MUNICIPAL Vo£S. POLITICIANS AND "WORST ENEMIES"

MAYOR HAYWARD and Alderman Todd are candidates of opposing

parties, but both have raised what they call a municipal issue in an effort to attract attention to their campaign.

. One of them says the Government has not given the municipalities a “square deal, while the other cries that "year by year the worst enemy the cities and municipalities of British Columbia have had has been the Provincial Government.”

Of course, no one believes that. F.very- body understands quite perfectly that our worthy Mayor and Alderman are merely talk­ing big” dor political purposes. New candi­dates in the field of politics, in the absence of

i anything better, often have to resort to such * extremes in an effort to attract attention to

themselves and to get mentioned dispatches, as it were.

People who have lived here as far back as the boom days before th< war have a pretty

• good idea that one must look much nearer home : and not across the Bay to find the municipali­

ties' worst enemies. ,„Tke municipalities elect their own governors and manage their own affairs and finances within certain safety limit*

| imposed by the Provincial, Legislature.At any rate, the Provincial Government

! cannot be held to blame for the over-spending on public works and services which the munici­palities indulged in. This over-spending has been the source of their financial embarrassment during the last ten years, during which the tax­payers have been called upon to pay up.

The Mayor and Alderman 1 odd now seek to get around this fact by declaring that the Government is not paying the municipalities enough, but is taking more out of the munici­palities in special forms of taxation that it is paying back.

• One would have reason in assuming that _J these two men in their capacity as civic heads

would be familiar with exactly what the Gov­ernment has been contributing in the way of municipal aid. But because there seems to be

, some haziness on that point it may be well to publish here the facts.

The total revenue collected by the Provin­cial Government during the last fiscal year under classifications that may be said to come within municipal scope was $4,847,693.65. This sum was made up as follows :

» Within Provln-l __ rial Jurl«*1tctloiLWithin la Vnnre*nl*pd Municipalities TerritoryV Motor Tax ......................* 937.439.13 I 3.7.820.00

per cent, of the population is in organized districts. The percentages in organiz(çd districts in the others arc: Manitoba, 93.97; Saskatche­wan, 96; Ontario. 97. Compare these with the 75.86 per cent in British Columbia.

The contrast is so great that it may be stated again in another form. Of the total population of Canada, which is 8,775,884, no less than 8,492,402 persons live in organized districts. Of the other 283,45) who do not, British Columbia has 126,651, or approxi­mately 45 per cent.

All this means that the British Columbia Government hat to carry out administrative functions to an indefinitely greater extent than do the Governments tn the other Provinces* where such administration is generally carried out by local bodies with taxing powers. A correspondingly larger expenditure is, there­fore, necessitated in British Columbia by the parent body.

People who consider these facts will agree that the Government of British Columbia has done pretty well by the municipalities.

Mayor Hayward and Alderman Todd, if they want to get very far iiuitW campaign, had better try to get an issue with something in it instead of trying to shift the blame for the woes of the municipalities on to the Provincial Government.

A dispatch was published across the conti­nent recently giving it as the opinion of

Dr. Charles H. Mayo that within a short time cancer would tie regarded as contagious and would be treated in the same manner as other contagious diseases. I he I oronto Star directs attention to the fact that Dr. Mayo has sent a statement to Dr. George A. Sopher. managing director of the American Society for the Control of Cancer, making it clear that he had been misreperted.

What Dr. Mayo says he did say was that cancer is not now regarded as contagious, but that if scientists discover that a microbe trans­mits the disease, the way will be open for combating the cause rather than the result, as is now the case. Dr. Mayo's words were:

There are several rauaea which con­tribute to the development, of cancer.M lcrobicv Infect Ion possibly Is one of, them. Chronic ' Injury or Irritation la a long recognised cause, anil may give opportu­nity for Infection. Willie cencèr should not he regarded as, contagious. If a microbe is eventually found to he the cause of the disease it will permit of the control of a Considerable percentage of ttie cases and give opportunity for the1-development of a rational form of treatment.

So far as is known there is, therefore, no cancer bacillus, nor is :the disease one than can be considered contagious, a fact which con­tributes much to the peace °J m,n^ «I *h°*e afflicted with the disease and which makes their lot easier than it would be if everyone felt called -upon to avoid them.

CARRYING THE WHITE MANS BURDEN

FEW people have an adequate conception of the magnitude of the Bible distribu­

tion carried on in the British Empire by the British and Foreign Bible Society, as explained the other day by its president, the Duke of CoAnaught. - .. .

"There are about 4M).000.000 people within the Empire." he said in his address at the annual meeting in Queen s Hall. London.

He added: "Some part of the Bible has been made available for about 350,000.000. In other words out of every nine British subjects seven may read the Scriptures in" their mother tongue."

Stronger evidence it would be difficult to find of Great Britain's interest in her millions of sons and daughters.

The officers of the port put off to welcome the little victor. It was » grim sight that met- their eves Even yet the decks were bloody unit there was other ghastly evidence enough of fight Boon the story was broadcast, the ageless story of that epic battle.

That they still take their politics with old- time seriousness in the Maritime Provinces may be inferred from The Halifax Chronicle which accuses its Conservative opponent of nothing less than “a policy of lying.”

IT had happened six days before, on'June 1.twenty mile» at sea off Boston Light. The

Shannon was cruising with the Tenedoe along the coast of the United States, part of the immense blockading WrltTsfi fleet which had swept American merchantmen from the AtlanUe and which was exercising such <f grinding preneur» -on American resources indL ifiorare. There had been several single-combat actions during the years since the war had broken out, and several British vessels had had to strike their colors to American antagonist* of superior armament. Captain Broke of the Shannon, burning for an opportunity to wipe out what he and hie brother naval officers con­sidered deep disgrace upon their flag, sent it way the Tenedoe and hung off Boston while he sent In a challenge to a naval duel, a chal­lenge which was gallantly accepted by Captain I«awrenc# of the Chesapeake. Out sailed the "Chesapeake and after her down Boston Bay there sped a crowd of enthusiastic yachts and pleasure craft to watch the sport, safely from afar, and to cheer another British prise Into the harbor when ell was securely over. The two ships were not unevenly matched. The Uhesapeake was «lightly larger. She carried fifty-two guns, able to throw a total weight of | eleven hundred and eighty pounds of metal, and her crew numbered three hundred and seventy-six. The Shannon also carried fifty- two guns, able, however, to throw only a thou­sand and eighty pounds of metal, and her crew was only three hundred and all In all.

The action lasted only fifteen minutes, but It was one of the bloodiest and bitterest In navel annals. Both ships closed, firing every gun ttyey could bring to bear and causing appal­ling havoc on each other's decks. As the hulls humped the Shannon's crew, cutlass In hand, sprang over the bulwark*, swarmed arrows from rigging to rigging, and Jumped bride sea-lanes to the enemy. It was a fierce and furious melee, but brief. Fighting with his men. Capt. Lawrence went down, anil with him hi* second- in-command. Ludlow^ It was but a matter of moment before^ the fftars and Ht ripes ramer fluttering from the masthead and the Union Jaok ran up.

