BONBON, May 9 (By Cable).—As I listened to Philip Snowden unfolding the first Socialistic budget calm and businesslike, dwelling on the Importance of maintaining the national credit. I recalled debates on budgets before the war when. In he same staccato and stabbing manner of speech, he delivered fierce thrusts | with the pitiless cold steel of his oratory at the very heart of capital. In those days he was oontonipUinus of my timid efforts at. taxing wealth. He sketched out a budget which then looked like the nightmare of a political dyspeptic- By supertax and death duties together be proposed to 'annex tlie larger shnro of the rich I man's possessions. With a B.-beapicr- ' rean leer he was fond of saying the j rich should not think of what is taken away but of what is still left them. Snowden nightmare Beillzed ' Those were the days of the shilling | income tax and sixpence supertax. Today the man of large income pays a tax of 10 shillings and sixpence in the pound, and If he were to Insure ngsinst the estate duties harely five shillings In the pound of his revenue would be left for his own needs. The Snowden dream has core* true and MUl ths affluent «wm to bs; enjoying themselves out of "what in left" of their huge incomes. What Rn infinlfe capacity man posnesses for adapting himself to all the vicissitudes that mav befall him! This is true of millionaires, but it is also true of their sworn enemies. Tbe Socialist chancellor of the ex- cheouer has quickly adapted himself fo his new environment. Mr iltOW- An had to produce a financliTT badfSt which would please poverty while st 'he same time it reassured wealth., With o i nsii inmate dexterity he achieved these two apparently irre- I e<->ncllahle aims. When he mit down the wildest Horlalists In the house ! gave him such an ovation as they : have not yet accorded to any of his colleagues, and the following m"rn- ■' ing British stocks row in thc market nfter financiers bad re-id and digested j bis budget. A truly remarkable i achievement which reflects credit on! Mr. Snowden's adaptlhllity! Clearest Bead ln Cabinet The first Socialist chancellor Is re-I puted to be the clearest mind in the1 cabinet. He is certainly the most] lurid and logical speaker on"the front\ bench, and you cannot hsve clear l sneaking without clear thinking. Mr Snowden's extraordinary precision of phrase indicates a precise mind. He has none of the ragged cloudiness which mars the prime minister's speeches. One gives you the Impression of having worked out bis sum in detail before giving the result whilst the other leaves liis auditors an impression thai he has been thin king nut bis problems ln phrases The budge speech was a model of 1 u ml nous exposition, and it raises the chancellor of the exchequer to the position of being the one unqualified sueeess of this administration But for all that the Socialist budget- Is not in the least Socialistic. There is riot a panicle or speck of Socialism in Its whole composition. It Is all designed t<> strengthen and not to undermine the existing system. Against Capital a Tear Ago Barely a year ago Mr. Snowden moved In tlie house of commons a resolution arraigning the capitalist system for its "failure adequately to utilize and organize natural resources and productive power or t" provide the necessary standard of life for vast numbers of the population, and. believing that the cause of this failure lies In private ownership and control of means of production.' he invited the house to declare "that legislative effort should be directed to gradual suppression of the capitalist system by an inilnsin.il and social order based on public ownership and democratic control of the Instruments of production and distribution." His financial proposals dot not walk "ne nt. |. in that direction. Then Is not a hint of any move toward supervision of the capitalist system. It is just the budget which the Liberal statesmen like Mr. (Bads tone, who was a profound believer in tlie existing order ,.f soclelv, would' ha*. >■ Introduced in the conviction that Ills proposals wan giving strong! a and support to (hat order. Reduction in fond taxes, |iro\i:,ioti for payment oi debt, abolition ol' taxes • on industry and promise of rigid economy have all Ihe true iHadstonian touch, and they help to rei/niielle the worker to "the capitalist system," and by tha' means Its supersession becomes less urgent. WbHst Socialist members sneer at Liberalism as an effecte sham the one success of their governmant has been scorer! proposals framed strictly In accordance with the principles and precedents of Liberal statesmanship. When they cheered their chancellor so vociferously at tbe end Of his budget speech they were applauding the triumph of Liberal traditions.

JOHNSON STOPS CHILEAN BOXER INTHE SEVENTH Referee Stops Bout to Save Game Romero Further Punishment IOWAN POUNDS BIG FELLOW WITH RIGHT Latter Scores Knockdown in Fifth; Battle Is Furious and Bloody NKW YORK, May 9.—Floyd John- non, Iowa heavyweight, knocked out Quint fa Romero of Chile In the seventh round of a 10-round match at Madison Square Garden tonight. The knockout blow came after one minute arid 47 seconds of the round. It was one of the most furious and bloody strjiERles of the season. The Chilean, blinded from streams of blood that gushed from a cut over his left eye, groped around the ring In the final round ln a plucky effort to remain on his feet. The Iowan's attack beat Romero's face into a red pulpy mash. Wild scenes followed the tennina- lioii of the bout. ,\s Referee Magnolia had apparentl;* counted up to nine, the bell sounded, Romero wan on hiH knees, preparing to rise. Simultaneously with the bell the referee waved both men to their corners. Stops in Midround Newspapermen at the arena thought Ihe Chilean had been saved by the hell, and that he would come up for the next round. * A report spread that a member of the Htate commission had ordered tin*' bout stopped, anil a technical awarded .Johnson, to save his rival from further punishment. In the first round .Johnson's virions right spun the Chilean around, and dunqwd him in a shaken heap.

