Successful Lecture
Interesting Slides of the Great North

From the spectacularly Illuminated
truck, in which he arrived, to the last
word picture, the appearance of L..

auditorium last night was a delights
fully striking affair. The truck *
furnished by the BureSu of CONNER

perfect example Of the visual pos
sibilities conceived by the director,

Mir. Armstrong illustrated, his
wonderful lecture on the great out of
doors with nearly hundred slides
and four reels of motion pictures.
The p;ctures were al colorcl and
beautiful beyond description and
many cf them were taken in the Ca
madam Rockies under seemingly i'm
possible condition. In many of the
mountain climbing pictures the cam
era man had to be tiel to the climb
ers. and not only had to share thci:
dangers and difficult; in climbing,
but also had to carry and manage
the camera and take the pictures as
he went.
But while the pictures were indeed
striking the lecture was even more
so. After an experience of for:y
years travelling in the northwest and
with contagious elonuence possessed
by few. the lecturer had no difficulty
in taking every one o. his hearers
graphiclly with him in his interesting
