The' hostess was assisted 'by Miss Melva Cartwright' who, had charge of the tea, while^Misses Jane Long aud Ruth Klingensmith were in charge of the refreshments- The guest has- been a very popular member of the Valiey,s social circle, and the best wishes of all are extended for future happiness. The United Farmers have already .decided to ask the goyermnent to hold an apple packing schoql at Erickson this season, and from present appearances there will also be pupils enough to have a pruning school as well. The most successful entertainment of the sort ever given In the Valley is the verdict of those who were present at the children's entertainment* at the schoolhouse on Wednesday night last "w*hie&*-WKS" given largely by theiptipilb and effort of those^connected with the Union Sunday school.

V /J Decision and Indecision By T. M. EDMONDSON. Decision and indecision; words very much alike, But they differ in their meaning as day differs from the night. Decision is an old word���������part of thr mighty plan, When as the scriptures sayeth, God said, '%f������t us make man." JJy His creative hand, and Mis decisive will, This part of God's creation He surely did fulfil, lie gave to man decision, as you wiii aii agree, When he was put on trial beside the apple tree. No court, no judge, no jury were at this famous trial, It was. a woman lawyer who thus caused Adam's fall. Shocked with this indecision, which made the heavens ring, Adam gained his first experience which made his conscience sting. And from that day to this late hour We reap seeds of indecision's power. And thus blind indecision���������blind to the cause of right��������� Crept painfully into this world, this land of pure delight. ��������� We leave this sacred story to study when you will ,��������� While we permeate the regions of science, art and skill, In the" splendid comparisons, the seven wonders of the work), We find decision pictured by the British flag unfurled, In the seven wonders of the world we eee science, art and .skill Surpassing all our thoughts; subduing all our will. The Pyramids of Egypt���������the place of many tombs��������� Intricate in construction as .the threads of weavers' looms, Stand forth as monuments of decision's mighty towers, The abode or resting place of kingly sepulchres. In geometrical dignity these wonders of the age Have never fully been depicted by poet, bard or sage. \ Imposing and impressive, the home of supposed souls, We leave them in their glory as eternal ages roll. The hanging gardens of Babylon, in grandeur so sublime, We see decision's character that no art can define. But.of the other wonders of the world't magnificence We have not space to tell as you see at a glance. The North Star in the:heavens is a decisive star, It guides the mariner at sea, and explorers from afar. In Africa's lonely'forest it stood forth as the sun; It guided Stanley's way, and also Livingstone. If decision is so important as epochs and eras roll Thehi surely, more important the decision of ther soul. The soul shall live forever though all other things have died 'Twill return to its Creator if redeemed by the crucified. We are entering on a new year, a most happy event, W hen every individual should make a covenant, . It would help to ease life's burdens; help to walk the narrow way; Will it be for decision or indecision, say? " ' Then oh New Year's Day, should troubled billows roll, Pray chase them all away; Jesus lover of my soul. FURNITURE! FIFTEEN DAYS ON LY will allow P er Cent.

In the way of -raising funds to meet all running expenses the ladies.gathered in $522 lust year which with a balance of $155 from last yeat gave them a revi-mie of $677. . Of this amount $342 came from the various public entertainments and the balance was mostly from the teas that feature the regular meeting, and the annual fees of a membership just under 100. A reyiew of the year's operations is briefly given in the report of Mrs. J. W. Hamilton, the retiring secretary-treasurer, which follows : The membership this year consists of 86 members and 11 associate, total 97, A yeai ago last April we started a lending library, free to members of the Institute, and last October the Institute handed over their library of a little over.SQp books to the Public Library Association. - The Institute has been instrumental in getting a public health nurse for this district,, and at the meeting in May decided to send out subscription forms for eyery member. This started the campaign which the health committee from the different organizations'in the district have continued since June, resulting in the arrival of Miss McLuhan last month. The Institute has been able to be tof assistance ir. some cases of need of help, the sum spent in relief work amounting to $66. Another good work has been the introduction of ' hot. lunches in the school, on which the institute has spent$53.20. Besides these amounts we have;-donated $15 to the fair in prizes, and $10 each to-the Navy League and the Federated Institutes. Papers have been read on. different subjects by the members, and Mr. Schofield of .St. John's Ambulance Society gave an address in_March. The juhior members gave a short program in April and served tea at the December meeting.. The big event of our year was the conference held on Aug. 31 and Sept, 1 and 2, and which went off without a hitch, and thougn it cost the Institute about $150 left us with a halanee on hand at the end of September of $53, A yi-siting committee has been established to visit the public and high school, and their recommendations brought before the notice of the trustees- We have $125 on hand at the end of the year to carry forward.

