Ice Carnival at Alice Arm Races and Dancing Again Indulged In The seoond loe Carnival of the season was held at the Alice Arm Skating Rink, on Saturday evening, and on this oooasion the ladies were the hosts. The affair was even a greater succes than the previous week, and the ladies certainly lived up to their enviable reputation of being energetic workers, organizers and fun providers. For the success of the evening, great credit is due to Mrs. H. F. Kergin, who was manager and organizer. The programme was along simi- lines of the previous week, exoept that comic, novelty and relay races predominated. A large crowd was in attendance, and great enthusiasm prevailed among the contestants of the races. Several of the races were real funny and brought roars of laughter from the spectators. A speoial feature of the evening was an exhibition of fancy skating by Mr. B. Jones. The skating of Mr. Jones was a treat not very often obtainable in these parts, and everyone hopes that he will give similar exhibitions before the season is past. At the conclusion of the programme, snpper, consisting of doughnuts and hot coffee was served by the ladies. Dancing was then indulged in to the tune of the excellent orchestra consisting of 0. Hutchison, clarinet J. Fiva, guitar; L. Johnson, mandolin. Dancing concluded a few minutes before midnight, with everyone well pleased with the evening's amusement.

John Conway, stipendary magistrate and government agent for Anyox, the Herald's reporter recently made an inspection of the new building. He was impressed with the roominess of the whole struoture and the attention given by the contractors to details. One great point about the Court House is its aocoustic properties, which are perfect. The Government Agent's offices are large and well appointed, while the accomodation provided for Constable A. R. Dryden is excellent. Anyox Minstrel Troupes Are Training Both the Moose and Elks are busily engaged in perfecting this new form of entertainment which will be warmly welcomed in Anyox. At the time of writing we do not possess the data on the Elks' troupe. As far as the Moose are concerned they will put on a troupe of fourteen performers with orchestra. Rehearsals are underway and when letter perfeot, the Moose Minstrels will make their bow to Anyox audiehoes. Progress Made on Union Church Manse During the past two weeks Messrs. Greer, Beatty & Douglas have been forging ahead with the Manse for the Union Church, and Rev. Herdman should soon be in possession of his new home if they keep up the same rate of progress.

We noticed "Doo" playing a vigorous game of basketball recently we are glad he still retains his old form and has not left his basketball ambitions behind. Mr. George Brown of the Granby Store pogseses a remarkable "Air- dale terrier" the most peculiar point about it is viz. it's color. Our correspondent lost a bet on this during the week by staking on the "black." . Will George tell us the colour of the dye? Mr. Noel Ballion's strenuous training in the snow the past few weeks has evidently had effect. His showing at the ' Gym." whilst playing for the Rovers was excellent, keep it up! Mr. and Mrs. A. Grimaldi left on the Prince Rupert for Vancouver. Mr. Grimaldi having relinquished his job at the Mine, we understand he will return to Anyox after a vacation. Who was it that said that Mr. George Lace is the best dancer in Anyox? He seems to have very nearly "hit the truth." Mr. Frank Gigot is baok again in harness, we wish him the best of luok and a complete recovery. On Monday night, the B. P. O. Elks elected new officers for the coming year. Mr. Ed. Waterman was elected Exalted Ruler, in succession to Mr. H. B. Chapman.

Apologies for lack of Anyox notes Basketball Anyox Tuxis Boys vs. Coke Plant Three games of basketball were on tap at the Gym. on Friday. All were close and exciting and full of action. The first game brought together the Tuxis and the Coke Plant which resulted in a win for the former by 30 to 20. The Tuxis boys were again in the lead in the first half as they were in their game with the Rovers but weakened in the final minutes of play. Too much bunching of players seemed to be the main fault of this team. The guards do not check their men close enough. Coke Plant; G. Thompson, J. Thompson, Hogben, Smith Ballen- tyne and Gow.

