"It cut across the sternal end of the fourth rib, cutting clear through the eartflape end of the rib. The rut went through into the sac containing the heart, and the examination showed that the incision had cut deeplv into the heart itself.

Up to June 6 the total' of visitors : was 1,519,614, and today the figures for Honolulu and Victoria became available. At the Hawaiian port the ships were inspected by 47,- 175 people, and at Victoria by 52,- 006, so that the total up to reaching Vancouver on June 25 was 1,618,- ff»6. More than 5000 people a day have been going over the ships here so far, and Sunday and Dominion day exceeded this- estimate. ■Two thousand of the city's chil- dren were guests on H. M< S.

ADMIRAL GAV NO ADVICE POL Talked as a Sailor in Answer to a Question; the Prairie Farmer VANCOUVER, July 2.—When the attention of Vice-Admiral Sir Frederick Field, now visiting here, was drawn today to questions asked in the house of commons yesterday criticizing a statement purported to have been made recently in Victoria by the commander of the British special service squadron to the effect that Canada should equip four cruisers —two for- - service on . the Atlantic and two for service on the Pacific!"* Admiral Field categorically denied that he had made any such observation or made specific reference as to what Canadian naval policy should be. What Admiral Field ' did say in Victoria was in reply to a direct question asked him in the course of an interview. Question and Answer '^yvhat do you think Canada should have InVthe way of a navy?" Admiral Field was asked. "I can't answer a question like that," he said. "I am not here to dictate to Canada or to offer gratuitous advice on matters of policy. All I can do in reply to such a question is to lay the plain facts before you as a sailor sees them and leave Canada to judge. "I will, put it to you. in this way. tt£3y were a Canadian former depending for his living on overseas trade, or the head of a big Canadian commercial concern to whom foreign trade meant anything, I think I should be anxious to see that my trade routes would be adequately protected in time of war. As to what naval force such protection might entail it seems to me that two cruisers on this coast would be found invaluable should occasion arise. They would afford protection to the farmers' grain or the manufacturers' products part way to their markets to a point where other ships of the British navy could pick them up*" Quebec Delegation for Bonne Entente With Saskatchewan REGINA, July 2.—Ninety strong, a delegation of clergy and laity from Quebec spent four hours in the city today in the interests of the creation of a "bonne entente," similar to that set up between their province and the province of Ontario.

The vote came after an all-day debate, in which the support of the report, and of the idea of a federal reserve bank, came chiefly from the agrarian members. Of the Conservatives, only Leon Ladner.V-'South Vancouver, and W. F. MacLean, South York, supported the report. These, with J. L. Stanzell, East Elgin, were the only Conservatives to vote for the report when division was taken. All the Liberals, and about half a doaen Progressives, including J. Fred Johnston, chief Progressive whip, voted against. Many were the arguments heard, both for and against. It was argued that establishment of federal reserve banks in the United States had been beneficial. On the other hand, and this view was put forward by Hon. J. A. Robb, acting minister of finance, it was doubted if further study of the central reserve system by the banking cpmmittee this year would be useful. E. J. Garland, Bow River, charged that banks had grossly discriminated against the western farmer in interest charges. Girls Won't Pick Berries With the Sailors Around VANCOUVER, July 2.—The fleet squadron has flayed havoc with the berry picking, at the busiest season. The girls would not leave the city.

