Tho bride was given away by her uncle, Mr. W. G, Hay- word, while Mis.s Winnie Cox acted as bridesmaid aud Mr. Hurry Moore was the best man, Little Miss Peggy Moore was flower girl. The ceremony WOS performed by Rev. W. T. TapBCOtt, Mrs. Kvans playing the WOdding march. Following tho ceremony the guests journeyed to the residence of Mr. Harry Moore where a delightful wedding breakfast was served.

Rutledge, dairy inspector, and enquired as to conditions which might not properly come under the jurisdiction of thc dairy inspector. He also reported for the health committee as recommending that in the case of a complaint made as to an outside toilet, that the owner of the premises in question, and another property owner where similar conditions are known to obtain, be notified that they must make connections with the sewer. Alderman Cameron did not agree with this step, claiming that as the by-law in this respect had not been lived up to, it was unwise to discriminate, and further that the sewerage disposal works were now taking all that could be properly treated. of the legal firm of Herchmer, Mitchell & Lilly, and Miss Hilda Ford' ham, of Halifax, N.S.

The light committee reported a power consumption of about 68,000 meetings will result k.w.h., a slight decrease over thu! same month last year. A number of interesting points were also brought up In connection with the light committee's report. The report of the fire chief showed six alarms attended to last month, one of the fires, thut at Nelson's Studio, doing damage estimated at $1411. Committee Report! An interesting report from the works committee was read, showing lhe quantities of material moved for (Continued of Page Four) and Son's mc(a)lee, as the conflict was a confused one and hand to hand all the way through. My, but it was a great day for thc boys first of ull to gel their dads out to actually play with them and then to see them "bent" il rather than face ignominious defeat. Those responsible for the game should feel pleased with the result of their efforts, but should see to it that it is not the lnst affair of its nature. Considering the threatening weather and the necessity of a large number having to leave for Kimberley who would undoubtedly have been present, the number In attendance was very good, a large number of cars filled with people cheering for one side or the other—but as near us could be judged, most of the mothtrs were pulling for the boys. The game had not progressed very far when it was evident that "old man this and that" was'not what he used to be, and that whereas tbe spirit muy have been willing, the flesh was very weak. The referee was W. H, Wilson, who in the first period had his hands full adjusting family differences. The game ..ended 'd to 0 for the boys. The line-up of the teams was as follows: Fathers—Mr. Heise, Art. Wallace, Dr. Large, Bob Moffatt, Allan Moore, W. J. Barber, Ed. Paterson, C. J. Little, W. E. Worden,'P. G. Willis, A, A. McKinnon and I). Buiton. . Boys—Each of the above mentioned fathers wire faced .with their I sons as opponents, and besides these there were also the following ..boys who helped to.spell tiie finis-tv dud's athletic prowess: Colvin Mcfturney, J, MueKarlnne, Rankin, .1. Dixon, Spence and Martin. Wind Give* Out The first period was scoreless, the dads doing their best to keep th boys in check, but try as they would, the young rascals would get away from them. The period was enlivened by some real fun between Bob Moffatt and his son Jack. Bob, who is a firm believer of all being fair in love and war, decided that there Were more ways than one to slop the fleet-footed Jack, so he grabbed him by the foot and down he came. This drew a two-minute penalty from the referee. Never did anything sound more welcome than thc whistle announcing the end of the first period, and Oh, my! the excuses that were forthcoming from the dads for not being able to play in the second period! We, E. Worden had to get in touch with a doctor about one of his sick horses. Mr. MacKinnon was suddenly needed at the * foundry, while Dr. Large, after having cut a gash in Dick's hand, looked Up his note book and found that there wos a patient waiting for him at his office. The only plausible reason was that of Dan Burton, w"ho claimed that bad he known that the game was going to lasl more than one period he would have had Ratcliffe & Stewart pump him up for half an hour intend of fifteen minutes. Ed Paterson claimed he was game to go on but Archie Leiteh, who had made a special trip from Calgary for lho occasion Insisted on going on in his place to get a whack til his young nephew, and incidentally show him how thc game should bo played. Substituting for the dads iu the original Jine-up were: Geo. Simpson, Gib. Sinclair, Ashton Powers and Archie Leiteh. The long distance honor, barring Art Wallace for being in training, goes lo Burly Willis who went through the whole game, keeping on his toes nil the time. Bill Barber and Bob Moffatt decorated the penalty box each for two minutes for some fancied violation of the rules. Fatal Wreck on Penn. R.R.

