Out of a party of thirty enthus- iasts who left Camp Telemark, the clubs'eadquarters on Grouse plateau,'wenty-three succeeded in climbing to the Camel's head. This almost per- pendicular rock at the top of Grown hIountain, curiously shap- ed like a camel, is considered one of the best rock climbs on local mountains. The clear weather gave the party a wonderful view which was ample compensation for the energy expended in reaching this eyrie perch. LAURIE SPECK, Proprietor 1456 Marine Drive Phone West 437L2 IL W.

Electric Railway Com- pany is new being centered on lining the two and a half mile tunnel with concrete and this work is going on continuously. Already 780 feet of arch lin- ing have been poured and near- ly 6000 feet of invert lining. When the concrete is in place the interior of the tunnel assumes the shape of a horseshoe and the inverted lining refers to the base of the shoe. It us expected that the task of lining the tunnel will be com- pleted by the early summer of 1931 when work will commence on the dam. A pole line carrying power for construction purposes has been extended from the Bridge River tunnel portal to the damsite. This line originates at the Diesel generating plant on the Seton Lake shore, a distance of ten miles from the damsite.
