hj0LA+f Alberni Pioneer ** Volume 5. Port Alberni, B. C, Nov. 25, 1911. No. 16 I. & N. Railway Company Will SUBSCRIBERS PROMISE Run Excursion For Joint Boards of Trade. The prospects of an early inaugura- lion of a railway train service that Will Ink Alberni and Port Alberni with Van- louver, Victoria and Nanaimo, is caus- ng some interest among the business nen of these cities. Already the Victoria and Nanaimo boards of trade have begun to discuss lome sort of celebration of the event. )n Saturday last the following letter vas received by Jas. R. Motion, secre** Jary of the Alberni board of trade: Nanaimo. B. C, Nov. 15, 1911. Secretary Board of Trade, Alberni, B. C. )ear Sir: The members of the Nanaimo board of trade purpose visiting your city upon completion of the railway, and vould be pleased to have you arrange a date with the port Alberni board that vould be suitable to you, and we will ?et up a good representative excursion. : our quarterly meeting will -be held Ion the 21st inst. we would esteem it a ■favor if vou could let us know on or before that date. W. F. Norris, Secretary pro tem. As the Port Alberni board was to hold its regular monthly session on the following Monday the contents of the letter were communicated to its secretary and after the matter had been brought to the attention of the meeting a committee composed of A. D. Cooper, Charles Cree and P. J. Burde was appointed to meet a committee of the Alberni board and arrange a date and plan of reception for the Nanaimoites. Capt. Huff was appointed chairman of the joint committee the other Alberni representatives being Mr. Motion, C. M. Pineo and H. C. Rayson. R..J. Burde was elected secretary, and C. A. McNaughton was added to the Port Alberni representation. On instructions from the committee the secretary sent the following telegrams: To W. F. Norris, secretary Nanaimo Board of Trade: 'Alberni and Port Alberni boards of trade are now in communication with railway officials as to <Jate of inauguration of service. Wil| be pleased to advise you as soon^as anything definite can be arranged." To H. E. Beasley, superintendent E. & N. railway, Victoria. , "Alberni and Port Alberni boards of trade desire to be informed as definitely as possible of the date of arrival of first train so as to arrange reception for Nanaimo board of trade." The following reply j was received from Mr. Beasley: "Cannot say definitely till inspector reports to the board of railway commissioners. We hope to have trains running about Dec. 1st. We are not preparing for any official opening till spring when we will be in shape to have an excursion by the joint boards of trade of Vancouver Island and the city of Vancouver." It is altogether likely that the Nanaimo Board of Trade men will desire to visit these two towns by the first train, and the committee will continue in existence looking forward to the event. - * lLocal News In Brief A fence is being built along the bound- lary line of the E. & N. railway com- Ipany's property in Port Alberni. Preparations are being made for the [building of a handsome residence for John Kendall on Sixth avenue, south of Argyle. W. R. H. Prescott, Rev. H. H. Lewis I Seale, and J. G. C. Wood were in attendance as delegates at the Anglican synod in Victoria this week. The synod elected Rev. Dr. Roper, rector of the theological college of New York, as bishop for the diocese to succeed Bishop Perrin. C. Braithwaite has opened a law office in the Mclntyre building on First avenue. Mr. Braithwaite practised law in Dawson City during the early days of the Klondike excitement. More recently he was engaged in his profession in Vancouver, being a law partner of Mr. Haney. Mr. Braithwaite is particularly pleased with the outlook in Port Alberni. gramme will be on a more ambitious scale than heretofore, and patrons of the entertainment are promised some surprises. The death occured in Alberni on Monday, Nov. 13, of Jess A. Lindsay, relict of the Rev. George Smith. The deceased lady was a native of Montrose, Scotland, and 74 years of age. She was mother of George and Andrew Smith, of Alberni, and had resided for many ytars in the district where with her highly esteemed husband she found a warm place in the hearts of all good Christian citizens. The funeral took place on Tuesday, the services being