AS the sun mounts higher and higher,
It's rays increasing daily in intensity,
the coal famine ceases to trouble us.
Individual cases of hardship there may
have been during the past winter, but
we have heard of none. In this vicin-
ity we were fortunate in having an
open port; and further in being able to
secure at the beginning of the season
about half supply of coal at price
much below that paid in other places,
The outlook at that time was such as to
induce economy in the use Of fuel; and,
much to their surprise, some people
have got comfortably through the win

There are heroes and heroes. those who
