The speaker explained how the Malay followed the Negritos, who in turn was followed by the Moro or Zulu, but as he pointed out, today the Christianized Malay is what we should consider the Philipine of which there are nine millions, these alone possessing the distinction of the Philipine people und bearing the same relation to Negritos as the* ordinary white man of America does to the Apache of America.

Hosts to Michel and Greenwood Players Wednesday SHOW SPORTSMANSHIP 3EAVER BROTHERHOOD SUGGESTED OBJECTIVE FOR CRANBROOK N. Following the hockey game on Wednesday night a banquet was held in the Cranbrook Hotel, this being given by the C.A.A.A., assisted largely hy members of the Crunbrook Rotary Club and other interested citizens, to which hud been invited the visiting teams aa well as the Cran-' brook and Kimberley hockey teams. Much credit is due Mr. G. T. Moir for the happy thought and the hard work rendered by him in the staging of the pleasant function. With regard to the dinner itself it was most thoroughly enjoyed, the excellent menu provided and the offcient service rendered being much appreciated, With Mr. Alan Graham at the piano the entire company enjoyed the singing of several community songs, following which Mr. C. T. Moir called upon Mayor Roberts lo address the company. His Worship, in welcoming the guests to the city, complimented both Uams on the excellent game which they had put up. In the opinion of his worship the same pleasure thut hud been theirs in seeing tho gnme played fairly would he ours if we played the game in the more serious affairs of life in the same way. He claimed that Cranbrook would be phased to welcome again at any time teams like Greenwood and Michel. Manager Hall, of Michel, extend; ed thanks for the hospitality t.f the citizens of Crunbrook and complimented Greenwood on their hard fought game. Greenwood Hockey History W. Smith, manager of tho Greenwood team, in responding to the toast to tlu* greatest Ltt'e town in tbe west, expressed his pleasure at being present and asked the chairman to accept on behalf of himself and ihe Greenwood team their sincere thanks for the hospitality shown them while in thi) city.

Brand Outlines Scope of Work Brotherhood Might Undertake In another column reference is made to an address by Mr. N. F. Brand, the American consul nt Fernie, on "Directing the Pack," at the United Church Tuesday evening, addressing the Young People's Society. Mr. Brand has been visiting Crnnbrook for the purpose of interesting the people in the Beaver Brotherhood. A yeur ago a Men's Club was organized in the United Church at Fer- , along somewhat unique lines. The club has prospered beyond nil expectations; today it has a membership of 89. But, ns Mr. Brand expressed it, their first year was largely one of experiment. They met bi-weekly to eat together and to listen to and discuss edifying papers and addresses, und sung the usual community songs, but us to their real purpose in life they were more less left ut sea. Their constitu-' tion, like thnt of most men's brotherhoods, contained the usual high- sounding but vague "objects"; but they really had not found their objective. Take Up Boys' Work Finally, after much discussion, they came upon the truth, which, strange to say, had been staring them in the face all the while. The proper busintss of a men's club or brotherhood is "work among the boys." Immediately the Fernie Club made this discovery, they set to work. They organized three boy's groups, tecund a log cabin in the mountains, three miles from town, and fitted it up. Thither the boys snowshoe two or three times a week, play games, hold their meetings, sing songs, and return at ten at night, as the rule provides. The club has not stopped here. They are now engaged in converting the old Methodist church building at Fernie into an institutional centre, where the boys shall have their meeting rooms, a gym and an auditorium; and the girls, too, for the lady workers have also organized three groups of girls. Thc further the men's club went in this matter, the more keenly they felt the need for a general brotherhood throughout Kootenay and southern Alberta; a brotherhood which LOCAL BADMINTON PLAYERS HOLD THEIR OWN WITH KIMBERLEY Saturday afternoon last a quartette of Kimberley badminton piny- ers, consisting of Mr. and Mrs. Cnld- woll, Miss Blackwood nnd A. A. Lilly, met a representation from the Parish Hull Badminton Club here, in a siries of games. Tho honors wont all to thc Crunbrook players, hut the visitors put up some good games, and the matches wore all hard-played affairs. The four Cranbrook players were Mrs. G. F. Marsh, Mrs. G. S. Mcintosh, M. A. Beale and Dr. W. A. Fergte. The events played wore ladies' doubles, gentlemen's doubles, and four matches of mixed doubles, Cranbrook being successful iu them all 'n the aggregate, though the visitors were the winners in a few of the individual games. In nn extra event the Cranbrook ladies met the Kimberley gentlemen, and in this were ulso able to hold their own. On Saturday representatives of the Centrul School Badminton Club will meet the Parish Hall Club players in a series of games. LOCAL REPRESENTATIVE ATTENDS MEETING OF F. I. ADVISORY BD. Mr. A. B. Smith returned on Sunday from Vancouver and Victoria where he had been in attendance nt nu etings of the Advisory Board of the Farmers' Institute. The duty of this bourd is principally to sift out the resolutions of all the Farmers' Institutes for the nine districts of the province before these are presented to the stnnding committee of Agriculture, for submission to the Legislature, besides which all matters which ure to be presented to the different departments of the government, as well as matter to be sent to Ottawa for consideration, art taken up by this board.

