I The married men were the avier team and they alsopossess- the more experienced players. !he game started with a rush and )th sides were out to win. The arried men scored their first pal after 12 minutes of play and IjJe single men equalized 5 minutes iter, Oatman scoring the only oal obtained by them throughout ie game. In the second period lie married men scored two more loals. Don Cameron received a lasty cut under his left eye from pie flying puck and retired for the alance of the game, Marshall Ifmith taking his place. The tarried men were now demonstrat- jieir. superiority and they were ombarding the single's goal from II angles, and Ross in goal was fie of the hardest worked men ou lie ice. He made some miraculous jives, but it was impossible to save Ihem all. Oatman, the star forward of the 1 ingle team broke through several i'mes and carried the game to the pposing goal, but he did not eceive; the .support of his teats Iiates arid .his: efforts came to ought. In the third period the married earn scored three more goals and lie game ended with a score of to 1 in favor of the married men. The winners were on the offen- ive all the time and their forwards ilayed a dashing game and their hooting was excellent;, their de- ence was practically impregnable rod Geo. Bruggy in 'goal was a lower of strength to his team. He ;ook all "that Oatman could give trim and was ready for more. ;. The line-up of the teams were: Married Men; goal, G.

Falooiier and Gus Anderson will bo on the forward line again this year and they still possess the same old dash, speed and shooting qualities, Alice Arm possesses a stone wall defence in Bert Kergin and Don Cameron. Anything that gets by Geo. Bruggy in goal this year has got to be travelling some. ^ T. W. Falconer and M. D. are just as good as ever and both men are playing a brilliant game. Mr. M. D. Ross had the misfortune to fracture his nose in the praotice game on Friday, when he collided with Don Cameron, and he will not be able to play in the game on Sunday. E. R. Oatman, the new forward, is' a' Brother 'or EdSie'Oatriian," captain of the Victoria hookfty team. He is fast, trioky and a dead shot, and is as clean a player as ever donned a pair of skates; Besides being a hockey player he is a first-class baseball and tennis player, also an accomplished musician and a dead shot with the rifle and shot gun. The first match between Alice Arm and Anyox .will be played on Sunday, JanUfry 1st, at Anyox and a first-class game should result When the Alice Arm team plays in Anyox on Sunday, hockey fans can be> sure of seeing a game full of excitement from start to finish. The Alice Arm team are a whirling bunoh of humanity from the time they are on the ice, and it is confidently expected at the Arm that they will romp home easy winners. .j:-V • .... It ^s understood that Anyox prefer* to play the 5 man game. AliceJArm prefers the 6 man game as wa| played last season, and will go ,to|Anyox on Sunday with, the idea of playing six men.

Christmas Trees in this week's Ed. issue.- Alice Arm Skating Rink is Opened i' The Alice Arm skating rink opened its second season last Saturday afternoon and the rink was crowded both in the afternoon and evening with skating enthusiasts who were anxious to again stretch their legs and indulge in the best winter sport it-is possible to obtain. The ice is in first-class condition and throughout the: week the rink has been well .patronised, both in the daytime and the evening and everyone has enjoyed themselves to the limit. Alice Arm is to be congratulated on possessing such a first-class rink- It breaks the otherwise .jdjBll monotony of a northern mining camp and affords good healthy1 recreation for everyone who cares to a,vail themselves of the opporiw^ity.1 The ante room a^jth'e south end of the rink is ft; great convenience both? for the skaters putting-on their skates and also for tlwr'fans at the hookey^games, who can get thawed o$t«betwean the' periods around the'r^hotftbve,. Development Work on Lion Group Mr. Neil Forbes who was down for supplies last week from the Lion Group, states that the tunnel being driven on the property is already in sixty feet and that work is progressing very satisfactorily. The tunnel is to be driven 100 feet, at which distance ore is expeoted to be encountered, and the depth obtained will be seventy feet. The lead for which the tunnel is being driven, has a wjdth on the surface of 13 feet and has beer traced for over 300 feet in length. Samples taken from this lead, 10. feet below the surface assayed 660 ounces silver per ton. The Lion property is directly opposite the town of Alice Arm on the west side, and is about 2| miles distant from the town -and has an elevation of about 1400 feet. It is very conveniently situated regarding shipping facilities and should ore be encountered this winter, another mine will be added to the string of Alice Arm 'sMppem - "-'■-" •■'"'-"*■"•" »<*>#$**» ANYOX NOTES Y't'T'*'T'*'T'*1 *'*' T'*'T '*'T''1 T'"1 ▼ '*'T'*' T'*' » Catholic Bishop Pays a Visit to Anyox The Rt.

