"We aee a constant Increase in warlike arms," he said. "This Is a distracting dement ia which the spirit teama to have so part We •re on tha eve ol. a day $&_, ftt heaven* resound with the hymns of angel* calling tot peace on earth. "New hat a chant had more reason for being than today. '-' We wlah for peace. We bless peace. But if. in the future, there be some people possessed of a homicidal mania who wish to prepare for war, we shall have another prayer. "This prayer will be: "Destroy, 0 Lord, those who wish war.' "But we prefer our first prayer." His holiness concluded by repeating with passionate emphasis the word: "Peace!. Peace! Peace!" The voice of war, said the pontiff, is added to "aU the discomfort, pain, and real evil of the present crisis which is felt in all directions ln private and public life." He urged the world to Invoke the comforts of the Virgin Mary in these troubles. Particularly in the moment when the famous shrine at Loreto has been taken over by the Vatican under it* treaty of conciliation with Italy. The pope said he rejoiced over the success of the holy year just past ir. a moment when the world was disturbed by ao many -conflicting currents as to suggest that the justice of God might be about to descend upon mankind. He said the eucharistic congresses at Buenos Aires and Melbourne were matteri of consolation and expressed the desire that eucharistic congresses might develop evermore. Tonight the pope will avail hlmielf of an age-old privilege accorded to every parish priest only on Christma* eve. With only a few intimates in attendance he will, go to his private chapel at midnight and recite three separate masses in commemoration of the birth of the Saviour.

P. Ayres., of Montreal declared last night before boarding the liner At- cania for England. And it came to pats in those days, that thert went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. (And this toting was first made whtn Cyrenius wat governor of Syria.) And all went to b* taxed, every one into hit own And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the City of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the City of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary hit espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, whUe they wert there, the days were accomplished that the should be delivered. And she brtught forth ker first-born ton, and aerRj-pei WiiiviriiwwUJwff t_t*k*t,-andlaU himin-. a manner; because theft wat no room for them in the inn. And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto thm, Fear not: for, behold, 1 bring you good tidings-of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the City of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling -clothes, lying in a manger.- And suddenly there was, with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in Ihe highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us. And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child. And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them- by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.—St. Luke, Chap., ter 2—Verses 1 to 20.

"Where's your team Bob?" asked a Trail acquaintance. Bob lust rattled tht keys ln his side eott pocket Ht's thinking of making them rest thre hours today. Today's game between Trail and Ntlson at Trail should clear up much fog in the way of what's what in hockey for this jeaaon. The two teams meet this afternoon. Nelson's hockey fans were coasting along, indifferent for the moat part until the Maple Leafs dug into the Rossland Mlnen for two points. Now they art red hot. Trail on tht other hand hat taken three straight losses, the bitterest of them all Saturday night when they outplayed the Rossland team but got the worst of it. Trail's scoring punch has been decidedly lacking so far this year and in 180 minutes of hockey hu produced only two goals, both from the stick ot Nick Andreashuk. The Smoke Eaters were missing tht goal from clote ln Saturday night and tomt of the boys were thootlng high enough for sky rockets.

Whittles, McLeod, AtweU and Height, who played their first game together Thursday, have had their heads in I circle and should click better than ever. Haight and Atwell, both defence- men, coming through with goals, is taken as a good sign for future tallies from that end of the team.

Many of the greatest bowlers spot their spares aa well u their first ball. The ball that goes into the one-three pocket will carry the six middle pins on the alley.

The turkeys were delivered to the camps Friday, and as every camp has its ice house, presumably went at once Into storage, for manipulation as desired. From 179 to 200 pounds of turkeys was provided for etch camp, according to its atrength. As the camps average about 100 men each, there will be close to two pounds for each man, of the approximately SOO men on the West Kootenay camp rolls. MESS HUTS DECORATED Reports from the camps Monday were that the men were decorating the mess huts lavishly with ever* greens, colored paper, and other ma* terials available, and most of the camps will probably develop entertainment programs of one Kind or another. A Christmas tree has made its appearance at the group headquarters at the armory. The two-day holldty common to the province this Christmas will of course apply in the camps. NELSON BALL FHED W.

