If a tie seems perhaps outmoded, though there are few men who could not find use for another, there are the new tie clips with initials or tiny mascot figures that arc growing in popularity. This type of personal jewellery, covering a wide field, often is just what the younger man or woman, the lad or ihe Miss, has been wanting. Decorative, distinctive and delightful, it can be chosen to suit almost anyone. There's nothing quite so comforting as a pair of slippers. Milady perhaps prefers them with a dash of color, a pom-pom, or a ribbon, and if she does her taste can be matched in Nelson stores. Milord wants his slippers roomy and comfortable, and his taste too can be matched. Slippers that fold into overnight bag br suitcase, slippers of fine leather or warm felt, slippers as dainty as their wearer, all these and more are wailing for the right person to wear them. Clothing and accessories, whether purely practical or purelv decorative, are as personal as the giver and receiver. i on your the bovs' i to please (lie girls' rt Five Games in Trail Week-End School Hockey TRAIL.

When parliament reassembles the house of commons and the senate wiil wish, I am sure, to have returns made of all correspondence respecting applications for the export, the diversion of Ontario waters at Long Lac and elsewhere and respecting the St. Lawrence waterways project. It is the intention of the government to see that returns are made in due form. "As it is your desire that the correspondence referred to in your telegram be made public, I shall be glad lo sec that the communications are brought down with such other correspondence as may be included in the return. Pending the reassembmling of parliament I should like to be informed if your government has any objection to any part of the correspondence with respect to the above subjects, whether marked confidential or otherwise, being laid on the table of parliament. "I hope you may find it possible lo have a similar return, with respect to the export of power, the diversion of water and the St. Lawrence waterways project, made to the legislature of Ontario containing correspondence on the part of tlie Hydro-electric Power commission, as wclT as the government of Ontario." STATEMENT TO PRESS At the same time the prime minister issued a 400-word statement regarding Mr. Hepburn's charges Saturday that he had sought to influence the Ontario premier regarding the St. Lawrence treaty. The statement; "My attention has been directed to a statement which, according to the Canadian Press, Premier Hepburn made on Saturday morning to the effect that on the occasion of my visit to President Roosevelt last spring I had stopped en route and spent an hour in his office in an effort to persuade him Mo accede to the Roosevelt request regarding proceeding with the St. Lawrence project.' "At. no lime have I tried, directly or indirectly, to persuade or influence the member of any provincial government to adopt an attitude in favor of, or against, the St. Lawrence waterways project. I have consistently held and expressed the view that the provinces of Ontario and Quebec are vitally interested in this project and that it could not be proceeded with apart from their consent and cooperation, which would have to be given in their own interests as well as in the interests of Canada as a whole. "At the appropriate time I shall be only too glad to inform the public, through parliament, or what was said hy myself to Mr. Hepburn and by Mr. Hepburn to me in the course of the interview to which he refers and of what was said by myself to the president as a result of it. "I regret that, meanwhile, It Is neceisary for me to have to deny, In itt entirety, the statement made by Mr. Hepburn that I at- I tempted to persuade him to ac- ! cede to what he terms 'the Roose- I velt request regarding proceed- : ing with the St. Lawrence pro- ! ject.' "So far as the interview related to the St. Lawrence waterways it did not go beyond a request on my part to be informed of what Mr. Hepburn might wish me to say to the president with respect to Ontario's attitude toward the St. Lawrence development, in the event of the question being raised by the president in the course of my visit." "I did not discuss the pros or cons i of the subject, or indeed, express any opinions concerning it.

During this week a special committee of the Christmas Cheer fund will examine the lists of families whose names have been submitted as possible Cheer recipients, and upon determining their eligibility will decide how the fund is to be distributed, how much will go to each family, and so on. The Cheer fund is still open, and is expected to be materially increased by group gifts today and tomorrow. The money is urgently needed, and the greater the fund, the greater will be the amount received by each family- Cheer fund officials are hoping for a large increase today and tomorrow, so that the good cheer thus provided may be of substantial help to the unfortunates receiving it. A year ago $1200 was distributed. A few days before last Christmas, single unemployed men, asking if they would be included in the recipients, had to be told there was not enough money to extend it to them.

