This yard does a large business and provides op.e of thejimportanj payrolls for the city, alorijfotffahe,big lumber mill and, bajCHnC- the cold storage plant and thVC. N. Railway shops. Employment at the canneries is only seasonal and while it Is valuable as an asset to the city it is only a summer business. As a terminal point Prince Rupert has the offices of the railway oompan? and a big hotel is to be built soon. It is also the administration centre for the provincial government of a district larger than some provinces of Canada. Taken all in all, the prospects of the city are excellent, especially In view of the confident expectation that the western outlet for the Peace River country for both railways will be here. Experimental Station A federal institution that works in conjunction with the local fish houses, the fish meal plant and the canneries and cold storage plants of the district, Is the fisheries experimental station. This is operated under the Biological Board of Canada and is already proving of great benefit to the industry and is much valued as a civic asset, bringing prominent scientists to the city and spreading abroad the news of the advantages of the port and district. Outstanding at the present time in the city is the development of the new power plant told about elsewhere and the opening of which this issue of the paper is Intended to help celebrate. In addition to that the city has good schools, steadily Improving and extending streets, fine churches, a number of modern business buildings, a court house and provincial administration building that is second to none in the province, hotels that cater well to the business offering, a city library and reading room that are really live -institutions, and now comes -a movement to establish a gymnasium which will probably be incorporated in a T&M.C.A. building within the next few months.

While Stewart is bound t become an important t iw.i und Prince Rupert will alwu.Vo io op. rnte in her development-, the .su.ire-nacy cannot be taken from the first port established and the nujuial one for the establishment of u smelter to serve the whole district. Part of this district to be served wUl be the huge Interior, including such places as Urtc, Hazelton, Sttiithers, Telkwa and Burns Lake. Prince Rupert Is the pivotal point for oil the mining development of the north and will benefit largely by Its development, while co-operating to forward It In every possible manner. The lumberlni; of the ooaat Is largely In an undeveloped state. Just nt present the only mUl operating steadilv in the immediate vicinity Is the big Boy Lumber Com pany's big plant at 3?al Core within the city limits. There, are othsr mills in the neighborhood and much logging is going 'on. In the very near future pulp mills will be operated In cu-operatlon with the lumber mills, taking care of the Inferior grades and making possible successful development of the timbering interests of the whole district. There is plenty of timber, plenty of water, pleuty of power and all "that is needed now Is capital and energy directed by brains to !oit."i.-i .mi probable future. The men and women arc people of the finest type, a most important factor, and the young people growing tip .vie beginning to look to their home town as a possible future for their activities. Under these conditions nothing can hold Prince Rupert back. Healthy growth and steady development follow as day follows night. 4.r 4 INDUSTRIES NEEDED IN PRINCE RUPERT The following are industries that Prince Rupert needs: Pulp and paper mill. Flour mill. .

Pjince Rupert is the coming port To which all eyes are turning; While local folk still do their bit And for that time are yearning. Prince Rupert Is a city founded on a rock. While the winds may blow, and an occasional storm beat upon her, she stands firm and makes steady progress. Rupert, Rupert, rah, rah, rahl Olvlng the pessimists the ha, ha, ha! Oh well, why should not Prince Rupert be the greatest little city In the country? She has everything that goes to make a, city great and the greatest of these is her young men and women. Power Is what we all need power to our arms, power to our brains and sometimes power to our right boot. There's nothing small about General Manager Little except his name. It was a Jolly party yesterday at the Falls, "frightfully Jolly, dont you know." Now that Prince Rupert has plenty of light the people ought to become enlightened.