B.C. -t::: •■_:*'"• _>*_!•_.•/ mews, nelson, ex.—Tuesday morning, dec. 25. mm 'Now Do You Believe in Santa Claus" $ A MERRY, MERRY CHRISTMAS Today is Christmas day. It is a day of joy for young and for aid alike. The Kootenay district is enjoying one of the best Christmas seasons for some years. Renewed activity in lining has been a leading factor in the pickup. For when joining goes ahead other industries, likewise, spring t^nto activity. There is every reason for Kootenay people jjjo look for brighter, bigger and better things in the >ming year. _ That your Christmas may be merry is the sincere ish of the publisher and staff of The Nelson Daily liKews to its many readers! May* the new year bring h&ou added prosperity! A OLD THOUGHTS FOR CHRISTMAS k There is an efficiency of the heart that transcends e»nd contradicts that of the head, says Christopher Mor- Wey. Things of the spirit differ from things material in • that the more you give the more you have. The comedian \ has an immensely better time than the audience.' To '. modernize the adage, To give is more fun than to re- ' ceive. Especially if you have wit enough to give to those who don't expect it. Surprise is the most primitive joy of humanity. Sur • prise is the first reason for a baby's laughter. And at Christmas time, when we are all a little childish, I hope, surprise is the flavor of our keenest joys. We all remember the thrill with which we once heard, behind some closed door, the rustle and crackle of paper parcels being tied up. We knew that we were going to be surprised a delicious refinement and luxuriant seasoning of the emotion! Christmas, then, conforms to this deeper efficiency of the heart. We are not methodical in kindness; we do not "fill orders" for consignments of affection. We let our kindness ramble and explore; old forgotten friendships pop up in our minds and we mail a card to Harry Hunt of Minneapolis (from whom we have not heard for half a dozen years), just to surprise him. A business man who shipped a carload of goods to ■ a customer just to surprise him would soon perish of abuse. But no one ever refuses a shipment of kindness, for no one ever feels overstocked with it. It is coin of the realm, current everywhere. And we do not try to measure our kindnesses to the capacity of our friends. Friendship is not measurable in calories. How many times this year have you "turned" your stock of kindness? !;i$i$ rt • &_. |fHE DEPRESSION PRODUCED HARMONY It is easy to give vent to a lot of nonsense when looking for the brighter side of the depression. Nevertheless, it is becoming evident that one of the unexpected * byproducts of the last few years has been an amazing r growth in the popularity of first-rate music on this con- > tinent. Why this should be so is, perhaps, a puzzle. If there ; is something about a reduced income and a multitude of financial worries that makes people readier to listen to ' good music, it is hard to think just what it may be. The P'fact remains, however, that the number of orchestras ,'playing classic music has increased amazingly since the t stock market crash. I A writer in a recent issue of The American Mercury jL estimates that the United States alone now contains pftfrom 50 to 60 regular orchestras, of 60 to 100 members " each, which are giving regular programs of symphonic fd^music. _ These orchestras are supported in different ways. [■^Baltimore, for instance, has a symphony orchestra sup- riported entirely by the taxpayers. Newark, N. J., started .Wan orchestra with the help of the CWA last winter,' and pf^is now arranging to continue it under its own steam. 'Richmond finances a 75-piece orchestra through sale of ' season tickets and of "founderships" at $100 apiece. J In Indianapolis, on the other hand, there is a success- ',.'ful cooperative orchestra whose members prorate the W money from seat sales after expenses have been met. In A Omaha the civic symphony found that the way to success lay throughout price-cutting, and did so well at it that it had to move from its original quarters into the city auditorium, which seats 4000 people. Kalamazoo, Michigan, likewise learned that low prices pay; it has a thriving orchestra in its fourteenth season, with tickets that sell at 25 and 50 cents. No longer are fine orchestras confined to the largest . cities. Pennsylvania now contains nine symphony orchestras, not counting those in Philadelphia; New York has 12 outside of the metropolis, Florida has four, Texas has five, and Massachusetts has three, outside of Boston. Good orchestras can be found in such" cities as Huron, S.D.; Phoenix, Arizona, and Albuquerque, N.M. One reason for growth of such organizations may be that the depression has released many good musicians in the big cities. Another undoubtedly is that schools of music throughout the country have slowly but surely been laboring to raise the musical taste of the public. mm ! •*:•: c MEATS AND SALT MAY BE USED IN HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE By JAMES W. BARTON, M.D. It la unfortunite that tbe Idea baa become widespread, thst proteid foods meata, egis, milk and cheeae—ahould not be eaten by auf- .'erers with blgh blood pressure, particularly those cases where the blood vessels themselves are losing their elasticity and becoming harder. Thua we find many middle aged and old individuals on such a strict diet that they are not getting enough proteid food—meat, eggs, milk and cheese—to maintain their strength. If the body doesn't get enough proteids to supply its needs, then the actual cutting down on fat foods and starches, particularly in fat patients with high blood pressure, is considered much more important than cutting down on the proteids. If the proteid tood is cut down for any length of time it may use up much of the tissue reserves; the blood itself may become so thin as to endanger life. Further, it the blood becomes thin due to lack of meat, eggs, and other proteid foods, the Individual is much more liable to Infection * ot any kind. There may be ahort periods when • these proteids should be cut down. • due to some kidney or other condition, but an individual with high blood pressure may live many years, and to have such necessary foods reduced beyond his actual needs is really inviting trouble. Another mistaken idea Is thst red" meat is more harmful than "white" meat. There is really no: difference between the effects ot red meat and white meat It would seem that another idea— that salt is harmful in high blood pressure—Is also now being questioned by research workers; ap-. parenUy there is more evidence favoring the use of salt than there is for its non-use. The Journal of the American Medical association states that "moderate or small* amounts ot salt have.no noticeable effect upon high blood pressure." The above information should make the lives ot many sufferers less miserable as they can now use "reasonable" amounts of meat and salt CONTRACT BRIDGE By E. V. SHEPARD "Teacher of Teachers" —« A TEN-CARD PROBLEM Soutn is the declarer. The contract is tour spades. The declaring side has won the first three tricks.