This intimation at once rendered unnecessary any discussion of the project. "I regret that I must also deny the further statement made by Mr. Hepburn that I had intimated to him that, unless the request were acceded to, Mr. Roosevelt might retaliate with trade barriers. The question of 'trade barriers', In this, or any other connection, was not so much as mentioned by either Mr. Hepburn or myself In the course of our interview." '1 Little Theatre Plays Tonight for Cheer Fund Nelson Untie Theatre is presenting this evening at the Civic theatre two seasonal attractions in aid of the Christmas Cheer fund, and patrons will not only witness two excellent performances, but will also be aiding a worthy cause. Much time and labor has been expended by the Little Theatre in preparing these two plays, Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," and "Why the Chimes Rang." Some 50 people are in the two casts, and special scenery has been built. Tbe cathedral scene in "Why the Chimes Rang" is exceptionally good, genuine choristers rendering the special music. Nelson theatre-goers are promised a genuine treat. HOME PUCKSTERS TOP DOGS CHEER FUND PUCK SHOW Nelson Makes Double Conquest; Trail Midgets Win Nelson team, dished out ihe winner's brand of hockey Saturday night and two of the three hockey mixups on the Nelson Christmas Cheer fund program, sponsored by the Nelson Amateur Hockey association, fell to the home crews. No figures wera available Sunday night, but it was believed that the association's contributions to the fund would equal that of last year's $80. Pick of Nelson's midget material, playing together for the first time, just wasn't good enough to stave of Louis Demore's pint-sized hockeyists, and the Smelter city visitors carred off the opener by a score of 5-4. But the visitors did not fare so well in the remaining games. The Nelson juvs romped over Paddy Mc- Inlyre's Trail puck-chasers 5-1, in a flashy, crowd-pleasing battle; while the Fairview intermediates did the crushing against the Ymir Rock Crushers to the tune of a 4-2 count in the nightcap. LITTLE "D" LINE Trail's little D" line, Barss Dimock, Bill Dwyer and Bill Dimock, in the midget tangle carried Trail's battle almost alone. Their punch brought in all five of Trail's markers, Dwyer opened the scoring with a snappy shot, only to have Bud Emery, Nelson star, tie the count, and at the opening of the second session shoot the home squad into the lead. Tapanila assisted on the latter goal. The "little D" line was quick in replying, sending the Trailites into the lead on two fast goals by Dwyer. A third goal by Emery was equalized by Bill Dimock*s shot. Tapanila and Emery got together on the opening goal of tlie third, with Tapanila making the telling shot. Trail recaptured the lead when Dwyer crashed Mays citadel on play in which both the Dimocks figured. The lineups follow: Nelson — Norman May, goal; E. Kuhn, S. Mcintosh and Syd Desircau, defence; Harold Tapanila, Bud Emery, Doug Winlaw, W. Wood, Jack Morgan, George Milne, Arthur Matheson and E. DeGirolamo forward. Trail — Sammartino, goal; L. Tognotti, J. Munaldi, D. McLeod, defence Bill Dimock, Bill Dwyer, Barss Dimock, E. Edwar and C. Kravesky forwards. Paddy Mclnlyre's challenge-issuing juveniles went back to Trail Saturday night dragging a rather bedraggled challenge behind them. Tlie lakeside boys held tlie edge throughout the battle, and Mclntyre himself saved his teammates from a blank with a shot past Scott, Nelson netminder, in the dying moments of the game. Flashy and fast, Bert Ramsden, teamed up with Bud Emery to open Nelson's scoring parade. Emery was quick lo follow, and another goal by Ramsden made (lie count three to nil at Ihe close of the first. Nelson's lead lengthened to four on another counter by Emery in the second. Final score ef the pnine was chalked up by Howie Breeze, who scored on a pass from Ramsden. Lineups follow: Nelson — D. Scott, goal; Vic Del- Puppo, Frank Raukuc, C. Gallaher and Art Guscott, defence; Black, Bert Ramsden, Dunlop. Bud Emery. Howie Breeze, Kritchoff, Frank Swcrydo and F;lmer Gelinas, forwards. Trait — Tom Home, goal; Steve Zuk. Maris Matteucci and Robert Walley. defence; Sam Saprunoff, Bert Adamson, Harvey Smith, Paddy Mclntyre, Elinor Erickson and Robert Finlay. Breaking loose in the fading moments of the third, Ron McLaren, Ymir centre, with a duo of bullet- like drives sent the rubber crashing past Jack Bishop to close up the Fairview intermediates' three-point lead to one and give the Nelson fans a few bad moments before the bell But his teammates, unable to equal his pace, were held down by the high-stepping Fairviewites, and the major battle of the triple bill closed 3-2. A hard pressed Ymir defence allowed only a goal a period in the first two frames, Anderson snapping in tlie initial counter on Leem- ing's play. A Wait-to-Breeze combination .rough! Nelson two up by the second. Flashing from one end of the rink to the other in a fast solo, Wait shot Fairview still farther into the lead when he beat Olson. McEwan closed the Fairview scoring. Lineups follow: Nelson—Jack Bishop, goal; T. Lennon, G. Stirzaker. Jack Whitfield and N. Lutkivitcli, defence; B. McEwan, R. Anderson. Jim Leeming, Roy Breeze, Walt Wait and Wilf Lauritz.

