This was entirely due the fact that the  men's and ladies' Liberal associations in  Nelson  had failed to  agree upon   the  number of delegates each should' send to  the meeting, and in an effort to settle  this matter some very lively scenes were  pt������B*-*edr which we*������ only brought to a  com^^ion*by ihe delegates from Cretsbn?  ^riding points serving notice on tne Nelson friends tbai-Sf. they failed ic asr^s  within ten minutes the visiting Liberals  would quit the gathering.

Two Nelson men, Marcus  Martin and John St.Denis sponsored  Mr. McLean in equally complimentary  terms.  When the result of the voting was  announced Mr. McLean immediately  moved tint the choice of the convention  be made unanimous, pledged his support  in no uncertain terms* and asked all  present to get behind Putnam and'make  his election a certainty, and this sentiment was echoed by other speakers who  urged that past differences be submerged  and a united effort made to secure  victory.

Saskatchewan Taking Steps To Deal  With Drought Conditions  Hon. J. F. Bryant, K.C., Chairman  of-the'Saskatchewan Commission on  Conservation and ^Afforestation, addressed the Canadian Club in Regina  recently, when he made many interesting observations regarding the  work of the Commission and the'development of forestry work by the  Department off Natural resources.  A portion of Mr. Bryant's speech  is reproduced as follows:  In the year 1868, the late Archbishop Tache who was thoroughly  familiar  with  this  Western  country  aaiu vx   uiai ssectiLns ui   .3<vS*v3.i-CjL������ti������i.������.iA,  south of a line drawn between the intersection of the Manitoba boundary  with the International boundary and  Kerrobert, in. a~descrit>tive work~of  Western Canada, "Here Is a desert."  In 1868, Major Emory of the United  States Frontier Commission, stated in  a report to the United States Government, "The plains of America west  of  the  One-hundredth  Meridian  are  not catsable -of suntJortins-1 sn agricultural   population   unless  you   go  far  enough   south  to  meet  the  tropical  rains." The One-hundredth Meridian  [passes roughly through Brandon and  ! a little to the east of Dauphin. When  S Manitoba was established, the west-  ! era. boundary of Manitoba was placed  where it is    because    It    was    then  thought that the lands to the west  were not fit for agriculture.  Experience during the past twenty-  five years iB.uies.tes that tiicsc stats*  ments are not correct and that southern Saskatchewan, if properly farmed, is on������ off the finest agricultural  areas in the whole world.

The frequency of drought  conditions in semi-arid regions result  in accumulated drought by the drying  out of the sub-soil. Isx such regions  available records show that rainfall  \'aries; in. more than, one-half of the  years there is less than the normal  amount of rainfall. Several years of  comparative heavy rainfall are followed by successive years of light  rainfall. In the moist years there are  abundant crops and settlement- pushes into normally by regions. Then fellows years of drought, crop failure,  hardship and abandoned lands in the  dry areas. This has been the history  of many districts in the western  United States.  In order to take stock and to make  asi inventory of the exact state of affairs in such a way as to afford a  basis for intelligently guaging the  agricultural possibilities of the prcv-  i iiice in the future and to study the  a season of great privation for the  Indians and coincided with the last  great out-break off small-pox among  the natives.  From every indication we are now  entering; upon a new Brueckner cy-  number .off years- It is imperative that  we do not forget the lessons of the  drought years through Which we have  just passed. We should now lay plans  to meet the drought conditions which  are bound to recur in the future.

The duties of the commission are to  inquire into climatic conditions as effected by the conservation of water,  and the absence of presence of, trees;  to collect all available data and study  the question in the light ofv experience and remedies taken under similar conditions elsewhere; making,  recommendations as to possible dam-  sites for the conservation of water;  to make such proposals as to afforestation and any other matters as will  assist in permanently removing the  causes of drought conditions as they  now exist in parts of Saskatchewan.  Southwestern Saskatchewan suffered a severe drought in 1917-18-19. A  Better Farming Commission was ap-  pointed by the'Government to study  the situation. The Commission reported that after studying fifty years of  weather and agricultural records, the  most encouraging fact was that never  before had there been thrcg dry yeais  in succession. Within ten years there  have been three dry years in succession, more disastrous than "any recorded in the records.  While the drought through which  we have just passed was one of great!  severity, it is not the worst that has  happened on these western prairies.  The lake levels were lower than anyone remembered since 1900, but the  settlement was thin prior to 1000, and  as a result there Is a general belief  that drying is due to extensive cultivation and is an- unprecedented condition. Desiccation, or drying out, has  boon going on in southern Saskatchewan in a progressive way since 1900  with a fow let-ups such as tho last  ffivom 1924 to 1027 when a slight raise  in tho Uiv*ils of the lakes took place.  Before 1898, the majority of the lakes  in sou thorn -Alberta and Saskatchewan woro lower than thoy wore during the recent draught!

