Dalhousie Co. Drifting
On Ten Feet of
Good Ore
The Dalhousie Mining Company
who are developing the Tidewater
vlMol,ybdenuin property with such
excellent results are still continuing
driving the main drift. This
drift is being driven on a full face
of good ore and cross cuts shows it
to be 10 feet wide. The ore body
is very persistent, and the future
outlook for the property is bright.
A trial shipment of two tons of
ore will be shipped immediately to
the Department of Mines, Ottawa,
These two tons will be treated in
the Department's laboratories, so
that the type of concentrating mill
can be determined upon.
It is planned by the Dalhousie
Company to install a concentrating
mill on the property next spring,
and every precaution is being taken
to ensure the installation of the
most suitable type of mill.
G. W. Bruggy visited the property this week, and was very
enthused with the progress made
since his last visit. He returned
with some very fine samples of ore
which he will take south next week
to the company's office at Victoria.
From present appearances, the
Tidewater Molybdenum will be on
a producing' basis in the near future.
When this event occurs it will be
the first molybdenum producing
mine in Canada.
The only producing mine in North
America of any importance is at
Climax, Colorado. This mine pro-
duces 30,000 tons of ore per month,
No difficulty is experienced in dis-
posing of the metal produced, there
being a growing demand by steel
manufacturers throughout the
world for molybdenum.
The operation of the Tidewater
Molybdenum on a producing basis
will be a great asset to the mining
industry of the Alice Arm district,
Owing to its close proximity to
tidewater, thus assuring cheap
water transportation, it will undoubtedly be in a position to produce metal more cheaply than the
Colorado mine.

Utility Mines No. 1 Ltd.
Complete Purchase
Of Tiger
Announcement has been made of
the completion of the purchase of
the Tiger mine by the Utility No.
1 Ltd. Under the aggreetnent of
sale a cash payment of $60,000 was
made and 200,000 shares of stock
were given. The Climax and Rose
Marie groups of claims are included in the area.
During the past three years considerable development work has
been done by the Utility Mines
No. 1 Ltd. on the Tiger, and some
good bodies of ore have been developed on three levels. Owing to
the low price of silver, work was
suspended last fall but the final
payment of the purchase price
indicates that work will be resum
ed as soon as silver prices rise.
The Tiger joins the Toric on the
north and contains muoh high
grade silver ore. It was formerly
owned by Ed. Pickett who staked
it in 1915.

Badminton Club Will Hold
Another Tournament
The Badminton Club will hold
another handicap tournament on
Saturday, December 20th. in the
Gymnasium.
Iu the last tournament it was
erroneously reported that Mrs.
Fricker and Mr. T. Cloke obtained
a perfect score. The only perfect
score of the evening was obtained
by Mrs, Roy and Mr. Don Cleal.
Pilot Everett L. Wasson and Joe
Walsh, who located the plane of
Capt. E. J. A. Burke, on December
5th. in the Atlin Country, successfully located the camp of his companions, Bob Martin and Emil
Kaiden, on Tuesday. They saw
their smoke and landed 10 miles
away, but failed to locate the camp.
Martin, however, heard5them, and
fired his last rifle shell to attract
their attention.
On arrival at the camp they were
informed by Martin and Kaiden
that Burke had died of starvation
on November 20th. They had been
23 days without food, except one
duck and a squirrel
I5th. Kaiden shot a can
Burke was then too far gone to
rally from the nourishment then
available.
Three times they had seen Was-
son's plane overhead, but did not
have a fire ready to attract his
attention, and were almost abandoning hope of being rescued when
they attracted Wasson's attention.
They had been lost since October
11th., and Kaiden is suffering from
frozen hands and Martin has a foot
frozen. The former had lost 20
pounds in weight and the latter 50.
Wasson's timely arrival saved a
triple tragedy. He brought the
survivors to Whitehorse, and his
persistent efforts in searching for
them brands him as a hero of the

The late Mr. McQuarrie was well
known in Anyox, spending several
years here, and was employed in
the Transportation Department
He was in the transfer business at

