Discovery of Gold Ore Made at Toric Mine <t The most sensational ore discovery made in tlie Alice Arm district since the hectic days of the Dolly Varden was made a few days ago when gold ore was encountered in the Toric mine. Samples of the ore have been brought to town, and the gold is coarse enough to be plainly seen wi^'i tho naked eye. In addition to the gold values the ore carries native and argentite silver, which is also plainly dis- cernable. This gold ore was encountered in the hanging wall section of the big ore ledge, and its discovery was a surprise to many, who had not considered it probable that gold would lie encountered in the Toric, this conclusion evidently been drawn from the fact that tlie Dolly Varden ores did not carry gold values. Mr. Gerhardi, general manager, is very reticent regarding publicity of ore values from thr Toric, but it is plain, even to those who do not follow mining, that the Toric is a mine of vast possibilties, as the ore is rich enough to leave no doubt in that respect, and all those who have been underground cau see for themselves the size of the ore body. The discovery of gold ore in the Toric brings out the fact that what Alice Arm needs is greater development. What has been found at the Toric may be duplicated in a dozen instances when development work'is increased. . .The new dining room has been completed, and the excavation for the first floor of the concentrating ,*piill is now finished. The concrete buttments for the retaining wall will be commenced this week. Presentation Made to Dr. P. Whelan at Toric Mine A very pleasant ceremony was ,N performed at the Toric mine last ,! Sunday, when A. C. H. Gerhardi, managing director of the Home- stake Mining Co., presented Dr. P. Whelan of Anyox with a praotict- ioners oase. In making the presentation on behalf of the employees of the Toric mine, Mr. Gerhardi said that they all appreciated the many acts of kindness rendered by the ! Dootor during his residence in the 1 district, and to show their appreciation they were presenting him with something they trusted would be useful to him in the future. Dr. Whelan was too much surprised by the unexpected gift to reply at any length, but said that although he was shortly leaving for Seattle, he would always have pleasant memories of Alice Arm, and promised to some day return and renew the many friendships he had made during his stay at Anyox. Dr. R. Kinsman, aocompanied Dr. Whelan to the Toric mine, where they inspected both the underground aud outside workings. The presentation was made after a sumptuous dinner had been partaken of, and the return trip was made to Alice Arm during the afternoon. Anyox Baseball and Football Another prime in the Commercial League was decided on Sunday evening last, when the Club House aggregation of scintilating stars, nosed out the Coke Plant Tar Babies by the narrow margin of one run. The final score standing eight runs to seven. Larson was on the mound for the winners, with "Wasp" Davies on tlie receiving end. The Tar Babies started off with a rush in the first stanza, gathering in live runs, they added another iu the second frame and one in tne third. "Benzol" "Jones seemed to have lots of kick in the old soup bone, although tilings looked oad for him at the start, when, "Our Boarding House" landed on him for three hits in a row, which counted for one tally. He tightened up, however, and pitched air tight ball until the fatal seventh. "Iodine" Hill" again demonstrated his prowess with the stick, when he sent one over the creek for four sacks, in the third inning. The Tar Babies cracked wide open in the lucky seventh and allowed six runs-to trickle accross the rubber. Archie Smith and George Bailey were tlie umpires. The Elks defeated the Smelter on Tuesday evening by the score of six runs to one. Cecil Ferguson on the mound for the winners, was in fine form allowing only one lone bingle in the seven innings. Ross was nicked for six safeties. Jack Cody was the star with the hat, getting a long clout to deep centre with two men on the path.' SUMMARY: Runs Hits Errors Elks 6 6 7 Smelter 11 5 Umpires Ployart and Mcintosh. The Beach football eleven were vie-. toric ms over the Mine on Monday evening, five goals to one. The Mine made a valiant attempt to stave off defeat, with only nine men available for play they held their opponents on even terms for the first half and fifteen minutes of the second. Hunter and Jacques were the stars for the losers. The former being a veritable stonewall at fullback. Evans notched the lone tally for the Mine. Elliscm 2, O'Donnell 2, Craggs 1, were the scorers for the Beich. Evans was the referee. The Beach turned in another win on Thursday evening, and climbed on even terms with the Mine in the league table, the victims were the Smelter eleven. The score was two goals to nil. Ellison and Robinson scored the goals. Both sides missed a penalty