This week attention is directed to a subject which comes solely within the jurisdiction of the Dominion, namely, Banking, incorporation of Banks, currency, coinage and issue of paper money. The subject of Banking is very much in the public mind at the present time, as it always is in periods of "tight money" and when .an' economic necessity arises, not in the interest of the Banks alone, but in the interest of thc. whole country, to curtail credit and prepare for- financial storms. A Bank, or a country, that failed to so protect itself avould be: like the'captain of a sailing ship who refused to shorten his sail on a falling barometer. It would be to invite disaster. Yet, at the present time, there are loud outcries in certain quarters because the Banks are adopting a course which common prudence demands. Z.... v The necessity imposed upon the Banks of protecting the moneys entrusted to them by depositors and investors, Is seized upon by unthinking people, and those who feel they have a personal grievance because thcy cannot obtain all the credit they demand, to clamor for a change in the Banking systcm of Canada, and a periodical agitation is revived for the establishment of some system of Local or Provincial Banks. Those who voice such a demand shut their eyes to the fact that all.Banking history, especially in new countries, has served to demonstrate the weakness of local Banking in- gitutions and to prove the strength of a Federal system under which the money resources of one section of the country can, in periods of stress and emergency, bc made available tn less favored or more needy sections. This fact was finally recognized in the United States by the creation some six or seven years ago of the Federal Reserve Banks. The fact also must be recognized that, so far as Western Canada is concerned, it is still a borrowing country. Loans still far exceed deposits in amount. This is natural and inevitable tn a new country where the work of development is yet in its infancy. Inasmuch as the loaning power of a Bank is dependent upon the volume of its deposits, purely Local or Provincial Banks in the West would of necessity be weak and the,ir power to meet the credit demands of the people here limited. A Bank is after all but a trustee of the money of one group of people, the depositors, and the agency through which that money is loaned upon satisfactory security and at profitable rates of interest to another group, the borrowers. If. a Bank should consider borrowers only, it would be false to the .trust reposed m it by deposittors. It would soon have no depositors and hence nothing to loan. Again, those who advocate���������who even demand���������that Provincial Governments shall go into the Banking business, lose sight of the fact that the Fathers of Confederation in their wisdom, and with the experience of the ages to guide them, specifically provided in the Canadian constitution that the Federal Parliament, and it alone, should Have jurisdiction in the matter of Banking. Those who demand that Provincial Governments set up systems of Banking to suit the particular needs of their own people are asking for something Provincial Governments and Legislatures have no power to grant. Provincial Governments have power to create such institutions as Farm Loans Boards, and our Western Provinces have established such organizations, but everybody recognizes that thc ability of these Boards to make loans is strictly limited to thc amount of money Governments are able to borrow on the security of the whole Province, which money Is then turned ovcr to thc Boards to put out in loans. If the people who have money will not lend it to the Governments for this purpose, the Farm Loans Boards cannot make loans. And if because of local conditions the people have not the money to loan to the Governments, they in turn havc- nothing to loan-on farm mortgages. Therefore, even if the Provinces had power to incorporate, and create Banks, such Banks would be subject to local conditions and limitations very similar to those affecting the operations ..of Farm Loans Boards. A Federal Bank, on the other hand, is not subject to these restrictions but may employ is resource;^ derived from onc section of the country for credit purposes elsewhere. Diko'cr* recently tried the experiment of State iilc money was plentiful, labor at a and top-r.ou-U prices were being paid for farm and that a reaction has set in, these State Banks Banks in.

