VOL.3, NO. 17 Alice Arm, B. 0., Saturday, October 20, 1923 . 5 cents each. Monthly Meeting of Anyox Parent-Teacher Association The regular monthly meeting of the Anyox P. T. A. was held in the New Sohool, on Monday, Oot. 8th,, with a i good attendance of both old and prospective members, After the singing of "0 Canada." reports of officers were given and business matters discussed. Mr. Southam, convenor of programme committee, presented an attractive plan for the year's work, having made arrangements whereby various prominent men of Anyox, Prince Rupert and outsid| points will address the Association. Among those mentioned were: Bishop Du Vemet and principal Brady of Prinoe Rupert, Mr. Charlesworth of Victoria and Dr. Harper, Mr. Hafner and Mr. Eve of Anyox; of whom the last mentioned expect to arrange for a radio night when the members will have the privilege of hearing something worth while from afar. Mr. Robertson, who has carefully studied the merits of various models ■ was intrusted with the purohase of a picture machine, to be used in sohool as well as in Association meetings. Many up-to-date schools atid"" Colleges- haw-found "-these machines of inestimable value in their work aud Anyox through the efforts of her school board and P. T. A. is showing herself as progressive as more favored centres in the provision of school equipment. Miss Tassie, who. spares neither time nor strength where the children of Anyox are concerned briefly addressed the gathering on matters relating to the health of the pupils'. Mr. Manzer, Principal of thejhigh school, read an interesting and helpful paper on what the sohool expect of the teacher, This was originally delivered by Miss Ander. son of south Vancouver at a Parent Teaoher Federation meeting. ' It revealed a keenly sympathetic understanding of ohildren on their needs.. Parents were counselled to keep their little one's, boys and girls, longer, by a return to simplicity of life. It is not fitting to let a child experience so much of the world that We oan no longer • think of him, at the age of twenty- one, as on the threshold of a treasure-house of new and wondrous things. The overwhelming importance of the Physical was stressed; Children require REST. In fact a "get to bed early campaign" would not be without point. Attention should be paid, too, to manners; old fashioned courtesy is desirable, and children at home should be taught to respect the right things. Several parents endorsed the ideas expeessed. Mr. McAllister, in lighter vein, was glad to find that the teaoher asked for co-operation and sympathy merely, and did not expeot friend parent at home to teaob all' lessons to be recited next day to a pedagogue leading a life of glorious idleness. Afterwards Mr. Morand delight- Homestake Tunnel Cuts Through Twenty-Three Feet of Ore Work at the Homestake Mine is proceeding Satisfactorily, both underground and outside. The camp buildings, are now completed. The buildings were, constructed by contract by J. Fiva, and comprise bunk-house, dining room and kitchen, blacksmith shop and a building for the compressor plant. The buildings are constructed of logs and will provide good winter quarters for the men, The mine is looking good under development work. The No. 1 tunnel has been driven a distance of 190 feet aud has cut through an ore ledge 23 feet wide. The whole 23 feet is good looking ore, but the precise value oan not be determined until samples have been assayed. The samples have already been sent out for assaying. The depth ofthe tunnel where ore was encountered is 160 feet from the surface. Work on the No. 3 tunnel, has commenced, and will strike the ore at a much greater depth than was the case of the No. 1. Work on this tunnel is being done by contract by J. Fiva and the brothers Johnson. The Alioe Arm Freighting Co- have, twenty tons of supplies at. Trout Creek including the compressor plant. This will go forward to "the. mine as soon as the trail is put into shape for the hauling of go-devils. The compressor will be installed directly on arrival and this will greatly expediate dovelopment work at the mine. Successful Dance Given By Anyox Moose The Reoreation Hall was packed to capacity on Monday last, when the looal "Moose" gave their opening dance. It was Undoubtedly a huge success in every way and great oredit should be given to all concerned especially as this was their initial effort. The hall was decorated in an extremely artistic manner, and the supper served reflects great oredit on the catering manager, Mr. F. W. Clayton. The Women's Legion of Moose contributed in ho Small manner to the success of the evening. The Lodge express their thanks to the Legion, especially to Mrs. Ripe, Mrs. Cross, Mrs. Stanley, Mrs. Grinaldi, Mrs. R. Gill, Mrs. Green, Mrs. J. Hart, and Mrs. Foxjey, TheM. C. was Mr. Jack Sherman, supported by the Dance Committee* consisting of Messrs. Foxley, Clayton, Cross, Hart, Stanley, R. Gill, A. Beaton, F. Rice, J. Varnes, J. McGuire. and; the Lodge Secretary. The orchestra consisted of Messrs. Haesler, piano; Waterman, drums; Varner, horn; Griffen, saxophone; Liddell, violin; Armstrong^ banjo. The Lodge intends to hold a series of entertainments throughout the winter for, (she benefit of their members aiw friends. Full particulars of which will appear at a later date in these columns, Winter Entertainment For Alice Arm The officers of the Alice Arm Social League held a meeting last Monday evening at the School House when several matters'*, were discussed. It was decided to hold a dance at the Alice Arm Hotel, on Saturday' October 20th. and to hold a debate at the Anglican Chtiroh, on Tuesday, October 30th. Mrs. R. F. MoGinnis, vice-president, promised that the ladies \yould provide an evening's entertainment on Tuesday, November 13th. It was also decided to hdld debates as often as possible, during the winter, and also provide other forms of entertainment that may be possible. Dances will be held at least once a month. > Loyal Order of Moose Initiate Alice Arm Members Working on Alice ! Arm Wing Dam Work of extending the wing dam above the town is well under way. Eleven men are employed under the supervision of Mr. J. Wells and the work will take about two months to complete. The present dam will not be raised, but work will be concentrated on extending the present structure so as to afford protection for the pier of the bridge on the west bank of the Kitsault river. This work will also stop the river from cutting through the unprotected space now existing between the present dam and the main stream of the Kitsault river, a protection that was greatly needed. Up to the time of going to press no word has been received as to when the construction of the bridge will be commenced, but it is probable that work will be started as soon as the dam is completed and perhaps before. Big Boom of Logs Ready For Shipment -.- A big boom of logs comprising 26 sections is now ready at F. Miller's logging oamp, for shipment to the Big Bay Lumber Co. at Georgetown and a tug boat is ["expected at any time to tow out the boom. Logging operations at the camp are still proceeding and work on making another boom will be undertaken as soon as' the present one leaves. Sixteen men are now working at the camp.- The high lead system of hauling the logs from the woods is being used, and equipment consists of one yarder and one loading engine. Work of falling timber is also being carried on across the bay opposite the oamp, this work being done by contract. ed the audience with solos, and the pleasant evening came to a olose with the serving of refreshments. The date of the next meeting has been ohahged to Oot. 26th. in order that the Association may have the privilege of an address by Bishop Du Vernet of Prinoe Rupert. Another Ore Shipment From Esperanza The Alice Arm Freighting Co. commenced this week to haul over thirty tons of high grade ore from the Esperanza mine. As soon as the ore is landed at the wharf, it will be snipped south. ' •■ Work of mining ore is steadily proceeding. The ore being mined at the present time is from a shoot nearly three feet wide, in the tunnel above the Baldy tunnel. A fine speoimen of ore was brought to town this week showing chunks of native silver in a white quartz. Nineteen residents of Alice Arm were initiated into the mysteries of the Loyal Order of Moose, on Sunday last at the Welcome Pool Room Twelve members of Anyox Lodge No. 1412 came over on the Awake on Sundayi morning, included in the party were a number of officers for the;purpose of .conducting jhfe ceremony, which was held in the afternoon and the party left at 4 p. m. for the return trip. For some it was their first visit to Alice Arm, and they were surprised at the wealth of wonderful scenery and the prosperous aspect of the town. It was the opinion of the visitors that a lodge will be instituted in Alice Arm in the near future. A good start""having been already made towards that end, meantime Alice Arm members will belong to the Anyox Lodge. ANYOX NOTES t L * -- ■* - * - A.-.A - \,m, A,«.

