Gophers: Stewart, Staines-9, Alice Arm Mining Will Receive Impetus This Year As spring approaches, it becomes more apparent that the mining industry of Alice Arm will receive a big momentum. Those of our citizens who have recently visited in the south, return with reports of numerous enquiries being made regarding the district. In mining circles on the outside it is admitted that Alice Arm has the promise of developing into a big prodnoing camp, and it is the general opinion that the camp has now recovered from the injurious effect caused by the closing down of the Dolly Varden, over five years ago. Local owners of mining properties are receiving enquiries from the representatives of influential mining companies, and it is certain that a considerable number of mining engineers will visit the camp this summer. Occasionally a paragraph appears iu the press to the effect that it is reported that the Dolly Varden and Wolf mines will be operated this year, but no public statement has yet been made by the company controlling the property. After thoroughly sifting all reports published iu the press, and from individuals, it is plain that the mining industry will receive an impetus this year, and that it will be of such foreefulness, the momentum will be sufficient for all time. Archdeacon Rix Pays a Visit to Anyox The Ven. Archdeacon Rix was a visitor to Anyox during last weekend, in the interest of the Episcopal Endowment Fund for the Diocese of Caledonia. There was a fair attendance at the meeting in Christ Church on Thursday evening, when the Archdeacon gave an interesting talk on the history of Diocese. On Sunday evening's Service, by request much of the address was repeated, closing with a stirring appeal to the con- gregatien to help liberally towards the amount neoessary for the provision of the next Bishop's stipend. There was a large congregation present, and so far the response has been most gratifying. B. P. 0. Elks Installs New Officers Anyox Lodge No. 47, B. P. 0.

ALICE ARM NOTES f A. F. Smith returned' on Saturday from a business trip to Prince Rupert and Stewart where he was successful in disposing of considera ble stock of the Kitsault River Mining & Development Company. There is a great renewal of interest in the Alice Arm district, he states, and it is the general opinion that the oamp is on the eve of big de- velopments, See Al. Falconer for Freight and Pack Horses Hans Peterson returned on Saturday, from Anyox, where he has spent the past few months at the mine. Mrs. W. M. Cummings returned on Monday from a sit week's trip to Vanoouver, Seattle and other coast towns. Charlie Linberg who is now at Anyox spent a few days in town during the week. Harry Smith has commenced theconstructionof a small bungalow near the Tennis Court. The roof will soon be in place, and the building will then be shortly occupied. at Anyox P. T. A. Meeting At the monthly meeting of the Parent-Teaohers Association . held on Tuesday evening, February 16th Miss Duncan and Dr. H. S. Trefry addressed the meeting on "Child Welfare," and Dr. Davis played a few selections on the piano to the delight of everyone present. Miss Duncan in her address pointed out to the mothers the necessity of upright walking in their children for the benefit of chest development. The necessity of giving plenty of milk, and also to vary its uses, and the need of physical exercises. Miss Duncan complimented the mothers on the cleanliness of the Sohool children of Anyox. Dr. Trefry next addressed the meeting, taking as his subject the "Development of Character" He said that emotion has a great deal to do with the development of a child's character, and parents should take great care to study their children individually. He also impressed the necessity of training at home, by the parents as well as at day school, and Sunday school. He said that from the age of twelve to twenty, the boy was a man in the making. "Feeling his way, he does as he sees, and and his lack of judgement leads him to misunderstanding" Throughout his address he emphasized the responsibility of the parent toward the child. Both speakers were greatly appreciated, and a very enjoyable evening was spent.. Alice Arm Hockey Players Again Suffer Disappointment The hopes of the local hookey players were again shattered during the week, when a rainstorm on Thursday destroyed what hopes might have been entertaiuad of playing hockey on the local rink. The early part of the week gave promise of eojd weather and a nice start was make in flooding and freezing the rink, but the temperature suddenly rose, and with its rise the hopes of the workers on the rink sank. Some skating was available for a few days during the early part of the week on a small piece of ice near the first falls. A trip was also made to Lost lake on Sunday, by a small party. This lake is about three miles from Alice Arm, and as far as is known has never been skated on before- Good luck crowned the efforts of those who made the trip, for on arrival the ice was found to be over four inches thick, and as smooth as glass, and measuring over 1000 feet in length and 800 feet wide. Gorgeous Costumes At Anyox P. T. A. Annual Dance A very successful dance was put on by the Parent-Teachers Association in the Recreation Hall on Monday February 15th. The Hall was very artistically decorated with valentine favors, and it was very plain, even to the casual observer, that great pains had been taken with the costumes. The report of the committee in charge is most gratifying, as the sale of tickets were more than anticipated. The dancing started at 9 p.m. when quite a few of the early comers started to loosen up their joints and get the fioor'in good shape for those that were tofollow later. At 9.45 the floor was pretty well con- • gested. The prizes awarded for the best dressed characters were as follows: Miss Menzies, Crinoline gown of Victorian period. Mr. J. Moore, Spanish Don.

