CG. F. Leigh, of Mayo, Yukon, in addressing a Women's Auxiliary in this city, He added a séquel to the account of the In- dian women's gift to their church by relating that an American min- ister, visiting the mission, was so struck by the beauty of their work that he offered them $3,000 for the pieces. The women, in true In- dian fashion, retired to hold a pow wow over the matter, and their spokes women then said they would make duplicates to the price offered, but that the original pieces were no longer theirs to give. However the offer was not accept- ed by the visitor, The Yukon is a fascinating place in all seasons, declared Rev. Mr. Leigh.

ENGLISH OPERAS TOPIC OF ADDRESS Professor Hutton Addresses Extension Class on Gilbert and Sullivan Operas Principal Maurice Huttan is al- ways a welcome visitor in Oshawa, Though his subject dealt mainly with Gilbert and Sullivan, the lec- turerer delighted his audience by frequent references to Greek poetry and philosophy, to French |and Spanish literature, and to | many of the great ~ English au- | thors. He not only trought out the { salient features of Gilbert's writ- | ings, but he discussed many of the | great problems of life, both ancient and modern. In dealing with Gilbert the lec- turer analyzed the terms humorist satirist, cynic, comedian, misan- thrope or wit. The humorist's chief work was that of drawing compari- sons between our professions and our practice. A satirist shows up the seamy side of life and hates it..A misanthrope does the same, but has no hope of altering it. A comedian was just one who makes fun of everything and provokes a laugh. A wit was a man with a clever way of saying things: his strength was a mere verbal thing, not a matter of temperament. Goldwin Smith was a wit when he said in regard to Patrick Henry, "Give me liberty or give me death, and bought another slave". Gilbert was mainly a comedian sn" a wit. He loved to make fun of things. He is rarely serious, Sullivan was a much greater mus! cian than Gilbert was a poet. His music is often serious and senti- mental.- The words of the song of Lady Jane in "Patience" are fine mockery, but the music is delight- ful. Sullivan's 1 usic has been called cheap because it is ,popular, "Is a thing to be condemned because it is popular?" tho lecturer ask ed. "That most popular of sol- dier's songs "Tipperary", says Ethel Smith, "would have delight- ed Schubert." Plato holds that the quality of a thing must be decided by the experts, while Aristotle as- gerts that the voice of the ordinary man is not likely to be wholly wrong. The lecturer concluded that of Gilbert and Sullivan's operas could continue with undim- inished popularity for seventy yearg they must have Intrinsic merit, that merit belonged more to Sullivan's music than to Gil bert's words, Yet,it was a happv combination, a combination that greatly enhanced the of both men to the world. The lecturer referred td Gilbert and Sullivan's quarrel--a fact which separated them for severai years, Gilbert 'a vulgar, stupid matter of fact Englishman" ob- jected to a cortain new carpet in their theatre, while Sullivan fav- oured it, "Patience" was the best opera they produced, according to Dr. Huttan. It contains real poetry. Here we have Gilbert's "Swin- burman-jingle" at its best. It makes great fun of that aesthetic movement at Oxford (led by Wal- ter Pater and Oscar Wilde) "with its hectic and hysterical passion for the aesthetic ang the beautiful and its insistence of aesthetic ties of soothing soft colours." Many charming passages were recited, revealing Gilbert's delight- ful humour. Who can help being sorry for modern royalty after hearing that passage from the "Gondoliers" about kings who eign, but do not rule? But the humorist as he ages is apt to 'become too serious (like Lewis Caroll) or too acid, In his last opera, 'Utopia' Gilbert .sat- irizes society, with less geniality and more bitterness than former- ly. It was time for him to cease writing and he did. Gilbert can hardly claim an ex- alted place in. literature, but if in 2 world so dull and so full of care he has made us laugh he surely deserves our warmest gratitude, Principal Huttan will / lecture next week on 'Gladstone and Disraeli", value NOTIC To avoid any grave mistakes the KEditor of the Women's Page asks its readers that when submitting any notes for the page tke sender wil) also submit his or her name, address and telephone num. ber.

To make doubly sure, Chatterer visited every stump, hollow log and hollow tree. : "I knew it," declared Chatterer, talking to himself, "Peter Rabbit doesn't know what he's talking about. Whitefoot the Wood Mouse certain- ly hasn't a home around here, Still, now I think of it, I have seen him about two or three times, It didn't occur to me to wonder what he was doing over here on the edge of Green Forest.
