L, foregathered at the Elks'"Dugout" ostensibly for the purpose of a housewarming for their new quarters, recently opened, but in reality to do honor to their departing comrade, H. B. Porteous who is leaving the district. A pleasing program of songs aud music bad been arranged, vocal items being given by W. F. Eve, R. Lavery, Tom Pinckney and J. Varnes, while the musical turns were attended to by the Legion Orchestra. At a suitable interval in the proceedings the president, Wm. F.

Government Men Issue Golf Challenge Four members of tho Provincial Government staff at Anyox have issued a challenge to a similar number of employees of the Granby Company for a golf match. There is no doubt but that the challenge will he acoepted.

McRae Work on Kitsault River Wing Dam Closes Down As an expression of esteem and appreciation of her untiring work during the training and preparations for the recent "Sunrise'" Cabaret, the ladies of the "New York Follies" who took so successful a part, have presented Mrs. V. S. McRae with a silver sandwich plate. The work of lengthening and strengthening the wing dam above the town of Alice Arm, which was undertaken by the Department ol Publio Works to relieve unemployment in this district, was concluded last week-end. The work occupied three months and an average' of 11 men were employed. The dam has been extended a distance of 500 feet, and the weak spots have been strengthened at all points. It is considered that the dam is now perfectly safe at all points to resist any pressure of water when the Kitsault River is in flood. A small crew of men are now engaged in straightening' out the course of the river above the big suspension bridge. During the high water periods last fall, a gravel bar of considerable propor tions formed in the centre of the stream. A drag line is now en gaged in lowering the bed of the river ou the east side, and unless unforseen circumstances happen the river will cut a wide and deeper channel here during high water and convert the bed of the stream into a straight line. At the present time the main stream strikes the dam head-on, but the present operations will divert a lot of water to the centre of the channel McColl's Team Head of Golf Tournament Following an enjoyable evening at oards a party of Anyox friends of Mr. H. B. Porteous presented him with a fine leather club bag this week. Mr. Ed. Blundell made the presentation. The Elks' Miniature Golf Lsague is going strong. McColl's team is at present in the lead, but MoCon nachiu's and Machine Shop both have a good chance of coming out on top. Mack Tornquist and Arvid Luudstrom were each fined $25 and costs or thirty days, on Feb ruary 23 on a charge of vagrancy, breaking doors.

While not of very great size, it will no doubt be large enough toaccommodatethe congregation for a few years. It stands in the residential section of the town on the corner of Victoria Street and Second Avenue, and is an ideal location. Mrs. J. Thomas with her son John and niece Katherine left Alice Arm on Monday for Anyox where their joined Mr. Thomas, who has spent the past few months at the Mine. Mr. Thomas was proprietor of the Sunset Hotel which was destroyed in the big fire at Alioe Arm last summer. Bar silver was quoted at 27 cents an ounce on the New York market on Monday. Exciting Basketball On Monday A very exciting game was played in the Gym on Monday between the Sheiks and Micos in the second of the playoff series. Right from the start it was a ding-dong battle, both sides having a tally of fourteen points at the interval. In'the first half Dwyer made use of his height to score 13 of the Micos points, while Dresser and J. Gillies bagged most for tbe Sheiks. Iu the second half the Sheiks made several changes and the game continued to be very hotly contested. In spite of the Micos losing two of their men ou account of excess fouls, their substitutes carried on to help the Micos win by four points. Scores: Sheiks. Dresser 8. J. Gillies-12, L.

