Bigger Zepp Yet Planned, German Says, but Need a New Motor WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.—The ZR-3 was declared today by Secretary Wilbur, speaking ln behalf of the navv, to be "a symbol of peace and friendship between her builders, her owners and other nations." To further define her role, he said, the ship would be rechrlstened Lop Angeles when the government formally takes possession. Mr. Wilbur's announcement was made In the course of a speech of a luncheon to Dr. Huko Eckener, head of the German Zeppelin company, nnd several executives of the air cruiser, during their visit today to Washington. Broadcaster of Poace Announcing his selection of Los Angeles as the future name of the Shenandoah's consort, Secretary Wilbur expressed the hope that It mljrht not only be a constant reminder of tbe angel's song, but that on each Christmas eve from her place in the heavens the song might again be broadcast to the world: "Peace to men of good will." The visit of the ZR-3 was of great significance, he said, assuring the German officials that the flag which would replace theirs on the ship would be that of a nation "honestly desiring the prosperity and happiness of all the Oerman people." Later, addressing the advisory council. Dr. Eckener predicted the "certain development" of transoceanic transportation along the lines pioneered by the ZR-3. Develop a. More-Stable Oil In answer to questions, he said that type of ship was the logical carrier fnr the new trade because of the measuro of comfort afforded, its safety In all weathers and the ease of Improvements along necessary lines. He expressed the opinion, however, that extended commercial utilization of aircraft would be impossible until a motor had been developed using a less volatile fuel than gasoline. Until the new motive unit was developed, the Zeppelin bead said, It would be better to confine commercial operation of dirigibles to "special lines such as mail transportation in order that public support may not be alienated by some catastrophe." Next One a Third Larger The Zeppelin company's experts were reported to have already prepared plans for .a ship of 3,500.000 cubic feet capacity, or more than 35 per cent larger than the ZR-3. A speed of five meters a second more than that afforded by the new Lakehurst cruiser also was recommended by these technicians, Dr. Eckener said, adding that his company did not believe routes of under 3000 kilometers would show a profit in commercial operations. "The United States is one of the few, if not the only country, which contains such distances within hur own limits." he said. "Por instance, the New York-L,os Angeles run would be more than tho minimum distance wo think required." // Conservatives Win, He'll Be Prosecuted JOHN ROSS CAMPBELL Editor of the Workers' Weekly, the London Communist organ, by an article counseling soldiers to refuse duty, laid himself open to a sedition charge, the withdrawing of which by the Labor attorney-general, S'r Patrick Hastings, brought on the crisis which led to the defeat in parliament of the MacDonald government and the present election.

For a few seconds the two birds tussled on the ground, but a nearby spectator, Manuel G laser, aged 10, also took a hand In the fight, and by using a atlck nnd his feet succeeded in driving off the eagle. Though stunned, it managed to get away before a gun could be brought into action. If it had not been for the prompt and plucky action of the lad, the goose would certainly have been killed.