When called upon to speak for the Rotary Club, lho members of which were largely responsible for the success of the undertaking, Mr. Alan Graham paid a tribute to the value of sport, claiming that far too little attention was paid to sport. It was most important to play the game cleanly, to take a defeat with a smile and to bear a victory gracefully. It could be taken as an accepted principle tint if h man played the game well he could be relied on as being Btratght in his business. All should encourage the getting of the younger generation into the game for in the making of a good sportsman you marie n good man. Speak* for Kimberley Speaking for Kimberley Hockey cluh Mr. Shannon congratulated the players and referee Powers on the wonderful exhibition whieh he had seen. In explaining why Kimberley had withdrawn from the play Mr. Shannon took oeeasiun to criticize the position in which the teams uf the interior were being placed by the coast cities ami recommended that steps he taken to see that we are given a square deal or withdraw from the association. The fact thut cards were not available for the Greenwood players until today was evidence that there was something lucking in respect to the management of affairs at the coast. Mr. Nagle spoke also for Kimberley and gave thi* interesting information that Kimberley would be possessed next year of a covered rink. In response to the toast lo the Cran. brook hockey cluh Mr. Hogarth said ho regretted that Cranbrook had not got very far ihis year, which he claim ed was possibly due to the fact that tbis is the age of the women and that tbo men*s teum was sitting buck In order that the support of the ladies' team might .not be interfered with.

Twelve hands of cards were played, and then a nice supper was served, after which twelve more hands of cards were played. Mrs. Dan Hamilton secured the ladies' first prize, and the gent's first prize went tu Mr. Bert Revnns. The cards were followed by songs, stories nnd recitations until u late hour, when the guests left expressing the fact that they had enjoyed them selves immensely. The invited guests were Mr. and Mrs. Jack Hamilton, Mr. and Mrs. Dan Hamilton, Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Lythgoe, Mr. and Mrs. I Geo. Baker, Mr. nnd Mrs. Crow, Mr. and Mrs. Williams, Mr. and Mrs. Mc- j Cartney, Mr. and Mrs. Revans, Mrs. Royal, Mrs. Harrison and Mr. Lasher, | The guests were taken to, and re-. turned from, the party by Mr, Lasher, who kindly put his sleigh at their disposal. -I A very successful—-concert Wus staged bv the Yahk young folk on Saturday last in the Mill HaU. The hall wns very well arranged, and the entertainers performed before a ca- pacity house. Mr. C. V. Edwards opened with a very nicely rendered | p'ano solo, which was heartily encored. Some members of the local C.G. LT, then appeared, gaily clad in old time dresses, and singing "In the Days of Those Queer Old Time Fashions," being well encored. Miss M. Kdwards followed with a solo entitled "I'll Forget You," which called for i well deserved encore. Next was a very comical sketch by the young nun, portraying the methods of Dr. Kilh'm Quick ond hia too able assistant, This item brought much laughter, Mr. Dan Hamilton followed with a very nicely played cornet solo en-. titled "Old Pal," and obliged with "The End of a Perfect Day-V as an encore. Some of the Trail Rangers then appeared in a comic skit entitled "An Irish Schoolmaster," nnd as an encore followed with "An' American Sam Waller." Both mim-1 bers met with greut approval. Next was a solo by Mrs. L. P. Williams, I entitled "Smilhv Through," and as un encore returned with "I Hear; Your Voice in the Shadows." The main play of the evening was then staged by the young people. "Getting Off" was the title of this, and the young people had certainly got it off pat. The entertainers showed clearly that local talent on these lines is certainly not absent in Yahk. The setting in this was very tastefully arranged, and this, in a good measure, helped the players to put on one of the best acts ever seen in our local ball. The characters in this play were as follows: grandmother (very deaf—sometimes), Miss M, Edwards; mother, Miss Lena Brogan; Nona (married daughter), Miss M, Stewart; Julia, Miss Grace Raker; Hilde- garde (Julia's little sister), Miss-F. Baum; Mr. Thornton (Bill), Mr. Dan Hamilton. An outline of the play runs something like this: Mr. Thornton, who has been sick, having sufficiently recovered, is leaving for Springfield and is expected to call on Julia th's evening. The whole family is desirous that he shall propose to her before leaving, particularly grandmother and Hlldegarde, who are both romantically inclined. We find Hlldegarde preparing what she calls "a love bower." Later, grandmother diplomatically instructs Bill on the proper manner in which to propose. Bill follows this advice, and after quite a few interruptions manages to make himself understood and is accepted. The concert then ended by everyone singing "God Save the King." Much credit is due to those in charge of the whole performance, Undoubtedly much time and trouble had been spent in mnking this concert the success thnt it certainly was.

