SEE MY SELECTION OF "DDYS BEFORE PURCHASING ELSEWHERE Special Showing of Coal and Wood Heaters Tommy Nakanishi It was the last night ot the Old Year! Knee deep lay the spotless untrodden snow over the fields and hedges; on tbe branches ot the skeleton-like trees, whose gaunt, grim arms looted like the antlers of a herd of deer, hung the frost, in a thousand crystal stars, that vied with the brilliant beau'.y of their brethren ln heaven—clear-cut and glittering, they | gleamed aloft like the supernatural glory that hovers over somo fairy j mino. i Like to an Egyptian queen canopied j in state sailed the Won, floating as If ll wore ou an ocean of blue. I Over the little peaceful country J church she stooped (as If she loved It), and touched with her beautiful tips of light its burnished spire that ! shone afar like a polished gem; and I down below, where the clinging feet of the ivy climbed higher and higher, j she threw her majestic glance, which i at once revealed Its glistening leaves crowned with their lustrous pyramids of snow. It was a lovely night, and one never to be forgotten. Here, the little church standing peacefully alone ln the sweet tranquility of calm, whilst all around it stretched the Immense solitude of the fields and woods covered with a soft white robe of purity, flung upon the earth as a consecrated marriage-garment trom the skies. '* The spirit of the winding river was caught fast and deftly Imprisoned into a block of Ice, solid as granite; and there she lay, like a statue dedicated to an eternal silence. Very far off—as far as the human eye could reach, rose up the great city, wrapped also in an Impenetrable garment of white. Like to a city of the dead, it seemed to loom in the distance, with its wonderful towers and turrets vanishing Into cloudland. On both town and country, the great heart of Nature brooded ln breathless expectancy, waiting for the approach of Death—and yet he lingered. The minutes departed one by one, the hours "danced Into light, and died into the shade," as the sweet-voiced bells In their windy tower sent out on their vibrating tongues, the time-old message that the year was dying, dying, dying! In the sweep of the wandering wind that went ceacefully ucrosB the churchyard, could be heard the last heavy gasps that fell one by one, to be wafted away by invisible hands Into the fathomless space of a waiting eternity. It was a moment of intense sorrow, counterbalanced by a foretaste of nn approaching joy as of a cleon white scroll placed in the hands of each one of us, to make or mar as one willed; but the pages of last year's journal, which, like them, were once fair and whl.e—where were they? Alas! filled up and disfigured by blots, that looked as If many human tears of agony and shame had fallen upon them, and sought to erase all that was black and unseemly there—still the Btnlns remained, Interspersed, it is true, by a thread of gold, laid mercifully across in diverse places, emblazoned by a pitying angel's hand at the command of God. The Old Year had indeed filled up his record of joys snd sorrows, of sinners and saints; and he stood an old, old man, bent and bowed with the pressing weight of the world's grent burdens and perplexities, stooping lo write with a pen of iron tipped with gold, the word "finis" upon Its last page! Would any of his words, I wondered, be found in tbe Book of Life? I trembled ns I thought of It, for I could not but remember how many opportunities In the past, which had been given me wherein io do good, I had neglected, how many unkind thoughts and words I had wilfully spoken, how often 1 had not dono unto my neighbors as I would bo should have done unto me. But even as I thus sadly mused—for memory is a two-edged sword that cuts both ways—I could see on the edge of the horizon the imperial skirts of the New Year, vaguely longing for the time when he too should wield the sceptre of royalty and the flat of llfo; Impatient for the beginning ot his reign, and already armed to cope with difficulties ond dangers that as yet were lying In ambush. Slowly tlie little minutes passed steadily by, and the Old Year stood with reverently bent head and folded hands, longing for release. Presently the church clock pointed to the hour, and as the strokes fell one by one like the strokes on an anvil on the heart, the Old Year calmly and quietly passed away, In the joy of resignation singing as he died the swan song of his BOUl, " 81c transit Gloria Mundl I Alice E.

