There is also an interesting | development in agriculture and horticulture going on in the neigh-| borhood, a clam cannery at Tow} ‘Hill, not very far distant, and pos-| sibilities in gold mining in the | black sands of the peninsula, A} small sawmill supplies the sur-| rounding country with lumber and} shingles. As a holiday resort too, it| has great possibilities. Massett was formerly an Indian village, the home of the Massett Tribe of Haidas. Later the white village was started two miles dis- tant but for many years it was a place with a store and a hotel and | a few small houses. Now it is on the move and it has all the signs of progress.

All that is needed now is to build the twenty miles of | highway from Massett to Port Cle- ments to enable the people of Gra- ham Island to keep in close touch with each other These are the two things badly jneeded at the north end of the isl- and—the dyking of Delkatla Inlet and the building of the road to Port }@lements. The dyking would save the province money and the other could be done a lit#le at a time, first connecting the cannery at Woden River and then cutting across to the }other highway.
