Big Indoor Sport Meet Was Highly Successful A large crowd of adults and children attended the Indoor Meet • sponsored by the Community League. It was undoubtedly a success from start to finish, and much praise is due to the officials, who worked strenuously and enthusiastically to achieve this. It is hoped that this initial meet will lead to others equally successful. A considerable time was spent on the children's events and some keen contests were seen, and of course many amusing incidents, especially in the pillow fights. Jimmy Dunn had no difficulty in defeating H. Dodsworth in the final of the youngsters' event. .McDonald disposed of Dresser after the latter had made three recoveries from the upside down position. Arthur Dodsworth had to fight hard to win his final bout. Throwing the basketball attracted much attention and, to the surprise ci all, t!;u largest nutribgr of consecutive baskets were scored by "dark horses," the only Senior "A" star to shine being Clarence Dresser. I The rope climbing was certainly a popular item with the children and it was not the biggest ones who could climb best. Young Robert Dresser winning easily. Master Wenerstrom, the smallest entrant, amused the crowd with a very fast climb to the ceiling. Following the presentation of last season's Football, Baseball and Basketball trophies there were two displays by the girls' and boys' gym classes, both being neatly carried out and much credit is due to Instructor Gillies for their succees. The exhibition wrestling bout between Charlie Karen and L. Pel- konen was one of the chief items of the evening's program and Karen proved somewhat difficult for his big opponent to handle. Nearing the end Karen strained a muscle severely and had to retire from the contest. The men's relay race resulted in a narrow win for the Smelter team over the Orphans. Speedy Stan Ellison "headed" past first in the final lap. The despised bones of the turkey on Thursday are playing a big part on many dinner tables today.

T. A was held in the United Church Hall on Monday the 15th. After the usual business meeting, Mrs. .McMaster gave an outline of the project system, that is being advanced in many schools today, showing how the subjects taken in the early grades can be co-related by such a system. The programs of this year are tainng up the educational system of emphasizing the duties of the various departments. In accordance with this Mr. Don McLeod addressed the meeting on "The Board of School Trustees." The talk touched briefly on the duties of the Minister of Education, Inspector, etc., leading up to the Trustees. After pointing out why the school trustees are appointed instead of elected, Mr. McLeod gave the duties and jurisdiction of the school trustees and also gave a resume of the various phases, outside of day school, that they spon- ser, such as night school, with its eight branches, transportation of Mine children, etc. Another thing, not generally understood, that was taken up, was that the trustees have no power to interfere with the course of study outlined, nor the choice of text books. ln conclusion a few minutes of discussion was indulged in regard to the talk. The meeting closed with "God Save the King," after which refreshments were served with Mrs. McMaster, Convener. The Anyox Amateur Orchestra gave selections from their repertoire at the General Hospital Wednesday. The musio being much appreciated by the patients. Develop Biggest Ore Bodies Definite word is expected in the near future as to the plans being made for the resumption of operations at the Esperanza mine. It is learned that the Seattle interests who have' made arrangements to acquire a. large block of stock, do not obtain control of the company. The control is still held by British Columbia shareholders. It is planned to develop the larger ore veins on the various properties when operations commence. On the Alice property there is a vein 6 feet wide, carrying good silver values, also, on the Esperanza is a vein 4 feet wide, carrying silver and gold values, and another vein 12 feet wide, in which gold values predominate. There are also a number of smaller high grade silver veins. Mr. Harry Bowyer has opened an office of the Esperanza Mines Ltd. in Seattle, and is now engaged in arranging finances for development purposes. Assisting him is Mr. Angus MacDonald, who has been associated with the company for several years. The Esperanza Co. now control a total of 19 claims. United Church Mine Christmas Tree The Mine United Church Sunday school held a successful Christmas tree and entertainment in the Mine Hall on Saturday. A bountiful supper was served at 5. 30 and at 7 a programme of choruses, solos, playetes, recitations were given by the children. Miss Maise Evans played a violin solo, she was accompanied at the piano by Miss Dora Peterson. Freddie Calderoni gave the address of welcome and acted as chairman. The whole programme was thoroughly enjoyed by the audience and a hearty vote of thanks was tendered to Mrs. H. E. Doelle who had trained the children and made this splendid programme possible. Many Sport Trophies Presented at Indoor Meet One of the chief items of the Indoor Meet program was the presentation of the various cups and prizes won by the Baseball, Football and Basketball players of last season. The chairman of the A.C.L. Mr. Manning presented the Concentra tor team with the Baseball cup, and Mr. Lindsay the players with sweaters, on behalf of the league. The football cup was received by Mr. W. Watkins, manager of the successful Celts' team, from Mr. Bert Kent. Each member of the team being the recipients of sweaters. The captain of the Celts team Jimmy Elliott, on behalf of the players, presented Mr. Watkins and Mr. Powell with sweaters in recognition of their services to the team during the past season. Mr. W. B. Maxwell presented the men's basketball cups and Mr. George Lee handed out the Girls' trophies. Alice Arm Children's Christmas Tree Great Success Children Enjoy Community League Free Picture The Recreation Hall was packed with children on Tuesday afternoon when Buster Keaton's hilarious comedy "Forward March" was shown. To enable the Mine children to attend this show given by the A.C.L., a special jitney service was given them. The kiddies were presented with candies and it must have been a very happy aftTiioou for all who attended this function. Billiard Handicap Won By A. Wright The Beach Pool Room Christmas Billiard Handicap tournament was won by A. Wright who had no difficulty in accounting for Jack Ion in the final game played on December 22nd. Walter Jones was third. An entertainment by the children; a visit from kind old Santa Claus; refreshments; followed by a dance, made an evening brimful of pleasure for the large audience that attended the Alice Arm children's Christmas Tree and entertain • ment held at T. W. Falconer's hall on Tuesday evening. Wee Ronald Evindsen opened the evening's entertainment with a recitation. The programme that followed consisted of Christinas choruses sung by the children; a humorous sketch; pianoforte solos, vocal solos, Hag drill, etc. At the conclusion of the entertainment, benevolent old Santa Claus burst into the hall, and to the delight of the children, dealt out his presents with a liberal hand, and many exclamations of joy resounded as the wrappings exposed the bountiful gifts. Following his exit, refreshments were served to both the juvetiles and adults, and soon the hot coffee ham sandwiches, cakes, etc. were reduced to only a pleasant memory. The hall was quickly cleared and the enticing strains of the Alice Arm orchestra, quickly filled the floor with dancers, who stepped the lively fox trots and sedate \\valtZ8 until all were tired. The splendid performance of the children in their various parts of the entertainment was a feature of the evening, and was the cause of much favorable comment. Considering the short time available for practice, the entertainment was exceptionally good, and great credit is due the Rev. and Mrs. W. B. Jennings, who instructed the children; also Mrs. J, Wheatley and Mrs. O'Connor, who assisted in teaching the children the various drills. For the excellent supper, credit is due Mrs. H. F. Kergin, Mrs. G. Anderson and Mrs, 0. Evindson. Those in charge wish to thank everyone who so kindly assisted in many ways in making the evening such an enjoyable one for the children. It has been calculated that three weeks elapse before the housewife finally disposes of the Christmas left-overs. In this respect they are far behind the men, who can easily dispose of the contents of their bottled goods in three days. Often less. ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD.