shot. A draw for the Mine in their next game will cinch for them the second half of the schedule and the right to meet the Smelter in the play-off series. A loss, however, will put them in a tie with the Beach for top honors, The dance given by the Anyox Mine Club at tho Alice Arm Hotel on Saturday, the 25th..was a very successful affair. The Mine Club Melodians were in excellent form, and the large throng of Anyox and Alice Arm dancers enjoyed every minute of the evening. Granby Co. Suspends Work on Standard Property The Granby Co., who have a bond on the Standard suspended work on that property last weekend, and brought all equipment to town. While the close-down was disappointing to many it was realized that the Granby Co. are at the present time incurring a heavy expense at their Copper Mountain property. When this plant is operating and making a profit, there is no doubt the Granby Co. will again enter the Alice Arm field. At the present time the Granby Co. are not developing any new property in British Columbia except Copper Mountain. Miss Mary Cane returned from her vacation on Friday. Annual Picnic Held For Alice Arm Sunday School The annual picnic of the Alice Arm Anglican Church Sunday Sohool was held at Campers Point, last Saturday the 25th. The weather was ideal and practically the entire juvenile population of Alice Arm and Silver City were there, the adults were also present iu large numbers. The numbers were augmented by the Anyox visitors who were invited to join in the merriment. As in former years, Rev. Rushbrook transported everyone to the scene of festivities in the Mission boat, "Northern Cross." There was abundance of good things to eat, which was supplied by the ladies, and fifteen gallons of ice cream was on hand to cool the energetic youngsters. Swimming was indulged in during the afternoon, and races were also held. The winners of the races were: Girls 8 and under, Juanita Falconer. Girls 10 aud under, Miss Bare- ley. ' Girls 14 and under, Olive Selfe. Boys 6 and under, Jerry O'Connor. Boys 8 and under, Master Barclay, j Boys 10 and under, Gordon Anderson. Ladies, (long hair) Mrs. B. Slielton. Ladies, (bobbed l.nir) Mrs. Gregg Thompson. Men's race, open. Marshall Smith. The day's happiness ended with another sumptuous repast, and at its conclusion all were ready for home. The success of the day's outing was due to a large extent to Mrs. T. W. Falconer and Rev. Rush^ brook, to whom fell the major portion of the work. Also to Mrs. J. Wheatley and Miss B. Crawford who kindly canvassed for funds, and to Mr. J. A. Anderson for clearing the grounds and assisting in many ways. The sum of $55.00 was collected towards expenses, and when all accounts had been paid a balance of 5 cents was on hand. Alice Arm Sends Ore Display to Vancouver The formation of an Alice Arm branch of the B. C. Chamber of Mines made it possible to send an ore display to the Vancouuer Exhibition which will be held from August 8th, to 15th.. At the conclusion of the exhibition this ore display will be transferred to the Chamber of Mines, Although the time was short in whioh to gather a display, nineteen properties were represented, and included in the display was silver, oopper, lead, zinc and tungsten ores. Among the display were some magnificent specimens of silver ore. Mining property owners are still requested to being in samples from their properties, as later another shipment will be made to the Chamber of Mines. It is hoped that good ore samples will be brought in from every mining property in the district, so that a worth while display can be always on hand at the Chamber of Mines. Bring in your ore and the Alioe Arm branch will see that it is shipped. It is the cheapest and most effective advertising proour- able. Anyox Moose Smoker Was Big Affair On Friday night July 31st. the Loyal Order of Moose held the most entertaining Smoker at the Catholic Hall that has been held in Anyox for some time. Bro. T.

Well Known Anyox Couple Wed at Hospital A very pretty wedding was solemnized at the Nurses' Home at the Anyox Hospital on Friday evening, when Miss Winter, late matron of the Hospital, became the bride of Mr. Ed. Yard, also of Anyox. The officiating clergyman was Rev. J. S. Brayfield. The Dining Room and hallway were beautifully decorated with cut flowers and various colored flags which gave a very pleasing appearance. Mr. B. Hutchison supported the groom, and Dr. P. Whelan gave the bride away. At the conclusion of the ceremony Miss Carr gave a selection on the piano, "Here comes the Bride." Mr. Yard in a few chosen words thanked Dr. and Mrs. Whelan, Dr. and Mrs. Learoyd and the nurses of the hospital for their kindness in making the event such a happy one. Following the ceremony supper was served, and the health and happiness of the bride and groom were toasted with enthusiasm. The guests included Dr. and Mrs. P. Whelan, Dr. and Mrs. D. R. Learoyd.

