Drawn by J. Howard Smith. Section One. ) Section Two will appear in our issue of January 17 WuT7nTi%J., that flcwe Happened In Town and District in the Past Year and Possibilities for 1913, 1912 is on first base and 1913 is at the bat. The good work of the past year is to be backed up by the better work of the year that is just hegun. It is up to 1913 to make a three bagger. One year's work is lost if it is not supported and followed up by the year that comes after. Sometimes the year has to make a sacrifice hit. Let us hope that will not be the fate of the present batsman. In the town's premier industry, the lumber business carried on by the Adams River Lumber Company, the past year has been one of expansion, and of preparation for yet larger development in the future. The cut of their mill in 1912 exceeded that of any pre vious year. The company acquired new areas carrying timber sufficient to furnish the raw material for several years of manufacture. Those areas have been opened up by roads, camps have been built, a log chute has been completed, and preparations are well advanced for the construction next season of an immense log flume for transporting the logs from the new areas to the Little Shuswap Lake. In the public affairs of the town the newly organized board of trade has taken a leading place und has obtained for the citizens more than one boon that has contributed to their welfare. Chief among these are railway and street improvements. The Chase Fire Association haw finished with a good record. Beginning the year with a debt of more tnan three hundred dollars, they now have a balance in the bank of $196.23. after having added materially to their fighting equipment. This result has been accomplished through the active energy with which the boys of the brigade tackled their tasks. The beginning of the year witnessed the growing demand for the publication of a local paper. The Tribune has come as the answer to that demand, and it modestly believes that it is and will continue to be a valuable asset to the town and district. A newspaper can do much to aid the development of a new locality. And development means more business, more people to be fed and clothed, more houses to be built, an increased market for light and water, and better living conditions. Turning to the farming sections that form so important a part of the Shuswap Valley, we find that the year has been one of progress. The forest has been receding before the vigorous onsets of the land companies. The Lillooet and Shuswap Fruitlands, Limited, at Sorrento and the Seymour Arm Fruitlands, Great Britain's Boom. Great Britain is undoubtedly passing through a great trade boom, and reports from all parts of the country prove that practically every class of manufacturing is doing business on a much larger scale than has been experinced for many years past. Other proofs of England's present great business prosperity may be found i.i Uit -.J.fltj.''..'.;.I .lijjutking retU-An. 5ot tw current year to the end of (November, which are quoted at #72,500,000,000, or ah* advance of eight percent on last year's returns for the same period, and the very great increase in the sums t.pent in advertisements, several contracts having been recently entered into fur comparatively short periods amounting to $100,000 each. Swedes for Peace River. A Portland (Ore.), syndicate is arranging to engage in colonization work in the Peace River district next spring and will start a vigorous campaign in Northern Europe to secure settlers. It plans to establish a Swedish and Norwegian colony within British Columbia territory adjacent to Pine River Pass. The colony will be located on a tract of 25,000 acres of farm land acquired by its agents from Charles Ross MacAdam of Vancouver, the selling price of the tract being $8.25 an acre. Mr. Mac- Adam was informed that a party of at least three hundred wilt emigrate from Sweden and Norway next April to settle in the proposed colony. The land is said to be well adapted for wheat-growing and general agricultural purposes. It also includes a large area adapted for cattle ranching. (Td ESTERN CANADA WEEK BY WEEK ,<;��� If* ���-+- The Johns1:Mannville, operating in ap- rFh_! Imperial Bank hafi bought a site bestos all o\*er North America, with on ,Whyte avenue, Stri^thcona, at the mjtl E Limited, at Seymour Arm, have been conducting active land clearing operations throughout the year. A large number of settlers have come in, most most notably in the country around Pritchard, where there is no bar to obtaining entry on public lands. That district looks forward to a bright future as a farming centre. In actual triumphs in fruit raising Salmon Arm has taken an enviable position in competion with not only British Columbia but the whole of Western America. The laurels won at New Westminster and at Lethbridge pave brought Salmon Arm, and through it the whole Shuswap district, into the front rank as a producer of the finest fruit. The Notch Hill, Sorrento and Blind Bay district has also made noteworthy advance in fruit and mixed farming. The present year will certainly see the further expansion of this fundamental industry. The Shuswap is not known as a mining country, but it is going to be. During the past year tbe eyes of mining men have been