Many Reasons Babies Should Nol Suck Their Thumbs This Ib the eleventh in a series of health stories approved by the Nelson board of public health. CHAPTER 11 Mrs- Reynolds and Mrs. Brown had much in common. They were about the same age, they belonged to the same church, they belonged to the same club, and they both had brand new babies. The two young mothers spent many afternoons together discussing the problems of child-rearing. Thanks to modern medical measures, they both were rapidly becoming quite well educated on the subject, both used common sense and good judgment, and their children were visual proof of their care and attention. Little Billy Brown waa two months younger than Jack Reynolds. When Billy was less than a month old, he developed the cunning habit of sucking his thumb. At first, this caused no alarm, and then he looked so cute and contented as he lay blissfully in his crib, sucking the pretty pink thumb. Dr. Hayes, the physician, coupling the thumb-sucking with other symptoms, decided that Billy was not receiving enough nourishment, He prescribed some supplementary feeding, which soon corrected the undernourishment symptoms, but did not correct the thumb-sucking. When the habit became more pronounced, Mrs. Brown tried various methods to correct it. She removed the offending thumb every time she saw it in his mouth; she tied the ends of his shirt and night gown sleeve together; she placed adhesive tape on his fingers and thumbs; she even put some unpleasant tasting medicine on his hands. None of these so-called cures proved satisfactory- Naturally this trial and error method took time. But none of- the measures took effect. By the time Billy was four months old* the thumb-sucking habit was more pronounced than ever- Finally in desperation, Mrs. Brown asked her physician's advice. Dr. Hayes listened in sympathy. "You have a problem to solve, Mrs, Brown. A somewhat common problem, but you must solve it. Thumb- sucking and finger-sucking help to carry germs to the baby's mouth, For that reason alone, it should be stopped. The constant pressure exerted by the thumb or finger on the palate will in time change the shape of his jaws and face. Remember that a child's bopes are very soft and pliable. They can easily be pushed out of shape by constant pressure. While the pressure exerted by- thumb-sucking is very slight, if it is persisted in for a sufficient length of time, it will cause his upper front teeth to protrude and prevent his teeth from coming together properly. •"Fortunately, Billy is still so young that we can correct the habit easily. This is how we will do it. Make a stiff cardboard cuff for each arm. This cuff should be long enough to extend almost from his shoulder to his wrist. It should be large enough that, he can bend his elbow slightly, yet he should not be able lo bend it enough that he can get. his hand to his mouth. The cuffs can he fastened to his sleeve by safety pins. ThU method rives freedom to his hands and lt allows him to use and exercise his arms, vet it prevents him from sucking his thumb." Needless to say, both Mrs. Brown and her friend Mrs. Reynolds we,re delighted with the results- Their vision of a rabbit-faced Billy soon faded. By the time Billy was five month old, all evidence of the unpleasant habit had disappeared. (To Be Continued Next Monday) Soroptimist Club Reviews Year al Christmas Tree A table centred with a sparkling Christmas tree; Christmas presents, Christmas carols, Christmas contests; marked the December dinner of the Nelson Soroptimist club, held Friday in the Hume hotel silver room. Two new members, Mrs. Nellie Sommer and Miss Belle McGauley, were welcomed into the club by Miss Jean Gilker. Mrs. Sarah Tyler, retiring president, gave a resume of the year's activities, which included glasses; books and milk supplied to school children, donations to various societies, services rendered in connection with the recent Red Cross drive and the providing of curtains and frames for cots in the children's ward of Kootenay Lake General hospital. The treasurer's report, read by Miss Lois Sheffield, showed a substantial balance in the bank, to be augmented, it is hoped, by the Soroptimist auction sale in February next. A sum of $10 was voted for the Christmas Cheer fund, and the purchase of cod liver oil for undernourished school children, at the request of Miss Dunn, public health nurse, was authorized. An election of officers for the forthcoming year resulted as follows: president, Emily Hamson; vice-president, Lois Sheffield; recording secretary, Ruby Young; corresponding secretary, Grace McDonald; treasurer, Jeap Gilker; board ot directors; Marion McPhail, Sarah Tyler, Marian Wallace.

