JCELOWNA BRITISH COLUMBIA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1916.-6 PAGES 1 f i tl JO Per Annum Regular Meeting of the City Council Council Consider Resolution From Penticton-Court of Revision to be Held Mpnday At the meeting of the city coun cil held last Friday morning, con-j sideration was given to a communication from the Penticton Board ol Trade dealing with the proposed Transprovincial Highway," the completion of which would lurniah communication for automobile tourists with the prairie provinces and also-open up road communication rorh the interior to the coaat. Only two short stretches of the road remained to be constructed and the Vancouver. Board of Trade had lately been stirring up. an agitation.' to' have the government finish these. "Within the- past few weeks," stated the letter from Penticton addressed to the council, "you have doubtless received, a resolution from the Vancouver Board of Trade with regard to the 'early completion of the Hope-Princeton Road. ''With this resolution we have no quarrel. It is a necessary road. But it may be that "you are not aware that the Transprovincial Road crosses the Okanagan Valley at a point close to the International Boundary line where there is comparatively no development. Unless touring motorists were to make a wide detour to the north they would not see the developed section of the Okanagan Valley at all. "In this connection this Board haa a counter proposal to make to this effect: That between Kere- meos and Rock Creek the route of ths road should be changed. Instead of running through Richter'a Lqwer Pass, through Osoyoos 'and then up that notorious steep aand hill, climbing Anarchist mountain, that froth Keremeos th' the rpad should run via Marron Lake-'eleven hundred feet lower than the road running via Clarke's^ and completed all but a few milea ���to Penticton, and then up to Carmi on a good hard road and a lower summit than at Osoyoos, and .from Carmi down the Kettle River to Rock Creek on a water grad On the other road there is a very ateep high hill on each side of Rock Creek���the creek, not the town. A goodly portion of the road from Penticton to Carmi is already finished. "The advantage of the change is obvious. At Penticton the touring motorist could be easily induced to take a run up the Okanagan Valley and the other towns might be expected to reap some advantage. Crossing at Osoyoos, where there is no hotel or garage, touring parties would have to go to Oro- ville for accommodation, and if they .wanted to take a aide trip into the fruit distiicts, would he as likely to run one hundred ind fifty miles to the south into the American Okanagan, as to run one hundred and fifty miles north into lhe Canadian Okanagan. "A special committee is drafting a resolution which ia being carefully prepared. You may expect to receive a copy shortly. In the meantime we would suggest that you take no action, unless you are prepared to qualify your endorsa- of the Vancouver resolution by endorsing our position with regard to a change of route. "We believe that our move is of sufficient importance and interest to your district and the whole Okanagan to warrant this request for your assistance. We should be glad to hear from you, "Penticton Board of Trade." THe council expressed their approval of thepropoaed change, but desired to have more complete information regarding the location of the road. The clerk was therefore instructed to write for this nnd also to suggest that the information be sent to the two -members for the district and also to the Minister of Public Works.

One queation which came up for consideration was that of lady representatives upon the School Board. There was no adverse criticism of the present Board or its administration, bul the discussion showed a unanimity of opinion as to the desirability of co- representation of those most deeply interested in the education and general welfare of the young. A resolution war passed endorsing the principle and a committee appointed to secure a candidate for a place on the School Board at the next election. o " A social hour followed the conclusion of the business, during which the following programme was rendered: Pianoforte duets by Mrs. Leslie Dilworth and Miss Jones, and Mrs. L.

It would thus be seen that this road is a necessity for local purposes, aside from forming a link in the proposed diverted route ofthe trans-provincial highway. "And whereas we believe that the cost of completing the highway on the proposed route would be less tnan making �� good road on the old route; "And whereas we believe that an impartial consideration of the two routes would show there is a distinct advantage in favor of the Penticton-Carmi route; "Be it therefore resolved that we petition the provincial government to have the route changed forthwith, and that the links uncompleted be finished as soon as possible; ,and that copies of the resolution he forwarded to the members oi tl.e government and., to the various boards of trade and other organizations in the province ' for endorsatlon." MAGIC ��ap7��j ^um POWDERi The Free Trade Lea.rue ol Canada, which wis organiz*.. in Winnipeg last spring, is preparing for an active campaign at once. A series* of public meetings has been arranged to b�� held during the fall and winter throughout the west. Tho following platform of immediate demands has been a- dopted:��� (I) Free trade with" Great Britain by annual reductions of at least 20 per cent, of existing customs tariff so at to ensure complete free trade with the Mother Country within five years. (a) Immediate legislation making effective the reciprocity agreement of 1411 with the United States. (..) Abolition oi customs duties on agricultural implements, farm machinery and ve ��� hides, coal, lumber, and cement and ��11 articles used in primary production,! and all natural products. (4) A general lowering of the customs tariff on the necessaries of life so as to'securc a measure of relief from the present high cost of living. Those in sympathy with the movement are invited to send in their membership or to write for literature and information to the headquarters of the League at Winnipeg. Census of Germany Taken The cenaua of the population was taken this week throughout the Cerrnan Empire. Formerly army officials were employed to do this work, which is repeated at regular intervals of five years, but thia time landlords were required to send in the names ol all persons who slept in their houses on the night of November'30th. Blanks were provided for the purpose. The emeus will be used in the enforcement of the new civil service law. A census of cattle and certain other domestic animals took place at the aame time. There waa a revolt io Antwerp on November 30. in which between two and three hundred inhabitants and' many German soldiers are said to have been killed. The reported revolt was due to a call upon the inhabitants for work in Germany. I VOU will enjoy looking over our stock of book* for lhe Kiddies " and older children.

