Romanchych, who also told of the work being done in Alberta. In this province spinning and weaving occupy a prominent place, and hundreds of looms and spinning wheels are in use. Products are exchanged by the workers, such as raw wool for home spun yarn, and there is a big demand for the finished articles. Woven rugs and blankets were exhibited by the speaker. In her opinion the preserving and developing of handicrafts in Canada has been done chiefly by the CanaHandicrafts Guild, and she hopes that soon the various national groups will use their traditional designs on a Canadian background.

In Europe the old handicrafts are being carefully developed and in some countries the governments direct the in schools. Under modern industrial civilization men are apt to become machines and to lose their individual skill, but the true traditions of handicraft are being fostered, and the craftsman presses himself through the work of his hands.

Yet the player arrived at 6 p.m. to make up for the night's show and spent the rest of the time making his hands look like workman's. "That's devotion to art," said the director. Mrs. Craig spoke of the sadness which all felt that the Little Theatre was "in the hands of the trolls."
