Grant left Victoria for their home in Nnnaimo, following their wedding in Victoria in 1880, Mr. Grant was born in Rctou, Nova Scotia, in 1854, and came in 1875 to British Columbia where he was engaged in survey work for the Canadian Pacific Railway in the Rockies. For some years he worked under the late Robert Dunsmuir, near Nanaimo and tells of his early logging experiences up the Island, when men and oxen did the work which is now done hy machinery. Old Days, Good Days I've seen good days nnd bad days", snid Mr. Grant in recalling his experiences, "but the old days were surely good ones. We had plenty of everything up the Island a little rough in spots, maybe, but everyone was happy and contented. There were very good stores in Nanaimo and we all worked hard. Unemployment was unknown." In 1898 he and a party of eight men from Cumherland set out to try their luck with those who rushed to the Klondike. Of the party two still lived in Victoria—Mr. Kenneth Sharp and Mr, Harry McGregor "There were hardships," lie continued, "but we were lucky; we all got along well and were all woodsmen who knew a thing or two of the wilds. It took us 52 days to traverse 52 miles along the trail, and we carried eight tons of supplies for our party. We were known as the Grant party. I was making $20 a day at one time up there, working in a sawmill and experienced men were hard to find. But by the time you paid $5 for a meal of moose meat, some yeast bread and a cup of black coffee without even milk or sugar, the wages didn't go so far. Eggs were $18 a dozen and butter a dollar a pound," Mrs. Grant was formerly Miss Mc- Cutcheon, a native of New Brunswick, and was one of the first white women on Denman Island. There were fifteen children in the Grant family, nine of whom are living to- day. The sons are Charles Grunt of Cumberlnnd, Dr. James Grant, Robert Albert Lawrence and Stanley; and the daughters, Lily, Mrs. William Hooper (Vancouver), Edna, Mrs. C. Sears (Sidney), Jessie and Mrs. Wm. Gropp. There are fourteen grandchildren and one great grand-daughter. Move to Victoria After living 21 years in Cumberland Mr. and Mrs. Grant und then- family moved to Victoria, where Mr. Grant was associated with Mr. Sam Shore as proprietor of the old Grotto saloon. Municipal and provincial affairs were among Mr. Grant's interests, and he was for two years alderman in Cumberland, mayor in 1902 and member for Comox in McBride Government from 1903 to 1909. He is a Shriiier, and a member of the Oddfellows, Knights of Pythias and the Orange Lodge. At Saturday's reception there was a family reunion and reception for old friends of the bride und groom of fifty years ago. Many life-long friends and associates of pioneer days attended the reception, numerous flowers and gifts supplement ing the congratulations and good wishes were received by the venerable couple from far and wide; During thc evening Dr. James F. Grant, son of Mr, and Mrs. Grant, expressed the happiness of their parents' golden wedding, and voiced the hope that similar happy gathering would mark their diamond wedding celebration. Little Jerry Grant a grandson then presented Mr. Grant with a purse of gold, and little Joan MacDonald, a great-granddaughter, presented a similar gift to Mrs. Grant Mr. Grant responding with emotion on behalf of himself and his wife.

The traffic on the Great Lakes to which the St. Lawrence was the natural outlet to the sea, said Dean Brock, was tremendous. The ton- mice passing through them was greater than the combined tonnage passing through the Manchester Ship Canal from Liverpool, the Panama Canal, the Suez Canal and the Fort of London. It had heen said that Ocean going ships would not use the Waterway if it was completed. If the large vessels used the Suez, the Manchester Ship Canal and the Panama, why would they not use the St. Lawrence-Great Lakes Waterway asked the speaker. In speaking of the agreement between Canada and the United States, Dean Brock pointed out that the United States would build the canal along the International line and Canada in Canadian territory. Canadian rights would be protected. The widening of the St. Lawrence In one portion to 4,000 feet with a depth of ;I0 feet and developing power to the extent of four million horse power wus one of the greatest engineering feats of the world and had been worked out by a TROPHIES TO BE PRESENTED AT BANQUET.

