SCHOOL FINANCE On school finance President Reld said: "The union has for some years been asking for relief In the matter of school expenditures, or for a change In the method of school finance. Vour executive reaffirmed its request that a special rate be levied on all persons ln receipt of an Income, for educational purposes only. The financial Burden in connection with the educational system irj British Columbia Is without doubt getting heavier every year. Many municipalities show an increase in taxation for school purposes this year, adding an even greater burden than before on the land. The union would do well, tn my opinion, to keep after this question until Bomo relief 1b given the municipalities. It ls hardly Just or fair that the land alone should have to stand the heavy burden of taxation necessary to maintain our educational - system, tha curriculum for which ts laid down by tbe province, without any control by the owner of land." KOLD1EB LANDS President Reld reported successful adjustment of the issue between the municipalities and the soldier settlement board regarding arrears of taxes on reverted lands, the board having offered lump sums consisting of the arrears plus interest accrued at 6 per cent., and the legislature having amended the municipal act so that any municipality desiring could accept such a lump adjustment. In regard to the larger Issue of the right to tax lands reverted to the board, the president stated the position was unchanged, the board, while willing to pav taxes on lands rented, refusing to admit the liability of the lands lo taxation, claiming they were crown lands. Appeal to Premier King, Hon. J. H. King, minister of soldiers civil reestablirihment, and other quarters have resulted ln some progress, he said, but the question of whether the lands were or were not crown lands would either have to be settled by a test case brought about by tax sale proceedings, or the municipalities would have to accept the ruling of the department of Justice. The president suggested that a change should be considered in the Poll Tax act. whereby the husband of a woman owning property in a municipality would bc exempt. VVHU.S OF RF.UIU.T On opening of the session, President Reld read a wire from Premier Tolmie regretting that necessity made lt impossible for him to attend, stating J. H. Schofleld. M.P.P.. would repre- en the government, and wishing the organization every success in its deliberations. He stated he had letters from Hon, H. R. Pooley, attorney-general and Hon. Nels Lougheed. minister of public works, also regretting their Inability to attend but expressing hearty good will. Mayor Herbert Clark welcomed the delegates to Trail, stating he was "honored and pleased" that Trail's invitation to the organization had been so widely accepted. Referring to the tour of the plants of the Consolidates Mining & Smelting company of Canada made by the delegates in the forenoon, he declared there were openings for further Industries in Trail, for which markets could be developed, without going much beyond the dlty limits. WOOIlHIIlF, KFPL1FS Alderman Frank E. Woodslde of Vancouver, who came to Trail creek 32 years ago by boat from thc American side, replied to the welcome ln a characteristic flowery speech, which dwelt on the fact that the Kootenay developed from this point, to the early history of Rossiand, "golden city of the west", to the vast accomplishments of the Consolidated company, to Trail's expansion and present progressive spirit, and to Its great future. Alderman Woodslde declared that there DOUGLAS HOTEL S. L. AMI A. (IBOl'TAOE, Props. Our Hosiery Distributors Supply us only with First Quality Hosiery.