INDIAN TRIBE IN STARVING STATE Trapper Says Vancouver Denial Worthless; Ten Years Since a yisit EDMONTON, July 2.—Substantiation of reports recently received here that the Siccani Indians in the Findlay river valley, northern British Columbia, are starving and in a deplorable condition because of the unchecked ravages of disease, was given here today. Angus Sherwood, a fur trader of Findlay Forks, upon his. arrival here from the north, said the information given by Henry Stege of Fort Graham, concerning the condition of the tribe was correct. ;-*fiP Blinded by Disease "The condition of this tribe, half blind, and existing In a stage of semi-starvation, is a national disgrace," Mr. Sherwood said. Referring to a denial of Mr. Stege's information, by the Indian agent at Vancouver, recently, Mr. Sherwood said it is impossible for the Indian department to have accurate knowledge of the condition of the Indians, as they have been visT ited by a government agent only once since 1914. OTTAWA July 2. (By Canadian Press)—Enlargement of the scope of the commons committee on banking amd oM^inerce to permit the discussion of "some type of central federal reserve bank in Canada," was asked in the sixth report of the committee, the adoption of which was asked for when the house met this afternoon. The chairman of the committee, Thomas Vien, Liberal, Lotbiniere, declared that if the object of the dis- cjjspion was to form immediately a central reserve bank, he thought such a move was undesirable. He gave a number of reasons which he thought the system as maintained in the United States would not be suitable to the Canadian system of banking. Unsettling banking conditions were by no means peculiar to any one section of Canada, Mr. Vien said. The same economic difficulties which confronted the western farmer, also faced all farmers all over the United States, where a federal reserve bank was in operation. He pointed out that business organizations other than backs' had suffered because of the shrinkage of financial credit, which he regarded as an aftermath of the war. Shaw Wants Better System J. T. Shaw, Independent, 'galgary West, declared that the request was »Blmply to consider and study the system, and not adopt it. Mr. Shaw said it was the duty of parliament to furnish adequate credit facilities for the country, and it was necessary that a betted system of rediscounting should be found. He approved of Hon. J. A. Robb's resolution to .provide an inspector- general of banks. It would convert the finance department from "an undertaking institution for banks, into a hospital clinic, where they might be treated for their ills." The proponents of the system did not seek a revolution of the present banking system, but rather an evolu- tion. It was necessary also to restore the confidence of the public in the. banking institutions. Robb Says Protection Ample Hon. -J. A. Robb said this question had been pretty well threshed out last year. There was ample information available on the subject, and further research this session by the banking committee would be useless. Answering Mr. Shaw's reference to the necessity for a better system of rediscounting, Mr. Robb thought the provisions of the Finance act afforded Canadians as much protection as the federal reserve afforded Americans. He would vote against the report for' three reasons. L.-. J. Ladner, Conservative, South Vancouver, urged that a principle was involved. Parliament was either granting or denying to the- banking (Continued on page 2) ft 'You Will Find My Body in the Hill; Notebook Conveys BIG RIVER, Sask., July 2.— Earl Alcock, a resident of Big1 River for several years, is reported to have committed suicide at his camp about 25 miles southwest of here.

He was 89 years old. Manitoba Swelters in the Nineties; Alberta Cools a Little WINNIPEG, July 2.—Manitoba sweltered today in the ..r-jyarmest weather recorded in the province this summer. The mercury in Winnipeg reached a high mark of 90 degrees in the shade, which, however, is several degrees lower than other western points. A -man believed to be William Green of St. James, a suburb of Winnipeg, was stricken by the heat today while riding a bicycle on Portage avenue. He died before reaching the hospital. • Edmonton and Calgary report a slight drop in the temperature from the respective high marks of 90 and. 91 registered yesterday. ;, S&rmers throughout the west are satisfied with the weather conditions, the general belief prevailing that the rise in temperature will materially aid the crops towards the ripening stage, but rain is needed in many districts. The Dominion weather service bureau forecasts that it will get still warmer before the mercurv recedes. Bring Pressure on Meighen to Release Stevens or Tolmie ':> VANCOUVER, July 2.—A drive is being made on Rt. Hon. Arthur Meighen, Dominion Conservative leader, to have either Hon. S. F.

Negotiations are undelr way. -«. CHRISTIANIA, July 2.—The Norwegian capital is t to revert to Oslo, its ancient name. Prince Matsukata, one of the few remaining Japanese genro or elder statesmen, was the founder of Japanese finance. He was a member of the ancient feudal clan of Satsuma, from whose descendants spring the greater number of officers of the Japanese navy. He was -born in February, 1835. He served under Prince Shtmazu, the feudal lord of Satsuma, and fought in the Japanesjf (- civil war of restoration. Governor Under Empire When the imperial government returned to power, taking the place of the Shoguns, lie entered the government service as a prefectural governor, and later became attached £o the department of finance under the then minister, Count Shigenobu. Okuma. With Count Okuma he laid the foundation for a stable state finance, which was in chaotic condition on account of the feudal system of administration. A notable achieve- m ent of Matsukata was the organization of a land tax. In 1879 he was dispatched to Frances as vice-p .-esident of the Japanese section of the Paris exposition. On his return he was appointed home minister, and contributed to national progress by reorganizing the post and telegraph system of the empire. In the cabinet organization of 1881 he was made minister of finance, with the additional post of councillor of state. During the following 10 years he remained in the post despite frequent cabinet charges. One of his great steps in strengthening national finances was the organization of the Bank of Japan, and of a stable currency svstem. He brought about the redemption of bonds issued by the state of feudal lords in payment of immense tracts of lands which they held in or hear the big cities. He also established a series of national banks. Redeemed Feudal Bonds Historical, also, was his work In readjusting the paper currency. Paper money had fallen below par in consequence of excessive issue during the civil war, and Matsukata brought about a restoration of its value. A steady money market facilitated commercial and industrial development. It was during this period that many enterprises, notably railways, spinning and other manufacturing industries sprang up and prospered. Meanwhile the country's foregin commerce made a marked progress. It was Matsukata who opened Japanese legations at New York, London and Lyons, the largest markets for Japanese exports at the time. He inaugurated the system of foreign exchange as a/jUmeans of encouraging Japan's exports, and to absorb specie from abroad in view of the scare production of gold and silver in Japan. The policy proved a success. The government was able to accummulate about 43 ^million yen specie in the treasury at the end of 1885. Set up Good Standard Matsukata's second ministry in 1896 to 1897 again emphasized his right to be called the founder of Japanese finance, for it was then that he established a system of gold standard for the empire. He was finance minister in the succeeding Yamagata cabinet, and in 1902 traveled extensively through the United States and Europe. During the Russo- Japanese war he was made a marquis for meritorious service, and some years later was appointed lord keeper of the privy seal. In 19 22 he retired from the latter office, and was elevated to the peerage, taking the title of Prince Matsukata. Prince Matsukata was the head of a numerous family. It is generally believed that his children and grandchildren numbered between 60 and 80. Several of his sons are .lead-, ing figures in the Japanese business. world. Governor Is Sent to a Felon's Cell WARREN T. McCRAY Gentleman-farmer, and internationally known breeder cMW*' York, July 2.—William Gibbs McAdBa ran to a new high mark in tonigwrs' balloting in the Democratic national convention. He passed the mtieffl- sought goal of 500 votes, by dint «|f much frantic work and persuaglgB and maneuvering on the part of his floor managers, who declared they had not finished their work yet. Running close to the 46 and M4r ballot record of the Baltimore ;a«d San Francisco conventions, the Ngis' York exhibition gave promise of S&*»4 ting- a new mark. McAdoo hit his high mark so far In the 40th ballot, when he polled 505% votes. Smith at that time had dronned a little below his hieb level, $$$%, . made on previous ballots. At the '"lose of the 30th ballot last nietit WcAdco had stood at 415% votes. Thus he srained nearly 100 In today's balloting-, and the votes he got were taken principally from John W.