conducted by Rev. Prof. Carruthers. The pall-bearers were: A. W. Neill, J. Redford, J. King, Capt. G. A. Huff, J. Wilkinson, T. Paterson. J. Pollock and wife, of Quatsino, were among the up-coast passengers on the Tees on Tuesday. Mrs. Pollock had been on a visit to the east and was met in Victoria on her return by her husband. Alberni. Mr. Stuart has acquired a number of residential lots and will build houses for sale or to. rent. H. Maxwell Clark, traveling representative of the Canadian Highway association, an organisation that is boosting for a Canadian highway from Halifax to Port Alberni, was in town this week seeking support for the movement. He carried a petition and a membership list to both of which he obtained a number of signatures. TO DISCONTINUE TELEPHONES The public feeling of resentment over the attitude of the B.C. Telephone company in refusing to settle the unpaid claims of its contractors who installed the system in Alberni and Port Alberni does not wear off with time. On the contrary, as time drags along, and the telephone people maintain their indifference, the feeling of the subscribers grows more and more indignant. It has now come to a pass where the subscribers are almost unanimous in a determination to discontinue the use of the service unless the citizens who were victimized by the contractors are compensated. Mr. Roseborough who furnished all the poles for the system at a cost of over $1000 to himself has not been paid a cent, and the company continues with impunity to use these poles. Workmen are still without their wages and board bills are still unpaid. The fact that the company paid its contractors all monies due them lets it legally out of the deal, but it is a strange fact that the company did not undertake to see that subcontractors and employees were paid before It acquitted itself with its contractors. It is morally to blame for the losses sustained by certain residents of Alberni and Port Alberni, and these victims have the sympathy and support of the public generally. If public opinion can bring the company to time, it will so be brought. Miss Pringlehas resigned the position of assistant principal of the Alberni public school, and will leave on Thursday next for her home in Wellington. She will be succeeded temporarily by Miss Grace Cox. A restaurant where the best of food is cooked in most appetising style has been opened in the Watson building, Argyle street. It is conducted by Mrs. Molly Barr who served the execellent supper for the Elite dance at the formal opening of the Watson hall. - The restaurant will be open from 6 o'clock in the morning till 10 o'clock at night. Mrs. Barr will make a specialty of catering for parties. G. H. Bevan-Pritchard, principal of the Port Alberni public school, has commenced preparations for the annual school children's concert which will be given on or about Dec. 15th. The pro- Amos Ellis went up to Kyuquot on the Tees on Tuesday. The second lecture of the series by Rev. Prof. Carruthers in connection with St. Andrew's guild will be given on Tuesday evening next. The subject will be ' Canada- From Ocean to Ocean' and it will be illustrated with lantern slides. The admittance charge is 25 and 50 cents. The representative of an English syndicate went down the canal this week looking for a site on which to establish a herring fishing industry'. Charles Stuart, of Calgary, who with his wife is a guest at the Somass, has decided to make his home in Port One hundred and eleven tons of general merchandise was discharged from the Tees at the E. & N. wharf on Tuesday. J. S; Cunningham, who was in charge of L. W. Bick's Port Alberni agency, antTwho resigned on account of the conduct of the Calgary manager who was publishing false advertisements, left on Thursday. In the meantime the Bick office is closed. R. H. Wood aud S. G. Roseborough, Port Alberni delegates, and Leonard Frank and M. Tebo, Alberni delegates, left on Tuesday for New Westminster to attend the Provincial Conservative convention. Everything is now in readiness for the Grand concert to be given in the new theater by the Alberni District- Brass band next Monday night. Some new and exceptionally good vocal talent has been secured for the occasion, and a rare treat is promised. The band will be out in Ml force and in dress uniform. J. J.