The credentials committee reported 10S accredited delegt*es seated, representing 47 municipalities, both figures being records. PHILIP SPEAKS One address was given during the afternoon, P. Philip, deputy minister of public works, dealing flrat with highway classification. He pointed out that the government bore 75 per cent of the coat of primary highway* and entirely controlled their construction, while the municipalities entirely controlled the secondary, the government having nothing to do with the third class. The present act called for a tremendous amount of cooperation between the parties. There was a trepd for municipalities to contend that all roads should be primary highways. NOT KFAsOV.ISM. Mr. Philip noted that a Oood Roads speaker Tuesday waa opposed to heavy trucks, but the larger vehicles had come to stay, and their problem must be dealt with. However, on driving near Salmo Tuesday, he passed a track carrying 27 poles, and hauling a trailer carrying 50, over a harrow roftd, whose users had to slip into tne woods Co let lt pass. This certainly was not reasonable use. He urged municipalities to plan well ahead, and get their requests for highway classification ln before the fiscal year instead of In mid-year. He also asked the municipalities to remember that entirely outside their boundaries the government had almost a staggering mileage of roads to keep up out of the provincial exchequer. The deputy minister asked the municipalities to believe that the new minister had the utmost sympathy with their road problems and with their desire to raise their roads to the highest standard. (Applause). Municipalities Ask Government to Take Action (Continued From Pan One.) Porks had come to the union to get a change ln the water act. and had obtained it. It then fought this matter for wo years, exhausting ever? avenue of approach, getting excellent law, and spending 14000 though only a small municipality. The net result was to comnletelv prove that tthe Water act was inade- ouate for the purpose of controlling the power situation. All O-.ind Por,ks had asked for, and all that it was asking for now. was the appointment of a court of appeal where it cou'd g**t reeress. Orand Forks, he said, probably used more of the company's "Juice" than any other point except Trail, and yet it ■ was' paying four times the rate charged it In the days of heavy consumption. After the last raise, it had called quits, and gone to the mat with the power company. HFNEF1TS TO ALL He believed that every municipality in the province, not excepting Vancouver, would benefit by the setting up of such a body as proposed. "If a certain company wishes to cut off our light, we can do nothing about it, we have absolutely nowhere where we can get regress," Mayor Love said. The company did not own this resource. It came to the people and got a charter. It harnessed it. "We don't wish to hu^,an Industry," commented the sneaker. "We only want our rights protected." Where the original rate ln Orand Forks was one cent, it Is now two and a half cents and notice had been given of three cents. So Orand Forks thought it time to act. "It ls time we people bestirred ourselves, or we soon won't have the power to," he commented ."The time to decide this question is In our day, lt Is now. On behalf of the sons who wtll succeed us. list us settle this vital question now." (Applause.) ftCHOOL I.E*'R\TE A much discussed prnblrm of the afternoon, of how to deal with th- necessity of new revenue for school purpose^, was settled ft nitrht bv *he unanimous passage of the following resolution. "Whereas this union from time to time made requests on thi* nrovLn- clal government to llahten the burden of education «non the oronert" owners ♦brouRhout the nrovlnce. either bv taking over the orjerntinn or the schoo' system, or by broadening thc base of taxation; "Now. therefore, be It resolved that this union reaffirms Its rpnuest to the government to take over thp operation of the schools of the nrovince, or to hrinK into force the **comm»nri«*,tlon« of th* Putman and Weir rwnort nnd that tbe executive of the union b*» Instructed, owing to the urgency of the situation, to press for such legislation."

Mfember Audit Bnrrao of Circulation THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13. 1836 Let's Think and Act as British Columbians The Lighter Side Every once in a while we hear criticism of coast public men as being "hogs". They are charged with wanting to grab everything for the coast. On the other hand we in the jipper country are sometimes criticized by coast people on the ground that we are parochial. No doubt the coast people don't intend to give any ground for the allegation that they are trying to hog everything, nor do we wish to be parochial. Both coast and interior wish to work in the interests of the province as a whole. But really the coast people ought to be a little more careful.' Appointment of committees at the Good Roads league at Trail was a case in point. When the committees were announced interior delegates were astonished to note that on this important committee not a single member residing east of Vernon was named. Only when a trail delegate called attention to- the matter was one interior man appointed. The neglect of the interior waa not, of course, intentional, but it did indicate that occasionally our coast friends forget .MR the interior has some rights as well as the responsibility for paying a very large percentage of the total taxation of British Columbia.

Enterprise Stock Changes Unfavorable to This Stockholder The Editor of The Dally Newa Sir:—The writer was surprised to read ln thia morning's paper an account of a meeting to be held on Saturday of the Enterprise Consolidated Mining company for the purpose ot changing the- par value of the shares from 20c to SOc and also for the purpose of changing the name of the company. Last march the writer, together with probably many thousands of others, bought a block of stock ln this company, paying 28c per share, the price lt was put on the market, and now It seems as If the promoters have some] Corp.