Anyox Elks Hold Very
Impressive Service
The Anyox Lodge, No. 47, B. P.
O. Elks held a very impressive
Memorial Service on Sunday, December 7, when the Officers and
Members of the Anyox Lodge
assembled in the Elks' Hall. There
was a large attendance and many
visitors were in the congregation.
The United Church Choir led by
Mr. N. R. Redman sang "A Voice
at Eventide," prior to a very
appropriate address by the Rev,
F. Bushfield. Mr. Ross Oatman
played a cornet solo "One Sweetly
Solemn Thought." and Mr. Redman sang the tenor solo ' I Shall
Not Pass This Way Again."
The Smelter team regained some
of the lost ground on Thursday,
December 4th, when they defeated
the Orphans by a margin of 4
points in a low scoring game.
Both sides were good in defense,
and tlieir checking was much better than the shooting.
Scores: Smelter, Ellison-4, J_
Donaldson-2, J. Ion-2.   Total 8.
Orphans, Field-2, W. Pinckney-
2.   Total 4.
A much better display was given
in the game played by these teams
on December 8, when the Orphans
beat the Smelter by 18 to 14 after
playing extra time. The passing
and checking of both teams gave
delight to the fans, who are showing keen interest in those Senior
B games. Smelter obtained their
points through Donaldson-7, S.
Ellison-4, J. Ion 3; while Elliott 8,
Field-8, W. Pinckney-2, were successful scorers for the winners.
The Blossoms easily beat the
Buds by 14 points to 2. The

throughout and put up quite an
interesting game.

Government Unemployment Aid Covers
Province
Victoria, December 6—The Unemployment Committee of the Provincial Government has now completed agreements for relief works
with 60 out of the 75 municipalities
of the Province, which covers the
whole area as far as aid requirements are concerned.
A comprehensive scheme of relief
work on roads for the winter
months has been decided upon. In
order to ensure that each one shall
get some share of the work in unorganized territory, a limit of two
week's employment at one time has
been decided upon with one week
more or less of between. An endeavor is also being made to scatter the work so that the workers
shall be kept as near their homes
as possible and concentration
avoided.
As showing how widespread are
relief plans the following items are
•given:
Cariboo road, 83 to 86 Mile,  3l/2
miles of new right-of-way.
Cranbrook. Widening rock cuts
between Wardner and Yahk.
Slashing and burning right-of-way.
Golden. Work on Big Bend
Road.
Creston to Kuskanook- Widening road near Sirdar.
Hope-Princeton Road. Work
being continued.
Galloway Rapids, Skeena City.
Work on Prince Rupert Highway.
Hedley and Princeton. Resurfacing.
Fort George. Programme under
consideration.
Trail and Rossland. The Department are preparing plans for
the construction of a subway under
the C. P. R. tracks near Trail.
Will necessitate half a mile of road
reconstruction for approaches and
will eliminate a dangerous stretch.

Tariff Changes Create
Much Work
Ottawa, November 6; (Special
to the Herald). The last nine
months of 1931 promise to be
the worst in history for the customs division of the Department
ol' National Revenue.
Complete revision of the 1188
items which comprise the tariff
schedules will be introduced in
Parliament late in March or early
in April. While the revision may
not be endorsed by the House for
three months the schedules, almost
in their entirety, become effective
from the moment they are pre
sented.
Such changes as are made are
confidential until laid before the
House and are not, therefore, available to the men who must enforce
them until they are made public.
The net result is that every appraising officer must learn anew
tlie rates to be charged and the
regulations affecting valuations in
every class of goods.
Huge Amount  Invested   In
Mining In Canada
Capital invested in lands, buildings, plant, machinery and tools,
cost of supplies and stocks on hand
and cash, in the non-ferrous metallurgical industry in Canada
amounted to $146,699,085 in 1929
as against $120,035,742 in 1928,
states a bulletin issued by the
Dominion Bureau of Statistics-
There were 684 salaried employees
and 7,435 wage-earners who received $13,772,393 for their services. Fuel and electricity cost
$6,208,733. in addition to which
coke to the value of $3,208,757 was
used for smelting.

Smelter Waste Now Used As
Fertilizer at Trail
Consolidated Smelters is just beginning to put the product of the
ten million dollar fertilizing unit
on the market. The Canadian
prairies and central states will be
the chief fields of operation.
If the demand for the new agricultural process is equal to expectations the second ten million dollar
unit of the big Trail plant will be
constructed early in the spring.
The big factor in the history of
Consolidated Smelters' new adventure is that a valuable article of
trade is being manufactured from
materials that were previously
a dead waste in the smelting industry. Aside from the values
extracted from the air which be
comes synthetic nitrogen in combination, the article of commerce
actually helps dispose of materials
which the big company previously
found expensive to destroy.

WHEN BUYING COAL
- REMEMBER -
Every ton of British Columbia coal used means employment for local miners and mine workers.
It means the maintenance of more homes in the Province-
It means the continued  local circulation of funds  which
otherwise would leave tho Province.
It means, if every B. C. user of coal will use local coal,
that the Vancouver Island, Nicola-Princeton, and Crow's
Nest Pass coal fields, whose coal workers have been struggling on half time or less for months, again will be favored
with prosperous conditions.
For these reasons British Columbians should consider
carefully the source of the coal whioh fills tlieir bins this
winter.
Annual Reports, Bulletins, etc. may be
obtained free of charge, on application to