B, MOSS, Editor and Publisher, The possibility of higher prices for silver is slowly improving. The world is now commencing to realize that sooner or later silver must be called upon to assist gold in carrying the financial burdens of the world. The shortage of gold is becoming more acute each year, and as the wealth and population of the world increases, the demand for gold will become greater. It has been shown by several economists that a world shortage of gold inevitably leads to falling prices, such as we are witnessing today. There are no known large deposits of gold existing that can supply the present deficiency. That being the case, the financiers of the world will be forced to adopt bimetallism. There seems to be no alternative. The adoption of bimetallism would not probably solve all of the world's troubles, but it would greatly assist as a stabilizing influence and the great trade depressions, one of which we are now experiencing would be considerably minimized. Bimetallism would of course, mean a standard market price for silver, and this would automatically eliminate China's present financial difficulties, and allow her 400,000,000 population to trade with the rest of the world. Brief Items Provincial Activities A promising' discovery of lead- zinc-silver has been made north of Port Hardy, Vancouver Island. Grain shipments through Vancouver to a recent date totalled 36,545,443 bushels as against 18, 679,810 bushels for the same period a year ago. Did you ever visualize the fact that more fortunes have been made in modern times by advertising than any other means? Perhaps you have never realized it, but it is nevertheless true. Constant advertising alone has been the result of the tremendous sales of nationally known goods. The manufacturers of these goods have learned by experience that as soon as advertising is curtailed the demand for their goods decreases in proportion, To those who have anything to sell even in small towns such as Anyox and Alice Arm, advertising is just as essential to them as the big manufacturer. Whether you have merchandisp to sell, fire or life insurance, a meal, a ticket lo a picture show, dance or concert, a game of pool, or whatever it is, then don't be afraid lo advertise it in your local paper. Some figures taken to January I st of this year seem rather at variance with a period of depression. The number of motor cars registered in the province to January 31, 1931 was 62,119 as against 58,522 for the same period a year ago, an increase of 3,597. The number of telephones this year is 126,25.1 as against 122,359 for the previous year, an increase of 3,892. In the number of telephones to population British Columbia bus an easy lead over all the other provinces. During 1930, in Greater Vancouver 27 new manufacturing establishments began operations with an estimated payroll of over $300, 000, and 36 established factories invested over $1,500,000 in new buildings and plant expansion. There are about 1600 manufacturing plants in Vancouver. last year the volume of business on the whole was below that of 1929, with an average about equalling that of 1928. Following the success of fur- farming, an attempt is now being made to promote "fish farming" in British Columbia. An undertaking is under way to obtain from the Provincial Government the lease of a small lake for the purpose of stocking it with whitefish, lake trout or other commercial species, which in three or four years could be taken out to supply the market with fresh water fish. Advertising shows that you are alert, and anxious for business, and there is just as much advantage for you in advertising your small business in a small paper as the big business who spends millions of dollars on advertising. There is no surer way of your message reaching the public than by advertising. If you have anything to sell, try an advertisement in the Herald, and you will probably be surprised at the results obtained from the small investment. 3C3C3C 3C30IZ3CDC: -ir==ir Candies, Stationery, Proprietary Medicines, Toilet Articles, Etc.

The programmes will be chronological in character and each will be representative of music written between the 17th, century and the present. They will begin with works or part of works by Bach, Handel, Haydn or Mozart, continue with Beethoven or Brahms, then go on to Wagner or Tschaikowsky, and conclude with tne moderns, English composers will be prominent in the concerts, including such moderns as Elgar, Hoist and Vaughan Williams, while an early English Tudor composer will also be heard.

MacKay, senior dairy produce grader tor Western Canada, states that Manitoba's creamery butter production In 1930 showed an Increase of 84.6 per cent, over 1921. About 10.000,000 pounds of fish are caught annually in the large and small lakes of the province of Saskatchewan and approximately* 1.400 men are employed In the industry. Aggregate value of field crops grown in Canada in 1930 Is officially estimated at $631,592,000 and total area sown to crops was 62,- 214,670 acres, an increase over 1929 of about 1,000,000 acres. In a final estimate of the wheat production of Canada in 1930, the Canadian Government Buraau of Statistics places the total yield at 397,872,000 bushels, an increase of over 2,000,000 bushels compared with the previous estimate. From end of September 1930 to January 15, 1931, over 26,000,000 pounds of sugar was produced at the beet sugar factory at Raymond, Alberta. The industry has grown to substantial proportions in that province of late years.

