Atherton Hates To Leave Canada OTTAWA Resignation of Ray Atherton, United States Ambassador to Canada, came as a complete surprise to members of the Embassy staff here. For five years he had been the longest resident within recent memory. He will leave September 1. "I hate to leave Canada-Just look at my view" he told a press conference. The Embassy looks out, over the Ottawa River. "As a matter of 1act, this has been my second home". Mr. Atherton has Just returned from a holiday visit to Jasper. Kaien Co-op Accnrdine to reports from up the coast there Is likelihood of Earl Warren, the Republican vice-' presidential candidate, and his family visiting Alaska this summer on a fishing trip. This was recently announced by H. A. Benson, the territorial lattor commissioner. AIR PASSENGERS To Vancouver Miss E. Mc-Nab, Miss K. Shannon. F. Ingram, W. E. Drake, N. W. Has-sey, R. Booth, M. C.

Shall I give him the same old exvuse?" tre, such as has been the .case here for many ' years. The announcement of Famous Players Cana- dian Corporation that it is to erect a new first-run moving picture house here at a. cost of some $125,-000 is, therefore, very gratifying. Having gone on so long, even through the boom war years, w ith only the one theatre, the decision to build the second house at this time and, at the same time, keep the present one in operation, is an - evidence of the .company's confidence in the future here, a confidence that has become very much more definite in view of projected new industrial developments and the expansion of existing ones. As suggested, the establishment of the new ' theatre, official announcement of which is made to- j day, will fill what citizens at least have considered a iong-felt need and 't is another happy omen for the future of Prince Rupert. THANSCANADA HIGHWAY IE RESOLUTION on Improved Transportation T adopted at the National Liberal Convention ; in Ottawa earlier this month contained a clause calling for the completion of the TransCanada ; -Highway. This project has been widely discussed for years and will eventually be carried out. The same difficulties are present in this question as were present when transcontinental railroads were : built. The geographical spread of the country necessitates the investment of huge amounts of ; money ' in these projects, amounts which if ex- ; pressed on a per capita basis are many times higher . . than they would be lit in any ofher i country where JUST ARRIVED Fisheries Exhibits Attract Interest H.

A PORT DAY THOUGHT PORTDAY, one of Priqnce Rupert's leading summer events was celebrated Thursday, but despite the advantages of perfect weather, good organi- zational work and fine co-operation on the part of the Royal Canadian Navy, it could not be termed an entire success. From public reaction, it appears that its failure lay in its inability to provide the entertainment and diversion which the vast crowd that thronged the MARGARET McLEOD OPTOMETRIST In New Offices ROOM 10 STONE BUII.DINO Mew Phone blue m , DR, P.

Appeals for entries were made weeks in advance of the gala, but preliminary entries were few. Port Day officials who hoped for on-the-spot entries were disappointed. Definitely there was a lack of interest among the fishermen and boat owners as a whole. And if Port Day is to be the success it deserves to be, in view of the amount of effort that is put into it and the justification for some sort of marine celebration in this hopeful port, it is the fishermen and boat owners who must help to do it. Prizes for the events ranged as high as $50, plus handsome trophies for the winners. While this cannot be considered big money, it certainly is not chicken feed, either, to look at it strictly from the commercial angle. The commercial angle however, is not the right one, sinee the prizes are not meant to be remuneration for work, but incentive for pleasure. An unsuccessful Port Day leaves behind a feeling of frustration which as entirely unnecessary if those who have the equipment only had the will to make it a success.
