IS (AP).-Gen- eral Motors corporation, many of its production lines already humming ln a drive to regain output lost during prolonged strikes, will seek tomorrow a final settlement ol issues with tha United Automobile Workers of America. Only two of eight union demands —collective bargaining and union recognition — were settled in the »gra*ement that ended the strikes last Thursday. Six others remain for negotiations starting tomorrow morning.

"Thirty-hour week and six-hour work day and time and one-half for an time worked over the basic work day and work week. "Establishment of a minimum rate of pay commensurate wiih an American standard of living." VICTORIA, Feb. 16 (CP).—The function of the health insurance commission is to carry out to the best of Iti ability the act ai passed by the legislature, Dr. Allon Peebles, chairman, said In a public address here tonight.. The commission could not extend the previsions of the act to groups not covered by It nor alter or amend the act. The commission would attempt to keep a reasonable balance between ttyz rights and vested interests of the three participating groups — employees, employers and those providing services, he continued. The act was broader than the British scheme as It Included dependents and permitted engagement of specialists and consultants. It provided for half the cost of drugi and medlclnei, X-ray treatment, diagnostic aids, hospital treatment for a period of 10 weekt, surgery, and maternity benefits before and after childbirth. Free choice of doctors also was Included. SOME AILMENTS EXEMPTED Dpi .the. first year, Dr. P-nblea said, such ailments as hernia, harelip and pre-existing deformities would not be included in the list of treatable conditions, it being deemed inadvisable that those paying into the scheme should stand the cost of past illnesses. But when a patient was acutely ill, he added, no exemption would apply and thc patient would be entitled to care. The commission considered that a charge of one dollar (or the first day call and $1.50 for the first night call would be a wise provision to avoid calls of a trivial nature, but as the doctors had indicated they were not in favur of such charges the commission would bc glad to drop them, Dr. Peebles continued. CAPITATION METHOD The health insurance committee of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia opposed the capitation method o[ payment (or the general practitioner on the ground lhat it would lower the standards of medical practice, Dr. Peebles said. Vet, he asserted, the commission's plan would raise it. The capitation method, he said, applied all over England. If a man, wife and three children were covered, a total of $27.50 per year would be paid to physicians from all sources, In- eluding allowances for X-ray and diagnostic services.

CANADA'S DEFENCE PLANS AIMED AT AIR-RAIDS, MACKENZIE STATES To Protect Ports and "•Grain Elevators, ' He Asserts OTTAWA, Feb. 15 (CP).—Sporadic raids by air on Canadian ports, grain elevators or key points •re the threat! againit which Can- adi'a militia, naval and air foreei are being itrengthened. Hon. Ian Mackenxie told the houie of common! tonight luch raldi were the chief danger although he did not rule cut the possibility of Invasion, Defending the government's increased defence estimates against a aaVaVit-of-confldence motion launched by Grant MacNeil (C.C.F.-Vancou- ver North), the minister gave an analysis of the defence program and a fummary of the government's policy. He KB-itcd. a. statement made earlier by Prime Minister Mackenzie King that the government had given no committments to Great Britain or any other country regarding participation in any military operations. "The entire conception of Canadian naval, military and air defence is based on the action of sporadic raiders or upon aircraft carriers," said Mr. Mackenzie. "I want to tell my friends this. We arc prepared to build 100 airplanes in Canada. These will not necessarily be localized in any portion of the Dominion. "They would be machines of high velocity, capable of being moved within a few hours for thc defence of any portion of the Dominion of Canada, available for the protection of the great St. Lawrence river, available for the protection of Quebec, available for the protection of Montreal, available to ward off any raid that might be made on the food elevators oi. this country." "Wouldn't Mind Going to Jail" Rev. W.Pike Retorts MIND SPECIALIST TELLS OF INMATES Thinks They Act as Though Influenced by Medicine-Man BURNABY, B. C, Feb. 15 (CP)— Dr. J. Gordon McKay, specialist in mental diseases, testified at resumed hearings of the H. I. Bird commission investigation into administration of the Home of the Friendless In British Columbia that he was ordered out of the West Summerlanj, B. C-, Institution when he went there to examine inmates Feb. 5. Dr, McKay said he was acting on orders of Commissioner Bird when he visited the Okanagan home, operated by Mrs. Laura Crouch who also runs a similar institution In this municipality between Vancouver and New Westminster. The witness said he was admitted to the West Summerland home by Miss Martha Pike, one of Mrs. Crouch's assistants. A moment later Rev. William Pike, religious head of thc home, rushed into thc room and ordered him out. "Pike said Mr. V'hiteside I David Whiteside, K.C, counsel for thc home) had told them not to admil me,'' Dr. McKay testified. "I did not believe this to be true. Pike said he did not like thc evidence I was Riving about the Burnaby home." "KEEP QUIET" Mr. Pike interrupted the witness several times, and was warned by the commissioner to keep quiet. "I wouldn't mind going to jail,' I I'ike retorted. I Just before thc commission ad- | joiirned until next Monday because j Mrs. Crouch was ill, Pike turned to a witness who had remained in the court after giving testimony, and said: "The curse of God will rest on | you, Miss Brownl" , He was removed by a British Columbia provincial police con- | stable. I Dr. McKay gave detailed evidence : of his examination of 20 inmates in the West Summerland home, and of two girls who were former inmates. One man examined he described as an imbecile, and "not safe in (he home where there were so many of the opposite sex and children. This man should be in Essondale," (The British Columbia provincial mental hospital, seven miles cast of New Westminster. Dr. McKay said several elderly women at thc West. Summerland institution seemed comfortable, but declared such people, most of them unable to assist themselves, should