THIRD DAY OF B ALLOW SEES MADOO SWING (Continued from Page One) game which would force all the Smith votes out' before they brought out their own full strength. On the surface the situation, when ^the_convention adjourned tonight, had not reached the stage for final dealing between the leaders. It was obvious that the McAdoo strength and the Smith strength had reached such proportions that the contest was not going to be decided in open football play, and it was mere certain than evejr that each side "had a veto on the Other. The deadlock, therefore, was becoming tighter. Smith "Yet to Start" The race for the nomination was described by Franklin B. Roosevelt, manager of the Smith candidacy, when the convention adjourned tonight, inthe following statement: "From eur standpoint, only the obvious "developments have taken place. We have conserved our strength. The McAdoo forces have extended theirs. They have now had 42 chances to win, and have not come nearer than 40-some votes to a majority. It is obvious they cannot obtain the necessary twc-±hirds, and it is doubtful if ever they can obtain a majority." The Smith men declared they had declined to permit any increase in their total tonight beyond the 320 points.

Ruling Under Bryan Attack Still reeling under the effects of the bombardment and counter-attack which swept the Democratic national convention late this afternoon, when William Jennings Bryan took the platform for William McAdoo, the convention assembled at 8 o'clock tonight for the thirty-ninth ballot. The effect of Bryan's »ove, and the storm which accompanied it, was the sole topic of discussion among the leaders when the convention assembled. Who had been benefited, and who had been hurt, were the questions. There was agreement on all sides that if anything had been necessary to solidify the Smith people it was Bryan's reference to the necessity for a candidate whose position was right '.'on the liquor, question." Senator Walsh o? Montana, a declared supporter of McAdoo, had given way in the chair for the night session to Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, a declared supporter of Smith, so Khat the way may be cleared of any embarrassments for clearing the galleries of Smith rooters if they became unruly. Slowly the record of ballots was climbing toward the records made at Baltimore, and San Francisco, where it took 4« and 44, respectively, to find a nominee. The thirty-ninth ballot was as follows: McAdoo 499/ ■ Smith 320%., Davis of West "Virginia 71, Underwood 38%, Cox 55, Glass 25, Ralston 32, Robinson 23, Ritchie 18%, Davis of Kansas 3, Walsh 1, Saulsbury 6, Owens 4, Jackson 1. Not voting, %. Total, 1097%. McAdoo gained 55, Smith lost half a vote, and Davis of West Virginia lost 35. McAdoo Passes Five Hundred On the fortieth ballot they stood: McAdoo f05%, Smith 317%, Davis of West Virginia 70%, Underwood 39%, Cox 55, Glass 24, Ralston 31, Robinson 24, Ritchie 17, Davis of Kansas 3, Saulsbury 6, Owen 4. Absent, %. Total, 1097%. The passing of the 500-mark for McAdoo was attained in a great drive toward getting a majority, with rumors of a fight on the two-thirds rule in the offing. Missouri and Oklahoma had been induced to come to the McAdoo column for a few ballots at least, to see what McAdoo floor managers could do with the advantage of their moral support. There was quite a howling contest between the Smith people in the galleries and the McAdoo people on the floor. The forty-first ballot resulted: McAdoo, 504 9-10; Smith, 317 6-10; Davis of West Virginia, 70; Underwood, 39%; Cox, 55; Glass, 24; Ralston, 30; Robinson, 3,4; Ritchie, 17%; Davis, Kansas, 3; Saulsbury, 6; Owen, 4; Cummings, 1; Spellacy, 1; not voting %.

