Esperanza Mines  Ltd.
Plan Extension Of
Operations
The Esperanza Mines Ltd. will
continue development work at the
Esperanza Mine throughout the
coming summer, states H. B. Bowyer, general manager of the com
pany who inspected the mine this
week.
Mr. Bowyer stated that it is hoped
to considerably increase the work
ing staff at the mine in the near
future, when a two-drill compressor plant will be installed. The
power will be supplied by a Deisel
oil engine, and is expeoted to have
everything in running order early
this summer.
Development work at the mine is
being 'concentrated on the driving
of the No. 9 tunnel. The tunnel is
being driven to tap an extensive
vein of gold bearing ore, and it is
expected that this ore body will be
encountered by the driving of an
additional 30 feet. During the
driving of the tunnel a body of low
grade ore was cut, and this will
probably be utilized later when a
concentrating mill is installed.
It has been decided to group the
twelve claims adjoining the Esperanza, and controlled by the company, into 2 groups of 8 and 4
claims respectively. When this
has been done, development work
will be concentrated on the claims
containing the best ore bodies.
Mr. Bowyer stated that the com
pany  is in   a   healthy condition,
both financially and also in respect
to the successful development of
the mine.
Accompanying Mr. Bowyer was
Robert Blauce, President of the
company, Angus MacDonald and
Norman Fraser, directors. The
latter is also foreman at the mine.
Angus MacDonald, who is well
known ill the district, was kept
busy during his visit renewing old
acquaintances.
Mr. Blance expressed himself as
perfectly satisfied with operations
being oarried on at the mine, and
will make a further examination
during the late summer.
The Esperanza Mines Ltd. are
to be congratulated on the resourcefulness and tenacity displayed in carrying ou development
work in face of the present depression, when se many milling com
panics have closed down. There is
no doubt, however, but that their
perseverance   will   be   rewarded.
Football   Club   Make
Plans and Elect
Officers
Members of the Anyox football
olubs and their supporters held
their annual organization meeting
at the Recreation Hall on Sunday
evening. There was a good attendance, plans were made for the
forthcoming season and officers
eleoted for the coining year.
The new officers are: President,
T. Sanderson; Vice President, T
W. Pinckney; Secretary, W. J.
Johnson. The executive commit
tee will consist of the managers
and captains of the three teams
entered for this year's competition.
The Celts, Smelter and Mine will
again field teams this year and
clash for honors.
Fred Williams has again signed
up for the Celts. Fred is a footballer of considerable calibre and
represented Wales in a schoolboy
international game, prior to coming
to Canada.
The Celts will have several new
players in their line up, and the
Mine team will also field hew play
ers. The teams are very anxious
to get started, and this year's football promises to be even more attractive than last year. The playing season will commence earlier
this year on account of the early
spring, and a few friendly games
will be played before the league
matches are commenced.
Esperanza Extension Tunnel
Will Be Extended
During his visit to Alice Arm
this week, Mr. Angus MacDonald
made arrangements for assessment
work to be done on his mining
claims, the Esperanza Extension
This work will consist of extending the present tunnel, which is
being driven towards the Esperan
za mine, and which, when completed, will be available to tap at
depth the ore deposits on the
Esperanza.
They have a very promising property, with a good past record and
a bright future. Its ores contain
gold, silver, lead and also tungsten
It has been reported upon favorably by many mining engineers.
It is also close to tidewater, thus
affording cheap transportation.
If some other mining companies
showed the same dauntless spirit
iu carrying on operations during
dull times many men would be employed who are now idle.

