Dominion Day Sports at Anyox Huge Success Held under Auspices Anyox Community League Brilliant sunshine; a record attendance; full sports programme; plenty of cooling drinks, tho whole clays' entertainment terminating with a big dance marked this year's celebration of Dominion Day in Anyox. Tho day's programme commenced with the marathon races at 10 a.m. I and concluded with tho closing | of the dance at 2 a.m. tho following morning a truly busy day for those who participated in all tlie events. Arrangements were in tlie capable hands of the Community League, who carried tho pro- | gramme through without a hitch. The Held sports, baseball and football games drew big crowds. Everything went off with a bang every event being a ringer, even old King Sol entered into the spirit of the day, and did his utmost to make the bleachers as warm as possible and many of the spectators j who occupied them, turned longing eyes at their neighbors who had [ taken advantage of the shady places, with almost a I spirit of envy. But ample provis- lion had been made by the Granby Co. and the Community League in having on hand an abundance of ice cream and cold drinks for any • who cared to avail themselves of the opportunity. This was supplied free of charge. The kiddies had a I glorious time, as they usually do at I events of this kind, being supplied with squakers and flags. A baseball team from Ketchikan arrived in time for the celebration. A number of supporters accompanied them, and it is safe to say that [ they fully enjoyed their visit. Both ball games played between Ketchi- I kan and Anyox were all that could Ibe desired, Anyox winning the I morning game, and Ketchikan IbeiiiR the victors of the evening ■encounter. It is to be regretted that the lAnyox team were not in a position lto pay a return visit to Ketchikan |for July 4th celebration as in for- ner years. No boat could be hired jto take the Anyox team to Ketchikan, enquiries were make by wire to the various boathouses at Prince ■Rupert, but no launches were livailable. Those who helped with the hports and served iced drinks and bream, cakes, peanuts, flags, squak- Irs and horns, were: Harry Arm- jtrong, H. 11. Patrick, C McLachlan, A. Beaton. E. G. Brown and R. Ingram. Secretary of the League W. M. Kelley was the busiest man In town, and the great success of Ihe celebration is due in a large Jegree to his excellent organizing Jbilities. Art Nickerson, chairman If the entertainment committee llso fulfilled his duties in a very Ireditable manner. At the conclusion of the after- loon sports a luncheon was Irovided the Ketchikan visitors in lie Elks' Dugout. They were also luests at the evening dance held in lie Gymnasium, which wound up lie day's rejoicing. J The dance was well attended, Ihe Syncopated Six orohestra, kept ['eryone's feet itching with their pcellent music, and the Home faltz witnessed a tired but cheer- bl bunch of celebrating patriots spurting for home, some of which lore nearby, while others less for- Jnate journeyed to Alice Arm or letchikan. Iln all of this wide and ricli Dom- Alice Arm Will Have Greater Publicity A special meeting of the Alice Arm branch of the B. C. Chamber of Mines was held in tlie Coliseum on Monday evening for the purpose of hearing tho report of tho -publicity committee. Vice- President T. W. Falconer presided. Tho minutes of tho preceding meeting were read by Secretary A. J). York, and were adopted. The secretary then stated that the twenty prospectors' samples from the Department of Mines at Ottawa had arrived, and an examination of them had shown that they will be extremely useful for the purpose of comparing samples. These samples had been supplied free. Some discussion regarding a suitable place for them was indulged in, and it was finally deoided to leave them with the secretary until suitable quarters could be found. H. Fowler, chairman of the publicity committee, gave a brief address regarding the findings of the committee, and stated that enough money had been promised to print 750 booklets and it was hoped to increase this number to 1000. Mr. R. Armour, secretary of the Publicity Committee then read his report. At the conclusion of the reading of the report it was decided to eliminate all display advertising in the booklet, as it was thought that as much space as possible should be devoted to reading matter relative to the mining industry. The inclusion of a map of the whole district was the next question and it was decided to insert- as large a map as possible if same could be done, at a reasonable- expense. The committee were authorized by the meeting to publish at least 750 booklets, and to increase this number to 1000 if necessary funds can be secured. The book to be 4j- by 8 inches, 32 pages, six of which will be illustrations. Same to be issued as soon as possible. The following extracts were taken from Mr. Armour's report. Three committee meetings were held on the 28th. 29th. and 30th. of June. It was decided to canvass the busies* people of the town in order to obtain finances. • The district to be covered in thebook to consist of a radius of 15 or 20 miles of the town of Alice Arm. The most reliable information to be secured regarding mining properties, and to base all reports on the report of the District Mining Engineer, together with such other reliable information as could be obtained. The properties in active operation to receive greatest space. Tho bulk of inactive properties to be listed in column form, giving name of property owner, names of minerals, location etc. As much space as possi ble to be gi ven to the mining industry. Approximate cost of 500 books, $175.00; 750 hooks $210.00, and 1.000 books $250.00. This price includes map of district. That the committee set the sum of $BO0.OO for their objective to take care of incidental expenses. inion, with its towering mountains its sun-kissed valleys, and fertile golden plains, Dominion Day was not celebrated more heartily than in the town of Anyox. July 1st is the birthday of this broad and blessed Dominion in which we are proud to live and call our home, and by celebrating our birthday we show our joy at being so fortunate to dwell in suoh a laud of peace, plenty, and prosperity. A list of sports prize winners will be found on page three. Marriage of Well Known Anyox Couple The United Church at Anyox was crowded on Monday morning at 8.30, when a very attractive wedding was solemnized between Miss Doris Lawn and Mr. Geo. Leslie.