not be kept on the third floor of the frame building. "It would not be allowed in any hospital," witness said. "INCULCATED WITH FEAR" Under cross-examination by Mr. Whiteside, Dr. McKay reiterated statements he had made when hearings were held here several weeks ago that inmates were inculcated with fear "as though under thc power of a medicine-man." Referring to three children at West Summerland, Dr. McKay said: "I don't think they should bc allowed to go along under those conditions." Hc declared they had no opportunity to associate with other children, and had "an excessive amount of religion fed to them daily." RUM SMUGGLED INTO JAIL AT VANCOUVER VANCOUVER, Feb. 15 (CP)— "Trusties'1 in Vancouver city jail today were without smuggled rum rations to which they had become accustomed, and police sought an unidentified woman believed to have been responsible for providing the liquor. Motorcycle Officers Fred Washbrook and Charles Boyd noticed a woman hurrying up a garage ramp between the jail buildings and the city morque nearby. She disappeared in the darkness of a downtown street. On investigation thc officers found a full bottle of rum dangling from a cord lowered from a window high in the jail. They seized the container before it could be pulled into the building. Several empty bottles were found in thc "trusties" quarters, but all inmates of that section of the jail denied connection with the rum-smuggling plot, Investigation was continued today. ATLANTIC AIR MAIL BY NOV. U.S. House Committee Approves Subsidy WASHINGTON, Feb. 15 (AP).— Thc United States house appropriations committee approved today 4 request for funds to subsidize a transatlantic air mail service starting about November 1. Twice-weekly round trips between New York and Southampton, England, with gianl, passenger- I carrying flying boats arc contemplated. Thc British firm, Imperial Airways, is scheduled to begin similar J semi-weekly crossings at thc same I time. • The initial appropriation recom- I mended was about $750,000, based I on a mail subsidy of $2 a mile. The air mail service, Assistant Postmaster-general William Howes said, would cost the user 21 to 25 ] cents for a half-ounce letter. i Asserting there probably was three times as much mail to bc flown across the Atlantic as across the Pacific, hc told thc subcommittee: "In my opinion, there is nothing | in the world, from thc mail carrying j standpoint, that has any better po- | teutialilies for heavy business than this route . . ."

Beatty, C.B.E., K.C, U.D., Chairman and President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, Before the Canadian Club of Montreal Sub-Committee Sets Two Deadlines; May Also Block Portugal Ships en Route to Spain Will Be Searched; France's Firm Stand Causes Committee to Take Serious Action HUMAN NATURE "It is human both to err and to forgpt. Sometimes I fear that 'human nature being what it is' wc shall speedily forget both thc harm and the lessons of the depression. After a full meal a man forgets previous hunger, with money in Iheir pockets or in the bank, most humans forget poverty." ECONOMIC WASTE "Economic waste may continue even if it is concealed by our revenues. If, for example, the Canadian Pacific were earning and paying 10 per cent on its common stock, and if the Canadian National were earning and paying all its legitimate charges, the operations of thc two companies in competition would still represent an economic loss of from $50,000,000 to $75,000,000 per year, That is the waste represented by duplication of effort, facilities and services." ADMINISTRATION "In the case of highways and waterways, if wc are to correct the present wasteful situation, it can only be by placing their administration in the hands of public authorities which will operate them in such a way that the revenues from them will provide maintenance, and a proper service uf capital investment.'1 INDUSTRIAL AID "That lhe state must be prepared to aid primary industries when such itd is needed cannot be questioned. Agriculture and the primary industries of Canada to some extent find their markets being the necessary defence of our tariff system." BALANCED BUDGET "When we come to put balanced* budgr-ls into rfffcet, we shall have to be coldly logical in our attitude. In transportation for example, we must adopt the simple principle that those who use transportation facilities shall pay for them." UNEMPLOYMENT "I am no doctrinaire believer in "laissez fairc" and I claim that no conceivable pul-Kc policy of this country could leave to starvation an unemployed worker in our cities, or a farmer in the drought area. Some definite form of taxation for the single purpose of relief should be adopted, for only in that way shall wc ever rouse public opinion in this country to thc realities of the enormous burden on our public authorities imposed in thc name of relief." PUBLIC SERVICES "If thc people of this country really want to keep all public services now in existence, they have to pay for them. Nothing will bring home to our citizens the danger of past policies so rapidly as to offer them the choice between a limitation of public expenditures, and an increase in taxation.' VISIBLE TAXATION "It is important that all taxation should be as direct and visible as possible. Thc man who pays a cent on a package of cigarettes knows that hc is paying a tax. Thc man who buys something that pays no visible taxation is apt lo bc deceived into thinking that he is paying no Calgary Strikers Back to Work CALGARY, Feb. 15 (CP).— Striken at the Union Meat Packing company, who participated In a "sit-down" protest for five dayi, returned to their jobs today. They returned to work to permit** conciliation board to consider their grievances. The men seek union recognition and higher wage rates. taxes." PUBLIC POLICY "It we are to have any real action in the direction of giving this country a new start, we must be prepared to advocate specific details of public policy," PUBLIC BORROWINGS "Con diti on of public finances, the cry of emergency, cannot justify further additions to the public debt. The fort lhat public borrowings may be for useful purposes is no longer available as an excuse." PROSPERITY "Canada cannot afford waste even if, for the moment, it can meet its bills or pay its losses. What a depression does is to expose our economic waste and our unsound policies. What prosperity does is to cover up both.' CALGARY BROKER IS HELD AT TRAIL |. J. Chick Wanted on Theft Charge in Alberta City TRAIL, B. C, Feb. 15 — Joseph .1. Chick.