ACTION TO COLLECT INSURANCE NOTE IS D1SM1SSEDIN COURT Ward Being Under Age* Note For Balance Premium Is Not Collectable The Conservative committee selected William Irvine to be chairman and D. C. Morris to be secretary of the campaign committee in Lhe coming federal election. TEN YEARS AGO (The Dally News. September 13, 1918) C. Walley, son of Mr. T. Walley, has been give ua one share for each 21. shares' awarded the Military medal according Ross Fleming's suit to collect a note for M0.6S given him by George Ward wu dismissed in county court here yesterday when Judge W. A. Nlabet held that the note 'was not collectable. Mr. Ward being under legal age. H. Clifford Irving acted for Mr. Fleming, and E. P. Dawson, of Brown & Dawson for Mr. Ward. The plaintiff set out that he, - the S -te a agent for U>e Sun Life Insurance company, wrote a policy for Mr. Ward He paid the premium, $50.65. himself, und accepted (10. cash and a note for *40.65 from Mr. Ward. He Bought to collect the remainder due. Mr. Dawson's defence was that his client, belni under legal age, could not legally sign a note. we hold and probably wipe off the 20c over and above the par value we paid for our stock. There Beems to be no Just reason for any such change excepting tor a possible increase in stock ln the very near future, ln a way similar to which these promoters increased the capital stock ln the Kootenay Florence mines. It Is only a few weeks ago that the paper stated that this company had dropped one of the most promising mines which they so widely advertised when first promoting this company, that is, the dropping the Enterprise mine as well. Though the writer purchased a thousand shares of the atock ln this company from them laat March he hus not received a notice of the meeting mentioned and lt would hardly seem as lf any of the thousands of shares holders are expected to be present at the meeting as lt Is called In the lawyers' office, which could hold only very few at the most. Everything may probably be explained satisfactorily, but the small holders of stock should know and have an opportunity of expressing their views and not be handled ln a way like they were when the Kootenay Florence stock was doubled, nor should they be asked to drop quite a fair amount of their original Investment (as mentioned above) without some real cause. Personalty I think matters of this kind should be thoroughly discussed and not left to a few to railroad through, if to information received by his parents. * • * Born to Mr. and Mrs. Charles Freed on September 12, a daughter. * • * Mr. and Mrs. J.

X-Ray and Facial Eruptions There are so many of our young men and women who are tormented by the facial blemish called pimples or acne, that I feel tt my duty to hand on any encouraging results that are being obtained in their treatment. These facial blemishes often affect the whole outlook and career of the sufferer. A few months ago I spoke of Dr. Webb's suggestions, which included the avotdence of pastry, freah bread, raw fruits, tomatoes, pork, veal, hard boiled aggs, oatmeal and fried meats. Then the blackheada and contents of each pimple were removed by the little Instrument sold ln drugstores for the purpose, and the part washed with an antiseptic mercury soap. A course of x-ray treatments follow to prevent the accumulation of the waxy or cheesy substance ln the little glands. Just how effective these x-ray treatments can be, hu been shown by Dr. J. C. Michael of Houston, Texaa. who gives us the results In nearly two hundred cases. More than half of theae cases were cured by one course of treatment; twelve per cent, were greatly improved, and thirty-five per cent, had relapses. Failure to get rid of the ailment completely with one course of treat' ment (ten or more occured In twenty four instances. Twenty of theae patients later reported that the ailment disappeared after the treatment wm discontinued. In no Instance of the entfre number of cases treated (nearly two hundred) has any permanent ill effect of the x-ray been seen. The average number of treatments In the first course wm twelve, and ln the second course the average number wm five. Theae are truly encouraging results and the individual whose life hu been embittered by this distressing ailment can certainly look forward to a cure or considerable Improvement ln his condition. Tbe use of this treatment ln this condition only serves to remind ua how great has been the advance ln the knowledge of the effects of the x-ray. Tour doctor will tell you of physicians who have lost hands, arms, even their Uvea from ths "burning" effect of these powerful rays. And yet today, with our greater knowledge, thej* are of wonderful benefit to mankind ln the treatment of skin conditions Including even cancer. *S&.

