LEAGUE REPORT
AGAINST UNION
OF SOUTH AFRICA
Alleges Administration of
Mandate in Southwest
Africa Against Natives
GENEVA, Sept. 2. — (By Canadian
Press Cable,. via Reuter's) — Pointed
criticism of. the South African government's administration of Southwest
Africa is ' contained * in the report to
the League of Nations cf the third
fltselon of the permanent mandates
commission, which sat • from July 20
to August 10, at which session the
administration of 11 British colonial
mandated territories was concluded,
Blacks   How  Important.
The Bondelzwarts' rising in Southwest Africa was particularly Investigated. The chairman of the commission, the marquis of Theodoli, ln an
annex to the report, declares that the
covenant of the league ban profoundly
altered colonial administration, and
that the interests of natives are now
more important than the interostB of
the whites, but that the administration of Southwest Africa has been
wholly concerned in maintaining Its
own authority in defence of the interests  of  the   minority   whites.
The marquis of Theodoli, after
recognizing the difficulty of the task
confronting a mandatory  power, adds:
"My conscience, however, will not
allow me. to admit that these difficulties Justify departure from tlie
principles of the mandate; a departure whioh, Instead of appearing to
bo a demonstration of strength arid
superiority, might be considered as indication of weakness, anl Incapacity
in the exercise of the mission, which
is only a lofty one if its true spirit
is respected,"
Smuts   Not to  Bltm*.
The report expresses the conviction
that the mandatory power, under the
distinguished and enlightened statesman, General Smuts, fully shares the
ideals of the covenant as regards the
mandatory's responsibilities to the
backward races.
The commission considers that the
primary cause of the Bromlelzwart uprising was natural ,distrust on the
part of the whites and the blacks,
which was responsible for previous
revolts in Southwest Africa, "where
even educated classes have regarded
the natives bb existing chiefly for the
purpose of labor for the whites." '
The report, referring to remedial
measures needed in the Bondelzwart
territory, says that steps must be
taken to remove the dog tax and the
branding iron grievances, and to Inaugurate a revision of the native reserves.

GOVERNOR PINCHOT
STILL OPTIMISTIC
Advises Both Sides to Study
Public Opinion Before
Wednesday's Meet
» -—
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. - 2.~-The
recess until next Wednesday ln the
anthracite wage negotiations en me
as a welcome respite to the group
of miners and operators who have
been attempting to reach an -nrnn-
ment on a new contract between the
companies and the 155,01)0 mine workers. It was believed that the recess, to which each side readily
agreed yesterday, prevented an immediate break, as the conference
at the state capitol yesterday appeared to be in an almost hopeless
deadlock.
Governor Pinchot In his statement
last night said that he welcomed
the breathing space for the hard
pressed leaders of both sides, and
urged them to use it in "acquiring
a realizing sense of the public point
of view."
The most vital point at Issue Is
that of wages. The governor proposed that all mine workers be given
a   10  per  cent   Increase.
The operators indicated their acceptance, on condition that a long
term contract be agreed upon, containing a provision for adjusting
wnges annually, by arbitration If
necessary,
The union leaders looked with favor on the 10 per cent advanve for
contract miners, but said it was Inadequate  for  men  paid  by  the  day.
They cast aside the suggestion of
arbitration.   •
Governor Tinchott'Ifl fltlil optimise

developments ore looked for before
the  middle  of the week,
Labor day ln the coal field, where
the suspension Is complete, will be

no struggle between the workers and
the mine owners  were In  progress.

ATHENS, Sept. 2.—Complete order
prevails In Athens, although the
Greek people are profoundly depressed over the incidents at Corfu.
All places of amusement have been
closed since Friday as a sign of
mourning for the victims of the
Italian   bombardment.
Acting upon a protest from Signor
Montagna, tho Italian foreign minister, the Greek government suspended for one day the newspaper Eleu-
theros Tipos, for characterizing the
Italians as "the fugitives ' of CapO-
reito," and has dismissed the censor
for allowing the statement to pass.
Italy   Closet   Greek   Canal
Telegraphic communication with
Corfu has not yet been restored,
but dispatches received by Indirect
routes indicate that the Italians are
now acting as If in a state of war
with Greece For Instance, they have
closed the Corfu canal to Greek navigation; have held up a Greek steamer
at   Brlndisl,   and   fired   upon   another.
Premier. Gonitas has reiterated the
government's intention to await the
decision of the League of Nations,
and of refraining from any hostile
or unfriendly acts toward Italy. All
Italian vessels In Greek ports are
allowed   full   liberty  of movement.
Internal dissensions havo existed
here since 1314, hut today, for the
first time, the entire press stands
In complete accord on the subject of
the  Italian   coup.   ■
The Polltikl  says:
"By the bomhardment of Corfu,
Italy ignored the League of Nations,
of which she is a member, Italian
shells were fired against misery-
stricken human beings rescued from
Turkish massacre by Americans. This
action Indicates a complete absence
of morality, and erases Italy's signature from an international agreement."
Admiral    Closes   Straits
The Italian admiral, Bellini, has
forbidden the passage of all Greek
steamers through the straits of
Otranto, and all Greek shipping companies have suspended sailings for
Italy. Four Greek steamers are detained in Italian ports. An Italian
submarine has seized the .Greek
rteamer Olorgias ln the straits nf
Corfu. ■  |
The Italian military attache who
wns sent to Janlnd tn inquire into