Dear Sir,—I have followed with interest your criticisms on a certain class of advertisement that tenders to do more harm than good. The resultant feeling, is that you are evidently a sportsman of the true kind, believing which I am going to offer to you a suggestion regarding a species of larger game that is well worth hunting. I have noticed that for a period covering several years the C P. R. "leading officials," every now and then, are given to making announcements and statements, quoted in the press, which seeing where they come from, are treated with respect, interest and belief by the average reader of the same'. Now, I wish to draw your attention to the fact that so far, excepting advertisements re letting of contracts, the announcements partake of the rottenest kind of illegitimate advertising for the reason that with but few exceptions the above authoriative statements have proved "lies." Alberni was to have had a railroad connection last year, then the spring of this year, then the fall, now the winter, and you cannot get through by rail to either town yet. I write this advisedly as I have many times heard the criticisms on the above policy. The result has been that people, otherwise interested in Alberni district, have become like the old time villagers who at first, when hearing "the wolf" alarm, turned out and eventually when it really cdme, having been misled so often, paid no attention. I see now that Quatsino is to have a railroad " right to Hardy Bay," and the Quatsino inhabitants and others interested there,,, have become quite excited as they used to "once" in Alberni. They too will learn their lesson as probably every six months another statement will blossom forth. But if they wait as Alberni has waited, in proportion to the distance to be traversed, the railroad may reach Quatsino about 20 years hence. Now sir, the above methods are working a hardship on many people who desire to invest in a new town, inasmuch that large numbers have invested in Alberni tin the strength of the railroad promises hoping for development. The people of Alberni have been misled and the outside public have also been misled, and it is currently remarked that the C P. R. would not have done the work that, they have so far done (even yet uncompleted) if the C N. R. had not appeared as a healthy and vigorous rival, liable to get a large share of the business that will be tributary to Alberni. The policy of advertising the completion of the railroad over and over again at different dates can hardly be called a square deal to the public. Why not state that the C. P. R. is building a railroad believed to be near completion, some day it hopes to take passengers, but neither the C. P. R. or anybody else knows when. Yours truly, W. Burdett Garrard. • If we could see the point as Mr. Garrard sees it we would have a grievance so large that the cost of getting it into type would be a serious matter. Four years ago last July this paper was launched in a hurry, the haste being due to a desire to get into business before railway construction was commenced. All these years we have waited, being encouraged the meanwhile by announcements something like what Mr. Garrard makes reference to, for the inauguration of a train service that would make the outside world seem not so far away, but we fail to see where the railway company should be blamed for this. The company did not ask us to come here, and it had no particular benefit to derive from our coming. On the other hand we saw where we could benefit by taking advantage of the railway enterprise, and we must acknowledge the fact that the company cannot, and does not, seek to collect any commission from what gains we may have made or yet may make through the opportunities it has opened and is still opening for all of us. While we are ready to admit that we like the suggestion of going after big game, we must refuse to be drawn into hostilities against the railway company with so little provocation. Had the company been selling us something on the strength of the announcements complained of, the case would be different. We have some appreciation of the amount of trouble the western officials of the road had in securing an appropriation for this work, which at headquarters waa considered premature. The officials who have kept us alive with promises acted, we believe, in the best of faith. They do seem to have been slow at times but they kept plugging away and, now, we have every reasonable assurance that the company will make it possible for Mr. Garrard to come all the way from Victoria to Port Alberni in a comfortable railway coach, without change of cars, to spend the Christmas holidays among us. And, we will be glad to see him with or without a grievance.