It was th< most delightful combi nation of office and kitchen imaginable —gray enamel desks, telephones and nail baskets offset by crisp curtains, plants and goldfish swimming in a bowl. Through the glass door of the oven I could tee ddicwus-emelling things bubbling away. But what the head of this kitchen- laboratory aaid kit-rested me even more than her workshop, "Bottled milk 1" she exdaimed,'' I haven't a drop in the place. Hon* in the world would I manage if t depended on bottled milk? Probably about four o'clock this afternoon someone; will dash in with a new utensil or a new flavoring for me to test. That means a rush of an sorts of cooking—we test very thoroughly. If I didn't have a shelf full of Carnation Milk, I'd be lost I'm surprised you didn't know how standard Carnation Milk is in departments such as mine, where cooking is done on a large scale and with scientific exactness." Think What You're Misting Are you one of the women who still keep Carnation Milk simply for"emer- gency" use, or for certain choice recipes that you have discovered are mar- velously better when made with Carnation? Think how much convenience you misa. Carnation Milk is just as wonderful for all cooking._ and it's always there when you want it—in any quantity you need. Nor does it fail you—it s always pure and sweet. It's just as dependable in results, too, for Carnation is simply the purest whole milk, from exceptionally fine herds, produced under ideal conditions that insure high quality, uniformity and purity. This better milk has nothing added to it. It is merely evaporated to double richness for convenience, and sterilized for safekeeping. ■Why "Homogenization" Civ,* Sack Wondew ful Retail* Women always comment an the unusual creamy Smoothness of loe cream* in which Carnation is used, on the rich- ness of soups, the fine texture of puddings, the long-keeping quality of cakes, the creaminess o? candies ana sauces. This is due to "homogenization" by Which the cream globules are broken up into minute particles and distributed all through the milk, giving to the last drop the same double-richness that is in the firstdrop. Not only does "homogenized" Carnation enrich everything cooked with it, but it give* , a finer, smoother texture. You can't really know how much Carnation improves cookery until you have tried it lor all varieties of dishes. Won't you Bend for the Carnation Cook Book—"My Hundred Favorite Recipe*"? It's free. Address Carnation Milk Products Co., Limited, Aylmer, Ont. Use It Every Day FOR emergencies, of course, you must have Carnation. But the really wise woman is she who has found that Carnation is the most dependable daily supply- always ready, always fresh, making everything taste better.

MRS. WRIGHT COACH Mrs. Ouy Wright, who coached the team to victory last year, will again be ln charge this season. She will have practically all new material. Most of the girls who formed the team last year will not be back at the convent till about Christmas, and for that reason the school will not enter an Intermediate team. Whether or not the girl baakctcers ln Nelson wlll Join with the boys lu the Nelson Basketball association this year ls not yet known. When the season was about h%it over last year, the girls broke away and formed the Nelson Oirls' Basketball association, when the parent organization refused lo draw up a further schedule for the girls. The Convent girls wlll be organized in a week or 10 days. It ls expected a meeting of the girls' teams will be called shortly to decide whether they wlll join with the boys or whether they wlll go through the season lu* dependently. FOREST HILLS, N. Y..