E, MOSS, Editor and Publisher. Before the next issue of tlie Herald is printed we shall have left this old year behind and started upon a new. What the future twelve months hold for us no one can foretell, but we hope that fortune will smile on us more pleasantly than during the present year. Throughout the whole period of 1930 a world-wide trade depression has been experienced. Every country and every industry has felt its ill effects, and the smallest hamlet of this Dominion as well as the big cities have suffered more or less. This district has not escaped. For the first time in the history of Anyox, short time has been instituted in order to assist in curtailing the production of copper. Alice Arm has also suffered in the suspension of the development of mining properties, but conditions might have been a great deal worse. We are indeed fortunate, that the Granby Consolidated Mining Smelting and Power Co. decided to carry on and operate their big plant, despite the ruinous price of copper and the difficulty of finding a market, even at the low prices prevailing. This decision has kept over 1000 men from helping to further congest the over-crowded ranks of unemployed, and it has given the necessities of life and not a few luxuries to the 2200 people that comprise the town of Anyox. Yes, conditions could have been a lot worse during the past year, and, in comparing our lot with many industrial parts of the world we have much to be thankful for. Alice Arm, in common with every other silver mining camp throughout the whole world, has felt the ill effects of the low price of the white metal. Development work on several promising properties has been discontinued until better prices prevail. When this happy state of affairs will come to pass no one seems bold enough at present to prophesy. Leading economists of the world are emphatic in their Reverted Lands Will Be Sold On Easy Terms By Government Rapid settlement of 45,000 acres in the vicinity of Vanderhoof and 22,000 acres south of Prince George is the aim of a committee of Cabinet Ministers and Government officials who are dealing with the disposal of lands reverted to the Government for non-payment of taxes. These comprise 2,225,000 in 200,000 parcels scattered throughout the Province. The northern areas already indicated are to be opened first as being considered of the best quality, with good transportation facilities and most easily available for settlement It is understood that the land wil be sold at low prices with small payments, and the balance spread in easy terms over a long period The idea of the committee is to get the idle lands producing, so that they will become an asset to the revenues of the province instead of a dead weight as at present. The Reverted Land Committee will devote its attention this winter to the appraisal of some thousands of reverted lots and small holdings in the Vancouver land district. These can be made eminently suitable for summer homes and fruit, vegetable and poultry farming. They are situated favorably for transportation at places like Bowen Island. Gibson's Landing, Sechelt and similar places. With the extension of the highway system along to Powell River and ferry connection Continued on opposite column statements that the price of silver must be brought up to a higher standard and stabilized, or untold disaster will prevail. Already plans have been made by international economists to solve the silver question and this may probably be accomplished sooner than many of us realize. If it is, Alice Arm, with its large deposits of sil ver ore will be a busy camp, and the low price period will be quickly forgotten. Let us, at least hope that 1931 will see higher prices prevail for all metals and in anticipation thereof we wish that our readers will experience the happiest and most prosperous year of their lives during 1931. rr '% We wish you a Happy and Prosperous New Year s T.