Tbe preemptive bid ia sound when two elements are present. First, wben the bid can go game with but average help from partner; and second, if, in cane tlie bid fails to make, it will save or shut out a game bid by the opponents, ln other words, a sound preemptive bid is either a game maker or a game saver. A shutout bid, from this angle, should be at leant three in spades, four in hearts and five in clubs or diamonds. Don't make the mistake, however, of bidding three spades if you hold good help for hearts; or of bidding four hearts if you hold good help for spades. The object of all sound bidding is to arrive at thc best bid of the combined hands and a shutout bid that makes this result impossible is unsound. The following hand was submitted recent ly aud an opinion a||tcd as to the proper bid: Hearts — A, 10, 3 : Y : Clubs —J, 10,3 1A B : Diamonds — none I Z : Spades—A,g,10,8,7,o,2 No score, Y-Z a game In. Z dealt aad passed. If A and Y also passed, what should B bid? B's projier bid is one spade. The reason for this bid, rather than one of three spades, is that partner may bid hearts, and if so, thc hand should be played at hearts rat her than spades, If, however, opponents bid hearts or one of thc other suits, lonrt !i handshould bid to three spades, irrespective of help by partner, lt ia -strong enough to warrant a three spade bid but should bc bid only one at first to get the heart bid from partner if possible. Preemptive bids as a rule should lie avoided and only handled by player* who understand why and when to mnke them. They are apt to react on the bidder and be a source of loss, rather than gain. If handled at ull, they should be used with great discretion. The tcstAund forwarded from Eng' land and given aa a problem in the previous article, is a freak, and most any* thing could happen to it.

Needless to say, steps have been taken lu properly define the status of the new ambassador, who it i*- understood is vested with full plenary powers, so far as representing Canada's own national interests are concerned. ***** * RUNNING TRUE TO FORM the Courier, but sheer spite. I Now there is thc spectacle of the editor of the Courier, having vociferously shouted for a celebration to be sponsored by one body, and having editorially backed sentiments that deprecated any imperial significance being giveu to the celebration, actually seconding a resolution that repudiates his own editorial stand, and recommending that the celebration arrangements be tarried on under entirely different auspices. This is one phase of its irresponsible—to put it very considerately—attitude that needs elucidation. Another is the question of the Courier abrogating to itself the right to invite another Canadian, just as interested in the adequate celebration of Canada's diamond jubilee as itself, to take the next boat back home, ls there no room for diverse opinions in lhc Kootenays, which may have equal merit? Is the country not large enough for varied ideas? Apparently uot, iu the view of the Courier. It takes the position, and in the language of the gutter expatiates on it, that if any other paper dare express a contrary view to its own, then a flood of abuse and ridicule is called for. ************************** TWENTY YEARS AGO Extract! from tha li.uo of The Creubrook Herald of this Date Twenty Yeare Ago. HII ********************** which its audience will NO doubt the people of East Kootenay generally will join with the Herald in expressing the hope that it i- not true the Courier will go no further in the pleasant little discussions it has been engaged in regarding other papers, weekly and daily of late. Tlu- public will agree, particularly in view of iln- developments of the past week, that there are more questions the Courier should elucidate, and explanations to be made on be held breathless. Before coming to these perhaps a digression can bc sanctioned in order to show how far the Courier has strayed from the original issue which it raised itself not the Herald—and how little regard it has for tin* ordinary niceties of life, by which if a mistake is made there is at least an admission of it. or if not there can be allowed a reiteration. Thc Courier's policy instead is to attempt to cover up one faux pas with another, and then seek to wriggle out of ils untenable position in a smokescreen of abuse, sarcasm and cheap wit The Herald took exception to an editorial statement made by the Courier that the Cranbrook correspondent oi tbe Xelson News did not know what they were talking about; that it had heen stated there were lo lie only four beer licenses granted in Cranbrook. Tlie Herald showed this was not what was said, bin thc Courier blithely disregarded this and changed ils tactics into a frontal attack on this paper. The Herald again repeats what it said in the first place, lhal such a statement from the Courier was only made wilh the object in view of be- littlemcnt and from motives of spite. That this is true w.as demonstrated when thc following week came another onslaught against the Nelson News for daring to criticize in an editorial sentiments to which the Courier thereby gave implied support, along with a tirade against this paper. The Herald slated iwo weeks ago that such were but reflections of the methods which the Courier employs in discussions of thi.s nature, aud no better commentary on this could be had than the editorial effort witli which the Courier again comes forth last week. The Herald stated, and does so with more emphasis and aptness than before, that the Courier has shown once again that it cannot treat any criticism made of ii with any regard for truth, logic and moderation, lis editorial last week is a characteristic tissue of falsity and misrepresentation, too crude lo be logical, and most immoderate in its expressions of hyperbole ami exaggeration. It can be quickly passed over as such, with but one com ment, which is to point out just how the Courier seeks to evade any reply to the first statement made by the Herald. From a too generous sense of magnanimity, the Herald refrained from further embarassing the Courier by making any reference last week to the interesting situation which the Courier found itself in as a result of its second headlong assault on the Xelson News, Perhaps it was the kind providence that looks after newspaper saints and angels' that placed in our bauds a cluh with which we were very much tempted to smite the Courier as it sought on its hands aud knees lo crawl out of the hole in which it found that its over-ardent brand of Canadianism had placed it. It was certainly the chance of a lifetime. Thc fact remains tiiat the anomalous position in whicb the Courier now stands in regard to the fostering of a Dominion Hay celebration here by a local organization is a direct outcome of one of its ill tempered attacks on anything or anyone who dares to offer an opinion counter to its own egotistical ideas. Xot only so, but this same spirit has succeeded in placing in an entirely wrong light a local organization which.Jcft to itself, would most likely have carried to a creditable conclusion a project which all Canadians, native antl adopted, are heartily in sympathy with. The Courier cannot evade the fact that ihr turn of events by'which it now seems that this same organization must give way to others in fostering lhe project, was precipitated entirely liy its hasty defence of an article, which it has since in its own edilorial column contradicted. It all goes to show thai it was not a matter ol principle with' Further evidence of this crops up in another qttarler when the Courier dubs a representative of the returned men—wdio thought enough of his adopted country to fight for the very liberties tbat thc Courier is now badly abusing—"a native Britisher of jingo tendencies." Not content with this, thc Courier deliberately misrepresents for its own purposes what was said by the same returned man, Why was this done? For the same reason—because au opinion diverse to that of the Courier was ex- pressed. What a crime!- And now that the Courier has changed its tunc by seconding a resolution that the returned men themselves drew up, deeming it more discreet apparently than to make good on a threat to "give them another dose of it," no doubt it wishes it had held its horses somewhat. This i.s a long story, but not longer than thc singular duplicity of the Courier deserves, and there* is more to it yet. In the meantime, if it can be done without dragging in what it thinks of thc Herald and those connected with it—which is already an old story, as plenty of references to its editorial columns will show—the public in general would wei* come a sane, impersonal and logical statement as to just what the Courier does stand for in regard to the points wliich it started out bravely to criticize, and then lost sight of in the maze of its own con fused verbiage.