I know some folks wbo idly aund ud moan That "good luck never yet bu come their way," While if they'd open their eyes and look about, They'd see him at their side 'moat every day. These people stand like sticks along; life's path, With scrawling brows (the sight gives one the blues), While for "UPtuck" they can bit thank themselves— They've missed their "cues." The world was made for busy hands and brains— The worthy one who toils Is he who wins. How can one hope to win the race of life Who slowly walks and, running, ne'er begins? Prepare yourself to-day for better work, Por greater tasks tbat you may have to do; Then, when your chances come, be quick to act— Don't miss your "cue." I scorn tbe man who bas not "nerve" to stand And face his future with a hopeful eye, Who drifts along life's tide without an aim, And only lives to eat, to drink, and die. The world Is full of "chances" by the score, For higher alms, more nobler work and true, So "learn your part," and be assured ere long You'll hear your "cue." Then let us strive by bonest, faithful toil To be as great and noble as we can- It is a duty tbat we owe to our selves, To. those we love and to our fellow man. Perform your task to-day with patient care— Perchance 'twill prove a steplng stone for you; Then, wben your chance cpmee for better work, Don't miss your "cue." THK OLD AND NEW ?EAH Toll them out!

THOUGHTS 0> WISDOM The fool is willing to nay for anything but wisdom; no man buys that ot* which he supposes himself to have un abundance already.—W, G. Simms. ! Wise men are instructed by reason; j men of less understanding, by exper- I ience; the most ignorant, by necessity; anil beasts, by manure.—Cicero. ; The perfection of wisdom and the I end ot true philosophy Is to proportion : our wunts to our possesslns, our nmbi- tions to our capacities.—Silvestre. The Vamp Is Out OfJDate The passing of the fomole vamp from the moving pictures is In line with the steady tendency to get back to wholesome things. The scenario that blamed the vampire type of woman was echo of the old evangelism that proclaimed with ridiculous fervor, the ancient slander thnt woman was the source of oil evil. Following a crime the astute detectives were wont to say, "Find the woman." This theory dates back to tlie fable of Kden. Whoever wrote that Btory probably believed that woman has not a soul. "The woman tempted me, and I did eat," the "perfect" man le quoted as having said. And so the libel has crawled through the slime ot ages. A writer of paragraphs has Bald; "Every great war has been traced to the depravity of women." He goes on, in tiie Indulgence of this cheap sort of claptrap which Ib characteristic ol his kind, to say, "When a woman shows her knees you can see the HnlBh of tier and of the nation as well." What nation? Among the most virtuous of the nations are some whose women never wore anything else than short skirts. And lt is not now, and never was, what a woman wears that establishes her worth, or lack of It, but what she really Is. If these critics of an austere purity are right, It is a wonder that womanhood long ago was not driven from the refuge of nny faith whatever. They consistently have been set apart as congcnllully servants and tools ol whatever devil was to the fore ln any Human wisdom is the aggregate of all human experience, constantly accumulating, and selecting, and reorganizing its own materials.—J. Story. Even the slow man, If possessed of wisdom, has overtaken the swift in tlle pursuit, with the aid of the straightforward Justice of the immortal gods. —Theognis.