turned in this direction. Options are at present held oh promising copper properties at Seymour Arm, and discoveries of valuable deposits of gold are reported from near Sicamous and from Celesta Creek. The coming year is almost sure to Bee some definite beginning made towards exploiting our mineral resources. The year upon which we have just entered should be the best yet in the history of the Shuswap Valley. mines in Quebec and factories in half a dozen of the principal cities of the United States, will open a branch in Calgary early this year. The Provincial Government will consider the advisablity of enlarging by 100 acres the university site at Point Grey. One hundred and seventy-seven acres constitute the site as at present laid out. Over three thousand men are now at work on the construction of the Kettle Valley Railway. The management state that they expect to have this number increased to five thousand within a few months. Revelstoke, Dec, 31.��� A banquet to Mr. Thomas Kilpatrik, a citizen of Revelstoke and retiring C. P. R. Superintendent was held last night at Terrill Hall, Revelstoke. It was a great success, over two hundred guests being present. Many telegrams and letters expressing regret for unavoidablo absence was received from notable railway men and public persons throughout Western Canada. Lacombe, Alta., Jan. 1.���From his experience with the construction of important electric suburban railways in various parts of Canada, Engineer William Young states that the new Lacombe Rimbey line to be started early in the Spring is likely to mean the rapid settlement of the entire country served over an area of several miles on each side of the right of way. Mr. Young also believes that the new line will encourage every farmer in the district to get in closer touch with the produce markets, as the long haul will be eliminated, and a fair profit should be obtainable on the product. The experience of other farm ing districts is instanced by Mr. Young aB showing the large possibilities of substantial advances in farm acreage values as a result of the coming of the suburban line. F. A. Tripp, well-known in Victoria real estate circles, and interested extensively in important development projects in British Columbia, stated in an interview that in his opinion Kamloops occupies the position in Canada that Spokane does in the States, being by nature the commercial capital of a vast interior area, Kamloops, he said, must from force of circumstances, become the- distributing point for that entire territory. He also added; "A developing field of industnal and commercial enterprise, a railway centre, a rich agricultural and mining area, these are all factors operating in the making of a city. They are forces which are simply driving Kamloops forward as the most progressive city of the interior." Mr. Tripp states foat he looks to see important development taking place at Kamloops during the coming year. record price of 41*640 per^oot. Although plans for the new structure have not been prepared, the building in all probability will' be three stories in height and will cost approximately $100,000, Calgary, Alta., Jan. 1.��� The estimated assessment of Calgary for the municipal rates of 1913 will probably reach $132,000,000, an advance of $20,000,000. In order to provide for present and near future demands on the waterworks system, due to the very rapid increase in population, the council will submit a bylaw for $1,000,000 as a preliminary appropriation for extensions to the Bow River. An expert power engineer is to be employed to report on the question of additional power from either water, coal or natural gas, any of which will furnish an ample source directly tributary to the city. Winnipeg, Man., Jan. 1.���The estimated Increase in Winnipeg's population for 1912 is about 20,000. The maintenance of this ratio of increase would mean practically th? doubling of Winnipeg's present population within the next five or six yearB, Within one well- known residence district a single company constructed about 75 houses during the season just past. It happens usual ly thatleases are signed by tenants before the houses are eompleted. In the Pomona district there are said to be at least a dozen tenants waiting for every house that can he built for a period of months to come. Extensive improvements are to be inaugurated in this district during the coming year, and the belief is expressed that this exclusive district is about to take its place among Winnipeg's leading residential sections. Watrous, Sask., Jan. 1.