A\ndecade ago this mine had been abandoned. It had been a low grade cop-\nlosition, and the price of copper had been too low to pay for the\nsmelting of the ore. In addition to\ncopper, the ore contained five other\nprecious and semi precious minerals.\nThe problem which the smelter's research men set themselves to solve\nwas to release these other minerals\nat a cost which would justify the\ntreatment of the ore. After two years\nexperimenting a process was evolved\nfor releasing the tin and the mine reopened. Succeeding discoveries had\nrendered practical the releasing of\nthe other minerals with the result\nthat the Sullivan mine is now a world\nfamous mine. From it was extracted\none-eighth of the world's total production of Chronium\u2014a valuable byproduct.\nWhat has been demonstrated m\nother countries, Mr. Davie said, that\nmore than one hundred valuable byproducts could be obtained from coal-\nmedicines, dyes, fertilizers and a great\nvariety of liquid fuels to mention only\na few.

Under these circumstances It was not\npossible to find sufficient time to\ncover thoroughly and revise the subjects during school hours.\nlit an endeavour to remedy this\nstate of affairs. Miss Partridge and 1\nwillingly gave instruction after school\nhours. Candidly speaking, however,\nthere are several drawbacks to this\nexpedient. In the llrst place, at the\nend of the regular school hours the\npupil! are naturally somewhat tired\nand their ability to get full value from\nthe instruction is below par. Furthermore, It would unfortunately appear\nthat this extra teaching is considered\nby some to be un Indication of Inefficient teaching during school hours.\nThus, a misconstruction, arising from\nnon-appreciallon ot thc difficulties\nand efforts of the staff .is placed on\ntlie extra time taught outside regular\nschool hours.\nIll conclusion I wLsh to acknowledge the hearty co-operation 1 have received from .Miss Partridge.\n1 beg to remain,\nYours truly,\nP.

C.\nEDWARD W. BICKLE\nFRIDAY, JULY 6th, X928\nVANCOUVER, THE PORT OF DESTINY, Vancouver\nas a grain port, drawing Its wheat wholly from the\nprairies, has, in a few years become the third, if\nnot the second greatest port in the world. This is the\nstatement made by no less an authority than R, D. Williams president of the .Merchants' Exchange given at a\nbanquet recently In celebrating the passage through thu\nport of the eightieth million bushel of grain this season.\nThe success of the port was attributed to the policy of\nihe Board of Harbro Commissioners.\nThe mere fact that Vancouver has drawn so largely and\nso Increasingly on the grain from the prairies U proof\nthat it pays to route grain westward. It permits a saving\nfor the producer that formerly was paid in transportation\ncosts.\nThere are other Significant features, however. As the\ngrain shipments through Vancouver have Increased, so\nhave the exports of Canadian grain through United States\nPorts decreased. The port or Vancouver is rendering a\nreal economic and national service. Bui how much greater service can be rendered when the vast wheat areas ot\nthe Peace River district have rail facilities? Can one\nestimate the development which must result when the\nPeace disgorges its millions of bushels through the only\nnatural outlet, that of the Pacific Great Eastern througn\nto North Vancouver? The Review, North Vancouver.\nResidents of Cumberland should be glad that\nVancouver is going ahead so last and that it is\nprimarily due to the grain shipment that such\nsuccess is due. Cumberland watches year by year\nthe number of grain boats coming into the port\n, of Vancouver for the product of the prairie prov-\n| inces. More boats mean more coal and with the\n| very best steam coal in the Cumberland area,\n' business in \"black diamonds\" is sure to increase.\n^ With development work proceeding at No. 5 mine\n! this district will be In a better position than ever\ni before to meet any demand from increased ship\nI ping using the port of Vancouver.\nSchool Trustees\nReceive Report\n(Continued from Page On\u00ab)\ni\nMinto\nj Saturday from Vancouver visiting his\nj parents at Crowton Farm, where his\nOver one hundred of the inhabitants of Minto and district were the\nguests ol Mrs. R.