Unless some steps were taken to provide' a board which could consult in all food will with the government and tlte bankers on the best way to administer the national banks, Canada would be faced within 10 years with a very regrettable situation. H. E. Spencer, Progressive, Battle River, supported the motion. MacLean for Government System W. F. MacLean, Conservative, South York said he would like to se§ the banks prosper, but they must not lose sight of the fact that the underlying principle should be the credit of the nation before anything else. He stated that banking In a number of other countries had evolved into a function' of the state, and suggested that at some future date it might be necessary to apply to Canadian banks a somewhat sttnilar process as that which resulted In the formation of the Canadian National railway system. Canada should create a national treasury with gold reserves and note issu.es under an expert controller. Mr. MacLiean predicted further mergers of Canadian banks In the future. He believed the time had come to consider seriously the regulation of the bank$ig system. G. G. Coote, Progressive, MacDeod, supported the report. Mr. Coote thought the government should issue notes at various points in the Dominion which would be available for business. This could be done through the medium of a central bank. He also said that the logical way of safeguarding depositors was to improve the facilities of the post office savings bank. He advocated the establishment of a permanent board for the administration of the Finance act. -w ■ ■ . SASKATOON, Sask., July 2.—Andre Lyons, North Battlejford, died here this afternoon as the result of injuries received in an automobile accident Tuesday. Earl of Derby Says' They Have Grown up; Time to Cooperate SEEK AN EMPIRE SELF-CONTAINED Thomas Will Invite Oppositions as Well as Govern- ii&l ments in Future LONDON, July 2 (By Canadian Press Cable).—The Earl of Derby presided at a banquet here tonight given in connection with the con- press of the Empire Chambers of Commerce. Many men distinguished in political life were present, including many representatives from the overseas dominions. The Earl of Derby, in proposing the health of the British ministers, deeply regretted the relations in which the dominions were involved in homeland political controversy.. Empire affairs should be taken out of these realms, he said. "We have reached a critical stage in our history," he declared. "Our relations with the dominions are being compared with the relations of 'a father and his children. The latter, ■when young, have been reprimanded, sometimes smacked; but the time comes when they can be no longer reprimanded but only advised." He said that moment had now arrived. The father who made his son his greatest friend and the son who made the greatest pals of his parents were most likely to secure the greatest cooperation and success. These were the relations he desired to see with the dominions. "We must let our children lead their own lives, carving out their own futures; but advice could be given." Should Conform, in Policy The dominions, continued Lord Derby, were great growing children whose policies ought to conform with that of a united family. Britain, for the moment, had decided to be a free trade country; but he felt sure that where, for purposes of revenue, any duty was imposed, it was the duty of the mother country and the dominions to give preference to their own' kith and kin. It should be remembered the Empire could be a self-contained nation, and everything should be done to facilitate th&t end. Lord Derby regretted that the Imperial conference resolutions had not been ratified because ratification would have been a graceful and grateful recognition of what the dominions had been doing for the motherland i He feared the nonratification might destroy confidence. He was convinced that the Empire to which he. was proud to belong had a great future, but foresight and tact was required in developing it. J. H. Thomas, colonial secretary, in replying, said that a majority of those throughout the Empire who had attended the last Imperial conference were already out of office but still interested in Empire affairs. The clear definite moral to be drawn was that in questions so vital and far-reaching the time had arrived when no party should be known in public affairs. He was going to take the risk in future of inviting to Imperial conferences not only members of the governments of the day but leaders of responsible oppositions, thus insuring a continuity of policy. The government was taking the necessary steps and exploring the whole situation with a view of avoiding difficulties in the future. ■ Home for Positive Policy Sir Robert Home, Conservative, iGlaSgow, said that if the suggestions of the dominions were to be rejected something positive must be put in their place. It was impossible to go on drifting and leave the dominions to- the cajolery of outside nations.