The reference Is to the Canadian Pacific radio offering on Monday nights across the Dominion. g. Vancouver will have a team ot "ine golfing calibre on the fairways of the Oak Bay course where the third annual mid-winter Empress golf tournament for the E. W. Beatty trophy will be staged February 23-28. Entries are in from Victoria, Seattle, Portland, Tacoma and cities of the prairie provinces. Grain marketed along the western lines of the Canadian Pacific Railway from August 1 to January 31 amounted to 165,793,000 bushels of which 140,928,000 bushels were wheat. The total marketings of grain along Canadian Pacific lines represent 54 per cent, of the total grain marketed In western Canada to that date. Canada now has more than forty bird sanctuaries specially reserved for bird protection purposes. These are scattered across the country from Nova Scotia to British Columbia. Some of the provincial governments also maintain similar reserved areas for the benefit of native btrd life. A census of ten such sanctuaries, not Including young birds hatched ln 1930, was 100,836 of 16 different species. Over 97 per cent of the assets ot the Canadian Pacific Railway ar* in Canada, and in drawing attention to this fact some months ago, Mr. E. W. Beatty, Chairman and President of the Company, went on to say that he would be glad to see an Increase in the Company's shareholders ln this country. Since that time the increase has been moat marked, as Is shown by the following statement of Canadian Pacific common shares held in Canada now and at the end of the two previous years:— Dec. 31, 1928 69,719 Dec. 31 1929 77,848 Dec. 31. 1930 91,399 Increase In two years.... 36,231 Newsy Items Concerning Canadian Progress Interesting items culled from Canadian sources by the Canadian National Railways Agricultural Department: Canada has about one-sixteenth of the known coal resources of the world. Canada's average yield in potatoes last year was 142 bushels per acre, the total yield being nearly 82,000,000 bushels. Fruit and vegetable canning factories in Canada now total about 300, with an annual production valued at about $40,000,000. Canada has some three billions of dollars invested in her transportation systems, including railway and steamship lines, another two billions in motor highways, and a billion in hotels. One of the large honey producers of Western Canada is Duncan Chalmers, who lives near Edmonton, Alberta. Last year he produced 8000 lbs., of honey from 56 colonies of bees, which had a value of $1500. Mr. Chalmers also had a net revenue of $600 from his poultry. He carried 300 white leghorns, which means a net revenue of $2 per hen. Vancouver, B.C., Feb. 28.

For Results, Advertise in the Herald Can you Imagine a bewildered Chinaman trying to total a laundry list of 33,117,314 plecss ? But there is one like that. It is the total of washing done by and for the Canadian Pacific Railway Company In 1930, In Canada, including hotels and bungalow - camps; sleeping and dining car service, (which also operates station restaurants), and the British Columbia Coast boat service. If one stopped to sit down and figure out the gallons of water and bars of soap required for these operations, the results might be even more astounding. Tho hotel, department owns 789,821 pieces of linen; tho dining and sleeping car, service some 1,500,000 and the British Columbia steamships another, 247,000, making a grand total of, 2,536,821 pieces. These include all "flat-pieces", such as table - cloths, sheets, napkins, towels, pillow-cases, etc; the white coats worn by the company's servants ln the various departments, and, in the hotels, a certain amount of laundry, done for guests. In the hotels, too, blankets, bed-spreads, rugs, and so forth must be considered. Every piece of laundry handled becomes a laundry-piece each time It appears in the wash. Thus a single table-napkin may be a laundry-piece over and over again, according to the supply of linen needed and available. The picture shows a battery of washing machines In the laundry of the Royal York Hotel, Toronto, the largest hotel in the British Empire. Similar equipment ln the great chain of Canadian Pacific Railway hotels throughout Canada handles the great laundry list in various centres, with the assistance, in certain districts, of laundries outside the company's service.