SNOWDEN STEEL STOPS THRUSTS TOWARD CAPITAL (Continued from Page Onp> .Mr Simwii.'.'s budget Ih typically a Ifrlttsli pt-riiTinancc—in thia and In othtr rssyscts a« ereU, In nu respect Is It niorf true to British tradition than in [tS provision for payment of debt. It adhere** strictly to the policy of debt reduc- lon initiated by Austen Chamberlain if Ier war and subsequently pursued by Sir Robert Home and Mr, Baldwin. It followed their lead without deviation in allocating lu«t year's aur- plus exclusively to deft reduction. The figures given by the chancellor on debt reduction are very striking: Total debt reduction, both external and internal, since December, 1!U9, has been over 1110.-' tOOO.nOO, practically the amount of the national Mn at the outbreak of war. Britain Paid Heavleit The answer to theHe questions is to be found ln the very remarkable analysis of the cost of the war to the various ' belligeranta published by tbe Hankers' Trust company of New York. (The Interally debt—An Analysis of war and Postwar Public Finance, by Harvey E, Flakj.. It it > mes to the conclusion "that tin- direct money burden of the war fell heaviest on the British people." Reducing the actual cost to *WM dollars'' tt finds that the gross cost of the war, per capita, IS Britain was 624.8;*', lo France; 28(^20, to Italy 12.;,:', to Hi.. I'nited States 17IJ.91 and to (iermany 2\<2.i>l. It is interesting to unit' thai both In cash and tn "battle losses'' Ceermatiy suffered more lo-avtly than even France-. The French battle deaths were !ii31 per cent, the (ierman tM. When Britain points to the magnl- t utl-> of be-r financial contribution the answer Is given that she could better afford to pay than any of alii. Read the Advertisements THEY LIGHTEN WORK But, in this book, there Is also compulation of the cost of the war ln proportion to the national Income of the various belllgerant nations. Here also Britain SSWSS first. The Briilsh percentage is K :*2, thi' French -».b\>, the Italian 11.11, the American 15.60 and the lierman 31.68. To the direct cost of the war It Is t.iir that there should be added the expenditure' on repairing the devastation caused by the war. But, e\ e-n making full allowance for the cost of reparation. Britain is still the hem test sufferer, as tar as* the financial burden of the War Is concerned. Moreover, being the largest international trader, she- has been tlie' heaviest suffe-rer Insofar as the- effect of j the war on trade and commerce Is ceeneserne,,. Britain Taxing on War Basis The fjgures furnished tm to taxa- j tion ure also Instructive. British taxes ate easily the heaviest, They were IrapoRed during the war, and have remained without substantial . relaxation, tei this year. That Is what account a for British surpluses, Brit- \ ish reduction of debt, and restora- tion Ol British credit. Whilst continental budgets, without exception, j IttM .shpyvn he-avy deficits, covered, by borrowing and printing, the British budget has revealed substantial surpluses for four years. Whilst continental Indebtedness has increased year by year, British debt has steadily diminished, In spite of serious depie-sslon In trade, and great unemployment. This is due entirely to the heroic sacrifices made by British taxpayers of all classes. The Snowden budget, whilst remitting taxation to the extent of £34.050,000, pounds and £47.943,000 in a full year, this year provides £4,r>.000,000 towards paying off debt. The ree*ent Increase of French taxation, belated as It Is, may compaHs Ihe same result In restoring French credit—If it succeeds; that Is, If the French taxpayer does not elude payment. Poincare's Bravsst Act M. Pol ncare's imposll Ion of these taxe-s. and his foreiug them through at much hazard on the eve of the election, is the b'f'VPHt episode ln his career, and, if the tuxes are honored in collection, will do more to rehabilitate France than all the reparation expedielnts that ingenuity can devise. In spite of much truculent criticism of the abolition nf the McVmn duties, the budget Is popular. It has 8 little prese-nt for every household, rich and noor. The reduction Ii »*»*, and especially (he eut ln sugar duties, will euidear the chancellor to every housewife. In the middle of the eighteenth century, the consumption of sugar in Britain amounted to onlv nne pound per head per annum. Today It ha* reached 72 pounds, a serious item for the worried domestic minister of finance. The reduction will enable her to Invest In other necessaries. Even frlendlv critics are dmihtful as to the wisdom of having given so mu eh a wav this vear, A surplus cf £4.000.000 is an in:ii1ri-uMtc margin to meet the inevitable deficit nn thc nation's house-building bill, the cost of the promised abolition of thrift limit on old-age pensions, and It certainly leaves nothing for widows' pensions, which the Labor government, as well as the Liberals, have1 undertaken tn grant. Deficits Next Year? The re-al verdict CH the budget as a financial proposition wtll be delivered hy next year's budget. If there be a larce deficit next year—and thai se'eins Inevitable If the govern- ernment program materializes—then it tines not seem to be sound finance' to take off taxes one year in order to impose new taxes the following vear. Mr, Snowden Is relying much on trade- improvement, and en economies In public departments. In both re- snerts. It la an optimistic budget. If his anticipations are not realized. next year will probably bring an Increase in death duties and a stlf- feMiing of the supertax. His onlv alternative would be to Buapend the sinking fund, I can hardly see Mr. Bnowo-ra doing that. But an increase in taxes on wealth will not daunt him. The probabiliti-'S therefore are that the morrow of the next budKet will not see the repetition of the spectacle witnessed this year—stocks jumping for Jov over an une-xperte'd reprieve.

Gloria King Goes to Hollywood with tne idea that she can make good in the movies, but abe finds it is not so easy* CHAPTER Ml The Eleventh Hour f\ LORIA had made very few friends *-* in the film colony. Bhe was reserved and kept very much to herself and most of the extras with -whom she had come in contract thought her upstage. The truth of the matter was that Gloria was gradually becoming embittered. She had come to the conclusion that Hollywood had po place for the girl of serious intentions. Since her arrival several winners of beauty contests had arrived in Hollywood, and with financial backing were being pushed to the top. Most of the stars who had already arrived were like Catherine Charming and Vera Vamp, beautiful and showy, but with no real ability to act. However, they were in the limelight, and they had clever press representatives, and their salaries were reported to be fabulous. with the men lt was the same, and the best example of thin was Rolf Templeton. Templeton had an enormous personal following, and it waa rumored that he made $2000 a week. Gloria had been an extra in one of his pictures Just after she had ar- 1 tn Hollywood, ohance to study him while he was on rivei Hollywood, and had had a the set. He would keep a scene waiting several expensive moments for his appearance, he would insist upon taking time off to smoke a elgaret. Ann becausa he was Rolf Templeton with a tremendous fan following, he was spoiled and deferred to as if he had been an eastern potentate. The girls around Gloria had pushed and jostled in an effort to pee Templeton act. Murmured remarks drifted to her ears. "Jan't hla hair gorReous?" I don't believe he uses a thin* on it either. And his eyes! I'm right here to tell FORTY STEAMERS' you, if ht looked at me once out of those big gleamers, I'd swoon." Gloria was frankly disgusted. Couldn't thev see that his acting was ridiculous? "Why, he did -nothing but strike attitudes' and pose around like a tailor's dummy. It amused illorta. too, to see the look of fury in the evee of Templeton's leading -woman. He wasn't giving her a thing, he was taking all the closetips anl every big scene was his. All she had to do was feed him action, and wear beautiful gowns. She h-idn t a chance to act. TemDleton set the pace for movie mad Hollvwood to follo-v. He dashed around town ln a bright green racer. He invited people over to his showy white stucco palace, ind after a riot oua evening the nartv would repair to the pink marble awlminlng pool for a mldnleht dip, "Wild stories were told about those parries, nnd Gloria grew to despise Rolf Templeton for his too obvious Insincerity. The day came when Gloria was forced to break hsr Imt $10 bill. She was contemplating taking a Inh In a cafeteria in order to pay her room rent, when, wonder of wonders, she had a call to appear ns extra In the new Templeton release.

