time lsst week. That the murderer
knew the house seems probable. Mr.
Midgley, it Is surmised from the peth
the bullet took through His bedy.
waa asleep In hie bed in the room
labeled "death room.'' The murderer
tt le thought entered tiff unlocked
kitchen door "A", crossed the kitchen
and passed through door "B". Passing through tbe linn* room the killer
likely .topped at Mr. Mldgley's bedroom   door,   -0,"   and   shot   diagonally
across the g by 10 bedroom st the
sleeping man In the bed there. The
window shown In the bedroom wsa not
open snd Is screened. Following the
murder the victim wsa dragged throruth
the house and out the kitchen' dpor,
Prom there it was dragged sbout 100
yards to a bosutouee on Kootciwy
river, weighted down and throw overboard. The table In the kitchen bore a
note: "Down et boat over bluff." This
Is thought to have been a message left
by Mr. Midgley for visitors to his
ranch seeking him. It Is not thought
to have bearing on the mystery.

Thomas Mid|{lcv. Kootenay Flats rancher, murdered dur-
Ina last week ut htn'ranrh home, died instantly in his b«d
after beini; shot throui-h the heart with a millet from a
Inch powered rifle or revolver. His body was then dragged
from the dwelling ahont inn yards, taken onto a boat house
here, weighted down and dropped into the Kootenay river
in about .'!() feet of water. This is the evidence adducted so
far in the murder mystery that has startled the Kootenay
district. Motive of the crime so far is unkown. but evi-
denee seems to show that it may have been revenge or the
result of a grudge against the well known and popular
pioneer  Kuettnav ranchman.
I'rovinciiil police hi'iiirtri by Inspector W. K. Uunwoody
worked on the baffl'ni> case Saturday and Sunday and are
slill at the scene of the shooting, delving into every poxMiblr

crimes committed in the Kootenav district.

Wednesday afternoon next
That Mr. i-tridgley did aot know of an Intruder in his houae
wlun he retired one oisht laat week, probabl) Monday or Tuesday, soi'iiis borne out in evidence seen rod when the autopSr** was
performed. The bullet causing hi* death waa from n high

The bullet entered hia body through the right aide at tha
ninth rib, pwwed throngh the heart and lungs, and ipSdi its
axil on the lef* eheat bet*'«er Iho third and fourth rib. It

spine and his side in entering his body and took an upward
course emerging on the front right chest, a few inches, below
■the shoulder. \t the point of entry the bullet, likely a soft-
nosed type, made a clean hole probably five-eighths of an inch
•Cross. The hole was surroiiiided by ;. dark circle, but signs of
powder marks were (titrroai negligible. Leaving the body, the
bullet, splintered by its passage through the ribs left a small

ITALY ABOLISHES
TIPPING SYSTEM
ROME. April 7.—Tipping has been
abolished In Italy and all Hotel* and
boarding houses are compelled to put
up notices ln four languages to Inform
their guests of the fact. In place of
tips a sum representing a percentage
of the total—10 to 15 p.c—1» added to
the guests' bill and la divided among
the staff of the hotel.
The ohsngt has been brought about
by an agreement on conditions of
work and wages ln the hotel Industry
recently concluded between the Italian
hotel keepers" association and the hotel
workers trade union.
A noteworthy feature of the agreement Is tbs system ot apportionment
of the sums received in lieu of tips
among tbs various categories of hotel
servant*. All hotel workers are now
divided Into two main classes—the
"visible" or those who come in direct
contrect with the guesU' and the
"Invisible" or those whose duties are
more impersonal and are confined to
such secluded places as the kitchen.
The visible workers receive 88 per
cent on the shareoui and the Invisible
the remaining 12 per cent. In each
category the amount each indlvual
worker receives depends on the number
of "pomts" which he or she holds
and whloh are apportioned according
to the class of work performed. A head
waiter tn ths restaurant, for example
ts entitled to 30 polnta, and an assistant head waiter 14, while an ordinary
waiter gets 9, Salaries are received
ln addition. At one hotel the total
amount for one 10-day period runs
In the neighborhood of 13000 and the
Individual point Is worth about 1500.
So at this hotel the head waltor with
his 30 points got about $100 for ten
days in addition to his salary.

