ONE WAY Guest May I haw a' more chicken to finish iicious salad with? West Has Priceless Heritage Saskstihewanr m'sbf be, termi d the epitome of Canada ireat West. No other.Provin:v has a more IntercBtine papulation, for the fabric put oi wnicn that population has been woven contains threads of so many racial cultures. Of the debt hundred and seven thousand souls recorded in the ccnu of 192G. three-fourths are Of British descent wttn English aad Scot Mood predominating. Over half a mill lion were horn in Canada, and of these , small outnotable sprinkling are of French-Canadian descent. Ninety-eight thousand were born In the British Isles. Continental Europe has added twenty-two racial strains of which the larger groups may be summarized as Slavonic (65.000), Scandinavian (20,000), Teutonic (20.000) and Romance ( 14,000). The aboriginal Indian population numbers about 13,000. Karh of these racial croups can contribute something to Canadian art and music, for each has its traditions of handicraft and folksong, traditions which mprtel my de- omail Boy May I have a bit :.:eiv of everything to finish my delicious salt with? Teaching Manual. represent an Inherent love for beautiful thisf and a love of melody. Folksong is intimately linked up with handicraft, for it is to the accompaniment of folksong that the spinning wheel turns and the beautiful homespun fa-dries are woven. TWe . fabrics can never be duplicated by the fae tory-made article, and the efforts of the Canadian Handicrafts' Guild to And and retain a market for the craft-work which can be done during the winter months on the farms of Western Canada is therefore well worthy of support. This Guild is preparing a handicraft exhibit In connection with the Folksong and Fotkmusic Festival which the Canadian Pacific is organizing to be held at Regina, March 20-23rd, as the inauguration of a Saskatchewan .Branch. The main idea of this Great West festival is to help Canadians to realise the priceless heritage which they poaaess in the traditional melodies which have been brought to this country by immigrants, and in some cases have been composed in this country by early settlers JThe field of folkmusic is so immense that only a glimpse of it can be mured tn the four days of this particular festival, but some of the greatest artists of the continent will render interpretations and it promises indeed, to be a feast of music and color. Poul Bai, the Danish baritone will feature In Norse music, Charles Marrhand in the French-Canadian folksongs and almost every nation will be represented in handicraft as in song. Above la seen a Slovak weaver who will remove his pipe and sing to his handiwork.