Then the crews, victorious and defeated, took stock, amid the frightful carnage. Aboard the Chesapeake lay sixty-one dead or dying, and elghty-flye lay wounded. The Shannon's decks held thirty-three dead and dying, and fifty wounded, among the latter Captain Broke. The second lieutenant, young Provo Wallis, later to become Admiral of the Fleet,, sailed the two ships to Halifax, while the pleasure craft of Boston stole dejectedly back Up Boston Bay*

v“It wits most reassuring." said Mr. Beatty to-day-, "to talk to the btisl- ne»s then In the various cities and towns we visited and to find them so full of confidence in the future of the districts in which they lived and of the country generally,. We noticed a marked change in thlg connection from the' conditions which existed a year ago when authoritative westerners more or less refused to make any prognostications regarding the return of old-time prosperity to their country.A SOLID FAITH

“It Is not that Westerners have re­turned tp the old-time attitude of boundless opTlmjsm thgj was some­times perhaps a little unreasoning, but they have now a solid faith that tells themrthat hard work and a fair measure of economy, together with an Increase of population through de­sirable immigrai ton will guarantee the future."

Askèd âs. t» Thé outlftWt fnr ttïlw year** crops. Mr, Beatty stated it was yet too early to speak with .any surety as to the final results, but thst the growth had made an ex­cellent start. In some districts, as In Manitoba. Spring seeding hail been lute, but heavy rains had been f.t\-'i able and conditions weçe now 'de­cidedly hopeful! In Saskatchewan there had been some lack of rain, but the grain had rooted well and the rains had since come. In Alberta rains had been needed after seeding and they had eolhe during the past week or two. the total result being that conditions were very favorable indeed for a good crop in almost all sections.

"It was the existence of these con­ditions." said Mr. Beatty, "coming on top of last year's spf»ndld yields thst were mainly responsible for the more cheerful tone everywhere ap­parent In the prairie provinces. If present satisfactory conditions con­tinue throughout the growing season. Western Canada should have another fine crop to harvest and be that’lnueh farther away from the troubles of the past year or two."IMMIGRATION

Mr. Beatty stated that a great deal of Interests was being shown through­out the country In the way in which the Government and railways were progressing in their ImmTgmlh campaigns He said the need for more farm laborers was still apparent In several districts and the country generally appeared to be satisfied that there was room for an even larger number than was coming for­ward. Practically all of those who came out last year were now well settled and In the way of becoming excellent, Canadian cltlsens.

"A lollypop party!" cried the rab­bit uncle. “How can I do that7 It Is raining so hard I can’t go to the store for any lollypops '

Then I'll make some!" laughed Nurse Jane.

You can't make lollypops!" said Mr. Longrars.

1*11 show you!" chuckled the musk­rat lady. "You go In and tell the chil­dren a rainy day story and I’ll make the lollypops."

8o Uncle Wlgglly told a story about a poor umbrella with a broken rib, who had no money to buy a pair of rubbers. And one day a rich pair of rubber byot*..walked to the um­brella's house, gave it a let of money so It could go to the hospital and have its ribs mended, and It lived happily for many, many years.

While Uncle Wlgglly was telling this story. Nurse Jane took some little wooden sticks, and on each one she fastened a molasses cookie. Then she dipped the cookies on sticks into strawberry Jam. and then Into melted sugar. And when the sugar hard need here were tne finest molasses cook­

ies strawberry Jam lollypops that heart could wish.

I4h, they're Just wonderful!", quacked Lulu and Alice Wibblewob­ble.

That's what they are!”' cried the other children "This is a lovely lol-

Jvpbp party. Thank you, Uncle Wig- glly."

j Thew the bunny was very happy, ahd when the bad old Bear tried ,to come in the bungalow to take away the lollypops. Nurse Jane sprinkled pepper on his nose and made him sneeze so hard that he turned à hack ■omersRiilt and then he was fright­ened and ran away.

The neat day the rain stopped and everybody con Id play in the sunshine. And If,the InitUe of milk doesn’t try t<. Jump through the keyhole -when the doormat Is chasing it around the front stoop. I’ll tell you next about Uncle Wlgglly’s umbrella,

Mainland Decides Against Pro Soccer

Professional soccer, the possibili­ties of which have frequently been discussed by followers of the game In Victoria was turned down after djecusslon at the meeting of the I«ower Mainland Football Association held In Vancouver this week. A committee had been appointed to present a report to the general meet­ing. and stated that professional soccer In their opinion could not be a success unless four or five Inter­city teams were organized.

Football was never in such a flour­ishing condition In the Lower Main­land as it Is at the present time the -annual.-report showed. - -

Westminster made the first move to keep the home fires burning by offering Vancouver all the proceeds from their own gates for the balance of the season.

This magnanimous gesture from a team notorious for forcing ugually a 60-49 break in all financial arrangements, stirred the sluggish blood of one or two Vancouver ath­letes and they made cautious over­tures to their colleagues.

Good-bye to Jammed Car Rides -« rpHANK GOQDtffeSS! I’m

J. through with thet.” ex- cleimed Tom, as he wheeled past the crowd struggling to get on the street car.

"It’a much pleasanter sitting on mÿ comfortable saddle than hang­ing to a atrap in a jammed, stuffy car.”

Tom it right. It certainly is a pleasure to ride a sweet - running C.C.M. Bicycle to work these fine mornings.

There is heslth in every breath. And the gentle exercise of cycling is just enough to stir up the circu­lation and put pep into the system. You feel fit to tackle the day's work.

You can ride home at noon, tco, to a hot lunch if you desire. And, after the day’s work is done, what a comfort to spin home on your smooth-running C.C.M. white others are trudging along the hard pavements or waiting on the corner for a crowded street car.

It will not take long to pay for a C.C.M. Bicycle. You can do it with the car-fare you’ll save, or with the shoe leather you’ll save instead of walking on hard pavements. Your time is worth money, too, and a bicycle will save you lots of time.

See the handsome new C.C.M. models, all asparkle with their bright nickeling and lustrous enam­eling.

Every C.C.M. is equipped with the famous C.C.M. Triplex Hanger —the power plant that gives C.C.M. Bicycles so much speed—and pep —and go.

They’re equipped with the C.C.M. Hercules Coaster Brake, too—the one without the clumsy side arm— yet ounces lighter and with fewer parts than any other.

There’s the new Gibson Pedal, too, with its silvery, rust-proof aluminum trame. Weather-proof Maple Rims. Flint-hard Bearings of extreme accuracy. A bicycle of su­preme quality in all its 1,761 parts.