A drive for members will be started at once by the Nelson and District Automobile cluh. This decision was reached at the annual meeting which was held yesterday afternoon In the Hume hotel. The money derived from memberships will go toward the erection of signs In the district for the direction of tourists and autoists ln general, as well as for warning signs for dangerous places. A Bum of1 $75 was voted toward the Nelson Publicity committee for the Issuing of road maps, literature and stickers for tourists visiting the city and district, ln connection with the posting of road- signs throughout the district, the club proposes to place the mileage from various points on the post such for instance us, "Nelson. 10 miles." On the reverse side of the post would then be placed, for instance. "Trail, 36 miles." the idea being to serve both motorists coming and going from the city. Blackwood President C. D. Blackwood was named as president for the year, and the other officers as named were: Honorary president, Kenneth Campbell; honorary vice-president, Mayor T,. H, Choquette; vice-president, It. D. Tlarnes; secret;irv-treasurer. A. T. Walley. The president, vice-president and secretary were named to choose an advisory executive committee consisting of five members, and also an advisory committee to be made up of members in outside districts. ln order to combat the jay-walking on Raker street, which has been the cause of several accidents this year, the club will write to the city council suggesting the placing of traffic channels for pedestrians on the main Raker street corners. White lines marking out the pedestrians' territory would greatly assist ln the elimination of this danger. The matter of turnouts between Salmo and Ymir on that old portion of the road was brought up by Harold Ijakes, and the secretary was instructed to confer with William K. Ramsey, district engineer, on this matter. The polo industry and hauling of poles along the Salmo and Sheep creek roads was also discussed, and it was recommended that the speed of the trucks carrying poles be regulated and as far as possible, the schedule of frequency of these trucks, hauling along the road be also requested. This matter will also be brought before thedistrlct engineer CONSERVATIVES Will NOMINATE ON WEDNESDAY Creston Also Will Choose a Candidate for Forthcoming Election Campaign Next Wednesday will se<*> the Conservative convention at which a candidate to contest the Nelson riding In the coining elections will bo nominated.

PILLS 4 'i.sitit*- Jr\t inUKrtWINd DAMAGES IN MANKIN SUIT Judge Gives Him Eighteen Hundred Dollars;Neither Party Guilty A verdict for the plaintiff, to the amount of tl*0» was found bv Mr. Justice 1> A. MacDonald in the supreme oourt yesterday In the case of D. A. Thorpe vs. the Mankin Lumber A, Pole company. Thorpe was suing for $5894.41, made up of damages for loss of profits on thousands of feet of logs, and for damages which Included wages, equipment and installation, also loss of profit frorp 5000 feet of white pine lumber, the mill being near Hall, on the Oreat Northern, south of Nelson. In giving the verdict Mr. Justice MacDonald said he did not think either side had been guilty in the matter of the delay, and that he was prepared to hold that both had done what reasonable men would do under the circumstances. The lawyeV for the plaintiff was W. Brown, of tho firm of Brown & Paw son, Agreed to Ignore Contract C. Mankin. the first witness yesterday, told of being concerned personally ln drawing un the contract between Thorpe and "himself. He said it did not provide for any particular quantity being cut. He had thought It might he possible to get started on the work about May 14 or 15. Later he njid Thorpe talking together, hail decided that the mill could not cut as much as 20.000 a day. and spoke of drawing a new contract, then decided to make the best of It. and more or less ignore the contract. The Judge said that this evidence was not admlssable, as no attempt was being made by the witness' lawyer to have the contract set aside. Mr. O'Shea. K.C, of the firm of O'Shea & Irving, for th*e companjy, said it was a question of ambiguity in the contract. It might be taken to mean that the amount to be sawn was 7,500,000 feet if Mankin Lumher & Pole company supplied the logs for that amount, or that the amount to be sawn was 2,500.000 feet, and that Mankin was to supply the logs. Road Conditions Caused Delay Mankin said it had not been possible to get the boiler up to the mill site very early in tho year. An at tempt was made in March, and hf oAUmi of th* condition if "he toa t »» boiler was upset. _atar when V.-.o snow had gone thi boiler was taken to Clenrwatcr Spur ab»:t April ;.">, and YbciDe torn it \:r> from there »!ci yta\ \.

The company had some thin.? over 300.000 feet of lass jacked up along the flume on a skldway at this time, he said. The flume runs nearlv 14 miles above the mil', the witness tald. Ht Judged the average capacity of the mill would be somewhere about 15.000 feet. "I do not think any mill man would expect it to do 20,000 a day," he said. Mankin had had experience In running small mills, he said, of the same make as the one in question. but larger. "We always figure that if we get in 20 days a month on a mill, we are getting a good month's run." he said. There hnd been a good supply of logs through July, he said. The first shortage cjyne on August 7 or 8, through shortage of water and trouble With a sktdway. Powell's reports showed that there had been something over 600.000 feet sawn hy Thorpe He said there were ahout 300,000 logs still at the Clearwater timber limit, and that there was a little over 200,000 cut and skidded and in the pond. Under cross-examination by Mr. Brown, the wltlness said the timber limit was about four miles in length, hut that above the head of the flume there was no white pine, only hemlock and spruce. Denies Gave Pine Figure He was asked If he had told Thorpe that there would not be 2,500,000 .feet on nine on the limit. and answered in the negative. Otis Hawkins, secretary and treasurer of the lumber company, the next witness, .said tbe mill was a "pickup" one, and th.it the parts did not balance. He would consider 20 or 22 davs a month a fair average for it. The Powell match companv had reported that 633,00(1 feet of match lumher had been provided. Thorpe iiIho cut, in '•■addition to this amount. IS,000 feet for tho company. O. S. Hardy, who had a contract with Mankin to move machinery from Hall up to the mill site also gave evidence, as did J, O'Toole. who had helped him, which confirmed that already given, ahout the delav In building, and the capacity of the mill. C. R. Severns. the Ijirdo operator, told of seeing the mill in question last week. He thought that 20 days I month would be n good average for running time for the mill.

JUNIOR GIRLS DRILL DAINTILY Recent Exhibition by Mrs. Wright's Gym Class Is a Revelation A recent exhibition by Mrs. Guy Wright's Junior gymnasium class, at the Recreation club, was a huge success. It waa the first of Its kind ever held In N'elson by the junior girls, and was applauded by a large attendance. The program opened with maze marching,'which was a pretty sight, with the girls In their white middies with navy collars and bloomers, white stockings, block shoes, and ties. Calisthenics came next, and the many exercises were also done exquisitely. The tumbling particularly was an accomplishment, difficult stunts being performed bv five voung girls and Mrs. Wright, the Misses Carol Wright, Alma Smlllle, Margaret Hip- person, Florence Grant and Evelyn Wallace being the clever little tumblers. The wand, dumb-bell and cluh swinging drills were all very well done, and were very prettv to watch, the wands being decorated In the cluh's colors, which are purple nnd white and the clubs were circled with pink paper roses. The horse nnd the parallel bars were the scenes of many exercises performed on them. Several pyramids were also corrt- posed, • Several musical numbers were rendered.

