Large Crowd Attends
Elks' Cabaret And
Dance
In keeping with their ideals of
providing the best entertainment
possible for their patrons at social
functions, the Anyox Elks put on
an excellent show at their Easter
Cabaret and Dance, held in the
Gymnasium on Easter Monday.
The decorations, spotlight effects
and genial atmosphere gave the
finishing touches to a memorable
evening's entertainment. A large
crowd attended. The cabaret programme contained some novel features and every number was cleverly performed.
The opening item was an exquisite toe dance by Miss Florence
Kelley, given with a skill and grace
which delighted everyone. Miss I.
Gillies and Mr. M. Flye presented
a dainty song and dance: "Honey."
A number by Miss Frances Wilkinson and Mr. J. Obuchine entitled
"The Shadow Waltz" captured the
hearts of the audience. As an encore they gave the song "Thanks."
Miss I. Eastman, charmed everyone
with a sob entitled "Song of Love"
Mr. Bob Brown gave in good style
"When its darkness ou the Delta."
A chorus and dance by a group
of well-trained artists was the feature of the evening, and was given
in a finished style which reflected
great credit upon those by whom
they had been coached. Credit is
due Mr. T. J. Tierney in this regard
also to Miss F. Kelley for her careful tuition. Mr. Frank Alleu deserves praise for his work as accompanist for the choruses and
dances.
Following were the committee in
oharge of arrangements: Angus
Gillies, chairman, Peter Wee, Ed.
Johnson, Ken Hunter. Music for
the dancing which followed was
provided by the Elks' Orohestra,
who delighted with their tuneful
numbers, and J. Gillies' Orchestra
gave their services for the supper
interval.
The members of the troupe in the
danoe and chorus were: Miss F.
Kelley, Misses Frances Wilkinson,
Winifred Wilkinson. Agnes Krusick, Enid Morris of Prince Rupert,
Duloie Breuther, Isabel Gillies and
Mr. M. Flye. An appetizing supper was served during the evening.

Many  Attend   United
Church Services
The Easter-lime services in the
United Church at Anyox were
helpful and inspiring.
The Good Friday evening service was followed by the Holy
Communion, when many stayed
for the sacrament.
The Sunday School attendance
on Easter Sunday was just one
short of the total enrollment. At
the 11 o'clook service a well filled
church resounded to the first hymn
"Christ the Lord is Risen Today,"
In the evening the church was
rilled to capacity, chairs being
placed in the aisles. The choir sang
t\vo anthems: "Gloria in Excelsis"
and "The Heavens are Telling."
Mrs. J. Peel sang "I know that my
Redeemer Liveth." The minister's
theme was of the Resurrection, the
Triumphant Christian Life, and
their relation to Immortality. Mr.
N. R. Redman was organist at the
morning service and Mr. F. Drbsser
at the evening service.
Mr. Ivor Bassett Is Fellow of
Royal Society of Arts
Mr. Ivor Bassett of Anyox, has
recently learned that he has been

Society.
The Royal Society of Arts is one
of the oldest scientific societies in
Great Britain, and functions in the

"to assist in the advancement, development and practical application
of every department of science in

tures and Commerce of Great
Britain." It is also one of the large
recognized examining bodies in
Great Britain, and in 1933 its papers
were worked by 81,346 candidates
The Society is now co-operating
with the Royal Academy to hold an
exhibition of British Art in Industry
in London in 1935.

aud son Roy.
Rovers Hold a Successful
Social Evening
The local Rover Crew successfully entertained their lady friends
ou the evening of the 28th. March,
in their new Den.
It was evident that the party
would be a complete success when
Chief Rover Mate Arthur Teabo
was found acting the role of master
of ceremonies, the feeding of
crackers to the boys by their lady
partners, whereupo'n the boys were
to whistle. Much merrimeut and
laughter was to be heard but uot
the ghost of a whistle.
Rover Dick Summers proved
himself a genuine magician wheu
it oame to tricks and two or three
fellows are still wondering how
those eggs got into their pockets.
. At 10.30 the party adjourned for
supper consisting for the most part
of peach shortcake, jelly and ice
cream.
After supper, dancing to the
peppy music of John Gillies and
his "8ynaopals"-was the order of
the evening.
The gathering broke up shortly
after twelve o'clock and was voted
a complete success by all present.

Trojans Beat Mechanics
In Play-off Game
In the Men's Senior A play-off
game between the Mechanics and
the Trojans, the latter won handily
35-17 after a fast and worth-while
exhibition. Good team-work and
accurate passing won the game for
the Trojans. Mechanics' passing
was a little erratic at times aud
their efforts at the basket were
frequently misjudged- They played au aggressive and speedy game
however, and well deserved a higher score. Harold Dresser and Bud
Gillies starred with 14 and 1]
points, while Ivor Davies and Doc.
Watson worked well for the losers.
The teams: Mechanics, C. Dresser
5, J. Buntain 6, I. Davies 2. W.