Drop into the C.C.M. dealer’s and see the new models. From the Stan­dard model—the Special—the Sport model and other designs—it will be easy to pick out one that suits you to perfection, and at from $15 to $20 less than the "peak” prices. A Big Dollar's Value for every dollar you invest in a C.C.M.

The task of establishingtphe churcli on tip frontier, giving the Gospel te every scattered settlement and new, community whether East or Weal, has been the special responsibility oi tho Christian church. But along with this and equally Important In the life of the country la giving this same Gospel to neglected districts 1» great city centres, ' continues the re­port.

FINANCIAL POSITION "Financially the board/ la in a

stronger position than a >ear ago, not because of a larger revenue, but

.*.. ‘\mM » policy nf reirocfcroenV*said- the report. "For IMS the ex­penditure for maintenance was |»S8.- 828, or $80,000 less than in 1828. This reduction of twelve per cent, ̂was possible only by leaving Work Mn- cl on and fields unoccupied. Keeping these expenditures 144.800 less than authorised by the Assembly testifies to a serious and successful effort on the part of this board to relieve the financial strain and tide over a per­iod of great difficulty. The revenue was sufficient to meet the expendi­ture and to reduce the Home Mission share of the church's deficit from $100.000 to $46.080. The total num­ber of augmented charges and Home Mission fields Is 878. Twenty-nine augmented charges became self-sus­taining. Several of the Home Mission fields, chiefly for lack of funds, were left for the yeîîr without oupply.

“The board reports to the As- eembl" that the new minimum stip­end of $1,800 Has been accepted by practically the wrhole church.

"Student missionaries to the num­ber of 7l( were appointed for Sum­mer work at the annual meeting of the board.SOCIAL ftETTLKMKNTS

“In 'downtown' areas the church la expreeelng Its faith In the Ooepel of Jeeus Christ to save 'even unto tho uttermost" through the practical Christ Un service of the Social settle­ment. In Montreal, Toronto, Winni­peg and Vancouver work of this kind Is carried on. ministering to T.lti families and 18.887 Individuals. About 2,MM) mothers were taken out to fresh air camps in the country and given relief. If even for a short time, from the toll and heat of a congested area In a large city.EVANGELISM

“Ninety-four evangelisttg missions were held during the year, the- aver­age length of each being two-and- one-half weeks. No province was overlooked In theae eervlcee. I Hiring 1823. 1*0 were admitted to the dif­ferent redemptive home* and nine­teen give temporAry shelter. Seventy- two women were brought Into full church membership on public ^con­fession of their faith. Sixty girls were restored to their homes and sixty others were sent to bafe posi­tions. while forty-four chlWYwp were adopted Into Christian horp.es. MISSION HOSPITALS

“There are fourteen hospitals and hospital unit# situated fn Ontario and th« Western provinces ministering to all racial groups In the Urge colon­ies And on the frontier. One hospital treated 1.800 patients In the year and ninety-five per cent, of these were non-Anglo-Saxons. This case Is typical and gives an Idea of the splendid service rendered by the frontier hospitals.

“There are now eighteen school homes caring for 850 children and young people. Nine other applica­tions arc waiting for action on the part of the board. At «ne contre 83$ hoy* and gtrla have been educated» and most of these are to-day occupy­ing positions of influence and use­fulness In various communities. To educate the children of the country In I ho best Christian atmosphere posai Mo ts to make a great côrïtrit»u - tlon to them and to the nation, and this is the aim of the school home.

INDIAN WORK! "For years the number of Indians I In Canada showed a steady decrease," continues the report. "The period -be­tween 1841 and 1821. however, rei eroded an increase of over 5,000. In the various hoarding and day schools there are over 700 Indian children In Attendance. These institutions are frowlng In efficiency and a greater number of the children are showing interest and progress In their work. Klghty-four prlxes were won at the Provincial Exhibition In Regina by the children In File Hllle Behind, and fifty-one of three were in competl-

~tr<m With White children.NON-ANGLO-SAXONS

“The work among non-Anglo Saxhhs made -very substantial pro gresa during the year. Congrega­tions were more fully organised and In a numhf of Instances definite financial obligations were assumed by the peuple. The attendance at public worship has greatly lnrrease<dand a new__Interest In religion Isspreading among many ot the racial groups. These missions will provide

Marie and Edmonton are min Isterlng effectively to their varlou constituencies; reaching 1.174 fam­ilies and a correspondingly large number of Individuals.

"The non-Anglo-Saxon Is now*de­finitely sharing In the task of direct ing the life of Canada and is helping to set up standards of conduct and to determine the public conscience of the nation. Young men and women from all racial groups are graduating from Canadian universities and tak Ing their place among the Intellectual force.» of the'country. The Christ inn church 1* seeking to conserve and to direct this vigorous young life for the sake of the young people them selves and for the sake of the Do minion.FOR STRANGERS

“Stationed at porta of entry and In other cities where large numbers of newcomers ' gather there are four t ha plains and ten deaconesses, well as other workers who help these new settler* to forget ‘the sadness of farewell and to overcome the strangeness of the new- In-Uhe wel come extended to them In the name of tho Christian churches.

THE WOBBLE-WOOZER DUELThe True Facts of the Gory Encounter Over the Great

Ham and Egg Scandal ; Honor of Accuser and Accused Is Vindicated

By Montagu Mump, Secretary of the Hundred Per Cent Party

RADIO NEWS L

Doubtless you have heard vague rumors of the great 'Wobble- Woozer Duel! but the real facts of that gentlemanly and gory encounter have been so diatored that Alderman Wobble himself declares that BE hardly knows whether he killed Mr. Woozer or whether Mr. Woozer killed him. And. he has been so trencher* ously treated even by his friends, he says, that he doesn t care much which actually occurred. _______________________ _______ _

practitioner of Hie art. haa been writing recently on the qualltlea re­quisite to a good detective story. He points out that a writer ef this very popular class of fiction should have imagination, analytical power, and special knowledge along certain lines. In analysing the structure of k detective story, this author lets us into the Secret that it tends to fall into four stages ; (1) statement of the problem. -<?) Production of the data for its solution (clues.)<3) The discovery. Le., completion of, the enquiry by the investigator and declaration by him of the solution.<j|) Proof of the solution by an expo­sition of thé evidence. As we all know, murder is always chosen as the crime in & mystery story. Why is this? Mr. Freeman explains that the villain is the player on the other side; “and since wé want him to be a desperate, player, the stakes must he appropriately high. A capital crime gives us an adversary who Is playing for hie life, and who consequently furnishes the best subject for dramatic treatment.-’We are all familiar with the prac­tise of writers of detective stories in putting forward one clue after another, in inducing us to fix our fascinated gaze on one suspect after snother—all with no result. Mr. Freeman says this Is bad technique, wearisome to the reader and old- fashioned. He himself avoids in his stories devices to confuse and mis­lead the reader. It Is unnecessary to attempt to mislead the reader, he explains, for he will attend to that himself. The bolder the novelist in exposing evidence, in exhibiting hie facts, the more apt will the reader be to misa them and hence the greater will.be the Intellectual In­terest of the story. Proof of the solution Is said by Mr. Freeman to be the most difficult quality to obtain n a detective" story. It will hot do to unravel the mystery by having the detective or Investigator guess at the correct eolation. Tht» dts- gusta every critical reader. Strangs to say. Mr. Freeman Judge* by letters he ha* received that the most en­thusiastic devourer of detective fiction is the clergyman of studious and scholarly habit. Theologians, scholars, and lawyers enjoy this kind of fiction because they are men of a subtle type of mind an<1 woe to the novelist who baulks them, of tn-

