Array 3 , i Enderby, B.C., January 11, 1917 AND WALKER'S WEEKLY Vol. 9; No. 46; Whole No. 466 Interesting Letters from Enderby Boys at the Front and in England In a recenllcttcr from Lieut. Glen of the Canadian Flying Corps, now in France, he says the weather there is simply' ap'palling���������������������������terrific gales, drenching rains and heavy snow storms. As a result, he says, things .have been pretty .dull���������������������������only onc big strafe and two or/three short pa- - trols every-other day. He Hew to Liixville recently in a snowsionn and brought back what he terms a ."new bus," the latest thing in a fighting Hying machine put out by the British: .They lire the greatest climbers known. This, Lieut. Glen " adds, is the 18th different type of machine lie has llown sinpe. he ��������������������������� started^flying at Toronto a year ago * last August. V J V/"Things arcipictty quiet along the front- now," he.says. "I suppose everyone is so occupied with their ,"own "misery they've no time to think : of sslugging,;thc other fellow . It .must be ,'awful,- such ���������������������������. continuous rains and wind and sribwr. Was iii Nancy the other day when the Huns put five lTrnch, shells into the-city, onc landjng.close enough to put the fear of the*Lord into me. "It's ah unforgivable" thing, I think, this shelling of an open town." Luckily no one was killed. -Their'lines at thc closest point are 18 miles from the city so you "can figure the gun to bc about 23 miles away. The shell stands as high as I do, almost, and, say; they go off with ii crash like nothing on earth. They just "naturally clean up all the windows for 300 yards around where they land"T and its rather a sensation to stand and hear them coming moaning through the air and not know just where they are going to plunge. They go th'rough about six stories The following letters ..were received thc past week,*, acknowledging receipt of thc Christmas Comforts sent by the Enderby Comfort Club: Lieut. W. Stanley. Wilkinson, of thc Ilyiiig corps, writes: "It was with great pleasure today that I received the box of delicious chocolates. Would you give my sincerest thanks to the Trench Comfort Club forme. Though.1 am not at present in thc Irenches, I spent last winter there and am now hoping to see them scon again from a-higher and dryer point of view. It was most kind of thc pecple of Enderby-to remember us,, and I nope some day I may have Ihc'pleasure'of thanking you all iii-'pcrsoii." '* '" '.-'.' " Pte. A. Bush writes: "I have jusl received the- parcel .'which "you so kindly "sent me, and wish-to thank you all who so kindly contributed to the many delicious and useful things.in1 my parcel, ancl those who wentyto the trouble of packing tfce articles"! It was certainly a pleasant surprise when-the parcel was brought to me, as I am in the hospilal with measles," but am-to get oiit on' lhe 20th.

Wc have been liicky. I can tell you, it's nol very pleasant being locked up in a hut for two weeks straight. I nearly went over wilh the last draft. My name was called, also several others from the band, 'but they cancelled it again and wouldn't take us. '"We are slill together, but wc never know what they intend doing with us. We might be called again any day, and again they.might keep us together. We cannot know anything about it until a few hours ahead.- "I had sixdays' fca/e s ncc we ar rived, and-I- went to'London, and certainly, had a.good time. It's a great place.- I saw bolh my sister and brother while* there. PaLwas oyer on eight days'^leave, and happened to strike, London while I-:was there.

