that he has had included in the

a few days ago and will remain

Altogether there are some 350

COMMITTEES NAMED
TO RUSTLE EXHIBITS

Graham Islanders Take Up Rupert
Fair Project with En- 7
thusiasm.

 

That the east coast of Graham
and Moresby Islands and Skide-
gate Inlet will be to the front with
exhibits at the Prince Rupert ex-
hibition next September was de-
termined at an enthusiastic meet-
ing held in the school room at
Skidegate last Saturday night.
Good live committees were ap-
pointed and judging from the
tone of the meeting every effort
will be made to have splendid ex-
hibits of the various resources
of the islands at the fair.

After an informal talk the
meeting got down to business and
Mr. J. L. Barge was appointed
chairman. Mr. A. Richardson,
secretary of the Lawn Hill! ex-
hibition, gave an outline of the
committees that should be ap-
pointed, also stating that his so-
ciety had appointed him to act
on the advisory board of the
Prince Rupert exhibition from
this district, which he trusted
would meet with their approval.
Mr. Richardson was adopted
unanimously by the meeting to
act_on the board.
Remarks were
chairman, A. J.
Johnston, H. W.
Fraser, E. N. Valentine and
others, and all agreed that the
Prince Rupert exhibition would
be an excellent opportunity to
advertise the islands by sending
a first class exhibit of their re-
sources that would make the out-
side public open their eyes,

The following committees were
appointed with powers to add to
their number: Mineral—E, M.
Sandilands, A. J. Gordon and T.
R, Davey. Timber—E, Girard, H,
W. Fairbairn and C, P. Johnston,
Fisheries——E, N, Valentine. Agri-

Educate your children musically
Start with the

Edison Phonograph

An appreciation of music is as essential as tech-
nique. The world’s masterpieces are on Edison
Records, done by the greatest artists. You can
play them again and again, until you have
familiarized yourself and your children with
the sort of music they ought to know—classical
and popular.

Stop in at your Edison dealer’s and
have him play some Blue Amberol
Records. They will delight the
family.
