Adanacs Win Softball Championship Of Anyox With the series tied up with one win apiece, the Adanacs, holders of the Beach championship crashed through to win the Softball Championship of Anyox on Sunday last. 130 Level, Mine Champions, put up a real ball game, but a lead of six runs, set by the Adanacs in the first inning, was just too much for the underground men. Though the Mine boys got two home runs off Ion, Dodsworth of the champions did that to Windle all by himself. The muckers and miners slowly ate up the Adanacs lead; but too slowly to win. The game ended at a score of 7-10, Joe Antrobus, shortstop for the Mine, deserves gold medals for the brand of ball he has played during the whole series. Benny Windle who probably can be expected to excel in softball just as he does in all other sports, nevertheless deserves great credit for his game. Benny is, without a doubt, the most versatile athelete in Anyox The Adanacs who started in the league with just a faint idea that they might become a team to be reckoned with, have shown what a real team fighting spirit can do.

Sum of $30,000 will be spent on the project this year. Part of the work will be the construction toward the Naas Valley from the pre> sent end of steel at Red Cliff about 14 miles from Stewart. All rock work will be handled on a contract basis. By spending $30,000 this year the Consolidated Co. retains its rail way charter, under an agreement with the Provincial Government.

Continued on Page 4 Ducks and Geese Scarce At Alice Arm The open season for ducks and geese commenced on Saturday, and brjght and early local sportsmen of both Alice Arm and Anyox were at their favorite points to take advantage of the unsuspecting birds. The bags around Alice Arm during Saturday were not heavy, Barney Turbitt brought home two geese and Wm. Cummings returned with four ducks. Heavier bags were, however, reported around Anyox. During the week four more geese were shot at Alice Arm, two by Mrs. H. Nucioh, one by G. Anderson and another by B. Turbitt. On the evening of Wednesday August 29th. the Anyox Y. P. A. held a small dance and party in the vestry at Christ Church, in honor of Miss Florence Dodsworth who is teaching school at Alice Arm for the ensuing term; Miss Flora and . Miss Marion Cavers who are leaving for school in the east, and Mr. John Dodsworth who leaves this week for Vancouver to attend the University. The evening, which was occupied mostly with dancing, was one of those successful and entertaining gatherings for which the A. Y. P. A. is becoming known. With a brief farewell address Rev. Abraham presented each of the departing members with pins emblematic of the A. Y. P. A. as small souvenirs of many happy and profitable evenings. Miss Florence Dodsworth with a few well chosen words, replied for those who were being honoured. The Syncopals, who donated their services, added much to a very enjoyable evening. With Mr. H. Lindgren as cornetist and Billy Wilson hitting everything in sight at the traps this orchestra continues to make real dance music. Refreshments were served after which the entire company gathered around and sang "For They are Jolly Good Fellows," and on this happy note the party closed. Commencing in early October the A. Y. P. A. will again meet regularly and will welcome all old and new members to the vestry of Christ Church. Loyal Order of Moose Dance Was Very Enjoyable A very enjoyable dance was held in the gymnasium on Labor Day by the Loyal Order of Moose. The music rendered by the Revellers' Orchestra was superb and the delicious plate supper served in the spaoious dining room further added to the success of the evening. Quite a number of people attended this, the first dance of the new season.