LONDON CALLING By GERALD 8. REIS Last night. Christmas Eve if your radio was "hitting on all six", you may have been entertained with the usual hotch-potch of advertising sandwiched between a mediocre medley of music, including the never failing crooner - cruller moaning about the stars that shine in Ala- bam', or the moonshine in Carolin', and there may have been a repet- table yodelling about the southern skies of old Virginny, or the sunny earthquakes of California. As an enduance test, you may have stood It for a few minutes Defore dashing the microphone chasers into the outer dark of etherlc space, NELSON ( A.M, BIG BEN 2 P.M. But all Is forgiven and forgotten, as you, awakened from slumber early this morn, stifled a yawn at the Jem hour, and twisted your radio dial to a station linked tip with the Empire broadcast, concluding with a goodwill message from King George V. Thc magic moments of laet Christmastide are repeated as there Is wafted to millions of listeners a faint breath of that friendly homelines which has the gltt of keeping alive across the tumbling seas tha bond that unites the heart to home. One ventures the belief that when the B.B.C. announcer in dulcet tones as a climax to the Empire program, uttered the four words—"His Majesty the King." an inexplicable thrill was communicated to all Britons facing the sound box. AB8ENT FRIEND8 A year ago, the Yuletlde broadcast was an outstanding event during the season's festivities. Sitting betore the fire on a typical midwinter afternoon, the home-staying Briton heard greetings flashed globe-wise trom church and hospital, mine and lighthouse, home and theater. Then in a marvellous few minutes, in which time and space were virtually eliminated, came return greetings from overseas. Round the world In six minutes, and home again gathering good wishes all the way. How closely it linked the Homeland with her great family of children—big and small. Necessarily writing this prior to the broadcast, one gathers from advance press despatches that this year'a program is even more ambitious and extensive than those of former similar occasions; there is no doubt that it will be as happily welcomed. UNDER THE UNION JACK Exactly at 3 p.m., Greenwich mean time, the King speaks alone ln a little room at Sandringham, his old fashioned gabled Elizabethan-style country residence in Norfolk, where the entire royal family spends Christmas like any other British family, and his simple Message to "My Peoples" is as clearly heard wherever the wandering Briton may have set his feet and founded his home—under a broiling equatorial sun or some desolate spot in the frozen Northlands—as in any place in the little Island under the North Star. Thereby a golden link is forged between all the component parts of the British Empire. SHUTTLING THE CONTROLS London is the nerve center of the vast system of land telephone lines and commercial wireless systems through which the world wide relays of Christmas day are handled, and the General Post Office engineers are solely responsible for this great technical achievement, which involves an enormous wealth of detail, of which the average layman has the foggiest notion, and includes a re-diffusion of the programs to America, where it is picked up by the NBC and CBC transcontinental networks. !