I" don't, happen to be-one of them,so Svill have to stay here for the holidays." News Notes of Enderby and District Briefly Told for Busv Readers DEPARTMENT CANNOT HELP of a building, so there's not much use in dodging. It's rather a heartless thing lo say, but, honestly, I had to laugh to see those fear-stricken people run, every which way, with no idea themselves of where lhcy were going or what they were after- I'll swear f saw onc guy make fifteen circles around a statue in thc square I was standing in. - Five months ago I'd been scared stiff, but a dose of that sort of thing every day of your life, with machine-gun fire as an 'appclizcr, from jHun machines, either makes or breaks a person. Luckily I'm slill unbroken yd. I've often thought, though, if I come Ih rough ythe_.mr.nlhs to % be, if lhere will be anyone thing that will throw a scare into me. I can't see it that way now, but I may be mistaken." A letter from Sergt. K. Glen, who spent a" year in the trenches, and was twice buried by bombs demolishing the trench, the last time on the Somme, when he received a serious wound in. the leg and has since been confined to the hospital, states that he has sufficiently recovered to pass the strict medical examination for the flying corps. He states that he has appeared before the admiralty selection committee and has received his commission, and now only waits his discharge from the army to take up training in the flying school. "Had a letter from Charlie Murdoch," he concludes. "He is O.K. Also saw Will Russell lasl week." Capt. Godfrey Fowler says: "Will you please - thank the Enderby Trench Comfort Club very much for me for lhcir kindness in sending me the lovely box of chocolates. Il was really most awfully kind of you all, and I don't know how lo thank you enough. I am still in hospital, but am not getting on very quickly.

This seclion ol* ihe favored Okanagan 'is lhe natural" dairyman's lield. All kinds ol* feed I'or stock can be produced here without irrigation, lhe climalic conditions are favorable, there are creeks and streams innumerable, wilh natural pasturage abounding on all sides. II may be assorted wilh confidence lhal llie dairyman stands closer lo lhe consumer and gels a larger proportion of' lhe market price I'or his goods'lhan any olher class ol* agrieullurisi. TBcTruit growers, ihe produce man, the producer of wheal and olher cereals, all have to depend on lhe whims of the market and lhe middleman. All have lo give a grealer proportion of lhe market returns to lhe men who sland between lhe producer and lhe consumer. All have to depend upon market conditions and musl sland a grealer per cenlage ol' wasleage than falls lo the dairyman. We are speaknig especially of lhe dairyman who sells his cream on thc basis of buller fal, which, by-lhe-way, is the onlv plan on which a HALF-HOLIDAY VOTING TODAY The fact that Mayor Dill and lhc incoming aldermen were elected by acclamation on Monday will have a tendency to make lhe vole on the question ol' lhc weekly hall'-holiday small, and thc vote, which ever way it goes, will not bc an expression ol* the opinion ol' the entire electorate. Those elected aldermen were: Messrs. R. J. Coltart, J. F. Fravel, .1. B. Gaylord, James Nichol and ^ ' Poison. For school'Trustees: Messrs. Crane, Wilson an< Skaling. Thc hall'-holiday question is nol arousing the nleresl here lhal is being manifest at olher points in lhe Okanagan, the coast and interior. Al Vancouver lasl week a rousing meeting was held at which Saturday was unanimously favored. At Vernon lasl Wednesday evening a meeting of lhe merchanls and clerks was held and, after a prolonged discussion Saturday afternoon was favored by a vole of 18 lo if). Al Penticton the straw ballot laken by thc Herald resulted in 48 lo TVin favor of Thursday. Summerland is in favor of Saturday,while'iht; merchants of Armstrong arc urging their patrons to vole I'or Thursday, il would appear from this thai no concerted action can be taken, and it will be impossible to say howr the vole will go until the ballots arc counted. Tliis is unfortunate, for il is almost certain to;mean lhat onc town will.go for Thursday and anolher for Salurdav. Tlie Press has consistently favored Saturday as the only logical half-holiday. We hope thc citizens of Enderby will turn out and give an expression of their opinion at the poll to be taken today at the City Mall. Wc believe lhe law as framed by the legislature is weak and most unsatisfactory. We believe il should have either sel lhc day lo bc observed as a half-holiday by lhe Province or left Lhe whole question alone. To leave so important a thing open to the whims of every coin muni ly at once places it upon a commercial basis and lakes from il lhc real principle lhal backs a holiday and makes il worlh while. The. whole iaw seems to have been conceived purely tis a make-shift wilh the object of satisfying the commercial self-interest of'ihe store owners and store clerks, without going inlo lhe possibilities of making the half- holiday an inslilulion of real community value. However, such as il is wc must make lhe best of it until such'limc as the legislature gives us a real half-holiday law. Wc fail "to see how thc mid-week half-day ������������������IT can mean any more lo lhe community, iii lhc future lhan if has meant in tlie pasl. Wilh the schools open, and banks open, and. all.public business going on as usual, the closing of the few stores in any small commimily cannot make a hall'-holiday. To make il illegal* to sell goods on Thursday afternoon does not make a holiday out of il. A* holiday or a half-holiday on a day that cannol bc observed by nine-ten lbs of the community simply makes a farce of lhe law. and deprives lhe commimily of an institution lhal should be of real benefit.