THE MEETING AT THE HOSPITAIi Shadows crept between them in the blue gloom of the taxi. The wind rushed shouting down the road, unloosening billows of darkness. .Margaret felt the wind In' her heart, sweep in with cold, in and out with cold and dark and utter desolation. She touched Nora Lee's hand, turning a dim face that wavered like a pale, despairing light. "I knew—ah, I knew. Why did. I let hfm go?" "You couldn't know. Mother, your face is so frightened. But you didn't know." "Of course, not! Of course, not— how could I know?" She leaned forward and tapped the window. "Hurry—drive mors quickly." After a moment she said calmly: "We will be there first. It will be hours before anyone can come from Falrdale." A nurse met Margaret In the hall. "Mrs. Meadows—yes, you may come." "He Is not dead?" "Not yet." Her lips drew sharp against the protesting cry of anguish. The nurse went on quietly: "He was unconscious at first. He rallied an hour ago and called for you. He is passing now." Through the boom and thudding that is the muffled roar of coming grief Margaret heard her words. "He was driving on the Colma road. An other machine crowded him at the curve and a third coming in the opposite direction bore against the two with blinding lights. Mr. Stew car plunged over the cliff. The driv1 er responsible for the accident sped away. The third car brought the Injured here." "Was he driving alone?" "Yes." Down the long wh'te corridor—llie turning of a knob—a form lying on the bed—the graying brown of An drew's massy hair—the bronze of his thin, harried face—no light in the half-shut, dreaming eyes. A forlorn despondence In the way his hand lay lifeless on tbe covers. To Margaret no one ever looked so lonely; none had ever such a plead ing sadness In their look. Oh, that her arms were wings—great, sheltering wing.s—that might fold down about him with a life and peace. Fear left her heart; she moved with the serene poise of a spirit come to claim tbe dying. She dropped her hand on his, whispering in a voice that was the very music of Immortal pain: "Andrew—An drew—do you hear?" His eyes raised, a spark flickering in their hidden depths. He tried to speak. She dropped on her knees and pressed her lips to his inert hands. He seemed pleased; diant, boyish gladness touched his mouth. With tremendous effort his thought struggled for utterance. Margaret wanted those words as the heart wants Its pulse. She said, leaning close: "Speak Andrew—oh, if you can—" "I've waited for you—Margaret; none but you—" Forms moved ln tho room; the door closed softly. They were alone. Suddenly the gallant look was in his eyes, but they closed abruptly. Her hands tightened in a sudden madness on his. Bhe fell forward on her knees so that her face lay against his on the pillow. A faint sound of Joy: "My darling —thanks!" It was so like his old, tender laugh she trembled. She remem be red nights and days—his eyes, his voice; the melting of their hearts In anguished rapture. She. rentem bored once reaching her hand to draw his head to hers, remembered his exultant sigh: "Ah, life, Margaret—she owes ua nothing, not a sou!" She whispered: "Andrew—that night under the madronos—the silver stars?" His hand gave answer. It went throbbing through her veins like a song. "Andrew, tho mountains when you came?" "I hear—'* "Andrew—all your dear, d goodness—" "Ah—don't—" Then suddenly the scene of the morning flashed with steel-crliel brightness to her mind. Only this very morning he clasped her in his arms. Now she remembered the heart-piercing quiet of his eyes; the beseeching prayer that was in his voice; remembered suddenly the appalling sense of doom that fell upon her when he said: "Dear life of mine, J do not know If It Is a last goodby; I do not know why I am saying this, but if it farewell, my dear— oh, my dear loved Marguret, you wli remember the years of fullness. You will believe I try to do the better thing, now. most of all." Ominous and terrible was their ringing in her ears—a fatal prophesy. She began to weep. She said through a falntness that whirled like the fogi of mortality through her brain: "1 let you go to this. Oh, my Andrew'. Why did you go—to this!" He stirred. He pushed both hands as though they moved with mighty horror against the weight of death that bore upon him. "No! Not that—" He seemed to feel her tear*. He gripped her hands, raising himself a little, his eyes glowing in the ashen pallor of his face. Ho made a wild, desperate fight and won. All tho strength and tenderness; all the love and prayer their many days had known were now focused In a long, rapt look. Suddenly he smiled, the smile of boyish thanks that ■. had first so thrilled her pulse. He .said with an utter peace: "I loved you—love you DODD'S \ fKIDNEY^ ^i,p,LLS^ xH.K:r)Ni^'-;/ ^Bggpr —tot) much for that—Margaret, you must know I loved " Hla