Here's a Happy and Prosperous New Year to you all, and a-hoping that Silver will be a $1.00 an ounce and Copper 25 cents per lb. before 1923. Looking Backward and Forward Today brings the year 1921 to a close and tomorrow ushers in a new year and we hope the New Year will also usher in the era of prosperity which we have patiently waited for. Looking back over the past year we must admit that it has not dealt unkindly with us in this district, especially when we consider the unemployment, starvation and privation, prevalent in many other parts of the world. While wages are not *as high as they were a year ago, everyone has managed to live comfortably and no one has been denied the necessities of life., It is exactly a year ago that the first cut in wages was made at Anyox; this was followed by another cut on September 1 st. and was due in both cases to the low price of copper, and both cuts were necessary in order to keep the big plant in operation. Copper, however, is, gradually increasing in price, it is still hovering around 14 cents, and a few more points increase will give the people of Anyox 75 cents per day increase in wages. It is a pity it did not go over 14 cents before the New Year, but if the opinion of all the leading copper experts count for anything it will only be a matter of a few weeks before we see 14 or 15 cent copper and probably higher than .that. While mining has not been as brisk at Alice Arm during the past year as in some of the previous years, yet Alice Arm has a lot to be thankful for, and a lot of valuable work that wi|l bear fruit in future years has been done. During the past year a wagon road nearly a mile in length has been built to the government wharf now under construction. The Illiance River trail has been put in first-class condition and the Kitsault River trail extended to the Glacier. Several new buildings have been erected. and others have been enlarged, which is a good healthy sign. Considerable development work on mining properties has been done during the past year and large bodies of ore have been proven up. Several new important discoveries of high grade ore have also been made, and the work done this year proves conclusively that Alice Arm is one of the richest mining camps in British Columhia. The eyes of the mining world are turning on Alice Arm and the coming year will see a resumption of mining on a bigger scale than has, been done in any previous year. There is too much ore in sight for it to lay undeveloped and this year promises to be the banner year of the camp. The coming year will in all probability see connections made between Alice Arm and the Naas Valley] also a bridge built across the Kitsault River and the Wing Dam lengthened. With this work being done, together with a resumption of mining, Alice Arm can look forward to a year of activity aud prosperity.

Treasurer, Anyox Service Association, Dear Sir: I wish to express my deep appreciation of j;he most liberal manner in which the Ex-Service men of Anyox and your Association contributed toward the Poppy Day Campaign and assure yoii that the effort made so successfully by your town is thought by this1 Command to be a splendid indica^ tion that the objects of Poppy Day were so loyally and spontaneously received. Your letter and cheque for $128 has been handed to me by the secretary of the local branch of the G. W. V. A. and with the exception of the $32 which you donate to the Local Branch Fund, is being applied to the Poppy Day Fund. The $32 is being handed to Mr. P. H. Smith, the Vancouver Branch secretary. From the general results throughout the Dominion it was fouud that nearly three times the number of poppies could have been sold if they had been available and imported by the French committee into this oountry. The lesson gained during the last campaign, however, will result in an adequate number being available for next year's effort, three months in advance, whioh will insure everybody obtaining their full requirements. ■ ™*~..

ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD, Alice Arm, Saturday, December 31st., 1921 (f 0 inadian Institute of Mining to Meet in Vancouver Dolly Varden Mine Will ! Be Discussed The next Annual General Meet- \ of the British Columbia vision of the Canadian Institute Mining and Metallurgy, will be (d in Vancouver during the first iek in February, 1922. The stitute charges itself with the ity of stimulating in every way its power the development and iustry of mining. Essential to at aim is the encouragment of ospecting. At the meeting, at ist one session will be devoted to e consideration and discussion of i»ys and means of promoting ■ospecting activity in British ilumbia. Information will be ■esented indicating potential eas yet unprospected in tho •ovince, supplementing which will i data on such matters as acccess- ility, conditions of travel, etc. in lese areas. The marketing of •ospects will also be debated, and lere will bo general papers upon ich themes as "Aerial photogra- iv as am aid to the prospector" id "The diamond drill as a means prospecting ore bodies." The coal industry of the province ill be fully discussed and papers ill be presented on the "Flotation 1 Coal," and on the "Production id uses of pulverized coal." The treatment of complex ores pontinues to be a live issue in British Columbia. Hence, an interesting contribution on this subject by Mr. W. G. Wolf of the Bunker Hill and Sullivan Mining & Concentrating Company wilt undoubtedly be appreciated, The discovery of an important oil field in the Mackenzie Valley would undoubtedly be of immense significance to this province. Mr. M, Y. Williams' paper on the "Oil possibilities of the Mackenzie River" will therefore be of great interest. Other papers promised inolude: "The Geology of the Britannia Mine" "Mining and Metallurgical Practice at the Britannia Mine," and "The Dolly Varden Mine," whioh last will deal in particular with the mode of occurence of the ore-body at this property. At the preliminary hearing held in Vancouver, on December 24th, charges of criminal negligence Were dismissed against C. P. Browning and N. J. Donohoe; officials .of the Britannia Mining and Smelting Company in connection with the Hood at Britannia Beach, on October 28th, when 36 lives were lost.

The arrangements are in the hands of a capable committee. Come and finish off the old year in grand old style. Great excitement prevailed at the wharf on Tuesday. Smoke was seen issuing from the wharf wharehouse and it was feared the stock in the liquor store would have to be moved, there were many willing hands and throats ready to do the moving, but it was not necessary.