BEGIN HERE TODAY MONA DARIEN is thrilled when suddenly lc lifted by a stranger at a masked hell. She becomes angry when, aa ahe removes hsr mask, the stranger apologizes, adding that he thought her to be someone else. She recognizes him as— BRUCE BERLON. fiance of her best friend— MABEL WALKER, a spoiled girl of today, who had petulantly informed Mona that Bruce would be unable to attend the ball on account of business. Mabel had threatened to cancel the engagement because of Bruce's Inability to attend. On Brace's arrival. however, ahe forgets and enthusiastically praises him to Mona and— RUTH MOREHOUSE, their mutual friend. Meantime— JOHNNIE MERRIL, who escorted corner. self a real frelnd. As they swept past tbe corner where her Inebriated lady laughed, dizzily. Mona felt the reassuring pressure of his hand. His would be a loyalty worth having. The kind of a friendship she needed. "I like to dance with you, Mona." "I like to dance with you, too," she replied. Tears smarted back of her lowered eyelids. She swallowed, painfully, over tbe lump ln hsr throat. But by the time the dance was finished she had regained ber customary poise. And Mabel's husband had kindled a warm ftre of gratitude ln her heart whloh was to be the basts of a new relationship « • • The little crowd continued Its good time regardless of the couple In the Mona to the dance, protests against her being seen so much with Dan Maclntyre, who has figured in two divorce suits.

JOHNNIE MERRILL, who escorted Mona to the dance, protests against ber being seen so much with Dan Maclntyre, who has figured ln two divorce suits. Mabel laughs at blm and dreams of Bruce. Mabel and Bruce wed, and Mabel Insists on a fine appartment near the lake. Mona suggests at party at Peacock Inn. .NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY The "crowd" accepted Mona's suggestion, Joyfully. Even Dr. Sampson, who rarely made engagements for the evening, promised to come. Bruce and Mabel drove their own small car. The others went with Johnnie. Mona had not seen him since their ride together. His manner was less friendly and much more formal than usual. She sat beside him, half-amused. half-angry, thinking how ridiculous It was for him to assume this distant attitude with a girl who had played marbles with him when they were children. Johnnie was a good looking youth. With clean cut regular features and a winsome, boyish mouth. More attractive in many ways than any man Mona knew but lacking in "finesse." Bhe could always read him like a book. She always knew what Johnnie would say next, and compared with Dan he was as intoxicating as a glass of milk. Rather ashamed of the comparison, Mona asked softly, "Mad at me, Johnnie." He replied as she had known he would, "Not at all. Why should I be mad." Mona giggled. "You know you are. You haven't telephoned this week." "I didn't suppose you'd notice it," Johnnie retorted. "I understand you haven't been lacking for attention." "Oh, no I I can always manage without any one of my boy friends, darling." Johnnie gave a vicious twist to the wheel. "That's what I thought." Ruth called from the back seat, "Do whatch where you're going, John- Die. JTm and I aren't ready to die." But Johnnie made no answer. His Ups were compressed grimly. Mona knew he was suffering and because she couldn't bear to really hurt anyone she patted his hand. "You know I miss you. You're iny oldest friend." "That doesn't seem to mean much to you any more." "Oh, but It does. I'd be lost with out you, honestly." He did not rally to her flattery. "How many others have you aaid that to?" Mona made a tiny grimace and ceased all efforts at reconciliation. Arrived at Peacock Inn, they made their way to the table Mona had reserved. The floor was already crowded. Without waiting to order, the others started to dance. Mona looked at Johnnie wtth eyes brimming with laughter. "Not going to dance with me, Johnnie?" "Certanly, if you care to, Mona" Their turn about tthe room was as coouy correct as t had once been at ciaiw.ng scnool. Mona's voice took on a poisonous sweetness. "Perhaps wed better sit down. You eeem so tired." His expression did not change. "jusi as you like." They sat in silence, watching the other couples. Mabel and Bruce danced especially well together. Almost the same neghi they seemed to sway io a single rnythm. Maoel's neavy lashes awept her cheeu, a sinue played about her parted ups. Bruce was uan.ing w.ui eyes half closed, impassively, areamuy. Jim and Ruin whined about merrily, laughing and unking. Muna wondered why men always joked anu chaptered wnen they were uancinu with Ruth. 'mere was an ill-matched couple, a gray-naired man. with a young gin uropping over ins snoulder. ner lace was vspld and silly. But there was something lanuliar about that inau.

