T. Bridge on Wednesday evening last. While it was definitely known that our popular and ever-courteous telegraph operator Mr. Wm. Lawson would be l«a\\ing soon for the purpose of doing "his little bit" for the country as a member of His Majesty's forces, there were others present who may be entering the Service if circumstances favour their desires.

The meanest man this side of well is the man that'll kiss and then go and tell, Parliamentry candidate-Gentlemen, you twit me with being a turncoat! Years ago I supported this measure, Then I had a reasos. But now, gentlemen, I have lost my reason! And he wondered at the laugh that convulsed the meeting. The Ottawa Morning Citizen says: "Since the imposition of the war tax on letters and postcards, the volume of mail matter j posted in Canada has decreased by about 30 per cent. The war | tax was expected to add a little over fifty per cent, to the post office, but, in consequence of the economy practiced by the publie in the matter of saving on letters etc , the increased revenue has: been considerably less than an- \\ ticipated. "In the first four months of the »peration of the war tax the department's revenue has increased by $1,100,000, or about. 30 per cent., as compared with the corresponding period last year A large part of this increase, however, is due to the sale of stamps for cheques, money orders, etc. The minister of finance estimated Lst session that the war tax would bring in an additional revenue from twenty to twenty-five million dollars. Present indicaiions are that the special tax will not aggregate more than half the amount. The net result cannot be exactly determined, in view of the fact that there is no means of ascertaining what the drop in revenue would have been had no extra tax been imposed. Lillooet War Fund At the public meeting held last Tuesday evening in Santini Hall the disposal of the balance in band left from the Gun Fund \\\\a'. fully discussed. The following motion was made by Dr. Christie; lhat the balance of monies now on hand and promised to the Fund shoula be forwarded to the British Red Cross Society, seconded by Mr. Bellamy tke motion carried. There are still several amyunts which have been promised by j different parties as donations to the Fund, which are still outstanding, and the committee would be pleased to receive the money as soon as possible so that this Fund may be closed. On Tuesday a public meeting was held in Santini Hall for the purpose of taking further steps in connection with the organization of the Board of Trade. Considerable interest was taken by the goodly number prese.it in the matter brought up for discussion. It was clearly recognized that the success of the whole undertaking depended upon the intelligent interest shown by the individuals who would form the rank and file of the membership. The main decision arrived at was to canvas the district for members so as to embrace ail who had any interest whatever in the development of the town and district of Lillooet. The meeting decided to pest- pone tbe election of the Committee until it, could be seen wh© would be available from the list of members after the district had been thoroughly canvased. The officers elected on October 1st at the formation of the Board of Trade will hold a meeting in the near future and endeavor to make satisfactory arrangements for the further unfolding of the scheme. The Hon. Secretary W. T. Bridge will meanwhile be glad to receive any communications verbal or written from any who may be interested in the new project. Mining News The total proceeds of the street collections in and around Lillooet on Trafalga day, collected by Mesdames Christie, Bell, Asselstine. and Le Mare in aid ef the British Red Cross Society ameunt ed to $68.95 Amount collected by W.

Lewis in the generous use of his auto. Mr. A. Ferguson of the Pioneer mine was in town this week. Larkins: You see things in a different light since you married, do you not? I ought to. There were seven lamps among the wedding presents! Uncle—Now, Billy, you will always find birds where there are trees and wo^ms where there is earth. Can you tell me what you would expect to find where th«r«isfish? Billy-"Chips." C. P. Dam is endeavoring to have a road built from the main road to his property on Cadwallader creek. The auto on the Bridge river road is suffering a small break down but will be running full swing in a day or so. O. Carlsan, miner on Bridge River arrived in town this week on the way to the coast. He is very optimistie concerning the Bridge river section. The Compressor is now installed at the Pioneer mine, and it is expected that drilling will be commenced about the middle ®f next week. W. W.

A certain editor recently re- cei ved from a lady some verses, daintily tied up with pink ribbon, aid entitled, "I wonder if he'll miss me?" After reading them he returned the effort te the sender with the following note: "Dear Madam. If he does he ought never to be trusted with firearms again." THE PROSPECTOR THE PROSPECTOR, Published in the interest of Lillooet District A. E. Luuwig, Manager. OCT. 22. 1915. Much interest has been aroused by the recent publication entitled "How to finish British Columbia Wood," which is being circulated under the direction of the Minister of Lands. Numerous requests for copies are being received, not only from within the province, but also from the prairie and eastern provinces, and already it has been found necessary to issue a second edition. In addition to the lumber companies, applications are coming in from architects, builders, house decorators, carpenters, manual instructors in schools, and others interested in the use of wood. The manner in which the pamphlet has been received by the public indicates that the use of wood for interior finish of homes, offices and other buildings is a subject calling for much attention. Copies of the publication will be mailed free, so long- as the supply permits, upon application to the Forest Branch. Victoria. Interesting matters are touched upon in a report recently submitted to the Hon. the Minister of Lands from the Vernon District. The summer has been abnormally wet, but the early spring, light snowfall and dry spring made a bad hazard until the middle of May, when until the end of July heavy rains safeguarded the situation. With the advent in August of dry weather the vegetation rapidly became parched, and fires started to give trouble, but the conditions improved as the nights became cooler, and early in September rain put an end to all danger. Seventy - two outbreaks of fire during the season, with but slight loss, are recorded, and mention is made of the increasing interest shown in forestry protection. Much clearing was done by settlers under permit, the season proving very favorable. The opinion is expressed that the lumber industry, in view of the conditions, has shown wonderful activity. Thirteen mills have been running fairly regularly; those in the Okanagan supplying boxes and crates for the fruit trade, as a result of which employment has been given, and the machinery kept going. Approximately three hundred men have been employed at the mills, and a somewhat smaller number in logging operations. Orders for sev eral million feet of fir for snowsheads on the Coquihal- la branch of the Kettle Valley Railway have been given The whole district has benefitted by the operation of ithe Kettle Valley Railway, and will do so to a far greater extent when the above mentioned branch is connect- jed up an opened, completion | of which should be made by i November. j WATER NOTICE Land Lease Notices STORAGE Take notice that Robert Ruddock whose address is The Grange, Lytton, B.C., will apply for a licence for the storage of 250 acre feet of water out of Saluwi-sin Creek, also known as Four-mile and Baillie Creek, which flows Westerly and drains into tlie Fraser River, about 18 miles north of Lytton.

The beauty of the B.C. pan- pelling, doors and intertor finish material was, therefor, specially featured. Heavy Douglas fir timbers were also shown, and the fact was emphasized that Douglas fir is not only superior to long- leaf pine," its only competitor as a structural material, because it gives somewhat greater strength combined with twenty per cent, less weight, and in much freer from sap. This latter point is important on account of the tendency of sappy southern pine to dry rot. Proof ot the durability of British Columbia red cedar poles were shown by sections of poles. still sound which have been in use near Vancouver for over a quarter of a century, in fact, ever since the completion of the Canadian Pacific Raiiway. The nine principal grades of British Columbia shingles were placed in the form of sections of roofs. The effectiveness of the exhibit was beyond question, and drew attention once more to the need of continuous missionary work in the East on behalf of the forestry products of British Columbia.

Paint manufacturers were impressed with the re- WATER NOTICE Diversion and Use ROYAL- YEAST MAKES PERFECT BREAD markable way in which this wood sets off the various stains and varnishes, and were anxious to obtain fir samples for displaying their products. The showing of B.C. doors and and of the thicker varieties of shingles was also very effective.
