Wood’s orchestra played for the big
dance in Langley last week when 1,000
old-timers congregated to step to tunes
of long ago. Dr. Woods was instructed
to play no airs younger than 25 years,

the throng, which included Premier

requested that the Sumas land own 3"
petition, affeeting reclamation assess-

minion House, according to Hansard of

of the Minister of Justice to a question
I asked on April 27 concerning a peti-

nor-in-Council has reached a decision
in this matter.’’

Hon. Ernest Lapoint (Minister of
Justice): ‘‘I am glad my hon. friend
has raised this question. At the time he
made the inquiry I hesitated to give an
assurance that the papers would be ta-
bled, because I was not sure that it was