Corfu Step Provisional
'LONDON. ' Sept. J.—The Italian
premier, Mussolini, has telegraphed
to all the powers, and the League
of Nations, that the Italian occupation . of.' .Corfu was. .a provisional
one, and the Italian minister at
Athens Informed the Greek government that It had not been regarded
as a hostile act and advised that
Greece . should refrain, from belligerency, adding that the Italian fleet
would leave when Italy's demands
had ben complied with.
Greece has protested to the powers against the bombardment of Corfu, and makes the point that the
Italians opened fire at 4 o'clock in
the afternoon, whereas the second
ultimatum wm no* to expire until 5
o'clock. Greece also makes the point
that Corfu was not fortified.
Mussolini's Ambitions
The Italian navy proceeded with
the organization .of Corfu In a businesslike way. The proceeding is

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.—Severe
earth tremors which began at 10:04

more than two hours, were recorded
on the Georgetown university seismograph. The disturbance ended at
12:30 a. m., the Intensity reaching

another disturbance, apparently in the
same area, had neen recorded on the

6:50 p. m. The second convulsion, I
he said, was "very, much" less violent j
than the one observed  last night.      -j
Both shocks. Father Tondorf declared, occurred In the bed of the

which swtpt the Japanese coast Saturday, following the earthquake, is
a possibility discussed here tonight.
The great liner, with many Canadian,
European and United States passengers aboard, was due out of the
port of Yokohama 12 hours before
the tidal wave swept the coast, en*
gulfing thousands of small craft, and
drowning many thousands of people.
Ivocal officials believe that un-
less the liner was caught Inshore

easiness regarding Mussolini's ambitions, fur the Italian' premier is
still a man of mystery abroad. It
is not forgotten in Great Britain that
about the time of his rise to power
he made a speech voicing his belief
that Italy's destiny Is to play a more
powerful part ln the Mediterranean
than   hltherfore.
France's and Gren t Britain's ambassadors have not been instructed to
make any representations to the
Italian   government.
Tension  Unrelaxed       '
LONDON, Sept. 2.—The lapse of
another day finds no diminution ln
the tension or gravity of the Greco-
Itallan dispute. No further overt or
hostile act is recorded, but a grave
aspect of the situation ln the Italian
determination, expressed beforehand,
to refuse to recognize the status
of the League of Nations In the
affair,  or respect   Its   decision.
The British editorial writers have
found consolation In commenting on
the dispute, In the consideration that
in 1914 no International body, such
as the League of Nations, or council
of ambassadors, existed, to Which
the Austro-Serbian dispute might
have been submitted with some hope
of avoiding war. This hope will,
they say, be shattered if Italy refuses to recognize the  league.
Both the Greek and Italian governments are energetically occupying
themselves in placing their respective
cases before the world. The Italian
press does not hesitate to impute
criminal motives to Greece. The
Greek government, on Its side, Is offering to submit the responsibility
for the murders to an international
tribunal, and to abide by any decision, and pay the compensations
the   tribunal   decrees.
Italy contends that the Greek government has not been recognized by
the powers, and lacks the status
or right of appeal to the League of
Nations, which ought to regulate Its
application, and argues that otherwise Greece will secure recognition
through   assassination.
Meanwhile the council of the lengue
which Is considering the dispute, is
proceeding leisurely, and ' has adjourned   the   case.
Crete  Demonstrates Against  Italy
Another disquieting feature of the
affair Is a report from Rome of anti-
Itnlian demonstrations In the island
of Crete, which, it is feared, may be
a prelude to a descent upon that
island,   like  Corfu.
International statesmen are preserving a discrete alienee on the
subject.
M. Poincare of France made his
customary Sunday speech today, but
carefully avoided reference to foreign  policy.
Lord Curzon returned to London
tonight, .brought back prematurely
through ' the threatening situation,
fie also declined to say anything
about the dispute until he had time
to study official reports.
It Is not known whether Premier
Baldwin will hasten his return from
All les Bains on account of the
crisis.
Greece . Asks    International    Probe
ATHENS, Sept. 2.—The Creek reply to the message from the Interallied council of ambassadors protesting "against the outrage of which
the Italian mission has been the
victim," was handed to the French
charge today. It proposes an International inquiry to establish responsibility for the Janlna murders, and urges that such procedure
would he preferable to a Greek in- '
qulry, which could not extend beyond   the  Greek   frontier.
The note adds that Greece la prepared to pay all reparations auch
a conference  might  consider  just.

