A. Ken PGE, became effective at the manager of the province-owne Asked about a possible successor, the Premier said the board of direc- tors of the PGB had not met lately and, therefore, he could say nothing about the resignation. HOLMAY PLANS But it is well known that Mr. Ken- nedy consented to stay on only to see the PGE linked up with Prince George. That has now been done and Mr. Kennedy has already made plans for leaving the railway and heading east for a long holiday. During his four years as general manager, the PGE sprinted forward. During the past two years alone, total business has jumped 52 per cent. It was during his time that the railway line was rehabilitated and completely re-equipped with diesel locomotives.

ONE JOB YET One job remains unfinished. Al- though the link to Prince George from Quesnel was officially opened the first of November, the railway still hasn’t received permission from the Board of Transport Commis- sioners to exchange freight and pas- sengers with the CNR at Prince George. A technical error in last Septem- ber’s application has been corrected, however, and approval is expected within a few days. One of the big unknowns is how much freight will come from the 80- mile Quesnel-Prince George exten. sion. Mr. Kennedy had expected a freight train every two days but most of it would have been lumber for ex- port and this trade has slumped badly within the last few months. Trade between Prince George and Vancouver is expected to increase greatly. At present Prince George and its hinterland does more than 90 per cent of its business with Edmonton Lac La Hache News CAROL WATERS, ten-year-ol® daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jim Waters broke a bone in her shoulder while playing ball on the school grounds. Carol was taken to the hospital, and is doing very well. TWO MEN at least have faith in the little settlement of Lac La Hache as shown in the enterprise of John and Jake Voth. These young men have installed an electric power plant which now supplies power and lights to most residents within the area. The rates for this new service are considerably below the cost of oper- ating an individual plant and no fuss and bother starting engines. The two Voth brothers also operate a thriving garage business. All those WE HEAR that a lot of the hunt-/in the district wish them success. ers who left here Sunday. ot stuck!

Accidental Verdict In Hunting Fatality Ashcroft — The hunting-shooting death of G. B. Duller Sunday, Nov. 9, one mile south of Lone Butte was reasoned by a seven-man coroner’s inquest jury November 24th at Dwyer’s Funeral Home, Kamloops to be “accidental, with no blame at- tached to anybody.” The jury, however, attached the recommendation that the 18-year- old lad who accidentally fired the fatal shot while emptying shells from his rifle, not be allowed to use any form of firearms until such time as he is qualified to do so.