Although Mr. Freeman says it la old-fashioned for mystery mongers to try to lead the reader to suspect everyone but the villain, I find that In this season’s crop of detect!^* stories this venerable practice Is rtttt very much in rogue Take for example Mr. X- .Fletcher’s new yam—hi* seventeenth—"The Mazar- off Mystery” (The Macmillan Co.. Toronto.) With all due deference To Mr. Freeman, Mr. Fletcher Hh to­day the best-known producer of this kind of fiction, with the single ex­ception of ftir Arthur Conan Doy>. who seem* to have shot his boU. In his latest thriller Mr,Fletcher sends an officer who fought in the late war and Mr. Mazaroff. a very wealthy man who had made a for­tune out of the diamond mines in South Africa, to the Woodcock Inn, a lonely place on the edge of Mar- rasdale Moor in th# north of Eng­land. Mazaroff confided to his traveling companion . that Mazaroff was not hie real name, that he had

— deserted his wife and left Marrlsdale many years before. He was now drawn hack to Me old haunts to see what had become of his wife and daughter, pn the second day after their arrival at the Inn. Mazaroff had a chanqe meeting with his wife The next night he went out. saying that he was off for a walk across the moor. In the morning hie body was found In a rocky valley and It wag clear tftàt he had been e*hot by

* some person unknown. At the In quest—Mr. Fletcher is strong on in quest»—the reader is pure that his wife, now married to a local, land - lord, la the guilty party. This Illusion 1, kept up tor several chapters but keen analytical clergymen will begin to think that they are on the wrong scent, even when the late Mazaroffa wifi ia found in the house by her daughter and turned over to the de tective who Is working on the case* About three chapters before the res­olution of the story, lawyer readers will have transferred their suspi­cions to at’leaat two other men who are being shadowed by the police, but I feel sure that few, of Mr. Flet­cher’s students will hit on the right party. Of course the detective, Mr. Maythome, has had hie eye on the villain for some time and when the curtain rings down the murderer has Just been arrested at » London depov Mr. Fletcher’s method may be baaed on bad technique, but I must say that I for one enjoyed it. The only weakness In tha story, so far as I can see. lies In the motive ascribed to the murderer.A BLIND MAN AS DETECTIVE

is to swing If the- extreme and make out that the trained investigator of crime would not be noticed In a crowd, that he la a person who reeks of commonplace I am told that this Is more in line with real life. In two new stories*

Who Killed Cock Robin?” by Har­rington Hext (The Macmillan Co.) and “The Furthest Fury" by Carolyn Wells (OoodchUd, Toronto), the de­tectives are very tame-loohlng In­dividuals, people you wouldn’t ..look at twice if you met them at g dinner party. They seem to be friendly harmless persons whom women en­joy meeting at an afternoon tea. Itut Mr. Ernest Bramah has reverted to the Old tradition and in his story. The Eyes of Max Carrados” ((Mc­

Clelland and Stewart, Toronto), he ha* attempted a feat never yet re­corded in the annals of detective fic­tion. As the title of his story implies, he has created" a blind sleuth. Many detectives are blind mentally, but Max is as blind as a bat. He Is not a professional detective, that would perhaps be too much for even the most credulous reader to swallow, but we are inveigled into believing that when he had a specially difficult mystery to solve. Louis Carlyle, the professional investigator, who is a very commonplace detective indeed, always called on his friend Max to help him out. and in the eight stories In this volume the blind man plucks the heart out of the mystery, wheth­er he Is running down the thief who stole a Shakespeare quarto or the woman who slipped some toadstools into a dish of mushrooms and pois­oned a greedy boy.BLIND MAN COULD PLAY GOLF

In *n introductory essay to this Volume, Mr. Btamah. who by the way -is the' author of "K*l L#ung> Golden Hour*" •#. work redolent of the occult, discusses the marvellous feats of Helen Keller and others who were dependent for their knowledge of the outside world on their sense of touch and a certain sixth iense denied to those who are fully en­dowed with physical accomplish­ments. And by way of following up the facts which he records in his in­troduction the author tells us early in the first mystery story in which Max Cortadoa Ilguyes of his skill in amusing himself and in getting- about. “If there was one thing more than another about Max Carrados,” says Mr. Bramah, “that came hs a. continu»! surprise, even k mild shock ( arm* acquaintance», It wa*~the wlrfrr and unrestricted scope of his amuse­ments Had the blind man displayed

pensive Interest in chamber music, starred by an occasional visit to the opera, taken a daily walk in the park ,on his attendant's arm, and found his normal recreation In chess or in being read to. the routine would have seemed an eminently fit and proper

To begin at the beginning, the Ex- ! ecutive Committee of the Hundred Per cent. Party met yesterday to de- cldç what it ought to do about the Woozer charges. You will recall, of course, that Mr>Pervlval W«»qxer re­cently threw the political life (of this country into chaos and himself Into a nervous breakdown by charging that Alderman Wobble, the candi­date of our party here, was in the pay of powerful food Interests; and that these interests, through Aider- man Wobble, planned to fasten themselves upon thé country.making life, in Mr. Wooxer'a own words, just one darned ham and egg after another.

This created a delicate situation. The Executive Committee met in tense silence, realizing that a crisis

sllenter than the other. They stood with backs turned, glaring at one an­other fiercely. The silence was op­pressive. We could hear the pat, pat, pat, of Mr. Blopp’s fat forefinger on Mr. Blopp’s fat noae.

DESPERATE WORDS “Let us have it over with,” snarled

Alderman Wobble at length. “I in tend to make a corpse of you!”

"Bring us revolvers—I propose to prepare you for the undertaker, ' growled Mr. Woozer.