For centuries the various nations ol" Europe have been endeavoring to organize in groups onc against the other, in an. effort lo restrain each other. They have called it lhc "balancing of power." Sully, lhc greal minister of France under Henry IV., was lhc first to propose such a combination. The same spirit underlay thc agreement of the Peace of Westphalia (1G48), closing lhc Thirty Year War. Again, in 1713 thc aggressions of Louis XIV. of France, received their final cheek under Ihd treaty of Utrecht. For lhc same reason Napoleon mcl with thc desperate opposition of thc other nations of Europe, and thc settlement affected by thc Congress of Vienna a hundred years ago was based on calculations of thc balance of power. To it also was due lhc coalition of Britain, France, Sardinia and Turkey against Russia, which rc- r suited in thc Crimean War (1854). The influence of the same principle was operative in thc Berlin Congress of 1878; and it may be traced in the recent international arrangements in which the Powers of thc Triple Alliance (Germany, Austria and Italy) had opposed to it the Entente Alliance (Britain, France and Russia). The great war in Europe today is like thc great wars which have preceded it covering thc same battlefields. Wc think today as those peoples of other times thought-in their day, lhat wc arc witnessing the final war that is to bring world peace. But wc deceive ourselves. What lhc world knows as the "balance of power"���������������������������thc organization of onc set of peoples in groups to opcriilc collectively against another organization of peoples in groups���������������������������the maintenance of thc "balance of power" by force must, in future as in the past, lead to, other wars of a similar nature. But in these wc arc not particularly interested. It is just as well, however, when discussing the outcome of the present conflict,' to remember history, and to remember, too, that any combination (community or international)-organized against another combination, is simply individuals" and nations pooling their weaknesses against other individuals and nations, and niust sooner or later lead to other wars. In short, so long as.wc give our minds over to the thought forces of destruction instead of to., constructive thought, wc shall have wars and a continuation of wars. .^ : London consumes 800,000,000 eggs,per annum ih times of peace. They amount to a weight of 55,300 tons, and thc proportion imported totals ' 500,000,000, or 34,600 tons. This leads thc London Daily Telegraph to urge the extension of thc egg and poultry industry at home, and it remarks that if three fowls per acre of cultivated land were maintained in East Anglia alone'thc increased value of thc eggs and poultry would bc over three million pounds sterling per annum. LET THE COURTS DECIDE Former Premier Bowser left for California the past week for a six-weeks' holiday. Before going from Victoria hc replied to a letter written him a couple of weeks ago by Hon. M. A. Macdonald in which thc new attorney-general had requested co-operation in securing thc consent of thc Imperial House of Commons to an Act validating all legislation passed, between March 14 and May 31 last. Mr. Bowser declines to have anything to do with any action which thc new Government may dccm_dcsirablc for the purpose of disposing of llie^lbubtcast upon tlTc^regislation-by^Hbn^Mrr Brewster and his colleagues. "I notice you refer to myself as leader of thc Opposition," writes Mr. Bowser. "I beg to state that no onc has yet been elected to that position, and therefore any action that I may take in connection,with your suggestion must bc understood as voicing only my own views, and not speaking for thc Conservative party. "As you know, when thc lion, lhc leader of lhc Opposition lasl session raised the question as lo thc legality of all legislation passed after March 14 I took thc position that our Legislature was constitutio'nally carrying on ils work, and as I have never had any doubt since lhat my then- expressed opinion was properly held, I can sec no reason now for taking an inconsistent position with reference to thai vie\y by assenting lo imperial legislation. If you liold a counter view it would seem to mc a proper course for you to pursue would be for the Hon. the Premier to proceed with the action against myself in which hc issued a writ in thc Supreme Court of B. C. on June 1 last; and allow the courts, thc proper.tribunal, to settle these disputed questions." The Bodies