The strategy of flexlcan rebels is now

see opportunities to do things

give to the conduct of business
the unexpected and unusual to
create new obstacles and ha-
zardsr and bring rewards far
beyond the wildest dreams of

These rewards are usually
money, but the money does not
all go into the pockets of the
small group which controls the
business. It is divided up
among stockholders. The public supply both the market and
they money, and are partners
in enterprise just as each man
of the crew of a whaler had a
"lay" in the harvest of sperm
oil. Business may not be the
noblest pursuit, but it is true
that men are bringing to it
some of the qualities which actuate the explorer, scientist
and artist—the zest, the open-
mindednesa, even the disinterestedness with which the scientific investigator explores some
field of pure research. Business has become a profession.
Its ethical standards are higher, its knowledge broader, and
its problems appeal to the professional mind. Its routine,
once the sole concern of business men, is now no more to
it than the routine of a hospital
to a surgeon, or the routine
of a law court to a barrister.
It profits after a comfortable
living in aaaured are merely
the counters that register the
success of the effort.

of the lining ligaments of the knee
Joint that had become d.itached. the
percentage of successes from operation
were less thsn fifty.
Tou csn readily understand then that
It wss hardly Justifiable to perhaps
give a man an absolutely stiff ot nor.-
bendsble knee In exchange for * knee
thst was perfectly useful a good portion of the time.
However, th. war taught ua s number
of things snd one was that with careful, clean skilful surgery, most of these
ease, could be operated upon and
perfect   results  obtained
Dr. R. Morten of Lepalg report, the
result* of forty-four cut. of Internal
derangements of the knee, is mentioned .bon, and good results were obtained ln thirty-*!* cases; poor results  ln  eight.
This means that results were successful In 8a per cent of the cases.
Now when you renumber that meat
of thsse cases w*re of long duration,
two to ten yesrs. with an average of
five yesrs, ana that all the patients
were In bad shape snd unable to
work, and compare It with the results
obtained ln all cases previously, thst
la 50 per oent, you can see 1 ow
great are tbe stride* th.t isve been
msde.
Further, none of the patients with
similar conditions who refused operation, msd* sny progress for the better.
My thought then is thst If you have
a "trick" knee that "gives out" on
you frequently, csuslng you to lay
up tor days or weeks at a time; or
If you have a knee that prevents ycu
using It st all. then talk It over with
your doctor and  ask  him about  the
results that an now being obtained by
operation In these

FOR FINISHING INTERIORS
Modern paneled walls are inexpensively practical
with Beaver Board. A few panels, neatly finished
with panel strips, make waste space useful. Easy
to decorate. Vamish-iixed surface laves a priming

Insulate floors, wall* and roof with Beaver Insulating

with comfort as a cost-free dividend on your investment.
Double-strength Beaver Insulating Board is twice as
rigid (but not brittle) as ordinary insulating board. Five-

grip, keeps each board flat, provides better insulation, assures
a smooth surface for decoration.

to make an attractive set-up, so that purchasers of tickets from our customers will
receive a good impression of the dance or

It's only a little thing, but nevertheless
quite important. Possibly it is one reason
that we print so many tickets every month.

