The building will be steam-heat- ed throughout, the plant being in- stalled by W. Robertson of Van- couver and R. Davidson of Prince Rupert. Owing to non-arrval of fixtures, this plant was not in op- eration on the night of the open ing, but no inconvenience resulted.
 Music for the dance was SUD- piled by Mrs. W. H. Watson at the piano and Frank Bowler at the drums. Al Blackburn, the well known Southern chef, cooked the turkeys brown, and McDougal Williams and Nicholson circulated them around, fifty of them. The interior decorating, which consist ed of festoons of bunting and ever greens and a profusion of Amen- can and Canadian Tags, was done by volunteer committee, Mrs. Anna Miller, Mrs. Mildred Cur tis. Win. Damn and Bob Stewart L. 5. Whitaker, manager of the hotel, who was formerly man. ager of the Bank of Montreal in Stewart, had the first chance in his new position to revel in figures and the art of efficiency, while Scotty Patterson. engineer of the lighting and heating plants, dem onstrated his we'll known useful ness in anticipating emergencies and preventing friction.

NEW KEITHS' HOTEL
 AUSPICIOUS OPENING

Never in the history of Portland Canal was such a gathering as. sembled as attended the opening D: he new keiths' Hotel in Fly ar B. C. on the night of Novem- D f 30, the American Thanksgiv- ing. An effort was made to have everyone register but this was im- possible, as they came in Rocks and | could not be rounded up. The book shows ciose to 200 names and that IS just about one-half of th. number present.
 Although the hotel was far hom being finished, the interior decorations gave ii most attrac- tive appearance, and the guests lacked nothing in comfort. Bob and Mrs. Keith had organized an efficient staff of employees, who wer. assisted by number of vol unteers, and there vas not hitch in the program or an untoward Tn. cident to mar the event.
 The assembly hall was turned into d temporary dining room, the l,fge dining room being utilized tor dancing, and comfortably &C., ,ommodating more than 100 cou. ples. Various rooms on the first floor were also converted into din. ing rooms for private parties, number of which had been organ, ized for the opening weeks in ad vance, the residents of Fiyder es. pccially taking advantage of the occasion to observe one of theiI time-hoaored customs by dining oa the recognized emblematic fowl tn <, luscious, corn-fed turkey. The fe2s tha: although week has el

apsed the residents on both sides of the line are still talking about that dinner and the dance. leaves little to be said in commendation of the combination.
 The festivities continued almost until the tardy winter sun com menced to touch up the blushing eastern range with a morning beauty-tint of carmine, and every moment of the Aeeting night was fraught with enjoyment.
 The new hotel was designed by Bob Keith, and Wm. Fraser, the contractor, and IS built as model of comfort and convenience. MT. Fraser, since he started its con struction, cannot be given too much credit for quality of work and speedy results. He appears to possess the happy faculty of surrounding himself with a crew all of whom have Loyalty for a middle name, and they have ac- comphshed splendid results.
 The hotel Is 76x40 feet in size, two stories high, and contains I6 bed rooms on the upper floor, be- sides two bath rooms, rest rooms, linen room, store room etc. he first floor contains the culinary de- partment, including the largest din ing room in the district, commodi- ous lobby and office, two sitting rooms and large assembly hall.

A WORD A DAY

RE you reading the daily word lesson APP
~ pcaring on this page every day. II not.
- get the habit. It's q useful little feature.
You may know nine out of the ten words and
exactly what they mean. Then again you may
not. Often you will be- familiar with a word
usage and will find that it has several others
less common. Few of ms have too many words
ct our command. The rest Of MS, r.-haps.
TOO many. However that may be, il will be
found worth while TO get the habit Of glancing
over the learn a word a day" paragraph, just
for luck.
Take today's word, for example; II is Dem
agogue.' OF cours. we an know what "dema.
gogue' means. but It's a word whose meaning
and shades of meaning and various modern
usagcs are well worth showing we'll.
"Demagogue, so the lesson says. means "a
poser in politics, one who plays am insinccrc
role to gain public support OF course we
are familiar with that meaning of the word
Also we have before our mind ewes at this

But there is another and more sinister mean
ing of this word "dGnagoguc. II means
Zone who inflames public passions TO advance
himself, a mob leader
This one, like the harmless poser and the
not overly dangerous player of Am insinccrc
role in politics, is found all too frequently in
these days. He is that one who is willing TO
tear down and wreck in order to gain a selfish.
personal advancement or advantage. If he is
successful this one is invariably too smart TO
BE- a victim Of self deception his work is done
deliberately and with a ruthlessness that is
vicious beyond the toughest work OF the safe
blower or the slick-up man. He IS willing 10
lead business into disaster, communities into
depression aud TO pit citizen against citizen
and n~cighbor against ~neighbor for a selfish md.
"Demogogue." It's a word worth knowing
these days in all It's meanings. II is a word
describing the characters Of a number OF men
who have wrecked great nations before our
eyes. These demagogues have been surround
ed by the glamour that goes with any big
achievement, even a great wreck. The lesser
demagogues are scracely less menacing in their
smaller spheres.

THE BONUS, BONDS
AND BURDENS

THE average expression Of the mill rum Of
members Of congress is, in effect
IL am unqualifiedly in favor of the
soldier bonus, but | I'M unalterably op
posed 10 an increase IN thc taxes.
IT'S as nipple as that for the average con
gress. But it is far from being as simple as
that for the ex.soldier who wants and prob
ably is entitled to the bonus ON the one hand.
aud the people who will pay the taxes to pro
vide il. ON the other.
This attitude 50 frequently noted in the halls
of congress isn't confined 10 those sacred pre-
einc.s by an. means. II is quite a common at
titudc among citizens, from the lordly pluto
crat in his limousine to the lowly editor IN his
~fliyver. We are ali IN favor Of the bonus. We
are all Just as unanimous In our opposition
10 increased taxes, like that i-cent ON a gallon
of gas, the extra cent on every letter, the cent
ON every hank check, etc, etc, indefinitely re-
peated.
Congress blandly explains In attitude. Ii
is for everybody. But if the bonus is to be
paid some right respectable sums in annual
millions mus. he provided.
Howl Whence and by whom9
Undoubtedly, eventually by the taxpayers.
Some one must decide how and when il will
reach the taxpayers and flatten them ont.
stop just a minute and figure which method
Won would choose 10 urge on congress, ii you
were President hhfhhik. 'nhHffsS' " sefhla'
