Crafty Drinkers Used Wax to Alter Liquor Rations A minor change in policy of cancelling the used portions of the 1946 liquor permits has been caused by the sharp and illegal methods used by a thirsty section of the population. The original method of cancelling the used parts of the permits, as prescribed by Liquor Controller Kennedy, was to stamp out the square with ink, using the rubber eraser on a pencil as a stamp. The paper on which the .permit was printed, Mr. Kennedy said, was specially treated against erasure of the ink. Mr. Kennedy underestimated human craitlness. For according to a cleric in the local liquor store a practice was developed whereby certain permit holders covered the permit with a thin coating of wax before it was stamped. It wasn't a matter of erasing the mark, but of merely scraping the wax off the page and presto! an unused permit. Liquor store clerks now punch holes In the used permit parts.

Three vessels were on the pontoons at the dry dock undergoing annual repair. They were the Prince Albert and the trawlers Andrew Kelly and G. E. Foster. The steamer Prince John docked at Prince Rupert carrying 500 tons of ore from the Premier Mine for the smelter at Tacoma. The cargo was the largest ever to be taken from the rich Premier mine up to that date. H. A. Wallace, managing editor of Wallace Shipyards Ltd., Vancouver, which took over the Prince Rupert Dry Dock and Engineering Co., arrived in the city to confer with officials regarding repairs to three vessels on the pontooas Prince Albert, O. E. Foster and Andrew Kelly. A narrow vein of "marvellously rich ore" was struck at Premier Mine. Running through the high grade silver ore, the narrow vein assayed $5 to $10 to the pound, or from $15,000 to $20,000 to the ton. The vein consisted of free gold among the silver ore.

If possible the dinner will be held some time In February and efforts will be made to have one of the Game Commissioners attend and show some of their famous game pictures.

At present, the ship Ottawa Paget is standing on the pontoons having her final hull painting. Disposal of the Ottawa Paget, along with almost a score of pellor will have a 30-inch pitch.
