SUPPORT HOME INDUSTRY

a natural resources in lumbering, fishing and mining are
second to none and our future prosperity is unalterably at-
tached to these assets. Every person, not only in Prince Rupert
but also in the Skeena and Buikley Valleys can do their bit by
giving their mental and physical support. Pull for the lumber
industry—boost for the establishment of a pulp plant in Prince
Rupert. Take pride in the quality of our sea products and tell the
world. Give the mining industry that support and optimism that
leads to greater things. When arraging for next winter's fuel re-
quirements remember that you have a local industry already
established producing the highest grade article offered on this

It does pay to buy those advertised.

|Dr. Large with a view to having
him carry out the work within the
|appropriation of $500 which had
been set aside in the estimates this
;year for medical examination of
| pupils,

| Dr. Large, in his letter, pointed
out that the amount of time re-
quired in making the necessary
jexaminations was such that he
could not consider accepting less
j than 50c. per pupil. This was a fig-
| ure which had been accepted for
|years and had not been increased
leven in good times.

Last year the doctor received
|$560 and the assisting nurse $150.
{On the basis of 50c. per pupil for
ian estimated
| the coming year, the cost would be
| $650 whereas only $500 had been
| provided in the estimates.
| Trustee Fulton moved and Trus-
|tee Brooksbank seconded that a

interview Dr. Large and explain
the whole situation to him. After

George Bancroft’s new Para-;

Flesh,” showing as the mid-week
feature offering at the Capitol!
Theatre here, is the story of a
swashbuckling sea captain who led
his men in riotous assaults upon the
nobility in the days of Russia's 1917
revolution, It is a tale of carnage
land gunpowder with a _ delicate
Ithread of golden romance inter- |
itwined with the gusty excitement
jof the picture’s action.

See how much better
You will feel . . cys |, The smasing events which fol
lowed immediately upon the assas-

evacuation of Russia's royal palaces
by noblemen and aristocrats form)

HER...
... FOR THE SAME BABY

This is what Mrs. Albert Bolton, of Toronto, writes: “Our
little girl, Margaret Jean, was nursed for the first few
months, but this did not satisfy her. I had heard about Eagle
Brand and decided to try it. She took to it right away and
there has been no trouble since. Her flesh is firm; lovely,
straight limba, good bone development, and she is so con-
tented. Last September she won third prize at the Canadian
National Exhibition, against 102 entrants.
