In the old days party support-
ers were. given government jabs
for faithful service. But in these
enlightened days of (efficient?)
civil service there are no jobs for
the faithful, but there are any
number of commissions, royal
and otherwise, and they pay
party friends much better; there
is less work and a great deal
more fun and jov-riding. So
much for that particular reform.

There seems to be an impres-
sion abroad that the Indian who
was recently burned to death in
his home in Kispiox was destitute.
Such however, ‘was not the case.
The dead man was in the Hazel-
ton Hospital fur some time and
was making a. good recovery.
He left gf his own accord and
contrary to the doctor’s instruc.
tions. He -had also received:
relief regularly from the indian
department.

“Further Scout Movement
A. meeting was held in the

for the purpose of further de-
veloping the local Boy Scout
movement. The turnout : was
not as large as had been honed
for, but considerable business
was disposed with. F. M. Dock-
rill was in the chair and the fol-
lowing committees were appoint-
ed: Rev. J.S. Brayfield, chairman;
F. B. Chettleburgh, sec.-treas.
Wearne and Mr. Gowanlock
were appointed as Round Lake
representaitves- on the Scout
council, while F.B. Chettleburgh,
Corp. I. Bryce and J. P. Wheeler
were appointed as Telkwa repre-
sentatives on the eouncil. It is
hoped that useful training and
tuition: will be given the bovs of

summer, and the movement is
worthy of the co-operation of
young and old alike.

Gn Tuesday night the Council
of the Boy Scout Telkwa Troup,
met at the home of Rev, J. S.
Braytield and drew up a program
for the coming summer in respect
to training of the boys. All the
boys are rearing to go and it
looks as though the movenient is
off. to a good start. °
