family gathered at the home of Rev.

evening. The occasion wae the cele
bration of the twenty-first anniversary
of the birth of their son. Edward. The
plan for the surprise was oarried out
to the full satisfaction of all, and it
goes without aaying that Ed was sur
prised beyond measure. The evening
was pleaeantly spent In the Indulgence
of games until nearly midnight, when
the guest were invited to partake of
luncheon, which all thoroughly en
joyed. Those present were Mr. and
Mr. Philbrook, Capt and Mrs. Hpogh

Islanders Moving. The rapid rise
in the Columbia for the past few days
has caused eonsk'srable stir among
the dairymen on Sau vis's island and
on the low main laud. Many from
the Island have already moved their
stock to the main land and it ia quite
likely that by the end of the present
week all the stock will be moved to
higher ground, The water le raising
at a rapid rate from 8 to 16 inches
very twenty-four hours and in a few
days longer will be in the streets of Bi.
Helens. Borne predict that it will
come up to the "9 mark this year, and
offer in substantiation of their predio-tl.-n
the fact that there it a greater
amount of snow in the mountains now
than usual at this season of the yoar,
owing to the lateness of the seaaon
and anticipated continued warm
weather, it is liable to come down with
a rush. Meantime people who would
be most affected by such a flood are
preparing themselves for such an
emergency.

able gathering of young people was