Married Men Win in a Fast Game Owing to the mild weather only one hockey game has been played on the loca] rink since our last issue. Thi« game was played between the married and single, men of the town, and was the first of a series of games to decide the championship. While this was the only game there was perhaps, as much hard work and puck chasing condensed into it as would constitute three ordinary games. It was a torrid, hectic game from the time the starting whistle blew until the final shriek ended a thrilling game in which the married men came off victors with a score of 4-2. It was a ding-dong battle of brilliant rushes and energetic checking throughout. All rules went to the boards, as so did some of the players with a little assistance. Both teams strained ev£ry*)iis_ue to assert their superiojjtyf'but the married men were'tne first to score and they kept the lead, never being seriously in danger of defeat. The. single team, however, were not out in full strength or a different story may have to be told. For the winners, T. W. Falconer Gus. Anderson, and Geo. Bruggy were the shining lights, while for the single men, Charlie Drennan played a wonderful game. He never spared himself a minute of play, aud scored both goals obtained by his team. S. Wickwire in goal gave a wonderful exhibition of stopping the rubber. The teams were: Married, G. Bruggy, goal; R. F. McGinnis, G. Young, T. W. Falconer, G. Anderson, E. Moss. Single: S. Wickwire, goal; C. Drennan, J. Wilson, M. Smith, H. Fowler, S. Winnerstrom. Referee, W. Cummings. Esperanza Mine Ships Ore Seven hundred sacks of ore recently brought down from the Esperanza mine were shipped to Anyox Smelter for treatment last Monday, on the S. S. Chelohsin. Three hundred sacks contained high grade argentite silver ore, the balance being secondary ore. Eight men are now working at the mine taking out ore, and the property is looking as good as ever. Work Commenced on Kitsault River Bridge Preparations for the construction of the Kitsault river bridge com-; meuced this week under the supervision of Mr. Paul McMaster. Work at present consist's of assembling material on the ground and the construction of a pile-driver which will be used for driving the piles of the piers. From eight to ten men are employed. The ladies in charge of arrangements of last Saturday's. Ice Carnival, wish to thank everyone who helped towards the evening's success. msmsMssssssmkm ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD, Alice Abm, Saturday, Februuary 2, 1924 Definite Policy of Immigration (or Canadian National Railways WHEN, a little more than a year ago, Sir Henry W. Thornton, K. B. E., was chosen to head the Canadian National Railways, ,._,_,._.„,.,„„„,„ one of his first acts was to put into motion machinery for aiding in the colonization and development of Canada, particularly along the lines of the National System, He realized that one of the crying needs of Canada was for more population, and he has since been quoted, on several occasions as saying that if Canada had a population of twenty-five mil- Ion people, Canada would have no railway problem. The organiza- tion of a depart- Dr. W. ment to look after colonization and development was entrusted by Sir Henry to Mr. W. D. Robb, Vice- President, and Mr, Robb at once proceeded to build up the necessary organization to look after this most important national work. Investigations, conferences and careful planning gradually brought into being an effective department, the effort of the year culminating in the engagement of Dr. \V. J. Black, Deputy Minister of Immigration and Colonization in the Federal Government, as Manager of the Colonization and Development Department of the Canadian National Railways; with headquarters ■ in London. England, That was early in .the Fall of 1923. Dr. Black proceeded at once to Great Britain, where he spent some weeks carrying out a series of investigations. These completed, he returned to Canada and a general conference of all officers of the department was called and a definite plan of colonization and development was drawn un and announced. This was the first definite announcement on immigration to be announced in Canada. Dr. Black's Career In engaging Dr. Black, the Canadian National Railways secured an officer who is probably better acquainted with the immigration needs of Canada, and the best methods of remedying those needs, than any other man in the country. All his life he has been connected with the argricultural industry and has run the gauntlet of all its intricate phases. He was born and brought up on a farm in Dufferin County, Ontario, and in 1902 graduated from the Ontario Agricultural College with a Toronto University degree. At his graduation he was appointed editor of the "Farmers' Advocate," Winnipeg, Manitoba, and he held this post for two years. In 1905 he joined the Government of Manitoba as Deputy Minister of Agriculture, a post which he left the following year to became President of the Manitoba Agricultural College. He remained in this important position until 1916, when he became Commissioner of Agriculture for Canada. At the conclusion of the Great War in 1918, Dr. Black was appointed Chairman of the Soldiers' Settlement Board of Canada, a position he held until his appointment, in 1921, as Deputy Mini'ster of Immigration and Colonization for Canada. Dr. Black is a man who is thoroughly respected, both for his opinions and his achievements, throughout Canada. He carries a r __, v„v„. lasting and gen- w,«.»:»««»™«.. u._e enthusiasm into his work, and as a quiet but eloquent and convincing speaker he is well fitted to broadcast the message of his important mission. The Policy. There are seven points to the programme which has received the approval of Sir Henry W. Thornton, and the principles of policy will be placed into effect immed- iately. Dr, Black sailed for England again on January 5th, and on his arrival in J. Black London his de partment commenced to function actively. The thorough character of the policy can be judged from a recapitulation of the seven principles, which are as follows: 1—To influence the immigration and satisfactory settlement in Canada of the largest possible number of people of productive capacity that the country can absorb and assimilate. 9—To contribute to the dissemination of information concerning the vast and extensive natural resources of the Dominion and the widespread opportunities for industrial development, so that capital may be attracted from other countries and invested where enterprises will be legitimately rewarded. Q—To promote the land settlement of new Canadians under conditions that will ensure the maximum possibility of success in their farming operations, and enable them to enjoy such social and religious institutions as are necessary to individual happiness and contentment. A—To encourage improvement in agriculture, that more diversified methods may be employed in farming, and that crop, livestock, and dairy production may be increased in accordance with market demands and prospects, Pj—To assist by organized effort in the immigration of young people of desirable type and character, especially from Great Britain, and in their placement in respectable rural homes where they may become qualified to participate in constructive activities and acquire citizenship of distinct value to Canada. g—To aid in the development of jiew opportunities for service and to facilitate every effective means of selecting immigrants physically fit and anxious for work. 7—To co-operate with the Federal and Provincial Governments and business organizations throughout the Dominion in promoting all measures calculated to contribute toward an increase in immigration of adaptable people, and in their settlement under the f most favorable conditions possible.

This rule we understood is used in all games at Prince Rupert and with success and if they oan use it successfully in Rupert there is no reason why it cannot be put into force here also Mr. B. E. Crawford refereed the games in a very satisfactory manner, much credit is due him for the able manner he handled the whistle in the Senior contest, but in order to use the four personal foul rule successfully the score keeper has to co-operate with the referee and call his attention to the player who has made four such fouls. Elks: Craggs, Williscroft, Robertson, Lee, Greenwell, and Cody. Smelter: S. Stewart, Brown, Sheen, Simons and Benny Fitzpatrick. B. E. Crawford refereed all games, MONDAY NIGHT Tuxis Boys vs. Pats In what proved to be one of the best games in the Intermediate League this season was when the Tuxis boys defeated the fast Coke Plant quintette by 28 to 27 at the Gym. on Monday evening.