���Upwards of 200 members have now been enrolled by the Watrous Agricultural Society, and an aggressive policy is being outlined for the work of the coming year. Steps are being taken toward arranging an extensive course of study for local farmers with the co-operation of the university of Saskatoon. The development of the rich agricultural district surrounding Watrous is proving an important factor in the town's development as a population and distributing centre; and with shops, roundhouse and 27 miles ofi'tracks it is pointed out that the shipping advantages enjoyed by local producers are likely to prove a strong drawing card for newcomers to this part ot the west during the years right ahead.' Members of the Watrous board of trade have taken a keen interest in omotion of the agricultural society Adams fiver Planing IVfyi Is Slwt the pi __^^^^_^^_ to its/present point of efficiency. R. ti. Brett of Duck Range was wu *\ visitor in town yesterday. Diwn For Overhauling and Repairing, The planing mill of the Adams River plant has been shut down for several days while the machinery is being put in shape for another year's work. Radical changes are being made in the blower system for carrying shavings to the burner. The work is being done by the John K. Miller Co., Limited, of Vancouver. J, P. McGoldrick, the president of the company, was in town duripg the first three days of this week giving his personal attention to various matters of business. Mr. Doyle, who has been chief accountant for the past few weeks, has resigned his position and went away with Mr. McGoldrick on Wednesday. The Hindu Problem. Some if not all of the lumber mills in this vicinity are realizing that the dusky East Indian worker is not so economical as was thought when he made his appearance in this country some seven years ago. Many local institutions have gradually been letting their Sikh workers out, and it is anticipated that they will all be eliminated in the course of time. These East Indian mill hands have learned a great deal that may be useful knowledge to them and a great deal more that will cause trouble to other people during their residence in this country. They know quite well that they are not paid the equivalent of a white workman's wage and consequently they are not over anxious to perform a similar amount of work.���New Westminster News, RECORD YEAR Outlaws Handed Over. Kamloops, Dec. 30.���Under heavy police guard, Moses Paul and Paul Spint-- lum, who shot and killed Alexander Kindness, a provincial police officer last May, were brought to the city on Saturday and hurried to the jail. They will probably come up for trial at the spring assizes. The desperadoes were handed over by the Indians chiefs to Mr, J. F. Cummiski Indian agent at Vernon. It was well known that the chiefs could lay their hands on the fugitives if they choae to do so, and Mr. Cummiski threatened that unless the men were given up to him before the end of the year the official dignities of the chiefs would be cancelled. 000 feet More than During Last Year. New Westminster, De.\ 28.-According to the report of the Canadain Western Lumber Company, the Fmser Mills have shipped 35,000,000 more feet of lumber east this year than during 1911. The market of 1912 has been Ik! ter than in any other previous year in the history of the industry, and never before has there been such a demand for dressed and undressed lumber.' Shipment of other mills in this city und other points of the lower mainland eartward have shown a remarkable increase. While the market at present is reported somewhat dull, it is however, better than usual for this time of the year, and there is every indication that after the first of the year things will again pick up. Mr. W. W. North, travelling salesman for the Canadian Western Lumber Company, has recently returned from Saskatoon and other prairie points, and reports very prosperous times owing to unexcelled crops. This condition justifies heavy building and orders for lumber are received in large number. Lumber Jacks Migrate. Minneapolis, Dec. 27. "Turkeys," packed with a winter's supply of Peerless and plug CUt, the American lumberjack is crowding the second-clasH coacheB of the railway trains invading the northern woods of Minnesota and Wisconsin. Mackinaw clad���a fashion which prevailed in the pine woods long before its introduction to polite society by the college-bred youth-and rubber shod, the "jacks" are returning from the manufacturing districts, where they have dragged out a derelict existence since the river drives were completed last spring, and are flocking toward the camps. The first fall of biiow in the timber districts has attracted a large number of the woodsmen, and it is estimated that more than 10,000 swampers, sawyers, scalers, wood butchers, bull cooks and teamsters will be engaged in the forests of Minnesota and Wisconsin. Gold at Celesta Creek, An authoritative report from Lake Shuswap states that a sample of ore taken from the vicinity of Celesta creek has proved by analysis to contain a rich vein of gold and that a targe sum of money offered to the lucky finder by the representative of a Seattle syndicate has not been accepted.���Ex. -4' TWO ���V- THE CHASE TIUB1 Nl. * .

These presuppositions or factors are as follows: 1. Honesty, economy, efficiency in the organization. 2. Excellence in quality of goods. 3. Desirability of goods. J4. Adequate supply b-T&dods. {5. Proper distribution of goods. / 6. Excellence in style and method of advertising the goods. 7. Adequacy of advertising appropriation. - 8. Right choice of advertising medium. "There may be a measure of success even though some of these factors have not attained their full strength. If the third factor in the equation is fully assured, that is, if the goods are desirable, the remaining problem is to make them desired. The vital factor, the one that determines this, is the eighth, i.e., the right choice of advertising medium must be made." /. W. Adams in the Retail Grocers Review. X-..