My pastor and several lawyers have told me I would be justified in killing him. I have a revolver to do it with." Such is the threat of a Spokane father whose West must play his ace to save a trick.

WHY PANHANDLING PAYS The fact that panhandling pays well explains why the practice is persistent. And it pays specially well now. because it is generally known that there is involuntary unemployment and people are in thc mood to do what they can to relieve the destitution as it comes to their notice, without stopping to inquire whether the supposed victims are really unfortunate sufferers or plain deadbeats who never work when they can avoid it.—Columbus Dispatch.

When West wins his ace of clubs trick, let him lead back a diamond for dummy to ruff. Let dummy lead the good club and allow declarer to discard his last diamond, but it will take three leads of spades to capture East's spades. West holds a sure stop to the hearts, and a good diamond to lead back, accounting for two defensive tricks. When West wins his first trick, leading back a club will hold the declarer to four-odd, but it will be impossible for East and West to defeat the contract a trick as East asserted, unless South makes serious blunders of some kind. The normal score for the hand is four spades, although the precise tricks lost will vary with what the two sides attempt ROYAL WEDDING8 ■ (Ehriatmaa The Christmas bells are ringing.

The report of Blane's gun came with Impressive loudness, Jake stumbled a few yards furthur into the woods and then crouched behind a tree. The shot had echoed loudly among the hills. The silence which succeeded rang in his ears. ' He strained his eyes and ears in the direction of the shack. Suppose the occupant had not been awakened. Suppose there wu no occupant. Suppose Greenleaf's reconstruction, which had seemed so plausible, wss all wrong because ■ome unguessed factor threw lt out of focus. Then he sighed with relief. There was a brief glimmer of light in the direction of the shack ab- though someone within had ■truck a match or turned on a flgsh for a moment. Then there was no further light, nor was there any ■etind. A man, Jake reflected, Is awakened by tome sound, listens, hears nothing more, turns a flash on his thatch, and goes back to sleep. Still, «»tn so, Jake argued, he will remember in the morning that he wu •wakened and when he sees the note Will surmise the cause. It may work tut, he thought. The minutes dragged and Jake dared not move tor fear of making a noise. Noises now should come from farther way. A cold sweat burr.t out on his forehead. Had this been a fatal mistake..' his. staying so nesr? He had not thought the thing through. He was light-headed and stupid from lack of sleep. From farther up the hill, but sufficiently loud, came the sharp crack of a revolver and the brief rattle of echoes. Silence again and then low sounds u of someone moving cautiously in the shack, the muffled thump u of something heavy being ijioved. He could fancy that he heard th? door being opened but he could not be sure. And then after two mlnutu came a slight and more distant sound. Complete silence again, Jake crouched against his tree. * stiff and weary. He fancied •Stat the darkness was less Intense. that dawn was slowly dispelling thc flight. He must get away. From some distance down the itoirf came the unmista-fable, brief cough of* a motorcycle starting. It ceased. Then high on the hill came a third shot. The motorcycle burst into a roar which was checked to a •subdued machine gun fire. Again a tirescendo of sound, and then a rapid diminuendo as the machine became flowly lost to hearing in the distance. Jake strained his ears for the Tut faint ghosts of sound. There fjHl again perfect silence. Jake tum- «H jnto the woodk. Trees were faintly perceptible now in the early light of dawn. No doubt it would be per- •tectly sale to walk along the road, but it had been planned that they ■hould' return through the woods and he stumbled on. Two mllu farther in the half light he perceived Blane waiting for him on the rocky 'track which led to the house. They ' Went on together. Blane's two subordinates had preceded them. In the house wu the sound of subdued activity, and from the kitchen came the appetizing smell ot coffee and ftylng btcon. , Greenleaf roused himself from the •tttpor Of. sleep only as the hand upon his shoulder shook him repeatedly. He looked up into a face as sleepy as his own. i rour' service station man beat it to Washington on a motorcycle," Jake rtpoited. '.The; import of this seeped slowly IptO Ctfecnlcaf> drugged consciousness. : 'Tio'a 'taken our false mpssage," he* .said' thinking aloud. .■'LqtjkS' like it." Jake said. "And lira? lflp.goul rest iu peace and may J'lirv'-r'lg.v eyett on the son of a gun . lUitn. You and your spy business, rntlv secret inks and forgeries and Cod knows what can all go to hell.

