PHOTOGRAPHING WILD LIFE

After a three years' hunt with the camera in tho almost unknown Laird River district in north-wostern Canada, H. A. Stewart and John Stmnickson havo como back to civilisation by way of Peace River, Alberta, bringing several thousand photographic studies of tho manners and customs of the wild life of tboso remote woods and streams (states the "Christian Science Monitor.") The explorers, for they well deserve the nnmc. worked into Ihe wilderness by way of Hudson's Hope and tho forks of tho Findlay and Parsnip rivers as far as Fort Gralmme. Their negatives illustrate the habits of the ptarmigan, moose, beaver, Canadian wild geese and other animals and birds chat have seldom been observed with anything liko thoroughness by means oi the camera. Tho travellers 'had device.) of various sorts whereby their subjects were. enticed to spots upon which tho hidden lenses were focused; and upon reaching these spots an ambushed camera man "snapped" them by twitching a long cord attached to the len; shutter. A single negativo of some specially shy animal was often the only {rait of many hours of patient waiting. Sometimes for davs the explorers. would .watch a single spot through their field glasses awaiting tho favourable moment to "shoot." But it was all worth it.