Kirtawn FURNITURE SLIP-COVERS FOR SUMMER Strengthening the New Order There is pertinent truth in the statement of one of the league's most ardent supporters, Dr. Benes, in The Nineteenth Century, that "in striving after the consolidation of Europe and its individual parts, and after settling some questions left open by the war, it «.-•. . still is necessary to make use of other instruments and methods than those of the League of Nations." The foreign minister of Czechoslovakia had in mind the treaty recently signed between his country and France, which, as he rightly pointed out, offers the means of stabilizing particular conditions not yet sufficiently protected by the machinery of the league. Its special reason is the common interest between France and Czecho-Slovakia in opposing the restoration of monarchy and imperialism in central Europe —a thing which would have unfortunate consequences for both countries. In other words, it is simply a reinforcement of the existing system for preserving the political framework resting on the peace treaties. inasmuch as Czecho-Slovakia is, politically and legally speaking, a child of these treaties, she has a very special interest in seeing them maintained. Incidentally, Dr. Benes admits that his country would have liked a treaty between France and Britain. The failure to come to such an agreement was, in his opinion, partly responsible for the Franco- Czech treaty. Here again the ■ underlying principle is that an Anglo-French entente would assure stabilization in Europe by discouraging the Germans from attempting steps to undermine the Versailles agreement. It does not follow that the treaty between France and the Czechs has taken the place of a Franco-British pact. The Czech treaty affects only a limited area. But it is a force for treaty fulfilment, and so helps in maintaining stability in central Europe. Agreements supplementary to the Dawes report will have to be made, as happened in the case of the Versailles treaty and the league. Just as Dr. Benes foresees a day when the Franco-Czech treaty may be superfluous as a result of the strengthening of the league, so agreements supplementary to the Dawes plan may also gradually become obsolete. Until such a time, however, there is little left to do, as the Czech statesman indicates, but "to prepare by degrees the way for the future, which can be done by settling disputes by friendly agreements, safeguarding the new order of things in Europe by partial treaties and employing the methods of the League of Nations." Lord Grey recently expressed similar sentiments in discussing the problem of security for France. No specific arrangement, said he, within or without the league can cover every possible contingency. "It would be necessary to proceed step by step, solving the biggest difficulties first. As Carlyle said: 'Do the duty that lies nearest, and the next will already have become clearer.'" It is this problem which Ramsay MacDonald now faces in discussing the political corollaries of the Dawes plan. > A Unique Bell Lloyds underwriters have had the unusual experience of hear- init the famous Lutine bell twice in three days.

The foremost Interior decorators today are sellinsr two materials for furniture slip-covers—Belgian linen and a very expensive tirade of cretonne which can be laundered repeatedly without fading. The Belgian linen is what the majority of housewives use. It costs about 11 a yard and comes SO inches wide, lit generally has tan. dark Krety, jrreen or reddish narrow stripes alternated with a satin stripe of some soft-trned color such as buff "r pearl (tray. About 24 ya-ds of Belgian linen are reeiulrcd to make covers fur a three-piece parlor "over- stuffeel" set consisting of a large davenport and two generous-sized itrmehalrs. The fade-proof figured cretonne above mentioned costs anvwhere from H tc 19 a yard. Often It Is glar.ed. Because of Its high price it is. of course, beyond the • reach of most of us. And now that 1 have told vou what preeminent Interior decorators adviae. I am gdng to tell vou what I advise. It Is this: The purchase of inexpensive cretonne In a cool, green all-over leaf pattern which will not soil nulokly. Of course, this cheaper cretonne cannot be as successfully laundered as the $l»-a-vard grade: but it can often be used for two successive summers without being washed if It ls shaken anel aired theeroughly iifter the first season. And when the dav ceemes when It absolutely must be washed. It will still be usable even if It bits faded slightly If you declele open huylng this cheaper cretonne, be sure to choose as wide a material as possible, for hv selecting the yard-wide varletv veeu will need le'ss than if you choose the 27-ineh width. A generation ago furniture slipcovers were hound with narrow. Dlaln-colored braid on the seams. Todav all seams are Frenehed anel braid Is nrt used. This method not onlv makes a more closely fitting cover, but saves the expense of having to buv braid. "Can you tell me where to buv a pattern for furniture slip-covers?" is a ouestlon which freementlv comes In to me. No, 1 canneit. Furniture Is made in so manv styles and shnpes. nnd each housewife must make he'r own pattern bv e'utting old sheets Into sections anel pinning them rn her chair e,r davenport.

M.D, Don't Wait for Pain to Arouse You (Registered in accordance with the Copyright act.) You have read so much about the dreadful effects in the body of the poisons from the roots rf the teeth, and pyorrhea—pus—In the gums, that vou have perhaps thought that the doctors and the dentists were rnng- nifving this matter. 1'nl'ortunatelv It cannot be magnified, because next to the intestine itself, there CAH he no doubt thnt the tonsils, teeth, and gums ■cause more Infection than any other part rf the bodv. You will remember that when a poison goes down into tho stomach. and has to fight its way through the processes of digestion in the intestine and liver, thnt a good deal of the harm Is taken out cf lt. But from the roots of tMJii WMO from the gums, the harmful suhstances go directly Into the blood stream, and thus small amounts can set up serious trouble. And so. when vou go to your physician, vou will likely say. "I den't know what's the*, matter with me. but I don't feci up to the mark. I don't seem to ent rttfit sleep right, or take the proper interest In anything. I can't say I'm sick, but cer- tainlv I am not really fit. 1 am not tnvself." In the old davs. If vou could afford It. vou were advised to rest up a hit, or take a vacation. Now rne of thc first things your physician docs is to look into your, mouth. It mav be some suspicious-looking teeth, some crowns thnt have been on for vears, or possibly pyorrhea. Scmetlrnes it Is a pair of bad tonsils. Instead of sending you on a vacation he sends vou off to get an X-rnv of the teeth. The films will show up the trouble, and the removal of a tooti_pr two, and the cleaning up the gums is al once indicated. Vou know yi u are sound enough, (hat you have no organic trouble, because your Insurance examinations have revealed this. That was what puzzled you. Rut when you realize thnt with Infected roots sending their daily ouota of poison direetlv into the blood, and nNo indirectly along with the food into the stomach and Intestine, you ran see that vou are up against a stiff proposition to keep fit. Now. it mav be a lazy liver that is making vou feel tired out and dis- inicrested in jttjs but if you have I ecu in the habit of visiting the 'l-'titisl onlv when vou have a toothache, your trouble is likely in ycur mouth.

