Christmas Tree & Entertainment Held at Alice Arm [Children of the Town Given a Merry Time The annual Christmas Tree and I concert given to the ohildren of Alice Arm, was held on Saturday evening, at the Coliseum. At the hour of commencement, whioh [ was scheduled for 8 p.m.. the hall was packed to the doors; The Alice Arm children have in 1 the past years been lavishly entertained, but at no time have they enjoyed themselves more fully than they did on Saturday night. The whole juvenile population of the town was there with shilling, j expectant and happy faces, and from the time the orchestra started the '' programme until they tucked their toys away and started for home they enjoyed every minute of the time.

The programme was drawing to a close, when with a whoop, Santa Claus jumped into the Hall, and for about thirty minutes happiness I reigned supreme as Santa handed out his gifts. A substantial supper consisting of lots of good things to eat was then served to everyone.

A special feature of the evening was the artistically decorated drop our- tain on the stage, with its witty* advertising and fancy drawing, the work of the versatile Sam Winner- strom. The danoing, singing and acting of the ohildren was perfeot, and ■ by the quality of the exhibtions given it was'shown that a lot of hard Work had been necessary, both by pupils and instructors to obtain such good results. :.''■■', The hard working ladies serving, on the committees and who were responsible for the success of the evening, were: Refreshments, Mrs. G.

In a short , address, he explained that the gift had been given as a mark of esteem to Mr. Oatman by the people of Alice Arm and his departure from the town would be keenly felt especially in musical and sport circles. Mr. Oatman, who was very much taken by surprise, replied with a ' short address and thanked every one for their kindness to him during hjs stay here.

MOSS, Editor and Publisher. to all uur leaaers Christmas with its joy and mirth has gone again and all of us are back in harness, engaged in our everyday occupations. It is a pretty safe bet that everyone in j Anyox and Alice Arm spent a Merry Christmas, for everyone seemed to be on pleasure bent, and happy faces were in evidence everywhere. Christmas Day is one day in the year that all join in celebrating, and this year was no exception to the general rule. Prosperity Ahead. A few more days and we shall have entered upon another year, and the present year will pass into history. The present year has been a prosperous one for this district, but the coming year promises to be still more prosperous. Not anything can stand still, whether it is an individual, a big business company, or a nation, we either have to go ahead or go back, and the signs for the coming year point straight ahead. During the past year the Granby Co have spent a large amount of money on construction work, at their Anyox plant and at Maple Bay and tbe completion of these projects will provide the district with several valuable assets. The big plant at Anyox has been operated to capacity throughout the year, and the development work going on at Maple Bay is probably laying the foundation of another big mining industiy, from which the district will profit in the years to come. The low price of copper throughout the year has been disappointing to producers, but let us hope that peace and production will shortly reign in Europe, and place the demand for copper at the head of the list of metals instead of at the bottom. The present year has been, for Alice Arm the most prosperous since the Dolly Varden mine closed down, and next year this prosperity will be considerably increased. Logging operations are being planned on a far larger scale than was the case this year and the logging industry alone will mean increased prosperity for the town. In addition to the logging, however, there will also be an increase in mining The famous Dolly Varden is expected to be again operating during 1924 and in addition to this property, plans are being made for the development of several other properties in the district. It is also becoming more widely known throughout the mining world that the Dolly Varden is not the only worth-while property in the district, and the coming year will probably fully prove this assertion as other properties become developed. Alice Arm has the mineral wealth, and it is slowly coming to the front. Slowly at the present time, but as time goes on and more shipping mines come into existence the pace will be increasingly faster each year, until Alice Arm takes her place among the leading .mining camps of the continent. The year 1924 promises to be a better year than 1923, and we should all work together to make each coming year more prosperous than the preceding one. Alice Arm is our home and the cooperation* of everyone is necessary for the welfare of the town. B. C. Division of Canadian Institute ot Mining Will Meet in Vancouver The next Annual Meeting of the British Columbia Division of the Institute will be held in Vancouver on February 15th.

Investigation by the Game Conservation Board under Chairman Jackson last summer showed that suoh inroads had been made on the number of fur^bearing animals in the Province that they were threatening to become extinct, Under the proposed amendments to the Game Act, no aliens, except bonaflde farmers, will be allowed to trap. All trap lines will have to be registered and the trapper will be placed in, the position of a game conservation official. He will have to observe the law strictly and in return will be protected from other trappers. It will be illegal for anyone to .have tin prime pelts of any fur-bearing animal in his possession. Minimum fire-arms licence for aliens will be 10 instead of, $2.50 as at present. Big game hunters will have to be accompanied by guides. All guides will be licenced and will have to prove themselves thoroughly acquainted with the game regulations before being given tickets.

Prompt 'copper can be had at slight concessions, but large producers are holding at 13£ cents delivered or higher, and only second-hands or custom smelters seem willing to sell under that price. \ Germany will consume only a fourth as much American oopper as normally, or 3000 instead of 12,000 tons a month, in the' opinion of American copper exporters. Reasons for the decline is the cripplipg of the Ruhr industry, making it difficult to begin production on a large soale for months: capital shortage making it impossible for manufacturers to build up large stocks of copper and operate on credit; reduced domestic consumption as a result of less housebuilding and decreased use of electric appliances of all sorts, and finally Reich's ceasing to make further reparations deliveries in kind, such as looomotives, machinery, etc Ruhr manufacturers have practically no stocks of oopper on hand, and are buying ho American copper, German eleotroteohnical works, mostly around Berlin, still have some business, but are operating only at half normal output. Locomotive building is coming to a standstill for want of foreign orders, and a penniless railroad system at home.

Premier Mining Co. may Build Railroad Portland Canal News An interesting rumour is current in local business circles purporting to have enaminated from an authentic source, to the effect that the Premier Gold Mining Co intend first thing in the spring, to commence the construction of a railway, from tidewater, just south of the mouth of the Salmon river, to their contemplated new 1,000-ton mill on the east bank' of Casoade creek.. Just what foundation there is for this report, the News is not in a position to say, for it came in too late to be authenticated, but in view of the fact that the Premier is known to be contemplating the construction of large reduction works at or near the portal of the long tunnel, commenced last summer from 13-mile, it would appear that the logical manner for handling the product of such mill would be the construction of a railway. * Therefore the story is reported, as its necessity makes it appear to be founded on fact.
