The friends of Miss Laura Gee will be glad to learn of her safe ar- rival in Vancouver where she has .gone to spend a month with her sis- ter, Dr. Evelyn Gee‘. Unfortunately, Dr. Evelyn was recalled to the hos- pital to take the place of the head .doctor who had suddenly taken ill, immediately on Laura’s arrival. This necessitated a change in their plans :but we hope for the doctor a very :speedy recovery and a pleasant holi- day for Laura.

The potatoes will benefit greatly by the rain com- .ing just when it did. Since “The farmer feeds them all” country and .city alike appreciated the downfall.