The Granby Bay School
Board Hosts At An
At Home
The second annual At Home
held by the Granby Bay School
Board at the Gymnasium on March
30th. was well attended and a very
pleasant evening was spent by
those who accepted the invitation.
The chairman of the evening
was Mr. Dan Macleod, who gave a
short and interesting address. A
short speeoh was also given by Mr.
W. R. Lindsay in regard to ad van
tages obtained from study of night
school classes.
The exhibition of the work of
the art classes attracted much
attention, the work showing a high
degree of ski'l. The first prize for
this class was won by Barbara Lee
and the second by Harold Dresser.
All the work for competition was
skilfully executed and difficulty
was experienced in choosing the
best two. Mrs. A. H. Stewart
presented the prizes.
Both the art class and steno
graphy olasses were seen in action
and their work was afterwards
admired by the audienoe. Diplo

It was a very enjoyable evening
and the excellence of the products
shown by the students and the
capable manner in whioh arrangements were oarried out adds considerable prestige to the instructors
of the night school classes, and
those responsible for the social
evening.

Badminton Season Ends
With An Amusing
Tournament
About forty members of the
Anyox Badminton Club excelled
themselves in the art of masquerading for their final tournament
and social evening in the Gymnasium on Tuesday.
The event was confined to members only, and many who would
have liked to take a peep at the
gay aud novel tournament found
the way barred. The male members were dressed in female attire.
The dresses and make-ups were
wonderful, and many varied char-
aoters were portrayed. The ladies
attired as mere men were equally
successful in their efforts.
The tournament turned out to
be exceedingly comical, some playing left-handed, others kneeling on
the floor, and in addition to these
handicaps weighted shuttles were
played with, and also table tennis
or ping-pong balls were used in
place of shuttles.
Some of the men found their
skirts rather impeding their play,
but all joined in the spirit of the
novel tournament. Many of the
men looked very charming indeed,
and oii3 particular member por
trayed one of Dicken's celebrated
characters, "Sarah Gamp" in fine
style, or otherwise he was attempting to cut Marie Dressier out.
The best dressed "lady" on the
floor was Mr. J. A. D. Stewart,
and in the terms of one of the
male" players looked perfectly
charming. The prize for the best
dressed "man" on the floor was
awarded to Mrs. W. G. Johnstone,
whose make up almost resembled
Syd. Chaplin.
Another member dressed as a
country girl, with flaxen curls of
wood shavings, caused much merriment; while other serious members of the community were attired
in startling oostumes.
All the oostumes were very good
and it would be hard to give adequate praise to each of those who
took part.
In the terms of one of the players, it was "a large evening" and a
wonderful wind-up to the Badminton Club's successful year.
The annual' meeting of the
Woman's Auxiliary of St. Mich
ael's Church, Alice Arm, will be
held on Tuesday, April 7th. at 2.30
p.m. at the Alice Arm Hotel.

The Hon. W. A. Gordon, Federal Minister of Mines, certainly
spoke the truth when he stated at
the annual convention of the Canadian Institute of Mining and
Metallurgy that "the mining industry was the great trade stabilizer of
Canada during adverse economic
conditions." The big mining companies operate as near maximum
as possible during hard times.
Other industries close their doors,
or work a very small staff, arid the
logging companies close down
altogether, throwing thousands out
of work, until better prices prevail.
Closing down a big mine and ore
reduction plant is, however, an
expensive operation. Somehow,
the mining company must struggle
along, and in doing so it keeps
thousands of men employed.
Spends millions of dollars in equipment and various supplies. Supplies tonnage to the railways and
steamship companies, and as Hon.
W. A. Gordon stated, acted as the
great trade stabilizer. It is in times
of stress that the benefits of the
Canadian mining industry is realized. Imagine every mine, mill
and smelter closed down in British
Columbia. It would create an
army of unemployed that the authorities would be unable to cope
with. Every encouragement
should be given the mining industry for the greater it is, the less
hard times bear upon us.
A Review of Canada's
Eleven Premiers
Henry Ford, the great car manufacturer, unburdened himself a
few days ago by saying that "good
times prevail, but the people do
not realize it." It is pretty hard
for people who have been unemployed for six or twelve months to
fool themselves that times are
good. Especially if the wife or
children are sick, no money to pay
for medical attendance, no food in
the cupboard, and holes showing
in the clothes and shoes. It is
also hard for even the business
man to realize that good times prevail, when trade is falling off, taxes
increase, overhead expenses stay
almost normal, a growing family to
be educated and perhaps mortgages
to pay off, on a dwindling weekly
income.