MYERS, Ph.D. With shortage of houses and of apartments in most cities, many parents with babies and young children are having a hard time to find desirable quarters. Some owners of two-family houses refuse to rent to parents of babies and young children. Even owners of single houses strongly prefer tenants without children. The chief reason given for excluding babies and young children from apartments and two-family houses is the objection of the other tenants: they dislike to be disturbed. Now childless couples are far more numerous than they used to be and their number increasing. Naturally the owner wishes to keep the tenants he has, satisfied. Another reason why babies and children are not wanted is that children are more destructive of property. Many landlords complain that children deface the walls and wallpaper and are hard on the stairways, shrubbery and lawn. Owners of apartments rent their places as a business. We, if we were in their place, would take the same attitude. We must remember that it is easy in these days to keep apartments filled with tlie kind of tenants most favorable to the owner's business. Just why should we expect him any more than we expect the butcher, grocer or druggist to run his business chiefly for the special advantage and privilege of certain customers and at extra cost to him? Many tenant parents of babies and young children have helped create and exaggerate this problem by failing to train their children from early infancy to be very careful of property and considerate of the rights of others. If all parents who are tenants—we lived in an apartment when two of our children were babies—were willing and able to train their children properly, and were eager to make good any property their children destroyed, this problem would not loom so large. The housing problem is a strong argument for teaching children, from their early infancy, respect for the rights of others and regard for authority—early home citizenship. Serial Story . . . Peacock Feathers READ THIS FIRST: Jerry Chandler, son of a country clergyman in modest circumstances, after a course at Yale, finally meets Mimi Le Brun, now a St. Louis society girl, whom he has admired for years. She is a cousin of Lionel Clark, Jerry's only close friend at college. All three, with several other young people, are at a Maine camp presided over by Olga, an attractive young woman who married Mimi's wealthy grandfather shortly before he died. Jerry has just met Andy Fuller who is in love with Mimi. And now Jerry is wilh Mimi herself. More impressed than ever with Mimi's charm. Jerry feels he is going to enjoy the house party.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY: For the "Beanpole" . . . Balanced Diet of Nourishing Food, Exercise Will Keep Figure Perfect By GLADYS GLAD On? of our well-known movie critics recently startled his leaders by calling a famous cinema siren a "well-dressed beanpole," Not a very complimentary remark, of course, but then, critics seldom are kind. However, this particular critic had logic behind hi? comment Men. he claims, like women to he slender and shapely, but they don't like them to be skinny! Their idea of perfection is a woman who is slender, yet has softly-rounded contours. Scarecrows are out so far as modern males are concerned. One of the greatest mistakes that many underweight individual:, make is to refrain from exercise. They have the idea that exercising is only for the fat, and they arc afraid that if they are too active they will become even thinner. Of course, this idea is entirely wrong. For exercise helps women to gain weight and acquire curves just as effectively as lt does to assist heavy women in losing weight. MUST EAT WELL Exercise makes the tissues active and healthy. When a woman who is fat exercises, her adipose tissue breaks down as her tissues become active. And when a thin woman exercises firm muscle develops in her starved tissues. Another reason why the underweight should exercise is that if she is on a weight gaining diet, she may acquire added poundage only on certain portions of her body. As a result, her figure will not appear properly proportioned. Proper exercise not only helps to develop the body, but also molds it upon harmonious lines. A. thin woman must eat well, to provide her body with plenty ol nourishment. That doesn't mean, however, that she must stuff herself to the point of discomfort just because she wants to gain weight. If she cannot consume more food than ordinarily, she can select those that are not very bulky or filling, but are nourishing. The thin girls can indulge in all the foods that the fat girl would like to eat, but cannot. She may have cream and sugar on ber cereals and in her tea and coffee. She may have cream soups and creamed vegetables. She may