Once the false drsnatrh was interrupted from the Mexican wireless V -would be certain that thus far his stratagem had succeeded. If that despatch were not sent he would Know that he had failed to deceive. It was touch and go. How plausibly had he staged the affair? How convincing was the forgery? He did not know. But he knew he must be In Washington to bear the scrutiny of searching eyes. ' Blane went with him. The others he* left imprisoned in the house with the promise of food supplied secretly at night. To give away the occupancy of the house and of Jen- ■tn's csplure would be to arouse too ■peat suspicions in the enemy. They cbUld not now be sure whether Jen- ttfn was captured or not. He might ht still hiding successfully In the old house, prepared, u he had said, to use the wireless if need be. It might be necessary to use that wireless at the last moment to reassure the agent in Mexico City. He would do so only If he must. He was running ahead ot himself. Perhaps the Germans weren't deceived at all. Perhaps the false message would never go on thc air. Were his nerves not so frayed with lack ot sleep he would have been sick with apprehension. As it was he could concentrate on nothing, not even on the fate ot his plans. His attention wandered to trivial things. He felt a loathing tor his Job, for the war, for existence itself. A bath in his apartment freshened him, and a big drink of whiskey gave him a fleeting and factitious sense of strength. He ate a little lunch and went to the Black Chamber, to be busied at his desk should anyone call. The Counteu would come and examine him with penetrating eyes. Well, he looked and was hslf shot to pieces with strain. She would find a good augury in that, he hoped. He prayed oply that she might come before the intercepts from Mexico City. Should those prove that the Germans had fallen for his wilu it would be difficult to hide, his relief, his hope ot success. He was not sure he was a good enough actor for that. ■ ■ Happily, she came in mid-afternoon. The effect of the whiskey had worn off, and the gloom with which he regarded his own prospects end those ot the world in general was genuine. He was quite sure that nothing would succeed. This clever and beautiful creature, damn her, had no doubt outwitted him in sonje v.ay. She knew already she had done so and had come to see whether he also knew. She would enjoy playing with him. A cat,, one of those fancy, blue eyed, long haired, expensive cats. He was near to hBting her. , "You don't seem glad to see me." she said. "Oh, yes indeed," he answered ln a tone wholly void of conviction. Hrr eyu casually Bwept the vacant chair which was Joel's. "Perhaps the absence of the pretty secretary—" she suggested. 'The pretty secretary has run off to get married," Ije said sourly. She expressed amazement. "It was to her home she said she was going, wasn't it?" "Camouflage," he said roughly. "She never went home." She eyed him reflectively. "Why do you think she is married?" "What else?" he snapped. "She goes to her boarding house in a hurry and leaves all excited and -gay. What else than a sudden marriage can it be?" i The Countess looked thoughful. "Yes—but so sudden—without arrangement?" He shrugged. (To Be Continued) Name New Colonel of Ancient Guard World's Oldest Regiment sn Impelling Force in Empire Defence LONDON, (CD-Lord Fortescue has been appointed Colonel-Commandant of the Honorable Artillery company, the oldest regiment in thc world. It can trace its ancestry to thc bow and arrow period. The H.A.C. possesses an open space of six acres and a tine Georgian building within less than iO minutes walk of the Bank of England. Incorporated under a charter of Henry VIII as the "Guild of Artillery" its original members were bidden "to practice the science and feat of shooting with longbow, cross bow and handgun for, the better defence of the realm." Some of the company's members fought in the lut defence ot Calais u an English possession. The regiment rallied to repel the Spanish Armada, and for centuries provided the "trained bands" of the city. It marched in the funeral ot Oliver Cromwell and welcomed Charles II at the Restoration. For the South African war the H. A. C. raised most of the personnel of the City Imperial Volunteers, a regiment which was recruited entirely ln London and disbanded immediately the war closed. For the Grut War lt provided seven units. More than 4000 members obtained commissions and three won the Victoria Cross. The Colonel-Commandant of the H.A.C. is by custom a Peer. Lord Fortescue succeeds Lord Galway. whose predecessor, the Earl of Denbigh, was in command for more than 30 years. Lord Fortescue entered ■the Scots Greys In 1907. He served throughout the war, was wounded twice, and was awarded the Military Cross.