Problems are like other tilings that grow; a tiny comes when they are ripe. Or, to change the figure, for a waile they hold off nt a distance, or slowly approach. They travel on no schedule and wo do not know just when they nre due to arrive. All at once they crowd in u]m>h ns and refuse to wait. As the year 1918 opens iu British Columbia there are three problems that press for solution. These are: the provision of increased transportation facilities to the country districts; the adjustment of the claims of the Indians to landB within tbe province; the promotion of agricultural settlement. These three, and the most insistent of these is laud settlement, The first of these three problems onr government saw coming and went out to meet before it arrived. The arrangements for the railways now building and the inauguration of a progressive roii-.l policy were steps in that direction. With wise foresight they were taken before the problem had become acute. Thnt is InWoiily reason why transportation is not to-day the most pressing need. Doubtless tbe other two problems have also been seen in the dis- fanee and their near npproa-if noted. And perhaps it is not our fault tbat they now look us iuyfhe face at close range and we have not yet got our answer rendy/ There is no reason why we should hang our heads. It would be a rp/mtonous world if all problems solved themselves. But in the begin/uing of the new year it is tha duty of every citizen to know that the problems are here and that they must be met. More tban that, it is hjfe duty to take an interest in them, a helpful interest, and so far as hejoan to aid in their solution. It will be well if by the end of the yeajf the daylight begins to show through. I A NEW LAND POLICY. There U no .nri-iriition in this Dominion thai owes so much of its prosperity to tho luricultnrists of the country ns ibe Caniidinii Pacific railway, and il is satisfactory to ohserve that, al length, they have IL wakened to a fiilizalion of this fact, nnd have decided to adopt a policy that will, to a reWuiaUe extent, prove reciprocal. Their vacant lands will be uo longer available for the outside speculator, but will be sold only to lionii title settlers; and, in order to encourage speed* settlement liy the liest das* oi farmers available, they "ill extend the period of payment for tluii* lauds from ten to twenty years. A further advantage offered is in the shape of loans to enable Farmers to erect suitable buildings upon their holdings, and to purchase the foundation for the building up of herds, of cattle. These loans will be restricted to a max* iinum of two thousands dollars, repayable in twenty years, and bearing interest al the rate of six per cent per annum, the same rate of interest being charged on deferred purchase rat-'s. In order to further assist fa liner with live stock antl ling agriculturist the benefit of free advice from experts engaged at the various demonstration farms. All these facilities lire open for settler- from the I'ritish Isles, the United Slates, and the countries of northern Europe. The Canadian Pacific railway are lo he congratulated upon the adoption of so excellent a policy; liecanse, while they are looking to the en- coiiragemeiil of early settlement upon their unsold seven millions of acres of farm lands, with the transportation advantages inseparable from the occupation and cultivation of those lauds, they are extending to future settlers advantages which will rentier fanning successful from the outset and will enable many who under ordinary circumstances, would never expect to become landholders to become landowners and stock raisers under the most advantageous conditions, practically guaranteeing their comfort and lack of financial embarrass uent from the outset. ��� Calgary News-Telegram. settlement, the company will furnish each IKiultry at cost price, nt the same tiuleaffori Will Not Use Hindoos. *. New Westminster, Dec. 28.���The process of elimination as regards the employment of Hindoos in their saw mill has been steadily going on at the Small & Bucklin mill, one of the largest in the city, and the white man is fast taking their places. About a third of the dusky forces have been displaced by the white man in the last few months and eventually the Hindoos in that mill will be a minus quantity. Mr. Bucklin states that they have found that white men are just as easy to secure as the Hindoos and as on the other side of the line they have given every satisfaction, they decided to try this as an, experiment. Later, they found the change so beneficial that they have made it a fixed rule. THE PR0ILEM OF LAND SETTLEMENT In solving the problem raised by the need of rural population in British Columbia there is no precedeut to follow. The colonization of the forest slopes of Ainerioii facing the Atlantic furnishes no parallel. On those slopes the farmer and the farm prepared the way and the city came when the country needed it. Here ou the Pacific slope the opposite holds. Tne citieB came first and grew out of all proportioi to the agricultural settlement. Now they need a prosperous farming population to sustuin their trade und feed their workers. And the need is immediate. We want our forests turned into fields and orchards. We look for the work that in the east was done iu a century to be accomplished bere in a decade. And who is prepared to say that it is not possible? To thoBe who have watched the progress of tlie Pacific province in the last ten years the meaning of the word impossible has gradually narrowed. Two methods of attacking the problem appear to be open. The oiu is by individuals unsupported by capital, the other by corporations or persons witb large financial resources. The