Snow and Flowers.

IN A country which shows such a
great variety of geological forma-
tons as Switzerland. the seasons can
not be clearly delineated or their time
fixed as elsewhere. Here Winter and
Spring always overlap each other so
that ski-fields and gardens in full
bloom are neighbors, and startling
contrasts are achieved by nature.
Every Alpine country can boast of
sheltered, green mountain sides with
snow-clad peaks. But Switzerland
shows the incompatible contrast OF
glorious powder-snow and rich SOUTH
ern vegetation, which is aScribed to
its number of warm and respondent
lakes.
In Italian Switzerland the shores
of Lake Lugano, and along Lake Mag
giore the shores stretching from Lo-
carno to Brissago show both condi-
tons of absolute shelter from wind
and of a sunny lake-surface combined.
Here mimosaS and cameliaS are quite
at home, while snow crowns the
heights of Monte Generoso and Monte
Bre, Tamaro and Limidario.
The upper Lake of Geneva. with the
grandeur and beauty of its scenery
boasts of such famous sheltered resorts
as Territet, Montreux and Clarens
from which can be reached the ski
hills of Pleiades, Les Avants-Sonloup,
'Jaman and Rochers de Naye by rail-
way. Lake Thun has the warm shores
of Merligen, Gunten, Oberhofen and
Hilterfngen, with the Winter sport
centers of Beatenberg, Sigriswil and
Goodwill above. At GerSau, Vitznau
and Weighs figs and chestnuts ripen,
though there are masses of snow on
the Rigi maSsif.
Besides the advantages of steamer
trips on these lakes and the rare en-
joyment of great Alpine scenery, the
visitors have the benefit of expert
encing the coming of Spring several
times over and over again-frst below
with magnoliaS and roses, etc., then
on higher slopes and levels where
Spring is heralded by the appearance
of gentians, soldanelles, narcissi and
daffodilS

Puka. an atoll with a lagoon and
sandy beaches fringed with palms, was
picked as paradise by white settlers
who established there a trading post
and coconut estates. But since the
depression the white settlers have
abandoned their enterprises and left
for home. Now the natives are re-
verting to their former ;tyle CT living
The grass skirt and the loin cloth are
taking the place Of the calico Mother
Hubbard and the denim trousers, the
coconut-oil lamp is supplanting that
which burned kerosene, and the ma
tives are using shell hooks for fishing
instead of steel ones. Tea, bread and
canned meat are being discarded for

 TRIUMPH FOR
 ENTIRE CAST
Picture Now at Capitol Rep resents Highest
 Talents

"Vanessa.' now playing at the Capitol Theatre. brings two of the cinema's most brilliant stars to- gether for the first time since their great hit in Another Language.
 Helen Hayes and Robert Mont aomery are splendidly cast in the Hugh Walpole story, which tells of a woman who. loving one man with all the blind adoration Of youth, is persuaded to accept marriage with another.
 Helen Hayes has seldom equalled her performance in the role of the Walpole heroine, and certainly Mont gomery has never done a finer or more believable bit of work than as, K first the wild rogue Herries, and then as the modern Benjjie, who inherits his ancestors wild strain.
 Otto Kruger. genius Of the films, portrays the man Miss Hayes mar ries-a demented fellow who makes her life unbearable by his crafty suspicioning. Lewis Stone and May Robson. add to the characterizations. Directing the picture is David O.. Selznick, who gave the screen Viva Villa" and David Copperfield."

 tarring George O'Brien, which will be shown by Igloo No. 6, Pioneers of Alaska, at their annual show to be presented at the Coliseum The ater tomorrow night. there is one thrilling incident that resulted from blind chance.
 Thousands of cattle, maddened by thirst, em anciated and panicky through their long food abstinence, suddenly found the gate open that leads to the river on the other side, and made rush.
 George OBrien's role called for him to stand near the gate, simply watching the cattle going through. He did not fcresee that they would run through wildly and that there might be a stampede.
 While the cameras photographed the cattle rushing through, they also recorded that OBrien was swept along in the stampede, and that he lad difficult time keeping on his seet and avoiding being trampled to death.
 OBrien confessed later when res ,ued by two husky rustlers, that the grcund slipped under him faster than at any other time in his life. and that he could not explain how he kept from falling.
 Tickets for When a Mans Man" are on sale at the First National Bank and may also be purchased from members of the Pioneers Ticket Sales Committee c. w. Garter, John Beck, Lockie MacKinnon and Tom McMullen. Profits from the Pioneers annual show will be ap- piled to the upkeep of the Pioneers Section of Evergreen Cemetery.
