Posed $500,000,000 dam on the
Fraser River, has proposed the
smelter be built in conjunction

“Negotiations are in the early
stages,” added the Sun, “But
figures mentioned in government

be 720 feet high, to produce
3,600,000 horsepower.

your Christmas tree this year.
Demand for Canadian trees in

the U.S. is greater than ever
before and that is sending the
price ot trees here up by 25
cents or more. But if two or
three dollars seems a high tag
for a tree, look at what is hap-
pening in Venezuela. North
American and Europedn families
there have already paid $35 each.