Tournament Enjoyed By
Youthful Badminton
Players
Twenty-two children who have
been coached in the game of badminton during the past season took
part in a tournament held in the
Gymnasium on Saturday evening
last, and thoroughly enjoyed it;
These children have been trained
by a committee of members of the
Anyox Badminton Club, meeting
every Saturday evening, and the
results fully justify the conscientious efforts which have been expended.
The committee composed of Mrs.
Wenerstrom, Mrs. J. Smith, Mrs.
Macintyre, W. G. Johnston, M.
Prust, and A. H. Kirbf, president
of the Badminton Club, were in
charge of the tournament, the
prizes and supper being provided
by the Community League. Mixed
doubles was the style of play, the
names being drawn out of a  hat.
Each couple played every other
couple during the evening, so that
they played ten games each, 110
Sameg being played in all. The
winners were Leslie Murdoch (playing as a lady) and Jack Tierney,
the second prizes going to Nadine
Wenerstrom and Bobby Kent.
Consolation prizes wont to Dorcas
Mclnnes and R. Manning. The
winners made 103 points and
the runners-up 100.
During the supper Mr Kirby
presented the prizes and congratulated the ohildren ou their play and
also on their general behaviour.
Similar training of the children is
planned for next season.
Mine Girls Hold Down
Beach Hoopsters
Holding down a selected team
from the Beach to a 18-22 score in
a friendly encounter at the Gymnasium on Good Friday, the Mine
girls showed how well they are
following the instruction they have
received during the past season.
Their play showed that they were
more anxious to follow the rules
than to win regardless. Next year
they will be well fitted to take a
high plaoe among Anyox ladies'
teams. The Beach girls lost three
players through personals. The

Government Willing To
Assist Prospectors
When supply for the department
of mines was being voted on March
23rd. Premier T. D. Pattullo told
the House the Government desired
to go the absolute limit in assisting
the mining industry, which was a
particularly bright spot in B. C.'s
present-day. history. The remark
was prompted by a statement from
Dr. J. J. Gillis, Liberal, Yale, that
prospectors were complaining of
serious delay in examination of properties by resident mining engineers.
Mr. Pattullo said if the Legislature would clothe the government
with the necessary authority it
would be in a better position to assist prospectors.
W. J. Asselstine, Liberal, Atlin,
said 60 per cent, of the area of that
riding had never been visited by
white men. He urged the government to endeavor to co-operate
with the Dominion in geological
survey work carried out in this
province.
R. W. Bruhn, Ind., Salmon Arm,
said an act had been passed last
year by the former government
which would have greatly assisted
the placer mining industry, but this
legislation had been ignored.
Mr. Pattullo replied by saying
that if the Special Powers Act was
supported by the Legislature the
government would have an opportunity to give such assistance.
Hon. G. S. Pearson, minister of
mines, said his department had in
mind a scheme to aid the placer
miner.
Consolidated Co. Must
Start Railway In
Nine Months
Profit From Premier Mine
Over $21,000,000
In the 14 years and one month
ended December 31, 1933, Premier
Gold Mine produced 1,332,669 oz.
gold and 33,873,225 ounces silver.
Total profits after deducting investment write-offs and taxes before
depreciation and ore depletion
charges were $21,281,537.
The aggregate distribution to
shareholders has been $17,258,075
Houston Gold Mines, with a property on Bob creek, near Houston,
B. C, is being financed by A. J.
McPherson, of Vancouver. Original owners are George W. Smith,
Charles Kelly and M. Fenton.
Another strike of rich free gold
ore is reported from the I. X. L. at
Rossland, B. C, which is being
operated by a Rossland syndicate.
The Canadian North Eastern
Railway, owned by the Consolidated Mining & Smelting Co. will be
allowed nine months to start construction of its railway from Stewart across the northern half of
British Columbia to Fort Grahame.
The Provincial Legislature gave
the company a new charter On
March 29th. after a futile fight by
G. G. McGeer, K. C, to stop it.
In the final 'division, all Liberals
voted for the charter. R. H. Pooley, K. C, R. W. Bruhn and Clive
Planta, supported the bill, which
was a government measure. The
C. C. F. members and Hugh Savage, Independent, opposed it.
Mr. McGeer said the charter was
a continuation of the "free trade in
railway charters" which had loaded
the country down with too many
railways, which threatened even the
C. P. R., which might make consolidation of the C. P. R. and C. N.
R. inevitable and which had contributed largely to the bankruptcy
of the Dominion and all the provinces.
R. R. Burns, Liberal member for
Rossland-Trail, asked the - Legislature to give the Consolidated a
square deal.
Wm. J. Asselstine said that the
House should encourage a company
like the Consolidated which was
really trying to do something. He
did not believe the northern scheme
would ruin the P. G. E., which he
declared would be a highly profiit-
able railway within the visible,
future.
Clive Planta, member for Peace
River, was in favor of a northern
outlet for the Peace River district.
It will be interesting to see if the
Consoldated Company are ready to
start construction within nine
months and finish within five years.
It is possible they will not accept
the terms and allow the charter to
lapse, with the hope of obtaining at
a later date when business conditions are more prosperous and
money easier to borrow.
Apple and peach orchards near
Penticton, B. C, are being staked
as mineral claims.
The passage by the Legislature
of Premier Pattullo's Special Powers
Act marked the first occasion in the
history of the Dominion of Canada
that a provincial cabinet has been
given complete power over economic affairs.
Legislature Prorogued On
March 29th.
The Legislature prorogued on
March 29th. Before rising the
House gave three readings to Brit
ish Columbia's act for marketing
of natural products. The Act, following specifically a measure which
has been introduced at Ottawa,
allows wide powers to control marketing which will be administered
by the "British Columbia Marketing Board" consisting of three paid
members appointed by the government. Agriculture, fisheries and
lumbering will come within the
scope of the measure.