If droughts  can accurately be predicted, and we  believe this csjr* bo ; dente, .millions  of dollars can be saved in not planting crops in areas where there is no  hope of success in given years.  In. the matter off afforestation, the  Drought Commission is studying the  programmes of Great Britain, Germany, Sweden, Prance, Australia,  Tasmania, United States, and several  states of the American Union, and  of the Province off Ontario.  A great deal of work can be furnished tho unemployed in getting out  fuel wood. In the United States a  campaign has recently been carried  on to use wood for fuel purposes and  thus supply work for the unemployed, and in many localities, local unemployment was solved by cutting wood  and setting about to establish community forests. Canada imported sixteen million tons of coal last year at  the cost of $150,000,000. Much of this  fuel could be supplied at home if our  natural resources were utilized,  During the past two years there  has been an unprecedented cutting of  trees for firewood in Manitoba and  Saskatchewan. This has grown to  such an extent that tho coal dealers  alarmed at the falling off of their  business have caused a survey of tho  situation to be made. In all the large  Western centres there has been a  falling off in the coal used this year,  owing co the quantities of cordwood  used.  The sale of cordwood has increased  rapidly during difficult financial years.  This policy, If continued, without replacement of the timber cut over, will  be disastrous. If, however, provision  is made to replace these trees and to.  keep replanting and growing trees;  tho wood will afford an Important  source of fuel and tho community forests will give a good deal of employment. ,  Municipalities hi Sweden- and In  some othor European countries aro  tax. free because tho oxpohsos of administration aro paid from the pro-  cacda of municipal forofltFt.

The questioner,  as he appears in Mark, leaned to this  side."'.; "    .'77,-''./���������'7: .  Jesus began His answer with a preface to the Great Commandment that  is lacking in Matthew's account, from  Deuteronomy 6:4, which is probably  quoted.'.-"to suggest that duty, like  God, was one, in opposition to the prevailing habit of viewing duty as consisting in isolated precepts." Thou  shalt love the Lord thy God with all  thy heart, and with all thy soul, and  with all thy mind, and with aU thy  strength���������that is, to the utmost. This  commandment was repeated by the  Jews In their morning and evening  prayers, was inscribed in the phylacteries which the Pharisees wore on  their foreheads, and was enclosed hi  the Messzuzah, which was nailed to  the doorposts.  "It Is astonishing to what warmth  and intensity off feeling towards tho  Divine Being some of the spirits off  the Old Testament wore able to rise,"  comments  Dr.   Stalker. '."More  than  one of the Psalmists say In so many  words, 'I love the Lord';  and thero  is no reason to doubt that in the centuries of Hebrew history there wer������  many hearts able to adopt as their  own such passionate appeals to  tho  Deity as, 'Whoni have I in heaven but  Thee?   and   there  Is  none  on   earth  whom I desire bosldes Thee.' Still, tho  average sentiment of the pious Israelite toward the Divinity was fear; and  from  tho  Wisdom  Literature  thoro  may" bo gathered that for centuries  tho commonest name for religion wan  'tho fear ot tho Lord.' But now all  othor sentiments wero    to    bo    subordinate,  and  Iovg was  to  take  Its  place both as the force to drive and  the wisdom to guide along the pathway of progress and, perfection."