Nelson Golf and Country club directors expect to have grass greens for every one of the nine holes at the local links. These grass greens will replace the few remaining sand greens, and will further add to the attractions of the Nelson course. Many improvements have already been made this spring. The locker room has been enlarged, and plans are now under way for adding to the size of the kitchen, which has become too small for tbe requirements of the club.

Here j had i train withnul corridors, but fortunately it was not a long run to Portsmouth. Of cc urse, I saw nothing of the town; I simply passed through part of it to a ferry boat, which took me ti> the island.

I said I reached lira ding Monday evening, and this is Thursday morn- i**ig, so I have had cnly two whol** days hen- as yet. Yesterday I visited n most interesting ruin of an ancient Roman villa, not more than a couple of miles from where I am at present residing. , Relics of the Romans This ruin, which dates from before the time of Christ, had lain for ages undiscovered in a field. About ISM some relics were accidentally un- eiLrthed, and now the whole ground flcor has been uncovered, nnd one gets I good idea of what the villa must have look'd like. The floor; consist of little tiles, laid in pat lerns, of human forms and anlmnlf One of the human figures is represented with trousers on his legs. This Is most Interesting, showing as It does that the coverings of men's pedal extremities fltftt frcm long, long ago. f'olns and nails and hinges anil much broken pottery lias been fished Up and carefully arranged in glass cases. There is, a few yards from the villa, the hot bath house with tunnels into OM villa lo bring in the beat from Ihe bath house, also a well which still gives good water. The owner of tho land has built over the villa a good strong building, tc preserve the ruin from further ravnges of the weather. He has also pensioned off his old coachman and made him curator of the place, and this old caretaker is a most Interest- ii g speeinien of the old servant in his dress, manner and speech.

Fortunately we decided to try it for a while, ami started downtown, and presently the fog lifted and the day was fine, though dull. We had the pleasuro rf seeing a football match, and il was o.uite a contrast to a game in Canada or the Stales. The crowd was as quiet as a congregation in church. A good kick was received with silence, a goal gained was greeted with a sigh of relief by our side and a silent groan by those who sympathised with Ihe losers.

The mats are always of a uniform sue, 6 feet by 8, and the area of a room Is always estimated by the number of mats lt will take to cover the floor. A room is always speken of as a 10-mat room or a IP-mat room, and a Japanese will immediately know the dimensions of a foom by such a description. Tstami are two Inches thick, made of rice straw tightly pressed to- tgSjtber.-.&nd aewn with rectangular M*Eifr emA corners, and covered with t-iimr, *#tven white matting made tmrti rWlm*9- Th* floors of a Japa- * *9J-W always present a scrupu- " ' -'C^P** ar>d clean appearance, m ' thos they are a faithful mirror of th« people who live on them. Average Room Is Ten Msts Rooms are of various sizes, but in a middle-class Japanese house a 10-mat room ls the average size. but rooms much larger are not rare. Should a room be found too small for the use for which ft is required, the sliding doors—fusuma or kara- k.imi—dividing it from the next room, can easily b© removed, and thus twe rooms are thrown into one. or a long line of rooms ran easily be converted Into one big apartment should an entertainment or other function require it. The sliding ■panels are -usually beautifully adorned with paintings of birds and landscapes, and generally do not reach to the ceiling. They are six feet high, and above them usually some beautiful panels of open wcod carving, which serve as a ventilator. These are called ramma. The windows are screens of rlee paper mounted on delicate lattice work, often of the most beautiful design, which admit 'a soft, subdued light. These are called the shojl, and at night, or In wet weather, are j protected by wooden shutters called j a ma do. A Shrine The principal rocm In a Japanese! house is always of I StsTSOtyptd kind, the most striking feature being the tokonoma. This is a recess, with a raised platform of beautifully grained and polished wood. The respect with which this is treated might lead the uninitiated to think It to be of a religious nature, but its significance is entirely aesthetic The extraordinary degree to which the cult cf beauty Ms followed in Japan is strikingly illustrated by the tokonoma. Above It ls the one picture of the room, the kakenoma. a scroll picture, which ls changed ac- eordlng to the season, or in honor of some particular guest. Below, en the tokonoma, Is placed some object of art, or a flower arrangement, always following in theme tho subject of the plc'ture above. The ikebana, or flower arrangement, ls a study which has been passed down for generatiens, and it forms one of the objects of study that a Japanese lady of culture spends many years in learning. It Is believed that the art originated in India, with the worship of the Buddha imago, the arrangement of flowers being placed as an offering before the god. In Japan, where it has made a characteristic development, the art originated some 13 centuries ago with Ono-no Smoko, who had orders from Crowrj Prince Sho- ! toku-Taishl, the Constaine of Japa- j nese Buddhism, to arrange thc flow- Id before the Image ln the prince's private chapel. Cult of Flower Arrangement In the second half of the 14th century, tho art made a great advance, side by side with the development of the chc-no-yu or tea ceremony, under the fostering care of the Ashi- kaga Shoguns. In course of time many different schools sprang up. rivaling one another In popular favor. Among these schools may be noted the presence of three different principles, to one cf which each school adheres. Some schools advocate naturalism, teaching that arranged flowers should be made to look as natural as possible; some others take a pride li^. twisting and bending the stems and arranging the flowers and twigs In all sorts of fanciful ways; while yet another class are moderate, net going to the extremes of the other two. These two principles we known M shin, gyo and so, terms derived from the three styles of Chinese ideographs. Flowers arc arranged to bo viewed from the front only; but In the ca*o nf flowers to be placed on banqueting tahles. they are so arranged as to he enjoyed from different directions. As a rule, tho arranged flowers in a vase consist of three blooms or branches, so as to produce the de - sired effect of elegance and refinement. If the kakemono, or hanging scroll, is Bhcrt and broad, the flower vase should bo placed in the center of the tokonoma or alcove, while If it Is long and narrow it should be slightly to one side, the idea being that the flowers, while adorning the room, should not hide from view any part cf the scroll. It is also a rule to arrange the flowers high In tho vase, if the. scroll is short and broad, and to arrange them low If the srroll hangs down low. If the scroll contains a picture of main i ■ flow. grow in marshes or by rlvsr banks should be selected, while if the scroll greater part of his life on the tatami ; he is born on them, walks on them, sits on them, eats en them, sleeps on them, and dies on them. They are at once the floor, the table, and the bedstead, and thus play a very great part In the life ot the displays flcwering plants, flowering tree branches should be chosen for the vase. A scroll on which writing appears should be accompanied by flowers which are suitable to the the theme of the poem which ls displayed. A flight of wild duckB should he accompanied by an arrangement of rushes or other plants which are associated with the haunts of such birds. The mere beauty of the flowers themselves is superseded by the true artist in flower arrangement, and the whole thing becomes a poem In itself, a thing of beauty appealing not only to the eye but also to the fn^llect. There are few people who have studied so deeply the cult of beauty as the Japanese, and it is this simplicity and concentration that they show their aesthetic culture. . Alongside the tokonoma usually isj found a beam of natoral wood, chosen because of its especial beauty in the way of knots and grain. This is polished in its natural state and stands as a witness of natural beauty in contradistinction to the artificial aesthetic-Ism of the tokonoma and its flower arrangement. It is difficult to describe the full beauty of a Japanese room, the simplicity of the room itself, the white tatami and the soft light admitted by tho shojl, all tend to concentrate the mind on the few objects of art that are displayed- M very much in contrast to the crowded nature of tlie ordinary western dwelling, where so many objects clash, all tending to a confusion of mind which makes the observation of one particular thing almost Impossible. It is this concentration on th one essential* idea of beauty, I think, which helps to make the Japanese such wonderful craftsmen. Ono Is continually surprised by the artistry displayed in the production of even the most humble household utensil, and-it makes one almost blush with shame to think of the monstrosities of taste that are hi general amongst us west c rm rs, who pride ourselves, often very foolishly, upon our superior civilization. There are very few western rooms which contain any object of art whicii would be worthy (if consideration as an example of abstract beauty, and very few of us have cultivated the faculty of discriminating or concentration in regard to things aesthetic. Tin- hibachi is the next important thing in tlie room. This and a few cushions are the only furnishings. The hibachi is a bowl which contains the charcoal fire which heats the apartment. Hibarhl aro of many kinds. Some times it is a curious stump or j gnarled excrescence of a tree; or it may be of «tone or earthonware. or porcelain. Its shapes varies as ■ much as lis composition. It may I he round or square, or oblong. Sonietim.-H ihe hibachi fs built Into a small chest, a foot high, in one end of which there Is & set of drawers, the top of which serves aa a table. This kind, however, ls only seen in the general domestic living room of a house or inn, and never in the guest chambers of a private room. • The hibachi is filled within a ■tfew Inches of the brim with ash, which should be carefully heaped up Into a cone, the top of which ls hollowed a little. Into this depression a few embers of glowing charcoal aro placed. There is much etlquet in connection with the hibachi, and interference is ns little tolerated as would be the case with our fires. The guest who insists on poking the fire is Just as unpopular as would be the person who played about with the charcoal of the hibachi. There is no picture more attractive or more characteristic of Japan than a room with gleaning black bordered tatami and a fine old hibachi, at which a Japanese lady is sitting. Perhaps the fire has become disarranged or burned low; so with finished grace she takes the hi- bashl (the tongs, after the fashion of chopsticks) between her taper fingers, deftly clips the pieces of charcoal and arranges them into tiny pyramid. Around this she draws the ashes with the scraper until she has made a miniatun Fugi San. 8he does not do this from a superstitious belief that it will burn better because in Uu shape of the sacred mountain, as I have read elsewhere, but b cause the draft Is better thus, and to aid It still more she pierces a little hole below the lip of the tiny crater to admit tlie air. When the dainty lady has finished this to her satisfaction she rests her tiny hands on the edge of the brazier and holds out . her fingers to warm them. Although so small the hibachi soon warms the room, but in the winter the drafts which the shoji admit make the Japanese room rather uncomfortable for the westerner. Even in April we had one or two snowy days, and one cowered rather miserably around the hibachi and finally demanded more, and in spite of being surrounded wilh two or three one longed rather wistfully for a good blazing fire.

