rarely seen a more sunny and joy-radiating personality than this young- champion who will presently thrill audiences at the Minto Follies with her superb skating. Her pleasure and vitality are infectious, and the faces of all who met her, including hard-boiled journalists and news photographers, were wreathed in smiles. Wearing no hat, and with a beaver coat, velvet brown dress and shoes to match, tall and slim, she presented a charming figure as Mayor Lewis gave her the large be-ribboned key of the city, and congratulated her on her skating exploits. He was sure, he said, that her stay in the city would be a happy and memorable one. Others present to welcome her were Sir Francis and Lady Floud, at whose residence, Earnscliffe, she will be a guest while in the Capital: Melville Rogers, president of the Minto Club; Harold Osmonde, vice -president, and Mrs.

Osmonde; Donald B. Crutk-shank, secretary; Elmore A. Davis, director; T. H. Blair, manager, and Kendall McNeil, honorary director.

Without a trace of self-consciousness, she talked of her early training, of past experiences and her plans for the future. "Laughing, young and debonair." as she is, she appears older than her 16 years, and has definite ideas and opinions on various subjects.

She spoke of Sonja Henie. the great ex-champion, whom she knew well and whose place she has taken in skating prominence. 6he mentioned her arduous train Our Town- 1 stay in Ottawa longer.

Asked the usual question on this subject, she said that Robert Taylor was her favorite star, a choice in which she will find plenty of sympathy among the feminine idea of Ottawa.
