Fifteen Years at Terrace On March 16th Rev. T.J. Marsh

celebrated his fifteenth year as resident minister in this district. He originally arrived at Copl3er City by dog team, having come in from Kitimat. A few days later_he moved to Kitsumkalum, wipers h e ':efftablished h i s first mission. ~Rev. :Mr. Marsh has seen many changes during his stay here. When he arrived there were hardly a dozen settlers in the whole district.

. , . " , .

Increase Prices Increase

Times Better Keep track on the way you

are travelling. Some ways are good, others bad; some clean and ~3retty, others drab and dirty; some lead up others down.

There is a way in:commerce just as there is in ~rowin~ Dots- toes or milking cows. Just now the way is tending upward thou~rh not necessarily to purer atmos- phere.

Dun's Review of business con- ditions shows clearly that prices are mounting up. In the m~ddle of 1921 you could buy all you : needed for a year's sul3plv for $159 but now it costs you $191, a jump upward of nearly 20 D. c.

Last April the figure was $166, but since then the animal, or whatever it may be, has just dug in its toes and determined to mount upward. The rise as compared with a year ago is 12.6 ~er cent; that is, what cost $8 a year ago now costs $9--with one exception, meat, that is down six per cent, yet foodstuffs as a whole rose in price during the year 3 1.2 per cent.

The general statement is troub- lesome. f o r the hoUsewife/"but: the best part 'of it is the par which states that "it is nearly everywhere r_ecognized now that business, with comparatively few exceptions, is experiencing rapid e x p a n s i o l l s . "

R a d i o The conditions encountered in

this country for receiving broad- casting programs are at times very exacting and require a radio receiving set which is callable of detectin~ the very minute signals from distant stations. To meet these exacting conditions a radio receiving set has been developed having two stages of radio-fre- quehey •amplification ahead of the detector tube. This receiving set ,is very sensitive and will re- .ceive broadcasting stations at much greater distance than 0r- diimry sets. This method of amplification is far superior to a u d i o -frequency amulification since the presence of signal dis- tortion and tube noises are en- tirely overcome. With years of experience and much experiment- intr with radio apparatus we are able to judge the proper equip- ment for the best reception so far away from a broadcasting station as we are.

St. Patrick's Day Tea The Mission House, tiazeiton,

was the scene of the Women's Auxiliary St Patrick's Day Tea, which has become an annual event with that body. It was an ex- ceedingly pleasant affair and one which will swell the auxiliary's funds by over $100. The ladies in charge were kept busy early and late. and the guests made a clean sweep of nearly everything edible, while the candy and work stall was 0uite early sold out. The convenors of the various committees were: Candy and Fancywork, Mrs. Hogan, Miss Hogan: Refreshments, Mrs. Wal- ton Sharps, Mrs. Jno. No,rick; Work, .Mrs.-W. W: Anders0a; Shamrocks, Mrs. J. C. K.

Tretheway has l~urchased the shares in the Sunrise mine which were held by Gus Rosenthal, one of the original stakers. As stat- ed in these columns ~ome time ago. W. S. Harris and J. Treth- eway have a lease on the Sunrise and have vlans for its develop- meat as soon as weather condi- tions will permit men to work on the mountain. The vurchase of Rosenthal's stock by Tretheway will in no way affect the develop- ment of the mine and the original plans will be carried out. Nei- ther does the transfer of stock in any way affect the management o f the Stmrlse Mmm~ C6.

Realizing Our Value The business men of Prince

Rupert are beginning more fully to realize the importance to them and to the future growth of their city the development of the great interior country along the Ca. nadian National Railway. Many of the business men are planning trips into the interior, not on one-day holiday trips, but real business visits, in order to get acquainted with the peovle and the resources of the interior. They realize that the interior !must be developed before Prince Rupert can become the city it is destined to become in due course One of the main charges ~iven the deputation from Ruper~ now in Ottawa was to urge upon the Dominion government the neces- sity of greater immigration to the Northern Interior o f British Columbia, both of seltlers and of capital. This policy has for a number of years been advocated by this paper. More people and greater production is the only way in which prosperity can be secured. We wish the Prince Ruvert people the best of luck.

An Appreciation In his eulogium on Dan MC-

Gregor at the funeral service, Rew T. J. Marsh told one or two incidents illustrating th~ kindly clmracter of the deceased which are worth repeating.

Referring to ,the faithfulness which Dan always showed to his friends he said that whilst on the field of battle with his regi- ment Arthur Carr. another well- koown local man, was badly hurt with shrapnel. Seeing this, Dan went to his assistance and at great risk and with much labor he carried him two miles back to where his injuries could be attended to.

In the year 1911 he, Mr. Marsh, was stricken with typhoid, and had to be removed from Kitsum- kalum, where he then lived, to Kitselas, in order to be near a doctor. 'Althhugh then foreman of the tie camp, Dan was most anxious to throw UD his work and devote himself to nursing his "minister and only the in- sistence of the medical man pre- vented him doing so. But on two occasions he walked the whole/distance (eleven miles) to Kitselas and back to visit his sick friend.

Dan was for two years soloist with the renowned Billy Sunday, evangelist, and took considerable interest in musical matters in 'the town and especially in the way of helping church services, his talents being always to be had for the asking.

Farmersare to make application on a form that may be obtained from C. N.R. Station Agents. C.N.R. representatives overseas will endeavor to secure the class of help_ required in Great Britain, Belgium, Swit'zerland, Denmark, Holland, Norway and Sweden. The Governments of these countries stand ready to assist this class of their people to emigrate to Canada, but feel that they should be assured of employment for at least oneyear in order to gain sufficient Canadian farming experience to fit them for going on farms of their own. ,Farmers wllo are able to do so can thus assist in colonization work by engaging help by the year. There will be no charge to the farmer for our service, nor will the farmer be required to make any cash advance for the travelling exl~enses of his help tothe nearest railway station. The information neces= sarily asked for in these application forms, which will be held in strictest confidence, includes: the kind of help required-male or, female--married or unmarried; date required'and for how long; nationalitydesired; monthly wages offered; kind of work offered, etc.

Most of us no doubt think we have plenty of troubles and few luxuries, but we can all be thank- ful that it is no worse. Some of our neflzhbors would no doubt gladly exchange olaees with us~ particularly were they burned out one of these cold mornings and had to travel t ° a neighbor's with only scanty clothing. The home of Chas. Neale was burn- ed on Wednesday morning. Mrs. Neale was alone with the baby and only saved it and the clothes on her back. Mrs. Neale is in poor health and only recently re- turned from the hosoital, Mr. Neale is away teaching school. We trust the.shock and exoosure may not prove too much for her. That our sympathy will be ex- pressed in a substantial manner is a foregone conclusion.