Nelson Club to Hold Debate on the Question Sailing along smoothly on lis pronouncement that the redistricting plan of Rotary international for making three districts out ot the present district 1—largest or second largest of all Rotary districta irrespective of hemisphere—was accepta ble to the Nelson membership as in the interest* of Rotary aa a whole, the Nelson Rotary club has suddenly found' itself in the midst of a red hot campaign of "for division" or "against division", and under a bombardment of opinions and suggestions from different sections of the far-flung district. PETITIONS FOR DELAY This division of opinion as to the wisdom of dividing the district, the Nelson club found reflected in its own membership Monday, and after a wide range of discussion two resolutions were adopted, one to sign a petition circulated by the Spokane club asking Rotary international to postpone the coming Into fofce of the redistricting until it should have been discussed at the coming district conference at Spokane, and the other to give up the meeting of March 1 to a debate on the merits of the projected division. The debaters will be E. P. Dawson, C. B. Garland, A. B. Gilker, H. M. Whimster, Dr. L. E. Borden, Adolph Browne, and W. J. Waters, four of them ex-presidents of the Nelson club. Minutes of the specially called Seattle conference, attended by representatives of 40 clubs, showed a battle royal on the question, three former district presidents and one former international president favoring the division, and two former district presidents being against it, Tlie represenatives of the 40 clubs divided 28-12 in favor of a resolution opposing the redistricting, which under the authority of Rotary international will go- into effect March 15 unless 70 per cent of the clubs affected turn it down. The ultimate voting will have to be by the individual clubs. As divided on the map, the present large district, which embraces Alaska and the Yukon, British Columbia, Washington, Idaho and Oregon, will become three, two of which will be international in character. The Kootenay ls embraced in district 1-B, which is to be international. DISTANCE VS PROXIMITY In the animated discussion among the Nelson members, the advantage of linking diverse and distant sections together was weighed against the advantage of compact districts whose conferences would be attended in three times the force. The district conference has invariably voted heavily against divi sion in the past, and if the divison is postponed until the cominf district conference at Spokane, Ad*aioh Browne pointed out, there will be no opportunity to organize the new dis tricta and elect three governors to attend the next Rotary international at Nice, France. TRAIL COUNCIL PLANS BYLAW BUILD GARAGE Lerose Asks Council Go to Meeting of Ratepayers SCHOOL ESTIMATE RETURNED BOARD Council Feels Unable Meet Increase of Over $25,000 TRAIL, B. C, Feb. 15 — Mayor Bruno Lerose tonight asked the city council as a whole to attend a meeting Friday of the Trail Ratepayers' association so that a full explanation might be given regarding the proposed money bylaw the council x- pected to submit to the ratepayers within a short time. The council proposed to submit a bylaw of around $50,000 to build a garage including a market place and to make improvements to the water system. Estimates of $112,380.18 submitted by the board of school trustees was returned by the council for reconsideration. The figure was more than $25,000 above the estimate for 1936 and the council felt it could not possibly meet this increase. Members of tlft council pointed out that to give the whole amount to the school board would necessitate other civic departments going short, and it was believed the board could reduce its estimate by several thousand dollars. NEW CURRICULUM Mayor Lerose stated the school board had always cut its estimate to the bone, and that the big increase this year was necessitated by accommodation which must be provided under the new B. C- curriculum. He was sure the figure could be reduced. Water service applications from N. Ballan and J. Zuk were referred to thc fire, water and light committee. Report of City Medical Health Officer Dr. J. L. Gayton numbered infectious disease cases at 136, of which 130 were influenza, 20 of them being hospital cases. No new pneumonia cases were listed. School attendance was back to normal. Special examinations made by the health officer were five in number. Six inspections were made and 22 treatments were given at the Saturday clinic. The board of works was given authority to purchase name signs for the business section of Trail, $550 having been set aside for this so as to have everything, in readiness for the government inspector expected to visit the city shortly with respect to mail delivery. READ BYLAWS Bylaw amending the Sewer Rental bylaw was given three readings. The Indemnity Mayor and Alderman bylaw was finally adopted. Letter from the Rossland Cooperative Transportation association requesting light fixtures was read, the city clerk being instructed to inform the association purchases could be made locally. Vote of thanks was received by the council from B. A. Stimmel, sec retary of Trail centre, St. John's Ambulance association, for use of the city hall for first aid training classes. Vancouver Tourist association wrote asking pictures of Trail for display purposes, and Mayor Lerose was asked to take up Lie question with the board of trade.