To Our Clients:
As you are quite aware durinf- the very speculative a ti :i of the
stock markets in recent months, we have been continually imp*«m:nii
upon our clients the importance of a conservative attitude in regard to
their operations. In our market letter dated March 23rd, just previous
to the drastic reaction in stock markets generally, we made the iol'ow-
it.g ; tatement:
"Our considered opinion is that a very'substantial portion
oi the investors' lesources at the present time should be diverted to bonds of the most conservative type, and that in every
case profit-taking in the stock market should be-accompanied by
investment of this character."
We also strongly advised our clients to liquidate enough of their
holdings to put themselves in the position of speculating only with their
profits.
That our general conservative policy and our advice in this particular instance were correct is very amply evidenced by the fact that out of
the hvge clientele served by our Head Office, our four branches and our
t!i.rly-two correspondents in British Columbia, we were compelled to
ell out only one client
We venture to make the claim that no other house of any size engaged n a similar business in Western Canada can give evidence of
such thorough protection of their client's interests. This is made pos-
ni'le only by the close personal attention given to individual accounts
bj the principals of our house, whereby we'are enabled to deal with the
problems of each individual case without the handicap of arbitrary and
automatic restrictions imposed by a head office in New York or other
Eastern points.
The very large increase in stock exchange transactions, both on
Vancouver and outside exchanges, has placed a very great strain on our
trading and office organization, as well as on the head offices of the
various companies whose securities are dealt in. We have had great
difficulty in securing delivery of stock certificates, owing principally to
the very conjested condition of transfer offices, and some unavoidable
delay it experienced in this connection. We can, however, assure you
that so far as our own organization is concerned, every detail of the
transactions which we have undertaken for you is completely up-to-date
and in order.
We feel that you will appreciate the very pardonable pride which we
take in our record of service to our clients during the past few months
which have been trying in more respects than one, and would assure
you again that our policy is to interpret our duties as your broker in the
most generous and broadest way possible.
May we again express our great appreciation of the business which
you have entrusted to us from time to time and assure you that our very
best endeavors are at your service at all times.
Yourt Very Truly

school girls had it all over their opponents, and were trestlng the spe-
tators to some clever play. From the
toss-up Klmherley girls started right
off, snd following combination work
K, Anderson got under the basket snd
brought the eooVes level. The same
player put the locals ln the lead with
another good shot shortly after, to be
followed by another by D. Oliver, who
shot a beauty from center, snd before
the period ended S, Patience added another, the half time score being Nelson, 4;   Klmberley,  10.
KIMBFRLKV  Ct ARIHANs    .OOD
Resuming play after Net, the third
10 minutes was fought out at a fast
pace with the Kelson girls having just
as much of the plsy, snd led by li.
Archibald they were continually around
the basket but the public school guards
were checking close and did not give
them much scope to score, most of their
shots being from the sides. However,
Miss Archibald was rewarded for her
clever work when she finally scored with
s dandy shot. This success wsa brief,
ss the Klmberley girls fought right
back snd V. Almas got the prettiest basket of the evening from center, the
ball sailing clean into the net. Nelson
then were awarded a free shot and Miss
Archibald again netted.
The last period the fast pace previously set slackened a trifle, but the
game never got listless. Klmberley always seemed to have s little In reserve,
and despite strenuous efforts of the
Nelson forwards to cut down the lead,
they found the public school rear guard
a hard couple to pass, and although
shooting often the shots were not accurate, being mostly of the long variety.
The Klmberley girls cut loose clever
team play ln the last flvr minutes nnd
scored four more points through D.
Oliver and V. Almas, while holding the
Nelson girls scoreless, the final score
reading  Nelson, B;  Klmberley,  16.
Nelson girls played a good game,
with Mlas Archibald the outstanding
player, but they found tbe Klmberley
team right on top form. The public
school girls sre an evenly matched aggregation and are now showing the
result of clever coaching by F. J. Mar-
tello, who has had charge of the team
all sesson and feels particularly proud
of them.
THE LINEUP:
The teams were as follows:
Nelson—J. Young (SO, I. Oughtred. 8
Boomer (3). O. Hall, J. Mellnectsuk, M

Klmberley—K. Anderson <*), D. Oliver (6). D. Nesbttt, 8. Patience (3). V.

