Awrey, the Man. ager of the Loan Department of the Sun Life Assurance Company, in British Columbia, and the Trustee for the Debenture Holders of this City,'has just returned to Vancouver from Toronto, to which City he had been called by his Company. ' He has been appointed Manager of the loans made and to be made in Ontario by the Sun Life Assurance Company, and will very shortly leave Vancouver to assume his new duties. The officials and" citizens of Greenwood regret \ Mr. Awrey's severance from his Trusteeship, but are greatly pleased at his advancement to a much higher and more responsible position with his Company, with increased emoluments. Mr. D. D. Munro will succeed to Mr. Awrey's present position with the Sun Life, and to the office of Trustee for the City's Debenture Holders; and we have uo doubt but that he will carry out the policy inaugerated by Mr. Awrey. From his name we should assume Mr. Munro to be, like Alderman Kerr, a 'product of Scotland'. His father came from Edinboro Town, but the son was born in Glengarry, believed to be a County in Ontario. Whilst Mr. Awrey is leaving this Province, he assures us that he will ever retain the kindliest remembrance and friendly interest in Greenwood; whose people wish him ever success in his new office in his native Province, he having been born in the shadow of The Mountain, at HaMlton. N City Council The Council met on Monday evening in the City Office with Mayor Gulley presiding. - Correspondence from various municipalities and from Premier Oliver was read regarding the '���Town Planning Bill" presented to the Legislature at fthe last session7-but as the Greenwood Council had expressed their views last year it was decided not to take any further participation in the matter. 7 ; .-''"''��� .: Approval was given'to the representations' made by the water committee to the Water :Rtghts Branch of the.

Bobby Leach Would Go Over Niagara Falls.In a Rubber Ball .Bobby Leach,- who went over the Horse Shoe Falls in a steel barrel on July 25, 1011, .has announced that he is.negotiating with a rubber company for' the manufacture of a rubber ball in which he plans to mako a trip over the falls early, next June.

Passports are unnecessary for British people entering Canada'and continuance of the British formality against Canadians is considered unfair. The recent increase iu the price for passports, from two to flvo dollars each, adds force to the movement and it is expected that the present regulation will be rescinded immediately.

Dr. Bissky. informed the writer that he has examined.with his invention hundreds of. criminals in Kieff and Warsaw prisons. Although the doctor had never seen his subjects before, he could state, after a few seconds of examination, that: "No. 1 is a murderer; No. 2 is wrongly accused of murder; No. 3 is a hardened thief; No. 5''is a violent political agitator; No:' 5 is innocent," and so on.

SMITH Lessee Re Gopher Extermination S^^>^>^>^W^^��^^MS^^>3S^S^ Midway School Report for March Attention is called to the fact that a small appropriation lias again been made available by the Department of Agriculture for assisting in the extermination of gophers and ground squirrels during the coming season. It is urged that in those interior districts where both the Brown Pocket Gopher and Columbian Ground Squirrel are proving such pests and involving considerable loss to the orchards and mixed farming industries, strong effort be made to supplement individual action along the lines of trapping, poisoning, shooting &c, by interesting the school children and young people of the district'in entering gopher killing competitions, .which should be organized as soon as possible. In the year 1922, the Department of Agriculture granted assistance along the line of the payment of bounties for tails sent in and certified to by local organizations &c. This year, however, the Department will help local bodies holding competitions to kill gophers by means of grants of dollar for dollar, not to exceed a maximum of ��20.00 for any one Institute or Farmer's Organizations. Local Institutes or Farmer's Organizations should therefore arrange for such competitions where considered advisable, making proper provision for the prize money. The results of the competition are to be set forth in detail, signed by President and Secretary, and forwarded, with an application for the proper grant,' to the Department later in the season. Any local Institutes or. Farmer's Organizations taking. thiB. scheme up should communicate with' the Department,[ of;-Agriculture, Vic- X toria, at once." 7 ; W W ..'.'-' 7' i"'-' Further information, if desired; .-''- can-be obtained from ; the.Govenn- 7 .ment Agent,- Greenwood.. /Provincial Party Meeting At -Grand Forks. 7 On * Saturday, April 5th- . dele- . gates of the different Locals of. the Grand Forks Greenwood/ Biding /met in Grand Fork's : to form a '--.