CALLS FOR EXPLANATION IT i.s noted that an explanation has apparently been made by way of a letter commented on in the Nelson News on Wednesday, of thc statement that appeared in both local papers last week, purporting to come from the Cranbrook Assembly, Native Sons of Canada, in respect to an article recently appearing in the "Canadian," and commented on by tbe Nelson News and the Courier. Mr. J. F. Huchcroft admit the authorship of the statement, but-.though his let ter to the News is not published, it is evident there is further explanation still needed, and it seems a pity that seeing the matter concerned the local pa pers as well, they have not been furnished with a similar communication. It was Mr. Huchcroft himself wdio volunteered to furnish for the Herald a statement of the stand of the Native Sons on tlie sentiments expressed in the article which was complained of. That was hot handed in till a few minutes before going to press. and was placed in a space about the size which Mr. Huchcroft had previously indicated would be re quired for it. In undertaking to furnish this state ment for thc newspapers, Mr. Huchcroft did so in order that it might be set out correctly, and not be mistaken. This is distinctly what was slated to tbe Herald. In his explanation made to the Nelson News, Mr. Huchcroft refers to "two statements" which were handed in, one of which was the resolution proper of the Native Sons, and the other which he says were sonic comments of his own. The impression he seeks to give, apparently, is that these were confused in publication, but this was not the case, as it will be noted that both local papers took tbe same impression of the statement. The state ment, in point of fact, was all ou one sheet, closely written, and if the different paragraphs represented different classes of material, there was nothing in the world to distinguish ii. The first paragraph which is now designated as the resolution proper, does not contain all that some who were present at the meeting which authorized its presentation understood it should. On the statement handed iu it wns in quotation marks just as published, but there was nothing to make it clear that the remainder of the wording was not also a part of the statement. But even granting they were private comment and not authorized by the Assembly, what would they be prepared for and handed in to a newspaper, if not for publication, and coming from one whom the Herald knew was undertaking the preparation of an official statement on the matter, what other interpretation could bc put on it than that it was all for publication? These explanations are made in justice to all concerned, so that any impression may be corrected that the Herald was anxious to give undue prominence to sentiments which were supposed to be representative of the feeling of the Native Sons, but which it now turns out were not. Nevertheless, it would have created a better impression if thc author of the statement had seen his way clear to make any correction of wrong impressions arising from the construction of the document through the local press first. Canada In a Nutshell NAME "CANADA Q-—Where did the nnme "Canada" come from? A.—The name "Canada" is probably derived from the Huron word "Knnndn," which means "a village or settlement." The early French writers used the term "Canadten" to designate the Algonquin tribes on or near the St. Lawience, as distinguished from the Algonkin nnd Mic- mnc. Jacques Cartier applied the name Canada to the country adjacent to Stadaconn (Quebec), the chief of which he designated as "the King of Canada." sWiWsWvwvwwnwsVA: LAKE fWINDERMERE NOTES (Special to Thc Herald) lnvermere, B.C., Feb. 10th.—Mrs. P.

Hope Brewer came into town on Friday from his winter quarters at Marble Canyon on the Banff- Windermere highway.

The annual meeting of the Church of England parish of Windermere takes place in the basement parlors of Christ Church, lnvermere, at 8 o'clock on the evening of Monday, the Uth of this month. Carnivorous fur bearing animals seem to be very plentiful this winter throughout the Lake Windermere district, owing, probably, to there being a heavier fall of snow than usual, which makes it difficult for the members of the deer family to travel rapidly. They thus fall a prey to their enemies. Many wolverines have been trapped nnd also cougar. The tatter are generally shot. Jimmle Nens, a Kootenay Indian, brought down with his rifle a few days since a cougar which had been traced by his dog. in the Kootenay River valley. It measured ten feet from snout to thc tip of his tail, and stood over three feet high. MOYIE NOTES \ Rev. M. S. Blackburn and Rev. Dr. Douglas were visitors in on Tuesday from Cranbrook.