WEIR NOT TO RESIGN VICTORIA, Feb. 15 (CP).—Hon. G. M. Weir, provincial secretary, and chief sponsor of the British Columbia Health Insurance act, would rather suffer political defeat fighting for health Insurance than Gyros Hosts lor Ladies at Their Weekly Meeting An array of entertainments, mus ical, games, dancing and humorous speeches greeted thc "Gyrettes" at the Nelson Gyro's meeting Monday night in the Silver ball room of the Hume when the ladies were guests. A challenge from the Travelers to the Gyros to take part In a curling tourney, was accpeted and J. Gordon Bennett appointed to take charge of the matter. Dr. H. H. MacKenzie, was chairman of the entertainment committee, assisted by Ado Diebolt and Jack Morris. J. B. Gray with many,a Scottish jest, welcomed the ladies and voiced his and the club's appreciation of the help the Gyrettes had given in Gyro ventures during the past year, especially in the way of the sale of tickets and other matters. Mrs. George Fleury made a suitable reply, voicing the thanks and willingness of "all the girls for future aid.'-' Two popular numbers "Pennies From Heaven" and "In the Chapel in the ^Moonlight" were rendered by Mrs. Murray Clark, following thc singing in unison of a special Gyro song. Highland dancing by Helen and Jimmy Stout, accompanied on the pipes by Jack Stout, featured in the program. "The Blacksmith", "Ho, Mr. Piper" and "What the Old Cow Said" sung by Mrs. D. D. Townsend, proved popular. Mrs. H. H. MacKenzie gave an amusing address on "A Gyrettes Views of the Gyro club". This was followed by a list of brain-teasing questions by Dr. MacKenzie. Mrs. G. C. Arneson, then took charge of the entertainment for the ladies and victimized the Gyro members in a mirth-provoking game that brought "groans" from the Gyros and laughs from the audience. This concluded the official program and dancing filled the remainder of the evening until midnight, when refreshments were served, thc gaily decorated hall, garlanded with heart strung chains of pink, blue and white streamers forming on appropriate and seasonal setting for the event.

Dr. Weir returned to his office today after two weeks' confi lement to his home with an attack of influenza. The statement said In part: "Many letters and phone calls, chiefly from friends of health insurance, have been recei.ed during Lhe last 10 days or so. These arc urging me not to resign. If convinced that I could do more good for the people of British Columbia if I were outside rather than Inside the government, my resignation would not be delayed. However, I am not thinking of resignation now. Incidentally, too, I would rather be defeated at the polls fighting for health insurance than be successful without it. "It is not my intention to enter the controversy between the commission and the medical representatives. But is it not obv.ous that, if health insurance is good for the employees, for instance of the C.P.R. or the Consolidated Sm- Iters" (C. M. & S. Co. of Canada, Ltd) "etc., it ls also good for wage earners not protected by sue!, industrial insurance schemes and the fact that it is impossible to include all wage earners at the beginning is not a valid argument against including as many as possible under the act."

LET'S BE SENSIBLE ABOUT THE HOSPITAL SWEEP In this day and age are so many matters of seriout social, ethical, moral and economic importance which require the attention of the wisest intellects among our people, yet here in Nelson we are in a discussion concerning the right or wrong of our poor little 50-ccnt hospital sweepstake. The Kootenay Lake hospital had got into very low financial water. It could not pay its bills. It could not purchase food for its patients without paying cash for it. When it lacked the cash, then the patients lacked the supplies—not simply recent scientific discoveries but every day needs such as, for example, oranges. That is no exaggeration. There were times when the hospital actually was short of oranges for patients because it couldn't pay cash for them and it owed the wholesalers too much to get any more supplies on credit. Then came the 50-cent sweepstake. It produced a lot of revenue. Certainly it didn't hurt anyone who bought a ticket, morally or financially. It beggared no homes, ruined no character. Certainly thc purchase implied r. gambling motive, but not that motive alone. Thousands in the course of months bought tiO-cent hospital tickets because their motives were mixed. There was a desire to aid the hospital; there was some "kick" to be gained out of the chance of winning a prize. Both the parliament of the United Kingdom and the parliament of Canada have recognized the existence of this double motive in cases of this kind. Both have provided that sweepstakes, lotteries and so on are not illegal for churches or charities if they involve amounts of less than $50, presumably in total prizes. In the case of the hospital sweep the total prizes are greater, but the principle involved and the mixed motives—"good" and "bad," if the critic wishes to be especially narrow in his definitions--are the same. The sweep enabled the hospital to pull out of a bad financial hole. Then complaints went in to the attorney- general. Not many complaints went in, but the complaints were persistent and finally Mr. Sloan felt impelled to act. The attorney-general stopped the hospital sweep. Very soon the hospital was again losing money, again the bills began to pile up. The sweeps were started again. Now we have the present discussion. It began in meetings of the Nelson Ministerial fraternity and became a current topic after a conference between the fraternity and the hospital board took place. Then followed letters to the Daily News and a report of a speech to the Associated Commercial Travelers by Ven. Archdeacon Graham, who with sincerity and courage and in a common sense way undoubtedly expressed the overwhelming weight of public opinion in this district. Now, the usually urbane Anglican Bishop of Kootenay almost displays anger over the matter. His lordship in a letter to the Daily News even mentions "professional" gambling, which is a very different thing. Thousands would support a sweep for the Kootenay Lake General hospital or a drawing for crippled children or for a milk fund for children, who wouldn't think of approving of professional, commercialized gambling. The Kootenay Lake hospital sweep and professional gambling are far apart both ethically and morally, in their immediate purpose and in their ultimate effect on those who put up money and those who finally receive its benefits, It would be very nice if the hospital could secure adequate revenue in some other way. But until it can be assured of enough revenue to enable it to fulfil continuously and efficiently