How great the benefits it has brought to them is beyond human ability to reckon. It has provided them, at a cost unequalled in motordom, with a means to speed up business, to inerease wealth, to better health, to bring friends closer and to open up every part of the whole country to every Canadian. The fine quality, strength, endurance and full equipment provided by Chevrolet cannot be purchased for so little money anywhere else. , Moreover, the owner of a Chevrolet finds a • further satisfaction in the savings effected day by day as he drives his car. No other car built can be run or maintained as cheaply as Chevrolet. Chevrolet cars are built in Canada by Canadian workmen.

Under the pictures Is the line. "These —t • <-"**n ^B Wlt_ JN^s *■ ■* / ' m _^ '*W_W_\ Ml —————WW-. y_\ ■ fcc / ^_\ I XT' ___ _ti V ' .sf_\ GOVERNOR AL. SMITH men look alike; does the resemblance end here?" Cleveland was selected as presi dential nominee by the Democratic convention of 1884, and swept the country In the subse-juent elections. Will the Democratic convention of 1924 increase the -"resemblanoe"* by selecting Senator Rn.l*ton as standi ard-hearer? This is the question political observers here have been asking—and, many of them, attempting to answer—since the circulation of the pamphlet brought the boom to the eaBt. Nine in Ten Say "Ralston" Tlie majority seem to hold the view that "thf dark horse which pastures in tlie Hoosier state" stands a very good chance of being the choice of the coirvenfion. One ap parenlly unbiased , writer declares that if you ask those who pre> tend to be in closest touch with to the choice of the Madison Square the Democratic political situation Garden gathering "nine times out of ten the answer will be, Ralston." Senator Kalston has been mentioned from time time tn connection with the Democratic nomination, but it is only recently that the Ralston boom has assumed any thing like national proportions, lt was fathered by former United States Senator Thomas Taggart, the leader of the party in Indiana, who Is a lifelong frlenM and an ardent admirer of Ralston. Tom Taggart ls one of the state leaders who wield a great power in the national convention. He was lined up with Charles F. Murphy, the Tammany boss of New York, and (Jeorgo S. Brennan, Democratic mogul of Illinois, ln a campaign to prevent William (jlbbs iMcAdoo from becoming the party's nominee. The three big leaders were hostile to McAdoo largely because when he was in the Wilson cabinet he failed to play the party game in the matter of appointments. The disclosure before the senate oil committee that McAdoo had been retained as an attorney for the Do- heny interest turned the trick for them. McAdoo is now believed to be definitely out of the running, though a faithful few of his old admirers continue to work valiantly devote to other things. Recently ho has been occupied for him, and Taggart haa time to chiefly in attempting to demonstrate to his friends Murphy and Rrennan and, incidentally, a host of lesser leaders, that Ralston is the man they require for a candidate If the party is to have a decent chance of winning the election.