There ire also some excellent holdings in the Lower Fraser Valley, and these will all be placed on the market as early as possible. These decisions are the result of a report made by George Cripps of the Finance De- partment who has been investigating the lands in co-operation with Dr. W. H. Gaddes of the Land Settlement Board. "Good morning, Sir. I'm a Bonds Salesman." "That's all right, my good fellow. Here's a quarter—go buy yourself a square meal." Flin Flon Mine Is Shipping Blister Copper Winnipeg—Nineteen cars of blister copper and zinc have been shipped from Flin Flon mines since November 19, when operations were started in the new smelter. Of these, 13 were billed to the two Canadian seaports, four to New York and two to Toronto. Weekly shipments will continue steadily from the northern Manitoba mine field this winter. The estimated gross profits for 1930 of the Consolidated Mining & Smelting Co. are $7,000,000.00. Of this, about $1,000,000.00 will have been spent on exploration and development of non-productive properties and on large scale demonstrations of fertilizer products.

(6< ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD. Saturday, December 27. 1930 Bennett Will Endeavor To Solve Wheat Problem % R * Ottawa, December 20; (Special | to the Herald). Will there be two emergent sessions of the Canadian I Parliament within six months'? | One was called last Septembt | within six weeks of the election of | Premier Bennett to deal with tin '■ employment. At that time there was a year old and serious but not :: acute problem of farm depression, f Solution of it had been attempt ed by tho western Prairie pro vinces. The months which have elapsed ■ since the September session of i, parliament have not indicated that provincial efforts were successful. Conditions in the Prairie Provinces S are beyond local control. They are predicted upon local crop re verses and upon world market conditions. They are accentuated by conditions in other branches of industry which the September meeting of « Parliament was designed to alleviate: but the farm conditions in , many communities could not be ,, foreseen in September and could not be materially benefitted by the action then taken by the Govern• ment. Premier Bennett, cabling from mid-ocoan, has declared that the position of agriculture in Canada is his lirst concern and that until it is properly adjusted he has no time for official welcomes. What' his decision on arrival will bi is not clear but the impression in Ottawa [ is that he will call parliament together at least a month earlier than he anticipated in order that the agricultural situation may be dealt with. The backbone of Canadian purchasing power is the new wealth brought into being each year by the grain fields of Canada aud until that power is rehabilitated there % can be no return of national pros perky.

The work Is being undertaken in the provinces of Saskatchewan and Alberta. Similar relief in the East is seen in the fact that 550 former employees are now being taken on at the Angus Shops, Montreal, where they will work oa repairs to passenger cars. Bound on her 30,000-mile annual Canadian Pacific cruise around the world which will last four and a half months, the S.S.

Total production of honey this year in Saskatchewan will be over 700,000 pounds, an increase of about 300,000 pounds over the output in 1929.

At the Ideal Homes Exhibition recently held in Edinburgh, Scotland, the Canadian exhibit was awarded the gold medal for general excellence. This award was made in tho (ace of keen competition from more than 100 exhibitors Trom all parts of the British Empire. A preliminary report on Canadian tobacco production shows the 1930 area at 41 391 acres and Ihe production at 36,712,700 pounds, as compared with last year's area or 37,700 acres with an output of 29,780,000 pounds.

No one went hungry and the day was spent in cementing old friendships and the ancient custom of eating and drinking the best procurable.