Following the game, the visiting girls

snd were well pleased with the splendid
manner they had been entertained during their short stsy in Klmberley.

WISHES TO START
JUNIOR FOOTBALL
(^respondent    Says    Juniors
Want   to  Get  Seasons
Started Early
Sports  Editor:
Sir—Writing on behalf of the Nelson
Junior footballers I would like to stir
the spirit of our senior associates. For
the last three weeks the boys hsve
picked the teams, signed up the players
and awslt the league to commence'.
Even thcugh our grrtunds are not ln
first class condition we believe are
quite suitable to play on. We also believe In beginning the football season
as early as possible for the simple
reason for a good many years previous
we have not been able to fiuii.li the
league property. Last season, for instance, the league ended in July or
June. Owing to the tremendous heat
that we have at that time of the yesr
swimming tempted the footballers and
at the game, at that time each team
was represented by four or five players. The seniors have started and why
not the* Juniors. The belief is. If junior members were given more attention, they could defend the good name
of  Nelson   ln   years   to  come.

fTlHE purchase of an Oldsmobile
***-- is in itself a tribute to your individuality . . indicating an appreciation of the finer points of
automobile quality.
For, although the finer Oldsmobile
possesses a host of features (mechanical and structural) which
distinguish it from all other cars
in its price-range, it also possesses
a distinction which marks it as one
of the world's fine cars, regardless
of size or price.
Oldsmobile
^"^ PRODUCT   OF   GENDRAL   MOTORS   OP   CANADA,   LIMITED
In fact, so pronounced is its air of
prestige, that thousands of people
who have seen it, and perhaps ridden in it, have no idea how astonishingly low is its price.
We will be pleased to show you
the many exclusive features of the
finer Oldsmobile and to arrange
for a trial ride. Then you will
realize that no other cat so low in
price offers such a comprehensive
and balanced array of truly fine-
car features . . and that there is a
sound basis of value underlying
Oldsmobile prestige.

offered at auction early this summer
and It stems to be taken for granted
that it la hardly likely to fall to an
English purchaser. The bidding may
easily go to a half a million dollars.
The Portland family bare lent to the
Brltleh museum since 1810. In 1770
Sir William Hamilton. England's representative in Rome, obtained It for 1000
guineas, the vase having long been in
tie Berberlnl pallce. Bringing tbe va.no
to Btagland, Sir William sold It to the
then Duchess of Portland, and It vat
tent to the Brltlnh museum.
The vase waa smashed by a madman
ln 1846, but waa restored, by expert m
and has been specially protected shire
Experts have expressed the opinion
thst it belonged to the first century
of the Roman Empire, and specimen*
found at Pompeii have supported their
con ten Lion.
The Duke of Portland offers no explanation why be wishes now to see the
vase, declaring It Is a private matter.
Ho doubt an agitation will be aroused
towards saving the vase for Oreat
Britain, but there seems some doubt
If such a project will be actively supported by any of the big funds instituted for this treasure, in Jeopardy

"Now I find it easy to have soft, pretty
hands, in spite of dishes to do three times a
day. I discovered that by using Lux for all
my dishwashing, my hands never became
rough or red or chapped-looking. With Lux,
they were even WHITER and softer after
washing dishes than before!"
The instant, magical suds are SOOTHING
to even the most sensitive skin.* Lux is
made by a marvelous special process—made
whiter and thinner and purer than anything
else. There is no trace of harmful alkali in
Lux, nothing to dry up, to coarsen the skin,
as there is in ordinary soaps—whether flakes,
chips or cakes.
And Lux costs so LITTLE! In one of the
big packages there is enough Lux for 6 weeks'
dishes!   So little to pay for beautiful hands!