When tne nance ended tney rt.ur_.eu to their table ln a distant cornet He was not facing Mona, but she was forced to look upon the girl's t*mpt> face. And when Bruce and Mabel returned Mona knew that Mabel, too. had seen. "Yes." "Don't you want to go home?" "Why should I go home?" Mona snapped. Bruce said, smiling, "Of course you aren't going home.

She did not recognize him so much as the flicker of an eyelaah, but a few mlnutee later she saw tbat he had gone, taking his companion with him. Gone where? For what reason? Mona had imagined hla evenings were given over to business or such strictly masculine pursuits as billiards or pool. She bad never suspected her father of the slightest desire for feminine companionship. For years he had refused all invitations to dine with friends or relatives. It was almost unbelievable that he should of his own accord seek the company of a girl almost hla own daughter's age. Johnnie dropped Jim and Ruth before taking Mona home. He had shown signs of relenting for the last hour. Signs whloh Mona had Ignored. She was too absorbed In this new problem to worry over Johnnie's attitude. When he seized her hand and said, "I was awfully sorry about tonight she replied, coldly, "Do you mean because you were rude to me?" "Not exactly. I was peeved and I had reason to be. But I waa sorry about your father." 'Keep your sympathy, Johnnie Mer- ril." "But, Mona, I'm trying to explain." "here's nothing you can explain," she retorted, angrily. "You did your best to ruin my evening on your own account." "Perhaps I did," he admitted, more humbly. "But, darling, I've been terribly hurt." "I've been hurt, too." "Do you mind when we quarrel, Mona? Honestly? "Of course, I do," she answered, feeing sorrier for herself than for htm. "You've been snapping at me like a cross old dog. And all week I've wondered why you didn't telephone." "But don't you remember," Johnnie cried, eagerly, "the blow you handed me the last time I took you riding?" Mona's eyes grew hlg. She was acting now, and rather enjoying lt. "Blow? I gave you a blow?" "You know darned well you did," "What was lt, Johnnie?" He eyed her auspiciously, suspecting her mood, but not anxious to change lt. "About kissing the other fellows." he sad. Mona laughed. "Oh, darling! And I suppose you took that seriously?" "Well, you meant It. didn't you? You certainly wouldn't say a thing like that ln fun!" "You've known me for 21 years and you ask such a question!" He seized her shoulders. "Answer yes or no. Did you mean what you said that night?" "You're hurting me. Johnnie.'* "Yes or no!" he Insisted. "No! If you weren't such a silly thing you wouldn't have believed me In the first place." His arms dropped. "I don't know whether to believe you now or not." Mona Jumped from his car and started towards the house. "Mona," he begged, "whether you meant lt or not we have to be friends." She turned, Impulsively, "I don't want to quarrel with you. It makes me very unhappy." "So unhappy you'd lie rather than hurt roe?" "Johnnie, dear • • •" "I know you would, Mona. But so long as you have lied to save my feeling I suppose I shouldn't care." "I aro going to be more careful," Mona promised. "Didn't I tell you I'd made a new resolution?" "Which Includes roe?" "It includes everyone," she answered. "But that should please you." "It does. So long as you're keeping It."" How well he understood her. Almost as well as she understood him. Mona smiled with real affection ln her farewell. But as she entered the house her smile faded. For Joshua Darlen, grimly erect, sat in the hall waiting for her.

As the child advances from public school, to high and co|lege—there is a oonWnuous increase ln eyesight defects. Further conclusions of Investigation show: Myopia (short-sighted) Is almost unknown In Infancy and very Infrequent before the beginning of school life. In early school years Its percentags is still low, and lt Is only ln advanced classes that it attains preponderance. Hypermetropla (far-sighted) ls the enormously preponderating condition in infancy and early childhood, and the first years of school life witness Uttle reduction ln Its proportion. Outside of the schools, lt remains by far the most frequent defect throughout life. Emmetropla (norma} vision) In a mathematically strict sense, has probably no existence. Approximate emmetropla is Infrequent in all ages, probably at no epoch exceeding 10 per cent. LAST TIME TONIGHT!