New Anyox Heating System Completed Another long section of the steam pipe line has just been completed at Anyox. Last year a 6 in. main pipe was constructed as far as the main fuel oil tank from number 2 power plant. This year another 1,800 feet have been added to it, making a total length of 3,- 300 feet, or over half a mile from number 2 power house to the central heating station under the General Office. This line has been built according to the most modern engineering practice and will be a considerable factor in the saving of fuel, as well as being very economic in operating costs. Steam is oarried in the main pipe at a pressure of 40 to 100 lbs., according to the demand, and reduced in each building to a low pressure. All the condensed steam is returned to a sub-station and automatically pumped back to. the boilers in the number 2 power house. The construction above the ground is a very neat piece of work, and built to withstand the severe climate of this northern country. The successful building of this line was carried out by F. C. Morrow, under contract with the Granby Co. O. B. Osborn, manager of the Drygoods Department, General Store, accompanied by Mrs. Osborn, were passengers for Vancouver on Saturday. After a short stay there Mrs. Osborn will visit her parents at Yorkton, Sask. Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Gray and family returned home yesterday from a visit to Alice Arm, where Mr. Gray has been developing the Eureka property.

Contract Rates on Application. E. MOSS, Editor and Publisher; The newly organized Alice Arm branch of the B. C. Chamber of Mines has already got into harness. During last week, ore samples were packed and despatched to the Vancouver Exhibition; and these will later form part of a permanent display at the B. C. Chamber of Mines. Some of our citizens are commencing to howl about the quiet times, and wondering why two or three million dollar concerns doivt come in and scatter their wealth around developing our rich ore resouces. To these we would say, have you done your part in encouraging mining companies to come in? Have you asked any mining property owner to bring in ore samples? Have you brought any in yourself, or did you go around and enquire if you could be of any assistance in packing the samples already sent out? Do you belong to any organization working for the welfare of the town, and if so, do you attend the meetings and do your utmost to help the officers in their work? Some of these calamity howlers expect some one else to do all the work, but when a few dollars are being circulated they are there with both hands and feet, eager to get their share of the fruits of the labor of the more enterprising citizens. Although Anyox is a good place to work, chiefly on account of the permanency of employment, and the regularity of the pay cheque, it must be admitted that the atmosphere at times reminds one of the abode of his Satanic majesty. To those who occasionally delight in a lung full of fresh air and wish to gaze on the green grass, trees and flowers of this beautiful north, we say take a trip to Alice Arm and enjoy to the fullest extent the benevolence of Mother Nature. Beautifully situated in a bowl in the mountains Alice Arm is one of the picture spots of the north. Excellent fishing, boating and hiking facilities are available, A holiday spent in John Conway, Anyox Government Agent Transferred John Conway, who has held the position of government agent at Anyox for nearly five years, has been transferred to the larger district of Cumberland. He is succeeded by It. M. McGusty, who before coming to Anyox has held the position of government agent at Williams Lake. John Conway is one of the real old timers of the north, having spent 21 years in the north coast section of the province. He was deputy mining recorder at Stewart during 1904-5-6. Leaving there he saw service in the government offices at Port Simpson and Prince Rupert. He returned to Stewart as government agent in 1910. He was later appointed assistant government agent at Prince Rupert and came to Anyox in the fall of 1920. His friends in the north are numbered among men in all stations of life and all will wisli him tlie best of good luck in his new field. Higher Percentage of Marks Obtained by Entrance Examination Pupils This Year Following are the names of the pupils of the Anyox and Alice Arm schools who successfully passed their examination for entrance to high school.

Mining In Atlin District Receiving Considerable Attention Engineer Gold Mines, Ltd. Inc., which operates the remarkable Engineer mine on Taku Arm, in the Atlin distriot. has optioned two miles of placer ground along Pine Creek nearby. Machinery for hydraulic operations is being installed. The deep-level tunnel at the Engineer mine has cut the "E" vein 1.200 feet from its portal and 90 feet below the bottom level of the old workings. Five other veins, all showing gold, were cut in driving the tunnel. Driving of the "E" vein at depth is said to be developing the same high grade of ore that lias been found in the upper workings. The company has installed a 50- ton mill and a hydro-electric plant, and it is expected that the output of this mill during this season materially will increase the gold production. O. B. Smith and associates have a crew developing the Gleaner group adjoining the Engineer property on the north, which is said to contain the extension of the Engineer veins. Atlin Silver-Lead Mines, which made important additions to its plant last fall, has secured additional capital and has mapped out a comprehensive campaign of development for the present season. Thus there is a marked revival of mining in the Atlin district. Anyox Band Gives Open Air Concert On Saturday evening in honour of the distinguished visitors 'sojourning here for a few days, the Anyox Band gave a splendid concert under the able conductorship of J.
