Anyox Celebrates St. Patrick's Day With Big Dance The 17th. of 'Aukl Ireland was celebrated in 'illigent style on Wednesday evening, when a dance was at the Becreation Hall. The dance as in former years was sponsored by the ladies of the Catholic Church and everything was on a par to the usual high standard of previous events. The attendance on Wednesday was unusually large, and the merry, happy-go-lucky temperament of the sous of Ireland was much in evidence. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and at two a. m. many were loth to leave the gay assemblage. The Hall was beautifully decorated, the fresh emerald green, being the favorite color, and great credit, is due to T. P. Ryan and J. Hill foi' the artistic arrangements. Pynii's celebrated orchestra supplied the musio, and the many old time selections rendered brought back a flood of memories of life in the old land. Forgotton were the stiff joints of the old stagers as they gambolled around the floor (. outshining some of tho younger 1 set in agility and mirth making. A very nice supper, which reflects great credit on'the ladies, was supplied at 11 p.m. and the dainty refreshments were much appreciated. Mrs. A. Morton was the convenor of the dance committee and she was assisted by Mrs. J. Weir, Mrs. C. Buckhaber, Mrs, M. Loftus, Miss P. O'Neill and Miss Calahan. To the above ladies great credit is due for the splendid success of the evening, and the only regret of 1 those present was that the celebra- Ition of the birthday of Ireland's [Patron Saint only comes once a 1-year.

Middle School System Favored by Speakers at P. T. A. Meeeing The regular monthly meeting of the Anyox Parents-Teachers Association was held in the Public School, on Tuesday March 16th. at 7.30 p.m. The meeting was well represented, and very interesting discussions took place on "The Middle School" as advocated by the Comniisioners, Messrs. Putman and Weir in their survey of B. C school system. Mr. It. Manzer opened the discussion by giving a general idea of the "middle school," its purposes and subjects as embraced by the report. Mr. B. Thorsteinsson followed by giving a talk on adjustments of middle school pupils to a High School course, on entering that institution. Mr. J7 Mitchell contributed to that discussion bjr an interesting talk showing how the introduction of the middle school in rural districts wou!'' lot involve a great expense. Mr. R. 0.'Cutler then followed by a further discussion as to how this system could be worked in urban districts with a comparative financial gain. Mr. H. C. Frazer Inspector of schools concluded by giving an interesting summary, he drew a comparison showing a relationship between the present system and that of the one discussed, he expressed himself as did the other speakers as being very favorable to the introduction of the middle school. D. V. Railway Will be Repaired by Govt. The repairing of the Dolly Var den railway by the Homestake Mining Co. who will again operate the Toric mine this summer, was commenced on Saturday. On Wednesday word was received from Victoria that the Public Works Department would undertake repair wor.k. A government crew under the supervision of J. Wells commenced work on Friday morning and it is expected that the railway will be repaired to Camp 8 by the end of April. The fact that the Public Works Department have decided to repair the railway, as has been formerly done, was hailed with great satisfaction looally. It was felt that as the government were, pledged to reimburse the Homestake Co. that there was no reason why the work should not be done under govern ment supervision, especially as the equipment used in former years was lying idle. The work will now be under the supervision of J. Wells, who is ripe in experience of repair work on the railway. This will allow the Homestake Co. to concentrate their energies on the Toric, and at the same time the present arrangement is more satisfactory to the people of the town.