All of the officers of the lodge were in their places and the degree team put on the initiatory riegrfe for about thirty new Kember- ley members. Following the meeting ii very enjoyable program was remlcied and a delightful lunch served hy the Kimberley members. Among the item? of business dealt with at the meeting was that of the luestlon of holding an occasional meeting in Kimherley every six ks, and on the next occasion it was decided at the suggestion of the Kimberley members that it he con- Hided with a dance. Addreii By Pretident The chairman, Dr. Rutledge, in a -(incise address, intimated that he PCS pleased with the apparent success of the meeting, and the enthusiasm shown hy the Kimherley members. He could see many signs for encouragement from many parts of Cannjia. He could easily see that the results of the work of the Native Sons of Canada would he far-reaching, instilling in the people a virile national spirit, and national pride. He believed that such a result would tend to strengthen tho tie that hinds us to tbe British Empire. It was, however, essential that WO establish a strong Canadian race. He referred to the plans that were being mode to commemorate July 1st in Cranbrook. and how thnt in general there was great need of more attention being drawn to the significance of the day. Mr. H. W. Herchmer in addressing the new fledged members referred f the duties tbat now were theirs, both with respect to the lodge and the country.

I R. Davey is beck from a short holiday with her little daughter from j visiting friends in Cranbrook. Mrs. William H. Seaton, who spent | the winter with her mother and sisters in England, is once more home, having arrived nt Golden last week, where she was met by her husband in his automobile. Miss Florence Brlckson is home to spend the summer. Her winter was spiMit in Victoria. Commander Powles left this week in his new McLaughlin-Buick for HiinIC, Kdmonton and points north. Mrs, E, M. Sandilands, who has been spending the last two months with relatives in the Western United States, returned by way of thc main "ne to Banff on Sunday and wus there met by her husband, both coming back by automobile over the Banff-Windermere highway. The sweet-toned bell presented by His Honor B. Randolph Bruce, i* Christ Church, out of memory to his wife, the lute Lady Elizabeth, has been put up in u specially prepared belfry and was rung for last Sunday's services for the first time. The dance given by the lnvermere Golf Club in the David Thompson Memorial Fort brought to u close a very happy celebration of His Gracious Majesty's birthday. The attendance was very large. The credit is due to the ladies who, as usual, came forward in most excellent style and provided a paper-bag .sandwich supper. The financial results were also encouraging. The announcement has been received that the Glasgow University hus been pleased to confer the honary degree of LL.D. on His Honor R. Randolph Bruce, the Lieutenant- Governor of the Province, our esteemed and respected fellow resident of this district. One of the enterprizing ranchers of this district, Mr. James Morland, of Premier Ranch, Windermere, this summer is starting to muke regular deliveries, by truck, over the famous Banff-Windermere automobile highway, of freshly grown early roots, small fruits and dairy produce. These will be for the bungalow camps particularly and for the tourists camped by the way, filling a long felt want. Other customers will be the large hotels at Banff and the greengrocers. As the trade increases the number of trucks will be increased. By an early start the through run can be made before noon hour passes. Mrs. Charles Fitzsimmons, of the Sunbeam ranch, brought into town two eggs, each weighing over four ounces. These were the product of a White Leghorn pullet of Mrs. Fitz> slmmon's pen. While possibly not record breakers, yet Mrs. Fitzsimmons said the bird was a fairly regular producer of eggs of the equul size. "Westcliffe," at one time the home of Mr. Thomas Archdale Pope, was narrowly close to being caught by fire last week. For many months now it has lain idle but recently some garbage was being burned. A fierce gale sprung up while this wus in operation and the fire broke uway from its tenders and it looked for u while as though the house would be sacrificed. Efforts on the part of immediate residents of that part as- isted hy townspeople, were able to subdue it by hard work. Mr. Walter Nixon, the veteran of muny camp fires in the mountains f B.C., expects to start at once on the improvement and extension of the road leading up Horse Thief Creek to the wonderful scenery known as the Lake of the Hanging Glaciers and the Ice Cave. These wanders of nature are about thirty- five miles west of Wilmer and are looked upon as being wonderful attractions. Up to the present it haa meant a three days' trip to get up there and buck, but if the present intention is curried through the roud for automobile service will be extended a further five miles, cutting the horsebuck journey to the main or base camp to a bare twelve.