TORONTO. Sept. 2.—Hon Charles
Stewart, minister of the Interior,
stated here today that the Dominion
government was not in any way officially connected with the expedition

aneson expedition to the polar regions when the commercial possibilities
of Wrangel Island were made known
to  the   people of  the Dominion.
The view of the Dominion cabinet
was that it was more a matter of
concern for the British parliament,

Gregory  Shows  Record  of New Park at Rossland Even
Fraser Canyon Route, Answering Advocate's Letter
Irt a letter Oo the Vancouver Province, Jn answer to one from an advocate of the FraBer canyon route
for the Interprovlnclal highway, P. W.
Gregory of Princeton sums up once
more the argument for the Hope-
Prlrtceton route. The 'Princeton road
expert   writes: i I
Editor Province,—The recent letter
of Mr, M. 8. Wade, -strongly advocating the construction of the coast
to interior road via the Fraser
canyon, compels me to fcetf apace
for* reply. He maintains the, connecting highway should possess, above
other characteristics: Historic interest, scenic interest, long open season,
low gradients—and he would have
his readers believe that the. Fraser
canyon route along possesses these
In proper measure. Historic interest
it must have, no matter 'what else,
and I presume at any price, or Mr.
Wade wlil  not  be satisfied. '   '    ■
The fact that Simon Fraser In. 1808
followed the windings of. the Fraser
river through Its rocky canyons, and
along Its dreary, monotonous miles
of fir-clad slopes and ugly rock
slides, should not weigh very heav'ly
with those upon whose shoulders
falls the responsibility of selecting
the route for the coast to Interior
link in our transprovinclal highway,
particularly so when it is remembered
that there are already two transcontinental railways threading their
way along its forbidding sides, from
which the traveler seeking scenes of
historic interest may pay homage
to the Illustrious name of the great
explorer. Why should a third artery
of travel be necessary In this narrow  and  unproductive  gorge ?
It Is most Improbable that the
Alpine engineers intrusted with the
laying out of roads and railways
through their formidable mountain
ranges exhibited any great anxiety
that their nl.te Bhould follow Hannibal's historic course, when he descended to the Italian plains wilh
his. mighty elephants and engines of
warfare. It Is unlikely one would
choose as a portion of the route
for a motor road from Princeton
to Kamloops the trail selected by the
notorious train robber, Bill Miner, and
his daring associates, when on their
historic sortie from Princeton they
descended and fell upon the Cana
dian  Pacific  "Flyer"  near  Ducks.
With all due respect to that intrepid explorer, Simon Fraser, when
he bent his footsteps westward, and
finally reached the Fraser river, he
knew practically nothing of British
Columbia. It Is recorded that he
was aware water flowed down hill,
and from certain observations he deduced the fact that the Fraser river
flowed into tha. Pacific ocean, and
he determined to follow it. He did
not choose the route for Its scenic
attractiveness, or for its directness,
or because it passed through fertile
land, or rich miner, territory. He
was a hopeful, expectant traveler
and knew no better.
Cattlemen   Used   Southern   Route
Long before the advent of th<_
C.P.n. In this province, the cattlemen of the interior drove, year after
year, large herds of cattle out to
the coast. They came from Kamloops, Nicola, Similkameen and
Okanagan. Which route did they
travel ? They selected and used a
route where pasture and water were
accessible and plentiful • every few
miles, a route that abounded in
camping spots, where fish and game
were to be had at any place. They
followed the old Dewdney trail from
Princeton to Hope, and drove their
herds into Hope over that historic
25 miles of road built by the sappers and miners, and that 25-mile
section of the trail Is not alone ln
its claim to historic Interest for
every step Into Princeton has its tale
to tell of the early fifties and seventies, when gold miners flocked into
Rock and Granite creeks.
Is there any need to consider for
an instant Mr. Wade's claim of superior scenic interest? Most people
in the province have at one time
or another passed through the. Fraser
canyon on one or other of Its two
railways, have seen and passed with
disappointment through its narrow
confines, which do not permit of the
slightest favorable impression being
conveyed to the tourist or traveler,
who is unable in Its restricted area
to gather any idea of the character  of   tho   surrounding   country.
What of the Hope-Princeton route?
The government engineer's report is
concise and to the point. It states:
"It may not be out of place to here
refer ta the scenic beauties of this
rugged route. ■ Apart from the attractiveness of the location along
the rushing creeks and rivers, and
the Bplendid forested areas of the
western half of the line, there exists
within a couple of miles of the main
pass, and to the southbound thereof,
one of the finest areas of moun-
The whole of the route Is one of
varied attractiveness to the tourist
tain scenery to be found anywhere,
and traveler and Bhould form one of
the most Inviting links of the great
project (I.e., the transprovinclal
highway) in which lt forms at present   the   largest   gap."
Heavy -Snows in North
' The question of the open season
on both routes has been dealt with
by many before. One might imagine from Mr. Wade's letter that it
never snows along the Fraser canyon,
but many of us have seen It/snow
heavily there, and experienced a subsequent thaw, when trains on both
railways have been held up for hours,
and sometimes days. 1 have before
mo extracts from The Daily Province of a few years ago: "January 15.
Trains delayed on two systems,
Heavy snow of the past few days,
followed by heavy rain, has caused
serious trouble to 'both the C.P.R.
and C.N. railways. Service on both
lines Is badly Interrupted. The Canadian Pacific grade near Haig was
washed out and no trains likely to
get through until Sunday morning.
The Canadian National railway encountered trouble at Boston Bar,
where the grade was affected similarly.'' Travelers over the C.P.B.
on this particular occasion tell that
the torrents formed by melted snow
tore huge gaps ln the railway grade,
A month later reports appeared in
the press of similar trouble Just below
Lyttoiv accompanied by photographs
of train lying wrecked In consequence   below   the   C.N.R.   track.