Qb m IN 90 no THE NELSON D#AILY NEWS, SATURDAY MOfc'NlNG, MAY 10,1&24 understood to be rather favorable to Alfred B. Rmith, governor of New York, but there are Indication* that Ttt&jmrt hn* Won th«m over, victory with Smith at the head of the ticket would be doubtrul, despite the fact that he has unexpectedly won delegates ln several western states. Hla religion—for no Roman Catholic has ever been elected president of the United States— hla decided ""Wet" leanings, and tho rural wosl'a diwilko for New Yorkers, all -would prove ferloitu obstacles, and It seems likely that Al will be told to wait a while. He is a good Tammany man, and can be counted upon to obey the big boas. Only once has he raised a serious rumpus in the Wigwam, and that was when an attempt was mads to foist William Randolph Hearst upon him ns ft runrtin« matt. He won out, and Hearst was left in the cold upon that occasion. However, this time he is expected to do as he is told, and the chances are tha), he will be told to forget the presidential bee that buzzes in his car and accept the nomination for the governorship ohce more. Smith Good But Hasn't a Chance "Governor Smith ls a good fellow," said Taggart In a recent interview, "but Al hasn't a chance this year. When lt comes to the matter of selecting a candidate for pretident New York will not be considered this year. The Democrat! will look to the middle west, the valley of democracy, and there is only one man with the qualities that inspire conviction that he could win hands down. That man is Sf.m Raleton of Indiana. Governor Smith hasn't a chance,." The prospect of victory with Ralston heading the ticket Is being stressed by Taggart and his allies. The little pamphlet which brought the Ralston boom here from the west declare! that "Ralston is a perfect example of what politicians call an available candidate, He ls attractive, has a good record, he gets on with party leaders and hie independence is not of a kind that makes trouble." Senator Ralston is not an avowed candidate for the nomination, and, according to the reported plans of his supporters, he will not become one. He will not make a bid for delejgates in any of the .states which hold presidential preference primaries; that is, he will not go before the voters of his party seeking to have delegates instructed to support him. Taggart and his lieutenants, however, are conducting a widespread campaign to commit prospective delegates to the convention to Senator Ralston as their second choice. It ls doubtful whether the Hoosier senator will havo more than the vote of the delegation of his own state in the early ballots, but wheir the proper moment conjes Taggart hopes to be able to roll up support for his man in the convention. He Is banking on a deadlock and his ability to convince the other party leaders that in the candidature of Ralston lies their hope of carrying the country. Not Seeking Prize Ralston has repeatedly asserted his hat is not in the ring. "I have repeatedly said that I am not intending to seek the nomination for president," he declared the other day, but in spite of that he will undoubtedly listen to reason and Tom Taggart. In a recent interview he admitted that it was by no means unpleasant to hear himself spoken of in connection with the presidency. "Any man should con slder It an honor to be even men Uoned for the presidency," he said. Very little opposition to Ralston has been expressed with in the party ranks, probably because the tactful Taggart in fostering the boom has carefully avoided arou* ing the hostility of supporters of other aspirants for the nomination The chief objections that have been put forward are on the score of Ralston's age and his conserva tism. His biography in the Congressional Record states that he was born December 1, 1867. This means that if he should be elected he would be 67 years old before he took office and would be 71 before the end of his term. But Ralston is as hale and hearty as many a man of 50. He still plays a good game of baseball; ls an expert with rifle or shotgun, and puts in a lot of hunting each year. "He will be going strong 15 years from now whether he Is president or not," Taggart said in discussing the age question. The second objection, and, Incidentally, the first as well, was answered the other day when the Indiana senator made a radical speech on the tax situation with such fire and vigor as to amaze his •colleagues. Senator Ralston comes of sturdy stock. His great-grandfatehr was Scotch; on his maternal side his forebears were Scotch-Irish who threw in their lot with the American colonists. He was born in Ohio, but moved into Indiana with his parents when 8 years of age, acquired a taste for sassafras tea and became a 100 per cent Hoosier. His father was a stock farmer with a 400-acre ranch, but the panic of 1873 depleted the family fortune, and young 8am was obliged to earn his own living at an early age. And in this connection there is an incident which throws an Interesting ligtyt upon his character. Young Sam Ralston was driving | a flock of sheep along the highway when an elderly friend encountered him, bringing word that the county superintendent of schools wished him to present himself for examination for a teacher's licence. The young shepherd expressed doubts as to hie ability to pass the examination. "I think you'll get a certificate," Wild the messenger, taking stock of Ralston, who was a youth of considerable bulk and Wftlght. Licked -Hard-Soiled Big Boy* Ralston passed the examination, received hla licence and was assigned to a school But there was a little Joker In the appointment. Tha superintendent had been In dpfipnir over that school because the scholars were hard-boiled young toughs who had driven several incumbents from the ' school house. Ralston tackled this school. The horse play and attempted intimidation began on the first day, but he kept his temper and tried to win the friendship of the boys. Ha continued this pacific system for several weeks, then came to the conclusion that patience and .moral suasion were getting him nowhere. One day he went Into the woods, cut an armful of substantial sticks, returned to the school house, locked the door and put the key in hla poflket, Calling up tha biggest and toughest boy he licked him in a stand- up fight. He then licked the other ringleaders in turn, repulsed a concerted assault entailing some minor casualties, unlocked the door, had the broken furniture cleared out, and returned achool. And thereafter he had model pupils. There came a day when Ralston met a similar, though more serious, situation by similar* tactics, and hie courage and resourcefulness upon that occasion won him a reputation that may help him In the present political contest. But between these two crises In a far from uneventful career Ralston did many things. Among them were: Joined the village debating society and acquired the knack of public speaking; studied law in the old- fashioned way by reading books in a law office; hung out an attorney's sign at Lebanon, Ind.; developed a large prosperous practice; became Lebanon's leading citizen; entered state politics and occupied I several Important party offices; wae elected governor of his state. Called Out Militia - It was while he was governor that the second spectacular incident of his career occurred. In 1918, the second year of his term, a street car strike, called on the eve of a municipal election, tied up traffic in Indianapolis. The situa- ton became critical. There were disorders in the streets, cars operated by strike-breakers being attacked and A number of people Injured. The city administration, not anxious to estrange the labor vote, took no action. Then Rataton, after failing in an attempt to bring about arbitration, ordered out the National guard. The day after the arrival of the soldiers a great crowd of strikers and their sympathisers gathered on the state house lawn and d-emanded the withdrawal of the troops. The governor, despite the warnings of friends that he was placing himself In danger, walked out and met the men. In simple, straightforward language he told them he had taken an oath to defend the peace and dignity of the state, and he Intended to do It. Viol#ice proved nothing and ac- accomplished nothing, he declared, and the controversy could only be settled In the court of reason. Before long the men were cheering him. An atmosphere of amity was created by his address, and ln a short time the traffic was resumed and the warring parties arbitrated their differences Paid Off State Debt Equable, tolerant and kindly, Ralston la at the same time forceful and when aroused he Is a valiant fighter. Once he decides upon a course of action he cannot be swerved from it by threat or cajolery. He is a good mixer, talks well, and possesses a sense of humor. He has a keen mind, and is a close student of economic problems. When he waa elected governor of the state he promised to pay off the state debt, which had been a campaign issue for years. During his term of office he not only paid of the debt, but, on his retirement, he let a surplus* of *|3,- 000,000 in the treasury. He was elected to the United States senate In 1922,*defeating Albert J. Beveridge despite heavy odds. His ability to swing Indiana into the Democratic column two years ago against an experienced and brilliant adveasary when the betting was something like 90 to 1 against him helped to bring him to the attention of Democratic lenders In conection with the presidential nomination, and has proved a fine argument for Tom Taggart in his campaign to convince his party confreres that they must have Samuel Ralston tb win.

