When the -pri- vilege or right to vote was granted it became an obligation. sacred and solemn that carried with it all the j duties of citizenship which we wo- men are capable of undertaking. Among these duties `is that of school trustee. Women's work with child- ren" and in their own homes pre- pares them for intelligent service on a school board from a point of view that men do not bring to the task. In every home the responsi- bility and welfare of children are shared by -motherand father and they talk matters over. Why should it not be on a school board? The child below five is constantly under the mother's care; she knows their needs and problems better than the father. Transferring from home to . school of a little child is a his and serious step. Doe-s it seem wise that atthis critical stage the man- agement of its welfare should go into hands of men? Women are more concerned with personal af- fairs of life than men. Men should supervise buildings and grounds, conduct school meetings, look after contracts, etc.. with an informed experience women lack, though there should be one woman on every schpol board, partly for good of the school. also t-he good of the woman. Every community has a woman to `fill this position and to bring to the men a` knowledge of selection of teacher, text books. etc. Women are more sensitive as to the physical welfare of children than are men. For insta ce. if the school is not properly ligh ed the mother is first to notice that the child is suf- fering from headache. If there is a woman trustee on the board she can bring the matter more readily to their attention. For the teacher's sake (especially if the teacheris a girl) she can tell a woman trustee her needs much- morethan she can to a man. Seventy per cent. of the woman trustee? Women have more time._than men to devote to prob- lems of education: not that they are more efficient than men. Edu- cation has been women's` work since the first family was organized. In every intance where a woman has been appointed school trustee or on any educational board it has proven satisfactory. -More than three-quarters of .the `teachers are. women and women are gradually . coming to hold important position in the educational world. Women shou-ld take their share of the re- sponsibility and do their share of the work. Mrs. Jias. Stoddart also gave an excellent and educative paper on Gladioius This was in part as follows; `A flower garden is a. beau- tiful .sight and repays you many er of your garden planted with gladiolus. .Is- there anything more beautiful than the colors of these flower? in selecting your stock be sure and plant good bul'bs.V'1`hese do not need to be expensive varieties.

The young man, the school teacher whom I had left in charge. looked after things well and incidentally contrived to put on 25 lbs. in weight so he must not have suffered much from lonesome- ness. He mentions how k-ind every- body was but especially my Indian housekeeper who couldn't `have been better to him. He is leaving soon for Norway House where he_ will spend "Christmas Week with his people, it being the first time in ten years he has spent Christmas at home.

Hudson : Bay Jot. to The Pas and The Pas to Miie,137, I reached the `latter place on Nov. 29 at mid- night. On Dec. 1st. early in the morning and a beautiful cold morn- ingit was--we set M1 `for Cross I Lake. an Indian who was looking for some way to get to Cross Lake going with me. It was not an easy trip bylany `means as both horse and man were soft and green and ` .I had a very big load. Furthermore I have brought with me an extra large toboggan which, while requir- ` ing a little more muscle to manage, is as everyone who has seen it ad- -mits. the pure thing for horse freighting by toboggan. I can quite easily haul 1000 lbs. of average freight on it. It took us the usual two days to reach `Cross Lake and believe me I was glad to sit down in the Mission House. I had very poor moccasins for the trip and as a consequence my feet were so sore I could scarcely stand on them. Other than a few `spots amound my nose I had escaped frost bites. We stayed over at -Cross Lake three days and on Tuesday morning with two good men and a dog team, we struck off for `Oxford House over trails that are very very seldom used. We had a good trail -for a day and a "half but the rest of the five days was over unbroken trails and lake _and river. The men went a- head and prepared the way by cut- ting down trees and branches. Of course easily'nine-tenth-s of the trip was over lake and river so there really wasn't much cutting to do. I left those men at the Carrot River and they returned from there to Cross Lake while `I -finished the trip with an Oxford II-Iouse man who is camped at the -Carrot River. The last day `I pushed` the horse right along and we made 40 miles in se- ven hours which is roughly speak- ing the hours of daylight we have up `here. less one hour for dinner.

The new horse. being bigger and stronger than Tommy, is a much more satisfactory worker but allthe same he isn't as good on the trail. It is very beau- tiful up -here now; we have such a fine lot of sunshine and even though it is cold it doesn't seem to be whenone looks out the window. Our `Christmas preparations are not very elaborate this year. We will be having the usual tree but Nelson being away is going to make things '8. bit difficult for me.

Mr. Kell tells a yarn of the In- dian Agent through an interpreter trying -to persuade the Indians up there to accept the Government's offer of a yoke of oxen to cultivate `some""iand and relieve the famine conditions which often exist. Said he. all they would have to do would be, put up sufficient hay. The in- terpreter made it fish and hay." They turned it down flat: a dog could get along on fish, that was bother enough. 'Rev. L. Atkinson. Mr. Keii s predecessor, took in the first horse and cow. Now several` Indians have cows and are realizing the benefit. Mr. Kell has taken in another horse and some farm im- plements to cultivate some land, as potatoes. and vegetables of all kinds grow fine there.
