WALDHO¥, Ont.--The Box Social, in aid of the School Library, was a great success. The Band, ably assisted and provided a very good programme. A large number of outside visitors being present. Seeding is progressing very favorab- ly, and providing the weather keeps fme, a few more days will see it nearly complete. Quite a few acres of new land will be enltivated this year. Tuesday morning, without any pomp the first sod was turned for the build- ing of the Co-operative store. Direc- tors hope to have the building complete in about /two months. L. Euler & Co. are the contractors. On May 8th, Mr Spreng raised his barn, a big crowd of men turned out to assist hin. It is too bad that he lost nearly all his glasses--of course this was merely a pure accident. Waldhof Band, assised by Dryden Brass Band, will give a Grand Concert some day in June. Since this promises to be a great event, you cannot afford to miss it. Look for further particu- lars later. WABIGOON, Ont.,--On Monday last, Ole Lundmark was laid to rest in the Cemetery on the hill. His health failing for some time past, Mr» Lundmark was taken serious- ly ill three weeks ago, and passed peacefully away on Thursday last. With his demise the district loses another of the pioneers. Coming to Wabigoon from Kenora, fourteen years ago, he located in the country to the north, and by hard work and persever- ance, with the help of a loving wife, cleared up the homestead on which the family now reside, raising a family of industrious boys whom he leaves to carry on the work so well begun. The funeral was conducted by Pastor Peter- son, of the Swedish Lutheran Church, who held service in the Swedish tongue at the home, taking St. John 14. 2-38 as his text, and later in English at St. John's Church, with that most beauti- ful of psalius, the twenty-third as his theme. Appropriate hymns were ren- dered by Mrs T. J. Robinson, organist, among then 'Nearer My God to Thee', the deceased's favorite. The crowded church and long proces- sion that wended along the dust road to the kurial ground, were proofs of the esteem and respect with which Mr Lundmark was held by the community. O. E. Norman, A. Johnson, V. Mel- ander, C. V. Nordrum, J. Taft, and J. Collen, acted as pall bearers, and Mrs A. Johnson sang the responses as the coffin was laid in its final resting place. ETON--RUGBY The Ladies' Aid held their monthly meeting at the home of Mrs E. Lundin. There were ten members present, and five vigitors: Mrs C. Currie, Mrs H. Davis, Miss Barker, Miss Mingo, and Miss V. Johnson. Mrs C. Currie, who has come to reside in the vicinity, be- came a member of the aid. It was decided to hold a Sale of Work at the Schoolhouse, on Friday, June 25th; also thal tickets will be sold for the winning of a rocking chair. Mrs Lundin served refreshments and an en- joyable afterncon was spent. The next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs C. Nordlund, on June 10th. Everybody Welcome.

New Co-Operative Items of Interest Dr Smiley, the geologist, represent- ing a Montreal syndicate, got back the other day from a trip to Red Lake. After outfitting at Dryden he then pro- ceeded to Gold Rock to look over the mining situation there, and at present he is reported to be investigating the possibilities of the Sakoose mine. Dr Smiley expressed himself as very favourably impressed with the district which compares not unfavourably with Red Lake itself, and may back his cpinion by securing options there. Dryden Smith also returned Monday last, after completing the assessment work on his own property and on other claims. Dryden is convinced that Gold Rock is as likely to reward the efforts of investors as any mining field in the country, and some of the samples of rock he brought out with him would amply support his judgment in that respect. He is not of those, however, who believe that all the wealth is loca- ted in any one spot, and shares the general interest in the Red Lake de- velopments. He expects to make the trip there within the next few weeks, and see for himself how it stacks up in comparisen with other mining fields in the district, and possibly to secure a claim that locks good in that famous] region. P. R. Whyteck and Ernie Dickson are up at Red Lake studying the engineering problems and methods in operation. Before long the diamond arill will be installed at Contact Bay on the Redeemer and Bonanza Consoli- dated properties, to determine beyond peradventure their values. Word has been received from New York that Mr Wachman is making pro- gress with his plans, and expects to be back in Dryden in June, and will have the diamond drill going as soon as the installation is completed. FARMERS who are disposed to sell their holdings are advised to read the small advt. on page 2, col. 5, and ACT upon it: One of these days you will see an influx of American farmers with capital in this district--and this may be the first step in that direction. Mr and Mrs Thos Graham and baby left for Dinorwie, where they will spend the swnmer. C. M. Depew, manager of Y.M.C.A., Ignace, was a visitor here Tuesday. Mr and Mrs H.

A dance will be held in Dryden Town Hall, Monday, in aid of the Hockey team, who ended up the season about a hundred doliars on the wrong side of the ledger. This is the final effort to raise the balance they still need, and those who do not care to dance might buy a ticket anyway, in the interest of sport in generals . In Sunny California.

The "Bonnie Mac," thoroughly over- hauled and refitted, with Dick Trist as Master and navigating officer, has started work, bringing in the big tows of logs for Dryden paper mill. The cut this year is a large one, for when the ice went out in the spring it left about a million loge floating on the bosom of Gld Wabigoon. {ive predictions of ruin when the tariff Liberal Budget Wins Majority OTTAWA, May 19.-- After over a month of debate, ending in an alinight sitting, the House at 4.05 this morning defeated the Conservative amendment to the budget by a majority of 13. The vote stood 121 against, 108 for the said amendment. There were no party switches. Liberals present went solidly against the amendment, Concervatives went solidly for it. Progressives, In- dependent and Labour voted with the Government. The House then again divided on the main budget motion, with the voting results the same and the government majority again 13. Premier King took the floor in the house of commons during the debate on the budget yesterday afternoon and spoke for three hours, concluding dur- ing the evening session. Speaking on the amendment to the budget moved by Dr Manion, the prem- ier said that the house was entitled to} something in the amendment express- ing the conservative fiscal policy. The fact that the amendment contained nothing of this sort seemed to indicate that the conservatives were not united on the subbject of protection. He des- cribed the amendment as a "milk and water" one. upon the vital matter of tariff at all, but upon a matter of procedure. Dealing with the tariff advisory board, he said that the government had premised its appointment, but made it clear that the tariff in the last analysis had to be settled on the floor of the house. "Let it be understood that we are prepared to take full responsibility for our actions," he continued after stating that he did not think the automobile industry would suffer because of the reduction. Prosperity of Dominion, He quoted figures to prove the pros- perous condition of the agricultural implement industry despite. conserva-: cuts were made. He continued quoting figuers to show the general prosperity of the Dominion, and said he "would like to make it clear" that Canada is in a better position than the States. "Whey do people go there?" called a conservative. "Because the honourable gentlemen opposite advise them to," the premier retorted. He then pro- ceeded to attack conservative utteran- ces, and declared the government had been sustained in its policy several times, and "after tonight's vote the country will take little stock in any talk about this Government not func- tioning. Hon. R. B. Bennett West Calgary, spoke in place of Rt. Hon. Arthur Meighen, who was confined to the home by illness. Mr Bennett claimed that the steel trade in Canada was being ruined by the government, and that the situation was such that there was talk of a plebiscite in Nova Scotia on the question of secession. He took excep- tion to the premier's statement tha: the conservative party had avoided an amendment advocating a protective tariff. Members' speeches had put the party on record. He said Premier King had assured Dr Clifford, former liberal member for Oshawa, that "Oshawa would be looked after. 3 - MUSICAL ECKARDTS Swiss Bell Ringers.
