LENGTHY TOAST
Lists

In view of the popularity of)

banquets in Prince Rupert, |
either for entertainment or |
for the purpose of honoring
citizens who may for various
reasons merit some token of
esteem, the following remarks,
evidently from a victim of an
over abundance of oratory at
such an event, are apropos:

‘Some potent personage
should take in hand the long
toast lists at banquets It
threatens to become more and
more a menace to life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness.
An indignant friend has hand-
ed me the latest atrocity.|
There were ten toasts, that to
the guest of the evening being

a mere incident. Before he
spoke sixteen other orators
had had their innings and nine
Ciceros followed him. There
were songs also. Finally the
company brought its labors to
an end by singing ‘O Canada,’
‘Auld Lang Syne, and ‘God

Save the King.’ It seems a pity

to have left out Psalm CXTIX,
which, with its 176 verses,
would have kept the diners

quietly employed until the fol-
lowing Sunday. To cure the
evil of the long toast list I
suggest an appeal to the pro-

vinecial board of health. The
duty of this body is to extir-
pate al! malignant disorders

which undermine the health of
the people. Banquet commit-
tees were unfortunately for.
gotten when the criminal! code
was drafted, the best plan
would be to treat them = as
germs. I leave the remedy to
those who make a study of how
to rid us of pests.”

THE AFTERMATH

Usually the day following Christmas brings with it
unpleasant recollections of friends who have been inad-
vertently overlooked in the matter of Christmas gifts.
Isn't it fortunate that New Year's Day follows so closely
and gives us an opportunity to make amends for our
oversights during the Christmas rush. While the past
week's shopping made very heavy inroads into our stock,
the assortments in each line are practically unbroken.
We have a large range of beautiful things for New Year's
gifts. CONSULT OUR CATALOGUE,