tion of the B.C. express along the

ROSSLAND, B.C.,' Hept. 2. — With
the completion of the Rossland-Cas-
cade highway, the Rossland board of
trade has emphasized its welcome to
the tourist by the completion of the
most modern camp In the Interior of
British Columbia,   .
The natural beauty of (he. spot selected, lent Itself, lo the additional
purpose of a children's park, and. to
this end the work was designed and
carried out i under the supervision of
William K. Esling, M.P.P.. of whose
efforts the city Is deservedly proud.
. It differs from all other camps In
that nothing has been neglected for
the comfort of the traveller, and
everything Is free. The expense of
the camp was met by subscriptions
from business men and others, numerous checks having been received from
former residents of Bossland, who
still felt an Interest In the welfare of
the historic mining camp. The location, which is but two blocks from
the business center, adds 'to the merit
of the park.
Stores, Tables and Benches.
The entrance was designed by A. E.
Wight of Rossland, and contains modern sanitary conveniences, with show-
en? for men and women. Against a
long rock bluff, which forms the
background, is a series of five terraces, on which to pitch tents, and
alongside of each Is a covered cook
shelter, of rustic design. Each of
ihc.se contains a stove, table and
bincheB. There are electric light and
cit> water with plenty of free fuel,
cut to stove length, and each shelter
has a receptacle for refuse and garbage. The city sees that the park
la cleaned each morning, and as soon
as a tourist pitches his tent, R.
Tlmms, chief of police, is on hand to
see that every need for the cemfort
of the visitor is supplied.
Maps   and   Stationery.
Near the entrance Is a little build-
hig where the traveller Is supplied
with plenty of stationery, maps and
postcards, all free, and where he may
uglster.
Through the length of the grounds
Is a creek of clear water. This creek
lty lined with trees and plants, while
a flower bed, kept in condition by
the citizens, adds to* the beauty of the
entrance. More than 50 shade trees
have been planted, and a half acre
of sod laid. There are benches* In
every shady nook of tho park, and
children and parents take advantage
of the conveniences for afternoon
lunches.
Small Lake for Kiddies.
At the far end Is a miniature lake
in which the kiddies paddle, and tn
the center of which is a constantly
playing fountain. Beyond this Is a
plunge, where the traveller may take
a morning dip, ami where men and
boys find pleasure In a swim on hot
days. The water is fresh and constantly running, and enters the little
lake  below by a  pretty  waterfall..
The whole camp is brilliantly lighted
by the city, and only the most favorable comments are registered by the
tourists.
The city council and the board of
trade named the park after Mr.
Esling," who. initiated the work and
gave his time  to its  construction.
Rupert, Mr. McHardy stated that an
outsider w£s Impressed with two
aspects, one beiryj the evidence of
bad ' management''early in the city's
career, particularly in tho matter
of the laying out of streets. 'Fourteen miles of planked streets? were
in usflf. making the cost of upkeep
high. The school problems there are
also In a serious condition, he stated.
A new school being'erected at a cost
uf $100.0(10 has* already cost IJJlO.OOd,
and  Is ,/iot  yet  cpmpltted.
"There is great .future • promise
for the city." he stated, "and In
time lt will without a doubt' make
good. Th* magnifli*fnt harbor.

in order that the. Vourist trade to

"The trip from Vancouver to Prinre

Leagues  Both' Successful
Ex-Mayor C. F. Hardy has returned from attending the Good Roads
league convention at Vancouver on
August 20, and the Union of British
Columbia municipalities sessions held
in Prince Rupert on August 21! and 23.
"The conventions were both a huge
success," stated Mr. McHardy, "a
great deal of good, sound business
being   done   by   both."

in the district. Coming out to Victoria that fall (18611 he overtook
tho late Governor Dewdney at Lytton.
where he was snowbound. They were
forced to remain at Lytton for two
days, as the snowstorm was terrible. The party consisted of Dewdney, Stevenson and three others. They
were the last men of that year to
leave Cariboo, and the snow was
nearly five feet deep at Lytton. It
took 10 days for the parly to reach
Yale, 57 miles, down tho canyon,
which they reached on December G.
Bernard's express and stage line
carried the mail in those days, 386
miles from Yale to Barkerville, taking #tt days. The only serious
troubles experienced on the journey
during the winter were always for
the first 30 miles out of Yale, where
snow fell heavily and drifted under
violent winds Into heavy drifts. The
express and stage company would
sometimes have as many as 30 men
shoveling snow to permit of, the stage
getting through.
Gradients
Finally comes the question of
gradients. The road, says Mr. Wade,
should possess low gradients. Government engineers have stated that
grades on the Hope-Princeton route
will not exceed 7 per cent and these
grades can be accomplished at reasonable cost, a matter which must
be of some surprise to anyone having
a close acquaintance with the features of that great area of unllfted
and broken country which tends to
bar the path of any road between
the coast and the Interior of thla
province.
No mention Is made by your correspondent, when eulogizing the
Fraser canyon route, of a small matter of two dozen level crossings and
what they will entail ln loss of life
and property.