“Gentlemen, gentlemen, be calm 1 beg of you—control yourselves." Mr. Blopp urged, trembling so violently -himself that his watch chain Jingle<r

one. But to call *l_The Turrets and learn that Carra do's Was" out on lh<* river punting, or to find him in his gymnasium, probably with the gloves on, outraged one** sense of values. The only extraordinary thing in fact about his recreations was their or­dinariness. He frequently spent an afternoon at Lord’s when there was the prospect of a good-game being put up; he played golf, bowls, cro­quet and cards; fished in all waters, and admitted that he never missed the University Boat Race since the great finish of ’31. When he^walked about thé streets anywhere within two miles of his house he was quite independent of any guidance, and on one occasion he had saved a mes­merized girl’s life on Richmond Bridge by dragging her into one of the recesses Just In time to escape an uncontrollable dray that had Jumped the curb.” Now if the reader la able to accept this last incident as a poalblUty. he will have no dif­ficulty in-believing that Max was clever enough to unravel the skeins of mystfry In these eight stories. As I read this book, I kept saying |o myself that the author had passed out beyond the bounds of possibility time and again, but I read, It with intense Interest. The plots of these stories are extremely well-built and 1 admired particularly the originality of "The Eastern Mystery” and "The Missing Actress Sensation.”TWO FEMALE MURDERERS

The Furthest Fury” and "Who Killed Cock Robin?*? are from the pens of American writers. From the literary point of view, they are not

y so good ns the above mention­ed volumes. But they will hold the reader’s attention to the last page. In both stories we suspect that the murders have been committed by women. In each narrative we settle down to the conviction, sooner or later, that a woman is at the bottom of the business, but In each case we have to decide between two women. Perhaps astute theologians will be able to decide who did the poisoning in the second story, hut I doubt it. A peculiar feature of, "Who Killed Cock Robin?” la that the author reaches the middle of the story bee fore he records the perpetration of the crime. Mr. Fletcher usually brings off tpe shooting In the very outset. Mr. Harrington Hext (this must be n nom de plume) Is an In­genious plot-builder aqd no one has concocted nWtueerer resolution than is to be fmmdfhthta mystery yarn, hut it leaves me unsatisfied.

was at hand. A powerful faction, led by Samuel Smudg*. even de­manded Alderman Wobbles retire­ment immediately. The- alderman, Mr. Smudge asserted, had çmfiOKM our eacutcheon with no ordinary smear and It was useless to deny hi* guilt. As everyone knew, Mr. Smudge* pointed out a politician Is always guilty, even If he is Innocent.

White evryone waited in hushed silence. Cicero Blopp, the brilliant organizer of our party, rose with that slow dignity which-la thé re-mtW 4*1 -y4NMw of polltloftl gxperie.ncq and a total avoirdupois of 297 pound*

"Thl*." said Mr. Blopp, tapping his noaa mysteriously With hit . right forefinger, "this la serious. These food Charges are wave, gentlemen, grave. Food comes Close to the heart of the average voter. Hit a man in the Htummick, as it were, hit him In the sturqmlck when he is not ex­pecting it and—well, he doesn't like it.” affirmed Mr Blopp, supporting this remarkable statement by tapping his vest affectionately at the point where his gold watch chain hangs in a shiny semi-circle. "No. he doesn't like it! Tbfrt is Just plain human na­ture.”

"Quite so. quite so- he doesn’t like it,’ 'murmured the followers of Mr. Blopp. tapping tbelr watch chains affectionately. “No. no.”

There was no doubt in Mr. Blopp’s mind that Alderman Wobble had commlted a serious blunder; not of course. In arranging an advantage- obs deal with the Food Barons but In getting caugth If he had stolenParliament Hulling* haie been murmurs from a few cranks but the average voter would have thought he pa* « rather clever fellow.

"Grave, gentlemen— graye,". said Mr. Blopp, tapping his noae again. ALL GOOD MEN

But, he went on, this was no time for regrets. To repudiate Alderman Wobble now would be ruinous to the Hundred Per Cent Party’s chances at the polls. During an election all can­didates. no matter what they had done. i no matter what they were likely to do, were upright, honorable gentlemen. They might have* been villains a week before nomination and probably would be again the day after the election , but, during the campaign, they could do nq wrong. This» said Mr.. Blow», was well known. It was an axiom in suc­cessful politics. It was all very well for* a party to plan the downfall of Its candidate following the poll, to prepare to knife him in the back as Roon as he was In office, but until then he must he treated with sincere esteem and affection

And then, thesb two great men, sinking their personal differences, grasped one another’s hands and wrung them violently. Tears rolled down their cheeks and spattered on the floor Mr Blopp said afterwards ft reminded him of* two shy violet» peeping up through the morning dew.

Mr. Woozer expMned that he had , never questioned Alderman Wobble’s ( integrity and what were a few ham tir'* eggs between friends anyway : ' As for Alderman Wobblq hie long friendship foi Mr. Woozer (he had known him two months) had filled him with mingled feelings of esteem and affection.

"Old Man Static." that much over­rated bugaboo of radio, is paying us a visit now and then* Jn the evening, and. a few suggestions, based on prac­tical experience. Way Y>e of interest to those who ars having their first experiences with summer static.

In the first plaça stations suffer much less from static when In close proximity to the broadcasting base.In fact, it may be said that at any given time the static increases in pro­portion to the distance of the station we are listening to. This is true largely because of the fact that as we reach out for any elation we bring the set up to that critical point where the signals are brought in best, which naturally means that It la the point where the static also comes In best.

This takes us zkmf to the second suggestion. which 'Is that loose coupling between primary and sec* ondary Is variable. Where it Is not variable then keep the tickler coupling loose. In other words, keep the^aet out of the critical conditionwhere every Impulse striking the______ „ . . .aerial is amplified add brought to I physiciststhe headphones and loud speaker. sought a cure

Borne operators are of the opinion that the variable grid leak can he used to advantage In the cutting of static. Changing the-grid leak alters the sensitivity of the set and shifts the point of oscillation, which can be used to keep the set out of a critical adjustment. In the main, however, twiddling the grid leak is not to be favored. It la the present cause of many seta falling to deliver as they should. It Is better to get the right leak and leave It alone.

The best way to lessen static is, of course, the use of an inside aerial, whether It be a single wire 20 to 40 feet long In the attic, or else­where. a wire around "the picture molding, a loop or variations of anv of these. Such an aerial, the attlo wire being perhaps the best, will pick up all the programmes in the local vicinity with not noticeable loss of volume from the outside aerial.Ther will pick up much less italic and. except when thelre Is a thunder­storm hoveling right overhead, they can be ^ used with little trouble cn headphones and with a minimum of interference on the loud speaker.

Then, too, if the operator uses the inside serial he will find much less difference than he expects, com­pared with the outside aerial. Within the last week two 1#t>ee used in either un Ambassador coil set or in à set with the same sort of primary and secondary but with a variometer In the plate, have brought in Chicago,Cleveland. Springfield and Cincin­nati on a 40-foot pttlc wire so that the stations were audible 16 feet from a home a seem bled loud speaker cost­ing less than $7. Both sets use a 169-tube as a detector and a 201-A for an amplifier These sets bring in Bdhenectady, I’ittsburg and Phila­delphia on the loud speaker with good volume on the same attic wire

On those nights whan the static la really bad and its roars spoil loud speaker reception take up the head phones and use less audio-frequency amplification. Audio amplification seems to increase the volume of static more than that of the algnUa.

