Acknowledgement of Good Job It is fitting, we think, that some acknowledgement should be made in these columns today of the splendid work that has been carried on for twenty-one years by Arthur Brooks-bank as secretary-treasurer of the Prince Rupert Chamber of Commerce which position he relinquishes at the annual meeting tonight. Mr. Brooksbank through these years has come to be looked upon as a sure source of information, sage counsellor, faithful keeper of the records and, indeed, almost the mainspring of the .Chambqr. To many of us he has become a. dynamic institution, always to be depended upon to see that things got done and that . the work of the Chamber was kept running smoothly. There need be no hesitation in saying that he has played his part in any and all of the accomplishments the1 Chamber has achieved. Not only the Chamber but the whole community and district, therefore, has benefitted from the faithful stewardship he has accorded to the office which, after having desired to relinquish for some time, he now is giving over. The Chamber is indeed losing a good servant, with the retirement of Mr. Brooksbank but has been 'fortunate in finding to succeed him Edward T. Applewhaite, a comparative newcomer ito f mice. Rupert but no stranger to "this district and its problems and con ditions. It ,is to be confidently expected that he will carry on with competence and zeal and an enthusiasm befitting the important office in promoting the interests of the community.

It is better for us now and will be better for us in the days to come if we endeavor to trust, respect and mutually support our' Allies in the common fight rather than to minimize or criticize their efforts. We would be a little more humble and a little less prone to pick faults with our Allies if we considered where we might be today if it were not for those friends who, like us, are fighting-valiantly and, on the whole, most effectively.