lips faltered, an astonished fright transfixed his eyes as though an unseen hand had plunged a dagger through tbeir light—"Going- reach your hands—" They touched against his face like flowers—white, fragrant flow- era . . , She stooped and closed h s eyes with lips that fainted; that whispered wildly: "Andrew—Andrew— take me—" His dying breath was harsh against her cheek. She felt that and nothing. Then Bomeone's face was Boft on hers; someone's voice sobbed faintly: "Oh, mother—mother—" She looked Into the girl's eyes, dazed and bewildered, Nora Lee implored her: "Oh, mother, what am I to do—you look so." Margaret answered calmly: "He Is gone, my darling—gone." She leaned against the wall. Her face was white—It was whiter than the dead's. She said with mortal terror: "It is so. It is really. Ah, Andrew Is gone—" "Come—oh, won't you come—" Margaret said shakily: "Go back and see if he is dead—If it can be that he is dead," She put her arm in Margaret's: "Come, dear mother: he iu dead—I have gone tn und kissed his face. It Is so cold—so, mother, there Is such a look of peace as though be Just stopped smiling." .Margaret clenched her hands against her heart. She said faintly —"oh—then he ,'s gone—you say his face is cold—then we must go—" She let Nora Lee lead her blindly wn the steps. she murmured "Oh, you are gone—you are gone . . ." As they passed to the curb where the machine waited, an automobile came tearing headlong. It stopped at the hospital—a flatter of long veils—a purple cape brushed Nora Lee's sleeve. The white face and garish hair of Andrew's wife shone under the shadow of an immense hat. Poor, unprotesting dead that may be claimed because the spirit has gone winging on Us way—■ But It made Nora Lee cry—oh that Margaret should see that—that phe must leave tiie dear beloved-— give him that was so honored in his life to this unkindly death—have those unpltying hands defile the empty sepulcher— Margaret shielded her fare with her hands. She sat as one from whom all life is gone. Once she said to Nora Lee: "What is the time?" "Nearly 11." "Eleven—ah, this noon he was alive." The moment of final parting came like a chord of distant harmony to Margaret's mind—the look of rapt, undying faith in Andrew's gentle eyes; the smite of boyish sweetness: "I loved you—too much for that—" Hhe went Into the house—wandered about the room—touching the things that ho had loved—-opening a book-^- There was ln Its pages a snapshot. Nora Lee had taken. It was of Andrew, gallant and laughing—■ Margaret took it up to the light, She turned It this way and that. She said to Nora Lee: "I cannot see tho face—tell me, has it faded?" "Oh, mother—you must see it—of course, you do—" Margaret's eyes glanced at her strangely: "No, 1 cannot see his face. Then it mu.st be, he is dead—" She said that and dropped in Nora Lee's bewildered arms.

His methods were not those of the orthodox scientist, but he got there just as well and sometimes perhaps a little better. Millions of readers all over this continent have read Foster's weekly forecast in the daily newspapers, watched for it eagerly. They have found these reports surprisingly accurate. There have been errors, but they have been so far outweighed by correct forecasts that Foster won a reputation that is going to live for long after him. It is stated that his system of forecasting can be operated by his son, and that the Foster weather bureau will carry on. That is good news. We all like to know each Saturday what the weather is going to do to us during the next four or five weeks. Umbrellas and Bloody Carnage * War is war; but a sloppy day is also a sloppy day. Wherefore the Chinese armies, now engaged in bloody carnage in the Celestial kingdom, all go to the front carrying umbrellas. Evidently the Chinese warriors just can't keep the fiery flames of patriotism burning in the rain. By common consent, when it begins to sprinkle, the opposing hosts hoist their canopies and call off the killing. It's one tliiinj to be a Horn- tiun at the bridge und slaughter the oncoming hosts until the yore runs red; until the little pig-tailed Chinese edition of the Valkyries come to lug home the heroes -to a glorious chop- suey Valhalla; but it's quite another thing to have a trickle of rain running off your hat and down, your backbone. Tlial's too much to ask of any hero. The recent dispatches from the front in China tell of an embarrassing incident in the grim annals of battle. One of the generals ordered a slant- eyed "noble six hundred" to advance into the valley of death; but he had forgotten the umbrellas; and it looked like rain. So the "noble six hundred" sat down on their haunches and refused to budge. To paraphrase the old song, as applied to the general: "And the ansicer he'll get Is 'Sit in the wet And.wait till the clouds roll by.'" Wident buseh Ltturu. A.