PACIFIC MILK ttamd Oficat Vtaeoaver Factorial at Lmdmm* ft AfcWoLforJ Walking through the bush en theae June evenings, one must be Very careful. There ore lote of little nests, and from above a bright eye watches you. Two tail feathers also rise straight up, as if equally alert. Mother bird is ut home, deeply engaged In the hatching, and mustn't be disturbed. The commonest nest hereabouts la not by any means the robin's. Thers is a little jerry-built affair made of wigs and lined with hair that you find east and west nnd everywhere. It is usually perched on a low branch of a little tanuiruc, and contains four tiny blue eggs, spotted towards the larger end with brown and black. The owners nre a kind of sparrow, but neater antl smuller than the houst' sparrow and with a red or bright chestnut bar on the head. Their song ia mere twittering. Another common nest found In low bushes contains four tiny brown eggs. This is as neat and lovingly built as the other is put together carelessly. It is uniformly grey in color, of twigs and cobwebs, all dyed to match. When you come along, the bird owner slips off the nest and into the low grass or bush, and so I haven't identified him yet. Finding a thrush's nest the other day reminded me of the firat thruah'i nest I found, some thirty years ago, and it might have been the same identical nest—same straw structure and same lining of dried mud. Now, if Mr. Darwin is right, why don't the birds fit into the scheme of evolution? This carrying mud to the home by the bill-full Is a terribly slow old fashioned way of building.

The one nearest Molly wu i oc- mpied by the president of the uni- versity and his wife; the other had remained up to this juncture conspicuously empty. Now a (jroup of elegantly gowned women and men in evening dress filtered through the velvet curtains at the buck. Molly leaned forward to admire the beautiful toilettes and hair dressings, the softly voluptuous wraps, which slipping downward revealed rounded white arms und gleaming shoulders. Of ti .sudden she dropped back In hei seat, a choking cry frozen on her lips. Stephen was at that moment adjusting the chair for the youngest and handsomest of tbe women, murmuring the while something audacious and smiling in her ear. Molly knew that il was audacious—knew loo well that look, that smile. She could almost bear the tone that went with them . . She closed ber eyes, caught her quavering lips fiercely between her teeth, shrank down Into the smallest conceivable space. How dreadful if be should sec her, should guess how she was suffering, sin.old pity her . ,1 She roused a little presently and looked round with some vague, desperate thought of escape, If she could only get out without lieing seen, without creating a commotion „ . . Bul no, she was hemmed in on every side, trapped like n wounded animal. Turning and twisting silmtly, writhing in her anguish to escape, she encountered Mrs. Parker's scared, stricken fuee. "Of course, he's hound to be invited out a lot," the latter whispered with n brnve ifToit of pooh-poohing the whole thing, "a line handsome man like him—and so entertaining! That's millionaire Dllworth's daughter he's with . . . ." Poor Molly, all ber long-anticipated joy in the music, all the acute spirit- release she was Used to getting out of it, turned to ashes nml grapes of gall. She determined not to look nt that spot opposite, but she could look nowhere else. She B0\v every move, every gesture, every glance of Stephen's and the girl's. She knew when he was saying something witty or clever before Uie smiles or politely restrained laughter of his little audience proclaimed It, She noted even the careless, rather indolent manner in which he applauded, an much an to- man at the other end of the box from Stephen . . . ?" Mrs. I'arker kept up still a subdued stream of chatter, as if she hoped thos to make it up lo Molly. "That's Gregory Cochran. He's n greal man polities anil every way. a judge I and a lawyer and I don'l Know what ill . . . ," Molly turned her eyes dully in the lirection indicated—anything in or- ler nol to look at Stephen and the girl . . . .At first, she was conscious nly of a blur uf black mid white. Then slowly there emerged, like a figure oui of her delirium, square, solidly built shoulders, a squarish, chestnut bronzed bend, ll face not given to mirroring readily it- owner's thoughts and emotions.