first availed unaided to subjugate the eastern forests, a conquest in which time was scarcely a factor. Here it must be supple, inented if not replaced by the second. Poor men iu large numbers will not go on the laud. In the early eastern days they had to do it or starve. In British Columbia to-day a better living can be more easily made iu other occupations. When a poor man takes a pre-emption ten to one it is almost a pure speculation. He may not aim to become a fanner, But there is no other way in which he can accumulate such a valuable property in so short a time. With the weapons at his command a prolonged war must be (raged and he must sacrifice himself for the generation that shall come after. Will he do it? Not much Most of the productive effort in the way of farming in this province so far has lieiii hacked by ample capital. The most effective work has often been done where corporations cleared and cultivated the farms and then sold small holdings to the farmers iu such a state that 11 living could be made from the start. It looks as if this method must be the main dependence if the next decade is to see the forests give place to cultivated farms. By all means give the individual settler of small means a chance to make a home for himself, and aid the industrious in every possible way. Let us not imagine, however, that to make the acquisition of land easy will solve the problem of land settlement, Tbe heart of the problem lies in milking lift* on the soilns pleasant and profitable as it is in the cities. To do this money must he sunk in the land without hope of any return of the principal for a generation to come. We have tried to state t he terniB of the problem; the solution remains to be worked out. Golden Land Agent. Golden, B. C, Dec. 28.��� James G. Cody haa been appointed Dominion sub- land agsnt at Golden, an office create! by the decision of the federal goveni ment to establish an office here in port} nection with the administration of Ihi homesteads and townsites in the railway belt. Mr. Cody is well known and highly respected throughout this district and the appointment has met with much favor at the hands of the public. The visible supply of poetry in Btorage at the Tribune office is still ahead of the figures for this week last year, notwithstanding tbe quant* ity that iu this issue is passed on to the ultimate consumer. Revelstoke, "the capital of the Canadian Alps," iB an ambitious young city. Following tbe fashion set by little old New York, it has chieved a full grown police scandal, with a commission to make an investigation. Two men were hotly discuissing the merits of a book. Finally, one of them himself an author, Baid to the other: "No, John, you can't appreciate it. You never wrote a book yourself." "No," retorted John, "and I never laid an egg, but I'm a better judge of an omletthan any hen in the States.' Try Pritchard From' 'Love Lyrics and Other Poems," by Chas. Thompson. This is one of the "other poems." If you feel like a-coming this way come a-running Don't write or waste money to phone You have our permission Under this one condition You don't sit in the corner and groan. Then if you can hustle, And have lots of muscle And want to get close to the earth, Come to Pritchard and settle, Show folks you have mettle, We'll honor the full of your worth. Don't act like a monkey, And bring your pet flunkey, Or wear breeches that stop Ht the knee, If you do, rich or broke, We'll take you for a joke, Shipped here to us over the Heus, Don't brag of your station, In the life of that nation, That assisted in giving you birth, To you its no credit if your father led it It adds not to your personal worth. So make a selection of some quarter section, And live like us savages here And feel satisfaction, When you get into action, Of having a conscience that's clear. The Passing of the Year The year ninteen hundred and twelve Has served its time and gone, Gone, never to return again Like all before have done. It took with it ita pleasures, Its happy smile and tears Its many bitter partings, And all its hearty cheers. It brought us one year nearer To our Eternal home, It sent some of our loved ones Out in this world to roam. Many blessings have been scattered, Many troubles have been borne Since we below have witnessed The last bright new year morn. Let us make the best of this year And enjoy life while it lasts, Hope that better days are coming And forget the dreary past. E. R. Bradley. OFFICIALS OF CHASE CENTRAL BOARD OF TRADE. President: A.

The Canadian farmers' creed, given below, through written nearly half a century ago, is still being printed on cards, and distributed among the advanced pupils of the Canadian public schools; 1.���We believe in small farms and thorough cultivation. 11.���We believe that soil loves to eat, as well as its owner, and ought therefore to be liberally fed. 111.���We believe in large crops, which leave the land better than they found it, making farmers and the farm both glad at once. IV.���We believe in getting to the bottom of things, and therefore in deep ploughing, and enough of it; all the better with a subsoil plough. V.���We believe that every farm should own a good farmer. VI. ���We believe that the best fertilizer for any soil is the spirit of industry, enterprise, and intelligence. Without this, lime and gypsum, bones and green manure, marl and guano will be of little use. Vll.��� We believe in good fences, good barns, good farmhouses, good orchards, and children enough to gather the fruit. Vlll.���We believe in a clean kitchen, a neat wife in it, and a clear conscience, A. S. Farris made a trip to Kamloops yesterday. F. Burling is spending a couple of days at the home of Rev, Geo.