Northern Polytechnic Classes ltis indeed, disappointing, that the classes of the Northern Polytechnic Institute, scheduled to commence in Alice Arm, on October 8th. has, so far, failed to start. Failure of procuring suitable instructors and failure of the public to make an effort to support the classes, are the chief causes why the classes have not commenced. It is possible, however, that some classes may yet be arranged, but valuable time is being lost, and. it is possible, that should the scheme prove to be a fizzle this year, that the management will in future, not bother to go to the trouble of trying to organize classes in Alice Arm, and the people of the larger centres will be in a position to improve their education, an advantage that the dwellers of the small town will not possess, Alice Arm Social League Now that the Alice Arm Social League has been formed, it is for everyone to help along the good work, and this can be done in various ways, namely, by taking an active part in the different entertainments; by giving ypur time willipgly when necessity arises for a few minutes work, and by being a booster at all times. If we don't want classes for. our education, then let us spend some of our evenings in healthy recreation. The officers of the League will do their best to provide entertainment, and with the support of the people of the town, failure is impossible. Operation of the Dolly Varden The reported option on the Dolly Varden, by New York capitalists published by us last week, was gratifying news. It shows that the•> operation of the Dolly Varden is a live issue, and sooner or later, the'property will be put into commission. It also shows that the owners do not intend to let the plant go to ruin, and so lose one of their most valuable assi The plant as it stands today is in fairly good shape, and whoever operates the mine will not bi required to spend large sums of money on transportation, power and buildings. Those who know the, Dolly Varden and Wolf and the properties adjacent, are not worrying over the chances of their ever being developed, The truth is, that there is too much ore in sight in the upper Kitsault country for it to lie idle indefinitely. Almost every mining camp starts with a hetic boom. Then comes the reaction, with a period of idleness. After that comes the re-birth, and a start is again made, in which the operators profit by the mistakes of their predecessors. Owners of prospects "come back to earth", in regard to price, and are ready tn talk business, and if the camp is a good one, the foundation of a permanent industry is laid, and those who stayed with the camp through thick and thin are the one's who win. School Text Books To Be Revised An announcement made by Hon. J. D. McLean, provincial secretary, is to the effect that following the conference of Deputy ministers of Education of. the four western provinces, the curricula of the public schools will be revized. Other important changes calculated to improve thepublicschools system, including longer training periods for teachers, also are expected to result from the conference. The text books of geography, gram- mer, arithmetic, and spelling will be revised and it is expected that each province may manufacture its own text-books. ) \ Taken all in all the revisions in the schools system are the result of artong period of investigation and a material improvement in general educational methods is anticipated. The people of British Columbia thrbugh the government have sent the stricken citizens of Japan a gift, of $45,000 worth of shingles and lumber, A special warrant for this amount was KUSAULT CAFE ALICE ARM Meals Served at All Hours BREAD AND PASTRY ALWAYS FOR SALE GUS.