Eighteen months ago, ph a whaler  in Beaufort sea, the five whites, excluding the half-breed Andre whom  they picked up later, had\ "run a  buck" under Jensen's instigation, but  were overpowered by the captain and  jrastvOf the crew. Flung ashore with  the skipper's sulphrous good wishes  at bleak Demarcaton Point on the  Arctic coast, they made their way  across the Romanzoff's to the new  placer fields in the Kayukuk headwaters. They come too late to get  worUiWhllo claims; and they discovered, too, tljiat "hawking" In tho perpetually-frozen subsoil was oven  harder work than whaling.  It was Jensen, brooding over thoir  predicamont, who conceived the idea  that it was easier to find gold which  already had been found than to thaw  a hole thirty feet down to black sand  and bedrock and then maybe get  nothing. It was .Tonson who allayed  their fears and dangled tho golden  END PAIN���������Soothe  SOKE HANDS  by Rubbing in     m  W.    N,    II.    llHMt  "Jensen put it dere."  -. '*why?"7 .��������� ������������������ 7- ���������������������������:;��������� :  .-'���������  Woolley did not know all the details, but from hints Jensen had dropped he was able to piece the story together pretty well.  Several years ago. at Hershell Island^ that, gathering place for whalers, Tndians,: traders, Eskimos and  Arctic explorers, Jensen had run aroui.  ���������fvf   l~������Q.r/>   TVTs.r.'WjllQ-n -      TTa      Inorl       r*r\rY\A  ashore from a whaler, hungry for  drink and hungry for woman's company after eight inohths of following  the herds. He had. found the drink,  and in a whisky haze had started to  make rough love to fifteen-year-old  Joyce MacMillan.  Dave MacMillan fell upon him. For  years how Jensen had been nursing  his hairy chin reminiscently where  MacMiUan's hard fist had caught him;  and his ears still rang withTthe derisive jeers of~ those who saw 'him dog-  whipped down aTci^s the swells and  over the shingle to the'whaler.  Ke;h^ never forgotten the MacMillan girl nor theincident off that  snowy October day. The incident had  smoldered in his vengeful soul; and  when his party passed the trading-  post, it had nared out. It was s. neat  stroke, putting that comparatively  worthless bale of furs in the shed off  the man who had dog-whipped him.  He had counted on the trader discovering them, .wondering about them,  innocently calling the attention off the  police to them, and getting into hot  water when he failed to explain how  they got there. .  . . , .-  The revelation of Dave MacMillan's  complete innocence was no surprise  to Alan but merely a proof that his  and Joyce's instinctive belief had been  correct. Now he could know that in  buying out of service he had saved  the reputation and possibly the very  life of Joyce's father. Under Haskell's  tyranny he "could never have vindicated Dave. In his own. way he had  planned, and had fought through to  this partial triumph.  Writing down the essential points  of this confession,, he forced Woolley  to make his mark on the paper, with  himself and Bill as witnesses. Ho  made a second copy for Bill, iM oa.se  something happened to Bill or him.  Then he demanded of Woolley:  "You say those ot the r men went  hunting. Whon are you expecting  thorn back?" -./  Woolley did not know. Ho seemed  strangely hesitant. Fidgeting uneasily'  ho would glance up at Alan and then  away, as though ho had something to  tell but was afraid to toll It.  Alan saw his agitation. He demanded: "What'ro you stumbling over?

Optimism prevailed that a compromise would ho found whereby tho  German rclchwchr, a loug-torm voluntary ccrvlco army, would ho gradually dlsbandod and all off continental  Europe would return to tho conscript  system.

Information reaching the board  indicated that at the annual  meeting of Creston Co-Operative  Fruit Exchange at the end of  April vigorous protest was made  of restoring the old order .of  things, and in order to make the  board's position clear, the following letter has just been forwarded  Manager Cooper of the Exchange.  It reads.  "Apparently there has been  some misleading information  given out to the members of your  Exchange, presumably at your  annual meeting, as to the intention of this Board in endeavoring to have a fruit inspector  appointed at the port of Rykerts.  "The motto of the* Creston  Board of Trade has always been  "If.it will help the Valley the  Board is for it." Consequently it  be utter folly for this Board to  have in mind the flooding of the  Valley with fruits from the other  side of the line. This Board  functions not only for the benefit  of Creston, as you can see from  our motto, but for the Vaiiey as a  whole.  "In its endeavor to have this  appointment made at Rykerts  the whole idea was to make it  possible for the local merchants  to purchase citrus fruits and import them directly from Spokane  and thus make it possible for  them to avoid the extra expense  involved in having the fruit  shipped back over this route from  Nelson������ Thin would mean quite  a saving to   the   merchant who  FOR SALS���������3 hurrier oil 'stove with  oven.

Consider the Canadian position as an example, and tha situation In th's  country is in most respects similar to that existing in other countries  throughout the world.  This Dominon is a land of .great natural wealth; its people are Intelligent, progressive, and anxious and willing to work. They have enjoyed a high  standard of living In the past, and desire it to continue. They possess political and religious freedom, and have inaugurated and maintained  social services? for the benefit, not only of individuals tut for whole communities and the nation.  Nevertheless, at the moment, the development of natural resources of  Canada, our great reservoirs of potential wealth, is at a standstill, while hundreds of thousands of men and women remain unemployed and approximately one and. a half million of the population are subsisting- on relief provided  by the State. The standard of living Is falling, not rising; social services are  being- abolished or curtailed; the burden of public debt is growing every day,  and heavier and ever heavier taxes are being imposed.

Query: where do the billions  of discarded needles go? The disposal  of safety razor blades is an awkward  problem. What about needles and  pins ? They must be put somewhere,  else there would be no demand for  hundreds of millions of new ones each  year. In fifty years Redditch must  produce enough needles and pins to  carpet the earth and seven seas. Yet  one scarcely ever sees a needle or a  pin lying around. In fact a pin seems  about the scarcest thing imaginable  sometimes when it is badly wanted.  Needies, pins and fish hooks are  just one branch of manufacture that  Great Britain stands supreme in.

