The same delegation was present at this year's meeting and put forth their claims in favor of Union Bay once more, with the result that it was decided that tho shipping place would get the picnic this year. A lot of Cumberland people have heen carried away with the idea that there is no shade at the field at Union Bay. hut a perusal of the above plan will readily show that quite a lot of shade is available right at the field.

PAGE TWO CUMBERLAND ISLANDER, CUMBERLAND, B.C. FIUDAY, JULY a. 1S21 The Cumberland Islander PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY AT CUMBERLAND, 11 r. EDWARD W. BICKLE CANADIAN BUSINESS CONDITIONS FROM all parts of Canada there are satisfactory reports concerning the high level of business activity, although there are a few lines, such as automobiles, where the mid-summer recession Is beginning to be felt. Building contracts for the firsl five months of thi year exceeded tho highl records made in 1H28: iron and steel production is al a maximum, and flour mills are turning out a larger volume than in recent years. Tho mining statistics for tho first quarter of the year show a substantial gain over the record attained in 1928, and forecasts for initil production lor tho year are optimistic. Although the recent fall in ilo price of wheat has made dealers in semi-luxury products somewhat cautious, the actual volume ot' distribution in lho early pari of thr your has o xceptionally satisfactory. As yel ii i- lo early i" forecasl agricultural prospects for 'lit' '■ml <>i the year, The return of the farmer depends upon quantity ami (.'nolo as well as tho price.. The outcome oi' crops in other pans of the v irld, a contributing factor of major importance, is too much a matter of circumstance to warranet undin pessimism concerning Canada's prospects for nexl year. In case the West should have an unprofitable year for wheat, there are circumstances which will tend to mitigate tho effect of sucha misfortune upon ihe value of trade. In lhe lirst place, I lie past four years have placed the farmer in a relatively more satisfac- ments throughout th.. worlil may he brought about. Althougl the Government is not in a position to command a majorit: over ;'li. there appears in be no disposition on the ii.iii oi either opposition party to score unless some very vital matter he Involved. It is recognized N" | tory position to s.and tho strain of a period of adversity; in the second place, farming is of less relative importance i;i Canadian economy as a whole than before the war. With the growth in importance of mining, and the extension of the pulp and paper industry which is now in a much more satisfactory position than last year, together with diversification in general manufacturing Canadian industry is much more stable than in the past. Early crop reports indicate that Canadian crops are making good progress and crop conditions may lie considered normal for this time I of year. LABOR AND NATIONALIZATION n'rniMi yartleutarlj suriirlsing i- contained in the Speech from ilm Throne which areat Britain's Lord I A ^ rhnncellot reatl in Parliament yesterday.

Golden Wedding (Continued from Page One) the Rev. G. L. Bourdillon called the gathering to order and conveyed congratulatory messages trom the Victoria Deanery and from the Bishop of Columbia who regretted his inability to attend the function owing to being in hospital undergoing an operation. Mr. Willemar .said he had also received a congratulatory message from the Lieutenant-Governor. Mr. Bourdillon then called upon Mayor Pear.--'', ol Courtenay, who said it was not often a mayor had the opportunity oi taking part in a golden wedding celebration during his year of ofhee. He said it was a very great pleasure to he there on behalf of the city of Courtenay and district to convey congratulations and yood wishes to Mr. and Mrs. Willemar and thanks for (the part they had taken in developing : and bringing thc dislrict to what It 1 was to-day. They all appreciated, said Mr. Pearse, what they owed to the old : pioti'- irs of tlie district and they recognized the fact that the present state they had reached was due to the early tiers the majority ot whom came to : take up land and tarn their living as [ farmers, There was great credit and I honor due them but there was greater j honor due to one who came as a pioneer parson, who had not come to carve ! a farm out of the hush but came to 1 help others. They knew by repute, said the May or. that Mr. and Mrs. Willemar were always doing what they could for their neighbors and the district ever since they came here. They rejoiced with them that they were in such good Bayview Dairy wishes to annuonce that Miss .Mary Marriott will arrive on Saturday to take charge.