Loaded witli a large paper bag,
full of sandwiches and fruit,
five young Canadian "voyageurs"
are seen at Windsor Station,
Montreal, where they more than
enjoyed themselves while waiting
tor the train to take them to the
Canadian Pacific liner Duchess of
York  and  England.    They are
Billy Anderson, 14, and his four
sisters, left to right above, Ena,
Blanche, Greta and Gwen. Greta,
the youngest, is only six.
Few youngsters of his age are
ever called upon to chaperone
four young sisters on a 5,000 mile
lourney, but Billy shouldered his
responsibilities like a man. He
was shepherd, guide and constant
census-taker of his little flock.
The children are going to live
with their grand-parents at Pur-
ley, near London. Canadian Pacific representatives and the Traveller's Aid Society cared for
them en route. On board the Duchess of York the little girls were
looked after by a motherly head-
stewardess.

(rom a world cruise on board the Canadian Pacific
liner, the "Empress of Australia," during which tour
five continents, twenty-one countries and twenty-six
ports were visited and seven sess traversed.
"Witli sheltered ease," continued Lady Taylor,
"we had unfolded to us the soul-penetrating magnificence and the semewbat repellant fanatical conditions

the islands more than fascinating, but the Royal

"After such a wonder tour of 133 days," concluded
Lady Taylor, "we 'Lotus Bating Tourists' have once

out the untiring supervision and perfect organisation

Financial Writer Favors
Railway From Stewart
To Interior
Given nine months in which to
make a start on construction and
a maximum of five years to
complete the road, the Canadian
North Eastern Railway Company,
Consolidated Mining & Smelting
Co. subsidiary, may make a start
this year on a road from Stewart to
Fort Grahame, says Howard T.
Mitchell in the Financial News.
In the face of some opposition
from members whose constituencies
lie along the Pacific Great Eastern
Railway and who feared that the
C. N. E. line would constitute a
serious competitor, Premier Pattullo has introduced a bill extending
the C. N. E. charter subject to the
time provisions mentioned above.
The Premier made it clear that
the interests of no section of the
province could be held up to advance those of another area, and in
any case, that he doubted if a line
inland from Stewart would injure
the future of the Pacific Great
Eastern Railway.
Whether or not the Consolidated
Mining & Smelting Company will
make a start this year on construction will depend on the value the
mining company places upon the
charter and the desirability of retaining it.
The company is known to have
large placer holdings under development on the Mesilinka River and
a copper property on Thutdale
Lake. The railway would give
access to the famous Groundhog
Coal fields, where Lord Rhondda
for   many    years   held   extensive
Trojans Enter Finals In
League Playoff
There was hardly any doubt as
to the outoome of the play-off game
in the Men's Senior A League,
played on Wednesday last between
the Tiojans and Meohanics. Although the Mechanics put up au
A 1 game they were outclassed
by the clever and fast-moving Trojans, who won 38-24. The latter
now meet the Vandals A for the
Cup on Faiday 6th. Starting out
with a 17-pt. lead, the Trojans
made the pace hot from the start,
but the machine men were on their
toes and a fast game resulted.
Clever passing featured the game,
the Trojans time and again working the ball to their star forward.

fine field shots, notching ten points

leases on near anthracite coal
measures. It would also give access to the Ferguson lead-zinc mine
which is a potential large tonnage
operation, sometimes referred to as
a second Sullivan.
Construction on the road would
tremendously stimulate prosperity
in British Columbia, since it would
open a new mineral empire to development.

Mine Girls' Basketball Team
Shows Improvement
Showing keen enthusiasm in
their efforts, the Mine Girls put up
a good fight against a selected team
last Wednesday. They only lost
by three points. All showed improvement, the forward line being
noticeably good. M. Clarkson,
right guard, was unfortunately
absent, but the position was well
filled by Y. Cannon, who played a
sterling game. P. Arscott, B. Cannon, and E. Johnson starred for the
Mine while D. Rogers, J. Pinckney
and P. Loudon worked well for the
