water is thus ideal, and q swim
before breakfast is most re-
freshing. There is fourteen feet
Of water at that point, and a
sandy beach has been i'm
provised for sunbathing purposes
beside the dock.
The best beach Of all, how
ever, is that on the east shore
of Lake Commandant, opposite
and south of Indian Island. A
new trail has been recently cut
here running north and then
east to Little Spring Lake; south
to Clear Lake, and then west,
back to the shore of Lake Com
mandant. Then it follows the
waters edge northwards to the
beach. This makes delightful
walk, to be finished with a re-
freShing dip, or Sunbath.
There are also wonderful
swimming places Wnere the
rocks drop steep and sheer into
the water, and one may dive
with perfect safety.
Many tennis tournaments are
played out on the excellent
courts of the Seigniory Club,
and many skeet shoot matches
have taken place at the traps
located at the horseshow
The Washington times., 1934-08-04

The Seigniory Club is located
near Montebello, Quebec, with
its own post office address of
Seigniory Club, Province Of
Quebec, Canada.
In the past it was known as
"Lucerne-in-Q Quebec" but this
name has been discontinued,
officially.
It is on the north side Of the
Ottawa River. As miles east of
the city of Ottawa, capital of
Canada, and Is 80 miles by road
west of Montreal.
Log Cabin Settlement
Arriving in. the heart Of the
cool woods, one finds the main.
residence of the club, the Log
Chateau, surrounded by pri-
vately owned log cabins. used
by their owners both in summer
and winter, as the winter sports
at the club add much to its
charm as a pleasure haven for
all the year around.
In the summer, the sports
consist mainly of fishing, Skeet
shooting, tennis, swimming, and
hiking.
The Seigniory Club fish
hatchery has become so famous
for it's fine specimens which
have been shared with some Of
the other clubs in the north
country that club fish are to be
found in some waters hundreds
of miles distant.
The trout from Green Lake,
near the club, stocked with fish
in previous seasons from the
hatchery, have matured so
splendidly they weigh from two
to three pounds on an average
and are splendid fighters,
thereby giving the true fisher
man a great thrill.
Fine Swimming
The bathing and swimming
facilities have been greatly i'm
proved in. the last few years. A
raft and small tower have been
rugged out in midstream from
the dock above the falls in the
Salmon River. The river drains
the tempered surface water from
Lake Commandant, which is
easily holding its level this year,
due to the heavy rains earlier
in the season.

Tiny Tropical Fish
Predict Heat

VANCOUVER, B. c., Aug. 4.
Capt. A. j. HALEY, R.N.R., big,
bearded commander of the Ca
madam Pacific liner Empress
of Canada which reached port
the other day from the Orient
and Honolulu, said his ship
had literally ploughed through
schools of flautilus or "Portu-
guese men-o'war", off the Ca
nadian-American shore, but he
declined to base any weather
predictions on this phenom-
enon.
The tiny tropical fish whose
peculiar dorsal fin looks like
a miniature sail are supposed,
when found in northern
waters, to indicate a warm
dry summer for north temper
ate zones.
Capt. A. J. Hosken, COM
mander of the Empress of Rus
sia, so interpreted it several
years ago but voluntarily re-
signed as a meteorological pro-
phet when his discovery back
fired, uShering in one of the
wettest summers on record.
Captain HALEY, commenting
on the presence of the Portu-
guese men-o-war on the inward
course, made a guarded state
ment. 1T may mean a warm,
dry summer, he said, and then
again it may indicate a cold,
wet summer"

st. Stephens Day is set aside

national holiday second to none
in the country's list of festivals,

The story of st. Stephens
Day goes back to the Tenth
century. Geysa, fourth duke of
Hungary, was with his wife,
converted to the Catholic faith
and saw in vision the Martyr
st. Stephen, who told him he
would have a son to continue
the work ended when the mar
tyr was stoned to death.
The son was born A. D. OFT
and received the name of
Stephen. He was carefully edu-
Gated and succeeded his father
at an early age. He began to
root out idolatry, suppressed q
rebellion of his pagan subjects
and founded churches and
monasteries all over the land.
His only wars were those Of
defense and in these he was
always successful. He died on
the feast of the Assumption,
A. D. 1898.

larly scheduled foe. A week or
so ago, Coach Woodworth'S team
stacked up against the Roosevelt

This game was more for prac-
tice than anything else, but today
Woodwork and his lads will be
shooting for a real victory, since
it will boost their morale for next
weeks interhigh series skirmish
against Western.
st. Johns game against Eastern
should result in another loss for
the Little Cadets, who have lost
to Western and Central already
this season, but this will be in no
way a disgrace, as the Holbrook-
coached eleven is still too green
at this hour of the campaign to
give a good account of itself.
To play or not to play at night
seems to be the big question anent

on the fence as to date, place and
time.

nounced the annual game would

Now, there is a holdup. The
big reason is Tech. The Manual
Trainers do not want to play Oc-
tober 81. Instead they'd rather
play on the afternoon of Tuesday,
October %, the original date, with
the Central Stadium as the site.
What will finally be decided
upon is a question. School chief
tains were to gather together in
another one of those special meet
ings today to reach some sort Of
decision.
In the meanwhile. scholastic
followers are patiently awaiting
an official announcement of date,

ton probably will be carried out
providing Tech can be talked into
the thing.