nit Bill Should Be Med
In lust week's British Columbia
Gazette appears a notice that an
application will be made at the
next session ot the legislature "on
fcehalf ot the barbers of British Columbia" for an act "for the purpose
of governing and regulating the
practice of barberlng," for the licensing of barbera and for a board of
examiners "to insure the better qualification of persona following such
profession in British Columbia,"
If thla bill gets through the private bills committee the legislature
should lose no time In killing It.
The Idea of forming under a provincial statute and with all the authority and limitations of the law, a
close corporation of barbers Is absurd and against the public interest.
It would establish a bad precedent
which would very soon be followed
by those in other occupations. If
the barbers were formed into a
close corporation we would soon
have statutes "regulating and governing" the profesion ot waiting at
table, of Journalism, oj grocery clerks,
of butchers and a hundred other*.
We are being too much regulated
•and governed at vast expense and
without real public benefit already
and. ,Jnstead of cluttering up the
statutes with new laws what Is most
needed is the application of a pruning knife which would cut off some
ot the unnecessary laws which are
a source of nuisance and expense to
the public.
The Bible a la Chicago
It is possible that the new translation of the Bible made by Profesor
Goodspeed of Chicago will be useful
i to students, but If the published
excerpts are typical of the entire
translation, there is little danger that
It will replace the King James version. It may be more accurate, lt undoubtedly UBes more commonp'ace
phrases. But readers of the Bible
are less interested in precision of
translation than they are in the
terse richness which has made the
King James version one of the great
masterpieces of English. There is
more in a phrase than many liter-
allsts can see. Long use gives it a
connotation which may not be strictly In accordance with the original
text, but which lends it force and
meaning.
The phrase from the Sermon on
the Mount which la the King James
version reads, "Blessed are the meek,
for they shall Inherit the earth," Is
modernized to read "Blesed are the
peacemakers, for they will be called
God's sons." So also for "Neither
do men light a candle and put it
under a bushel, but on a candlestick.
and It glveth light unto all that tare
in the house," is written "People do
not light a lamp and put It under
a peck measure; they put It on a
stand and It gives light to every one
In the • huose." It is conceivable
that some of these new phrases are
more accurate—though even that Is
doubtful—and it is clear that some
are more modern. But the difference
ln meaning or intelligibility between
"Inherit the earth" and "portscss the
land;" or between "the children of
God** and "God's sons," is oert'-iinly
so  ^f)11  tint, rt  fails  to  justify  the
' substitution of ugly new phrases
to*, .the rl^h old words which .through
long use have acquired a particular
flavor. "When It comes to the nub-
atttutlon of such words as "lamp"
for "candle" and "peck measure" for
■"bushel" and "stand" for "candlestick,** one is struck by the absurdity
of endeavoring to "modernize" language. *Had the translator been
trilling to "go the whole hog," he
would have wrlten "electric light"
Instead of lamp, and "fixture" instead
of stand.
The new version has a further demerit Not content with would-be
up-to-date phrases, it also goes ln for
modern verbosity. A single example
Hunt rates this point. For the clear
and forceful sentence In the King
James version, "Think not that I am
come to destroy the law or the
prophets; I am not come to destroy,
but to fulfill," the Chicago profeaosr
has written, "Do you suppose that
I have come to do away with the
law or the prophets? I have come
not to do away with them but to
enforce thsm.'*
For serious and scholarly studies
of Hebrew and,Greek texts with a
view to eliminating inaccuracies of
translation there will always be approval. But with attempts to "mod-
ernlie" the language of the Bible
by substituting for the vigorous and
colorful language of the King James
version such verbose and flat phraseology as Is given in the published
extracts from the new Chicago
version there will be little sympathy.

Beef Loaf—Have your butcher put
two pounds of rump beef through his
meat chopper, with a very little fat
mixed with it. Add to this chopped
meat two well-beaten eggs, one-half
teaspoon of sage, one-half cup of dry
bread crumbs, one tablespoon of salt,
a little pepper, and butter the size of
a walnut, melted. When these Ingredients are well mixed, turn them into
a buttered bread pan, cover the pan,
and bake for one hour—possibly a
little less—in a hot oven. Five minutes before serving remove the cover
from the pan, and place two slices
of uncooked baron on top of the
loaf, to give a delicious flavor. Serve
hot  or cold.
Corn Fritters—Sift together one
pint of Hour, one-half teaspoon of
baking powder, one-half teaspoon of
sugar and one-fourth teaspoon of
salt. Stir Into these dry ingredients
three-quarters of a pint of sweet
milk and one egg, mixed together.
Then add one teaspoon of butter,
melted, agd corn grated from six
large, cooked ears (or about one
can of corn if you have not the
ears). This is an excellent way to
use   l*ft-overs   of   corn.     (The   above

I spoonful! b onto a hot, buttered grid
de or frying pun, and turn, when
done on one side—like grlddlecakes
Baconed Butterflsh—Buy two
pounds of butterflsh (there are about
three small butterfish to a pound)
and place these in a frying pan
with six slices of uncooked bacon;
rover the pan and place lt over a
moderate flame. From time to time
shake it well, to distribute the melted fat from the bacon. When the
fish are browned on the under side,
turn them over. Allow 30 minutes in
all for cooking (they should be tender at'the end of that time). JVhen
the bacon is well crisped, remove It
from the pan, place It on the plater
on which you Intend to serve the
fish, ond add six more Blices of unbooked bacon to the frying pan.
After you have once cooked butter-
fish in this way you will never again
prepare It ln any other way. Place
the last six slices on top the browned fish, to garnish. Serve very hot.
Frizzled Beef—Put one pound of
thinly sliced smoked or dried beef
into a bowl with enough boiling water to cover; let stand 15 minutes,
then drain off the water. Now put
in your frying pan two tablespoons
of butter and when melted add the
drained beef; when the pieces begin