Ont, and at six years the eruption of the permanent teeth is just beginning. This period, from two until six is the time that 'the temporary teeth are in thcir prime. If the twenty little teeth are free from decay and the child is able to chew its food so that the proper nourishment will be extracted, the little body will haye. strength to resist or overcome nearly aii of the Infections that may come to childhood. The temporary teeth are of greater importance to the child than are the permanent teeth to the adult, because a child must not only be nourished to keep up thc ordinary life processes, but it must -have nourishment for rapid .growth as well. The temporary teeth decay much more rapidly than the permanent teeth because their structure is not* so dense and in addition the ' pulp is more quickly exposed because.*';..it is larger in proportion to the size or the tooth. . Nearly all dentists agree that the treatment of a temporary tooth with an exposed pulp is hopeless. The best that can be done is to give temporary relief. If ' the temporary teeth arc lost, thcy cannot be satisfactorily replaced. The permanent teeth lie in the baby jaw just beyond the roots of the temporary teeth and are only partially formed even at the time of their eruption. If thc baby teeth are allowed to abscess, the growing permanent teeth arc bathed in pus and will probably be seriously damaged or totally ruined. Children are highly sus- ccptablc to pus. Abscesses of temporary teeth produce ' general infections that result in lowered vitality, rheumatism, heart inflammations a%nd many other diseases - that arc very serious and sometimes fatal. Don't neglect your children's temporary teeth.. Both the present nnd future welfare of your child ch.*pend5 upon the health of the mouth. bruises, and the results of exposure.

T. A. Burrows, the head of a large Manitoba lumber concern, asserts that there is a good future for the pulp industry in Alberta. Along the Saskatchewan River, west of Edmonton alone, he say, "there' is plenty of pulp wood to warrant the building of a large mill, but it would be necessary to develop power on the river/' This can be done because in the higher reaches of the Saskatchewan there is sufficient potential power to operate several pulp mills if wanted.

By O-GE-MAS-ES (Little Clerk). Urges High Ideals Of medical Men (Copyngmeo) Living as we did for a number of years the only settler in the district, generally when travellers called- it meant staying all night, and often longer, and thus .friendships .were formed much more lasting than at the present time, , ���������������' One of our -closest and best beloved friends was William Ogilvie (afterwards;' Commissioner of -the Yukon), and he generally made it a point of staying some time with us ���������when in the West. On one of these occasions, in the fall of 1892 if my ���������membryiis correct, he drppped in.and received-his usual welcoine. He had been ''across' the mountains and down in California and Utah. These places at that time were being swept by a spiritualistic wave (something like the present time) and. table turning, consulting with mediums, etc., was all the rage. One night after the day's work was done and a few friends had come in (1892 saw the first settlers, who were campung close at hand) to meet and listen to Mr. Ogilvie who was a most accomplished raconteur; with a marvellous memory, he proposed that ���������we try and getin touch with the-other world by joining hands, round our large table. .We had been very much Interested in hearing details of what he had seen on his western trip in this line, so the reply was immediate, "let Us try." An e3c-nayalr officer was staying with me at the time'and-he laughed the whole thing to scorn, would have nothing to do with it, and talked 6i fakes, imposture and all the rest of it; ~o.28t appointed him chief critic. There were present a doctor's wife, a .young lady teacher, my ..own family and several others, some eight or ten in aU, or more, and Ogilvie placed us standing round the' table rather away from it and leaning forward resting the" tip(s 6f,-x>ur -fingers %������on i|.

The lumber had been pit-sawed by ourselves out.of the log and dressed down by hand. ' There were no .castors on" it; in ?fact you could riot shove iti very well and -t lad no be lifted when moved. Well, we circled the table, and Mr. Ogilvie arranged a formula, so many ���������-knocks-for-certain words and soon, and the...table 'when, inspired was to rear up and knock replies. We stood there probably threequarters of an 'hour and our navaVinan had the time ��������� *t ' :��������� L :., of his life in passing satirical and bit ter remarks which I could see .began to annoy Ogilvie. Finally the latter said tome: "Has anyone died since you settled her some nine or ten years ago?" "No white man," was my reply. "Have any Indians died?" "Yes, several years after . we came here a fine young Indian greatly beloved,by his tribe died arid is buried close to where we are." Poor Pa- pooh-is-kum, after the Indian Medi-. cine man had given him up we; did our best.to keep life in him and gave freely what little, luxuries w������ had at the time;" ������������������ . ��������� "Well," Ogilvie said in exasperation at our non-suecess, "try the spirits in Cree," which I, did, and the response was so immediate that the ladies present got nervous. That table, heavy and all as it was, fairly -waltzed round our living room, knocked replies to questions^with a bang, and, in fact, acted in a most amazing-manner, Ja- poon-is-kum was asked if he was happy. "'Yes/' was the reply. AVas, he pleased to hear his people were well. . "Yes," was the table's reply; Will Not Suspend Railway Rates in West Commission Refuses to Grant Application for Suspension of Rate Order.