its great service to the people of this district for pity's sake let's leave the local 50-cent hospital sweep alone. If we want to attack evils—and most of us do—then let's get after real evils and not go dashing our lances against mere nomenclature which happens to convey, though not always correctly, a vague idea of evil. Let's show a little common sense. Let's be governed by som« sense of proportion. BRITAIN IN THE LEAD Many times in his public life, Franklin D. Roosevelt has voiced appreciative respect for the British way of doing things. Nineteen years ago when, as secretary of the United States navy he appeared before a congressional committee in favor of a change in the organization of the navy department, he stated that the proposed change must have considerable merit, otherwise the British authorities would not have adopted it. A few days ago President Roosevelt spoke in the same vein regarding civil service plans. He referred to the British civil service as being the best in the world and a pattern for other democracies to follow. Other United States statesmen appear .to share with the president a quick regard for the British way of doing things. The Wagner bill on housing is founded on the British system. Rexford G. Tugwell has frankly admitted that hc got his satellite city idea from the British, and the social security program was at least partly based on British experience. Many of the New Dealers are studiously following the course of social legislation in Britain, which suggests that in their opinion the British are well in advance of the United States in social reform. NELSON DAILY NEW8, NEL80N. B.C.-TUE8DAY MORNING. FEB. 16. 1937. BETWEEN HIS REWARD All persons who received bonuses this year should try to save a holiday thought for the young man whe works for an Insurance company— a "certain" insurance company is the phrase we're* after. It seems that recently he's been working there nights and Sundays on a long involved, somewhat special task, which he finally completed 'o everybody's satisfaction. His chiel called him ln. complimented him, and, while the young man was wondering whether it would be a .a'ary increase or a bonus, pulled out a key and handed It to him. It was a key to the executives' washroom which the young fellow is now privileged to use, Instead of the common unlocked washroom frequented by the cheap help. • • • WALL8 HAVE EARS Corn which got mixed with the sand used for making the plaster is now sprouting out of the walls ut the living room of the bunga'ow home of Thomas Luxton, a retired farmer of Pudbrook Lane, Botlej Hampshire. Hundreds of pieces of corn have been plucked off the walls and it is still growing.—London Times. In Mr. Luxton's home they speak softly. The very walls have ears However, the odd growth of vegetables in a living room has given builders an idea. Tomorrow's bungalow will rise with your favoritt vegetables—onions, peas, beets, eggplants, etc. — growing out of the walls in the kitchen. • • • FALSE ALARM FIEND FLAYED BY FIREMAN False fire alarms are bad enough under any and all circumstani-es, but those who deliberately take firemen out on three fake calls in fog and on icy roadways merit the full force of the poetic condemnation of the "false-alarm bug" by a Detroit smoke eater, published in the International Fire Figher: Poor sorry tool—'tis vain that we should plead Or beg you cease your witless prank; Forsooth we merely pity all your breed, .\nd feel constrained to label you n "crank." What the fireman thinks of the mentality of his tormentor ls freclv expressed in several succeeding verses, with pungent reference to "flaccid mind," "feeble brain," "vacant look," "addled pate." And finally he who calls "Fire! Fire!' where there is no fire is solemnly warned: Wc do not mind it, no matter what befall, Our only thought is, someone needs our aid; And quickly we respond to every "call." Both urgent, or when a false run's made. If comes the time when urgent is your need For us to bring succor to you, Wc hope there's no one pays you heed Or gives a care or single though! to you. We'll pray to God we're on another trip (In answer to a false alarm) in turn. "Pulled" by some one of your stupid clique, „ And you are left to toast and burn. THE DOCTOR SAYS ... LOGAN CLENDENING, M.D. jj, AN "EVEN PACE" DIET BE8T FOR OVERWEIGHT I was walking on the magnificent boulevard along the lake front in Chicago the other day when I met a snow-haired friend of mine, who is probably the most distinguished medical practitioner of his generation in the country. I stopped to greet him and to my question, "How joes the world with you?" he smiled and said. "Well, I suppose at my lge I had best say pari passu." "Pari passu," I said to myself as we parted. "With even pace. What a description for the life of a man of wisdom. Would that we could conduct all our affairs in that man ner." I had been harried by people who wanted to know how to lose great deal ot weight in a short time—what is a rapid reduction diet? But more important is, why a rapid reduction diet — lt is dangerous, uncomfortable and unnecessary. Why not, I thought, a pari passu diet — one which keeps you from gaining any more, and perhaps gradually lets you lose five to 10 pounds in a year? Surely no critic can say that if you really need it, such a loss could be dangerous. So here is the beginning of the pari passu diet. This article should ppear on Friday, so there are two diets, giving the housewife an opportunity to get them on Saturday so that the dietee can start on Sunday and have thc Monday diet in the house also. On Monday we will print Tuesday's diet, etc. SUNDAY BREAKFAST - Half a grapefruit (Vitamins A, B, C and G), half a slice of toast (iron and calcium), enough butter for toast (Vitamin D), coffee, with half ,ump sugar and teaspoon of cream, glass of milk (calcium, phosphorus, vitamins). DINNER — One average helping chicken (protein), potato (Vitamin C, peas and carrots, protective, one slice bread, one-half inch thick; small portion butter; for dessert, baked apple, milk and sugar; tea or coffee. SUNDAY NIGHT LUNCH-Glass jf tomato juice (protective), one egg (protein), one slice bread, one-half inch thick; small pat butter, serving spinach (protective, mineral), let tuee ad lemon dressing salad (calcium and Vitamin C),.tea or coffee. Record your weight. MONDAY BREAKFAST — One portion applesauce (roughage, good eliminant) one egg, any style; ONE (notice the amount) slice toast, enough butter a'or the toast, coffee with HALF lump sugar and EYE DROi-PER of cream (notice the amounts). LUNCH — Vegetable soup, salad -lettuce, asparagus, hard-boiled egg, one tablespoon olive oil and vinegar drassing (all the pepper, mustard and other condiments you want); two crackers of any kind and