Ninety-eight members were present when the roll was oalled by the secretary, and numerous messages were read from members who had left Anyox or were working on shift and eonld not attend. Short speeches were given by several members the keynote of whioh was that they were all proud to beElks and all thatElkdon stood for. At the close of the meeting, preparations wore made for'.an evening's entertainment, in which the ladies of the' Elks took part. It commenced with the old-fashioned game of Musical Chairs. The game commenced with over 80 contestants, .and amidst great excitement and hilarity Mrs. Mc- I Kenna, and Mr. MoKinnon were declared the winners, a feat which needed considerable agility. Parlor football, which was played with toy balloons with the players seated,- was a game, brimfull. of merriment, pretty to watch and exciting tOjplay. The supper call found everyone 1 on their way to the dugout, where the seats were quickly filled and the dishes emptied of "their delicious contents. Before the onslaught on the eatables was made, Mr. Kenneth Ferguson, past exalted ruler i of Victoria Lodge No. 2, gave a short and concise address, in which he explained the high' aims and | ambitions of the B: P. 0. Elks, and j gave everyone present some sound advice. Dancing was now, the order of | the evening, and the gay party ■ were soon skimming. the floor to the tune of the A. 1 prchestra, whioh was composed of Messrs. Haesler, piano; Prevost, banjo-mandolin; Tynmouth, drums. A speoial feature of the evening was the dancing of the "Highland Fling" by Misses Kathleen and Irene Bruggy of Alice Arm, the olever dancing of the little tots drawing rounds of applause. From start to finish it was a night of merriment, and amply proved that the Elks as entertainers are a live aggregation; * Those responsible for the evening's success were: Roll Call Committee, S. Down, B. Buck, Rev. 3. B. Gibson, J R. Armour. Sooial Committee: I Harry Thorley, Fred Whittaker, 1 Jimmy Ferguson, Bud Sheen. V. I Seidelman, A. Niokerson. Kitohen I Cook, Jimmy Thompson!

April 27th, the new gymnasium was the scene of a dance given by the Smelter Baseball Club, the first of its kind to be held in the Gym. ,and a most successful affair it was, both from the point of view of numbers present and the enjoyment derived. Players and supporters of other teams were present to' help make the Smelter dance a success. The CI lib annonnced that they wanted 300 people to attend, and judging by the appearance of the assemblage there must have beeu at least that number present. An augmented orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Liddel, six pieces in all, dispensed music whioh seemed to have just the proper flavor, which created a desire for more. Several numbers having to be repeated six or seven times. A dainty supper was served, to which everyone did justice. Dancing continued until 2 a.m. The management and members of the Smelter Baseballers wish to extend their sincere thanks to' the ladies who kindly prepared the supper for the dance.

The Chairman stated that it was his opinion that.the time was ripe for the installation pf a water system to supplythe needs of the town. He favored a community system, whereby all, the people of the town supplied the labor volunr tary, The water could be taken from.Falls Creek, and; if a flume was built through the woods to a convenient dam site, and pipes used from the end of the flume, the total cost of flume and pipe would be only $375.00 Considerable discussion ensued as to the feasibility of the i/project, several members were of the opinion that if everyone in the town pledged; their support that the scheme could be carried through, while others thought that the present time was a little too early. No decision was arrived at, and the matter will undoubtedly be brought up at a later date. BIRTH At ANYOX Born to, Mr. and Mr. Geo.

MacFarland is the owner of the Philmac, and came up. from Prince Bupert on her last week in company with Mrs. MacFarland. . ,' ' Development Work on the Lone Maid Messrs; J. Murdoch and E. Skoglund, who received a contract during the winter to drive a 10,0-ft. tunnel on the Lone Maid property, have finished their contract. This tunnel was driven with the object of striking the Alice ledge, ""which orosses the Lone Maid. The tunnel, however, did not strike the ore body and since high values have oeen proven on the ore ledge already drifted on, it has been decided to follow that ledge with the hope of encountering a larger body of high grade ore. J. Murdoch has commenced drifting op this ledge, and the development- work will be watched with considerable interest Samples recently taken from this ledge have given 238 ozs. silver and $12.0,0 gold per ton. The ledge now being drifted on is the one which gave the unusual high assay, of 307 ozs. of gold per ton, so far, no more of this ore has been located. New Strike on Banker Hill Group During the week, Jim Calvin brought in some fine specimens of silver ore from the Blinker Hill Group. The samples were taken on the surface from a new ledge which he recently, discovered the extent of whioh is not yet known. Assays will be made as soon as possible; The ore is identical to that found on the LaRose which gave oyer 1000 ozs. silver per ton. The Bunker Hill joins the LaRose. Bob Creelman of Anyox.