While she continued to -'are with dreary, unguish-gbized eyes, the man leaned forward and made some laughing remark to the mugnificenl old while haired lady in front of him. Again the suggestion of mass, almost of cumbrousness. "That's his motlur," Mrs. Parker chirped guardedly behind hei hand, "the highty-tighty one who looks as If she'd just swallowed u poker . . . '."

For many on the land il will mean that instead of entire failure of the crops there will be something to harvest, and continued moisture under favorable conditions may even mean that grain crops can approach the average. ( hi the western prairies where the crops were nol fai forward, the rain has meant that fairlj good crop: can be looked for, and the benefit iron: such a condition as this does not need any explanation in this district, Apart from this, forest fires which had been threatening to spread, fanned by the high wind . were extinguished, with an immense aviny to the government and tin- people in general. 'IIn nnimer rains are essential to the welfare uf the iii trict, and jusl what they mean, expressed in dollai and cents gives rise to the expression thai il wa a "million dollar rain." ll was. literally, ami worth more than a million a thai. ***** THE NON-ADVERTISER THE bu ine man or merchant who refuses to make use <-i the newspaper for carrying hi* printed mi age because he knows "it doesn'l pay," or becau ■ a some other plan for advertising, invariably ' i 'i.i idea Lhal he is a pioneer in tliat way of thinking. On the contrary, however, there is uot an angle ul the advertising game that has not In < ii gone intu by men who havi- made the analyst; of advertising their life study. It has all been gone ovci with the minuteness of a microscopical examination, and the result of all ihis experience is thai newspaper advertising today is still predominant "■' r all other methods that can he employed to tell the story. I he person who suffers most when newspaper space i> not made use of is the person whu should be using that space. When other means are used to do the advertising that the newspapers should have it is obvious that the question becomes simply une ol tin method tt. be employed. The fact that other step are taken indicates that the need fur ad ver is ing itself is felt. Handbills arc sometimes distributed, but no method has yet been devised that gives the coverage of the newspaper. The leakage in the handbill system starts right at the beginning— a good many never go out of the post offices, or if il is a house to house distribution, just as many of them never get in the house. If the housewife is not just ready tu take it up and study it, the bill yets put aside—and sometimes stays put aside. The newspaper on the oiher hand goes into the houses one hundred per cent. If it does not, there are enquiries for it, but whoever enquires for a bill that was supposed to be dropped at the door, or put in the post office? It has been likened to an attempt to get into the confidence of the housewife covertly, instead of using the wide open method ut approach provided by the newspaper. Don't let your advertising enter the house by stealth, have it go there with the full force of frankness. Put it in the newspaper, and it will be read when the whole family is in the best state of mind to assimilate it all. WHAT WILL BE ITS FATE? ANOTHER agrarian government goes on trial this month, when tlu* Alberta general elections will be held. It is the coming of age of the prairie province, the provincial government there lieing set up twenty-one years ago. Por years, up to the tune of the accession of the Partners' party to the seal of power, the province had a Liberal government. The blame for the state of affairs ihere can be apportioned between them any way at all, it certainly cannot be blamed on the Conservatives, for they have never held power in Alberta. Hut the fact remains that at the same time the young province assumes manhood's years, as it were, it also falls heir tu a deht of upwards of eighty million dollars, which has been accumulated in those years, from the time the government of the day started out with a clean sheet. ll would surprise few people if the government of Alberta went the same way as the governmenl ui" Ontario, where the farmers' party were swept into oblivion, and the Conservative party took uver the reins of office, with a clear majority uver all others. There is mi question but that the feature of the Alberta campaign up to the present has been tin; rejuvenation of the Conservative parly, which now has a candidate in every one of the sixty odd ridings. A. A. McGtllivray, an able Calgary lawyer, has assumed the leadership of the party, and his campaign has been a Strong une. The Liberals have had difficulty in the matter of leadership, and finally fell back on J, T. Shaw, of Calgary, whu was in the last federal election defeated in Calgary by Hun. R, li. Bennett, when Capt. Shaw was running as an independent. Among the farmer ranks themselves, it is questioned whether the breach caused by the abdication of the former premier, E. W. Greenfield, lias been entirely Healed. CITY BACKS "Y" PLANS (Continued rroni Page One) genera] activities of thu department iti regard !<• il:-- water works, culverts, fills, ele.

