used in a pinch but there is a

Gowan and I were at
a picture show in Tin Town
this week. The theatre holds
1000. But there are about 40,000
in this camp, so it does not

goes in at 6.30, but while we
were there at 6, there was a line
up nearly 20 rods long. The
admission is 7d. = 14 cents.
The pictures are very good. Charlie
Chaplin the famous American
film comedian is always welcome
to the Canucks. The music is
nearly all Canadian and American.