It Is wett to keep in mind the fact that the higher the aerial thf more static It will pick up. If the fan Insists on the outside aerial bring tt down to from 12 to II feet off the ground and leu static will be heard.

Radio frequency amplification in various forms has been advanced as a remedy for static. It seem* to be true in practice that radio frequency amplification does amplify static, claims to the contrary notwithwtand,Ing. Individual users differ widely as to the advantage of radio amidifi­cation during the static season This problem bid* fair to be settled dur­ing the coming Summer with so many

Don’t tear apart a manufac­tured set and try and build a set of your own design. Tho parts from a manufactured set are usu­ally unsuited for any other use then which they were primarily Intended for.

As an added safety measure It la always a good idea, after yod have put your set away for the Summer, to conhect the aerial and ground wires together.

Don’t buy a cheap constructed radio. It Is better to have 1 good crystal set than a bad tube set.

of the world have sought a cure for static Ills. The discoverer will be able to name his own term» and live in wealth ever afterward, as a sure cure for static would be worth billions to the com­mercial radio companies and the marine branch of radio.

In the tropics, where they get real static which makes any we have seen unwortthy of notice, there are hours gt a time when radio sets are useless because of the deafening and con­tinuous static.

It Is a field In which the radio fah» of the country, might well do a bit of experimenting this Summer. The problem is large, opportunities for experiment are plentiful and the re­ward of success would he fabulous.

In the meantime, for those in­terested only in getting as much pro gramme and as little static as possible, the best advice is to stick to the nearer stations, use little or no audio amplification and keep the coupling loose, with a minimum of regeneration.

London. June 6.—Radio telephonic communication between Europe and America Is "coming soon." William Marconi, wireless inventor, declared to-day In an interview In which he discussed the results of his recent radio speech from Cornwall which was heard distinctly not only, by prepared listener in Australia, but also by a «friend in Montreal. The beam system was not used In this experiment, in which both listeners had only small sets for receiving. NEW STATIONS

Mr. Marconi said the results of tha beam system transmission, which he Intended to make the material for trmna-Atlantic experiments soon, un­doubtedly would satisfactorily prove Its availability for high speed only. His comtHmyv he said, was to buM large stations In

Believe in the Truth

While the glamor associated with the life of the operator of the old days has been somewhat forgotten, tTe t*~ttT‘d*y, nevertheless, in impor- tant factor on board ship. With .the progress made In modem day ship- ~ board wireless apparatus the duties of the telegraphist hgye beconie of an arduous nature and cwjtt for a man skilled in the sclencg of radio.

The telegraphist of to-day plays a ery largo pari In the navigation of

the ship, as he keeps the commander posted with the broadcast weather reports'and forecasts for tho waters In which hl»_vessel may be trading. Warnings of neighboring icebergs are also received from vessels who patrol the seas for the purpose of wirelessing this dreaded danger.

In addition to tpe apparatus for the reception of messages of such vital Importance as those mentioned above and of those exchanged be­tween the ship and the shore by pas­sengers, there are now quite a large number of steamers which are equip­ped with radio direction-finding ap­paratus and a further duty is allot­ted to the telegraphist to locate the position of the ship during foggy weather by obtaining wireless bear­ings on this apparatus of radio waves emanating from coast stations of know localities.GETS STEAMERS COURSE

The steamship » Stavangerfjord, proceeding on her first voyage from Christiania, after being fitted with a Marconi direction finder, received distress signals from the steamship Otta, which was drifting helplessly

1th her ruddy stock broken. From e position sent out by (he steam- lip Otta and accepted without

Question, it appeared that she was twenty-five miles away, a ad the Btdangerfjord steered toward the position given. On arriving there, however, no trace of the Otta could be found and observations with the direction finder indicated that she was sixty miles away. The\ course was altered accordingly and the In­formation given by the direction finder was found to be correct. Meanwhile the salvage steamer Ja­son had been sent out form Bergen to assist the Otta and the Stavan- gerfjord stood by. It soon appeared that the Jason w^a steering a wrong course, owing her Inability- to take observations by the sun, and the Stavangerfjord piloted her to the right place by repeated directional observations.

In addition to the aforementioned services which radio plays ’in the navigation of a steamer, it must npt be overlooked that a very large vol­ume of passenger traffic is excl)»ng- ed between ships at sea and between ships arid the shore.

The establishment of wireless communication between ships at sea and. the shore always appeals to the Imagination of the layman and the recipients of messages on board ves­sels generally retain these a» souv­enirs of their voyages.LAND COMMUNICATION __

The knowledge that a wlreleas sta­tion exists on shipboard which la capable of keeping in touch with the land always instills a sense of secur­ity. a happy feeling, especially when bad weather is experienced.

The number of radio mesaajr** handled on some of the largest ocean greyhounds has now become so vast that a large staff of -telegraph­ists hns to be carried. The 88.

Ttie foregoing la one of the countr­ies* humorous episodes in "Why Men Leave Hdme," a First National pic­ture produced by John M.

John Emerson did not know when he got up that memorable mornfng that It was the first anniversary of his wedding, until bis wife presented him wljlr a gift. 8o after he got down, to the office he called up his Jeweler and ordered him to send a gift to his wife, tellipg hlm( to make the choice himself.

Mickey Moore in the character of young Prince Robin Is supposed to warn them that Lor rain » fiance Is approaching.

Mickey was hungry then and the director was taking special pains to give the proper shade of emphasis to th# scene. He went over each detail ' carefully to impress the youngster with the necessity of do­ng them correctly. 8o, wheruMTickey

After a separation or forty years, two old timers met at Aldergrov» this week when Thomas Deasy. former Indian agent for the Queen Charlotte Islands, visited Philip Jackman, one ot the two surviving members of the Royal Engineer com­pany who helped to establish New Westminster In 1859. Accompanying Mr. Deasy to Aldergrove were Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Wilson. R. W. HhlUre and W. H. Keary of New West­minster. Mr. Jackman Is tn his ninetieth year and Is back In good health following a somewhat serious llhiees.

Both are sons of Crimean War vet­eran*. both yfere t»orn In Ports­mouth. England, came out on the same boat together, lived near each other at Rapperton and later learned the printing trade. Mr. Deasy stayed tn New-Westminster for Sew years and afterwards removed to Victoria V. hi re ho was fire chief for fifteen years.

UNEASINESS DISPLAYED IN STOCK MAKKIT

New York, June « (By R. P. Clerk & Company)—The general run of news Items was not very construc­tive In interpretation especially ad­vices touching on the oil situation. Numerous reductions in gasoline prices were announced, also much talked of cut In mkl-continent crude. Sugar stocks were under pressure, reflecting depression In thè raw mar­ket. A helpful Influence of the day with respect to the rails shares was the car loading figure* which showed an increase over the preced­ing week in the face of reports of slowing up in industry which are so numerous these days.