butter, two or three slices of pineapple for dessert, one glass of milk, tea or coffee. DINNER — Lean portions ot one or two lamb chops, one potato, small (protective substances); squash (protective substances); string beans (protective substances), one slice bread and enough butter, average helping of lemon pie, coffee or tea with cream and sugar. Daily intake about 1,500 calories. Record your weight. AUNTHET By ROBERT QU1LLEN "There ain't nothin' that uplifts me like the Doxology, unless it's havin' somebody for dinner that knows how to appreciate good cook- in'." QUESTION FROM READERS Mrs. W. S. D.: "Will you please advise or discuss some time soon something as to scarlet fever im uinizatipn?" Answer; A few years ago the scarlet fever serum for immunizing purposes, put out by Dr. Dick of Chicago, was quite thoroughly tried out. There were, however, many disappointments with its use. At the present time there is no scarlet fever immunization method that can be recommended. Scarlel fever, however, in the last few years has been so mild and infrequent that it is hardly worth immunizing against. THERE'S STILL news coming out of the special edition of the Nelson Daily News, though It's nearly a month since that pictorial and industrial effort was put away. One of the most interesting angles is the response from old Umers in all parts of the country who, hearing about the paper from old friends, or seeing copies of it, write in for copies for themselves. One of the lastest to ask for one of the papers is Mrs. May Shaw of New Westminster, who dates her Nelson "old-timership" from 1892. One of these statistically-minded fellows down in the business office —every office has them—figured out that thc special issue consumed IVt rolls of paper, the average reel weighing around 650 pounds. He even figured thc mileage—it took 32.44 miles of newsprint to produce that 40-page edition. Despite a record press run of 9527 papers, the issue proved sufficiently popular that comparatively few copies are left; and a large part of these will be retained against next year's special. • a. * HAVE YOU EVER stopped to Ihink what a fascinating study your fellow townsmen are; and how little you may know about them. There is, for instance, the young married woman of this city who goes to the post office almost on a clockwork schedule each morning. She seldom varies five minutes one way or the other, and Immediately after visiting the post office, she has a daily hamburger sandwich. Roly Toughnell ot Vancouver asserts that a pessimist is a fellow who bears both belt and suspenders. Observation reveals there must be a whole lot of pessimists ln this city, for a surprising number wear both articles. Among thc queer things that come' to a newspaper note this—the report of a merry country dance held to raise funds for a cemetery. And the efforts of thc ladies of Nakusp to get a dentist to locate ln their city. After they get the dentist they'll be moaning because they've got to go to him for dental work; and listen to the moans of their menfolk and children. ... LIST AMONG ALMOST forgotten fashions the trick of lighting a match with one's thumbnail. "Twas- n't so long ago every young fellow was burning his thumb trying to light matches with that dash of elan or what-have-you. Now It's seldom seen. Anti-climax—when a fellow does a Jesse Owens for nearly the length of a city block to catch the last street car home, swings on the car step gasping for breath even as Jesse Owens after smashing Olympic records—and then finds the car is stopping 20 feet further on anyhow to let a passenger off. We find it hard to understand why an advertisement: "Experienced girl wanted," should include the words: "Must have knowledge of cooking." CONTRACT BRIDGE By E. V.

READER Balfour, B.C. THINKS NELSON NEEDS SErOND WATER SUPPLY To the Editor: Sir—Former residents of Gait, Ont., and the country adjacent to It, have read with special interest an article in a recent number of 'McLean's" on the subject of the fast diminishing water supply in that part of Ontario. At the time of the early settlement of Gait, the river flowing through the town was of considerable size, but of late years its summer volume has dwindled until it is not large enough to carry off the sewage de- Dosited ln it by Gait and other towns along its banks. The reasons for the diminished flow and the steps being consider ed to overcome lt are dealt wltl In the magazine article which of interest to all residents of Nell son, as lt ls a reasonable assump-J Uon that, to some degree, source from which we obtain ou domestic vater supply will tero to diminish, rather than increase] in the future. Only a few yean ago, when the Five Mile systen was Installed, it was confident! expected that the problem of water shortage at any time of year would not arise, but such has] not been Ihe case. With this in mind, and prompted by the appearance in your papei of Feb. 9, of the report of action by the city council in forwarding the purchase of a reservoir site, would invite all water users In thl Nelson area to a serious consider! ation of this important matter. Thl large majority approving the watel bylaw Indicates the interest shown! but I hold that the voters wera not given an opportunity to choosa between the construction of a res\ ervolr and the obtaining of watj from an additional source. Eva though the expert on whose advlc the reservoir plan was adopts did not have this brought to hi attention, he was, I believe, In errtf when he did not consider it on M own Initiative. For my part, I shall, until thl angle has been fully Investigated feel that the money set aside for thi construction of the reservoir has no been spent to good effect, becausi the advantage of a dual source o supply, ln the event of a breakdowr in the present system, cannot bi over-estimated.

Midgets Held Fairview WINS 19 CONSECUTIVE GAMES IN CURLING EDMONTON, Feb. 15 (CP) - Record for consecutive victories at the northern Alberta curling bonspiel was tied here today when Billy Rose skipped his Sedg:wlck, Alta., quartet to a pair of convincing victories, bringing his total to 19. High mark was set up in 1927 by Cliff Manahan of Edmonton when he led a rink to 19 strai-ht wins. Mana- Playing a smart defensive game behind a great exhibition of goal- tending by Norman May, the M.R.K. midget hockey squad held the flashy Fairview A.C. squad to a 2-2 tie j han, winner of the MacDonald Brier Monday afternoon. The M.R.K. club' [n 1934, earned runner-up honors to held the lead on two occasions, but, Rose so far, counting his 18th victory the Fairview boys came back each against one defeat, time to tie the score, the secoml tying goal coming with only a few minutes to play, and some dispute arose that Milne was in the creche.

