We regret to announce tho sad intelligence of the death of Mrs. Rebecca S. Harvey, ^he wife of Mr. Thomas Harvey, of this city. The deceased, who was 06 years of age, has been residing iu Revelstoke for a number of years, being a faithful attendant of St. Peter's church, and jusl prior to her death had been suffering from serious internal complaints. Mrs Harvey was pu', under an operation yesterday morning but succumbed later, never really rallying. Considerable sympathy is felt generally for the bereaved husband, who has for a number of years been em ployed in or near the city, and who is broken down at his sad loss. The funeral will take place tomorrow after noou at two o'clock from the residence on Third street, for St. Peter's church. The deceased was a well known tigure in cur midst and ,the breaking up of the home of this aged couple is a sad blow to the husband left behind. The .Maii.-Hkkai.ii joins with Mr. Harvey's many friends in met.ages of condolence for his lereavement. SHIRT WAIST DANCE Rebekah Lodge Holds Successful Function The shirt waist dance under the auspices of Rebekah Lodge, No. 21, held in the opera bouse on Friday, Nov. 20th, was a marked success, both in the matter of attendance and enjoyment while in progress. The hall had received special attention, the decorations being artistic and elaborate. Prominent over the stage were displayed the "links" the emblem of the Order, with its colors. The general scheme was a credit to those who arranged the decorations. The independent Band was in fine form and provided first rate music. Refreshments were served at midnight and were of a nature that pleased everybody. The dance was perhaps one of the mod popular events of the season and the Rebekahs have every reason to congratulate themselves on their undertaking. CONVENTION TERMINATED School Trustees Conclude Their Labors—Election of Officers. Final Debates.—Next Meeting at Chilliwack. Diirin,' 'lie afternoon session iiii Thursday, .uv. lOtb, ol tlm Sohool Trustees Convention, Dr, Robinson Supt. ol Education, was introduced to the delegates. In addressing the convention be snid Hint ho did not wish to hamper the disoussion by his presence as u Covernment offiolal. He referred to the free text, books staling that the Government had tried to he lair to all. In touching on the salaries of teachers he pointed out that it was the business uf trustees who should pay tlieir teachers well and increase tlieir pay when necessary. He said he was glad that B. 0. as a whole hud received the new School Act well which wis (or the advancement of i dticutional interests. A vote of thanks wns passe 1 to Dr. Robinson for his address who then stilted that the number of tch ol inspectors would be increased. A long discussion then arose over the Hug qui si inu. Moved by Maxwell Smith and seconded by R. C. Hodgson (on behalf of the joint kchool beards of Itirnaby, South Vanoouver, Richmond and Point Grey. " Resolved that the Bohool trustees of British Columbia in convention assembled do hereby record tlieir strong disapproval of the action of the Minister of Education in ignoring the repeated requestB of this Association and individual boards to make the Hying of the Canadian ensign over the public schools of this ptovince obligatory; And, whereas, his orders to trustees and teachers dated at Victoria, July 1908, to fly the Union Jack, was in direct opposition to their requests and tantamount to ordering down the Canadian ensign which "uud already been hoisted br a number of the boards of school trustees; Bo it therefore further resolved thai this convention respectfully requestB tbe Minister of Education to withdraw the orders to trustees and teachers dated July, 1908." Mr. Smith, ic moving tbis resolution, said: " In speaking to this resolution, when we refer to the Minister of Education for British Columbia and criticize his ollicial acts, it must be distinctly undersiood that we are not throwing any bricks at the genial Dr. Young as an individual. And when we say thut the Canadian ensign has a status both on land and sea and is calculated to promote a healthy, patriotic Canadian sentiment in the minds of the rising generation when flown from the llngstutl's ol the public schools, you must hear iu mind that the grand old Union Jack is not on trial and needs no defence. The plain Union Jack has its place as symbolising the