Carl Sandahl, the accomplished chef at Hegg's' camp at Bear Creek, came down for New Year's and is spending a few days at his home here. E. H. Clarke, formerly doing a wholesale commission business in lumber at Winnipeg, has been engaged by the Adams River Lumber Company as trav elling salesman. He takes the place of L. G. Delameter, who has severed his connection with the company, Ted Jones took a last leap year chance on Friday last when he went to Celista to attend the dance given by Mr. and Mrs. T. Brown in honor of the marriage of their daughter Jean to Ernest Buckingham. It is hard to tell whether the happy smile he wore when he returned was caused by his escape or his capture. Reports from Martin Prairie say the dance there on New Year's eve was a complete success. The music furnished by the Chase orchestra was of the best. All arrangements for a good time had been carefully made, and connected in in Buch a way as to reflect great credit on the committee in charge. Mr McCormick of Penticton is vfciiing his cousin, Mr. Willard Jones. Mr. McCormick is an expert fruit packer and orchard specialist. He believes this section is destined to become an important fruit raising district as the conditions here could scarcely be improved upon. FIVE Ex-Premier Still Works. At Belleville, on Dec. 28.

Communications and questions to the column will be welcomed, though the necessary time must S 0, C. be allowed for them to be answered. The Tribune is not responsible for opinions expressed by the editor of the "Woman's Column." The first seal of u trolley car once did duty as a penitent bench while a male relative ialored to brill;; us to a sense of our short-comings. We showed a wicked unconcern until he touched on our tendency to slang. Then conviction came, bringing with it that sorrow that worketh repentance. Our eyes fell. "It is a fierce habit, sure," we murmured, "But please don't chew the rag any more. I promise to cut it out." One New Year's morning is fresh in memory. An acquaintance waspresent- ing to an admirtngparliament of friends the customary budget of resolutions. "And, girls," she finished impressively, "not another word of slang passes my lips. You will tell me, won't you, every time you hear me make a break?' Her bewilderment at the shout that followed this lasted for nearly ten minutes. Does the use of slang argue a low grade of thinking and a doubtful moral standard? Many good people think so, and we might agree with them were it not for some experiences that have taught us a thing or two. We are told that it is the native language of the underworld. Perhaps it is; we don't know. People like Lefty Louie and Gyp the Blood are not among our intimate friends' We do know, however, one splendid, clean cut fellow of nineteen. He uses slang. While acting as night watchman around a group of buildings he once met a comrade on his way to a disgraceful act. "See here, old man." he said, "you're in'wrong." Now that boy couldn't have preached a moral homily to save his life. He would have made an awkward job of giving a little good advice. In this case probably neither would have availed. But his crisp, slangy statement of the other's position as it appeared to him hit the mark and saved his friend from a downward plunge. Another story we remember. This time the actors were a group of middle- aged, well educated women. One of them, through reverses of fortune, had been compeAled to take a position as a I working housekeeper. Now there had "Come an opening for work better suited to her talents and training. With the prospect of a change her menial position seemed intolerable, and we were loud in advising her to withdraw from it immediately. This would leave her employer in a hard place, but she felt that ahe owed him little consideration. While we talked, the tinniest woman in the party hail gazed into space with the expression of one who is seeing visions. We always gave her the last word whon she looked like that. At length she spoke. "It's up to you, Jennie, to feed those Martins' faces fnr three weeks longer. Get on toyourjob; don't be a quitter. The Lord will give you strength. "We wondered, as we heard her, how any other course had seemed possible to honorable women. Much of our slang is a translation of the world's wisdom into the vernacular. The old woman whose favorite Bible verse was "Grin and bear it" wasn't far mistaken. The words may not be in the Bible, but the book is full of their sentiment. "It's up to you to make good." Put the doctrine of personal responsibility more neatly than that if you can. "Get busy" and "Get on your job" contain the gist of all the essayists have written about the duty and privilege of work. "That's the limit" expresses, not very piously, a belief in a Providence who keeps the balance even. Who wants better praise on liis tombstone than that splendid westerner had when his fellows carved above him that "He did his damnedest,'' A little cheerful slang takes the edge uff many a grim moment in life. We once heard a man with organic heart disease making cheerful arrangements for his widow when he should be "planted." "Look outor you'll pass in your checks before they're due," said a jolly doctor. The patient laughed and promised to be careful. Had his case been stated to him in dictionary English he would literally have "had a fit." We trust this letter will not be mistaken as a plea for the use of slang. We consider it a bad habit. If your daughter uses it, remonstrate with her If your son does not use it consult a physician about him without delay. If you, a middle-aged woman, have acquired the habit, the sooner you cut it out the better. Justitia ADVENTURlf. (Continued from page three). Areu''.

