Anyox Honors Dominion Day With Gigantic Celebration Celebrants Carry Fun Over To Following Day Dominion Day, Jnly 1st., the anniversary of the day when the different provinces were welded into the great and glorious Dominion of Canada we live in today was celebrated in Anyox, with as great or greater enthusiasm than perhaps in any other town from Cape Breton, which is washed by the Atlantic storms to the west coast of Vancouver Island, where the mighty swells of the Paoilic roll in a continuous roar. Dominion Day has always been recognized as the big celebration day for Anyox. It is a day when the Community League takes a hold, and provides a day's entertainment for everyone at a nominal pride. On Wednesday everything was favorable for a successful celebration. The weather was ideal, not being too hot, and the moisture stayed up, and at 5 o'clock Old Sol showed his smiling face and everybody smiled too. The "Prince of Wales" arrived at 9.45 a.m. from" Ketchikan With a baseball team, and a large number of excursionists, and the Awake arrived shortly after 10 a.m. with a boat load of merry makers from Alice Arm, and everyone was ready to go. The sports programme commenced at 9.30 with a marathon race for men from Hotel to Mine Apartments and return. B. Kers- lake being 1st. and Komisky 2nd. At 9.45 a.m., marathon race, boys under 16 years, Hotel to Beaoh Mess and return. Theodore Asimus being 1st. and Alex McDonald 2nd. 2.00 p.m. saw the married and single men mix in a football game at the ball grounds, when the single men emerged victorious. There were two baseball games played during the day between Ketchikan and Anyox, the first being at 10.30 a.m. and the second at 6.30 p.m., a report of whioh is given in our sport columns. Tho field sports commenced at 2.45 p.m. Owing to lack of space the list of events and prize win ners will appear iu our next issue: Everyone was in a holiday mood throughout the day and the streets and ball grounds were thronged with sightseers. The Granby Co. gave a holiday to all they possibly could, only skeleton orews being employed to keep the plant running. During the afternoon sports the ohildren were well cared for and they filled their little tummies with ice oream, soft drinks, etc. and toy balloons added greatly to their pleasure The two ball games were especially attractive to local fans, who delight to see our looal players match their skill against an | outside team. Large crowds were Anyox United Church Hold Annual Picnic Children Given a Glorious Time Those fortunate people who attended the picnic of the Sunday School of the United Church, on Friday 26th., with one voice ao- claiin—"We had a grand and glorious time." At about 10.30 a.m. the Azurite left the float for the Sawmill with a load of happy, enthusiastic children and their mothers. Arriving at the Sawmill some wont fishing others explored, and still others enjoyed the clear fresh air by the wat°r. At 12.30 o'clock the gong sounded for lunch, and all the children sat down to a real feed, after which each child went out of the mess house enjoying an ice cream cone. Then the adults enjoyed their lunch. After dishes were washed, all gathered on the wharf, where sports were the order of the day. The following is a list of the winners: Children under six years, 25 yards. 1, Bessie Barclay; 2, Phyllis Blackburn; 3, Mabel Clarke. Children 7 to 10 years, 25 yards, 1, May Barclay; 2, Audrey McMillan; ,3> Dora Peterson.

Egg and Spoon race, children under 10 years, 1, May Barclay; Continued on Page 3 Well Known Anyox Couple Married A very pretty wedding was solemnized in Anyox on Tuesday evening June 30th., when Miss Christina Sophie Owen became the bride of Mr. Thomas Wilton Sanderson. The wedding ceremony was performed at the home of Capt. and Mrs. Cameron at the hour of 8 p.m., the officiating clergyman being Rev. J. S. Braytield. Mr. Duncan Boyd supported the groom and the bridesmaid was Miss Annie McGuire. The wedding march was played by Mrs. Leslie, and Mrs. Cameron gave the bride away. At the conclusion of the ceremony a sumptuous supper was partaken of in thedining room at which over thirty friends of the bride and groom were present. The room wasbeautifullydecorated in pale blue and white, The guests repaired to the Catholic Hall at the conclusion of supper, where they danced until 1 a.m., to the delightful strains of an orchestra composed of J. Varnes, J. Webster, L. Dodd, H. Ward, O. J. Hutchings, P. Stivenard. Both the bride, and groom are well known residents of Anyox and.their many friends wish them all prosperity in the future. present at each game, and some especially first class ball and spectacular play won rounds of applause. The teams were evenly matched, aud all the players worked their hardest throughout both games to win. The dance held in the evening was on a par with the rest of the day. The Recreation Hall was filled to overflowing with merry makers, who wished to round off the day by tripping the light fantastic. It was one of the most successful dances held in Anyox this season, and at 2 a.m. the strains of the Home Waltz brought to a conclusion one of the happiest days Anyox has yet seen. The successful carrying out of such an elaborate programme entails an enormous amount of hard work, not only during the day, but also several days previous, and no amount of praise can be too much for the officials of the Community League for the manner in which they planned the day's programme and carried it through to suoh a successful issue. Great oredit is also due to the numerous good people who volunteered their services in order to give everyone a good time and especially to the indefatigable secretary of the Community League, F. M. Kelley, whose superhuman efforts played a large part in putting over such a large and varied programme without a hitch. Was Pleased With Ore Showings H. T. S. Woolderton arrived on Monday from Vancouver and left again on Friday for the south. He represents Vancouver 'capital who are on the lookout for promising mining properties, and during his stay in Alice Arm he made an examination of the Homeguard. He was very pleased with the ore showings on this property, and expeots to return at an early date. He also looked through the Toric mine, and examined other properties including the Aberarder. Unexpected Passing of Mrs. J. A. Anderson Shocks Community The most tragic death that has happened in the short history of Alice Arm occurred on Thursday morning, when Mrs. J. A. • Anderson passed away at Prince Rupert Hospital. The sad news was received early on Thursday morning and the many friends of deceased received a severe shock, coming as it did, so unexpectedly. Mrs Anderson, who has been in delicate health for a number of years, left home on Monday last for Prince Rupert, to receive treatment aud enjoy a rest. She was taken seriously ill ou the boat, and on her arrival an operation was found necessary, and from which she never recovered, passing away at 3 a.m. on Thursday. The late Mrs. Anderson had been a resident of Alice Arm for the past seven years, and was held in high esteem by all who knew her. Due to her poor health she could not take such an active part in community affairs as she wished. She was, however, always cheerful and optimistic and was ready to give a helping hand to anyone in distress. She was forty years of age, and was born at Gilby, North Dakota. She leaves to mourn her loss, her husband, Mr. J. A. Anderson, and six children, the eldest being only twelve years of age; also a mother, two sisters and a brother, who reside in Montana. The most distressing part iu connection with the passing of deceased is that six small children are left motherless, and the heartfelt sympathy of the whole community goes put to them and Mr. Anderson iu their sad bereavement. Mr. Anderson, accompanied b;' his three eldest children, Gordon, Donald aud Peggy, and also Mr. T. W. Falconer, left on Friday for Prinoe Rupert. The funeral was held yesterday at Fairview ceme- tary in that city. » 1 >.1.4,«.^.«, ♦'■■!»■♦ ■■'♦'«>■»■♦ ♦•►♦'■'♦"'♦'"f | ALICE ARM NOTES j See Al.