The short side at the sawmill is shut down for this week, while the mitl-wrights are putting in the new carriage, which arrived here a week or so ago. Miss Laurlne Corbett journied to Cranbrook between trains on Saturday last. Miss Corbett ia now the first to introduce the "boyish bob" in Wardner, and so far the only one. Mrs. R. Reid and daughter returned to Wardner ou Saturday, after spending the past two or three months visiting her parents at the Coast. Messrs. Oyer Elderhing utid John Molr returned to Wardner on Friday evening from Lethbridge, where they motored on Wednesday to witness the big football match between the Lethbridge picked team and the English All Stars, now touring this country. The hoys report tho match as "some game," the English team Winning by II goals to 1. They also state that the Englishmen would have scored several other goals had it not been for the brilliant work of Sawyer, of Pernie, who ployed goal-keeper for Lethbridge. John A. Lawson, Mr. Johnson nnd daughter, Louise, of the Wardner Hotel, and Mrs, Howard Haney, left Wednesday morning for Spokane, and certainly made a rapid trip. The party left Wardner at six a.m., and readied Spokane at four o'clock that afternoon. Before returning home John A.

Elmer, Harry and Sam Thompson motored to Crnnbrook on Friday evening on business. The third ball game of the Bull River-Wardner junior baseball series was secheduled for Friday evening of last week, but owing-to that dote already being taken for the basketball games between Fort Steele and] Wardner, the basebull game was post- poned until Friday evening of this j week, weather and others conditions, permitting. ] A petition is being circulated in town regarding the building of the new Club Hall which has been planned on during the past few months. The new hall is to be used for indoor sports as u general club room and danco hull, etc., and is expected to cost in the neighborhood of $3000.00. The employees' club have set.aside $400.00 to be used in starting the building if the petition goes through. A baseball team comprised of members from Waldo und Baynes, motored to Wardner on Sunday uf- ternoon for the purpose of playing a gome against the local nine. Batteries for the day were; Waldo, Uilts and McNab; Wardner, Dow and B. Embree. The local team was mainly a pick-up team, several new recruits being tried out, and making a food showing for themselves, among these being Harold Anderson und Rollie Thompson, who, for the first time, mude their appearance on tho "big team," although they have played on the junior team for some years. Wesley Montgomery also made his initial appearance with the big team, all three of these doing well indeed. The score of the game went high for the locul team, who won the game easily by 21-9. Home (runs wore mude by Ben Embree und Prank Thompson, the latter knocking one of the longest hits ever known on tin- home diamond. Had Prank bail a little less weight to cany, or could be huve run a little faster, by the way, he could easily have made three borne runs during the game, so spectators declare. Several 2nd nnd 3rd base- hits were made, while almost every butter up succeeded in knocking the bull for a base or two. .lack Dow pitched a good, steady game, fanning Ids men time ami again. Three ol the regular, ami best, players on the team were absent—Harry and Sam Thompson ami Iteg. Reed being out of town—but according to tho final tally Wurdner managed just aa well. Rather a small number of spectators turned out to witness the game, no notice being given oui previously, but a collection amounting to about eleven dollars wus taken. This mokea Wurdner's second win over Waldo, the first victory taking place ll month earlier. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Renick, Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Thompson. Mr. nnd Mrs. Wm. Holton, Tony Thompson, C.

