The Dome Girl Guldes would like you specially to patronize their tea and exhibition of Christmas madeâ€"over toys to be held on Saturday in the Dome community hall. In addition to finding something really to admire in the way these small people have workâ€" ed in their efforts to provide less forâ€" tunate children with Christmas toys (Scorts also helped) you will be giving them an opportunity to send them to the settlers‘ children, by providing the necessary express fees with which to do so.

I was very much pleased with these water colours and wonder how old the young lady is. I wonder if you mean for me to keep these drawings or whether you want them returned. I am interested to keep them, if I may, since I have already shown them as an example of Mr. Hamilton‘s suggestion was followâ€" ed and this week reply was received in flattering way from Miss Miller. Not only did Miss Miller express keen apâ€" preciation of the talent of the young artist, but she gave more material exâ€" pression to her approval and interest by sending autographed copies of her book on Bliss Carmen to Miss Betty and to the teacher of art at the Timâ€" mins High School. Miss Miller, who is an enthusiastic on Bliss Carmen and his poetry, has just issued a volume that will be of great interest to all conâ€" cerned in Canadian literary matters. The handsome little volume is entitled "Bliss Carmenâ€"a Portrait", and deals in talented way with the life and poetry of the late Bliss Carmen. It is a volume that any Canadian would be proud itc own. Curling started on Tuesday evening. One sheet of ice is ready at the rink and a friendly game was held to try out the ice.

For a girl of her age, the work was remarkable Mr. Hamilton said. He was particularly impressed with two water colours illustrating poems by the late Bliss Carmen. One of the illusâ€" trations was entitled ‘"The Vagabond Song." and the other "The Daffodils." Mr. Hamilton commented on the oriâ€" ginality and creative instinct of the young artist who without assistarce from others had caught the spirit of the Carmen poems and had given most interesting illustrations for the poet‘s verses. Mr. Hamilton insisted that the two water colours should be submitted to Miss Muriel Miller, of Fredericton, New Brunswick, who had just issued a sketch of the late Bliss Carmen and who would be sure to be much interâ€" ested in the interpretation given by the young artist to the poet‘s verses.
