TAirw wrmri- that t rh.riM v British sailors who visited these Islands In the early dsys are unanimous In their praise of the graceful lines of! their csnoes. Their warlike foreign expeditions, from which they carried back laves to the island, and the difficulty f pursuing them to their retreats on the fiords of their homeland, made them i the most d reeded pople of the coast. ' (ilttlltM IM.lMi j Being 65 miles in width at the north and almost 80 miles In length. Oraham Island has about the same area as Prince Edward Island. While there are no good harbors on the east coast, the west, north and south coasts have several, and tbejr. together with Masset Sound. Masset Inlet and their exten sions, bring almost every portion of the Island within easy distance of deep water oommnnicaUons. That keen observer, the laic Dr. Ceo. Dawson, of the Geological Survey of Canada, In the report of his Investigation In 1879, says: The Queen Charlotte Islands may be regarded as a partly submerged mountain range, being a continuation northwestward of that oi Vancouver Island, and the high region of the Olympian Mountains of the north-western angle of Washington territory. There Is. however, a wloe attachment of low level lahd, forming the whole north-eastern part of Oraham Island."

Dotted along these roads were .settlers' shacks.. The smallness of the clearings and the deserted look of the buildings testified to the report that the bachelor settlement had moved out almost en masse at the beginning of the War. and that but few of them had returned. Flying along the north shore between Tow Kill and Massett, motor cars were seen on the besch. These were found later to celong to the Langara Packing and Fish Co.. who operate a clam cannery at Tow Hill and transport the finished produce of the cannery in Ford cars along the shore to the wharf at Masset. The sands between Tow HiU and a few miles from Mssset are beautifully firm and white, and at low tide, when art Journeys must be made, form a beautiful apeedway. broken only by the mouth of a couple ct small rivers which necessitate detours inland to bridges where'' hey can be crossed.

In addition to a picturesque Indian village, wUh its line of totem poles and. contrary to expectation, well-kept houses, there Is a white settlement with a good store owned by a Mr. Martin, who settled there with the pioneers of white scttlemenk in 19C8. a couple of hotels, an Anglican mission, a school, and a nine-hole golf course. The flight down Masset Sound was beautiful In the extreme. The Sound it self is 19 miles long, has an average width of about mile, a&d 10 to 13 fathoms deep. ' The ' courltry on either aide rises to a height of about a cou pie of- hundred feet above sea level, and for the first mile or so back Is coverrd with a fine growth of spruce, cedar and hemlock. Inland the umber, though not so fine, was still s heavy growth with open spaces here and there, bus not such extensive ones as were seen, near Cape Ball on the east coast. About half-way dou the Sound the Wallace Cannery was passed near the mouth the Woden River. Running along Kum dls Slough to Oraham Centre some fairly extensive clearings were seen, and one fairly large herdol Aberdeen-Angus cattle was passed. Crossing to the coast over Meyer Lake and past Lake Hlekey. the Old Tom trail was again seen. Here the country la alternating tundra and bush. From Dead Tree Point to Queen Charlotte City the country Is a high table-land, some of It over 1.000 feet high, and is. for the most part, covered with a dense growth of timber. Queen Charlotte City, which Is plo tuesquely situated on Skldrgate Inlet, has hotel, a couple ot stores, a restaurant, a school, a smaU hospital, a telephone station, and a saw mill.

The Well-Managed Home nnHE manager of a household is the purchas-. ing agent for a large proportion of the family needs. In order to do a good job she must know what, when and where to buy. She must study goods and the concerns which make goods and have them to sell. She must put her home on a business basis and run it on business principles in order to make the most of the family income. Information is the only basis for intelligent purchc sing. And the right way to get the greatest amount of necessary information is to read the advertisements. Advertisements tell you what is new and good in merchandise. 'They reveal improvements and inventions to male your home life easier, more comfortable and more convenient. They give you information about a thousand and one things that are use ill. Every manager oj a household every member oj the household who shares the responsibility for the family's Welfare should mae xa habit oj reading the ads.

The weather was good at the start, but at Dawson Hal bor a heavy rainstorm wes encountered with stormy weather ahead, so the plane put about and returned to Queen Charlotte City.