MA Correcting Mental Depression (Registered In accordance with the Copyright act) The question Is sometimes asked. "Can n mun's mental Btato affect his body?" If he Is suffering mentally Is there any reaction on tho body? the simplest way to answer this, as answered once before, Is In this way You sit down to a table with clean linen, beautiful tableware, and Inviting well cooked food. What happens? "Why not only your mouth "waters'* with increased saliva, but your Hlomach "waters" with dlgentlve lulces, getting ready to lake care of the food. ThuB there i« a feeling of well being because the juices are ready. What happens when conditions are different, soiled linen, unclean tableware, poorly cooked food? The juices are actually restrained from flowing even to the ordinary extent. Similarly mental depression can Interfere with digestion and other functions of the body. Continued mental depression can affect the organs day by day, until the physical body becomes weakened. What should be the treatment? Should you try to replace the depressing emotions, by those of hope and happiness? Yes. this Is wlwe, but it ia often a difficult task. Can you put tho body Into good shape, even if you can't change the attitude of mind? Yes, systematic outdoor exercise, walking, golf or other games, with attention to diet and flccp will build the body up, even although the mental attitude appears to be unchanged. And there is one more point, that Is worthy of note. A depressed mental state causes a sluggishness of all parts of the body with tbe resultant Indigestion, constipation, and m forth. The physical exercise stimulates ull the functions of the body, so that the liver works better, bile flows freely, waste matter Is carried away, the blood purified properly, is going to every tissue in the body, and that tissue Is being renewed. This "renewing" of the body has Its natural effect upon the brain, because the tissues of the brain share in * the process hy means of the removal of waste, and the building power of fresh purr Mood.

In putting, should the play, erect and grip the cluh at or should lie ban over and it'.'" Why? Answered By LEO D1EGEL Canadian open champion, Shawnee open champion, and Illinois open champion. Use the position which seems most comfortable and which gives Ihe greatest steadiness to the body. Steadiness Is the main point to strive for in putting. • Leaning over and gripping the puller short is not a good way to put, ordinarily, as It puts too much weight on the toes and balls of the feet. ' This tends to rtuise a swaying of the body. Usually It Is better to stand more erect. Vith the weight of the body more on the heels, ln most cases this will give the desired steadiness and balance. The importance of absolute steadiness in putting is a point that cannot be overemphasized. The player who leans over in a cramped attitude when putting is placing too great a strain on his nerves and muscles, tlyos destroying the necessary feeling of comfort and relaxation.

WITH CAR WHILE DRUNK George Lapointe Answers (o Charge in Police Court IS CHARGED DRIVING TO COMMON DANGER Milk Wagon Hit by Auto in Early Morning Hours Two bent axles, a broken tailboard, spilled milk and abusive language figured In the evidence presented in city police court yesterday morning when George Lapointe answered to a charge laid by city police of driving an automobile when Intoxi cated. Evidence submitted also showed that James Lane, whose car Lapolnte was driving, bad also attempted to run-down Lester Longdon, a milkman, whose wagon had been bumped by the automobile. This latter evidence was denied by the defendant. After hearing three witnesses for the defence and two for the prosecution Magistrate William Brown withheld hia judgment until Monday morning next at 10 o'clock. On Monday Lapointe will answer to a charge of driving to the common danger, nnd James Lane, who was with him at the time of the accident, will also answer to the same charge and to a charge of not reporting an accident to the police authorities. The charge against Lapointe was brought about by the city police on information of L. Longdon, whose milk wagon had bren run into by an automobile being driven by Lapolnte on the morning of October 14. Longdon, who delivers milk in company with a coworker, Frank Hay- v.ood, for the Kootenay Valley Milk Cooperative Products association, was delivering milk about 2:30 o'clock on High street. When romlng down from a house he saw a ear strike his wapon and the horses start