A lucky year—l«S-lor Peter De- Paolo, twenty-six year old nephew of Ralph DePalma Ever since Peter tied his baby's shoes to the front springs of his Duesenberg he has finished in the money. To see his little Number 12 nose out in front of the veterans at Indianapolis and stay there. was a thrill that comes only once in a life time. To take those four short terrible turns of thc brick saucer with out juggling the accelerator wasn't done for Death doesn't like to be kidded. But led by two tiny baby shoei young Pete knew that there was nothing in front but victory and so— didn't bother to lift his accelerator foot from the floor, turn or no turns. Sheer guts and a mechanically perfect car won that race. Peter, when he visited me in Chicago on his way back frum Italy, iold ma that he would be able to achieve tha unhearl of speed of one hundred and forty live miles an hour on the Culver City Howl in California Thanksgiving Day. As Pete is a modest young man his statement bears considerable weight. It is doubly emphatic in view of thc fact that this year's A. A. A. champion —little Peter, himself, turned the Culver Bowl in Competition last April at 1397 miles per hour, which, as the world knows, is moving right along. One hundred mid t'orty-fivc miles an hour is nearly four miles faster than the mile straightaway record for 122- inch cars. So you sec what automobile progress is doing, Front drive machines and balloon tire? were tbe innovations al this year's Indianapolis race. The front drive cars have been taking the turns belter, and manufacturers claim it won't lie long now before passenger cars are built along similar lines. Doa't get the idea that race pilots strive constantly to set up new speed records. They don't I Their object is to win the race, and good pilots, like experienced baseball pitchers, win their contests with brains and control as much as by speed. Wild stories of the immense earn iogs of race pilots startle tbe world into believing that automobile racing in easy money. But there k no pilot who earns one-tenth enough to wai other car. liven then the chaacts are hint. Every so often some plot cap tures a big race with a big prste. But there are hundreds of pilots and only a few big purses. And yet each "f the race entrants is conhilent>of win ning "first money". And ever? oue o( them is planning just how he will n<' thousand pounds for permission to fish off the Irish const. Strangers were prohibit-1 ed from fishing In English seas by a proclamation of Charles I in 1086. Tho Dutch paid thirty' thousand in 1686 for the privilege of using tho English fisheries, and in 1G60 Sweden obtained liberty to employ one! thousand vessel- in Hritish waters, i So on to the nineteenth century regularly laws were enacted in the British Islands for the purpose of protecting the fisheries. Early Conflict With U.S. We now come to Canadian waters. The Washington Treaty in the year 18T0 marks the beginning of an important perioil in the history of the relations of Canada with the United States. The question of the fisheries had been unsettled since the treaty of 17811, giving the fishermen of the United States certain fishing rights off the shores of Newfoundland ami other portions of British North America. The pent was raised whether these privileges were cancelled by the war of 1812-14. The contention of the United Slates was that the treaty of 178.'! was perpetual as to fishing privileges, just as it was perpetual as to independence. The British enforced their claims under protest from the United States until ISI8, when a convention was made between the two countries hy which American fishermen were allowed to share in the inshore fisheries on certain British coasts and were excluded from others. By the abrogation of the Elgin Treaty in 180(3 the parties were thrown back to the convention of 1818. To'prevent friction it was then agreed that annual licences should be issued to fishermen of the United States on payment of a nominal fee. At first a considerable number of licences were taken out, but when the fee was increased in 1868 there wot* much fishing without licence. On January 8th, 1870, the Can adian government abolished the licence system and sent a fleet of cruisers to protect the fisheries. Seizures of American vessels were made, and there was much irritation. President Grant, in liis annual message to Congress in 187U severely criticized the action of the Canadian government. Later Settlement There were other causes of friction, Canada had a claim on the United Stales arising out of the Fenian raids. At the same time the United States claimed damages against Great Britain for the loss to American shipping caused by the escape of the Alabama from the Laird shipbuilding company at Birkenhead, opposite Liverpool, although the guns and other material were put on hoard at Madeira, as well as her crew, who were southerners. In liis speeeli defending tho Washington Treaty In 1872, Sir John Macdonald said that as long as the Alabama question remained open, Great Britain was seriously weakened in dealing with other powers. Kg feared thai the Alabama question might be pressed just when Great Britain was engaged in mortal combat with some other nation. The Johnson- Clarendon Treaty intended to settle this dispute hud boen rejected by the senate of the United States; Great Britain could not with self-respect have re-opened the question of the Alabama. Sir John Macdonald said thai the fishing question was regarded by Great Britain as furnishing an opportunity for indirectly re-opening the Alabama question. The invitation was made by the British ambassador to consider the fishing question. The United States—by a quiet and friendly understanding between the two powers—replied acceding lo the request, on condition that the larger and graver matters of dispute were also made a matter of negotiation. In 1870 Hon. Alexander Campbell was sent to England to consult tlie imperial government concerning tlie proposed withdrawal of troops from Canada, the question of lortificn-, tions, tbe invasion of Canadian ter-1 ritory by citizens of the United States, the systematic trispas^es on the Canadian fishing grounds hy United States fishermen and the unsettled question as to thc limits within which foreigners could fish under the treaty of 1SI8. The British government suggested the appointment of a joint high commission to discuss questions which had arisen out of thc fisheries, as well as all those wliich affected the relations of tlie United States and Canada.

