No season, no lestival compares with, nor has made a deeper impression upon our minds and heart, than Christinas with all iis joys. Throughout the yeai we may lor get the nhl home and even lorget the days ol nur youth. Yet, when Christmas comes it brings back nld recollections and associations, which will never lade limn oui memories. As i,on is drawn towards llie magnet, so does the nhl home and the old Iriends lar awaj draw us at this season ol Christinastide, Happy are Ihej who can turn homeward on that day, and affectionately embrace luml mother and lather, sist, r or brothel and loving Iriends, Blessed are those whose hearts beat warm on Christinas, and who love to see all round them happj and merry, Blessed are they who nol null love to see smiling fliers and joyous hearts, but who also know Imu to make their neighbors con tented and cheerful, The best and greatest nl nil the gills given to mankind is the heart full of love, This is wealth which none ran give or lake from us. How asuieless is the influence ol sm Im heart, li makes everything around happy, us il the angels have come again singing •■ Goon Wn i Towards Mi v" ALL ABOARD FOR THE THE YOKON The question of transportation hv rail is the all-absorbing topic ol the luuir in ilns province, Without In tta i means lor travel and traffic the gnat fertile valleys and prolific terraces, oi benches, which abound throughout British Co liitnbia. would remain in thell virgin state. To average citizens that dwell heir on ilm Coast, the interioi ol ibis province is as little known as lhe Antarctic regions, lli,' business men, loo, show as little regard or aptitude Im tlie development ol the interior as they did foi the outfitting ol parlies to the north in the Klondike stampede in 1897, I'lie. sil down, play whist nr idle awaj their time, and wait lor prospectors or railroad promoters to file into their offices or corridors ol hotels, to siinw nun; wares, and explain their scheni s, or proffer advice in respect to lhe possibilities ol the interior. The pioneers remember the strenuous times when the building nl tin Canadian Pacific Railway went through, But the road was built, nevertheless. However, the southern portion ol this province dors not include lhe whole arm ol undeveloped British Columbia. Not by any means, There is the greal interior to th 1 north of Hurrard inlet -sections as prolific in agriculture nnd stock-raising as the beautiful Okanagan, and as rich in mineral as any mining country in the world, This marvelous territory is neglected Inr the tt IM nl \ RAM ROAD. These sn lions are Cariboo and its adjacent territory to the north ; the Cliilcotin, with the mosl pi rfeel stock-raising district in tins province! lhe Lill it and Pembi 1 inn Meadows.

(i. Macpherson, M, I'., snid Bome time ago that " ns all mails lead lo Rome, so all roads building today in this province will be tributary to Burrard inlet," and Iroin North Vancouver all British Columbia roads must eventually lead. I UK V. W. & V. will open up thc fertile Squamish Valley, at the bead ol Howe sound. To reach ibis point the proposed road will run from the Second narrows, along the shore line ol the inlet, via Point Atkinson, the si south-westerly point nl ilm municipality. From Point Atkinson to the Squamish the land is heavily timbered in places ami nl mineral formation in other parts, as evidenced by the Britannia group nl mines, which is nne ul the richest mining properties in ibe district. Around Green hike there is a considerable area ol meadow laud ns well as timber, null \ I M II 1. aimul n.i cms, is gonil meadow land suitable Iiii settlement On Green river, liieveii-mile i nek. there are splendid waler powers that iiia\ he developed. The Pemberton Meadows hnve an area ol .pi.iinn acres practically the whole nl which is suitable for agriculture, Stock is abb- to run oul the whole year round, To sum up, the section ol country between Nortli Vancouver and Lillooet, and adjoining valleys, will furnish, conservatively estimated, at least 20,000 acres ol agricultural land, besides large tracts ol timber now held bj private parlies, Greta Valley, Pemberton Meadows, Clear Creek ami Anderson Creek valleys, llllll I llaa.iailil ICRI S of agricultural land, As a mineral territory tin prospects are very encouraging, but undeveloped.