FARMER IS HELD ON
CHARGE OF SEDITION
MOOSE JAW, Bask. — Charged with
making a seditious speech at a meeting of grain growers last*. January,
Fred Mclntyre, a farmer of the Royal
George School district, south of Caron,
Bask., was recently committed for
trial   here.    He   was   released on  ball.
Mclntyre is alleged to have made
the seditious remarks during a discussion on titles, and is charged with
having said:
"I count myself as good a man as
King George. I would not be scared
to challenge him to a foot race, to
wrestle, or to fight, although he 'Is
fed up In a box stall on choice food.
If I had my way, I would take a club
nnd stand at the border and knock
the brains out of everyone that came
Into the country with a title. I would
make no mistake about it, as I know
where to hit them."

That Lump Behind theftar
(Keglstered   ln   accordance   with   the
Copyright  Act)
When we were youngsters and
the lump behind a boy's ear seemed to be unusually targe or prominent we said that meant he was a
good fighter. I don't know how
much there is in that, 'but 1 do
know that the lump may be able
to tell' you something important
during certain illnesses. For instance ,in the case of a heavy
cold, the flu, scarlet fever ln children, and other conditions a severe tendemes over this lump is
Hlways a warning sign to you, and
to    your    physician.
You see there is a little tube running up from your throat right into
the middle, ear. This tube as you
know Is to permit air to enter, so
that the drum will have pressure
from both the inside and outside.
You've often noticed a hole In the
side of a big bass drum ln the
band, which permits air to enter
and thus keep both sides under
equal    pressure.
So If you have as sore throat
as in scarlet fever, flu or other
conditions the inflammation sometimes continues from the throat
right up into the middle ear along
this   tube.
Then the ear begins to ache and
the first thing you know the Inflammation in the middle ear bursts
right through the drum, and comes
out of the ear. ThlH usually relieves pain somewhat, and makes
things   fairly    safe.
However, sometimes the patient
will complain of pain in the lump
behind the ear. If it be a small
youngster he will put his hand on
the   lump.
The ear sometimes will seem to
stand out from the head and be a
little   lower   than    the   other   one.
Now   what   about   it?
Tell your doctor at once. He
will likely enlarge the hole ln the
drum so that the discharge will
come   out   more   freely.
Perhaps he will have the ear
specialist on hand immediately, and
a large portion of the bony lump
wiil    be    chisselled    away.
Why?
Well that** lamp"'communicates
directly with the middle ear just
as did the tube from the throat
and the inflammation has extended
Into lt also. So keep your eye and
thought on the lump, when there
Is severe earache, or any discharge
from   the   ear.

Veteran Baseball Manager
Declares Players Must Not
Break Training
CLEVELAND—A! rigid training
rule laid down by Tils Speaker, manager of the Cleveland Indians, prohibits players from smoking cigarets
or drinking anything stronger than
one-half of one per cent. The veteran manager-stiii* believes physical
fitness   offsets   minor   playing   defects.
Tho Cleveland outfield, with
Speaker In center. Surmna In right,
and Jamleson in lef», is at least on
a parity with any in tho league,
In the opinion of Speuker. ' lie regards Summa as the greatest outfielder found by a major league club
since Ty Cobb marched out of
Georgia    to    fame    in    the     baseball
pennant wars. In Jamleson he has
the "triple-threat" excellent fielder,
heavy  hitter and  Ideal   lead-off  man. i
In   the   Infield   Speaker   adrnfts   the
attacking   force   Is   not   so   great   as |
when   Stuffy   Mclnnls   was   at   first ]
and   Gardner   at   third,   but   tho   present   Initial- and   far   corner' sarkmen, .
Guisto  and   Lutzke.   are   expected   to I
offset   4n   groat   defence   what    they ]
may  lack   In  offence.    Another   valu- I
able   addition   to    the    Indian    camp I
Is   Glenn , Myatt,   former    Milwaukee- I
American    association     catcher,    who (
now    alternates   with    Steve    O'N'etlt
in   catching  and   waiting  for  a   pitch j
hitting   opportunity..
While  not  claiming  a  great" pitch- i
ing    staff.   Speaker   says    he   has   a
good   lot   of   pitchers   and   an   exceptionally    strong    force    of    substitute \
players and pinch hitters.    In the outfield   as   substitutes   he   has   Brower,
formerly  of  Wawhlngton,  who  Is also J
a   first   baseman,   and   Joe   Connolly, [
both   classy   fielders   and   heavy   hit- I
ters.        Infield     substitutes      Include 1
Gardner  ,at    third,    and    Stephenson J
at  short  or Ahind.    Five  heavy   batsmen    are    thus    available    as    pinch |
hitters.
Speaker,  "who   says   he   will   never j
be   a   bench   manager,   still   has   his I
habit   of   drawing   two   lines   in   tho

