Drive Is Nation Wide

ANY work on the part of the Associa-
ton Against the Prohibition Amendment
which does not have for its object the in
creasing OF the liberal strength in Con-
gress is largely waste of time and
money - because Congress alone has
power to legislate so as to bring relief
from the present laws and the bad condi-
tions that have resulted from then," the
memorandum to state branches and active
members reads I'VE have, therefore,
planned a concerted nationwide drive to
build up organizations within the next
few months, i'll as many congressional
districts as possible where there is con-
siderable wet sentiment, but which are
now represented by Congressman who
vote dry"

P.,T.,A. Meeting

At the January meeting of the P.-TA., the treasury showed an increase of $71 for the gym fund. s46. from the Alumni basket ball game and $25. from the Sisters and Brothers Society. A report from MT. Gurr, P.-T.A member of the Board of Control, indicated that the preliminary work of the Board is progressing satisfactorily and that actual building opera tions will begin early in the spring. The subject of helping pay rent for the Rink for basket ball practice was discussed. but the As- sociation went on record early in the year against using funds for rents and no action could be taken. Individual offers of financial as- sistance to the team were made by
 
 members present.
 The program consisted of a reading, "The Highwayman." by Marjorie Johnson. an address, How a Student is Made" by H. P. Corser. and Community Singing with Mrs. Hagie at the piano. Re- treatments were served in Miss Larkin's room. The program com mittee consisted of MT. Cochrane, Mrs. -Shumway and MT. Nelson, and the lunch was furnished by Mrs. Ned Lemieux, Mrs. B. Y.

 Weather conditions are good After an unusually heavy snow fall early in September, warm rains and open weather took most of this off, and a spell of zero weather setting in about Novem' Der 1st, froze the side streams and many of the crossings in the main Stikine, and insures good ice fol winter travel.

The Wrangell sentinel., 1925-01-15

Inspector T. W. s. Parsons, of the provincial police, who has been spending several days in the city on police work, says the Dease Lake section will be the scene of a great gold rush as soon as the snow goes of in the spring. Since the story of the gold finds came out last fall possibilities of the creeks in the district have been gon over, and the concensus of opinion is that they will merit a seasons prospecting.
 Gold Pan Creek, which is said to be in the center of the new field, is about S2 miles from Telegraph Creek, and there is very fair wagon road running from the trading center on the Stikine to within a few. miles of the finds made last summer. It will be one of the most accessible fields opened up in the history of the province, and hundreds can be counted upon

 sible of Any Camp Ever Opened Up in North
(Prince George [B. C.] Record)

going into the Dease Lake section who would not give more difficult sections a second thought.
 The management of the Hud- sons Bay company is so much inn pressed with the possibilities of the Dease Lake section that it has made arrangements to open an ho- tel and trading post in the vicinity of the new finds. The transports tion requirements of the district will be looked after by provincial company which has made arrang- ments to operate line of trucks on the road from Telegraph Creek.
 The Dease Lake section is not a new one in placer mining, as a number of claims have been workd in the past, but it is fairly large district, and there is no dis position on the part of those fa- miliar with it to discount the claims made by the discoverers of gold last September.