DEBASES PRODUCT Worth-While Canadian Publications Can Only Evolve With Support By IV H. SHEFFIELD Just 360 years ago, on April 23, was born, and 30 yenra ago that day there died, the greatest author who ever wrote in nny language. That day was the anniversary of the birth and the anniversary of th*' death of the im mortal William Shakespeare. Very many years ago a great writer, John Rusk in, addressed an audience in this manner: "[ \vi\nt to talk to you about books and how we rend them, and how we could or should read them." Tlie problem was very simple in his day. Many of the people in England could not read at all There were comparatively few books and . comparatively few readers. Yet the books were nearly all good books, and were written by men who had hut one aim—-not to amass sudden wealth, but to write abOUt life in good English In such a way that the work would live Throughout all the ages there lias been a distinction between those authors to whom writing is an art governed by rules, who minister to a reading public of connoisseurs educated by criticism, one the one hand, and those who use writing as a means of direct popular appeal, to whom subject matter is everything and to whom rules of form nnd style nre unimportant, on the other hnnd. Everybody Writes Now Today there are so few of the former bat the number of tbe latter is legion. Milton phrased the old ideal when be said he Sought "'" leave something so written to after- times that they would not willingly let it dies." They aspired to greatness in point of time Today the success of a writer is measured in space in the wiile extent of his temporary appeal. The modern writer aspires to possess the whole of tbe reading public for a few years rather than a "fit audience, though few." for centuries. Again, men of letters no long' form nn exclusive c; no longer a set of whom the reading i guidance in it* tAl f-tBsion of writing U as are painting nnd position by an exa Whch must first Lias everybody reads, **■ body writes. Of tht sincere. You never know what is in your soap, and flannel, but you know exactly what is ln my books, and if you aren't pleased you don't buy. My specialty ls that the public wants printed matter."' The first influence of democracy in literature has been to increase it in amount, and the second has been to diversify it. The reading public ls now too large to be guided by any one dominant interest, either in thought or form. Down to Realities Perhaps in this period there is only one paramount literary tendency; that is, the interest of the public in realities, in the facts that govern our little life here upon earth. As tho literature of today haa become directed more to the people of one generation, or even of one year; that is, has become more contemporary nnd Journalistic in its appeal, so our realism has become more penetrating and sensational. The result has been to make our writers emphasize subject matter nnd forget form. The novel is no longer a careful balance of characters in a well-on\red plot; it is an assemblage of facts and people in that accidental and promiscuous association that is characteristic of real life. Of course, realism is not a new thing; it is the impressionistic aspect of it that is new. Virgil was a realist in one sense. Tennyson describes him ns: "Thou that land. sing est wheat and wood- Tilth and vint -vat *d, hive and horse ind herd; All th. • ch; irm of all the ■ muses Oftei i flo we ril iff : in a lonely word." ste. There is i few men to iblic looks for e. The prn- not protected 4. -lust ly every- o do so. Virgil is realistic in his statement, "A cold tremor ran through the hard lioncs of the Trojans." The bones were hard because they were stiff with terror. A great artist never exhausts n theme, but with just a word or two be suggests more than a realist can depict in a page of detail. Tbe great nrtist has a deft, light touch; he pictures a blue ocean under the changing tints of sea and sky. The latter impressionist mixes up a barrel of ultramarine and lays it upon the canvas with a trowel, a wavo nt a time. Canadian Literature an Overflow The characteristics I have pointed out are not altogether American cbnrncleristics They are true in .a sense of our Canadian lite rain re as Weil. In a sense our Canadian literature is an overflow from the liter- ature of the I'nited States. We have numbers of authors, rather many than great, but our literature is not a distinctly national thing. Why? There nre many reasons which may have their effect. Il is not our small population, England had fewer people when Shakespeare and Milton rose like stars above the world. It may be that the Canadian people has not sufficiently re- [ alized itself to develop Into na- | tional consciousness. annals in carefully considered statements. In poetry we have made a promising start. C.ood poetry has been written in Canada for the last 40 years. If we have not produced a world poet we have still produced many of the minor rank, in whose works we may discern many of Hie marks of greatness. Real Facts Isabella Crawford of the 80s is the true mother of Canadian verse, but ahe died neglected, for ahe had won no audience As her career closed a new group arrived, of whom the outstanding figures are C. Q. D. Roberta and Bliss Carmen, and they for many years have made their homes in the United States though they are as pleased to be known as Canadian poets as we are to hestow the title. There are others of the group who are associated with the city of Ottawa—Wilfred Campbell, Achi- bald Lampmnn and D. C. Scott W. H. Drunimond, now 12 years dead, struck a really national note with his songs of the French-Canadian habitant. Of tlie contemporary poets I select two representative names, Robert \V. Service and Marjorle Pick- thall, the former for a knack of making poetry sell and the latter for the inverse action. It Is rather pleasing that the outstanding book of war verse was written by a Canadian. I refer to Colonel Mc-, line's splendid "In Inlander's Fields," Fiction Never Falters Fiction is the literary form that seems best able to take care of its own in these hurrying days, and it is astonishing how many really worthless and execrable novels seem to find a ready publication and a market nowadays.

IB than her life and blstO in So, nowadays, many writers who cannot write turn out volumes of hastily written mutter for a public that is not critical. Headers now ask merely if a bonk has a good theory, is it exciting, and, above all, is it novel and unusual. Writers do not publish ntily what they think is goml or what ought to be good. Their -slogan seems to be, "Give the public what it wants." i What the Public Wants In his play, "What the Public j Wants." Arnold IlennoM makes one of his characters express this point of view in the following words: "I've only got one principle, give the public what it wants. Don't give the public u hat you th.nk it ought to want or what you think ia good for it Give it what it actually does want. I argue like this: Suppose you went mlo a tobacconist's nnd asked for a packet of cigarets, and the tobacconist told you that cigarets are had for you and that he could sell you only a pipe and tobacco, what would you say?
