Winter Sports: Curling Contests in the Alps

This is an excellent and spirited picture of fine quality depicting the international curling contests in Switzerland, showing the Scotch champion team under very favorable conditions as well as many of the other leading contestants. The heads of the rinks both at the playing up and the "tee" ends are well shown, as also mid-rink views with the "stones"' merrily sailing past. The appropriate mid-winter Alpine surroundings make up a fine picture.

Midwinter Sports in Quebec

Quebec stands 200 feet above the lower town, dominating the entire landscape. Along Duffern Terrace there runs the toboggan slide, which at night is brilliantly illuminated. Also there are ski-jumping contests that will give thrills of pleasure. Snow-shoe hiking is popular with those who prefer it, and many a cross-country hike is taken on snow five feet deep or more. Then, too, there are dog sled races, curling-club matches, coasting and tea dances. The pictures of these sports were taken while the thermometer registered from ten to thirty degrees below zero. Besides sports there are many historical points of interest in Quebec. The Chateau Frontenac, overlooking the Duffern Terrace, the lower city and ice-choked St. Lawrence River, stands on the site of the historic Fort Louis, former stronghold of the French and English governors of the Province of Quebec. The famous battlefield where the English general Wolfe died is a particular point of interest.