The ground is taken that, notwithstanding the criticism to which the j board has been subjected, ifs findings cannot on the most searching analysis, he fairly characterized as other than just and reasonable. After dealing at some length with the general aspects of tlie case and commenting on . certain criticisms of the board, which have been made in respect to its action in increasing rates, the judgment deals exhaustively with the financial position of the Canadian Pacific Hallway at the present time. After presenting figures showing --st-diat the situation for the .company ..would.:; be with atid .without the rate increases, the board ^declares that these figures furnish becoming tired, we stopped. There was a distinct spooky effect, and X think we all realised that there wer-e unseen forces surrounding us of which we knew little or nothing. Even the naval critic was silenced, much to Ogilvie's delight. . Pa-poon-is-kum had an elder brother, a fine hunter named O-poo- hoo-sis (still living X am glad* to say at Ft. La Come) who called at my house some time after onr Seance, ���������and after some preliminary remarks I told him T bad been talldng with his dead brother. "Oh," was his reply, "I did not think the white man could do that, but I" often talk with him."

On a number of occasions ffS-^v- known Pagan Indians who constantly communicated with the spirits of ���������the departed (or thought* they did), and it was a very solemn and serious matter I can assure you, They are extremely reticent in matters of this nature and you have to know them very well indeed before they will reveal these inner feelings.

The judgment handed down was written by Commissioner Dr. J. G. Rutherford and concurred in by Hon. F. B. Carvell and Assistant Chief Commissioner Dr. S. J. McLean. The application which-ivas mado by Mr. H. J. Symington, for Manitoba, and D'Arcy Scott, for Saskatchewan, and representatives of other interests, was. based on a judgment of the. -Governorrin-Councilj; which referred'' the" order granting increased railway* rates back to the board for further consideration. Mr. Symington asked that if the rates were not suspended the increase in ������ates on lines west,of.,Fort William should be retdu'eed to IS .per cent. T? loratio have lost that fine sense.

The banks of North Dakota, many of which are small local banks, have been seriously affected by this "wheat strike." Owing'to'the* loc������ii nature of these institutions, a situation such as the existing one^ is sufficient to imperil their financial.existence. As a matter of fact fifteen of these-banks have closed their doors in as many days. It is stated that some of them, will re-open as soon as the present financial stringency ends. We have heard a great deal in this western country of the merits of the small local banks, so plentiful in the United States. We have heard much of the disadvantages of the Canadian banking system, much more than "can be substantiated. But we have not yet heard of'a fin-an-jfel stringency in any or all of the "Weston Provinces resulting th the" clo-aing down of fifteen Canadian branch banks. We are experiencing a. similar situation in the West to that which is causing trouble in North Dakota; some - of our farmers are holding-their wheat for higher prices and neglecting to pay thoir debts.

For ^Little Sympathy From Government, Ottawa.���������Candy manufacturers who object to having their products subject to luxury tax, the same as alcoholic beverages and toilet preparations, and automobile men who think they ..should have a rebate on cars they purchased under the tax, arc not likely to receive a great deal of helpful sympathy from the cabinet, judg- ���������i;irig by the remarks of cabinet ministers to the Canadian Press, In the case of candy, the Government, it is said, takes the stand that the cheaper grades, which are usually given to children, are free of tax in any case, so there Is no suggestion of depriving the kiddies of their candy, and thc more expensive grades of chocolates, etc., which arc really in the luxury class, are still taxed, and likely to remain so.