Owing to a number of our readers being interested in dogs—the better kind—and on special request we are publishing a series of short talks on dogs, taking a different breed each week. This week we will talk on the selection of a dog and give a fow pointers on the Spaniel. HOW TO SELECT ONE It is probable, were a dog allowed to interrogate his prospective master, that Ills questions would besomctblng like this: "What do you want me for?" "Where have 1 got to live?" "Who is to look after me?' For these are the main things to bear In nibid when choosing a dog. Possibly doggie himself would add two more: "Do you know how to feed me?' "Do you know how lo doctor me?" both very natural but not perlnent to this subject. Governing your choice must be the questions of place and purpose, and much misery for the dog and dissatisfaction for the master will be saved if the general characteristics of the various breeds, as outlined, In this series of articles, are carefully stud- led. The spectacle, for instance, of a dog destined by all physical and natural reasons to live a countryside life, condemned to pace a town flat, Is galling to all who know dogs. Therefore, once again, place and purpose must be given choice. Broadly, the breeds of dogs which will lie treated In these columns, can lie divided into three classes'. Sporting dogs, pure and simple. House dogs, terriers, etc., the little "pal" class. Toy dogs—dont ask them to walk too much. When selecting your dog you will, of course, want one conforming to your preconceived idea of use. But It is a difficult Job to tell the right age of a dog after he haa passed the puppy stage—say after eight months. You will have no difficulty in identifying a puppy as such. The puppy lias only 28 teeth in his set, which later give place to the adult set of 42. Still, if you can't fix exactly a dogs age, you can tell if he Is too old or too bad. Always look the dog. gift or otherwise. In the mouth. Should he look as though he wanted a dentist badly, that is, If his teeth are other than white and clean, he is not thej dog for you—he is old or he is ill,! possibly both. One of the largest, the group Includes Cocker, Field, Clumber, English Springers and Water Spaniels, there being both an English and Irish variety of the latter. The Spaniel, to bo a successful sporting dog, must be taken in hand at the puppy stage to accustom him to the report of a gun and lo retrieve. His Job is to find the game quickly and to drop to With Kind Thoughts and Best Wishes to Everyone for a Bright and Prosperous New Year hand or shot. Of course, absolute obedience must be demanded from him, and patient and kindly teaching will soon bring out his virtue. Colorings vary from tbe golden hair of the Sussex to the lemon and white of the Clumber, to the black, red or roan of the Cocker. Weights, too, vary, the Cocker being reckoned per- The Model Clothing and Shoe Store F.

Any story that Is human will succeed regardless ot whether the players wear wigs and shor pants or are garbed in pajamas. Drama waB the same in thc Seventeenth Century as It Is today. This may be the gasoline age of civilization, but lt hasn't altered human emotions appreciably. People still laugh and cry and give vent to anger. And they are still inordinately curious. In fact, we progress because we are curious. People of today wonder if in the olden days kings and queens and dukes and lords were swayed by the same passions and emotions that now rule humanity. To satisfy in a measure this curiosity we have made a celluloid reproduction of "The Three Musketeers," nnd we have crammed into it everything that is dramatic, instructive, human, amusing and entertaining. We have tried to twang every emotion In tbe human system, just as D'Artagnan did in his memoirs and as Dumas did In his great novel." The best talent procurable has been called. upon to help transcribe this great story to the aluminum sheet. Edward Knoblock, one of the greatest of contemporary playwrights, is responsible for adaptation, research and costumes, while to Fred Niblo goes the honor of directing the piece. Niblo, a born adventurer, has won distinction as a master ln guiding thc destinies of this type of play; be Is said to have no peer. Arthur Edeson, rated as a genuine lens artist, is credited with the photography and is said to have achieved some effects which hitherto have been considered Impossible. In the face of the business readjustment that the country has been facing, Fairbanks has spent more money on this production than on any picture he ever before undertook, all because he has confidence In the vehicle and In the amusement-seeking public. "The Threo Musketeers" is Bald to be the greatest picture of Its kind ever made. "The Three MUBketeers" will be screened Monday and Tuesday at the Ilo-Ilo Theatre. It is absolutely necessary In every community, in order to crow, that a community have leaders and follow those leaders. The greatest commun Ity-butlders are tbe newspapers, therefore they are the leaders and stand the brunt of the fight to make their city a larger, busier, brighter and better city. As a newspaper prospers, so will the community prosper. The way to support a newspaper is through the advertising columns. The way for a man ln business to make his business become better Is through advertising. The newspaper mau realizes this, but unfortunately some business men are so blind that they cannot realise that In order to Bucceed themselves tbey must use modern business methods In building their business—which means advertising. Every young man and woman needs a business education. The best place to get It Is at the Sprott-Shaw Business College, Nanaimo. Write for prospectus.