Guggenheim Interests Are Bonding Properties The Federal Mining Co.. a subsi- dary company of the Guggenheim interests, have taken over the Diamond Belle and Silver Queen properties in addition to several other properties controlled by them on Hudson Bay and Dome mountains, near Smithers.

You can rave, you Isaac Waltons, of the glories of the stream, Of the sunshine of existence you afford me not a gleam; The romance'of the brooklet I can never seem to get, To me it's merely water wh,ioh is develish cold and wet, If the poetry of motion lies in casting out a line, I'll have prosaic movement in the portion that is mine, , For when gently on the water I essay the fly to oast, - It lodges in my panties and remains there hard and fast; : And when from hide and clothing I at last have cut it fi*ee* .-' And (last again,1 it always snags a rock or bush or tree.

No longing tor the great outdoors with great insistent tugs, Instead I see mosquitoes and a million other bugs.

You take the open spaces, and give me a house instead, You sleep ot boughs and boulders, but give me a standard bed.

Special to the Herald *- Foreign sales around 2,000,(100 pounds and domestic price 13 1-2 cents delivered. Refineries almost-swamped. Foreign and domestic buying of copper is slightly less active, Prices •remain firm except that aside ship, price is about 1-8 cent a pound, easier, being back again to 131-2 cents. Foreign sales during the last 24 hours, aside ship and c, i. f„ have been around 2,000,000 pounds for, export association and independents! despite decline in London'Metal exchange quotation. Both in the domestic and the foreign markjBt the tendency is appearing tftv consumers to await clearer indication of wnat is" to- result in Germany from abandonment of passive resistance as well as to see what is to be the French attitude. Continuance of the high rate of recent foreign buying can not be expected and a temporary lull should be looked for. In fact foreign demand has been so strong for wire bars during the last two months that it is necessary to wait to'fill orders upon 136-pound wire bars, which' are the standard weights of wire bars for foreign shipment. This is the first time that this has occurred in ten years, and indicates that with stocks bf refined exhausted, which were in hands of Oopper Export Association the large increase in foreign demand of the last two months coming on top of record breaking,, domestic shipments has practically swamped the refineries so that with normal, forces of men they can not keep up with orders. Price oielectrolytic copper for domestic shipment is 131-2 cents a pound delivered to end of year. Price aside ship is 131-2 cents New York.
