instructive moving pictures oi
scenes made during his vacation
last summer. He visited Canada

particularly interesting pictures
were made of places that were un-
inhabited few years ago. Dense
forests reached by roads blasted
through solid rock are now the site
of a thriving city of a population
OF three thousand and still growing.
The people are engaged in Telling
trees and preparing the lumber for
shipment to be made into wood pulp
for making paper for large news
paper firms in Chicago. New York,
and elsewhere.
The pictures were in colors and
the pupils enjoyed tthe picturesque
scenes together with their educa-
tional value.

citizenship and gave timely sugges-
tions for American Educational
Week.