THE CHASE Tllirtl'V SEVBS EIGHT THE CHASF TBIRI-'VT f. \ From Our Neighbours Items Gathered by Our Special Correspondents Sorrento Pritchard. Mr. and Mrs. Davidson and family and Hr. and Mrs. Frank St. George, are expected back from Montreal next week. Mr. and Mra. Charles Coubeaux left Sorrento on the 23rd. and sailed from Vancouver on the Zelandia on Xmas Day for a few month's visit tu Honolulu. Leaving their only son with Miss Rhodes, until their return. Mr. and Mra. J. Kinghorn held high festival for their children at Spes Bons un Xmas eve, when the lovely tree abounded in gifts for children of all ages, who had come from far and near to meet Santa Clsus. And he arrived in dramatic style, just as the tree waa lit, amidst a great ringing of sleigh-bells and patter and slid down the bannisters into the great hall. There was a happy time for visitors und pupils ut the closing exercises of the Sorrento public school. The schoolroom had been decorated by the pupils who were in party attire, and who showed a good progress in their studies, by their answers to Miss Rhodes, to Trustee Jackson, and by their papers and maps. Then, when the examination was over, Mrs. Jackson served tea, assisted by Miss Dickey, amidst speeches from the desk by Mr. Jackson and Mr. Reedman of Blind Bay. The Rev. S. L. Carrington of Texas, took service in St. Mary's church, on Christmas Day and delivered an original and thrilling sermon on the old message "Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men." The reverend gentleman ia a writer of repute, has published much, and being also a fluent and able speaker, he easily carries his hearers with him whatever his subject may be.

Mr. Ted Jones paid a visit to Celiata on Friday last to attend the wedding dance of Mr. and Mrs. Buckingham^ All were pleased to see "Ted" buck ti'i'iiin to his own native home, (especially the fair sex). At the meeting of the Farmer's Institute on the 27th Dec, the following officers were elected for the coming year. William Thompson President, William Reddy Vice Piesident, R. W. Reid Secretary and Treasurer and Messrs Jinks, Noakes, Stevens, Committee. The concert, Christmas tree, and i dance held in theschool house on Christ- fnas. eve was a huge success. A play entitled "Pumpkin Ridge" was very! cleverly executed and created consider- j able merriment. Those who took parts were the Misses Orsers and Miss Kate Thompson, Messrs. Fowler, Brown, Thompson and Riley. Dancing was j kept up until 4.80 in the morning. Mr. and Mrs. Tlios, Brown Hr. gave a Wedding dance on the 27th in honor of their daughter Jeannie, who was mar- i it'll at Chase on Christ man day, to] Knit'st Buckingham. Never in the his-) tory of Celiata lias there been Buch a ! crowd at a dance. The school house could accommodate only about half of tin; dancers. Oliver Freeman came; over from Blind Bay with his launch, j and when he had disgorged his cargo, j it was found he had brought over twenty-live people.

In the shade of Beulah Mountain. Mr. Arthur Phillips, Mrs. Phillips and her sister Miss Campbell left for Vancouver on the noon train Friday where they will remain for two weeks before returning to Pritchard. James Amey, is doing great work in the log hauling business these days. The amount of snow on the ground makes logging a money making proposition this winter, Edward JolifTe was a Pritchard caller Sunday. To watch him climb a hill through the snow is to believe that he has invented some device to neuteralize the lawB of gravity. Basil and Percy Carr, who have for the past several months been connected with the survey crew which was doing the location work for the double-tracking of the C. P. R., returned to their home here on Christmas eve. They are expecting to spend the winter at this place. The dance at the Duck Range sehool- house was largely attended by men, but there was a shortage of the gentler sex, only about half a dozen ladies being present. This would serve as a shock to some of the bachelors who attended as they would no doubt reason that this was their last chance to be the recipient of a leap year proposal. On Christmas Day Albert Cook and Miss Grace McCrea were married at Chase. Mr. Cook ia one of our progressive homesteadet'B who haa been residing at Pritchard for about two years. Mr. and Mrs. Cook have the good wishes of the entire community. We pray that they shall be happy and prosperous and live long enough to eat the goose that picks the grass off their grave. A sleigh ride party consisting of Mr, Edward Anderson, Alex Olsen, Master Eddie Martin, Mrs. C. Martin and Mrs. Anderson, drove out this way Thursday and spent the day with C.

