Captain Noroutsos, who received his command very shortly after joining the Canadian Pacific ser- vice, came ashore in 1911 as super- intendent, and has now been assist- aut-manager for two years. «He has seen the small, old-fashioned fleet of early days grow into the magnificent flest of steamers that ply under the "checker, board" house flag, to-day, a fleet that is, without doubt, the finest coasting fleet in the world, and one at all times just a step ahead of the re- quirements of the traffic.
"Little I thought," he BAYB when making application to the Canadian Pacific, in 1901, for å position as à senman that I would return to Great.

Pleading guilty to a charge of allowing his launch to be under- way without a certificated engin eer, Wong Wa, coxswain of the steam launch "Kong-On," was fined $200 by Comdr. B Newill, D.S.O., R.N., at the Marins Court this morning...