Many who could be accumulating a fortune and an independent income fail to do so by thinking that the little they could save periodically is not worth while. In the greater number of instances, wealth is not the result of luck, but the ability to earn, save, and invest wisely. Money can be put to work and yield a good return without any great risk and the small savings of the wage earner can do it as surely hs the larger savings of the professional or business mnn. The smaller a man's income, the greater his need for provision for the future, and the greater his care should be in thc saJecliun of his investments. Under our Partial Payment Plan for buying Investment Securities, If he can save ten or fifteen dollars u month, he can create nn independent income. Business und professional men and women will find in this plan the method of putting their savings to work to the be.it advantage, How fust money will grow when well invested can be seen from thc following, showing what can be done by saving ¥■'•'► per month for thirty years: 1. If hoarded, as done when sound investments did not exist for the average person, it would amount to $0,000. 2. If placed in a bank at 3% per annum compounded half- yearly, without withdrawing the interest, it would amount lo ¥1*1,500, giving an nnnual income of $-i;i(i.80, or $8.40 por week. 3. If invested under our Partial Payment plan it would amount to a principal lum of more than $26,400 in IiirIicrndo Government, Municipal, anil Industrial necuritici, giving nn annual income of $1,584 and a weekly income of over $30 a week. Estimated results attained under our Pnrtlul Payment Plan are based on the assumption thnt the savings and investments will earn G'/c compounded half-yearly. Under this plan of saving, your money is just as accessible us in a bank with the added feature of greater interest returns. NO CHARGE FOR CONSULTATION EXCERPT from Minute of Executive Meeting of the Cranbrook Branch of the Canadian Legion, B. E. S. L, held on 6th February, 1927:— RESOLVED:—that this branch of the Canadian Legion deeply regrets that Cranbrook Assembly No. 22 of the Native Sons of Canada though it fitting to contribute the Resolution, which they did, to the local press. In connection with thc celebration of Canada's Diamond Jubilee and THAT the thc final paragraph of the Resolution was, to say the least of it, inopportune and illadvised. THAT this branch believes that the feeling conveyed in the Resolution referred to is not shared by the great majority of the local Assembly but that harm has nevertheless resulted which will militate against the loyal and enthusiastic co-operation necessary to ensure success, THEREFORE is is suggested that His Worship, the Mayor, as representing the community, be respectfully requested to convene a meeting of all interested so that preparations may be made to celebrate worthily this great day in the history of Canada. particulars will be given in the press.

September is becoming a popular month for marriages judging by tho number of honeymoon couples leaving from Windsor Street Station, Montreal, recently, On Labor Day no less than fill couples boarded thc Canadian Pacific trains at this depot, The record established for ono day, however, was some yeurs ago in Juno when 70 couples left Windsor Station one morning. The new North Channel below Quebec will be opened to navigation on June 1 next and continue during the high water season, according to a recent announcement of the Marine Department. The new channel extends in a straight line from St. Jean, Isle of Orleans, to near the north shore. The work has been underway for the past ten years. The minimum depth of water at high tide will be 35 feet. When all the work is done there will be the same minimum at low tide. "The Little Red Schoolhouse" will be brought on rails to the children living in the remote areas along the Canadian Pacific in Northern Ontario between Sudbury and Chapleau. Fully equipped with desks and teachers' accommodations the railway cars will visit about six points a month. There are about 400 pupils in these areas of the North who suffer disadvantages from the lack of school accommodation. It is expected that eventually the entire areas will be served by travelling schools. Immigration to Canada in the first six months of 1926 amounted to 70,- 253, compared with 43,241 in the same period a year ago, an increase of 62 per cent, according to a statement issued by the Department of Immigration and Colonization. In the period under review British immigration increased from 20,452 to 27,849; immigration from thc United States' increased from 8,036 to 10,037 and from other countries increased from 14,753 to 82,367.

One farmer using this outfit claims to have covered from 35 to 50 acres per day at a cost of 46 cents an • acre. He says that they save the cost of twine and about nine-tenths of the labor of harvesting. The implements cost about $2,000. A preliminary conference, the results of which may be of the utmost importance to the Maritime Provinces, was held in the Board Room of the Canadian Pacific Railway at cently kt the Invitation of E. W. Beatty, chairman and president ef Windsor street station here re- tho company. It was attended by Hon. B. N. Rhodes, Premier of Nova Scotia; Hon. J. B. M. Baxter, Premier ef New Brunswick; Hon. J. D. Stewart, Premier of Prince Edward Island; E. W. Beatty, chairman and president of the Canadian Pacific Railway; A. V.