HARRY'S POOL ROOM i\V Page 5 ALBERNI PIONEER NEWS Saturday, Nov. 25, 1911 What Is Being Done At Alberni Boarding School. A blue book, just issued by the department of Indian affairs at Ottawa, contains the following interesting information in the form of an official report by H. B. Currie, principal of the Alberni Boarding school, for the year ended March 31, 1911. The school can accommodate fifty-five pupils and a staff of six. The attendance during the year has been the best in the history of this school. We started the year with 46 pupils, 22 boys 24 girls. During the year 9 girls and 4 boys were admitted, each after a stiff medical examination. Several applications were- rejected, because they could not pass the examination. Nine pupils were discharged during the year, five girls and four boys, leaving our present roll fifty; twenty- two boys and twenty-eight girls. The attendance has suffered very little from sickness or other causes. The course of study as set forth in the rules of the department is largely followed. Three teachers have been in charge of the class-room during the year, and while the changes have in a measure interupted the work, good progress has been made in each class and every subject. Since last annual report our cleared land has been fenced all around with 54 inch, ten strand 'Page wove wire,' with iron gates to match. This fence has proved a great comfort to us, in keeping out the stock, which in other years broke in, destroying a large portion of the crop and garden. During the year an acre of new land has been cleared up, and is about ready for crops. The proceeds from the garden were not so large as we expected. Adverse circumstances prevented early planting. The season was rather dry for most crops and an early frost hurt us very much, killing the potatoes and nearly all the garden plants. The stock consists of two horses, three cows, three head of young cattle, and about forty chickens. Excellent results have been obtained from cows and chickens. The boys are instructed in the care of stock and poultry, milking, all branches of farm work—cutting wood, teaming, gardening, painting, shoe repairing, plain carpenter work, and baking of bread, for which our boys took first prize at the local exhibition. The boys also care for their own dormitories, and most of them are expert fishermen. Last year we packed ten barrels of salmon. j***-* The girls are taught sweeping, dishwashing, dining-room work, dormitory work, cooking, baking, sewing, darning and mending, in fact all lines in connection with good plain housekeeping. Moral and Religious Training.—This is a phase of the work we believe in doing well. Not only do we endeavour to train our pupils to be honest, loyal citizens, but we strive to give them such instruction as will give them a good knowledge and a strong faith in the Sacred Word. Upon such a foundation we trust they will build a superstructure honourable to the builder. Twice daily devotionable exercises are conducted in the home. Daily religious instruction is imparted in the classroom. One service and Sabbath school are conducted every Sunday. Many of our pupils will put to shame white children with much better opportunities in Bible knowledge, The health of this school during the past year has been good. There have been no deaths in the school during the year. At the time of our last annual report one girl was suffering from tuberculosis. The doctor said she would not live two weeks. She was isolated in a tent, given plenty of fresh air and kept on a special diet (plenty of eggs and good milk) kept out of school, no work, and to-day she takes her place in work and play with the other pupils. She is fat and strong, shows no sign of her her former trouble, and is apparently a cured girl. During the year we had one case of pneumonia, one case of jaundice, one boy wounded by being impaled on a knot of a log; several scorfulous sores to fight, and at the present time one girl is suffering from a swollen gland in her neck; but is apparently doing nicely. In each case where necessary, isolation and special dieting are adopted. During the year our school was disinfected with formaldehyde. Carbolic acid and carbolic soap are used liberally in the bath, disinfectants are used in the scrub water. Chloride of lime is much in evidence. Our school being on a good elevation, we have a splendid opportunity for drainage, which to Indian pupils is an all important matter. Ample gflod food is always provided. If a child shows signs of losing in weight, special attention is given to that child's food. Good and suitable clothing are always provided. Hygiene is taught in the class-room, and in the open air the pupils are 'put through drills and movements to develop lungs, limb and muscle. The principal recreations are football, running, swimming, boating, fishing, wheeling, swinging, and walking. Outdoor games are encouraged as much as possible. When weather will not permit, all sorts of indoor games are resorted to. Our lantern has proved very useful in providing many pleasant and instructive evenings' entertainment.. Most of the ex-pupils are in the immediate vicinity, and a greater part of the rest are located at differents points along the Alberni canal. Most of the ex-pupils are doing well. The girls, as a rule, are at home with their parents, or get married. Most of these girls make good housekeepers, and keep their homes tidy. The boys work largely in saw-mills, fishing at the canneries, at road-construction, and at carpenter work. Most of them make good wages and have nice homes, dress well, but are inclined to spend to excess when they have money. But even the poorer class of the ex-pupils are superior to the old Indian who has never participated in the advantages of our boarding school.