An enlightened age has gradually brought now labor-saving devices to assist her—the greatest of which is the Electic Range. McCLARY'S ELECTRIC RANGE has exclusive features that further reduce women'.* burdens, saving time, labor and anxiety. There is the Protected Element—the Element il the burner, where the heat comes from. Like other Electric Appliances, the heat is radiated from wire coils, but the Protected Element snugly encloses these coils in porcelain to save them from carelessness or accidental upsets. Therefore, McCLARY'S Protected Element lasts longer, as acids, moisture and grease cannot harm it. It heats quickly and holds the heat long after the power is turned off. The wonderful seamless, round-cornered Oven— not a nick or crevice in its smooth, even, impenetrable, glassy enamelled interior. lAs sanitary as any enameled Interior. As sanitary as any enameled utensil, rust resisting, cleanly. Racks and rack holders removable. Elements swing on hinges, so that entire surface of oven is clear for cleaning. The Oven has a 1% in. insulation around the side and a l'/a in. magnesia block insulation in the door— this holds the heat in oven. Roasts and baked foods retain their full flavor. The result is better baked foods with minimum shrinkage. Warming Oven with small element inside. Signal lights to show whether current for Oven is on or off. Switches for elements plainly marked.

Tho talkative often do more barm, all unintentionally, than | the wilfully false aud malicious. It 1 is almost impossible for talkative peo- I pie to avoid gossip, which was amu- 1 singly described by tlle child who said, ! "It's when nobody don't' do nothing, and somebody goes and tells it." Nothing Ib so easy to start as tT falsi1 report. Just because a woman while buying a broom wanted oue with n heavy and strong handle, it waa reported by ail tbe neighbors that' she wus In the habit of beating her hus- buuil! We have all been sadly amused by "The Autobiography of a Scandal," and reminded how true Ib the Baying, "Ot thy unspoken word thou art muster! thy spoken word Is muster lot thee," and thnt we should be as careful of our words ns of our actions; und UK fur from speaking as from doing evil. We bave no more right to ! say un unkind word to a mnn than we | hnve to knock him down. We have no more right to say to another an impure word—that is to say, to poison hlm through his ear—than wc hnve to poison him through his mouth. Anecdotes Illustrating ttie Beauty of Silence. "Why, Doctor," exclaimed a shallow, talkative ludy, wbo was in the room with Dr. Johnson, but of whom he took little notice, "I believe you prefer tlie company of men to that of ladies." "Madam," he replied, "I am fond of the company of ladles; I like their beauty, I like their delicacy, and I like their silence." "How will you have your hair cut, sir?" nsked a barber. "In silence," was tlie reply. Tbe Silence of Great Men. Tennyson, ut one time, often paid a visit to Carlyle, at Chelsea. On one of these occasions these two great men, having gono to Carlyle's library to have n quiet chat together, seined themselves on each side of the fireplace, und lit their pipes. And there for two hours they sat, plunged in profound meditation, the silence being unbroken save for'the little, dry, regular sound that the lips of the smokers made, as they sent puffs of smoke soaring to tho ceiling. Not one single word broke the silence. After two bonis of this strange converse between these two great souls that understood each other without speech, Tennyson roso to lake leave ot his host. Curylyo went with him to the door; and then, grasping bis hand, uttered these words—"Eh, Alfred, we have bad a grand night! Come again soon." A young man was sent' to Socrates to learn oratory. On being introduced to the orator, he talked so incessantly that Socrates asked for double fees. "Why charge me double?" asked the young man. "Because," said Socrates, "I uiUBt teach you two sciences—the one liow to speak, and the other how to hold your tongue." Hannah More nnd Tulc-Uearing. Hannah More had' a good way of managing tale-bearers. It Is said that whonever she was told anything de- rogolory of another, her Invariable reply wus, "Come, we will go and ask If this is true." The effect waB sometimes ludicrously painful. The talebearer was taken aback, stammered out a qualification, or begged tbat' no notice might be taken of the statement. But the good lady was Inexorable; off she took the scandalmonger to the scandalized, to make inquiry nnd compare accounts. It Ih not very likely that anybody ever n second time ventured to repent a gossipy story to Hannah More. Milton being asked If he intended to icadi his daughters languages, replied, "No. one tongue Is enough for a woman." COMOX TAILOR DYE WORKS CLEANING . PRESSING T. YONEDA COURTENAT Phono 14 P. O.