MODERATOR ON ViSIT HERE SPEAKS OF CHURCH'S PROGRESS Dr. A. J. MacGillivary, moderator of thc Presbyterian Church in Canada, who has been visiting various parts of the provinces aad the middle west, spoke on Tuesday night before a good audience in Knox Presbyterian Church, for the information and encouragement of the congregation. Referring to the strong Presby- lerian Church remaining in the Central synods, he snld that the inference was plain' that the chureh would again be strong in the east and west. He expressed gratification at the fart that there are two hundred and fifty preaching places in the west already, and that Saskatchewan showed an Increase of 250 per cent for the' past year. Dr. MacGillivary feels confident thnt ut the present rate of pro- j gross the Church will soon be back I to its standing of former years. Regaining Ground Regarding the ability of the Chureh to look after any financial problems that may arise, he claimed there is little fear when it is considered thoy gave 18,810,000 in 1925. With regard to membership, while not in u position to give accurate fig- H, ere an dTh ere UTOB, he knew thut the growth had been enormous, and felt sure that when the census of Canada was taken! it would .show a Presbyterian population of over half a million. While the recollection of the great withdrawal with the recent losses entailed is by no means u happy one, it is pleasing to realize that they were still linked up with the great parent body of thc* Presbyterian Church, with its past achievements and bright promises for the future. The speaker felt that while the division that had been wrought hud been the cause of much sorrow on the part of many, it was pleasing to know that 9,600 others had, in the first year after separation, joined Unchurch on profession of i faith. He extolled the truly wonderful spirit of the people, As in the affairs of the state the spirit of the peoplo is the determining factor, so in the Church the spirit displayed Is the gauge by which its greatness may be measured. The more unconquerable the spirit, Lhe greater the success possible, The speaker praised the unequalled liberality of the people, giving many examples of this, He tiad no fears for the financial aspect with churches made up largely of those ready at all times to do anything for eon- science and conviction's sake. A happy result of the separation was the family or spirit of friendliness which had been created; the congregations were more like families. Ample Scope For Churches In conclusion, the speaker claimed that they could give good and sufficient reasons why the Pre§byt( rian .'liureh should continue, one being that as the Presbyterian Church in the past had made a special contribution to the religious life of the country, it should be preserved in order that this contribution might be continued. He felt that there was nn abundant scope for the Presbyterian Church in Canada, and recommended them to pray for its continuance, assuring them that in later years, in 'ooking back on what at this time might be considered dark spot, would stand out in reality as the brightest in the history of the Church. On the conclusion of the address, the pastor, Kev. M. S. Blackburn, thanked the speaker for his illuminating address. Following this a social hour was spent in thc Sunday School room, where refreshments were served by the Indies. VIOLIN PUPILS OF MR.

SHOPPING AT .THE MADEIRA ISLANDS SALVATION ARMY DIV. COMMANDER ADDRESSES MEETINGS On Tuesday evening of this week Brigadier Layman, of the Salvation Army, Divisional Commander, conducted the usual week-night meeting In the local hall. A good crowd wns present, nnd the Brigadier gave a very interesting address on "Burden Bearing." He mentioned the yoke by which oxen drew their burdens, ind how, though a yoke-v.T.s a heavy and a cutnbersome thing in appear- [ .inee, it had been found the on.y practicable wuy by which o>:.?n are able to draw heavy loads. And so with men and women, he s.iid, the easiest way \o carry their different burdens was under the yoke of Jesus Christ. He pointed out that the idnner did not lose his burden altogether when he accepted the salvation of Christ, but was shown the easiest way to bear these burdens, Again, he Bald, heie were many unnecessary burdens which we sometimes carried, -uch ns worry, foolish habits and ustoms, etc. One of which he made special mention was thut of a mon ■r woman trying to live a Christian f the most majestic ice-clad peak.-! in the Rockins. Then, oo, :he growth it the bungalow ramp Idea hus boon phenomenal this season.

