Abbotsford Hunters Have Mixture of
Good and Bad Luck on Cariboo Trip

Bob Stevens and Bill Groat,
Matsqui, and Ferd Matthews of
Abbotsford had a fair run of
both good and bad luck when
they went into the Cariboo coun-
try on a hunting trip. They

secured a good-sized deer and
enjoyed some excellent fishing
but their good luck left them

about that time and two of the
men were forced to return home
by bus when their car broke
down,

The three men left Abbotsford
for the Cariboo Oct. 15 and made
their first stop at Soda Creek
fellowing a 300-mile trip. They
cast their lines into McLees Creek
and were rewarded by some
excellent catches of good-sized
fish. About 10 days ago the
weather became quite chilly; the
feel of winter was in the air
and the men figured that it was
about time to start their return
trip. About that time Mr. Mat-
tkews shot a deer, and with the
animal safely stored in the car,
the party headed for Abbotsford.
Threatening weather finally
turned to snow (five inches of
it) and to make things worse, the
transmission on the car broke at
@ point near 100-Mile House. Bob
Stevens was left to look after
the car and the deer and the
other hunters took the bus and
returned to Abbotsford. Mr.
Stevens will return home as soon
as the car’ can be repaired.

While in the Cariboo, Mr.
Matthews secured a jade chisel
and two ancient Indian arrow-
heads to add to his large collec-
tion. A

Secure One Deer

Art Woods, Charlie Arnott and
Wonie McMutter, have returned
to Abbotsford after a successful
hunting trip to the Cariboo, dur-
ing which they secured a good-
sized deer. The deer possessed
on exceptionally good set of ant-
lers, which the hunters intend to
mount.

Now in the Cariboo on an ex-
tended search for deer and other
Seme are Bill Hay, Butch Mer-
rick and Eddie Walton. They
left by car on Sunday morning
and are not. expected to return
until Nov. 7. It is the second
Cariboo trip of the season for
Mr. Merrick.

HUNTINGDON

-On Sunday afternoon Mrs. P.
H. Dawson entertained at tea in
honor of her daughter, Lieut
(N.S.) Helen Dawson, who re-
turned from overseas service on
Saturday, having been aboard the
lle de France.

Mrs. Fraser York: and Mrs.
Fleming motored to Chilliwack
on Sunday.

Miss Frances Burton, R.N.,
spent a few days with her par-
ents, Mr. and-:Mrs. Jack Burton,
before leaving for San Francisco.
Her brother, Staff Sgt. Max Bur-
ton, is now on his way home
from Manilla.

ed some sort of a record by com-
pleting the last Phase of his
course, then passing his test suf-
fering from a fractured skull.
What a man. He reports that a
training run in Mr. Harris’ car-
rier the day before, made him
feel much better. Spinning on
the concrete in Abbotsford and
scientifically missing a frame
building by two inches at 20
mph. quite took his mind off the
fracture. :

Another training highlight was
a smart bit of vehicle recovery
involving two A.R.C,.’s when one
(crew Gilfillan and Waterston),
skidded off the road and took
to the bush, was hauled out by
the other crew (Glindinning and
Backer) and got underweigh be-
fore the O.C. had time to come
up from the head of the column
fe see what had caused the de-
lay.

All being well we will perform
our first bit of post-war ceremon-
ial at the cenotaph in connec-
tion with the Legions Armistice
Day parade. The ceremonial
Party is now in training and
shaping up well.

Weir's Rexall Pharmacy

The other day one of our farm customers
commented, “Electricity is one thing I buy
that hasn’t gone up. It pays for itself many
times over through the man-hours it saves.
It’s sure cheap.”

Yes, progressive farmers everywhere are taking
full advantage of their cheap electric service to
speed up and lower the cost of production,
When you realize that one kilowatt-hour of
electricity will do as much work as eight
can do in one hour—and costs an aver
only 2.2 cents—