WINDERMERE BOARD OF TRADE ACTIVITIES OUTLINED FOR PAST YEAR Several Important Gatherings Held Under Its Auspices; Other Developments Secretary's Report (Specinl to The Herald) lnvermere, B.C., June 12th.— To the President and Members of the Windermere District Board of Trade. Gentlemen: Touching on the operations of the Board for the last year it may be said that no general meeting of the members was held since the date of tbo Uth annual meeting, which was held on the 2nd of July last year. There not being any special business to lay before the Board as a body wns the chief reason for not calling any meeting in the interval. Since your last annual meeting, however, several gatherings of thc residents of the district have taken place linden the auspices of the Board. One of these was that called on the 21st of September, 1026, which resulted in the formation of a loeal colonization association. Just a few duys prior to that we had nn informal discussion with Superintendent Plett, of the C.P.R,, relative to a proposal to change tin- time in the operating of the trains. The change was thought to he a retrograde movement ami when it was pointed out to the officials of the CP.R. the old time card, which is tbe present one. was allowed to stand. Other public functions carried Under the general auspices of the Board were tho public reception held and tlie address presented to Captain A. 11. MacCarthy on his return as the conquering hero who had led the successful expedition in the first attempted ascent of Mount Logan, an expedition which was watched with interest liy tho mountain climbers throughout the world. Another reception of very personal interest to all the dwellers within the district was the one given under the usplccs of the Board to the Honorable R. Randolph Bruce on his first home Coming after this outsanding appointment. Still another—this lime on a Sunday, and for that reason necessarily a quiet one—wos the reception of tbe BngHsh Teachers who, as a body, spent twenty-four hours in our midst. Still another was the informal meeting by those who ale your officers with the principals representing a learned body of collegians from tile Province of Quebec who were touring Canada and stopped oil' here en route. Several informal luncheons were given to well known people aa Dutch treats by the niombers of your council and others who felt inclned to join in, We have again to record the loss of members, one being Mr. Oeorge A. Bennett, one of tbe persons present at lhe founding of the Board and one of its charter members. Mr. H. B. Gore is a second one.

It has been my good fortune, for muny years pust, to meet Dr. Mair at Winnipeg, Prince Albert, Fort Steele. Calgary, Victoria, Vancouver and other points, and always with growing admiration for his mastery of the Knglish tongue and his passionate devotion to Canada and the Empire. Just a week ago I spent some hours with him in Victoria, where he hus lived in comfortable quarters hut in somewhat forced seclusion on account of his somewhat precurious stute of health. Yet, when I suw him a week ago tlu re, he had much of the ruddy complexion surviving from his years of outdoor life on the grent pluins und mountains of the West. And he retained his mental clarity as well as his power for beautiful diction, to get her with a perfect acquaintance with current literature, as well as with current events. To meet this quite ri mnrkuble man is a liberal education. ■ Creston, which is unu-ually well sup plied with dairy butter this season.— Creston Review Mr. and Mrs. Reid and family, who have bnen residing in the Moorhouse cottage on Lumsden Avenue for the past two or three months, left this week for Manitoba, where they will be residine.