CARTER, D.P.A. i Nalson THE NELSON DAILY NEWS, THURSDAY MORNING, JULY 3,1924 | :Page- Three ~^i MOVIE MAD By HAZEL DEYO BATCHTCLOR Copyright, 1924, by Public Ledger Company. Gloria King comes to Hollywood "with the idea of making good in the movies. She becomes hardened by the life, and marries, Rolf Tem- l-'Mttton, the great screen star, a man she desplftes, but one who can further her career./ Later she leaves him, and it is then that , she. makes good through talent /alone. By this time, however, she has become spoiled and plunges into a life of false gayety. Just as she makes plans for regaining her freedom, Rolf is seized with pneumonia. In his delirium he raves- of his love for her, and Gloria searching her heart, discovers that she, too, cares. The crisis passed, however, Rolf remembers nothing of what he has said, and Gloria returns to her own bungalow without letting him know that she has been with him during his illness. Vera Vamp, believing that things are breaking: up between Rolf and Gloria, decides to try to vamp him for herself. CHAPTER XLIX. V'era's Mistake A LONE with Rolf after the others ±\. had gone, Vera drifted over to a seat nearer him. He watched her lazily as she fitted a cigarette into a long holder, and then leaned forward to light it for her, but she was too' quick for him. "Oh, no, Rolf, you are not to do anything like that—yet. We must spoil you for a while until you're really yourself." "I'mygettlftg tired of being spoiled. You have no idea how tyrannical every one is. And the things they make me eat. It's like being on a steamship, and having food six times a day." Vera inhaled deeply, expelling the smoke in a fragrant cloud. "Gloria doesn't spoil you any too much, does she ?" Watching him closely, she saw his lips tighten, and she hurried on without giving him time to answer. "Everyone thinks Gloria has behaved disgracefully. The truth of the matter is, she's spoiled, she thinks it no one but herself. Why isn't she lere with you? Why did she rush lome just as soon as you had passed he crisis? It certainly looks as if he only came in the first place so as.to keep people from talking." :JiU»lf sat up suddenly. "What was that you said?" His voice was sharp. "What do you mean about Gloria's leaving as soon as the crisis was past? Do you mean she was here during my illness," "Why, yes." Vera answered before she had had time to think, and then a moment later, she saw her mistake. She had blundered sadly, and yet how absurd to think that hi didn't know. How had it happened, and why hadn't she been more careful? "Gloria was here, actually here In this house?" "Yes, of course, hut surely you must have known." Vera's voice was sullen. She had no idea how to extricate herself from this difficult position, and there was something about Rolf's attitude that puzzled her. Could It be that he cared for Gloria? Was that it? Rolf, the cynical Rolf, who could have any woman he wanted, romantically in love with a woman who cared nothing for him! The idea was ridiculous. "I didn't know." Rolf was speaking quickly. "But why wasn't I told-?JSfl was the fever, of course, and the fact that I was delirious most of the tiitt«?.-> But why didn't Townsend say something about It? I can't understand it at all." "But the fact remains that she left as soon as she decently could," in-; terposed Vera. "Good heavens, Rolf, Where's your pride, Gloria's cold and selfish. She thinks of nothing but herself, she hasn't it in her to care for any one." Vera's slim white fingers wefe on Rolf's arm, her warm vivid face was close to his. She was trying desperately to regain the ground she had lost, but Rolf seemed entirely unaware of her propinquity. "Gloria was here." He kept repeating under his breath. "Then I didn't dream it after all. She was here, she held my hand, she kissed me." The words were not spoken audibly. Vera could hear only a confused mumbling, and her grasp of his arm tightened. "Rolf, what are you saying?" Her voice had a petulant note. It irritated her to feel him so far away from her. And then suddenly the scene was interrupted by the cool, serene voice of Miss Mitchell. Vera started and drew back as the nurse approached. "Mr. Templeton, I'm afraid you must come in now. It's getting damp out here, and you must have your supper. I'm sorry," she said turning to Vera. "But you see, Mr. Temple- ton is. still somewhat of an invalid. He isn't strong enough to stand too much excitement." • CITY WAT SUPPLY DROP COOPL Nelson Water Users Asked to Conserve Supply by Eliminating All Waste Sprinklers running fujjj. force and hoses playing, in addition to taps, lowered the level of the water in the reservoir two feet on Dominion day, and none of this depletion was made up during the night following, in spite of the fact that both the Cottonwood and Anderson creek intakes are taking in all the water their capacity*- permits. While no report was available on the further depletion that must have occurred yesterday, it must have been considerable. "This points to enormous waste of water somewhere," said Alderman Ross Fleming, chairman of the fire, water and light committee last night, in giving the foregoing facts, "It means that sprinklers, hoses, and taps were going all night. Normally, the depletion from the extra demand made by a hot day is made up during the night. "We appeal to the citizens to stop IthjSv inordinate waste,'$voluntarily. The serious position the town would be in. t&. a fire occurred, with the water supply depleted, can easily be realized. "If the citizens do not respond to this appeal immediately by effectively conserving water, the step of clapping on restrictions will have to be taken."

