"Typically Hearst-Like" may be adequate explanation pf the Seattle Post-Intelligencer's story yesterday about a break between Great Britain and Canada over the transportation home of the crew of the wrecked halibut boat Kiltuish. The editor or rpnnrfur ro. sponsible 1 for such . - piffle .... must surely have pleased his master for sucn srun is nis lavonte line of propaganda. It looks like the wish may very likely have been father o'f the thought in this case. -Mr. Hearst has been noted for some time, especially during the last war. as an' anti-Britisher. It would no doubt give him a go.od deal of pleasure If there had been such trouble as was suggested. The most of Britishers and Canadians, however, will undoubtedly come to the conclusion that a mountain has been made of thing a good deal less than an-mole-hill. The chief interest in the thing lies in its ridjculousness.

Than the present, there is no time of the year when a community can look dirtier and more uninviting or cleaner and purer. Undisturbed, winter's accumulation of dirt .and debris hides all thatJi clean and fresh. Washed off and carted off It reveals a panorama little thcNvorse for the wear and tear of the rigorous months. . .'! Every 'property owner, householder and .business man should ense an overpowering duty in the spring of the year to make hid buildings and grounds fit into nature's picture of cleanliness and freshness. And the performance of this civic duty costs little in time, expense and effort. It is the little thing that ' counts. A rusty can can mar a yard; a new coat of paint can "make" a house.. Undesirable neighborhoods are known by the cans they keep, desirable ones by the well kept lawn they keep. Nothing better tells the character of a community and .its people than the size of its public dumps. So the town one wants to live in is busily engaged these days in clearing away the wreckage left by winter, covering up 'the scars itnd helping nature mend her wounds. H on Second Avenue. ''While the site chosen for the erection of this old pole may not have proved a satisfactory one. this In no way detracts from the value of the pole Itself. It being a very fine specimen of what la now a lost art of the natives of B.C. This particular totem pole was one of the oldest on the Queen Charlotte Iilands. It may Interest some of your readers to know a little of Its history. Years ago. before the' advent of . Umj white; man. wars "were not Infrequent between the' Indians of the mainland and the Haldas of the Queen Charlotte Islands: alternate raids being carried out between these various tribes. During one of these expeditions the village of Illellan near Tow Hill, on the north' shore of Oraham Island, was burned by raiding Indians of the mainland during the absence of the Haldas at their fish ing camps on Massett Inlet. I visited the site of this old vlllane In 1809 and was particularly Interested to see this solitary pole. It stood. a silent witness of less peaceful days with the marks of the burning still (upon It. completely hidden by large. j trees which had grown up around It. Judging from the .size of thtsoe trees. I considerably more than a hundred years , must have elapsed since the raid took j place,--so long that the actual story carved on the pole could not be verified by any living Indian. ! Regardless of its unique history, 'Prince Rupert may consider Itself, for-jtunate to possess such an Interesting relic. A similar pole of less antiquity I was obtained by Oxford University : where Its value Is fully recognized. As far aa "giving It .a good .coat of paint" Is ( concerned as suggested by 'your art critic Jn a yesterday? editorial, I -if this Hf done? J would heartily" en dorse his suggestion that 'the pole be thrown Into the harbour which would then be the best place for It. In place of such drastic measures, I would suggest that the services of a native craftsman bo obtained to touch up the carving with colors as near as possible to the original colnrln idone In the case of the totem pole 1 standing on the adjacent hill.