had better look out and prepare to run, for when the Tommyesses of England get into the trenches there's going to be something doing. "Our authorities," writes a woman to thc Whiston Tribunal, "tell us that thc army needs strong reinforcements, and ,if the men haven't the pluck, we women must go. Therefore it is that I ask you to send me to the front. I should make a first-rate Tommycss. I love fighting, as my intimate friends can testify. I am never happier than when in a scrap. I am not of the fair, lat and forty order. I can use my fists as well as a girl of 20 can do, and if I am given a rifle and bayonet I would shoot the Huns as I now shoot the rats which infest my pigsties, and with more pleasure, too, for while I pity the rats, I should have no pity on thc Bodies. I am as strong and as stubborn as a mule." CO-OPERATION IN SCHOOL SUPPLIES The direct school lax is only a fraction of the cost of giving a child an education.' The text books furnished by thc government free lo thc child docs not materially reduce thc cost of an education���������������������������provided a parent has a number of children attending school. There arc the various and sundry exercise books, scribblers, etc., which lhc child must have. They cost only 5c or 10c each, perhaps, but thc frequency wilh which lhcy are required, means a considerable cosl laken for the entire term. Today, with the cost of paper going up, this means more scribblers of fewer pages, and a greater aggregate cost. A few years ago, under thc principalship of Mr. Calder, the Enderby school inaugurated thc Fortune School drawing pad, which.were furnished by-Thc Press at 2 pads for 25c. These pads contained several pages more than the custom-made drawing pads, and the paper was of a much better quality. By thus co-operating wilh thc children ancl thc local printer, thc school board was enabled to affect a considerable saving for the school children, in drawing pads alone. Today, even more can be gained by this co-operation. Owing to thc cost'of drawing paper advancing, thc ordinary 10c drawing pad contains only 8 or 10 sheets, and the paper is of second quality. The Press has printed a few hundred copies of lhc 1917 Fortune school (iruwing pads, which can bc sold at 10c a pad of 16 sheets. The paper is of first.quality and thc pads contain just twice thc number of sheets as arc in the ordinary custom- made drawing pads. Thus thc school children arc enabled to make a saving of one-half their drawing-pad cost. And thc pads printed,by The Press give prestige to the school adopting them, for the name of the school is printed on each sheet together with the space for pupil's name, date, etc. Thc United States has paid Denmark $25,000,- 000 for three small West Indian Islands, with an area of only 138 square miles and a.population of less than 300,000. But the islands arc for a naval base protecting thc Panama canal. If the islands were over in Europe and-were required for military purposes, some. excuse would have been found by thc nation requiring them to occupy and take .them without price, and to protect them against some possible future enemy. It's marvelous how thoughlM lho-������������������; big feliov.s overy. in Europe arc of the w<'.ICan: of the lillle fellows. GUESS WHO SAID THIS There is over in thc States a preacher who is said to be a marvel in leading the spiritually sick to Jesus.' He has a way of'doing it that is not orthodox, hence the church cries anathema at. the man who infuses a little of his own God-given individuality into his business. Here are some choice sayings of his marvelous man of God: "If the highbrows don't want to come around here they can go to thc devil." "I am your spirtual physician." "Your sole thought should bc thc leading of men to heaven, not preventing them from pulling you down to hell. I'd like to put my fist in your face and tell you so." . "Don't blame God when you wake up in hell. Consider the many means of escape He-gives you." "Whoever preaches future probation lies. "God didn't stop to think whether you would like hell or not when hc made it." Now that the answer to tbe German peace proposals has been made, to bc followed in a lew days by an answer to President Wilson and the other neutrals, wc mav look for all talk of peace to subside at least until, the Allied armies have made another great cflort to break thc enemy lines, cither on thc West front or on thc East. This will probably carry thc struggle on until the fall of the present year. MR.