Macleod Jubilee Costs Cowboy's Life; Famous Racer Drops Dead MACLEOD, Alta., July 2.—Kicked in the head by Death's Head, an outlaw broncho, two minutes after'^h'ei had come whooping out -of the chutes, Charlie King, a Lethbridge cowboy, was probably fatally injured at the rodeo here this afternoon. King lost h,is balance when the horse sunfished on leaving the chute, arid although he rode for four jumps with his head practically under the horse's belly, he was finally thrown. When picked up, blood was literally pouring out of his ears and mouth, and medical men who were rushed to the center field announced that the base of his skull had been fractured. Cowboys Get Burned Hands Two other cowboys, Walter Armstrong, Calgary, and Tex Dawson of Montana, received badly burned hands when they roped two extra husky- locking calves around the hind legs. The calves started to run after the cowboys had dismounted, and the lariats burned deep into their hands. Ten minutes after King had been . carried off the field, Roxie, a thoroughbred race horse, dropped dead after finishing second in the Macleod Jubilee stakes. Roxie was 14 years old, and has won thousands of dollars' worth of stake money for his Indian owner.

Following a discussion of questions affecting labor this morning, a program was adopted which included the building up of a political party, participation in the social, industrial, and business enterprise of labor, participation in the . cooperation of workers, and efforts toward greater international cooperation between labor and producing groups in the present struggle. It was the consensus of opinion that joint activities between labor and the social workers should be undertaken to get employer and employee to a better understanding, and an adjustment that would give labor a living wage and hours and other conditions that would trend to lift the present disatisfaction of the masses. am YANKEE FLIERS SEEK UMBALLA j LONDON, July 2.—The United.

F*°™ the information at hand, however, this vaccine evidently is not the long-waited remedy for tuberculosis, for it offers no help to those already affected by the scourge in even the slightest degree. As next to everybody, if carefully enough examined, would show evidence of having at some time been to some degree infected by this most widely and constantly distributed enemy of human- Kind, the use of the Calmette vaccine apparently can be effective only in the case of young babies; and, judging-from the experiments on young calves, the immunity is for only a year, and then must be restored by another administration. ^ It seems unlikely that in families reasonably instructed in hygiene the .danger or the fear of tuberculosis ever will be sufficiently great to require or even to warrant precautionary treatment of that kind. It is natural, therefore, that several Canadian specialists, when asked for an opinion of Professor Calmette's discovery, while crediting him with much knowledge, confessed their inability to see just what practical value for them his vaccine would have. They did not claim that this judgment was final or conclusive, however; and it is not to be supposed that the professor, and colleagues best informed as to the nature of his work^S would ascribe to it the importance they do if his vaccine were not of value. Its field may be like that of the anti-typhoid serum—excellent for those who, like soldiers going to war, are sure to be exposed to infection, but needless for those who are in no such danger and can take other precautions.

To Can Corn—Remove husks and silk from freshly picked corn (choose tender, juicy corn which has not yet reached the starchy stage) and put the cobs into a cheesecloth bag; lower the bag into boiling water from one to three minutes (if very young ears, one minute will do, otherwise two or three) then remove from boiling water and plunge the bag into cold water for an instant, only. Now cut corn from the cob by first cutting just the tips of the kernels off, then removing lower part of kernels by a second cutting; this method gives a creamy consistency which is absent when the kernel is cut close to the cob with only one cutting. Have hot sterilized glass jars ready. Fill them with the corn to within one inefe'of jafe^t'op, add one and one- half teaspoons of salt and sugar (mixed together) them also add boiling water to within one-half inch of jar-lop. Slip a wooden paddle, or a piece of clean bamboo, down InSlde the jaJRrnear the glass, to help the boiling water to feet to the bottom of the jar and also to remove air bubbles, then put on new rubber, sterilized glass cap, put up^'top wire (do not press down side wire) and stand the jar on a wire rack or tbjekiy folded cloth in your wash- boiler canner in boiling water to cover- jar. Let water boil around jar for one hour, then remove, press down side wire, and let stand in ordinary room temperature overnight. Second day—. Release side wire and boil jar in the canner exactly as on first day, removing and completely sealing at end of hour, and again letting stand overnight. Third day—Release side wire, again boil the jar one "hour in canner, but this time label and store after completely sealing and cooling. This method is safer than the one period cold pack method, for corn. Tomorrow—Hints and Recipes From Reader Friends.