union of three kingdom!) ol England, Ireland and Scotland, which has meant su much to the cause of civilization mid the promotion of peace in the world, and the Canadian ensign has its place us symbolizing the union of the various provinces of British North America into one grand federation under the protection and guidance of the Mother country; an example tu the world of a nation born in peace. On January 15th, 1908, 1 wrute an article.which was published iu lhe Vancouver News-Advorti-er, World and Province the following day, and which I will uow read for the information of the convention. NunuroiiB letters have since been written on the subject reiterating the same things with a lew additiona points. The latest is a booklet published hy Mr. F.C. Wade, of our terminal city of Vancouver. In dealing with voice ol public sentiment in this matter he suid that the wishes ol the people must be considered and should not go unheeded, and the Canadian emblem cannot be done away with. He cited the fact that the British admiralty had recog ni/.i'd the Canadian ensign as the flag of Canada at the luneral ol the late M. Prclontaine. He pointed out that the order came from the minister of education and not from an order- in-council. The Canadian ensign has by long usage become tho national flag ol Canada and must remain so aud it would bo shameful to sweep TRADES AND LABOR COUNCIL Advocate Abolition of the Ward System in Revelstoke A well attended meeting of the Hevelstoke Trades and Labor Council wus held iu the eily hull OU Sulunity evening, Presidont F, I!. Mitohell In the cliuir. The inulls council me preparing to take un active inlerc.t in the coming munioipal elections, and an Important disoussion took place in regard tn the sdvisablliy ol ah dialling the present waul system, This would mean thai instead of each waul eliding iwn representatives, as at present, to ttieal- ilrrniiinie, hoard, that six aldermen would be electud by lho city as a whole. The chief arguments against I lac present system aro the inequality ul representation, sud the prevalence uf sectionalism. For instance, a ward with, say, one hundred residents, has the same voice in tlie administration of the city's affairs, as the ward with five or Bix times that population, Again, by electing men to represent the whole city, instead of a portion thereof, thejjaeotional feeling, which iB so evident ut times, would be eliminated. During the discussion it was pointed out that, the city oi Kamloops had adopted thi- system three or four years ago, and it was found to work most satisfactorily. After full discussion it was decided that the Trades and Labor Council of Revelstoke put itself on record as being in favor of ihe abolition of tbe ward system, believing it to he in the best interests of the city, and that an effort be made at once to bring this about. In order to make suoh a change it will be necessary to present a petition to the cily council, bearing the signatures of property owners representing u majority of the total assessed value uf the city. Upon this lieing done it will be up to the council tu introduce and pass the necessary bylaw making the change. Petiiions are being circulated this week by a co hinittei of the trades council in order to obtain the mces aary content of a majority of the ratepayers so th.it the inu I ler can be laid befure the next meeting of the cily council. CHRISTMAS COMING! Revelstoke Merchants Preparing for the Holidays Oue month from to-day will be Xmas Day. The merchants of Revelstoke this year are looking for good times and steady Xmas trade, While wo understand ii is not the intention to cany large stocks this year, the quality andjehoice will be everything to be desired. Revelatoke has always been considered a first-clans shipping centre, because the merchants huve always made it a point tu have the guilds .in bund ihut people want at holiday season. It pays to buy from your home merchant because you can actually see the goods you are purchasing which ii nut the case when gouds ure ordered ' from a catalogue house,and besides in most cases tie co t is just as low as there is no I'Xptessor duty to pay. Tlie Kevelstoke inerehauts are not afraid to buy good goods and it is sale to say that this Christmas no better stuck will be fuiind between Winnipeg un.d V- oouver than those that will bu s*.r.....i by the local merchants.