CLOSING EXERCISES FOR THE ENTRANCE CLASSES A very enjoyable evening was spent by the Barents ot the Entrance Class pupils on Friday evening last. Owing to lack of suitable accommodation at tbe school the closing exercises were held tn the Anglican ChUrch Hall, at 7:30 p.m. The pupils, under Principal A. H. Webb, and Vice-Principal G. E. Apps, put on some excellent songs, carols and drills. A laughable dialogue entitled "Taking the Census" was creditably rendered by Alma Conrod and her family, assisted by Census-taken Albert Gomm. The outstanding event of the evening was a presentation to Mr. Apps, who gets married on January 3rd. Mr. Webb introduced the subject and Miss J. E, Robertson, with a very ap- proplate little speech, made the actual presentation, Mr. Webb addressed those present with regard to the standard of the pupils, the methods of teaching and the objects he and the teachers had In view. The remainder of the evening was spent in games and dancing. At the close hearty cheers were given for the teaching staff. Messrs. Webb and Apps provided the ball and the pupils provided dainty refreshments. This Is the flrst meeting of the kind and the pupils are on the lookout for another. DIV. XII.—Primary Grade—Teacher, J.

News of Courtenay District Thursday night was children's night in Courtenay, the scholars of the public school entertaining their parents and treinds at a splendidly arranged and carried out entertainment at the Gaiety Tbeatie. The meritorious programme presented certainly showed that the teachers and pupils had put their hearts Into the work ot preparing for the Christmas events. There were choruses, recitations, playlets and vaudeville turns of surprising cleverness. Charlie Chaplin was present in the person of Master Jack Maclntyre, and his mimicry was supreme. Master Frank Hurford recited "Blnkie and Me." The playlet "The Old Man Next Door," was cleverly performed, the acting of all the principals being all that could be desired. Miss Beatrice Catelpole and Master Harold Tull were particularly good, the cleverness of their acting bringing forth rounds of applause. "The Toy Maker" was cleverly put on and there must have been long and patient service on the part of the teachers to make the arrangements so complete. The toy soldiers were possibly the most enjoyable part of this performance, the nine boys taking part certainly carrying themselves like the objects they were representing. Master Morson, as major of the regiment, created much merriment by his ability to entertain. A chorus of eight girls, Dorothy Hames, Kathleen and Eileen Moore, Ann Alice Moncrlelf, Burnadlne Shannon, Muriel Leighton, Catherine Beattie, Gladys Perez, Thelma Walker and Kitty Williams, was greatly enjoyed. Sidney Williams as the Toy- maker was extremely good. Four Teddy Bears, Masters John Surgenor, Harold Herd, Jack, Hames and Wilfred Anderton, also put on a pleasing stunt. The entertainment was as enjoyable as only children's concerts can be, and was attended by a full house. The teachers certainly deserve a great deal of credit for the performance as a whole, and are receiving congratulations on every hand.

BANFF, Alta.—A survey of suitable aerodrome and landing sites In connection with a proposed aeroplane, patrol in Banff and Kootenay National! Parks has been completed by the Act- Ing Director of the Air Force and the j Inspector of Canadian National Parks, j An aerodrome site near Canmore in i Banff National Purk and eight other essential landing places were selected ! In the two parks, as well as a number of emergency and non-essential landing grounds. With the opening, of the Banff-Windermere motor highway across the Rockies, and the resulting Increase in traffic through the parks the lire hazard will be considerably enhanced and it is believed that the establishment of an aeroplane patrol service will be of great importance in this connecUon. Owing to the mountainous nature ot* the country the regular warden service is handicapped In its patrol work and tlle feasibility of aeroplanes hi augmenting the service has been under consideration by tlle Department of the Interior for some time. §>ea$ovC$ « greetings - Appreciating our Pleasant Business Relations with you during the Past Year, We Wish You the Compliments of the Season and Trust that the Coming Year will bring the Best you have ever known in Health, Happiness and Prosperity. ?3€*g«lCt««tsf!s^^ Burns & Brown B. & B.