Heaviness iri the market was due to a renewal of bearish activities stimulated largely by the reports of reduction in crude oil on the mid- continent field and Texas, and also thir rSfnàrki credited re a very prominent Ideal operator.

We see nothing to warrant a pes­simistic over the business outlook and believe that a not distant date possibilities of a clearing up of the foreign situation may become quits a constructive factor.

•T0ÇK8 WEAK AND LOWER RAILS RESIST PRESSURE

New York. June 6 (By B. A. Bond) —A good deal of weakness was ap­parent In to-day's stock market, es­pecially in the industrial group. Rail­roads showed some firmness at the beginning, but later felt the Influ­ence of the weakness In other de­partments of the list. OH stocks were affected by the decline in crude oil pHces as announced by the Magnolia Petroleum, a subsidiary of the Standard 0(1 of New York. Baldwin Locomotive sold ex-dividend, and later lost two points, while the Steel Stocks lost ground steadily toward the .close. Traders aree now waiting for developments In connection with the coming Presidential nominations, and while a certain amount of ner- ousnens la felt, it Is thought general­ly that the market position will be strengthened temporarily at least when results of the Republican-nom­ination are known. Money is cheap and banka are picking up good se­curities. This should relieve the pres­sure on the market, and eventually result in a substantial advance all around.

Chicago, Ilia.. June 6 (By R. I*. Clark » Co., Ltd.)—Wheat: Follow­ing an early rally theawhent tone be­came weak with a sharp decline run­ning into support on the setbacks. The shipping demand was better with sales of 70.006 bushels and there was evidence that prices are on an export basis on the dips. Rains were shrtern at gome points in the north­west. fcut more general and heavy rain Is needed, it Is extremely sig­nificant that Europe continues to atisorb tremendous quantities of wheat weekly without a falling

“price or appàrènflÿ glütflhg 'âwÿ~ of the foreign markets.

We heilevt this situation will be k btg fActor on the buying side ar little later on, but our market Is still undergoing readjustment with Winnipeg and will have to stand ihe test of hedging pressure

This will make a two-sided "market for a time, but would buy on the backs for turns now and later for a long pull.

Corn. In general shown little net change for the day, being influenced at times by the weakness in wheat, but having a fair demand at- all times, with the September gaining on the July. Crop conditions still Indi­cate a dubious outlook In many Im­portant sections. We look for a two-sided, market for present.. ----------““Oats:—Reached with wheat ■ nd (here was selling by b»cal longs who got recently cash-prices are showing a strong tone relatively, and this, is helping out the bulls materially. Crop news still mainly optimistic, but this crop also needs some warm weather.

Chicago. June 6 (By B. A. Bond) —A trading market of very narrow proportions was witnessed In grain futures to-day. Wheat was inclined to sag. but last prices were not much below the opening. The near de­livery tended to gain on the morç.dte- tant futures. Com ond oats were little changed with the former show­ing the most resistance tp selling pressure. Crop advices he regan.a wheat are about a standoff, the con­tinued dry weather In the Northwest, particularly in the'Pacific states, is offset by favorable conditions in the Middle West. Conditions In the corn belt sre still unfavorable. The con-

. census of opinion seems to favor purchaser of wheat on recessions, al­though the market action of the past few days does not indicate any marked strength In the technical po­sition of the market.

The amount paid to clerks, stenographers and salesmen was |8.- 329.081.31. as compared with $7,187.- 149.61 In the previous year, an In- creaee equal to fifteen per cent. A larger proportionate increase, how­ever. was shown by the total pgid to wage-earners, 119.630.- 116 11. which Te an IbftfflM of twenty-five and one-half per cent over the prevloim year.

Probably the most striking in- formstisn contained in Mr. Me- Niven's report is the statement that the proportion of Asiatics employed in British Columbia in­dustry lest year was, lower than at any time in the last si* years.Of the men employed in this Pro­vince last year 34.66 per tent wore native Canadians and 3079 na­tive» of the British leleo. Chinese. Japanese and Hindus fermed 13 Sô per cent of the yrorkere •• ##w- pared with 1441 per cent in 1022.In 101S Asiatics fermed 20.37 per cent of the male industrial workers.

-Of our Industrial workers of Asi­atic origin, the majority are engaged in one branch or another of thajum- berlng industry." Mr McNiven says. Thus 22.34 pej cent of our lumber worker» are Orientals. The propor­tion is rather ToWer than last years' which was 26.63 per cent. This de­cline is caused entirely by the lower­ing of the proportion of Orientals In sawmill», from 39.82 per cent, in 1983 to 88.96 per cent, in 1823. In all other branrhee of the lumbering industry the percenlagt* of Oriental workers has been raised, in logging from 6.84 to 7.96, on logging railways from 9.62 to 14.95. In planing mills from 30.80 to 88.04. and in shingle mills from 63.68 to 56.13."

LUMBERING BOOMSSummarising industrial conditions

In the Province last year. Mr. Mc­Niven eeye that only in six of the twenty-five fnduetrtel groups re­porting to his department have de­creased payrolls occurred.

"The highest Increase is shown in th* lumbering group, which le also by far our largest Industry in the Province, accounting for neatly one- third of the entire Industrial pay­roll." the report goee on "Salaries and wages in this Industry shown! an Increase of between 8ll.»ftd,<NXbOO and 8It,000.000.00 or nearly fifty per cent, over the previous year Title tr largely accounted for by the ad­vance In the export business of the industry, which has been progressive during a period of yestrs. In the past year the demand from abroad -war stimulated by The results of the earthquake In Japan, but it la quite certain that British Columbia lumber Is winning Us way into the markets of many countries. In this field there le much to be done before It can equal the demand for the rival pro­duct» of the neighboring Statee, but there eeeme every reaeon to expect that we shall gradually overhaul them In the volume of businesstransacted. 1 ___ _•HIPPING LARGER

"Moet of our other Industries showed An appreciable advance last year. In the Coaet shipping group the wage total was over a million mere than In 1923, The male factor In bringing about this Increase was the longehorlng activity In Vancou­ver In the latter part of the year, when record quant It lea of wheat were being shipped. In the contracting group, alep, there wae an Increiee of more than a million In the pay­roll. Metal mining made a big jump, Increasing its pay-roll by nearly two and a half million», and smelting Showed a corresponding increase of about 1950.000.00 These Industrie» experienced a very satisfactory re­covery after the comparatively quiet period through which they had been passing, and a comparison of tbe last two year#' figures for the pulp and paper industry telle a similar story. The shipyards of the Province, which had been reducing their pay-roll eàrh year since 1919, evidently touched the low point in 1938. as last year ehowed an Increase of 8110.000.00. This is probably explained by the Increased amount of repair work given ship Owe ere to Brltleh Columbia firme. "With the approaching completion of drydeck projects, work of

should fill a larger plaee In our In­dustrial outlook.SEASONAL FLUCTATIONS

“The most Important Industries In this Province are, in thetr nature, very subject to seasonal fluctations, and this Is shown In the table giving the average number of wage-earners month by month. The 3,87» firms whose record is now' under review had 65.115 men In their employment In the month# of January. This number increased every month until August, when a total of 71474 was reached. From then there was a small .decline each month until No­vember, followed by a drop between that month and December from 66.- 060 te 60.666, a period which probably marked the closing down of many camps for mid-Winter, and the eue-

Ç-nsihn of much out-door work.here has been, however, in the last

two years a welcome tendency to shorten the duration o( thé Whiter stoppage of work, and this has had the effect of lightening the trouble esueed by unemployment."