TO REORGANIZE PROVINCIAL GAME BOARD IS PLAN More Consideration To Requirements of Farmers On the Land To Be Shown (Special to Tho Herald) Victoria, Feb. 5th.—Consideration of suggestions for betterment of the Game Act and regulations thereunder, in the legislative committee on Agriculture nnd at a mooting of the Game Conservation Boa*rd last weekend, showed fj. gratifying unanimity of desire by all concerned to cement extra-amicable relations between sportmen and farmers, leuning toward the latter if the rival interests canot be harmonized. Farmer* On Game Board The Game Board of seven will be reconstituted, * with three farmer members hereafter. Farmers will receive free permits to trap on and near their properties, without taking out trappers' licenses. Free gun licenses for the farmer to shoot game birds and beasts at any time on his property or even beyond its boundaries, if injury is done by the woods- folk, in future will be carried by thc police and gnme board officers, for the greater convenience of the man on the soil. Bounty of $7.50 will be paid for coyote (except winter killed) and bounties will be revived to encourage the destruction of big horned owls, gOH-hawks and the Cooper hawk, all enemies of the agriculturist. Fostering the Fur Farm Development of fur farming as a sideline of the hinterland settler's activities, will be specially encouraged, Major Furber, chief game inspector, seeing in this new industry (there are now 320 fur farms operating in this province) possibilities of the highest importance to British Columbia growth and prosperity. This province, he told the Agricultural Committee, is infinitely better capitalized for success in fur farming than any other part of the American continent, in suituble territory, climate, available basic stock, etc. It much better endowed in those essentials than is Louisiana, yet the fur farms of that state last year reported a product of the market value of fifty million dollars. on careful study of nil phases of the subject, reasonable development of fur farming in British Columbia will assure a yearly production of five Limes the fur wealth of Louisianna, or $250,000,000 annually, making this industry twice as important as fisheries and as great a source of provincial wealth as fisheries and mining combined. Indiscriminate Killing A serious situation, based on the allowance to farmers of the right to kill game at any time for crop protection, is brought to public notice by M. B. Jackson. This is the seriously developed practice of Asiatic gardeners and farmers of killing game birds wholesale and indiscrimi nately, not for crop protection but for the large profits derivable through tho surreptitious sale of pheasants und quail moro particularly, both in and out of season. GREAT WEST LIFE STATEMENT SHOWS SOLID PROGRESS IN 1926 Elsewhere iu this issues these is published tho condensed statement of the Great West Life Assurance Co., of Winnipg, covering the past year's operations, which will he read with interest by the many shareholders of tho company in this district. During 1926 the Company has progressed in a manner quite consistent with its previous history. The new business production has been maintained at ubout the same high level which wus reached last year. The business in force is now well over 450 million dollars. The surplus earnings have been increased and tho expense rates have been maintained on a very moderate basis. While the death rate was a little higher ythnn during 11)25, it was nevertheless vory favorable. The gross interest rate continues at over 0^9r, and a net rate of 6% will he maintained during 1927 for the payment of interest on policy proceeds nnd other funds left with the Company, During the past fifteen years tho business of Life Insurance has broadened out into new and extensive fields. As mentioned above, policyholders now require tbo companies not only to insure their lives, but nlso to retain and administer the proceeds of their policies after maturity. The Great West Life now insures people not only against death and old age, but also against total and permanent disability, aud many policies contain provisions whereby the claim will be doubled if death occurs by accident. The business under the disability and accident plans is assuming large proportions. During lt»2G. the premiums received from those two sources wcre'$2:i6,40St,001 und in both respects the experience during the year was favorable. Regarding investments, the company has experienced no reuson to depart from their policy of favoring first mortages, but the demand for mortagos has not been equal to tho supply of money, and we have been forced to purchase a considerable amount of bonds. Their bond holdings now amount to over twenty- seven millions, as against nbout thir- n Major Furber's opinion, based ty-three millions of mortages, und of t^jfw*. wH9caaim CONDENSED ANNUAL STATEMENT Increase Over 1926 1925 New Business Issued (Ordinary) $ 72,205,135.00 $ 688,778.00 Business in Force (Ordinary) 453,758,333.00 36,055.175.00 Income 21,812,121.15 2,333,325.99 Assets - 83,520445.92 10,343,376.18 Labilities 80,267,266.37 10,091,868.33 Gross Surplus Earned 4,086,872.35 124,470.00 Provision for Future Profits to Policyholders 8,314,525.00 1,078,453.00 Unnssigned Profits and Contingency Reserve - 3,153,079.55 351,50745 The Surplus Earned in 1926 $4,086,872.35 WAS THE LARdEST IN THE COMPANY'S HISTORY DURING 1927 THE COMPANY WILL PAY Increased Profits to Policyholders ASSURANCE HEAD OFFICE COMPANY — WINNIPEG JAMES MARTIN - - Representative r»«wk»AAlr R C Martin Bros' Office, l/ranDrOOK, D.V. the bonds nearly thirteen millions have been either issued or guaranteed by the Dominion and Provincial governments. The interest past due on bonds is an insignificant item, and it has been decreasing annually. The Great West could now sell their bonds on the market for nearly one million more than tho amounts at which they have been taken into the financial statement. Thc Company has not entered any new territory since 1922, and it is not the intention of tbe directors to do so. at least in the near future. They believe they can moat surely maintain a high dividend scale by an intensive cultivation of their present fields, rather than by spreading out over wider areas. So long, therefore, as their present territory is sufficient to yield reasonable increases En new business, there does not seem to bo any valid argument for an extension. VERDICT GIVEN WALDO CHINAMAN DIED FROM SELF-INFLICTED WOUNDS A ebroner*s inquest was held at Fernie last week to inquire into the death of Leung Quie, demented Chinaman, who ran amuck in Waldo, B.C., on Docember 30th, shooting Constable Sharpe, of Elko, and Frank McNab, of Waldo, and who later died in the General hospital at Fer-'duty. Frank McNab was the recipient nie from a self-inflicted bullet wound. Constable Ira A. Brown, of Fernie, in his evidence, stated he heard two shots and muffled moans proceeding from inside the barricaded shack, and communicated the information to Sgt. Greenwood that he thought the Chinaman hnd shot him- self. Upon the sergeant entering the shack he found the Chinaman lying on the floor wounded. He afterwards received a .455 Webley service revolver from Sgt. Greenwood, which the latter stated he found under the Chinaman. Chief Anderson, of the city police, produced a heavy woollen sweater and mackinaw worn by the Chinaman, which showed burnt powder marks and holes through which the bullet had passed in front, coming out through the small buttoned belt at the waist at the back of the mack' in aw. It was also given in evidence that a bullet used in the Webley service revolver fitted into the holes in the sweater and mackinaw. After hearing all the evidence, the jury retired, bringing in a verdict of suicide, that the said Chinaman had met his death by a bullet wound, self- inflicted. Constable Sharpe was discharged from the Cranbrook hospital last week, and will resume light police of a letter of commendation from the superintendent of the provincial police for his valuable assistance. On account of a severe attack of influenza, Sgt. Greenwood was unable to attend the inquest, his place being taken by Constable E. Davies of the Fernie detachment.