drink rich milk whenever she wishes. And she may eat candies and good things like ice cream, custard, rice end tapioca pudding for desserts. But she must see to it MARJORIE WEAVER Slender and shapely that she keeps it well-balanced, nevertheless. For unless ber diet has basic foundation of frosh fruits and vegetables, it will not greatly benefit her health or add to the loveliness of her figure. And she must not neglect her exercise. CHAPTER 15 The Ammidon twins and Girard Sylvester decided not to sit up for the play reading. They had made plans for an early morning fishing trip, and included in their plans were two house guests whom I have not mentioned—Jimmie Hancock and Luther Dean. They made no apologies for their desertion. Anne Ammidon was dead for sleep and confessed it without shame. "Run along, Baby," Lionel told her; "you are too young for such late hours — and. anyhow, Jerry's play might go to your head." "It isn't my play," I objected. "Al! the love scenes are yours," he said. "You wouldn't let me touch them." Katherine Merrill looked at me "You don't mean that, you are as old-fashioned as that?" "As what0" "As to attempt the romantic." "I haven't attempted it; I have achieved it," 1 said lightly. She did not. know whether or not I was in earnest, nor did the rest of them, and I felt I had scored a point by my daring, It was, as I have said, the day in which we worshiped at the shrines of Shaw and Pinern and Henry Arthur Jones. But Lionel and I had followed no model. Wc had flown high, and perhaps too high. We had taken the story of a man who, seeing the hope of his country in a return to democracy, applies it to his own life and becomes, as his grandfather was before him, a cobbler, By day he mends shoes, and at night he lives among his books and studies the stars. There comes to his little shop a summer visitor—a girl who wants her slippers mended. She is the ward of a rich aunt and has been brought up in luxury and idleness. The cobbler falls in love with her, and the dramatic action is based on his fight, lo bring the girl to his own democratic point of view and so save her from a richer suitor. The whole thing was, as I have intimated, crude—the effort of two boys who knew nothing of the stage. But there was imagination in it, and now and then it. .struck 12. I had written the speech in the third act where the cobbler made his plea with the girl for a simpler life, end I had written with a pen of fire. It needed, however, more than a fast-driven pen to make the situation plausible. It. needed, indeed, genius- Yet the work was strong in some parts. I have the old play now; I wish I had the boy's fine fervor, as he dashed off the lines! My audience grouped itself about the hearth in a half circle. Mimi was in Olga's high-backed chnir with tho bearskin a background for her beauty. Andy lay on the rug at her feel. Thus enthroned among tbe shadows—for there were only the candles and the light of the fire —Mimi took on a mysterious aspect. She seemed less a girl, more of a goddess. Olga had chosen a deep chair a little removed from the others. I think she slept while I read. I am sure she was not, in the least interested. Standing on the hearth-rug, with a tall candle set on the mantel to light my manuscript, I began to read- Now and then, when a sentence was obscure, I lifted the Skirts Reveal Stop yof New Gowns for Evening Cerise taffeta evening gown with pleated ruffle trimming, wide skirt, new shoulder line. SKIRTS TELL tbe story of the new evening gowns, says a well- known national magazine. Skirts that billow and swirl in tulle or chiffon. Skirts that swish and purr in taffeta and metal. Skirts that enhance the smallness of a neat little waist and bring out the beauty of a neckline and shoulders. Typical of the ncw formal frock is this dress of cerise taffeta, featured by this same magazine. It has a neat, close-fitting bodice which buttons closely down the front, a new shoulder treatment and full skirt. Tiny pleated ruehings in swirl design decorate the skirt which has By LISBETH the popular up-in-front movement. They also outline the decolletage and the shoulder pieces. QUEEN SETS STYLES Queen Elizabeth of England has, I am sure, been associated in most of our minds with a rather—well, not exactly meek, person—but at least one who adapts herself easily to others and amenable to those with decided opinions. It overjoys me, therefore, to see how she is influencing British fashions, swinging them over to her preferences. The queen, a writer tells us. is not wearing clothes that are chosen for her by English dress makers and which are strictly Pari sian. She insists that her clothes be the type she knows she wears well, usually British clothes. She prefers individuality to rubber1 stamp garments, and is thus creating