JAMFS MAY FUND SHOWS GRADUAL RISE FOR WEEK This week a number of further subscriptions for the James May Memorial Fund were received. For the benefit of those who do not know the purpose of the fund, it may be said that, at the instance of requests from the friends and acquaintances of James Jasper May, pioneer of pioneers in the Cariboo and Omineca, who died at Hazelton last December,The Miner will receive subscriptions, limited to one dollar, for the purpose of erecting a suitable headstone to mark the last resting place of the departed veteran, which today is a mere mound of earth, undistinguished among other such mounds. We cannot emphasize too deeply the duty we owe to Jim May. He spent the best years of his life, from those of early manhood until advancing age compelled him to quit the trail, in blazing! the way for civilization. We must preserve the memory of his achievements. Therefore, Raised Nice Amount As the result of the tag day held on Thursday, condected by the local branch of the Red Cross Society, the sum of $44.50 was realized for the funds of the branch. The collectors were: Mrs. Anderson, Miss Cunningham, Miss Goddard, Mrs. Hogan, Mrs. Morkill, Mrs. Sealy, Miss Wattie. These tag days, which are considered by the executive of the branch to be the most effective means of enabling everyone to contribute, will be held on the 2nd of each month, and when it falls on a Sunday or holiday the next day will be observed as tag day. A number of citizens could be seen this afternoon gazing intently at the eclipse of the sun by the moon. send in your donation today. All contributions will be acknow- in our columns.

ORGANIZING FOR ANNUAL PICNIC Committees Appointed to Arrange For July I���Much Enthusiasm Shown A meeting of the Red Cross was held in St. Andrew's Hall on Monday, when the following were elected as chairmen of the various committes to take charge of the arrangements for the annual picnic in Hospital Park on July 1: Collection Committee���Mrs. W. W. Anderson. Sports and Sideshows Committee���R. J. Rock. Grounds Committee���Jas. Latham. Decorations Committee���J. F. Maguire. Refreshment Booths Committee���Mrs. J. C. K. Sealy; Mrs. Newick. Lunch Committee���Mrs. H. C. Wrinch. The sports committee has already commenced active work, and has drawn up a comprehensive program of foot and novelty races, and Indian horse races will be featured. Baseball games will be played, and arrangements will be made for the grand dance to be held in the evening. Cash prizes will be awarded in all contests. The success which has attended the previous picnics, bids fair to be eclipsed this year, if the enthusiasm being displayed locally is any criterion. Each year's picnic has surpassed the previous ones,both socially and financially, and this year's, taking due regard to precedent.should surpass anything of the kind ever held in this district. The arrangements will all be made by capable hands, ensuring the even flow of the proceedings. A record attendance is confidently anticipated, if the weather man will do his "bit" and smile benignly upon us. Among the improvements made this year which should aid in the running of the foot races is a new 100-yard track, which has been prepared in the park.

Conservation of Wheat Must be Continued Says the Food Controller Ottawa, June 8:���Conservation of wheat and the substitution of other cereals on this continent so as to supply great amounts to countries overseas which are dependent upon us must be continued at least until the 1919 crop situation is known. Such is the effect of an announcement by H. 15. Thomson, chairman of the Canada Food Board. He said: "Although the world wheat crop situation at the present time is more promising than that of a year ago, still considerable time will elapse before crops are harvested. Even if the greatest expectations are realized, the fact remains that the world wheat resources are exhausted. Methodist Church Tomorrow, June 9, Rev. R. C. Scott will preach at 7:30 p. m. on the subject : "Conference Echoes." All are cordially invited. What may be regarded as one of the prettiest sights locally is the crab apple tree in the kitchen garden of the mission house. The tree is literally a smother of luxuriant and fragrant blossom.

One man (name on request) reports an average of 33 miles per gallon for 20,000 miles. Surely this is a record that few, if any other makes of cars, ever equalled. It demonstrates the economy of owning and driving a Ford. You can average 1000 miles more travel on Ford-size tires. The saving on oil and repairs is proportionately large.
