Grizzly Hunter Reports Successful Trip

B, Sykes returned from Penny, in
northern B.C. Tuesday, reporting ano-
ther successful hunting trip. On this
occasion he was guide for a New York
banker, who returns East with an eight-
foot grizzly skin to his gun. Mr. Sykes
has guided Eastern sportsmen to the|
big game belts up north for the past
ten or twelve years, some of these men
so delighted with their trips that they
come west and engage Mr. Sykes every
year. The traffic manager of New York
Central~Railway is one of these, and
has made arrangements for another trip
this fall with Guide Sykes.

RAILWAY COMMISSION ASKED
, TO SIT AT CHILLIWACK

Producers And Business Men Interested
In Freight Rates Issue Are Urged
To Prepare Evidence

As a result of the efforts of Chilli-
wack Board of Trade it is likely that
the Board of Railway Commissioners
will sit in Chilliwack early in July.
A committee of the Chilliwack Board
has been delegated to bring this mat-
ter to the notice of other Fraser Valley
trade organizations, with a view to se-
curing evidence which might strengthen
the western contention for lower freight
rates.

G. G. MeGeer K.C., provincial gov-
ernment freight rates counsel, T. D.
Trapp of New Westminster Board of
Trade, and C. E. Hopo of Langley at-
tended an executive meeting of the
Garden City Board last week, when
plans were projected. Dairymen, berry-
growers, poultrymen and other local
producers, also businessmen who feel
interested in the issue, are invited to
prepare evidence for this application.

Veterans To Hold Inaugural Dance

Interesting reports of the recent con-
vention held in Vancouver were given
at the regular meeting of the Canadian
Legion by G. Cruikshanks on Thursday
evening. The attendance was encour-
aging, and considerable general business
Was transacted. Arrangements are be-
ing made for the holding of an inau-

veterans relief fund.

Owing to seasonal weather conditions
it was decided to change the date of
the annual memorial services which are
usually held in November. The first
Sunday in August was selected as a
more suitable date, as it falls very
closely to the date of the world war
outbreak, August 4) “Prominent leaders
of the Canadian Legion will likely par-
ticipate in this local observance.