Continued on page 4 Anyox and Ketchikan Divide Baseball Honors The Morning Game The local All Star baseball squad, broke even with the visiting Ketchikan balltossers, on Dominion Day. Anyox won the morning game by a five to three count, the Alaskans putting oyer a four to three win in the evening contest. Bruce started on the mound for the local nine, but was considerably off color and was replaced by Cecil Ferguson in the second in,- ning. Two runs were made off Bruce, resulting from two hits and two walks. Cecil was touched for eight hits and one run in the eight innings he worked. Smith twirled for tlie visitors with Ireland on the receiving end. Lane and Halverson each made two-baggers as did Webber and Ellensburg for the visitors. • SUMMARY: Runs Hits Errors Ketchikan 3 10 5 Anyox 5 9 1 INNINGS: 12 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Ketchikan -2 00100000 Anyox 000 12. 2000 Batteries: Smith and Ireland; Bruce, Ferguson and Cody. The Evening Game The evening game was a pitching duel between Krauklis and Ross. The former having a slight edge letting the locals down with four hits and whiffing nine. Rose allowing six hits and fanned five. Cole and Cody made spectacular catches. The feature of the game came iu the seventh frame, when Halverson speared Krauklis long drive right ou the edge of the creek in the left field, tumbling into the creek in the attempt. The majority of those present were of the opinion that the ball was caught, but the umpire ruled the batter safe. Krauklis was the star with the bat with two three- base clouts. Umpires were, Sinclair and Waterman.

Sloan, minister of mines, to Alice Arm has already borne fruit. During his brief visit Mr. Sloan realized that Alice Arm is a camp that will shortly come to the front. He also realized the handicap under which the camp is being developed by the lack of trails to various mining properties, and he has authorized the expenditure of $6200.00 for the building of trails to mining properties, so that this handicap can be at least partially removed, and the development of the camp hastened. It is also gratifying to note that in addition to the above sum, it is probable that a further sum will be available at a later date. This money is being spent by the Mines Department, and is independent and additional to the appropriations annually made by the Public Works Department, for tlie building and maintenance of roads and trails. Granby Co. To Change Development Plan The Granby Co., who are developing the Standard property on McGrath mountain, reduced their working staff during the week. Since development started about a month ago, surface stripping of the ore bodies has been carried on. but it is problematical whether this work will continue. E. J. Conway, mining engineer, J. E. Swanson, superintendent of the Hidden Creek mine and F. E. Patton, chief of tlie civil engineering staff at the Hidden Creek mine visited the property during the week. It is probable that a diamond drill will be installed on the property at an early date. Mrs. P. Whelan aiid family, accompanied by Miss Leitch, left on Tuesday for Alice Arm, where they will spend a vacation for a few weeks. Wm. Robertson, principal of the Public Schools, left on Monday on holidays, which he will spend in Vancouver and interior points. Mrs. Robertson preceded him a few weeks ago. .,...,.....-,.„,.,.,..-r,., \\:^'--^^ ■:-^^':-.:-\\-:-:-'rr r,.^r:.^f^,.:y.^,~-.:^ .;.: ;■;;.-; .'-:.■-.■.-■ -. -.■■•- .;v-73R,.r;; '/v:7"'-v:i' -.-■.:-.'--■* ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD, Monday, July 6, 1925 Alice Arm & Anyox Herald Issued every Saturday at Alice Arm Alice Arm and Anyox $2.50 Yearly Other Parts of Canada, $2.75 British Isles and United States, $3.00 Notices for Crown Grants - - $10.00 Land Notices ... - $10.00 Coal Notices - - - - $0.00 Transient Advertising, 50c, per inch.