It had been his privilege to follow Mr. Willemar in the parish. Mr. Willemar had been in 1 charge for forty-one years while he .had been sent to another charge after only three and one half years and he thought it was harder to stay a long | lime in one parish than a short time. i Mr. Willemar. said the Archdeacon, j could he called a builder of churches. He had first built tlie 'little white j church on the lull" at Sandwick. then the church at Comox and the one at Cumberland.. He reminded those present that at the close of Mr. Willemar s long ministry it had been felt that some memorial of his incumbency should be made so they had put a carved oaken chair in the church and lie asked that whenever they looked upon this chair they should remember in whose honor it was there. In liis interesting way. the Archdeacon then told of the good work of Mr. Willemar in the district and the energy with which he undertook the work, one of his experiences being a trip through to Alberni to spread the gospel ai a lime there was neither trail nor road. On behalf of the committee he then presented Mr. and Mrs. Willemar with r. purse ot gold and he | also presented a token of appreciation om thi1 clergy ui the diocese. Mr. T. Beckensell was then called I upon to present the address. Mr. Beckensell said it was a great privilege to him to have that honor. He Iliad known Mr. Willemar for the past fifty-seven years, in fact he was one I oi the six men now living who had come to the district prior to his own arrival in lHTii. These six men were Beach, who came in 1866; Mr. A. Ur- I quhart and Mr. Willemar. who came !in 1871 and Mr. Jos. McPhee. who came 'a little later. Mrs. Dingwall had arrived in 1870 and Mrs. Beach in 1872. ! Mr. Beckensell then went on to tell jof what they had to contend with in ! those early days, particularly in the j matter of road building and how difficult it was, as compared to the pre- | sent time, to gel about the parish. But Mr. Willemar was not only a faithful minister but he was a hard worker. Besides his parish work he kepi his cows and chickens and always had a good garden. Mr. Beckensell. on behalf of the committee, then presented the following address, beautifully illuminated: "The Rev. Jules Xavicr Willemar and Mrs. Willemar July 1st 1H7H - July 1st 1929 "On the occasion nf the fiftieth anniversary of your wedding we wish to express our esteem and afTertlun for you aud extend congratulations. "During your long ministry in the Comox District from 1871 to 1913, you were always ready with a kind word and helping hand to all pioneers from the day you designed and built St. Andrew's church until you retired to take your well-earned rest. "It Is the sincere hope of all of us that you will long remain in our midst." Mr. Bourdillon paid tribute to the kindly sympathy extended to him by Mr. Willemar in the two years he had been in the parish. There was never any criticism and he considered it a high honor to carry on the work so well and truly laid. A beautiful wedding bouquet was presented to Mrs. Willemar by little Miss Cooke. Mr. Willemar was visibly affected when he rose to respond. He said they were all there because they were his friends. He had always tried to make friends and keep them and the day was one of the happiest days of his life seeing so many friends around him. A golden wedding, he said, was a great thing in a man's life. They had all come of their own free will and were doing everything to make the day a successful and happy event because they were his friends. He thanked the mayor and the archdeacon for what they had said about him but he didn't know he had done all the things they said he had done. In all his life he had never seen a crowd of people looking so happy and so bright to his eyes. It was the best sight he had ever seen and this was because they felt they were doing a good work in making an old couple happy but they had done nothing to deserve it; they had always lived a simple life amongst them trying to put more enjoyment into the lives of the people amongst whom they lived. His hobby had been to meet the people as friends, not as parishioners, sharing their joys and sorrows. There was a saying. "Cast thy bread upon the waters and it will return to you after many days," 'and that bread was now returning in kind words and kind deeds. He accepted the presents as tokens of their friendship. He humorously related that when he said he had been married tor fifty years he had bcen told he deserved a medal, but if he Mr. Joe Fitzgerald and Mr. Charles Hooper, who came in 18G4: Mr. Win, iiJ; X i &)t£M£M SURE!

Dinah Shurey's story deals wilh Ihe lives of two boys born in vastly different stations of life. One is the son of tin admiral, the other the son of a fisherman. A friendship grows up between Ihem and they become inseparable. It is the story of good clean, wholesome youths welding together that inseparable friendship. There are no hectic love scenes, no bitter quarrels. The bo yslove and marry, each in their own sphere. They go their various ways, one to his fishing, the other to the senior service as an officer. Then war clouds gather and both rejoice that they may serve their country, together perhaps in the same ship. Bu something happens. The fisherman, to save the honour of his friend, sacrifices his own good name, the esteem of his friends, and then life itself. This he does just as many Britishers have.