to run away. Hd stopped the team and returned to the car 10 find that it was driven by Lapointe, and In It was James Illine, the owner of the car. Longdon claimed that damage had been done to the axles of the wagon and milk lost through the hump. "Look Out! Look Out!" Longdnn was the first witness called, and be staled he had seen Lapolnte the worse for drink on the morning of October 14, Longdon wns coming down to hla wagon from delivering a bottle of milk to a High street residence when he snw th-- headlights of a car strike tbe milk wagon. The then heard shouts of: "Look out! Look out!" An automobile then came within i% yards of ihe wagon, when it suddenly swerved clear, the back wheels or fenders striking his milk wagon. A milk ease dropped out, bottles broke and milk was spilled. Witness stated that after slopping his horses he went around to the hack ol the car and took the number, lS-lfii 24. He did not know who»r> car it was, but he knew that It had been traveling too fast for that locality. Lane was the .first to get out of the car, and Lapolnte was at the wheel. Lapolnte then got out and exclaimed: "What's the damages','" Witness replied that he did not know, aa he couldn't tell just then. He smelted liquor on Lapointe as he ma le his way out of the car; his eyes were bloodshot, and he walked as did a child when just learning to walk. His talk showed intoxication. Longdon told Lapolnte that he could not ascertain the da manes un- li ss he go to a blacksmith shop. Lane then asked, in Lapolnte's presence, what they were going to do about his ear. Witness replied that he had nothing to do with the car, an lie had not run into it. Lapointe, stated the witness, used filthy language as he was about to leave, The two milkmen then went on delivering their milk down the street, toward the shipyards. When in front of the Hlaiictiard residence the two again appeared, In the car, and Lane, getting out, approached Longdon In a violent mood, asking him What he was going to do about it. In righting Hood "I don't have to tell you, Mr. Lane; that is my business," stated Longdon. Witness then made for his wagon, when Lapointe took a bold of his coat as if to take it off, stating that he could lick the Witness. Longdon had replied that he was a poor man if he could not The men then proceeded with their delivery. The automobile, some minutes later, again approached the milk wagon on Nelson avenue, coming directly be hind it, with voices yelling, "Where is your talllight?" The automobile nearly hit the wagon, which was standing under a light. There was no light on the wagon, Longdon approached the wagon after delivering to the l'ritchard houRe, the automobile shot forward as if to run him down. Quickness on his behalf was all that saved him, stated the witness: In cross-examination Longdon declared that he had not at any time stated the law would take its course. Lapointe Waa Hot Sober Frank Haywood, fellow-workman with Longdon on the milk delivery told the court that he had seer the car hit the wagon. He had seen Lane nnd Lapolnte come to the wagon. He had not smelled liquor on Lapolnte, as he was too far away away at the time. Lapointe, however, was not walking ltk» a sober man. After looking over thj affair. Lapointe said: "I'm out for a good time. How much are the damages?" At that he put his hand Into his pocket as If to pay, Longdon then explained that he could not tell how much damage was done, but that an axle was bent. Lapolnte then made a beastly remark. Witness then stated lo Lapointe that it was new wagon. He, In return, received a beastly remark. Witness stated that he had told Lapolnte that he waa drunk, and that he did not want any of hia filthy talk. Later the milkmen met an automobile In front of Prltch- ard's, and It had swerved as If In an attempt .Jo run Longdon .down, . .. Cross - examined, ne emphatically stated that the accused waa drunk. At this point E. G. Matthew, counsel for the defendant, submitted to Magistrate Brown that the prosecution had not made a case, Inasmuch as they had not proven who was the driver of the car. The magistrate waa of the opinion that It had been shown that Lapolnte was driving, and ordered the case to continue. Taxi Driver Testifies James Lane, taxi driver, was the first witness for the defence, and he told of receiving a call by telephone from Lapolnte at about 2:30 o'clock. Lapointe wished a car at the Queen's hotel. Witnese had gone to bed at 8 o'clock that night, and was awakened hy his wife when the phono