Both Canadian and European Scum in Need of Attention To the Editor of The Daily News: Sir—Will you kindly allow :me space in your valuable paper for the few lines I will write? Some time ago I saw in The Daily News a criticism written by a gentleman from South Slocan against the foreigners. I would have nothing to say against this criticism if «he hadn't used the high-toned words such as "European scums." Well, I think he forgot that his ancestors came as well from Europe, but that doesn't worry me; only why don't the foreigners answer these •critfoisms? I have been trying to see- If anyone has anything to say, realizing that such a great number are of the foreign element and live in this country. I was trying to find the reason why no one challenged the words, "European scums." I saw a lady from Appledale use biblical words to 'defend the foreign element but I am not satisfied that the English people should defertd the foreigners.. A loyal foreigner to this and as a desirable citizen should defend, himself. Well, I have tried to find the reason and have succeeded In finding part of the reason. One old man says to me, "Me can speak nor write no good English." Another fellow says, "Don't want to write to paper because I might lose my job." Another one says, "Oh, me no care; only want to make a few dollars and go back to my country.f If the South Slocan gentleman only realized that the three western provinces^are settled of 50 per cent ' of the- foreign element and of different denominations, and- probably their biggest fault is that tftgy do the hardest work in the country! Is it right to drive the wedge be tween, the English-speaking people and the foreigners and- drive them from the close association of the Canadian institutions, or is it not better to try and get them in as much as possible closer to the' Canadian institutions, to make one solid country? It is true we have . some..European scums; it is aso true that we have some Canadian _ scums. It is up to the South Slocan gentleman," others and myself to clean these scums out of the country. It is true this country needs to do something. Thanking you for the given valuable | space, , DESIRABLE CANADIAN. Nelson, B.C., June 29, 1924.

Toronto Board By its yoke shall ye know it. The midsummer frock, I mean. In this model the yoke is extended to produce a drop shoulder effect in place of sleeves, and, with engaging individuality gives the effect of tying itself into long streamers. This is only harmless pretense, however. The narrow scarf ends are. knotted in the center and attached to the yoke separately. You will observe how the bodice is softened by slight gathers at each side. Otherwise, the design is entirely plain, being cut on straight lines and gathered into the waist by a narrow sash of self-material. The narrow.-frills are pleated, and appear only in the front and at the "sfSes' of the skirt, the back remaining entirely flat. This is a charming idea both for plain and printed silk, georgette, and voile. • TORONTO, July 2.—No unusual activity occurred in any single stock or group in today's session on the stock market; but there appeared an improvement in market sentiment. Dairy common came out at 51% and moved to 52, and all offerings were taken at this price, which is a new high. There was a fairly lively trade in Canadian Salt at 112. There was also moderate buying in Twin City at 49. $>- Twenty Years Ago (From The Daily News, July 3,1904) There was considerable disappointment among the Kootenay Indians assembled in this city to participate in the celebration over the fact that their babies were barred at the baby show held on Friday. The displeasure was of the open-mouthed, defiant kind, and in order to prevent ghost dances and a possible uprising of the aborigines,., D. McArthur & Co, generously donated a rubber-tired baby carriage to be donated to the prettiest' papoose. Mr. McArthur, however, stipulated that T. G. Procter and Melville Perry should be~~tHe" judges, and the latter should whesJJh^prjze^ winning baby from his store to the Bank of Montreal and back .again. Some 12 little aborigines were ranged in rows while the judges searched for signs of beauty among them. It was no easy task to find it, but after many consultations it. was decided that Melika, son of Mr. Sit-In-the- Sun and his devoted spouse, Juanita, were entitled to the baby carriage. He is a moon-faced kid with a nose like a piece of dough. Mr. Perry put I the little aborigin into the baby ! carriage and "moved proudly down j the street, the observed of all observers, and accompanied by the entire delegation of Indians. Many were heard to remark as he passed on his triumphant way, "How much the child resembles his father." The Indians are much pleased at the generosity of Donald McArthur and say he is a "heep good man and a skoo- kum chief." * * * Mrs. William Lawrence and Miss Lawrence of Revelstoke are the guests of Mrs. James Lawrence, Silica street. * * * isu$U-< Miss Ida Tencate, proprietress of the Neflson cafe, has been obliged to retire from business owing to ill health, and her place has been taken by Mrs. Armitage, who will conduct the business in the future. * * # Some dishonest person broke through the rear of Emory & Wal- ley's store on Baker street some time during the night of July 1, or early yesterday morning.