The final meeting will be held in the United Church tomorrow (Friday) afternoon ut 4 p.m., and a grand rally in the Presbyterian Church at 7,.'i0 the same evening. Come nnd make this final mooting a great success, Tuesday evening was a busy one in local church circles. The Moderator of the Presbyterian Church, Rev. Dr. McGillivruy, accompanied by Rev. Dr. DOuglas, were at the Presbyterian Church. Brigadier Layman, of the Salvation Army, spoke at the headquarters. Mr. Ware gave an address at the Buptist Church, and Mr. N. F. Brand spoke to the United .Church young people. Whether this I means that Cranbrook is iu a bad wny rcligiouslv—needing all these outside messages to help us, or wheth I er it indicates a revival of religious interest, is uncertain Let us hope it is the latter. The local Boy Scouts will parade to the United Church on Sunday morning, accompanied by the Cubs and Rovers—the younger and older Scouts. The boys themselves will take an important part of the service. Murray MacFarlane, Assistant Scoutmaster, will give ' a short address on "The Aims and Objects of the Scout Movement." Graham Dale and Colvin McBurney will speak on some of the Scout laws, nnd Harlan Clarke will read the scripture lesson. The singers among the boys will take the place of the Junior Choir, and will render a special anthem. The minister will give u brief message on "Some Elements of Heroism." * * * Thc annual meeting of the Anglican Women's Missionary Society is being held this week in Nelson.

How urgently the building of the Canadian 1'acific Railway was needed to link the apparent divisions of the vast country called Hritish North America! Fortunately men of "vision," determination and unswerving resolutions were at the head of affairs, and nothing daunted, grasped tho situation in the hour of peril and one might say of hopelessness. These stupendous difficulties and obstacles were surmounted, and in spite of raw- notions of Ill-advised disloyalists, the Onion -lack became tbe permanent Btnblem of Canadian loyalty, and not some other patched up flag whicb represented nothing stable or commendable to men of spirit or self-reliance. Rite of the Feniani * The return of Riel ttf Red River was fl signal for the rem wal of councils amongst the Metis of St. Nor- bert. O'Donoghue, meanwhile, endeavored to concentrate across the boundary the Fenian forces with whom he bad sought from the first to identify the Insurrection! As early as August, 1871, the Manitnbnn noticed rumors of Fenian preparations under General O'Neil and O'Pono-j ghue. The United States consul, J. \V. Tnylor, seems to have hewn fully' npprised of the movement in Septem-! however, centres in the Metis of Manitoba. The departure of Bishop Tache just before the crisis, is only one of the indications that with consideration the Metis were prepared to part company with their allies of the insurrection. A proclamation of Lieutenant-Governor Archibald on October 8rd was responded to by the inhabitants of Kildonan and Winnipeg "almost to a man." On October 4th tho position of Riel formed the subject of an interview between Governor Archibald and Pere Richot. I'ere Richot on thc following day wrote: "1 do not believe that he should place himself at their head Unless he had some guarantee that his proceedings would bc looked upon with favor by Your Excellency." Governor Archibald r#lied that the eo operation of the French Metis and their leaders in defence of the Crown Would be very wclcmncfand could not he looked upon otherwise than as entitling Ihem to the most favorable consideration. ^^ Retribution Demanded ' hei*.

From the Fenians themselves little danger seems to have been apprehended. The newly appointed Dominion lands agent, then on his way to the settlement, informed Bishop Tache, who had jUBt left Red River for Ottawa, that there were not more thnn seventy men in Pembina, and probably not half that numher, and that there was nothing to fear from outside forces, all would depend on how it stood with the Metis and others within the province, l It was wvident that O'Donoghue was relying on the general support of the insurgent party. In a letter tiv the speaker of- the House of Commons in 1871), he affirmed that the movement was merely a continuation of the insurrection; that he held u commission authorized by n resolu- ■ tion of the council held at niviero Salle in September, 1870, nt which Louis Kiel presided, and that his com having been enthusiastic, had been devoted. The Winnipeg volunteers left for the border under Major Irvine on the evening of October 6th, marching through deep prairie mud, made almost impassable by torrents of rain, only to hear that the "raid" had already heen broken up. When it was found that more than three hundred and fifty Metis assembled ut St. Boniface on Sunday, October Rth, nnd had been reviewed by the Lieutenant-Governor, and that Riel and Lepine had been thanked in public and shaken by the hand- by the representative of the Crown, the indignation of the British volunteers could scarcely bo restrained.