the dirt from the cleats of his shoes

USE PICTURES TO
EDUCATE FOREIGNERS
CHICAGO — Educating foreigners
by use of the motion picture Is
being adopted more and more each
day, and has served to cause deep
thought on the part of the leading educators and Immigration authorities of this country, according
to Jaroslav J. 'Zmrhal, district school
superintendent of Chicago, in a statement made to the society for visual
education   here.
"There has been a noticeable increase in the attendance at our
night classes and lectures on citizenship since motion pictures have
been available," declared Mr. Zmrhal.
"The men found the screen answering their questions In a way they
could easily understand. Those who
were working for their naturalization papers were particularly delighted with these lessons ln picture  language.|"    _
We are frequently told that man In
the early ages lived a life of simplicity and innocence—yet the first
man born killed the second.
•' Still, If all the town people moved
back to the farms the farms >asuld
J>e crowded, too.

SAYS SOME CHILDREN
REMAIN UP TOO LATE
Pastor   Urges    Parents   to   See   That
Children  Reach School in  Mornings   Fresh   for   Study
The value of education—particularly mural education—was strongly
fmphnsized yesterday ln a sermon
at the church of Mary Immaculate*
by Very Rev. J. Althoff. pastor, who.
In taking occasion to Impress parents-
with the great duty dependant upon
them tn send their children to school
n'gularly, stated that the wise parent.
In addition, saw to It that the child
was not allowed to play around until
late hours at night, thereby reach-
Imr classes npxt morning in a too
tir"d   condition   for   psoper   study.
The exercise of parental authority,
he stated, was a branch of education, and the situation in the world
today,   where   men  openly  flouted  all
utlierlty as represented by law and
government;    the   present   world-wide
haos, where nations seemed full of
hate, was due In large part to a
lack of education In Christianity-
men today were growing up forgetting that their life ln This world
was only transitory, and that the
life hereafter should be the goal,
and was the only thing really worth
while. - -      •   .

Davison Chemical again Indulged In
a pyrotechnical display, opening 114
points lower, at 51, dropping to 4H. .it
■which one sale of 6200 shares wan recorded, and then plunging to t$%,
closing at 38 for a net loss of lfi\4
points, and Just half of last Thursday's top price. An official investigation of the movements af this stock i
Is   under  way.
Professional operators, using the
suspension of anthracite mining and
Italian military action against Greece
rs excuses, began to offer* stocks down
from the opening, but the losses did
not exceed a point or so In the active

little long selling made its appearance.

"There Is no doubt In my mind that
the United Statea will eventually co-

the form of joining the, league Is a

INCREASE SILK 0UTPUJ
TOKIO. — The visit of the American si.k commission to Japan has
brought forth fruit. The object of
the commission was to <ty and inducu |
lh* Japanese to improve f'icir raw I
silk and   the  methods of  marketing  it.
Tc bring this about a new silk j
bureau has been organized by the de-1
pertment of agriculture, while the yllk !
rtelers themselves have decided to em-!
ploy every possible means to Improve '
the   quality  of  Japanese   silk.
Another suggest ion of the Amer-
[carta, the amalgamation of smaller
mills, la being carried out. The lin-J
portance of the silk tndusttry is shown !
ly the great increase In production.!
While in 1912 the value of the crop
Was llt0.000.000 yen, It reached 650,-
909,009  yen  ln   1922. i
the
i  to
the
eastern nations, the struggle between
east and west will Involve the whole
of humanity ln the most disastrous
war   the   world   haa   ever   seen.
These frank words were Bpoken by
Professor Hlshtnhuma. a Japanese,
at a recent dinner ln London of the
Japanese society. The limited area
of Japan, the professor explained,
waa a cause of great anxiety to her
statesmen. With only 16 per cent
of her territory available for agriculture, nod a population of 360 to
the square mile, Japan looked with
longing eyes to North and South
America, Canada, Siberia and Australia, where there Is so much land
available for development. Sho
wants to send her surplus population
to   those   empty   acres.

House ol Lords Fears
West Indies May
Leave the Empire
LONDON* — Fear that American
Influences may eventually affect the
relations between Kngland and the
imiish West Indies, has invaded par-
Ilment and caused some metnbors
of the house of lords to urge that
the government lose no time in
strengthening the existing tk-nda wltb
the  T.rilish  colonies.
Viscount.   Burnhani   has   urged   that
tpeclal representation at the Imperial economic conference he given
the West Indies, and that better
communication on the sea and under
lt be established at. once with that
part 0< the Empire. He points out
that communication at. the present
time is very bad, a condition that
does not obtain with any other part
of tho Empire.    Almost  all  the  news
nipplied lo the Wee)t Indian papers
comes from America, and reflects
the   American    point   of   view.