Ainsworth Pupils Have Fine Picnic, Receive Diplomas AINSWORTH, B.C., July 2.—The Amsworth school held its annual picnic on the school grounds Thursday -afternoon.■ '£ There- was quite- --a big gathering io4 parents and friend's; of the children, and about 50 sat down to supper.- Games were played before supper, after which a number of contests were tried. The tug-o'-war between ladies' teams captained by Mrs. L„ W. Ought- red 'and Mrs. Thompson caused much fun, while the ice cream eating by ladies and gentlemen was the cause of much hilarity. The ladies were quitters in the latter, as they would not finish the quantity of ice cream given to them. The chldren's races were an enjoyable event. Miss Agnes Allen, the schoolmistress, arranged the affair. • W. E. Lane assisted with the sports. Mrs. Lafe McLellan gave the use of her Kitchen to boil the water, and the ladies of the town contributed the cakes, pies, sandwiches and salads which were served at supper, and also served the supper. School closed Friday, when the. following promotions were announced by the schoolmistress, Miss Allen, who also presented the children with the MacLean writing certificates and the rolls of honor ■ they had gained: From Grade 6 to Grade 7, Isabel McLellan; from Grade 4 to Grade 5, Ifabel Oughtred and Billy Lane; from Grade 3 to Grade 4, Stanley McLellan and. Wesley Thompson; from Grade 1 to Grade 2, William Ought- led, Thomas Lane and Margaret Thompson. Rolls of honor were awarded as follows: Proficiency, Isabel Ought- ted; deportment, Isabel McLellan; regularity and punctuality, William Oughtred. Diplomas for MacLean method of n.uscular handwriting went to Isabel McLellan, Isabel Oughtred, Billy Lane, Stanley McLellan, Wesley Thompson. Thomas Lane, William Oughtred and Margaret Thompson. B§ Jmmes W. Bmrtm. MJK To Beat the Heat (Registered in accordance with the Copyright act.) There will come days of hot weather that will cause prostrations more or less throughout the entire country. The old-fashioned methods of treating these are still good enough. That Is, a cool, shady spot with -cold water to head and chest. A little later if attack has been severe, enough to cause collapse, you give stimulants and actually apply heat to the body to induce perspiration. But you've often read about the natives and others of hot countries who really know how to beat the heat. They simply go off to sleep during the hot part of the day and give their bodies a complete rest. Because the real cause of heat exhaustion is that the intense heat has interfered with wou own heat centers, and has actually paralyzed them. The trouble is actually due in most cases to the fact that you can't get rid of the natural heat of the body, and the. natural waste matter that should ■go out of the body by perspiration. And yet if you work, you manufacture more heat and waste matter. If an electric fan is working near you and you are perspiring well, the amount of heat and waste matter of which you rid your body is enormous. Under conditions of this kind, if you are in good shape physically you can endure a great amount of heat. If your circulation is poor you are in a run-down condition generally, then in very hot weather it would be wise for you to follow the custom of the people of hot countries, and lie down in as cool a place as possible during the middle of the day. But the real way to beat the heat is to have yourself in good physical condition, with a heart muscle strong enough to send the blood around the body, and to the skin with good force. Then with the skin kept clean with a daily bath, and light, loose clothes that allow a good circulation of air next to the skin, you help the evaporation of the heated water from your body. Eat light food in small amounts, "tnat IS "Easily digested, even-if- you have to eat an extra meal a day. Cut down on your meat and heavy pastries. Keep out of the sun. Have your .windows protected from the sun, and then you can keep some windows open. Don't do any more work than is absolutely necessary during the hot part of the day. And another big thing. The best refrigerant for the, body at all times is an empty large intestine.

Cranbrook Conductor Wins Damage Suit for Wrongful Dismissal ♦ PRICE HAS A MEANING ONLY WHEN PURCHASE IS MADE BY ANEXPERW , i3fe wise way to pnrofcase anything is to' defend on the judgment of an expert for v^lue and wee your own judgment In choosing between, things ol equal value. In purchasing anything many people use the price tag as a measure of value.i Then they .make their choice and are usually dlBS&tigfied. Ordinarily, when anything is reduced in price, it is reduced in qual- -M'ty.-" It may look the same to the average purchaser, but he is no judge of quality. It takes an expert to judge quality, in any line, ■^Whether it is investments, furniture or houses, v'tisvi • Do your trading through some one you know to tie an expert; then vou can have them pick out things of equal value at various prices. 0'hey can explain why one thing costs- more than another.

CALGARY, July 2.—Mr. Justice Walsh has handed down judgment in favor of the plaintiff for $10,000 with costs, in the action of Thomas D. Cavan, railway conductor, against the Canadian Pacific Railway company. Cavan sought damages for wrongful dismissal following an investigation by the company of alleged improper returns made by Cavan to the company. The judgment in effect means, that the agreement between the Canadian Pacific railway and the Brotherhood cf Railway Conductors is a binding contract between each railway conductor and the railway company, and not, as contended by the company, merely an agreement with the brotherhood, of which the men can-i not take advantage as individuals. Charges Must Be Immediate It also settles the point, bitterly contested between the men and the company, that spotters cannot charge conductors with taking fares for their own use long after the offence Is sSld to have been committed, thus giving the 'conductor no opportunity of identifying and calling the passengers from whom it was said he collected fares, to disprove the charge. Mr. Justice Walsh held that where a conductor is continued in the service, after such an offence has said to have been committed, the railway company is deemed to have condoned the offence, and cannot afterward discharge him from the service. A. A. McGillivray, K.C., and S. J. Helman acted for Cavan; Hon. R. B. Bennett, K.C., George A. Walker, K.C., and D. W. Clapperton for the Canadian Pacific railway.
