a

MEMBER
A.ac.
Queen
Charlotte
Service
.
.
.
A
local
businessman
who
received
an
order
from
the
Queen
Charlotte
Islands
at
the
first
of
this
week
found
that
he
would
be
unable
to
make
delivery
of
goods
until
the
next
boat
leaves
nearly
two
weeks
later.
The
present
schedule
is
particularly
unsatisfactory
as
far
as
Mas-sett
is
concerned
and
the
suggestion
is
being
made
that
it
would
be
much
better
if
a
change
could
be
made
whereby
all
Island
calls
were
made
on
the
one
run
north
from
Vancouver
with
a
stopover
of
the
steamer
in
this
port
long
enough
for
the
filling
of
orders
before
she
starts
back
south
again
via
all
Island
points.
Of
course,
the
ideal
set-up
would
be
a
vessel
plying
direct
out
of
Prince
Rupert
with
which
it
would
be
easy
to
give
at
least
a
weekly
service
to
all
Queen
Charlotte
Island
points
from
Prince
Rupert,
the
nearest
mainland
port
and
natural
trading
centre.
Meanwhile
the
present
service
is
a
matter
of
just
complaint
both
for
the
people
of
the
Islands
and
Prince
Rupert
in
spite
of
the
fact
that
the
operating
company
appears
desirous'
of
doing
the
best
it
can
under
existing
difficulties
including
lack
of
tonnage
due
to
it
having
had
to
tie
up
one
of
the
vessels
which
had
previously
been
in
regular
service
on
the
Island
run.
Improving
City
Streets
.
.
.
The
announcement
of
the
city
that
necessary
equipment
is
being
purchased
and
that
a
program
of
street
improvement
work
in
some
parts
of
the
city
is
to
be
embarked
upon
is
welcome
news.
It
is
to
be
hoped
that
work
will
be
carried
out
on
even
more
streets
than
these
now
named.
Certainly,
there
has
been
clamor
enough
these
last
few
years
for
something
to
be
done
as
street
conditions
became
rapidly
worse
and
worse.
The
city
cannot
be
expected,
however,
to
make
all
the
repairs
that
are
necessary
repairs
to
damage
much
of
which
has
not
been
the
city's
fault
and
would
not
have
been
occasioned
except
for
the
fact
that
this
had
been
made
a'
base
of
defence
and
supply
for
a
world
war.
It
is
fair
enough
too
for
the
city
and
all
its
public
organizations
to
press
for
the
governments
concerned
to
assume
their
portion
of
the
responsibility,
which
should
be
a
major
one,
in
the
rehabilitation
of
the
city
and
its
utilities
which
would
never
have
been
in
the
condition
they
are
today
if
they
had
been
subjected
only
to
the
legitimate
use
of
the
community
itself.
NECESSITY

T.
B.
Black,
at
last
night's
meeting
of
the
city
council
questioned
the
necessity
of
two
delegates
being
sent
from
Prince
Rupert
to
the
annual
convention
of
the
Union
of
British
Colum

In
previous
times

sometimes
merely