"All right." he enswered, ss the colo.

he looked sharply at both his companions, "It t stay rm Uabl. to catch

With that h. rose snd turned quickly
away, walking briskly across the dance
floor. Lola and Lefty Weln witched him
thread hla way through the clogged.
narrow space In front of the bar.
Without looking back. Spike reached the
front door, opened It and psssed
through to the street.
Outside he looked frantically for s
c'sb but there were none In sight He
ran out In the middle of the street
and continued on down In the direction
from which he had driven up. a half
hour before. Finally, two blocks down
hs hailed I chance night cruiser, leaped

The driver gave a faint salute and
got oft to s flying start in second. He
turned the next corner to the left st
thirty-five miles an hour while Spike
renamed off tbe sides of the back
seat snd wiped the perspiration from
his  face.
"Maybe I'm a Bap," he reflected excitedly, "and maybe I'm not. R's a

the chance that th. does' thin hang

Spike reasoned thst the story of his
contact with the Montee woman would
definitely turn Jean against her After
all, he knew thst tbe murder wssn't

and how the realisation of his pulsing

since he realised her helplessness at '

wonderful embrace had been with him
all day. And now she might be in

Just nine minutes after he had
Jumped tn, the cab came to a violent
stop ln front of the Elton Oarage, Spike
threw a ten dollar bill at the bewildered chauffeur, flung open the door and
ran Inside. Rushing up to a pay phone
he slid in a quarter and barked Jean's
number . . . there was a long wait . . .
then central', damning dulcet "they
don't answer."
The quarter came out and Spike
pushed it in again. Thl» tun* he aaked

'[''HEY were a lot of fun when we were youngsters, those
I guessing games. Guess who this is! Guess the number of
beans in the pot! Guess how long the pendulum will swing!
Sometimes we came pretty close to the right answer. Sometimes
we were a long way off. Whichever we were, we all had a
good time, and the worst guesser got as much of the evening's
refreshments as the best.
How far away those guessing games seem now! And how
they have lost their appeal. Perhaps it's because we learned,
as we grew older, that to know is better than to guess. Guess
which is the best package on he grocer's shelf Guess which
bolt of cloth is pure wool! Guess which talking machine will
give us the most satisfaction! No, guessing for those things
wasn't so much fun. We wanted to be certain. And that was
one of the reasons we turned to advertising.
Advertising takes the guesswork out of buying. It lets us
know what is best and what is cheapest and what will last
longest. It does away with unsatisfactory uncertainties. The
advertisements in this newspaper tell a concise, interesting
and accurate story about articles you need. Reading them is
the surest path to wise buying.   It eliminates guessing.

By reading the advertisements regularly, and buying advertised
goodi you take the guessing out of spending your money.

meeting Mr. Oarrett live nn address
on entomology, tracing the progress of
the three main groups ot the science,
systematic, economical and medicinal,
from lta inception In 1700 to tbe present dsy. He also explained the classifying of insects into famines, tribes,
genera and species.
Fully conversant with the wars being
waged on Insect pests ln all parts ot
the world, Mr. Oarrett did not sound
a very hopeful note with regard to th.
extermination of some ot tlie worst Iocs!
enemies, particularly that new arrival)
the potato bug. In the United states.
Mr Oarrett stated, the foremost entomologists of the world, with millions
at their disposal, had failed to check
the ravages aud  Incense  of the  pest.
Mr. Oarrett spoke also of the efforts.
;it Banff and elsewhere, to exterminate
that enemy of residents and tourists,
the mosquito. The methods used, he
explained, would let rid ot them on
low water, but with swarms breeding
lu higher and higher levels nil through
the summer and winds carrying them
tn clouds Into the valleys for many
mllea. the project hsd been found to
be   useless.
Mr. Oarrett predicted a more widespread use of gas In the extermination