In coal mining, there wae a notice able falling-off D* the pay-roll of the Industry on Vancouver Island, which hae been attributed in eome quarters to the increased use of fuel oil for •hipping. This falling off. hnwev.r, was almost balanced by an Increase in the pay-roll of the mines In the Interior, particularly In the (’row s Nest a re a whose employees, it may be mentioned are the moet highly paid cU*se of Industrial workers in the Province.BIG PAY ROLLS

"Mention has been made In the report» for the last two years of the number of large Industrial firm» In the Province with apay-roll of over 8100 004.00 for the year. In the re­turns for 1921 there were 118 such firms Included; In 1912 the number wm 164. and for the year 1921. re­turns have been so nt In by 200 firms with a pay-roll of over 81.000.00. Eleven of these had a pay-roll of over 81,000,000.00. No ac­count is taken o t any public authorities. Dominion. Provincial or Municipal, or of the transcontinental railways, wholesale and retail mer­chants. and deep-eea shipping The biggest Improvement ha» again been shown by the lumbering group uf Industrie», which had exactly 100 firms with a pay-rdll of $100,000 00 or over, compared with seventy-nine in 1082 and forty-seven In 1131.

“Its a little poem, Snooks, and some day I will recite it to you. Just now 1 can only remember the one singularly beautiful line which has suggested my new form of exercise."

Mr. Atklneon became aware of a boot in the lower portion of his back, and then the stair* seemed to rise up and hit him. He finally came to rest In th<# hall against an old oak cheat of the pointed-corner type, and for a moment or own he lay there dazed. Then he scrambled to hie feet to find three young men. who had emerged from a lower room during hie flight, gaxing at him impassive­ly while standing at the top of the stair* down which he had Just des­cended and outlined against e win­dow was the huge, motionless figure of Drummond Half cursing, half sobbing, he staggered to the front door'jsnd opened it. Once morç he looked1 back—not one of the four men had moved. They were Just staring at him in absolute silence, and, with a sudden feeling of pure terror. Count Zadowa, alias Mr. At­kinson, shut the door behind him and staggered Into the sunlit street.

"The devil It wae," cried Jerning- ham. “I hope you give him some­thing for me. Incidentally, how did he run you to earth here?"

"Electric grandmother." snapped his master "You paralytic Idiot, why did yp'ù leave him alone?"

"Well, sir, Mrs. Drummond was in .the house at the time—and the serv­ants were all round the*, place." Denny looked and felt aggrieved, and after awhile Drummond smiled.

cried Toby Sinclair."What the devil am 1 to tell them?

They'd think I was off my head. And Fve got no proof that* Petereon Is st the bottom of it. 1 haven't even got any proof that would convince them that Longmoor is Peterson."

Algy Longworth stood up, serious < for once in az way.

“There's no time now to beat about the bush. Hugh. If they've got Phyl­lis there's only one possible thing that you can do. Go straight . to Bryan Johristone and put all your cards on the table. Tell him the whole thing from A to Z—conceal nothing. And then leavfe the matter in his hands. He won’t let you down.”

For a moment or, two Hugh faced them undecided. Then sudden danger to Phyllis seemed to have robbed him temporarily of his power of initia­tive: for the time l)e ha3 ceased to be .the leader.

"Algy'e right," eald Jernlngham quietly. It doesn't matter a damn what happens to us, you’ve got to think about Phyllis. We’ll get it in the neck—but there was always that risk."

“I believe you're right " muttered Hugh, looking round for tUa hat. “Mybrain's all bussing. I can’t think------ "

And at that moment the telephone bell rang on his de»k.

"Answer it,• Ted," said Hugh. Jernlngham picked up the receiver. "Yes—thle ie Captain Drummond’s

"He sent a message to ÿou. old man.

COVENTRY’S PLATFORM

To the Editor.—Saanich has de­veloped some surprising issue* lnJ this political campaign Mr. Coven­try's platform as he outlined it at Marigold recently, definitely make* provision for a bonus of i$l.(K>0,itoO) i one million dollars to be divided Into five thousand. (5,666) units at $264* a unit for maternity lN*nefrts. '' Tl*r. Coventry"» content Ion was that some five thousand births per annjim. cost around some $200 per head, and as the workingman's wages was too small to set aside $200 for such purposes, he suggested this bonus aa a remedy for the worklngniMn * shortage of I cash. Whiît Mr Coventry did hot j mention a sunS of $1.000,000 for this 1 purpose he was emphatic In his figure I

[ of $$WJT~per head and the babes j arriving annually- was 5.000 so j figuring 200 times (5.000* five thou­sand would he one million dollars h<* suggested to. distribute around pro- | vlding he made the grade on June 20. j

This special appeal to the mothers of Saanich to vote his way into a, seat in our legislative hall, was made on broad International community co­operation. without any distinction to mothers of race, creed or color, em­bracing white women, klootchmen, Chinese. Japanese and Hindus.

Mr. Coventry, not specifying any , race, color or creed, securing: the above mentioned maternity bonus, it might be surmised he was prepared to assume the responsibilities of a foster parent to 5,000 youngsters and In hie lordly way stand godfather to 5,060 new horn babes at their christening' for hi* services rendered to them re bonus.

Mr. Coventry made a savage attack j

2n the American hen. at his meeting t Marigold the same evening.He quoted figure* that the Ameri

can hen was sending into our coun­try millions and millions of eggs, putting the British Columbia hen output hors-de-combat on a whole­sale price fotr her eggs of seventeen rents per dozen.

After pouring out the vial* of his wrath on the American hen. it woubP, appear that no American hen would evër be able to place a foot On Canadian soil If the said Coventry made the grade.on June 26 next.

A hack bench on-looker, at that Marigold meeting questioned the Coventry statement. claiming that ! not one dozen American eggs were Coming Into B.C.

Quoting Bill,No. 21. passed Decem­ber 23 the B.C. legislature enacted a measure whereby any .bakery, res­taurant or hotel that wed Imported eggs, In their business had to put up a notice pn the premises that tfie eggs used <4me from China. Washing­ton. Oregon or other foreign parts.
