Wathen of New Liskeard, will fly from North Bay to Ber- muda for Easter Week. Mr. Y.+. Lickley, Sr., has taken over the job of looking after the trip, due to the death of the late Mr. P. R.

KINSMEN MEET The regular dinner meeting of the Kinsmen Club was held at the Hotel Haileybury on Monday, January 28th.

M. Award in 1951. Mr. Walli ex- plained clearly the workings ot the geiger counter and its uses and limitations in prospecting. The sentiments of all those pre- sent were expressed by Mr. J. Armstrong, when in thanking him he pointed out the meeting felt extremely fortunate in having a local resident address the Branch on such an interesting subject which he so capably handled. The next meeting of the Branch will be on February 22nd. _ Dr. Meen of the Royal Museum, To- ronto, will speak on the Ungava crater. Interest of and Approval of Trap-Line Management Policy Further evidence of interest in and approval of the trap-line management policy inaugurated by Ontario's Lands and Forests department five years ago comes from Cayuga, where trappers of that area gathered recently to discuss trapping conditions with department officials. Outcome of the conference was the organiza- tion of a trappers' council. Cay- uga trappers intend to hold regu-- lar future meetings to discuss problems relating to trap-line ar- rangements. Similar organiza- tions are being formed in other parts of the Lake Erie district. Department wildlife officials are pleased to note the growing interest being shown by trappers in fur-bearing animal manage- ment and appreciate the splendid co-operation being evinced in many directions throughout On- tario by trappers. They are con- fident that it will lead, ultimately, to more efhcient management, generally, of this important econ- omic resource. Fur trading is not a thing of the past in Canada by any means. In 1950, in the Northwest Terri- tories alone, it was a big business worth $2,500,000. CANAPAR Cookery Parchment Preserves all Vitamins and Mineral Salts SAVES - Food Values.
