NEW HAZELTON PICNIC

TO BE HELD FRIDAY

 

‘an the Latest Notes From the
interior Town
(Omineca Herald)

D. McLeod spent a couple of
days in the Bulkley Valley this
week,

W. 8. Haskins made a trip to

Lorne Creek the first of this week
to look over some mining proper-
ties.

L. J. Conkey returned last Sat-
urday night after spending sever-
al weeks with his family in Seat-
tle.

A. M. Ruddy gave a most en-
joyable dance in the Galena Club
on Tuesday evening in honor of
his sister who has been visiting
him for a couple of weeks.

Mrs. Anger entertained Monday
night at progressive bridge in
honor of Mrs. Sawle who is leav-
ing on a trip to the East. The ~
prizes were won by Mrs. L. B.
Warner and Neil Melver.

Geo, Clotheir came down from
the Silver Cup Sunday morning
and reports progress very favor-

 

able at the mine.

The tenders for New Hazelton’s
post office building have all been
sent to Ottawa and the various
contractors expect to hear about
the 25th of July as to who was
the fortunate bidder.

Arrangements have been made
for holding the annual general
picnic in the recreation park at
the hospital on Friday, July 24th.
More definite announcements will
be made later.

In many parts of the Province
people have been endeavoring to
solve the unemployed problem.
The New Hazelton district is par-
ticularly fortunate in this respect
as the unemployed are almost nil.

The respberry crop is now being
gathered in by the people of the
town. The crop this year is heavy
and the rains of last week helped
it wonderfully.

Smithers ball team came down
Sunday morning and played
league games that afternoon and |
on Monday with the New Hazel-
ton boys. The visitors put up
miserable exhibitions of the game
and lost both:
