LONDON, Nov. 17.—Men are more
coddled than women when it comes
to dress and would be a great advantage if they would shed their
collars and take to open necks, Prof.
Leonard Hill, noted physiologist, said
today ln advising an assemblage of
women "to wear as little as you can."
Professor Hill, speaking on the hy-
glene of dress, said that the reason
Gertrude Ederle and Mrs, Clemlngton
Corson were able to accomplish their
channel swims was because they had
trained themselves to stand cold better than men by wearing short
■klrts.
"Pneumonia" blouses are all nonsense," Professor HIU said. "No girl
ever caught pneumonia through
wearing a low blouse. It hardens
her and helps her to resist such disease."
BENTON HARBOR, Mich.. Nov.
17.—Benjamin Franklin Purnell,
69-year-old "king" of the strange
religious colony, the "house of 'David," sought for more than three years
as a despoiler of young womanhood
under the guise of religious rites, Is
In   the   tolls.
The gaunt, long-haired "king,"
who in 1903 founded the colony
from which it has estimated he
has derived |J00,000 was taken from
his sleeping quarters early today by
Mate police, released under $60,000
bond and, a few hours later rearrested when a circuit court Judge
held that the bond was not satisfactory. Later he was released on
bonds totalling $120,000 on charges
of criminal assault p|eferred by two
former, girl   members  of  the  colony.
The cult leader was forced to
supply $10,000 on each of two capiases served in connection with damage Bults started by the girl com-
plainaatft/ Th.s waa jo addition to
ihe two criminal bonds on $&ft,000
e« oh.
Now Feeble Old Man
It was no dashing philanderer
whom the police found when they
entered the colony's administration
building. ' Instead there was a feeble
old man! hardly able to walk without assistance, a tactiturn, silent man
who admitted his identity and then
left what more there waa to br mla
to   his   Wife,    "Queen   Mary."
It was wltW "Queen Mary" that
Purnell left the Kentucky foothills
more than a quarter of a century
ago to preach his strange doctrine—
that he is the brother of the Saviour and that those who will believe
with him will be immortal.
Slaters MaJte Charge
Two sisters—Ruth Bamford Reed
and Gladys Bamford Rubel—made
the charges which prompted a worldwide search for the man who once
was denounced by Federal Judge
John E. Slater as the man who
"planted sin with the gold of religion."
The girls, one 20, the other 22
years old, swore that Purnell had
criminally assaulted them while they
were members of the colony. "Blood
purification rJtes" was the explanation the "king" made for the liberties on which the Bamford sisters' charges were taken, not only
with them, but with other girl members of the  colony.

away for the Sheiks over the Smelter te»m ana a victory for the Mat-
rlca ln a at«f fight with the Independents In the ladies' league, resulted in tonight's basketball triple
header in Memorial hall gym. A
large and enthusiastic crowd of spectators filled  the   gallery.
«» City Hall hoys, after playing
a strenuous and result-getting game
praotloally threw away their chances
of vtotory In the last five minutes
For half of the period they had been
steadily creeping up on the Town
team and were only two points behind, at tt t» »0. when Cook and
M. Demldoff, guards, discarded caution In efforts to crowd through a
tying basket. Plester and Bulmer
wer» quick to take advantage lying
under the unguarded basket, they
whipped three goals in before the
score-eager guards awakened to their
mistake. '
Ritchie was a bright light on the
City Hall team, at center, and
plajfed a hard and effective game.
He scored most of their baskets,
thoHffh .Demidoff and Marshall ran
him  close,
Plester was again the star shooter for the Town team and with
Bulmer and Hall was quite too much
at close quarters tor the opposing
guards. Williams and J. Demidoff
played their usual steady, hard-
checking game at guards. The final
aoore was 86 to 80 ln favor ot Town
team.
Smohpr  Goes  Well
In the first half of the Shelfts vs.
Smelter clash, lt looked as though
the 8melter had the strongest team.
Forward, probably the hardest
checking guard In the league, had
as his sidekicker Gavrllic and alternately Turnbull. With Hallwell play.

Murdock and Wright fast, elusive,
and good combination players on
the wings, the team had some good

the Sheiks through this period although they had an adverse score
of 12 to 8.
But ln the second period lt was a
different story. Sammons and
Chandler, who are developing Into
•emarkably fine guards, hardly ever
et them get under tbe basket and
usually Intercepted or broke up
their plays some distance off. While
Bailey, Evans and Burrows, scooping
up the tipped balls, fairly ran rings
round the Smelter boys, and Invariably shot before coming Into

Bailey vied with Evans for scoring

Matrlcs Have Edge
In the ladles' fixture the Matrlcs

the
"Doesn't success mean anything
to   you?"   Judy   asked   Carter.
Success? Success waa money! And
money bought everything in the
world, lt bought friends and comforts. It bought—love! Why, with
money a man could win even thia
lovely child! Could smooth the road
for hor small, dancing feet! Success? Most certainly he believed in
aucceas!
'Success means a great deal to
me," he said gravely. "I'd be a fool
If lt didn't.    Money  means power."
And at that Judy shrank back,
shocked, startled. "Oh, I don't mean
money!"  she cried.
"What other success is there but
money?"   he   asked   h«r.
"The sucoeas of doing something
better than anyone else in the world
can do it!" she told him proudly.
"And as fsr power—well, money
Won't give you the power to make
beauTy!"
Tommy smiled. "It will giye, you
tthe power to buy beauty," he said.
For an Instant Judy winced. How
confident this blond young giant was!
Then she went on steadily, "Do you
think it would mean as much to you
to buy one of Honey's pictures as It
would mean to Honey to paint the
rtcture?"
'When he did not answer her she
jreesed ahead. "My toys are ugly
Mit they make children laugh. That
nakes me happier than merely buying one of the toys for a child could
make me!"
"Tour toys are clevtr. And besides
bey give you an outlet. But after all
taking toys ls not your destiny, and
pu know it."
At that Judith drew a deep sigh.
'Oh, I hope not!" she breathed soft-
"If only some day I can bo a
■eal artist and make figurines! If
nly   I   can!"
Tommy ' gave a swiff mocking
(Ugh. "FJgurines? Judy! Why wont

ind enable the merchant to refuse
■redit to the dead-beats. With the
onst'cjuent elimination of businea*
aaapf from dead-beats and tbe noces*
dty to make such looses a charge oil
he business, the merchant will be
ible to give the honest customer ihe
ull     value    iii    imrehandlHO    for    his
ftOMg .
This branch will be linked up with
ilx other Kootenay branches. One
inw functions in Nelson with 70

"I've always wanted to make beautiful things! Always! And some day
I'll be able to do U. Not lovely, gorgeous things like Honey, but beautiful things just the same. Wait and
see!'
"I'm not an awfully good judge,"
said Tommy tolerantly, "but it seems
to me that there's more originality in
one of your toys than in 10 of Honey's pictures!"
Judith made a little furious movement. "How can you even compare
one of those ugly toys to Honey's
pictures? Why, Honey is great! I'm
nothing, yet, but a maker of cheap,
common  toys!"
"There!" Tommy cried triumphant.
ly, "that's what I mean! You know
those toys aren't really the thing for
you to be doing! I knew you felt that
way even if you wouldn't admit it!
And I was right. Give them up,
Judy."
"Give them up?" Judy looked at
him in wide-eyed astonishment.
"Why, I couldn't afford to giv^ them
up! It's silly to think how much I
can earn for doing such ugly things!
And we need every cent of the
money! Dabs' pay is uncertain, at
best, you know. My money Ib the only*
steady Income we have." Her cheeks
flushed suddenly. "I don't want you
to think that Dabs doesn't help all
he can!" she cried loyally.
Tommy dismissed lhat wiih a nod.
"But why should you set yourself
the Job of earning for them?" he demanded. "If I were in your place
I'd stop Clouding up all my sky
with Honey and Dabs. You've a right

The pictures Honey paints and the
books Dabs writes aren't any more
real than these parties are real fun.
The only reason people Who are real

H out of10
doctors said
laxatives are harmful
IN a recent coast-fo-coasr
investigation we asked
doctors the plain question:
"Do you consider cathartics
and laxatives harmful?"
6*4.24-^ answered unqualifiedly "Yes." 8% more said
"Yes, if taken repeatedly."
Laxatives make the bowels
weak by doing their work for
them. If expulsion ol waste
matter is forced by pills or
other drugs, the bowel muscles soon become powerless
todo their work without help
In other words, laxatives
bring on the laxative habit
Doctors Advise Nujol
Nine doctors out ol every ten
told us they wereadvising the
Nujol type of treatment for
t heir patients in place of laxa
tives—and for these reasons:
1. Nujol is not habit-forming;
2. A more natural method;
}. A lubricant is better than
.1 laxative; 4. Does not gripe;
*>. Is not irritating; and 6.
Nujol gives lasting relief.
Unlike Laxatives
Laxatives and cathartics
act by irritating the intes-
ttnal truer   Thev iause
the bowels to Iranucally expel the contents of the intestines and thus rid the system
of the drugs that pills and
potions contain.
Nujol tcta entirely differently. It

Hiding Behind Private
Members
"The two principles eonipluiied
of vrere not passed by Bra government but were private measures."
This statement, in the report of
the Cranbrook sitting of the forest
inquiry in yesterday's issue, is it -
tributed to Hon. T. D. Pattullo, mlii-
later of lands and forests, and, from
the context, apparently had reference
$o the Hours of Work act, and perhaps also to the Workmen's Compensation act. It at least referred to
the Hours of Work act, which, us
will be remembered, was sponsored
in the legislature by MaJ. R. J. Burde,
the Independent.
The minister is perfectly  right.
The Oliver government la accustomed to letting subjects on which
the government should have a definite policy, and which should be
taken up in government bills or not
at all, be dealt with in private measures, and sitting back and letting an
unled house make the enactments.
Now, when the lumber industry
mentions certain enactments that it
regards as factors in making it difficult or impossible to operate, the government can remark, and quite truthfully:
"Oh, we didn't do thotie tiling---
They were the work of individual legislators."
In short, what we have at Victoria
ls a private legislature—whenever it
is convenient for tbe government y.o
to regard It—not a public legislature
led by a government that assumes
responsibility for grave measures.
Year-Round Fishing Now
Nelson golfers who cannot 'ft..
enough of that glorious pastime, \nd
play winter golf on the C. P. R. flat,
■will have their counterparts in the
angling fraternity this win'er.
The new game regulations have
opened the lakes east of the 121st
meridian to winter fishing. As that
imaginary line crosses the scenery
somewhere around Ashcroft, almost
all the interior will have winter lake
fishing.
Thus, those anglers who find lh •
spring, summer and fall all loo shuri.
for the pastime of matching th*dr
skill against tbe trout family m.t ,'
betake themselves to the main lake,
and fly-fish or troll off the creek
mouths. In the bracing winter atmosphere.
There are Juat two limitations to
this. If th;* main lake freezes over,
which it has not yet done in recorded history*, the fisherman will
have to quit for the time being, fur
fishing through tbe Ice is prohibited.
The other limitation is that March
and April are forbidden months evn
for lake fishing, the government ordaining that the'flsh In those months
must be undlsturbtd in their spawning.
What will Archie Johnson Mf 19
this? Archie was the author of the
three-pound minimum for trout offered for sale, the enactment thai
killed commercial fishing op tha Son'.h
Slocan   Pool   and   elsewhere.
If Archie is the sume old Aivhi",
he'll write a scorching tetter tu rhe
game board. As a devotee of flyfishing, forever reprobating the dm
of the troll, and having no use for tht
lakes, It Is entirely unlik ly that he

Birds Fly From
Twenty-five to Over
Forty Mies Per Hour
BERLIN, Nov. 17.—Scientific measurements of the speed of a bird's
flight show some of the feathered
flyers capable of approaching a mild
a minute.
Prof. August Thienemaun, at bin
bird observatory at Rossitten, East
Prussia, haa added considerably to
the knowledge of bird speed. TesU
showed the carrier's speed to be nearly equalled by that of the starling,
which he measured as 46.05 miles per
hour. Other speeds were: The Jackdaw, 18.22 miles; the parrot finch. 37
miles; the finch and the rook, 32.58
miles, and hooded crows and gray
gulls,   31.05   miles   per  hour.
The slowest of the birds under observation was the sparrow hawk,
which made only 25.70 miles per hour.

"What is a good Christmas gift for
u boy to make for his mother?" Inquires high school student, who continues: "I am pretty goud ;it cur-
pen try."
Only yesterday as I wulked through
city shops, I noticed the numbers of
sewing scieens for sale and thought
to myself that anybody—boy, girl or
grownup—could uisily make one to
give mothfer, sister or teacher for
Christmas.    Tills Is  how  It  Is  done:
How a Boy Can Make This Screen
—Nail or glue slender, flat la:hs together so as to form u frame, 14 by
24 Inches in size. Gild this frame
with gilt paint. Make another frame
the same size, gild it also, and'put
the two together to form a two-wing
screen by means of two small brass
binges. Now, with brass-headed
tacks, cover the center of each frame
with heavy, floral en-tonne stretched
tau:. If pink or blue Is the dominant colyr in this cretonne, choose
plain pink or plain blue material
(solsette, for instance) to tack onto
the frame as un Inside lining to the
cretonne.
RUB i [tided strip of tho wood
across the middle uf one wing uf the
screen, inside, across the pink lining: have gilded match-sticks set at
intervals along the top of this strip
of wood, to hold spools. Cut squares
of cietonm and low these onto the
pink lining here and there, to hoi*
packages of needle.-*. | x.ra spools,
und other sewing materials. Alao,
at some pait of the inside (use your
own ingenuity and Judgment ln outfitting the' inside of the sere-en U
handily as possible for the sewer)
you might have a drop shelf made
of cretonne and let down on tape
hinges when In use. otherwise fastened up tight to the screen-lining
by means of aocket-and-ball fasteners or snaps. A strip of cretonne
fur scissors to slip into, a tiny pocket
for thimble, and perhaps a g&thered-
lop pocket at lower edge to hold
stockings to be darned, will complete
the pretty and useful gift.
How a Oirl Can Make Thin Screen
—Although girls are generally not as
good at earpentry•> they can make
the screen frame uf heavy "'Monogram Board," bought at any artists'
supply store, covering the two wings
entirely with the cretonne, shirred on
with a ruffle-heading at top and
sides, and hinging the two wings together with tape. To complete it
follow   suggestions   glvtn   above.

English Air Slows
Down American Watches
LONDON, Nov. 17.-—American visitors to England must set their
watches ahead at Uast three minutes
as soon us they* land because of the
effect uf the enervating cllmuf-e on tbe
works. Many visitors find it neci.**-
sary to adjust their watches at least
ivnci- |   week. •
Inquiry among watchmakers disclosed that change of altitude was
more likely to affect watches than

Developing Resistance to
Illness
One of the mysteries of medicine-is
why scarlet fever, measles,. small-pox
and other ailment-, after attacking
man once,.seem t<< be satisfied -and
leave him alone thereafter, whereas
pneumonia, eryaipehs, malaria and'
others, continue to attack him from '
time to time, and leave him Just a
little more likely to have further attacks. *
Generally speaking, the better the
physical condition <»f the Individual
the less likely ls he to have ailments,
or If he has them they are not so
severe. This, of conr.se, is not always true, because sume folks have
a tendency toward certain ailments
and otheis, even if not as strong
physically, possess something which
wards off  these  ailments.
It ie thought that this is tint: to
the fact that some ancestor, immediate or even remote, must have had
a similar ailment and put up such
a wonderful fight against i:, that he
handed on these strong fighting tissues, or at least killed off the possible effect of this ailment on the
UssuiH of hi« children or grandchildren, fur a time at* iMJt
It || also admitted now that there
can be a lowered resistance in an
individual toward these diseases,
because of catelessness on bis part,
or circuniHtanees  beyond   his control.
Wei and cold feet, overwork, mental and physical, poor ventilation, all
tend to lower t he fighting qualities
of the biowd corpuscles which ward
tfff   these   ailments, ,
Baseball fans, following the game
closely, expect certain pitchers to
do well on a hot day and poorly on
a cold or wet day. The wastes manufactured in the pitcher's arm during his turn in the box, should pass
out by means of the blood during
the period that his team Is at bat.
If the weather is cold or damp,
these wastes do not move quickly and
the arm gets .stiff and sore.
Hence the value of heat in fighting ailments of all kinds. Heat is
life as has been  mentioned so  often.
Where the blood supply Is good
and active, ollmentg do not stay ao
long. A cut on the face or hands
heals   quickly   for   this   reason.
And the way to get heat is to eat
good food, nnd then use up this food
by work or play, This insures a
strong htart, nnd a good circulation,
which a i s y o u r best aaf egu nrds
against   illness.

Rod and Gun Banquet
at Cranbrook Draws
Large Crowd Patrons
CRANBROOK Nov. 17. — Preparations made by the district rod and j?un
club for its second annual fish and
game banquet, and the demand for tickets, pointed to the affair tonight being
another extraordinary suecesB. During
the evening men are arriving from all
points In the East Kootenay for the
banquet, and fnme American visitors
wire also expecting to bt represented.
The menu was one to tickle the most
*'piourean palitle and will prove an eye-
opener to those whope knowledge of the
gnme resources of the Cranbrook district may not be as complete as it
should be. It was expected that about
300 would take part in the affair. An
interesting after-dinner program of
-speeches was also arranged.
CONTEST KEEPS

Practically   All   Pullet   Pens;
Russell's Reds in
Lead
In the seventh annual laying con-
teat at the Agasslz experimental
farm, which began November 1,
the polnta system, which was io
revolutionary in its results last year
when tried for the first time, Is being continued, based on the weight
of the eggs laid, for which the standard is 24 ounces per dozen, and
which must not be under 20 ounces
per dozen.
For the first week the 46 pens
have made a remarkably good showing, the birds being presumably
nearly all pullets just ln> lay, and
:he pens of 10 birds averaging 29
eggs each.
As happened throughout the past
vear, top layer for the week ls not
the top point-getter. D. Russell's
Rhode Island Reds lead with 41.6
points, on their 44 eggs. This! ratio
reveals that the birds are pullets,
and In fact only one pen of the 46
shows two-ounce eggs on the first
week. The three top pens for number, F. W. Appleby's White Leghorns with 46 eggs, and F. C. £>ans
and Summerland Experimental station, with 45 each, are away down
on points as compared wi:h Russell,
their marks being 36.2, 31.8 and 31.4,
respectively.

Corbeau was the St. Pats' star.
The Chicago team showed better
combination and condition than their
opponents.
The Hawks opened the play with
a heavy offensive in the list period.
However, after securing a three-point
lead they were satisfied to play, defensive. The Torontonlans could not
get together during the opening
period, but after getting warmed up
they succeeded in making numerous
rushes down the ice. These, how
ever, proved unavailing, except in
the second inning, when Day, as
sisted by Carson, scored.
Day  and  Corbeau   starred  for  the
visitors,   while   Hay   was   the   out
standing  player of the  new Chicago

BELIEF OF FAILURE
Suffered Periodical Attacks of
Depression;   Works
Were in Demand
LONDON, Nov. 17. — The proposed
statement on the constitution of the
Empire, on which the premiers' committee on lnter-Ejtipiri! rt-tatfons has
been working, ls now taking definite
shape. The statement, it is believed,
will do the following;
1—Define more clearly than at present the status of the dominions In the
Kmpire;
2—Recognize Dominion autonomy,
not only in purely domestic matters
but also ln questions of forrlKn policy
primarfly  concerning such Dominion.
The premiers' committee of the Im
perlal conference has not yet concluded
its work, and some changes may yet be
made in the statement outlined above.
Among the Canadian delegation tonight there was evidence of a feeling
of satisfaction at the way things are
progressing at the Imperial conference.
It ls fit-It that when the result of
the long deliberations of the premiers'
committee is made public it will be received  with  general satisfaction.
The constitutional statement will be
In the form of a report from the premiers' committee and goes into the
various problems In detail.
The attitude of the dominions in regard to acceptance of the Locarno
treaties, it is understood, is coming up
for further revision. The situation as
It stands is that the draft resolution,
which has not yet adopted, recognises
the Locarno spirit and approves the ef-
fqrts of Sir Austen Chamberlain to promote peace through the Locarno treaties, but does not mak«- a pronouuee-
■ ment In favor of acceptance by the dominions.
LONDON, Nov. 17.—Allen Upward,
well known English -barrister and
author, is reported by the Daily Express to have been shot through the
heart  at   his   residence  at   Vcrwood.
Mr. Upward had suffered period -
leal attacks of severe depression, but
continued at his literary work. For
a reason which never was publicly
explained he had disappeared from
publicity for a number of years.
Only a few weeks ago a new novel
written by Mr. Upward appeared.
This was written at the request of
his publisher after his novel, "The
Domino Club,1' was pronounced a
success.
Notwithstanding the praisfe {bestowed on "The Domino Club" by
rt viewer s and demands for film
and dramatic rights, Upward, for
sonio unaccountable reason, decided
that he  had  failed.
Wished Series
It is tragic coincidence, the Kx-
pross says, that the very moment an
American publisher was asking for
a series of books with the same
central charcter as "The Domino
Club," which was published in
America under tbe title of "The Club
of   Masks."
Among Mr. Upward's papers was
found a letter to his agent saying
that he felt "The Domino Club" was
not done well enough to encoui-age
the   publishers  to  take  up  his  work.
For years In semi-retirement, Upward carried on his literary activities
at a rapid pace, wilting poetry, detective talus and anthropological'
works.    At  one  tlnu*.  he  devoted   his
IS

business.
The French franc was up 7 polntg In

against yesterday's closing of I.Wc.

expert financiers believed, the franc

STEEL DIRECTORS PLAN
TO SPRING DIVIDEND
NRW YORK, Nov. 17. — Wall street
hears that steel directors plan a surprise for stockholders. A special meeting is to be called before the regular
January dividend meeting nnd ?5 extra
cash may be voted on common shares.
Furthermore a distribution may not interfere with the anticipatM melon rutting next year, which will probably
take the form of a stock dividend or
spltup. Earnings this year probably
will exceed 317 a share, leaving a surplus after regular $7 dividend of at
least $10. A $6 extra would require hut
half these surplus profits nf a single
year. Current operations are running
at highly satisfactory rate of SR per
cent, and demand for railroad equipment and rails is weekly gathering momentum, and probably by the time railroad orders are satisfied the regular
steel buying by the automobile trade
will have reappeared in the early spring
months.

NEW TORK, Nov. 17. — Col. Leonard Ayres economist for the Cleveland
Trust company, say* In part: The
prospects are that business will be
somewhat slower ln 1927 than it has
been in 1926. Perhaps it Is probable
that the general business of the coming
year will bear Rome such relation to
this year as tho business of 1924 to
that of 1923. If this should be the case
the comfng year would be one or somewhat small profits decreased Industrial
production rather -smaller automobile
output and less building. There would
be no wave of insolvencies or no serious unemployment and no general reduction of dividends.

Votes of Thanks Conclude the
Sessions   of   the
Institutes
Three resolutions which came before the delegates of 20 Women's institutes of the Kootenays, In annual district conference, were passed
unanimougly yesterday. Three of
them had been discussed in the individual Institutes before the conference and needed no discussion.
"That this conference pro teat
against the celebration of Armistice
day on Thanksgiving day, and that
Armistice day should always be kept
on Its proper day, November ll/*
was tbe substance of the first resolution.
A_W Annual Conferences
Tho second resolution Wftg that a
district conference should be held
annually, and that the government
should be asked to finance the conference on alternate years, the other
years being financed by assessment
of members. The government finances  the  provincial  conference.
It ls necessary *•**■"(l»" at least 12 to
join the home nursing classes, operated by the Canadian Red Cross society under the auspices of local
women's Institutes, before a class
can be established. The nleetlng
asked that the minimum number
should be reduced from 12 to eight,
even If the fees had to be advanced.
This is to help Bmall Institutes, where
it has been found difficult to get
12 to join the classes.      m
Mrs. C. «M. McHardy of Nelson,
past, president of the district organization, was tendered a vote of
thanks for the work Bhe had done,
and was extended the best wishes
of  the   conference.

CHIJjRAN CABINET QUITS
SANTIAGO, Nov. 17.—The Chilean
cabinet headed by Maximtliano Ib-

TORONTO, Nov. 17.—Resolution
repudiating the "propaganda carried
on by those interested in the return
of ;the freer sale of liquor which
has represented the young people of
this province in most unfortunate
terms," and calling for wholehearted
support of the Ontario Temperance
act, were the tnngible results of three
meetings held here tonight which
7000 young people from Toronto and
district attended.
Passing of the resolution followed
addresses by several young men and
women prominent in university and
other circles. At each meeting the
speakers stressed the contention that
young people were not going to the
bow-wows, as some people thought,
but were progressing along the right
lines. Statements alleged to have
been made by those ln favor of
amendment of the Ontario Temper-
nnce act regarding the carrying nf
hip flasks by the younger set were
branded as false and» particular exception was taken to a declaration
said to have been made by Premier
Ferguson  at  Oroito,   Ont.
Thla statement, following the mak
ing of which tonight's meetings were
organized, was reported as follows
'Twenty five years ago a girl would
hardly speak to a young fellow who
tiled to carry a flask, but now they
will hardly speak to him unless he
does."