Is it the system in vogue in Canada under which all our life  activities and institutions have been operated and governed in the past, and  under which great progress was made, responsible for the present breakdown? *  Some short-sighted people will thoughtlessly say "Yes," and will try to  convince others that the whole trouble lies in the system and that Canadians,  if they will, can solve their own problems by their own action; that all they  have to do is to change the present system, and create a new one based on an  entirely different set of principles. And the same thing is being said in other  countries.  This, however, is a superficial view. Suppose Canada could tomorrow  create within its own borders an absolutely ideal 100% perfect monetary,  banking and credit system while other nations adhered to their present systems and methods, would that solve Canada's problems? Intelligent men and  women realize it would not.  Suppose Canada tomorrow adopted absolute free trade with the world  in an endeavor to again revive the exchange of commodities and once again  set in motion all the great activities bound up in trade and commerce,  while other nations adhered to their present policies, would that put Canada's  unemployed to work and revive Canada's Agriculture? Again, th������ answer  is most decidedly "No."  The solution for our present economic problems is not to he found in a  complete change In the system now prevailing in Canada,���������that would  merely result in still greater unsettlement, in confusion ending in chaos, and  more widespread loss and suffering,���������but it is to be found in international  action.   It is only so it can he found.  But what Canada and the Canadian people can do, and ought to do,  and, we believe, are striving to do, is to encourage such international  action, and to create those conditions and ideas in the minds of the people  of other nations that will make such international co-operation and action  possible. This Dominion can show to the whole world" that it is ready and  eager to join hands with any other nation, or any group of nations, in the  task of breaking down narrow nationalistic ideas, suspicions and fears.  Every opportunity that presents itself,���������and where they do not present themselves Canada should make them,���������no matter how small it may be, should be  quickly grasped, and Canada should indicate, without reserve, that it is prepared to go a long way in tho direction of meeting other nations and peoples  in providing needed solutions to existing problems.  Organized labor had the germ of the right idea in its international labor  brotherhoods organized for mutual protection, but, unfortunately, even within those brotherhoods a selfish nationalism existed, with the result that  organized labor in one country proceeded to support selfish trade policies  designed to protect themselves but to do injury to their fellow workers In  another country. The folly of this has been brought home to them in these  years of depression, just as it haa been brought home to the hankers and  great world traders in all countries. Narrow nationalism simply won't, work.  That is what is fundamentally wrong with the prevailing system,���������tho attempt of each nation to shut itself up in a watertight compartment away  from all other nations, and in so doing is slowly taut surely starving itself to  death.  The tearing down that Is necessary. Is tho tearing clown of the wholo not-  work of wire entanglements and barriers of one kind and anothor that the  nutiouH buvu erected against each other; the destruction that Is called for is  tho destruction of the narrow nationalistic ideas and fears of people Lot tho  nations get off tlio by-paths of narrow nationalism and on to the broad  international highway*- of the world, and the depression will paaa like a mist  before the rising sun; unemployment will give place to industrial and business activity everywhere with the workers of one nation not begrudging  work to other nations provided thoy arc busily at work themselves, as thoy  would be; and the primary producers on farmn, In forests, fisheries and minca  will again enjoy adequate markets and remunerative prlcbs for tho things  thoy produce.  The international way hi tho world':) highway; the international method  is tho Twentieth Century Method.  New Fire Fighting Inventions  One Uses Only Water To Put Out Oil  Fires  Some  new fire-fighting inventions  were described by Commonder A. N.  P. Firebrace, Divisional Officer of the  London Fire Brigade, in a lecture before the Royal Society of Arts. One  was a method of putting out oil fires  with water only. Another was was a  Hungarian   appliance   which   extinguishes small fires by pumping on to  them bicarbonate of soda and carbon  dioxide gas���������the gas obtained by purifying and treating the exhaust gases  of   the   internal   combustion   engine  which propels ihe  appliance.    ** The  system by which oil fires are put out  with water . alone has  been evolved  during the last year. It has received  the approval of the Board of Trade  for  ship installations  and has  been  fitted in some instances on shore; but  so far it has only had a chance to  prove its worth under test conditions.  Water sprayers are    so   fitted    that  every space, concealed or otherwise,  can he bombarded with spray under  pressure.  The  bombardment  of  the  surface of the oil breaks it up into  a  multitude  of Jtiny   globules,   each  surrounded by a" thin film of water.  This emulsion, as it is. called by chemists, will not burn,  since  the flame  only reaches the wat*er film surrounding the oil globules. The surface..of  the liquid being thus non-inflammable, the fire at once goes out.  1  TWO EXTRA CORD  PJLIES UNDER THE  TREAD���������make   the   tire  safe at any speed;  GUM-BlFPED    CORDS  with 58% longer flexing  life;  NON-SKID  TREAD���������  wider, deeper tread to give  25% more non-skid wear.