Baseball fans were treated to a
good exhibition yesterday afternoon,
when the Old-Timers and the local
fcenior nine met in an exhibition
game, the seniors winning out by
the  score of  11   to  9.
The large score does not in any
way Interpret the play, which was
fast throughout, the nine innings
being   p.ayed   in   fast   time.
Harry Pitts, well known to local
fans, who formerly hurled and played in and around the third sack
for the old Nelson nine some few
years ago, was on the mound for the
Old-Timers and sent a lot of the
seniors to the bench via the strikeout route. He was at times touched
for a few hits. Dutch Richardson
picked a high one and sent the
ball over the center field for a
homo run, thc first scored by this
route In the field this summer.
Hitting by the Old-Timers was not
slack by any means, Langill, Klrby
and Pitts cracking out some splendid   hits.
Harry Wright umpired the game.
The   teams:
Ne'son seniors—Brennan, catcher;
McDanlels, pitcher; Bush, first base;
Scanlan, second base and pitcher;
Hedt'ord, shortstop; Notman, third
base; Richardson, right field; Marquis, center field, and Parker, left
field.    .
Old-Timers—Curran, catcher; Pitts,
pitcher; Langill, first base; Passe-
creta, second base; Klrby, shortstop;
Hartwig, third base; Hufty, right
field; Ionian, center field, and Carlson,   left   field.

So far It has been a great tournament for the out-of-town competitors, practically oil of whom have
done   well.
F. V. Stuart, the Calgary contender, was, however, eliminated In the
men's open singles by V. West-
wood of Vancouver. Mr. and Mrs.
B. Townshend of Wl'low Point are
still in the doubles. Mrs. W. Thompson and Miss Beatrice West, both
of Willow Point, are to meet in the
ladies'   finals  class  today.
Trail stock keeps up—for S. O.
Blaylock and George Murray of the
smelter city, holders of the cup
for the men's doubles title, were up
to last night still undefeated.
"Veteran"   Is  Surprise
The Veterans' events brought out
some play that showed a number
of the contenders were veterans in
name only. Outstanding partlcu'arly
was the popular C. F. Pincott of
Orand Forks, who appeared on the
local courts for the first time in
several years and played a truly remarkable game, which won him a
wel'-earned ovation from the gallery. "It may be that he lacks
some of his old-time speed," stated
a tennis sharp who was a spectator, "but if he does he makes it
up In a rattling fine display of
lightning    judgment."
Pincott plays off with K. Metcalfe
of Wl'low Point at 3 o'clock today.
At the close of the events last
evening It was found that F. V.
Stuart of Calgary, who has been
'playing a fine game and has made
his way with K. Metcilfe of Grand
Forki Into the semi-finals of the
men's doubles, had sustained a
sprained ankle. As a' result he was
forced to retire, and he left for Calgary   last   night.
Good   Play   in   Doubles
The defeat of C. W. Appleyard
and W. Harrison of Westwood and
Matthewson brought forth some particularly clever play, the former winning  a   victory   by   6-4,   6-2.
P!ay\all through drew much applause, Applevard In particular showing great skill In several returns
that were regarded as being impossible. The winners won an ovation
at   the  finish.
Miniature  Whirlwind
A peculiar Incident gave the players in the men's doubles yesterday
afternoon a momentary Impression
that through the stress of the game
they were seeing things. A miniature whirlwind started in one corner of the courts and swept rapidly
straight across, sifting sand widely
as It did so. Fortunately it was
all over In a few seconds and was
not   repeated.
On   Lower   Courts
In order to keep up the time sched-
u'e. the ladies' doubles Mm! -finals
which were played off yesterday afternoon were transferred to the iower
courts.
The slmt-flnals and finals start
this   morning  at   i)   o'clock.     All   the
games   today  will  be   played  at   the

VOLLEYING
 :->-Q
CORRECT POSITION
STOPVOutY
What is the correct position
for volleying?
An9Wete<T   by
MANUEL ALONSO
Famous Spanish player, easily tho
sensation of the 1923 tennis season.
"Best European player today, possible
world champion ln 1924," says Tilden.
Defeated Tilden in Illinois state championship match ln July. Runner-up to
Tilden ln numerous 1933 matches, Including" national clay court champion-
ship.
. About six feet from the net is
the ideal position. Don't rush ln
like a mad man and stand over the
net, giving your opponent a chance
to pais or lob over you. Meet the
ball, when you volley, higher than
the net, if possible, and try always
to make your stroke finish the point.
The deeper you volley the better fn
most cases, but don't try to volley
from farther back than your own
service line, unless you are exceptionally   skilful  at   it,  as  it   is  very
difficult to do. A "half-volley" Is
used only as a defensive stroke and a
"stop-volley"—executed as a bunt
in baseball—Is a fine attacking
stroke, but if not done well, Is liable
to   lose   the   point '
(Are   these   lessons   helping   you   to

No Less
An Important part ln tht prescribing of glasses Is the spectacle mount, or frame. The
best correction In lenses possible
for you, might not give any
satisfaction If not In a frame
of correct size and sngles with
the face. It Is a delicate matter, and one which we are very
particular about. It is the
flnerse of a good examination.
Next time your spectacle frame
breaks or needs straightening,
bring It in, and let us attend
to   It.

Vein on Golden Age
Property Widens; Ore
Found Is Attractive
The vein being uncovered on the
Golden Age property at Wiley's spur,
near Hall, has reached a width of
five feet. Ed Toman and his brother,
who have -been. developing the property, arrived In the city on Friday
night with some fine samples of gold
silver   ore.
They report that gold and silver
in native form is found over the
entire width of the vein. A chunk
of the ore broken up shows quite
prominently    on    the    smaller    pieces.
Arrangements are now being made
to have a railway spur built into
the property, and it Is hoped before
long   to  commence' shipping.
