Riot of Color at Mine
Masquerade Ball
The big annual Masquerade Ball
held at the Mine Hall on Tuesday
was a very successful affair.     •
It was under the auspices of the
Mine Club, whose officers worked
hard to give an evening's enjoyment
to those attending.
The floor was thronged with
dancers, attired in every conceivable
form of dress. It was a gay and
happy gathering and the splendid
decorations lent a wealth of color to
the attractive scene.
The Mine Melodians were at their
best, and their superb rendering of
the various numbers was taken full
advantage of by the happy revellers.
It was a dancer's paradise, and
everyone was bubbling over with
pep, tripping the light fantastic
until the early hours of morning,
when thoughts began to wander to
that much abused word, work.
Some were ready to "hit the ball"
till breakfast time, but the tired
orchestra were bent on snatching a
few hours sleep before the sweet
tones of the morning whistle awoke
them from their slumbers.
The Mine Club deserve great
credit for the splendid success, and
everyone should join the club thus
giving support to its officers.'
On Wednesday March 16th. at
the hour of 9 p.m. at the Beach
Gymnasium, under the Auspices
Catholic Social Club, the Annual St.
Patrick's Dance will be staged, the
Mine Melodians supplying themusic.
A special feature of interest at
this affair will be a "Midnight
Surprise," so be sure and attend
this event and you are assured by
those in charge of spending an enjoyable evening.

E. MOSS, Editor and Publisher.
The government of British
Columbia is learning in the school
of bitter experience that an intimacy with liquor brings trouble.
Liquor is a bad thing to be associated with. It generally brings
grief to all connected with it,
whether a person drinks it or peddles it. The present system of
handling liquor brings the government into direct contact with the
liquor interests and this contact is
liable to contaminate. The best
interests of the country would be
served by reverting to the system
of hotel bars, which was in vogue
before the present experimenting
commenced. Experience of the
last few years have shown that a
government can not become the
people's liquor salesman and escape
criticism and scandal. The government should make serious efforts
to cut loose from the present system. Giving licenses to hotels and
allowing no infringements of the
law would be far better than the
present mess.
He has achieved success who has
lived well, laughed often and loved
muoh; who has gained the respect
of intelligent men, and the love pf
little children; who has filled his
niche and accomplished his task;
who has left the world better than
he found it, whether by'an improved
poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued
soul; who has never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty, or failed
to express it; who has always
looked for the best in others and
given the best he had; whose life
was an inspiration; whose memory
a benediction.
Instead of Canada being spoken
of lis.'the "Granary of the Empire,''
she now aspires to a wider title,
for in 1926 she led all countries in
the export of wheat and flour,
having exported 212,000,000 bushels of wheat. Argentine came a
poor second with a little less than
65,000,000 bushels: Australia with
43,000,000; and the United States
with 40,000,000; thus Canada alone
has exceeded the exports of these
countries by over 64,000,000 bushels, Canada's exports of flour amounted to 8,163.000 barrels; the
United States 7.430,000 barrels;
and Australia 3,750,800 barrels.
It is only the live business man
who can make advertising pay.
Another Property Under
Bond Marmot River
Portland Canal News
The Chinook group of six claims
situated on the divide between the
head of the north fork of the Marmot river and Barney Gulch creek,
the latter flowing into Bear river
about two miles north of Stewart,
has been bonded by Hugh B. Mo-
Guire for John Angus McDonald
from L. E. Bigham and W. R. McDonnell of Hyder, the latterowning
a quarter interest in the property.
The group is recorded as adjoining
the Porter Idaho group on the
north.
A cash payment of $1500 was
made, and the bond provides for
either of two final settlements, optional with the purchaser. The
first is for the balance on $50,000
to be paid by the first of next Aug
ust, and the second calls for$75,000
in payments spread over a term of
two years.
No work of prominence has been
done on the property, being confined to annual assessments which
consisted of surface crosscutting
and stripping. The ground is so
located as to carry the northern
extension of the Porter Idaho and
Prosperity leads.
B. C. Tobacco Growing
Rapidly Expanding
The best tobacco produced in
Canada is being grown in the
Okanagan, declared J. W. Jones,
member for that constituency,
before the public accounts committee, during a discussion on loans
granted on the industries department.
The Stettler Cigar Company,
which operated on a loan of $35,-
000 from the government, was
stated by Major Martin, head of
the industries department, to be
operating with success at Kelowna.
The industry is seeking to develop a market with Great Britain,
where a substantial preference, as
high as 40 per cent., is granted to
empire grown tobacco. The company's liabilities to the government has been reduced by half, and
the public accounts committee
agreed that it was satisfactory
business as far as the public funds
were concerned.

Legislature   Prorogued
on Monday
The Legislature prorogued on
Monday night, when Lieut. Governor Bruce gave his official assent
to eighty-two bills. The session,
which started off like a lion ten
weeks ago with charges and counter
charges flung across the floor of the
House, went out like the traditional
lamb with nothing thrown about
except shafts of wit and contents of
desks and waste paper baskets.
In good humor the members celebrated the release from their duties
by relegating dignity to the background and indulging in a regular
battle in which books, papers and
everything else movable served as
ammunition. In a few minutes, the
floor of the chamber was knee deep
with documents through which the
cheering and laughing members
struggled to the corridors.
Prior to the arrival of the lieutenant governor to prorogue the House
R. H. Pooley, Conservative house
leader, made a final effort to renew
the battle on the government's taxation bill and have its provisions with
respect to natural resources eliminated. The House however, would
have none of the new amendments,
voting them down 23 to IS when
they were going through the committee stage. A number of resolutions were left to die a parliamentary
death. These included the "'better
terms" motions broughtin by Premier Oliver and H. D. Twigg, Conservative member for Victoria.
Last year British Columbia had
five mills manufacturing pulp and
paper. The output for the year
amounted to 230,723 tons of pulp,
made up of 95,514 tons of sulphite,
168,856 tons of sulphate, 121,363
tons of ground wood.
It matters not if you are ignorant, for you will meet people daily
who knows it all.
