Snow falls
on mountains

Our cold, wet weather has
een a big disappointment to the
many tourists who have visited
the Horsefly area. One gentle-
man from Vancouver, fieldman
for Hume and Rumble, spent
some time on Quesnel Lake last
year and enjoyed every minute
of it. This year he came up
with his wife and Sunday he
said they never spent a more
miserable and cold three days
than when they were on the
lake this week.

It ig so cold that we even had
a fresh fall of snow on Quesnel
Lake mountains Sunday. Beauti-
ful to look at but ever so cold.

Johnny Sam parted with
$50 when he appeared before
the magistrate on his fourth in-|
toxication charge this year.

About midnight one night last
week Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Soper
went to the police to turn in a
grievance. Both had been
drinking and within a few mom-
ents they were shouting and
calling the police officers names.

The incident ended with
Soper being fined $50 or given
one day in jail for disturbing
the peace, and his wife being
bound to keep the peace for six
months.
