Interior of furnished dormitory, all beds empty except for school girl resting in nearest bed.

Classroom with students at their desks and teacher standing in centre. Title continues, "Sons and daughters of Cree Indian trappers learn their "ABC's" in this classroom of the Anglican Church Missionary School in northern Saskatchewan. One of the largest of such schools in Canada, the boys and girls there are given the opportunity to study and take their places in a kind of life not otherwise possible. Many of the students have gone on to more advanced schools of learning, to become missionaries."
