Under the ideal conditions which exist at Wainwright and with .the facilities available, everything possible is being done to make the two-week periou interesting-and instructive. Under supervision of instructors who have taken training at : the | Churchill School as weil as_ those | who have studied the ways of trap- ‘pers and bushmen in the White- rorse, Yukon, area, the reservists | are to undergo training in some of | the interesting methods of cold- | weather. survival.
