argentina's vast Patagonian
wilderness.

TRUTH OR FALSESHOOD?
Miss Ballantyne's face was a study.
Astonishment, hope. and fear struggled
for expression. Rutherford, however,
after the first instants amazement, was
keen to investigate the claim of this new
conner to being the accredited agent. There
were altogether too many unexpected
things taking place in the involved tangle
of necklace and buckle for him to allow
this meeting to go uninvestigated. he
glanced over his shoulder to see If Held
erman were returning, but without result.
He looked this newcomer over graVely,
and the man returned his gaze In an
even more searching manner, thanks 10

briskly.
"Oh!" Miss Ballantyne merely breathed
the exclamation: but 1t showed that she
was vainly trying to reconcile this mans
claim to credence with the financier's pre-
tensions.
Rutherford could follow her thought, as
he was going over In his own mind tho
whole of Helderman's conversation. He
could sec how ambiguous 1t was-how

PLAN WAR TAX SOCIAL
Epworth League of Stevens Memorial
Church to Entertain Six Hundred

The fact that the social affair to be
given by the Epworth League of the
Stevens Methodist church on the even
ing of February 4, is called a "War
Tax Social has led many to suppose
that the affair is being planned for the
relief of the Belgian sufferers. This
is not the ease. The name was given
because OF the similarity of the price
of the admittance cards to a war tax
and the tax was made as low as pos
sible with the sole idea of making the
social self supporting. proposition.
And supplying refreshments to six hun
dred people-the limit set for tickets
sold-with a charge of only three cents
will require quite little careful plan
ming. But it will be done, and the plans
for getting the six hundred folks ac-
quainted with one another are as
unique as the name itself.
This social will be the church s of
fetal reception to the members who
have become affiliated with this par
tieular church during the past year, and
special efforts are being made TO see
that all of these new members have op-
portunity to procure one of the war
tax cards.
Because of the fact that it will not
be feasible to serve refreshments to
more than six hundred people in one
evening, the sale of tickets will be linn
tied to this number, and admittance to
the social will be confined strictly to
those having the cards.