Since that auspic ious occasion some thousands o people have passed through Anyox. Some stopped a few months, an a good number spent several years. The majority of those who follow the mining camps are of a roving dis position, and often those who have no inclination to move join the rov ing ranks, when "the can is tied.' Anyox, is a place where friend ships are made and broken almost every day. On nearly every boat someone is leaving perhaps never to return. They leave behind numerous close friends whom they have made during their stay-perhaps several years. All these ties are broken as the boat leaves the wharf, and very few are likely to be renewed. We were standing on the wharf one fine summer morning last year, when the Cardena was leaving for the south. Among those on board was a family who had spent many years in Anyox. Numerous friends were on the wharf to bid them farewell, It was an ordeal for the lady, to leave so many friends be hind, but she bore it bravely unti the boat commenced to slowly swing from the wharf and then the flow of tears could not be restrained Her husband standing by her side gently led her below, and as he turned for one last look, his eyes were also moist. Both were leaving many friends, who perhaps, they would never see again, and the final snap of the link of friendship was too great for them to bear without emotion. Such is life in a western mining camp, an acquaintanceship of a few years and then goodbye. The smelter of the Granby Co, at Anyox is a big asset to the mineral industry of Northern B. C, and will undoubtedly be bigger as more mining properties are developed to the shipping stage. The smelter is in the midst of a rich mineral bearing zone, and the low rates of water transportation, make it possible to mine and ship at a profit, that would be impossible if the ore had to be shipped a long distance, especially by railway. The Anyox smelter can successfully treat any copper or gold ore and any silver ore except the highest grade. It can not treat lead or zinc, but the Granby Co. would with question install a lead smelter Anaconda Co. Makes Enormous Output of Copper Anaconda Copper Mining Company last year turned out 190,000- 000 pounds of fabricated copper and brass products at its own mill in Great Falls and at the plants of its subsidiary, the American Brass Company, according to a review published in the Wall Street Journal. "In other words," says The Journal's story, "Anaconda and its subsidiary fabricated into finished or seini finished form approximately 25 per cent of the world's production of copper in 1925. "Tlie American Brass Company in 1925 fabricated a much larger tonnage of finished and semi-finished products than ever before in its history and in 1925 the Great Falls wire and rod mill turned out a larger tonnage of wire and rods than ever before was turned out by any single plant in the history of the copper industry. "Production of 790,000,000 pounds of finished and semi-finished materials in 1925 compares with production of 627,680,895 pounds in 1924, increase of 162,300,000 pounds, or almost26 percent. Output of Great Falls plant is being increased one-third and will be in operation at the increased rate of 15,000,000 pounds of rods a month hi the second half of 1926, it is: .expected. Orders on the books of the American Brass Company and the Great Falls wire and rod mill books are one-third larger than they were at the first of last year. Price of copper is somewhat lower than a year ago at this time, but average price of copper for 1925 was about lj cents a pound higher than in 1924, Out look is for appreciable higher average price for copper in 1926 than in 1925."

It is understood that the Granby Co. will be shortly smelting their own concentrates, which will mean that they will be able to handle concentrates for other companies who mill their ore. It is quite possible that when the mining industry of the north is more fully developed, that Anyox will absorb a large portion of the ore mined, and will rank as a custom smelter of considerable proportions. It is taking a long time for this northern part of the province to become developed, but development is nevertheless progressing, and progress will ultimately spell prosperity.

Its ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD, Saturday. February 20, 1926 How London Controls the World's Price of Silver Miners of silver the world over realized considerably more for their product during 1925 than during 1924. Yet a conclusion exactly opposite would be reached by the peruser of the current annual reviews of the silver market by two of the four well known London metal brokers, who meet each business morning to decide for the expectant world what shall be the official price of silver for that day. Messrs. Mocatta & Goldsmith observe, ''There have been no purchase for the Home Mint nor for the Indian Government,' and view of the fact that the Continental purchases have been so much smaller, it is not surprising that the average price for the year is 1| d, lower than that for 1924." Messrs. Sharps & Wilkins say, "The average price has worked out at 32|d. per ounce Standard, as compared with 34d. in the previous year." Neither makes any mention of the price in New York. There are in Britain a great many shareholders in silver mines situated in Canada, Mexico, India, and elsewhere who might be led to believe, if they were to read these reviews, that the silver market had been downward instead of upward bent. As is well known, we on this side of the Atlantic await each day the arrival of cables from London brokers. Then, by translating their figure, expressed in pence per ounce "Standard,"' to cents per ounce 999 line, we obtain the recognized quotation for the day. How, one may fairly ask, can London decline l|d. when the. New York average rose from -66.781c. in 1924 to 69.065? The explanation is this: tlie average price for sterling exchange rose from 441.397c. in 1924 to 482.426c. iu 1925. It is only necessary to adjust the London prices in pence , to its equivalent in terms of American dollars—the real world stan- dard of value in the last few years I —to show that the value of silver J actually increased in London as I well as in New York.—Engineer- ling Mining & Journal Press. Imperial Oil Co. Will Suspend Drilling at Fort Norman After spending more than a million dollars in exploration work, the Imperial Oil Limited has at last obtained a crude oil supply in Canada, it was reported by President C. 0. Stillman at the annual meeting of the company held in Toronto recently. Imperial Oil, the president stated, does not contemplate further drilling operations at Fort Norman but the company is negotiating an arrangement with the Hudson's Bay Company whereby the latter may purchase the crude oil produced by Imperial at that point. It will be treated, at a small refinery at Fort Norman and the product utilized by the Bay company in the North. Big Gold Rush In Northern Ontario Prospectors returning from the Red Lake area say the rush there may attain proportions greater than that of '98 to the Yukon. Hudson's Bay men and natives are amazed at the extent of the trek. Dozens of prospecting outfits are swarming northward over new trails, some gold seekers traveling at night to beat competitors. Old timers say that the traditional friendliness of old prospecting days is absent.
