Charles C Il'erroii, well known throughout the north, tells Prince Rupert people today of his unbounded faith in the, mining possibilities of this north country. He enthuses particularly over the Portland Canal district and its future. Also he sees that the development of the mining of this district means an im'mense lot to Prince RuperL It is curious that an outsider should be able to see things which many local people do not see, bill it is true. Many local people do not realize the value of the steady general development of the district to this city. They cannot understand that Prince Rupert, being the terminal distributing point, is bound to bene fit from the growth of the mining camps. Why Not Rupert People Ikvelop Mines? Why is it Prince Rupert people do not take a hand in the development of the mines of the district. Some have already, do"ne To but the number is small and the comparative amount of work they have done is 'almost infinitesimal. We are dependent on American people to make us prosperous. There is no objection whatever to American capital. Our only complaint is that we do not gel enough of it. Our complaint is simply the fact that we allow outsiders to do" all our development for us instead of doing some of it ourselves. If this country is good enough and rich enough for us t6 make money in, it should be good enough forus to help develop with the 4lea of making more money and of helping it to grow. Wrangell Island Soviet Territory. Wrangell Island is adjoining Soviet territory and is of .little use to anyone else. It naturally belongs to them and it is sat isfactory that they have taken possession of it. The holding o territory by people in districts which naturally belong to others has been fruitful of international quarrels and bickerings. It would be a pity to have a condition like that in the Arctic Ocean. Biggest Fishing Year In Many Seasons. This has been the largest fishing year for a long time past. The putting up of a jnlilion cases in this fisheries district means a great deal. It means that forty-eight million pounds of salmon has been packed and sent out to help supply the world's food demand. While, all of this has not been directly contributory to Prince lluperl, the bulk or it was packed on the Skeena and Xaa:. rivers and at Queen Charlotte Islands. It means that the fisher men havehad a great deal of money to spend in the district and ib means that the can tiers have done well and the transportation companies have Pencilled. Haney, Miss M.

Ten Years Ago In Piince Rupert September 20, 1914. MAY SLAUGHTER CATTLE is (ieneral J off re, who is in com 1 mand of the French Army in the (Jreal War, is a man of few words but he is considered one of Europe's greatest strategists The Uhlans, German cavalry men, are proving the most eflec live opponents of the Allies in the (5re.it War.

MEANS OF ELECTRICITY Experiment of Electrio Cage , Tried on Big St. Bernard Dog LY.N.N', M-ass., Sen. 18. Nero, a St. Hernard dog, homeless anil sick, paid the death penally re cently in the electric cage at the Animal Rescue Home on Neptuno M.reet. Aero was executed be cause he had no guardian and running at large, had become menace to the public. The dog was led to the execu lion Chamber after, the hair around I lie neck had been cut close and a steel collar connect 3d with electric wires put around his body. His feet were doused in water and he stood on a steel plate, making a circuit for 1,500 vows of electricity. That death was inslanlaneous was proved when the cage was opened twelve seconds after the current had been turned off. The dog was found lifeless on the bottom of the cage, his eyes open. k Experts who snw the execution said that a similar machine, but larger and with a heavier voltage, could be successfully operated in slaughter houses and un doubtedly would he tried in Chicugo and Kansas City. The execution cage is the Invention of Huntington Smith of Hoslon and ProL William I.

Flight Lieut. E. L. MacLeod and Flying Officer A. H. Hull have been the pilots. The territory covered in the patrol work out or Prince Hupert this , sumjmer has been between Smith's Inlet on the south, Stewart on the north, the Queen CharPotle Islamts, on the west and tidewater of the Skeena River as many as twenty slops included. While the flyers have not been i nl ii ii 11.' fiiitlnrr ,1 a f I all nri ia Mt ! ficers, they have worked in conjunction with t Lev patrol officials activities of tin- season, namely, j a, ,aNc been at the disposal of the breaking of connecting rods!t)ie inspector of fisheries. The which necessitated rurced land- n the east a belt some 400 miles long ami 150 miles wide. .During the season, one machine has been stationed at the headquarters in Prince Hupert and the other at Swansnn Ray. Stewart, the Naas River,' Warke Canal, Stephens Island, Porcher Island, Kiljmaal, the Ecstall anil keena Rivers, Principe Chan nel, flardncr Canal, Swanson Hay, Hella Hella, Rella Coola, Rivers Inlet and Smith's Inlet ire only a few of the points that have been regularly visited. Objects of Patrol To ensure that the week-end close seasons have been observed, that nets no longer than the rcg illations permit have been used and that fishing has not been carried on illegally at Ihe mouths of streams have been perhaps the three 'moid important ob jects of the patrol work which. despite criticism that may be voiced otherwise, officials who know declare has been at once effective and economical. The objects and nature of the patrols have been such that the most of the flying has been done at week-ends and regularly both machines between Fridays and MVmdays have been flying from COO to 1,000 miles with perhaps FASHIONS & FOIBLES by Shirley Sharon w o BUTTIUCX 5353 m For the Sumtntr vacation tUher at the short or in the country, in "the great open spaces" of the Wtst or in the conventional resorts of the East, the sports costume is universal. A London Jury after looking ovp r a collection of French models reached the conclusion that women' dress was becoming standardized. Certainly a sports costu me with its slip-over blouse and wrap-around skirt is a type that one see everywhere on smartly dressed women. The sleeveless blouses are made of the tub silks, silk broadcloth, crepe de Chine, pongee, etc, and the skirt usually of flannel or camel's-bair.

Not Good Season The 1021 season has, not been a ery good one for flying on account of rain and fog but the inclemency of Ihe weather has not caused much interference and all thti work planned for the machines has been carried out. On account of the prevalence of l lie fog. However, l was neces in fisheres patrol work is that many detours can be avoided by the air. Points only a few miles distant by air but which, by water routes are very far apart, can be micbed by air in as many minutes as would be required hours by water. 'Particularly is this the case on the Queen Charlotte Islands. A photographic program had been planned jn connection with Ihe serial fisheries palrol at I'rince Rupert this year hut this was cut short owing to Pilot Officer C. J.