Bonspiel Playoff TRAIL, B.C., Feb. 15.-Frank Avery's Vancouver rink now holds four of the British Columbia Curling association's 1937 bonspiel trophies. Three of these were won at the annual 'spiel held this year in Trail, and the fourth, the All Comers event, was captured from Dave Gamham's four when the final was played out on the Vancouver club's own rink. Active interest in the competition so far as rinks from other clubs were concerned, ceased when Billy Wlialen's Vancouver quartet eliminated J. C. Urquhart's Rossland aggregation in the final at Trail. Besides the All Comers competition the Avery rink in the forty- second annual bonspiel also won the Rossland cup, Grand Challenge and Grand Aggregate. Avery's rink comprised Fred Tin- ling, "Dad" Tinling and Bill Lesage. The Garnham rink included Gordy Livingstone, Jack Cornett and George Law. Ledingham Has Only Nelson Rink, (oast Rev.

She loved the.hours from 5 to 8. Those belonged to her. They began with her wailing for Joel's step on the stair. Then a quick glance to see if she looked fresh and clean, another to note with READ THIS FIRST: Janet MacLeod has just married Joel laynter, second-rate actor, whom she met a few weeks previously at a cocktail party. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY: CHAPTER 2 Janet Paynter stood indecisively at the coiner of Columbus avenue and Seventy-third street and gazed idly into the window of the drug store. She pressed her face to the glass to view the clock on a wall beyond. She saw that it was only 10 minutes to 4 and sighed. "Oh, excuse me." Janet moved aside out of the patch of sunlight to make room for the baby carriage another girl wheeled expertly into the advantageous spot. Janet could see only the tip of an infinitesimal nose above the blue blanket. She smiled at the other girl and walked on. "I'll have plenty to do some day," she said aloud and tlie course of her thoughts ran on like the stories she had woven as a child. They formed a series of pictures without a plot. They embraced a happy little house set in a sun- dappled lawn. Somewhere in that liouse there was a small angel, an exact replica of Joel. A car drove into the driveway. A very smart, very expensive car — since Janet could never think of Joel without thinking of the best, there was an aura of grandeur about Joel — and, of course, Joel was at the wheel, "Get your hat, darling, and we'll run down to the club for a swim before dinner." She blew him a kiss and said, "I'll be right with you as soon as I speak to cook. was their home was as nearly perfect as she could make it. There would be teacups and thin bread- and-butter sandwiches on the basket tray or. if it was a matinee day, there would be the mixings of a mild cocktail to pick Joel up. Then they would be alone to talk, to have Janet tell Joel how much she loved him, Joel to tell Janet how complete his life had been these last two months. Janet listened avidly to everything that Joel had to tell her about the theater and in exchange offered him the stories of her mild adventures of her afternoons: She had seen book on raising peacocks at the library and wondered if she should get up on the subject. The man who sold pussy willows told her he had once been a strong man in a circus. Mr. Schweizer, the butcher, said his wife was going to name the baby F. Delano Schweizer after the president. They dined usually in a little tearoom up the street — 50 cents with a wide choice of entrees and Janet walked to the subway with Joel. She would often have liked to go to the theater with him but she knew how he would have detested the thought of her waiting in his dressing room for him. She had soon tired of going back to their "apartment" alone to read for the next three hours. She didn't go to the movies because that was what she and Joel did at least two Member of the Canadian Daily Newspaper Association TELEPHONE 144 Private Exchange connecting to all Departments Supscription Rates Single copy _ „ $ .05 By carnei per week .25 By carnei pei yeai „ 13.00 By mail tn Canada, to subscribers living outside regular carrier areas pei month 60*: three months $1 80 six months, $3.00. one year $6 00.

It was then that public library to kill an hour or; ner new friends and a few of her two. i old ones came lo the Paynters' home. She shifted the two heavy books | Al fjrst janet had been afraid that irom one arm to the other. "Tlie Jacobean Era in Furniture," Tcher- inova; "My Twenty Years in the Ballet," an autobiography. Good, solid books to improve a girl's knowledge and while away the long, lonely hours of the evening. Not the exciting new books that people were talking about but good reading matter. You had to go to the circulating' library for the new books and the circulating library ate up quarters when you read a book in an evening. If I leave the books at the house and walk back to Broadway and Seventy-second street, the flower cart may still be there, she thought. I'll buy a little bunch of daffodils and walk back by way of the park. Then, I wouldn't be back until 5 and Joel will home by then. There w-as a small, discomforting tug at her conscience. She felt that she was a spendthrift of time although time was the only thing she had in quantity. She remembered how she used to luxuriate in her Sunday mornings. But then she hadoeen a working girl. Days had been crowded and they passed swiftly. Those were normal days that began at 8 and ended by midnight. Janet's day now began at noon when she waked a little before Joel so that she could prepare his breakfast. Lunch was a word that had disappeared from her lexicon except when she had a luncheon engagement with one of her working friends. Janet prolonged those luncheons as long as she could, savoring the stimulating news and small gossip of the world she had left behind her and came away feeling a little lost at the prospect of the long afternoon ahead of her. On afternoons when Joel didn't have a matinee, he was "doing the rounds" of thc casting agencies, anticipating the next move in the Four Sons One King England on Ihe Throne Four sons of one king of England occupied the throne in succession, writes Mrs. H. J. WitchcU. Listing Saxon and Danish kirn's of England, she DO'nts that Egbert, first king of all England, ruled 12 years, from 827 to 839. Sncceding him was his son, Ethel- wulf, who spent 19 years on the