Mr. Anderson stay.d over a day to shoot rabbits and he sure made the fur fly getting a rabbit every shot, and he shot numerous times. Mr. Anderson and his rabbits left for Chase on the train Friday evening. A sleigh load of Chase people on the way to the dance at Duck Range on Friday evening got tangled up in the brush on one of the timber berths near the site of the old Monarch mill, and were hopelessly lost when they were discovered by a good Samaritan, who piloted them clear of the woods and directed them to the schoplhouse, oidy, as he had heard nothing about the dance, it was to the Martin Prairie schoolhouse where his advice took them, so I suppose that accounts for at least one sleigh load of Chase people being absent from the festivities, Salmon Arm West.

F, Woodland left last week on a trip to Ottawa. He will return in the spring | and bring Hazel with him. Mr. Palmer's son Tom left on Tuesday night to spend New Yeur's at the coast.

IN 1,975 Miles Constructed by Three Trunk Lines in 1912 at the Cost of $30,000,000 All records for railroad construction work in western Canada have been eclipsed this year. The three chief roads, the G. T. P., the Canadian Northern, and the Canadian Pacific, have completed in the neighborhood of 1976 miles, at an expenditure of almost 130, 000,000 in the west. Next year they expect to complete 2700 more miles at a cost of nearly $41,000,000. During the year 630 miles was added to the system of the C. P. R. In the coming year the company plans to grade and track between 1000 and 1100 more miles. The Canadian Northern laid the most track during 1912 with 983 miles of Bteel. They hope to lay another 1000 miles in the coming year. Ab for Canada's newest transcontinental, it put down 459 miles of track this season. For next year the company hopes to put down 600 or 600 more miles. The double tracking of the C. P. R. is the biggest work upon which that company is at present engaged. It has been rushed and now the second track between Port Arthur and Kemnay, a point in Manitoba just west of Brandon, is practically completed. It has also been progressing well between Regina and Chaplin, Ogden and Sunalta, and Hammond and Vancouver. Surveys for the extra track right through to the coast are nearing completion and the road plans to rush the work of double tracking right through to the coast and between Calgary and Kemnay next year. Among the chief works commenced or completed by the C.-P. R. this year are the $1,600,000 hotel being erected in Calgary, the Ogden shops at Calgary, enlargement of Calgary depot, reconstruction and enlargement of the Vancouver terminal and station yards at Coquitlam, high level bridge and eight- story office building in Edmonton, new office building in Saskatchewan, and a $1,000,000 coal handling plant at Fort William. The C. P. R. proposes to complete the Vancouver terminal work, the Ogden shops, the hotel at Calgary and the nev-f waiting room and offices at Victoria this coming year. The C. N, R. is rushing branch lines to completion in all parts of the country. As for the line between Calgary and Saskatoon it should be connected up with the Calgary yards before the end of the year. The grading of the Meld to Calgary branch of the G. T. P. is completed and the laying of track should be finished by March, 1913. As well, a number of other lines throughout the west have been lu'id by the three roads during the year. Business Man's Health. In London a few years ago a conference was held under the auspices of the Incorporated Institute of Hygiene, to discuss the health of the business man. Sir Thomas Crosby, the Lord Mn>or ot London and a medical man of some note, said that during an experience of sixty years' practice in the city, he had remarked a great change of viewB with regard to the city office toiler, and he believed thrt the health of the clerk was at the present time well looked after, One of the medical men present argued that hurry at meals should be avoided, and he also deprecated the con sumption of meat in the middle of the day. Others found that the high-Strung nerves of many city workers were a fruitful source of dyspepsia. Another speaker said that the business man ate less and drank less than formerly and consequently enjoyed better health. Most of the speakers expressed the opinion that hut little should be eaten in tlie middle of the day and some seemed I to think that two good meals in the day I were quite sufficient. The most impor- tant part of the London conference was * that which dealt with the eating and drinking question. A man who does i not take enough exercise or who does j not perform sufficient manual labor to i enable him to digest and assimilate a [ large quantity of food and particularly j flesh food, should be very careful as to j quality and quantity of food he ingests. | Such a man does not require much meat j and after a certain age the less meat he eats the better will it be for him and as- j suredly he should not eat much in the! middle of the day���for the matter of j that he should not drink much, either. I As for exercise, that is a more debat- able point. The majority of business j men take too little regular exercise and many sporadically take too much. In j this instance the personal equation is almost all important. Try a Tribune want ad.
