Written

by a Member of His Late Congregation

 

The translation of the Rev. H.
R. Grant from Vancouver to
Prince Rupert should be the cause
of much satisfaction the to citi-

zens of the northern city. who
have called a man whose worth
they can only as yet surmise.

Vancouver's loss is Prince Rup-
ert’s great gain and the pulpits df
Prince Rupert have received a
great addition in the “Sky Pilot.”

As a preacher Mr. Grant stands

men, In the great big man, there

of the cause. He is @ man, every
inch a man. He loves to wateh
the baseball game, and at curling
has made a name. He loves the
joke, and loves the joker, and in
all things he is practical,

But not only in Mr. Grant has

Prince Rupert gained & great ac-
quisition, bul also in Mrs, Grant
r1lhave they gained one whe will

 

of all with whom she comes in
contact. She is a worker and has
a wonderful gift for heading the
young, and is an admirable help
to Mr. Grant in his work.

Mr. and Mrs, Grant are blessed
with a family whom the people of
Prince Rupert will love as warm-
ly as did the people of St. Paul's
at Vancouver.

Accompanying the Grants is
Miss Stewart who leaves behind
her in Vancouver a_ record of
much good work well done. Her
place will be hard to fill as an
active worker in Bible class.

Many hearts in Vancouver are
aching because of the parting of
the friends they loved so deeply.
Men have fought great batties for
their land and country, but no
man has done more for the land
he loves than the Rev. H. R. Grant
who has raised men to higher
heights and higher ideals. Indeed
he is a sky-pilot. —H. F.

Local Firm Got Tender

The city engineer and pur-
chasing agent reported to the
City Council that the tender of
the Pacifie Coast Pipe Company
for wooden sewer pipe was low-
est at $670.25, and Handasyde &
Clayton's tender was $677.80. The
Council decided to accept the ten-
der of the local firm in consider-
ation of the faet that there was
only $7.55 difference.

H. G. Helgerson Ltd. be-

Yesterday they advertised in
The Daily News a house for

The result was a quick sale
to one party out of seven
who applied for it. The price
realized was $2,400. Sooner
or later everybody will take
the tip. Advertising is the