Ottawa, March 28; (Special to
the Herald). Canada has had
eleven premiers. Two of them
have been bachelors; two of them
have held office twice. The shortest term was that of Sir Charles
Tupper in 1896. The longest continuous term was Sir Wilfred
Laurier's, from 1896 to 1911, but
Sir John A. Macdonald still holds
the record of having been Premier
longer than anyone else, not counting his premiership before Confederation.
The average age of our Premiers
when they took office is between
60 and 61 years. Sir Charles Tupper was the oldest man to become
Premier and the Rt. Honorable
Arthur Meighen the youngest.
Eight of our Prime Ministers have
been members of the Imperial
Privy,Council, although Sir Charles
Tupper was not until long after he
had ceased to be Prime Minister.
Six of our Prime Ministers have
been knighted; one was a baronet.
Six Premiers have been members
of. the bar. One Prime Minister
Sir John Thompson, had baen a
judge. All our Prime Ministers
have been members of the House
of Commons;   Sir  John   Abbott,

Mining Is Canada's
Trade Stabilizer
Ottawa—The mining industry
has exercised a stabilizing influence
upon the country during the adverse
economic conditions to an extent
exceeded by practically no other
single business, Hon. W. A. Gordon, federal minister of mines, told
the annual convention of the Canadian Institute of mining and metallurgy.
Mr. Gordon declared the industry
had the support of the federal
government. It was the institute's
32nd annual gathering and delegates were from every province.
In his presidential address Dr.
J. S. DeLury, mining commissioner
of Manitoba, said the forging ahead
of Canada as a gold producer had
been one of the bright spots of last
year.
Manitoba Farmers Not
Paying Taxes
Only 130 farmers in Manitoba paid
income tax in 1929, it was revealed
in the report of the Manitoba Tax
Commission, tabled in the legislature recently. A total of 2,570
farmers made returns but only 130
paid into the government's coffers
and they contributed only $2,400.
Employees, it was shown, pay
far the greater part of the provincial income tax. Over sixteen
thousand employees contributed
$453,100 while 930 merchants and
manufacturers were assessed $123,-
900. The gasoline tax netted the
government $1,580,970 in 1929.
More Persons Coming From
U. S. A. Than Going In
Ottawa, March 21; (Special to
the Herald). Nearly 3000 more
Canadians and immigrants entered
Canada from the United States
during the first ten months of 1930
than entered the United States from
Canada.
Statistics for the 10 months of
the calender year 1930 indicate that
50,558 immigrants and Canadians
Returning to Canftda left the United
States during this period as compared with 47,661 immigrants and
American citizens entering the
United States from Canada. These
figures indicate that Canada received 2,897 more persons from the
United States during this period
than entered the United States
from Canada.
Canada's manufactures, valued
per capita, now stand at $390,
comparing with $564 on a similar
basis in the United States.

Country. He freighted the supplies over the Dolly Varden. railway to the snow, and from there
will transport them by hand sleigh
which is quite an undertaking.
Mr. Strombeek is one of the few

who has stuck through thick and

now claim his attention, and the

Decrease In Revenues
Worries Government
Ottawa, March 28, (Special to
the Herald). The problem of making shrinking revenues meet emer-
gencies in a period of general
depression is exemplified in the
February financial statement of the
Government. Covering eleven
months of the fiscal year it indicates
a drop of $79,352,366 in ordinary
revenue and an increase of $21,-
095,076 in   ordinary   expenditure.
Increased expenditure is largely
accounted for by relief measures
and by increased pension payments.
During the eleven months ended
February 28 last ordinary revenue
amounted to $322,729,407 as compared with $402,082,773 for   the