his brother, Clare, who ore both licenced air pilots, aud all three approve of tlie same site, which is located
14 miles from Nelson between South
Slocan and Shoreacres, on the main
highway. This Is positively Hfce cloaest
available Isnd which meets the necessary requirements of an nlr-port. Tlie
difficulty of transportation haa been
solved by the Kootenuy \alley Transportation company, v_ch hu guaranteed bus service lo meet regular
planes.
According to the city engineer's report, the Initial cost of (t-ubliehlng the
air-port will be 135.000. The committee, however, Teel sure they can reduce this coat by approximately $4000.
by changing the present telephone line.
This estimate also Includes night lighting and signs. Such cost we understand
la borne by the Dominion government,
provided wo are on the western air
route. At present MUaon is the only
missing Unit on the f-omhercn route.
The interest on this I2S.0OQ would be
taken care of by tat landing, hangar
and service fees, which amount to
considerable.
As mentioned before, Neiaon Is the
only missing link on the southern sir
route. 8he must detail- whether she
will be a part or thin route or not,—if
not, we are definitely out of It. It Is
up to the cttlscns to deride. We can
bt a part lor approximately $30,000.
Spokane, Seattle. Vnnonivcr, Calgary,
Winnipeg and other wwtern cities have
each voted a quarter nf ■ million dollars for air-ports. Therefore, we do not
feel that we are requesting tht cltlaens
of Nelson to waste then money when
we ask them to vole 1*10,000 for an
air-port.
Wc have been assure" that the Oreat
Western Airways, united, wUl operate
a commercial plane in tne Neison port.
This tn itseif will mmosi cover the interest on the initial investment. Then
when you stop to consider tht numorr
of mining men and tourist flyers who
will come to Neison. could wt accommodate them, yon uin readily ate to
what extern Neison would benefit

At 11:30 Saturday morning tha approach of the long awaited naval plane
was hesralded by the roar ot a power,
ful motor. In a few momenta the
plane was located coming in from th.
weet .nd clrollng the city In order to
p'ck up th. landing marks which hid
heen placed on the lake. Sweeping
down ln a long graceful curve the
big monoplane skipped ou the water
and finally settled bsck slowly, rocking
in the wind.
The machine, a Fairchild monoplane
powered by a 430 h. p. P-att-Whltncy
Wasp motor, was piloted by Plight-
Ueutenant Morfee and carried two
passengers, Sergeant Warner and Corporal Caraway also of the at) force.
On Friday the plan* made tbe flrat
half of the flight to Kelowna where
It was forced down on account ot
poor visibility snd continued at 0:30
am. the following day by way of
Vernon. Mabel and Sugar lakes, Nakusp, Slocan lake and thence to Mel-
son, where It landed at 11:10.
HOOD   I'LYINO   l oMiimiNs
Fairly good flying conditions were
reported by the pilot eicopt for" th.
few clouds which were encountered, at
13000 feet .nd th. alight bunvplkicsa
ol  the  air.
Th. monoplane, a four passenger
machine, was used last year by the
department of Interior In a topograpM-
eel aurvey and on thla partlcul.r occasion Is working on behalf :•; the
department of public works In an
aerlsl survey of waterway-..
One of the most economical tictors
ln tho hsnds of the civilisation Is the
airplane and, In thla psrlioulsr cue
is saving time and money thst It
would cost In locating depths and
shallows by the old Bounding methods.
From certain heights aerU photographs show clearly the position of
deep and shallow waters. It is for
this purpose tlist the plan, hss teen
detailed  to  thla  district.
According to the pilot the wo;k can
be accomplished In three days If th*
stmospherlc conditions prove suitable
Photographs are taken from sn altitude in the vicinity of 13.0M) feet ard
the sky must be clear ln order thrt
the work be successful, thus there It
no telling how long the plane will be
here before the work is cir.ipl.t*.
On Saturday numbers of people went
out to the park where the plane
was moored to look over the aerial
visitor snd were struck by the clean
lines of the naval plan! with Its narrow fustlsge and long wings resting In
the wster like a giant gull. Fllcht-
Lleutensnt llorfee wu an observsr In