BICKLE A WELL-KEPT PARK ONE ot THE I'.EST evidences ol ;i rising, up- to-iluU' town is a well-kept park. Even if, of necessity, it must be small it serves its purpose by showing strangers thai the citizens of the town take pride in its appearance, Vet this park must be well-kept else it is worse than none at all. Authorities can see that it does not become the loafing place for all the "gentlemen of leisure" in the village. Every town which has a small park recognizes a good thing when they see it and every town which does not possess a park has still a good ihinj; coming, Cumberland's city park is a disgrace to the city, as a park and we doubt very much if it could ever be turned into a park tha! would be of benefit to the city. A few weeks ago a prominent business man. but who is uot a resident of Cumberland, offered to donate the sum of $20(1 towards the turfing of the Recreation Ground here. The board of management of tin' Athletic Club appointed a committee to go further into tbe matter and to report back to thi' board at a later dale, t'p to the present time we have heard nothing further about the scheme. It appears to us a real good move, this turfing of the Recreation ground . Let the city park remain as il is and bend our efforts to improving the Recreatiton Ground. If this area were turfed, all games could be played there. The field is large enough to accommodate the baseballers and cricketers in summer and in winter the ground could lie used by the footballers.

OSTEOMEYLIT1S Osteomyelitis i.s an acute infection in a bone. It is a disease which develops quickly and which is severe, and each year, it takes a toll of lives, chiefly among children. Loss of life, or extensive injury results in these eases, because treatment is not secured without delay for it is the delay of a day or indeed of a few hours, in such acute coridi- j tions as this, which leads to sorloufl ! or fatal results. Failure to secure early treatment is due, in most cases, to the ignor- ance of parents or others responsible for the care of children regarding what happens when there is an acute bone infection. When a child complains of pains in the legs or arms what usually happens is that the parents decide thnt the child has "growing pains" or rheumatism. There is no such condition us "growing pains"; children do not have pains just because they are growing.

When a child has a pain in the stomach, a doctor is called. When a child has a pain in his extremities a doctor should be called just as promptly. The condition may be quite as serious and require treatment quite as urgently. There is generally a history of injury which may be only slight This injury apparently lowers the resistance of the area infeeted.and if there are perms present in the body, they grasp their opportunity. The germs reach the area of lowered resistance and there they multiply rapidly, causing, first of all, inflammation and the subsequent formation of pus and the destruction of tissue. If not properly and promptly treated, the patient will be overwhelmed with the poison produced. The germs reach the area in the blood stream. They may come from such a point as an infected blister on the heel, a boil, a throat infection or, in fact, any point where they have been lodged in the body. The pain starts suddenly in most eases, and is usually severe; the most common location is near a joint of one of the lung ones. The spot is tender and there is fever. It is now that the case should be treated. Late: we find redness, swelling and all the j usual signs and symptoms of inflam- ■ matlon resulting from the activity , if living germs. J The dangers of osteomeylitis will [ Se overcome when parents are on the ', watch for it and when they realize j the urgent need for considering pains i in the extremities as conditions which i demand attention.

F. P. Burden, Minister of Lands. This publication will prove of inestimable value us a reference bonk. It was compiled by the Chief Gogerapher, Major G. G. Aitken and his staff, and in addition to a preface giving historical, Topographical and other information— areas of islands, lakes, drainage basins, cities, municipalities, villages, listst of main rivers and tributaries, data regarding parks, historis sites, ets.—the volume contains approximately 2.1,0110 place names of geographic features. The location is adequately- shown by district and latitude and' longitude. The data from which this volume has been carefully compiled is based upon the most authoritative sources available. In the place names there is the perpetuation of the memory of thc original inhabitants—-the In- ; dians. Tbe intrepid explorers and j fur-traders have given place-names ! signs to their endeavors. Of later I times there are the names of tlie j patient and steadfast pioneers attached to geographical features of I the districts with which they are associated. In more recent times outstanding work and local citizenship I have contributed to the naming of i the rivers, mountains, creeks, seas 1 and other features. The work is one of which the Hon.
