Boundary Hockey
Greenwood leads in the race for
the  Boundary  hockey   honors  by
winning in the local rink last  Friday evening by 5-2, and in Grand
Forks on  Tuesday evening by 1-0.
This makes the League standing as
follows:    Grand Forks won  1, lost
2;   Greenwood won 2 and lost 1.
A good  s!zed crowded attended
the second scheduled game in the
local" rink  last   Friday   evening,
when Grand Forks were the local
boys opponents.    From  the face-
off fche   home boys showed   better
form  than  in  the previous game
and a few minutes after the start
the score was 1-0 in their favor.
The visitors then made an effort and
were successful in- tieing the score.
During the remaining part of the
game the Greenwood boys were the
aggressors,   their   back    checking
featured the play   and. with accurate   shooting   they   were  able to
score four more goals.   A few minutes before the end of the last periods the Forks scored  making the
final count   5-2  in   Greenwood's
favor.
A. J. Morrison refereed the
game in a most impartial manner,
and as. the play was clean he did
not have to send a player to the
penalty box. The line-up follows:
Grand Forks:���Goal, L. F.
Tepoorten; point, Eric Atwood;
cover point, Clinton Atwood; rover
Ludy Frankovitch; centre, W. J.
Reynolds; right wing, "Cy" Pen-
noyer (capt.); left wing, Ralph
Cook. Spares, E. Mcllwaine and
V. Siddall.
Greenwoods���Goal, Dick Taylor;
point, Bob Murray (capt.); cover,
Carl Carlson; rover, Ed. Stanaway;
centre, W. Almstrom; right wing,
George Clerf; left wing, Jim Hallett. Spares, Ross Wood and Pete
Docksteader.
On Tuesday the Greenwood team
journeyed to Grand Forks and
decided the third scheduled game,
when, the Forks went down to defeat by 1:0. So far this'proved to
be the fastest match of the season,
with Greenwood having the edge
of the play over their opponents.
A change was made in the Greenwood line:up, Ed. Stanaway having left the Boundary, Suds Smith
replaced him,_who__ scored, the.only
goal, of the game.   .
The fourth match will be played
in the local rink on Friday evening. The Greenwood boy3 are
showing ..the . best of form and as
the games have been of the best, a
lively contest -will be expected
on that nighfe with the. Foi ks team.
After the play the G. W. V. A.
are.holding a dance in fehe Masonic
Hall. ',"--��� ���-.   ���'":���   ���

Plea for Development of Saskatchewan's Resources Is Made By-
Provincial Member.
The impossibility of adequate development of natural resources taking
place as long as they wcrc controlled
by a central government, so far remote as Ottawa, was stressed by J. G.
Gardiner (North Qu'Appcllc) in the
Saskatchewan legislature. He also advanced the plea that the" university
was thc logical place to conduct rc-'
search work if only the province were
iu a position to make use of it for
that purpose.
An indication that thc resolution is
likely to receive the unanimous support of all parties in the assembly
was given in the few remarks by W.
O. Fraser, Conservative member for
Souris, who supported the principle
of thc resolution.

In the urgency of his own immediate affairs, Ruggles made no attempt by the arm and tried to throw me

find a women's organization efficiently conducting the city market on a
business basis, while many public
markets are directly managed by a
committee appointed by the city
council. The Hamilton board of trade
has established a wholesome relationship between its urban ancl rural
peoples by creating a- fanners' section
of-the board. The friendly co-operation and exchange of views between
the two Sections result in ' a better
understanding of conditions, consequently., the Hamilton market is highly esteemed by growers and buyers.
It serves the interest of bcth. Special
features adopted by various market
administrations are giving excellent
results, for example, thc system
adopted as at Port Arthur .for thc
selling of consignments of-produce by
the market manager on a commission
basis.,, Besides securing to the" .purchasers fresh supplies of food at a
cost, usually below the prices charged
in the stores, these markets bring to
thc    producer    considerably     higher
I prices than if the produce were compelled to pass through several hands
each taking their necessary toll.