had rung. Going to the Queen's hotel, Lapolnte had told him that he wanted to take Horace Lapointe home, as Horace was the worse for liquor. "We'll take Horace home. How's the car running? Can I drive her?" were Lapolnte's questions to the taxi man. , Witness stated that he had given Lapolnte permission to drive the car, aB he had just had the valves ground and wished Lapointe to see how nice it was running, The trio then drove out past the hospital toward Fairvlew when, after going up the small incline near where the old oity boundary line was formerly, they had hit a milk wagon. The driver of the car, stated Lane, seeing a horse-drawn vehicle ahead of htm about some 25 feet, swerved to one side, escaping the wagon by only a fraction of an inch and hitting It a glancing blow. The clatter of falling milk bottles started the team away, Longdon stopped the horses, and then came back and took the number of the car, stating that the law would settle the matter. Lapolnte here offered to pay for all damage. Longdon claimed that the car had hit his tailgate, which, stated Lane, was an impossibility, and furthermore he did not believe that the axles were hent, as his car had not been damaged by the collision. Longdon got hufty, and the pair In the car drove off. I^ine stated that he and Lapointe drove on to Bennett's residence on Gordon street, where Lapointe had business. Lapointe, he stated, was all right when he left him and when he had met him. He was not intoxicated. He denied having attempted to run over Longdon, and stated that he waa home In bed again at 3:40 o'clock. Cross-examined, the witness stated lhat he had not been drinking, nnd that the automobile ln question was owned by him. Lapolnte was not drunk, and had not used abusive language. Lapointe Was Sober J. E. Bennett of Gordon road, Fair- view, told of Lapolnte calling on him in the early morning hours on a matter of business. Lapolnte stayed there some 20 minutes, and had told Lane to stay in the car, as he wished to see Mr. Bennett personally. La pointe, stated the witness, was sober and rational In his talk. Cross-examined, he staled he could not smell liquor on Lapointe. George lapointe, the defendant, was the final witness, and he told the court of Horace Lapointe coming into the Queens' at about 2:15 o'clock In bad shape. He was pretty well under the influence of liquor. He wished to take him home, and so phoned for Lane. Lane, at witness's request told him he could run the car to Fairvlew. After mounting a small hill High street he stated that a wagon suddenly loomed up, and before he was able to clear It the car had struck It a grazing blow. The team started away and someone stopped lt. Longdon took the car number. Lapointe then asked what the damage is, nnd someone said: "Two and a quarter." Witness started to put his hand In his pocket to get out the money, when Longdon stated that an axle was bent nnd that ho would settle with him some place else. Line then came on the scene and yelled: "Tell him to go to ." While the fracas was proceeding, Horace Lapolnte had gotten out of the car and gone home. Lane and Lapointe then got in the car and drove to Bennett's. Witness stated that he was willing to pav the damage, as he did not want anv trouhle. He had not been drinking that day. He had been painting, and at 5:30 had had two bottles of beer. Longdon, he stated, had gone up in the air. Cross-examined, he stated that he had pretty good eyesight, and that he had driven Lane's car before. Judgment was reserved by the magistrate till Monday. He was of the opinion that perjury had been committed on one side of the case: which side, he stated, was a pufczle. '.ng eastward, fruit being the principal commodity affected ln this district. "This does not, however, give any relief to the people In the prairie provinces, who benefited greatly from the agreement rates. If the saving In freight to the people of the western provinces provided under this agreement is to be taken away from them by the cancellation of the agreement, it should be returned to them in some other form, such as reduction of the rates affecting basic commodities. These might include those moving both east and west, such as coal, forest products, grain and farm produce. "The agreement was entered into In the first place with the object of assisting in the development of the prairie provinces, and to assist the pioneers of the prairies.* It seems only right that they should continue to benefit from this agreement in some way."