Other front rank elevens ousted included Montreal Carsteel, Fort William Legion and Winnipeg United Weston. A hardy band ot miners trom northern Ontario spelled defeat for Toronto Scottish. 1933 titlists, in a stubbornly-fought, five-game series. It was Frood Mines' first bid for Dominion honors. Weakened by injuries from that gruelling struggle the Mlnen forced Verdun to another tive-gime struggle before conceding victory to the Quebec tltleholJers. New Westminster hurdled Alber- tai champion Edmonton Radials before they were downed by the ipeedy Reds from Prince Albert while Winnipeg's United Weston , were eliminating New Ontario's threit, the Legion from Fort Wllllim. Prince Albert continued to the final by conquest of the Manitoba champions in the western Cinida [final.

Possession of the Atholstin trophy was left undecided until spring when the National league's eutern and western sections were prevented by bad weather and a long-drawn four- team playoff from completing the final two-game seriei. Montreal Carsteel wlll represent the eastern section and Toronto Ulster United the western ln the second game. Ulster won the first Two vacancies were left in the National league at the end of the season when Brantford and Toronto Transportation dropped out but applications for admission have been received from Guelph Lancashire!, and another Toronto team—England United—are to be considered It the annual meeting with the probability they will be accepted. Soccer lost one of its greatest supporters during the year with the death of Sid Cowdrill, president of the Toronto ScotUsh club and powerful In the councils of the Dominion Football association. The D.F.A. reported the game as holding up well financially in spite of lean yetn. Provincial champions for 1934 were: Alberta—Edmonton Radials. British Columbia—New Westminster Royals. Minitoba-Winnlpeg United Weston. New Ontario—Fort William Legion. Northern Ontario—Frood Mines. Ontario—Falconbridge (no National league clubs entered). Quebec—Montreal Verdun.

GtorMal ferttttp /nfr HRISTMAS is a Season of Good Cheer, III of manifestation of the spirit of friend- ^0 ship, the desire for which is inherent, but too often unexpressed, in the human character, a season at which all that is best in human nature becomes articulate. We have been passing through troublous times, through a period of difficulty for everyone — for the worker, whose welfare should be a primary consideration to all, for the merchant and the business man, for the professional man and for those who devote their time to the service of the public In extending Christmas Greetings, in wishing everyone a Merry and a very Happy Christmas, I do so with the confident feeling that conditions are on the eve of a marked improvement and that we may look forward to 1935 with confidence and renewed courage to make the best of our opportunities.
