The Cumberland Islander reflects on success not money but virtue. A good husband and father, Christian citizen, and gentleman are true success. It argues thrift, happiness, service, and learning not to whine as the real measure of a life. It also notes expenses rise with income and urges moderation, health care, and pacing life to extend longevity.
The Courtenay Elks Lodge No. 60 will stage its second annual circus May 5 to 7 in Courtenay. Headlining are Conklin and Garrett's Diamond Jubilee shows, Canada's premier tented attraction, traveling on a private 15-car train with 70 foot cars and seven major riding devices per car.
The event employs 175 people during the season and travels the same route each year. Early years faced high license fees and merchant objections, but now the show is welcomed as a source of amusement and education for children, with wide public support and anticipation.