The bride, who was given away by her brother Gordon, looked lovely attired in an ensemble suit of powder blue, with a grey picture hat, and her bouquet was composed of Ophelia roses, white heather and carnations. She was attended by her sister Miss Annie Lawn, who looked charming in a spun silk dress of Alice bine, with silver grey hat. Mr. Ronald Moore supported the groom. The groom's mother was attired in a gown of pretty shade of navy blue crepe de chine, with hat to match. After the ceremony a wedding breakfast was served at the bride's home, where about 25 guests spent a happy time. The usual toasts were honoured, those of the bride and bridegroom being very enthusiastically received. The happy couple left on the S. S. Cardena for the south, from there they will visit the Eastern States; also to the bridegroom's home in Cleveland Ohio. About 50 handsome and useful wedding presents were received. The groom's gift to the bride was a gold wristlet watch. The bride's gift to the groom, was a set of handsome gold cuff links.

Benzol Boys Slip Over Win on Mill Men The Brewery League got under way to a good start on Wednesday evening when the Coke Plant nine took the Concentrator into camp to the time of 13 to 10. It was a torrid contest from start to finish, dazzling plays were pulled on both sides amid the cheers of the huge crowd present. Manager Harmon's aggregation of sincillating stars started off with a rush and had piled up a lead of nine runs before the opposition knew what it. was all about. In the fifth and sixth, however, Montgomery, who was on the slab for .the winners, weakened and eight runs trickled across the rubber. But the tar babies were not to be denied, they added two in the fifth and one in the sixth which put the game on ice. Gawn Moffat started on the mound for the losers but was wild and ineffective and was yanked i n favor o [ Stew McLachlan who got by nicely the few innings he worked. Jack Hill, at first base for the Coke Plant, turned in several nice plays as well as being the big man with the stick when he poled out one for the circuit in the fourth frame. Bradshaw was the star for the Concentrator nine, in the sixth inning he got on and managed to steal everything but the umpire's gold teeth. Willard Bruce was the umpire. TEAMS Coke Plant: Mcintosh, Montgomery Hill, Jones, Asimus, Varley, Heafey, Thompson, Kominsky. Concentrator: Lazoreek, Moffatt, Hi Staines. McKay Staines, McLachlan, Thalheimer, Hunter, Bradshaw, Wharten. Mr. and Mrs. C.

From 1921 until recently he fulfilled tbe duties as manager of the Elks' Club. Charlie will be greatly missed in fraternal circles and in the community. A large number of his friends were down at the boat to bid Mr. and Mrs. Gray good-bye and the best of success for their future welfare. Work Commenced on Eagle Development work commenced this week on the Eagle property near the LaRose mine. The property was recently examined by W. S. 'Bacon, mining engineer of Vancouver.