Apropos, of the movement on loot by the Trades and Labor Council in the city to abolish the ward Bystem, much can be said in favor oi both but it is a difficult matter, now that tbe ward system has been in force so long in Ueve'stoke. to see just how the public will lake it. If we could be certain that all this idiotic and harmful cliquisni and sectionalism, now so rampant in this city would be eliminated by- doing away with wards, then by all means let us huve the change. Wards are invariably jealous oi each other and the wants of one seem to be the wants of all. Revelstoke is a diliicult city to administer and were she more compact then wards aud their accompanying discords could perhaps be done away with. Where public works are concerned friction among EDUCATION ANI) POLITICS One feature in connection with the B. C. School Trustees' Convention held in this city last week was the fact that there was a decided tendency among the delegates to allow themselves to be swayed by politicalinlert'sts. Those present who were connected with the education deportment in nn indirect way naturally ul luu oil their thoughts anil expressions to follow along the lines set by the provincial government. It must not be understood that in calling attention to this fact anything derogatory to the department in tbe matter of furthering education is intended, but those who followed the deliberations of the convention could not help but notice that the presence of ollicial and semi-official members of the education department of the province considerably influenced the general feeling of the convention. We would take it that a meeting cf school trustees should be confined only to trustees and while the co-operation of officials act as a means of information and advice to trustees in their work, yet at lhe same time, it is hardly likely that these ollicials will allow anything to go against the interests of the department. Trustees should deliberate, unhampered by any political bias, for the good of their association and for the welfare of teachers, school children I, O. F. Court Mount Begbie.

Industries Well Received at London A novel and up-to-date form of advertisement of British Columbia is daily to be seen at the Crystal Palace near Loudon, England, a resort which, as all who have visited the metropolis know is visited daily bv an immense crowd of sightseers. The advertisement consists of moving pictuios showing British Columbia scenes ae well as many glimpses of our leading hulls-tries in o eration. Omit Tatlow, in a letter to the Premier of this province, written from England, states that the pictures are very good nnd meeting with immense success. It is generally considered both an effective and an up-to-date way of advertising the country, and gives tlie bomestaying Englishman a better idea of what British Columbia is really like than he could ever gain, except by coming out in person, which it is hoped that a great many of them will do. Altogether tbe experiment seems to be an unqualified success, and after the engagement at the Crystal Palace i« over the pictures will be exhibited at the chief London music halls.

Dear Sir: At the Birmington Croat Annual Chrysanthemum Show,opened here today, there is a huge British Columbia government apple exhibit of some hundreds of hox of tho luscious fruit from different parts of the prov Inoe, and I regret to say that not one single box bearB the name of a Revelatoke grower. From timo to time you have advocated in the columns of the MAIL- HERALD the. necessity and desirability of advertising the advantages of Revelstoko from an immigrant's point of of view; and as the majority of emi grants come from this country itseenit to me highly desirable that something from the town should be exhibited from time to time as occasion arises. As an old Revelstoke inhabitant 1 confess it hurt my prido to eee| such a thriving town unrepresented, and 1 am writing this solely to point out to the people of Revelstoke that to obtain tbeir share of the right kind of immigrant thev must make known their advantages on this side of the water. I might mention that Barrows, the leading provision merchants in Birmingham, have purchased every single British Columbia apple exhibited. Apologising for encroaching on your valuable space, I remain dear sirs, Your ooedieut servant, JOHN GILL COOKSEY. 10 Radnor Road, Hnndsworth, Birmingham, England. November 10th, 1908, A Slight Discrepancy Eilitur M.ui.-Hcuai.Ij: Dear Sir: Will yuu kindly note a slight discrepancy which appears in your issue ot the 21st inst., in your report of subjects discussed at the recent Trustees Convention. In your condensed reference to my remarks on the subject of " How the High School curriculum can he made more practical," you u ade it appear that 1 practically depreciated the entire results of all high schools other than those conducted iu large centres, whereas the trend of my statements was that the average high school curriculum, throughout the province was not commensurate, from a practical average occupation standpoint, with the coat in money, timo and energy incidental to it; and in this respect the larger cities bad an advantage over tbe smaller places, where high schools are conducted on the departmental curriculum only, in being able to introduce and maintain specialties such as book-keeping, typewriting, stenography, etc., pruticiency in which is in daily demand in a large percentage of the occupations in which our high school pupils will find themselves on leaving their studies to tako their place in the business world.