throne. Four sons of Ethelwulf were on the throne in the next 45 years. Ethelbald and Ethelbert, first and second sons of Ethelwulf, ascended the throne jointly in 858; Ethelbald to rrmam on it for two years and Ethe'bert for eisht years. Ethelred. th'rd son of Eth?lwulf, succeeded Ethelbert on the throne in 866 and occupied it until 871. Then Alfred fourth son of Ethelwulf, became kint? and remained on the throne 30 years, until 901. Altogether the three generations represented by Egbert, Ethelwulf and the four sons of the latter were on the throne 74 years from 827 to 901. lhe four son1- for 45 years, of which 30 were Alfred's. Miss Schofield, Trail, Election Commissioner Miss Dorothy Letttia Schofield lr.s been added to the list of the provincial elections commiss'oners for Rossland-Trail riding, according to the B. C. Gazette. ihe noise when Ted Jevers played his concertina and Joel sang in his husky baritone would awaken the neighbors but she soon learned that her neighbors, who were mostly theatrical people, lived by the same schedule. Janet ran up the flight of brown stone steps and while she fumbled in her purse for her keys, the door opened. "Hello, Mrs. Birney. Thanks for letting me in," she addressed her landlady At first she had tried to escape Mrs. Birneys loquaious sociability. Lately she had welcomed it. "Any messages for me?" she asked cheerily and looked toward the table in the hall where tlie tele* | phone slips were left. "There's a lady waiting for you ( upstairs and I've a message from; Mr. Paynter." She fished in her apron pocket and brought out the I folded slip. "A lady?" Janet asked and un-i folded the slip. She was glad for | the darkness of the hall. She didn't | want Mrs. Birney to see how her j face fell as she read that Joel would I not be homo until after the theater. He had to dine with Helen Grafton, the message read. Helen Grafton was a successful young musical comedy star. Perhaps she can get him a part when his show closes, Janet thought reasonably, but a small dark cloud rolled into her memory. There had been a photograph of the actress in the drawer of Joel's desk when she had moved in, She summoned a smile and put the memory out of her mind as she opened the door to her own place. "Martha!" she cried a glad welcome and was folded into the spacious arms of her old friend. "Let me look at you!" Martha Colby whirled her 150 pounds lightly and sat down on the double bed disguised as a lounge with a bright Navajo and multicolored pillows. "So, this is the love nest!" she said. "And how's the bride?" "Wonderful!" Janet said, hanging her coat up in the crowded closet. "How do you like the Mexican effect?" She gestured toward the orange and yellow curtains, the bronze bowls filled with foliage — foliage was cheap — the guady posters on the walls. "Charming," Martha said unenthusiastically. "What'd you do with all the things in your apartment?" "I've sublet it lock, stock and barrel. Joel and I think it is best not to tie ourselves down with possesions. Theatrical people don't you know," "Don't they?" Martha asked dryly. "And is Mexicana the smart thing now?" • "Very," Janet said firmly. "I always associated Mexico with sunlight and heat. And there's very little sun or heat here." Martha shivered. Janet sat down beside her and took one of the large, capable hands in hers. "Martha, you've come here to find fault, to say all the things you didn't before I was married. Please don't. I'm so happy I think I've died and gone to heaven. I was alone for five years. Long enough to realize that I wasnt a pretty, desirable girl, darling. And then, suddenly and for no reason because I never deserved anything like it, the most beautiful thing in life was given to me. The mrn I love and who loves me. I've had six weeks to realize that except for him I haven't anything. But that's enough and-all I want for the rest of my life. If only I can keep Joel!" Mrrtha was a trifle flabbergasted by Janet's sudden attack. "Pshaw, child, you'll be able to keep him."

Will Electrify Molly Hughes al New Denver Penetrate High Grade Ore, Second Level, Wire Silver ' Equipment to electrify the M.illv Hughes mine at New Denver is at Slocan City and, according to Ihe Spokesman-Review of Spokane Wash., as soon as it arrives at the mine unwatering of the two bolion levels will bc started. It is no! expected to take long. The Spokesman reports: TO INSPECT WORKINGS An inspection of the deeper workings, and the expected development to follow, will be started as suon as the levels are cleared, but removal of the equipment to the property can not begin until the Slocan hke is reopened as delivery is made by boat to the Molly Hughes wharf Thc lake is covered with ire for tlie third time in thc memory of white men, or 75 years. While lhe mining property is crossed by the railroad, the railroad is on ground 200 feet higher on the hill, and ihe wharf and the collar of the shaft are at about the same horizon. The superintendent, O. C. Ben, formerly of Spokane, reports penetration of high grade ore at a new point on the second level. It is on the footwail side of Ihe Mollv Hughes vein. 30 feet from the haig- ing wall. While the value lu 'he ton has not been determined assays of high grade ore from this vejr on the same level have contained SCO to 1100 ounces, according to J \V Turner. Native and wire silver -re reported to have been revealed in the recent strike. Another boom is predicted for the Slocan region, regarded as the r'eh- cst in silver, lead and zinc of British Columbia. Properties are to be reopened as soon as the weather permits, said Mr. Turner, who has been operating in the northwest Nevada I and California for many years. Mining and Market News NEW YORK TIRED NEW YORK, Feb. J5 CAP)-The stock market acted tired today. Although it had thc benefit of vitality in industrial news it allowed itself to be pushed back fractions to around 2 points on modest sales, Fears of steel and coal strikes, consumer resistance lo higher prices, were cited by some as explanations of the decline. An indicator of Wall street's cautious and unenthusiastic attitude toward the market, analysis said, was unwillingness of steels lo rally more agressively following news of a rise in operations to 81.6 per cent of capacity, the highest point since December, 1929. Transactions totalled 1.971,540 shares compared wiih Thursday.