2. It was a Spirit-filled church (v.
31). .A praying church is a Spirit-
filled church. The Spirit is given in
answer to1 prayer (Luke-11:13).
3. It was a church which had great
boldness in preaching the Word of
God (v. 31). The minister in a Spirit-
filled church will not offer an apology
for the Bible, but will fearlessly
preach  it.
4." It was a united church (v. 32).
They were "of onc heart and one
soul."

church (v. 32). As needs arose supplies   were   given   from   a   common

Trying to Get a Sawmill
For some time fehe G. W. V. A.
have been working quietly, yet
persistently, towards getting a sawmill started In Greenwood, meeting all obstacles with the same
tenacity of purpose as wag shown
in France and Flanders, overcoming snags and snares with courage
and vim, so that the Government
is at laefc sitting up and taking
notice. They have written to the
Boundary Branch of the G. W.
V. A. stating that the scheme appears feasible and that they will
investigate the matter and if there
is tbe amount of timber in the district as stated they will advance
sufficients capital to buy a plant
and erect the mill. If erected the
mill will employ 12 to 15 men the
year round. As far as possible
only returned men will be employed and it is to be known as. the
Veterans Sawmill Co.. .    .
The Storage of lee
The Bfeorage of a few block of ice
for summer use; is a very simple
matter where the . ice is readily
available. Any unoccupied corner
of a shed will serve for the purpose.
A rough board enclosure 10 feet
square and 8 feet high .will hold
enough ice to provide.60 pounds
per day for i30 days, after allow:
ing for a_ reasonable amount of
wastage.' The smaller, the quantity stored, the larger is the proportion of waste.
The bottom of the enclosure
should be covered with about one
foot ofsawdost. If the soil urider-
-neativis impervious clay -it will be
all . the\ better if there is a few.
inches of gravel under the sawdust!
In putting in the ice the ; boards
can be taken away from' one side
and replaced after the ice is in
position. A space'ofl foot should
be left between the ice and. the
Z boards, to. be filled.-, with . sawdust,
and the ice should be covered, with
about the 'same .thickness.:; It. iB
the sawdust which keeps iha-ice
from melting;. The drier.Jhe saw-,
dustiis the better the ice will keep,
and it is a good plan,-, as the ice is
removed during ;the^ summer, to
throw, out; from time to .time; the
/driest of the sawdust whereit '.will
be undercover and to .continue to
dry. oat. and; thus be" in better . coh��.
difeion to be used again the follow-
ingyeaf. -The ice should be cut
in blocksof uniform.size.and pack-
. ed 8B closely together as possible.

A Noted Jungle Explorer
Attention i3 called to the advertisement of the Jungle Pictures to
be shown in the Greenwood
Theatre on Thursday, Jan. 29, by
Carveth Wells, the well known
Chautauqua entertainer and Jungle
explorer. In Vernon, Kelowna,
Penticton and Salmon Arm, where
the explorer spoke both in churches
and schools, the entertainment
drew such large crowds that it had
to be repeated.
Greenwood is fortunate in securing this noted explorer, whose pictures, made from bis own photos
in the jungle, have been shown in
over 300 Canadian towns with
Chautauqua during the last 12
mouths.
Mrs. Carveth Wells, who for
over four years lived in the depths
of the jungle with her husband,
gracefully demonstrates the Malay
methods of dressing, exhibiting
many gorgeous Oriental costumes.
Together they give a two hours
entertainment which in the words
of the Salmon Arm Observer, was
"The most interesting ancl enter-
taing ever given in the city."

COURTESY  TO  THE  CALLER
When you answer the telephone, you are courteous in
your answer. If you are answering a business telephone,
however, it would be more courteous'if instead of saying
"Hello," you aunouncod the name of the firm or department.
One greets another on the street with "Hello," but then one
sees the other is no need to annouce the person speaking. ������������.Oa
the telephone-it is different. You anticipate what a person,
wants to know when you reply to a call, "This is Hoe &
Company, Mr, Blank speaking."