They will spend a week or so enjoying the scenic sights of the district. Ketchikan and Anyox Divide Honors E. Groves, of the Anyox branch Canadian Bank of Commerce arrived yesterday at the Alice Arm Hotel, where he will spend a week's vacation. With old Sol beating down at his best, making it the hottest day this year, but ideal baseball weather, Ketchikan and Anyox split the double bill on Dominion Day. The local boys took the morning contest by a 9 to 7 count before a fair sized crowd. Both teams seemed to have their batting eyes and in consequence the match proved to be quite a slug fest. Orr started on the mound for Anyox but was forced to retire in the sixth, in favor of Smith, when the visitors bunched hits to tie up the score. Johns, who started for the Alaskans was chased in the fourth frame giving way to Cosgroves. who hurled fine ball until the seventh and eighth when the locals got to him for a brace of markers in each canto. Hill, lirst saeker for the visitors was the leading sticker with four bingles out of five trips to the plate he also supplied the fielding feature when he speared Smith's liner, which was tagged for the Mine Apartments. Umpires were Oleson and Erbe. The evening contest went to the visitors by the close score of 3 to 1. The game was not as interesting to watch as the previous one but was productive of some very good baseball. Smith took up the burden on the mound for Anyox, holding the opposition seorless up to the fourth frame when he weakened and three runs trickled across. The lone tally for Anyox came in the first when Downs walked, stole second and came home when Rud- derham's single eluded the centre fielder. Van Marter chucked good ball for the winners, but was forced to retire in the sixth due to a sore arm. Holtz finishing the game with no trouble at all. TEAMS Ketchikan: Edwards, c. Coski, 2b.

The football contest took place in the afternoon, aud after struggling for seventy minutes under the boiling sun, the match was declared a draw, each side scoring one each. Powell scored the Single Men's coal in the first half with a sizzling shot which gave the goalie no chance. Bob Ellison notched the counter for the Benedicts in the second half on a nice pass from Bill Robertson.

H. MOSS, Editor and Publisher. The liberal government, under the leadership of Mackenzie King has fallen, and an election in September has been decided upon. The sore spots of the last election have just about healed up, and these will now be torn open. The old acrimonous election atmosphere will again prevail, until the question of which party shall govern the country has been decided upon. The people will be arrayed against each other in two hostile camps, which is not good for the country at large or for a small community. An election every four years is quite often enough, both from a monetary standpoint, and the general welfare of the country. The recent debacle at Ottawa plainly shows that a third party in parliament is undesirable. It has proven a dismal failure in every country where a group of egoists have elected members to Parliament and Canada has learned her lesson in the bitter school of experience. A small group of Progressives have governed Canada quite long enough. They do not possess any ulterior motives, and they keep the country in a political turmoil. During the last election their numbers were greatly reduced, and their complete elimination from the Federal field in the coming election is to be hoped for. Last Shipment of Ore from Surf Inlet Mine The Belmont-Surf Inlet mine at Surf Inlet, on Prinoess Royal Island, has now ceased operations, the last shipment of ore having been made last week on the Chilcoot. Another group of residents moving out were on board tlie Catala recently on their way to Vancouver and, in about three weeks, there will be hardly anyone left at the mining camp which has been a hive of steady industry for the past ten years. Some of the equipment will he moved out but it is expected a good deal of it will have to be abandoned. H. M.

Subscribe to your Local Paper NOW. Alice Arm Receives Increased Publicity Slowly, but surely Alice Arm is coming to its own. Increased interest in the camp is being taken and mining men throughout the northwest are anxious to obtain data regarding our resources. It is gratifying to note that mining journals are commencing to give the camp increased publicity in order to satisfy the wants of their readers. Recent issues of tho Western Canada Mining News, published in Vancouver, have given considerable space to local operations. It is a small weekly, but full of interesting mining news, and its publishers arc live wires. The Alaska Weekly, published in Seattle, has always been a consistent booster for the camp, and in their last issue ran a front page article with a Si-ill double column heading in respect to the examination of the Dolly Varden, and also putting in a good word for the cam]) in general. Resources, a monthly magazine, published in Prince Rupert, is also interested in the development of the camp, and is anxious for authentic news at all times. They have, since commencing publication, printed several articles relative to the mining industry of the camp, and hope to publish more. Mining Truth, Spokane, Washington and Mining and Industrial Record of Vancouver also carry items of Alice Arm mining activities, but to a lesser extent than the three first mentioned., 4 large portion of the news carried in the above-mentioned journals, is obtained from the columns of the Herald, which shows that the local paper is held in high esteem, and its mining news can be regarded as authentic. We have received numerous requests from Mining journals for written copy regarding local developments. Some we have been able to comply with, but pressure of business does not allow us time to fully cover this important work. It is the duty of the people of Alice Arm to support a mining journal favorable to our interests when subscribing to one. We have on hand a con siderable number of mining magazines and newspapers, and anyone is welcome to pursue them. Marriage is a business failure when a man puts his property in his wife's name.