Tha tact ia also emphasized that all butter in such packagea must be ofthe full net weight of sixteen ounces, and in default of same a fine of from $10 to $30 for each offence is imposed. Whey butter must be so labelled even when mixed with dairy butter, and dairy < butter retains it*, label though it be mixed with the creamery product.

DUTIES: -- Orderly Patrol for week, Kangaroos', next for dutv, Wood Pigeons. PARADES:-The Otters, Eagles, Wood Pigeons and Beavers will parade at the Club-room on Tuesday, December 12th, at 7.15 p.m. The Wolves, Curlews and Kangaroos will parade at the same time and place on Wednesday, December 13th. The combined troop will parade at the same place on Saturday, December 16th, at 2.30 p.m. The Wolf Cubs will parade at the old school house on Friday, December 15th, at 7 p.m. Weather permitting, we hope to be able to arrange for another hockey match with the Bankers' Team on Saturday of this -week. We ask every Scout in the troop to bring to his parents' attention the fact that the Annual Meeting of the Local Association will be held on Monday evening next, the I Ith inst., at 8 p.m. in lhe Club Room. We shall have our Annual Bun Feed on Wednesday, the 28th of this month. On Friday, the 24th ultimo, Recruits C. McKenzie and 1. Thomas passed their Tenderfoot tests successfully and Scout J. Parkinson, of the Wolves, also re-passed the same. On Wednesday, 29th ult., P. L. G. Groves, Second B Davis and Scout T. Taylor also re-passed their Tenderfoot feats. There is very little time left before the end of the year and we certainly will not be able to spend the last few days of the year in taking Tenderfoot Tests entirely. Also, if a Scout does not try until the last few davs and then fails, he will probably not have a chance of trying again. There will be no exceptions to the new rules. We re-print the following from the November Headquarters Gazette, commonly known as "The Green "un." He being dead yet apeaketh. Before going out to the front, here, we regret to say, he was killed in action last month, Captain H. Martin, Scoutmaster Lingfield and Dormanaland Troop, and District Scoutmaster, Surrey, wrote s letter to be read to his boys, hould he fail to come back. We are verv glad.Jo have obtained permission to publish the follow ing extracts from this letter: ' I am writing this on the eve of my de- patture. God only knows whether 1 am to return or not, but should it be His will that I am not to, I write these few lines to help you boys as far as within me lies the power. . . . Remember boys that each one of you brings an influence on your fellows either for good or bad. You will have many trials, many temptations, but if, when they come, you think to yourselves how can I help other people best, or what is the right thing to do, there is little doubt but that you will do right. In all that you do don't trouble about what people think, just do what vou believe to be right yourselves. D>>n't be goody-goody and just do what vou think looks good, because y iu want people to think you are t! rod, but be just simple, straightforward, honest, kind-hearted, pure-minded boys, and you will turn out to be men wall worthy of glorious England boys, and all er noble traditions." -o In 1914: How many mile* will it go an hour ) In 1916: How many miles will ii go on a gallon of gasoline ? Report of Provincial Botanist In a pleasingly illustrated book let, which is much more readable than government blue books usual ly are, Mr. John Davidson pre. ���ents his third annual report aa provincial botanist for British Columbia. The range of the work covered is indicated by the chapter headings, which include item* on the herbarium, botanical gardens, lecture* on botany, experimental work, garden competition* and reports of the several botanical explorations of out of the way corners of the province. The botanical office keeps in touch, by means of local correspondents, with as many district* as possible at all times, in addition to sending out these survey*. Over ninety such correspondent* are now on the list. They send in specimens of any new specie* discovered, and report on local conditions generally. Most of them are school teachers, who supply specimen* and data for information for their classes. The office also supplied data for and assisted in the judging of the home garden competition last summer, in which only children were allowed to compete. Mr. Davidson also helped judge the amateur gardeners' enmpetition for- the Mayor's Cup. The woik ot the office also extended to an examination of weed* in- connection wi[h the reported poisoning of some cattle last summer. Farmers requiring information to help them find oi exterminate noxious weeds need only write to the office.

Expenditure on capital account was $69,517,000 against $65,345,- 000 for the corresponding period last year.

For the eight, month* there haa been a general betterment of forty million dollar* aa compared with the aame period last year.

P.O. box 374 IMPORTANT CONVENTION OF FARMERS' INSTITUTES (Continued Irom I'orro 1.) of the school garden movement. The idea was to put something more tangible before the boys and girls which would seize their interest and be of more use to them than a smatter of the classics. Men in all walk* of life would be better for a knowledge of agriculture. Bankers, commercial and professional men would do their work better for a knowledge of the agricultural work going on around them. In conclusion, Mr. Cibson gave a hint of. a scheme which would be tried in the public schools next year, to interest the boys and girls in the "Patriotism and Production" movement. The idea was that they ahall turn into money something which they had been responsible for growing���it might be the produce of the school garden, poultry, pigs or calves. The schools would thus be helping in the patriotic movement and at the same time helping and educating themselves. . Mr. Hopkins' address was unfortunately very brief, owing to the lateness of the hour, but he managed to leave a very strong impression of the value of the stock and dairying industry in any community. The fact that labor was occupied all the year round, that there were no great ups and downs ot prices, snd that the best of all fertilizers, barnyard mannre, was constantly being returned to the ground were only a few of the advantages. He was glad to ree the progress which dairying was making hrie. Mr. Hopkins concluded with a reference to the work of the boys' and girls' clubs and competitions wilh which he had been concerned during the past year, and urged that every enccuragement be given to them.