E. MOSS, Editor and Publisher. An enormous amount of money is invested by the people of the province each year in numerous ventures. A large share of this money is obtained from people of moderate means, who can ill afford to lose it, but very often poor judgement is used and their hard earned savings are lost. Too many people exist today by using their wits. Often they are unscrupulous, and would rob a baby of its milk bottle in order to provide funds for their questionable promotions. British Columbia and the State of Pensyl- vania are credited with being the two easiest places on the North American continent to obtain money for new enterprises. It is well known that is is impossible to, become wealthy by saving a part of your everyday wages, in order to accumulate wealth it is necessary to invest. It is also necessary to invest wisely. Keep clear of the high-powered, glib-tongued experienced stock salesman, who promises you anything from 50 per cent up on your investment, or your money will be only a pleasant memory. It is well known that a fashionable dressed stranger can blow into a town, and sell stock in an enterprise of which you know nothing about, and a local man who wishes to raise money on a legitimate enterprize would starve, For those who wish to invest, British Columbia has many legitimate projects, and for sound investments this district can not be equaled in British Columbia. Alice Arm has one of the richest mineral areas in the province. Development work of the past few years, conclusively proving this statement. By investing your money in an Alice Arm enterprise, you possess an extremely good chance of considerably increasing your wealth, you know where your money is going and you know the men who are handling it. Contrary to prevailing opinion, mining is not a hazardous venture. Recent statistics prove that more commercial enterprises are failures than mining. Extraction of mineral wealth from Butte Has 2700 Miles of Underground Workings In round figures, the maximum annual production of the Butte district is 300,000,000 pounds of copper, 175,000,000 pounds of zinc, 12- 000,000 pounds of lead, 12,000,000 ounces of silver and 60,000 ounces of gold. An idea of the magnitude of the operations is conveyed by the fact that while Butte has on the surface 253 miles of street, her underground workings aggregate 2700 miles, The annual output of the Butte district in metallic copper, zinc lead, silver and gold would fill 4569 33-foot railroad cars, making a train 28^ miles long. Yet this is only 3 per cent of the total amount of ore which has to be mined and treated to produce the above amount of metal. The value of the output varies from $65,000,- 000 to $100,000,000, depending upon market prices of the metals. More than 2,000,000 a month is paid to Butte's 20,000 wage-earners about the largest payroll in the country for a city of its size. Production to date from the Butte district includes: 1—More copper and more silver than any other country in the world. 2—One-third of all the copper mined in the United States. 3—One-sixth of all the copper mined in the world. In all more than two billion dollars mineral wealth, of which one and a half billion has been left here in the form of wages, freight and supplies. More than one hundred shafts pierce the hill, from which 15,000 miners wrest 20,000 tons of ore a day. Some of these shafts are more than 3600 feet deep. H. M.

ALICE AEM AND ANYOX HERALD; Saturday, Maroh 20, 1926 Late W. G. Trethewey Was Inventor and Mine Owner Mr. W. G. Trethewey, who passed away recently at Sarasota, Florida, was a pioneer of New Westminster and was well known throughout the province. He arrived at the Royal City in 1882 with bis parents from Muskoka, Out. In mining circles he was known throughout Canada as the disooverer of the Trethewey and the Coniagas mines at Cobalt, Out. two of the richest mines in the camp. His interests were riot confined to mining. He was the owner of Trethewoy's Model Farm at Weston, near Soronto, and in 1912 he purchased a large estate known as Hoi insteadI Place in Sussex, England, where he resided until 1924. Part of his fortune was derived from an air brake coupling which he invented and sold to the Westinghouse Company. The proceeds of this sale enabled Mr. Trethewey to develop the Cobalt properties, from which the mass of his wealth was derived. Gold From Laurentic Being Recovered Twenty-five million dollars worth of gold has been reoovered from the steamship Laurentic, which was sunk off the coast of Ireland in 1917. The oost of the work, whioh has been going on since 1917 I has been considerably less than $700,000: Demand for Rubber Still Increasing The demand for rubber is increasing at the rate of fifty or sixty thousand tons annually, a British report shows, and restrictions or no restrictions, the supply will scarcely be able to keep up with jthe demands which are now in sight. When the European count- Iries recouperfrom their depression I the demand will increase again. Ontario Has Relic of Slave Days Mount Salem, East Elgin, Ontario, has a quaint old oharacter iu Lloyd Graves, who celebrated his hundred and second birthday afew days ago.

He still acts as caretaker of the Mount Salem school. Red Lake the new mining district in Ontario, is to be the soene ofthe greatest gold rush since Yukon, it is said in mining ciroles. The honeymoon is over when he can carry a cigar in the vest pocket without being broken. "Who was the flrst man?" asked the visiting minister. "Adam," the children answered in chorus, "Who was the flrst woman?" "Eve," they all shouted. "Who was the meekest man?" "Moses," '•Who was the meekest woman?" Every one was silent.

Help the Organization that Serves You Dominion Government Hopes to Again Reduce Taxes Hon. James Robb, minister of finance told a delegation representing the retail trade bureau of Can ada recently that the government hoped to make reductions in the income tax as finances permitted . The delegation asked that the present Domiiiioii'tax be abolished on the ground that it is only conlis eating capital required to extend our industries but that it is frightening capital out of industry and preventing new investments being made.
