Spt. SI, 1927 WELCOME TO VISITOR A great many prominent visitors are in the eKy today. We hope they will enjoy their visit and go home with an idea that this is to say the least "some village." Some call us a "city with a fu-i ture," but we hasten to assure the eastern people that it is a city with a very good present. We have a big fish business, the biggest in Canaiju. We are a grain shipping port, to a small extent a lumber port, a tourist resort, a railway terminal and pretty soon we shall be connected with the rest of Canada by a read, if we back up our member in his efforts. That is saying nothing about being the distributing point for the northwest ceaat. Probably the visitors can tell us of many places twice the size with not half that amount of business. Another thing we should like to tell our visitors is that we lick a)l creation in two things. We have the largest halibut business In the world and the largest fish cold storage plant in the world. That is -something to talk about. The last thing we might say to our visitors is that so far as we know we have no very poor people in Prince Rupert. All make a good living and enjoy life about as mueh as they do anywhere in the world. BRITISH COLMBLVS RIGHTS British Columbia will stand up for her rights under the new- premier just as she did under the old, according to press reports received yesterday. She will follow up the (Hirer policy, whifh was to ask for things which might reasonably be expected to be oV tamed and then fight hard. If British Columbia had those Peace River lands or if the Dominion would agree to give them to anyone who would build the railway, it might be possible to get the railway built immediately. But perhaps the better plan would be for the Dominion Government to build the Peace River railway with a western outlet and keep the lands and otien them to settlers for IRELAND TO BE CONGRATULATED Ireland is to be congratulated on its support of th present government. Of course, it is her own affair but those who take an interest in world affairs and particularly in British affairs are bound to Interest themselves in the affairs of Ireland. Just what would have happened if (he eleetion had turned out differently no one can say. As it is, a few years will probably make a great difference In the state of the country. Possibly by that time there may be some rapproachment between the north and the south with a view to union. BEAUTIFYING THE CITY , Newspapers in a great many cities just now are discussing th .problem of beautifying the cities. It is an interesting theme and one that is worthy of considerable space. We have mentioned it on various occasions. Just now it is opportune because this is the time of year to plan operations for next year. ' There is no reason why Prince Rupert should have rows -of trfeir-albpg rthe streets just like other cities. Many of" (he local streets are. made in such a manner that it it difficult to. plant trees that way: Trees help to "keep the city damp, something that we do not favor. There is, however, no argument againt4awns and boule vards and flowers and small shrubs. Possibly laurel would thrive here. The Railway Company has set an example. of how 'to keep a small garden and doubtless they will extend the operations. What is needed is for citizens to co-operate and make this the prettiest city on the coast. Visitors to Skagway return and tell of the beautiful flowers and vegetables they see there. Those who travel on the trains see the beautiful flowers placed in the dining cars by the members of the Hazelton Horticultural Society. Prince Rupert can' best improve the city by having the gardens around the houses well kept and perhaps other methods of beautifying will then present themselves Engagement and wedding rings of value and distinction Engagement and diamond-jet ueJdmg rtngi, $2J tO $lfO The two nuptial rings you give her can never be replaced. Their purchase is among the most important in life, and should tiy all means be made at a well' known, jhoroughly reputable house. Our rings are of recognued value, fasrubnedtn all the newer settings. And, our standing -in this community, together with membership in the Gruen Watch Mafors Guild, assures your satisfaction.

PUTTING the big potatoes on top of the bag, the choice peaches on top of the basket, are practices which are rapidly passing away. You could turn the basket upside down and see what was in the bottom but you cannot sze the inside of the mattress you are thinking of buying. You cannot tell if the filling is what it claims to be if it is made of new materials or old. And if your mattress mats down and becomes lumpy in six months or a year, it is then too late to seek redress. You can rely on a Simmons mattress absolutely. Its quality goes through and through. The workmanship, the materials inside and out, are the best that can be put into a mattress for the price at which it sells. Simmons make mattresses to sell at all prices from a few dollars to almost a hundred, but the price of each is the lowest at which a mattress of its quality can be built of safe, clean materials and by sanitary methods. Buy a good mattress it will give you more years of greater comfort. But be sure it bears the Simmons label. MATTRE BEDS SPRINGS BUILT FOR SLEEP son.