Journey of Arctic Rein- Deer Almost Over After a trek of four years across Alaska and the northern corner of the Yukon, nearly 3,000 reindeer were being purchased by the Canadian Government in 1929, are now at the west side of the delta of the Mackenzie River in the Northwest Territories, and wait the coming of winter when they will cross the mouth of the Mackenzie on the ice. Under the direction of experienced reindeer herders the herd began the arduous 1,000-mile journey across the roof of the world from Napaktoolek in Western Alaska to the Mackenzie River delta in December 1929. Early in January, 1934, the herd started on the 70 mile dash across the mouth of the Mackenzie from the west to the east side, but once on the frozen river, it was discovered that, owing to the high winds and blizzards which had prevailed during the winter, large stretches of the ice had been blown clear of snow, and as the deer cannot travel on glare ice it was necessary to make frequent and long detours from the route originally selected in order to get footing for the animals. To still furthur intensify the difficulties, after they had been out for more than 48 hours on the ice a heavy blizzard arose and in the midst of this the deer stampeded back along their trail to the grazing area near Shingle Point where they had spent last summer. Another attempt to cross the Mackenzie will be made in the autumn of this year when the delta freezes over again. Mine Softballers Qualify To Meet Rupert Defeated Beach Team 2-1 The third and deciding game for the softball championship of Anyox was played at the ball field on Wednesday August 29th. From the viewpoiut of the fans, ' probably no more exciting and suspense-filled game has ever been played in Anyox. To call the game air-tight would be an understatement. Both teams functioned perhaps as nearly perfect as any aggregation of humans could. From start to finish the game was Mine Minstrel Troupe Will Give Entertainment in doubt. Though winning the| |Coggin as end men, the show just Three Important Stewart The past month has seen three new and important developments get under way in the Stewart district. Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company's operations on Big Missouri were increased to include the driving of a 2500-foot tunnel from the Day group over Missouri Ridge, with the object of opening at depth the orebodies disclosed by the Province tunnel. United Empire Mine crosscut into its ore in the lower tunnel and found a width of 15 feet of good grade material there. And now the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company has begun its preparation for a start on the Canadian Northeastern Railway. game two runs to one, the Mine can lay no claim to being the better team. They simply got what is commonly known as "the breaks." No criticism could be found with the Beach team and they can certainly lay claim to sympathy in losing the best and hardest fought ball game of the year. Adanacs Defeat Ex-Rupert Both the Adanacs and Ex-Rupert won a game apiece in the Beach championship series, the last game was played-on Thursday August 30th. The game was disappointing after the class of ball that was played the evening before between the Mine and Beach. There seems to be no excuse for Ex-Rupert's loss unless one takes into consideration the fact that several of their players have been playing strenuous ball of late and may have been stale. At any rate the Adanacs very deservedly won the Beach title to the tune of 12-6. City of Greenwood Presents Land To Mining Co. The City Council of Greenwood has given Superior Gold Mines, Ltd. clear title to seven and one-half acres of land situated in the northeast corner of the city, as a location for their 50-ton mill which they now have under construction. The com pany has also acquired 2.2 acres of surface rights from other parties, so they now own approximately ten acres clear title for the mill site. The City Council has also agreed to a fixed taxation of $25.00 per annum, during the time the company maintains the mill in operation, as an added inducement for the company to locate within the city limits. The erection of this mill, with the probability that small operators of the district can have their ores treated locally, is very important to the city, and lo the development of the camp generally. Mr. Harry Bamforth of Chrysan themum Coon's fame, has hinted at another show to be held in the near future. The Chrysanthemum Coons which was presented last spring, was a show in the real minstrel sense and many have been the requests for more entertainment of the same high caliber. Mr. Bamforth, manager of the last show, has under pressure yielded, and the new show Will be presented some time this fall. With Ed. Blundell and Johnny couldn't be anything but good. If the enthusiasm at the Mine counts for anything the show will be even better than last year. r- A Complete Line We have on hand at all times a Complete Line of Men's Wearing Apparel, including Heavy and Dress Boots and Shoes.

September 8, JHH4 BEATTY MEETS SCOUTS Honesty, courage and modesty are the cardinal virtues that make tor success and they should be the Ideal of every Canadian tray, said E. W. Beatty, chairman and president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, ln addressing the Montreal District Scout Council at their headquarters ln that city recently. Mr. Beatty was speaking in his capacity as president of the Canadian General Council of the Boy Scouts' Association and at a function at which he had been presented with a copy of the new Scout song book, "Songs for Canadian Boys." The appeal of this book is to all classes of boys and girls, to adults and to the English-speaking world generally. Some of the finest poems in the language are included, making the book an anthology in Itself. The songs include those common to the Empire, songs of Canada, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, the United States, French- Canada, France, sea songs, sea chanties, scouting and marching songs, choruses and miscellane ous songs. The French-Canadian song group have scholarly English translations hy J. Murray Gibbon. It is a book that would adorn the shelves of any library.

Upper .Garden, and fountain at Kenora Station, lower-—Woodatoek Station ground*. Flowers are among the assets of the Canadian Pacific Hallway. It is the policy of the Company to establish permanent flower gardens at every station along the long line of track stretched across the continent In the very early dars of the railroad the pioneers were too busy attending to the task of opening up new roads to give much attention to flowers, yet even back ln the early days one of the C. P. R. employees (produced a few varieties of flower seeds dn his own plot and distributed them amor&at his friends at some of the stations with the object of starting flower gardens along the line. This took place over 30 years ago, and to-day the Company speni3 a considerable amount producing and distributing seeds and shrubs of all kinds to station agents along the lines. The Company maintains a floral department with (headquarters al (he Windsor Street Station in Montreal. In carrying out this work a great number of trees, seeds and perennial plants are used annually. Suitable trees such as ash, elm and maple, are supplied, and shrubbery such as honey-suckle, lilac, barberra, elder, spirea. welgelia and many other varieties together with a long list of ibed flowers. Vines are also supplied to cover buildings and fences surrounding stations. For this purpose Virginia creepers and ■apanese ivy are considered best During the past thirty yoarg tho encouraging lnflu- n it ini ence of the C. P. R. gardens has materially assisted ln the Inauguration of floral societies all over the country, many of the officials of the Company being members of these societies. It is pleasing to remember that the work in connection vnith the gardens is credited directly to the agents and employees of the station, for it is carried out mostly in their own time, through their enthusiasm in beautifying the stations of which they are in charge. The C. P. R. recognizes this effort and much Interest is aroused by the annual competitions on both eastern and western lines of the Company for the finest station gardens. Extensive layouts do not enter into the contest but the gardens that have shown the most improvement during the year are the ones that carry off the honors. Representatives from the floral department tour the lines each year, sizing up the gardens and deciding the winner. Substantial money prizes are awarded eaoh year. The floral department of the Canadian Pacifio Is constantly in touch with horticultural Institutions, Including agricultural colleges and societies, so that ao stone is left unturned to keep up to the very latest standard.