a vogue for originality and distinction. At the recent Court Ball held in Buckingham palace, she wore a silver tissue gown from Hartnell, London dressmaker. It was made, as reported, with "off-the-shoulder neckline bordered with silver lace and encrusted with synthetic dii monds. The skirt was very full and fitted over the hips." candle. I was perfectly conscious of the picturesquoness of my pose. I was conscious, too, of my skill as a reader. I had inherited my father's gifts of a good voice and an impassioned manner. I felt that when Mimi heard that speech in the Ihird act she would see me with new eyes. And the others would see me. I knew the speech almost by heart, and when 1 came to it, I gave )t with all the power and passion in mc. I was aware that. Stiles Sanderson's gray eyes were shining, behind his glasses; that. Katherine Merrill was poised like a hawk ready to pounce. Andy Fuller did not. Ink at. me; he lay motionless on tho rug at. Mimi's feet. Bernice and Lionel sat side by side on an oak settle, and her hand was in his. And Mimi, still a? a statue, her lips parted, leaned forward with intent face- -listening, When 1 finished, thnre was applaud, and Stiles Sanderson said' "It is very well done" 'How arc you going to end it?" Bernice asked. "Oh. of course the cobbler will get tho girl," Katherine Merrill said, in her clear, high voice. "People must, have a happy ending'' And then Mimi flung out; "Oh, I don't want him to get her. It sounds all right, in a play, but do ynu think a girl would be happy without any of lhe luxuries she love?'' What, could he give her— that would make up for them?" And I flung back at her; "The question is, what could she give him? Love doesn't, ask—it. gives!" Andy Fuller rat up. "I agree with Mimi- Your man is a cad; and he is asking everything--" Wo faced each other -two tall, young cockerels. "Real life isn't like that." Andy went. en.

For Ihe first time, hearing it set forth in his scornful voice, it seemed preposterous to mo. _"! told Jerry it. wasn't real life." Lionel said. "but. it sterns to me prettv fine." Stiles Sanderson agreed with him heirtiiy. "It is fine. And what, after all. is real life"" "Oh, things that, reallv happen, Stiles," said Kathrrin. "Ynu know that" 'Things can happen In our souls as well as to our bodies," Stiles said, "It. seems to me that Chandler has stripped his man and woman of all that is tawdry. He has found the truth." Thpy discussed it holly after thaf, but I took no part in it. I was feeling a reaction from my high moment. The cobbler's plea had fallen on dull cars. Mimi had not been touched by it. She had ranged herself on the other side of the argument, and Andy wng hor advocate. They stood, as it were, together, Stiles was insisting: "Chandler has dune a big thing: you'll all■ see it some day, The world needs more poets. It is the dreams of poets which are, after all, the prophecies." I saw Mimi glance at me and look away again. And her voice came with an edge of weariness. "I wonder if the rest of you are as tired as I am." Olga's voice, heavy with sleep, said, "Do you know what time it is9" "I know I'm starved," Lionel said "Well, there's everything in the refrigerator," Olga told him, "and I'll make some coffee." We adjourned to the kitchen, and I helped Olga make the coffee Mimi, with her train always in the way, cut bread for toast, Andy broiled the bacon, Bernice scrambled eggs, nnd the rest of the crowd set. the table. It seemed all very fantastic to me. I was not, hungry, and when they trooped into the dining room I did not. follow them. I went, out of doors where the wind blew chill. Light was creeping through the forests, but so faint was it that the trees seemed spectral, unsubstan tial. 1 walked under them. I did not know where I was going. I only knew that my mind was in a turmoil; that the events of the day had crowded in upon me until I was tente with conflicting emotions. Then through the silence of the woods a voice called, "Jerry."' I turned and saw Mimi coming toward mc- Suddenly the ghostly forest seemed to enfold us. Only with an effort could I keep myself from holding out my arms to her, so confident did I feel that I had drawn her to me. "Jerry," she said breathlessly, as she came up, "what made you run away from the others?" "What marie you?" "I don't know." She was gazing at me in a half-dazed fashion. "I --looked for you, and you weren't there—and I came to find you." "And now that you have found me—what?" "I want you to go back with me --it is freezing out. here, and everybody is drinking coffee—" She stopped, then went on hurriedly: "But I didn't come to say that. I— loved your play, Jerry." She was close to me and laid her hand on my arm. I laid my own hand over it. "Yet you laughed at it." "No! But it was so true that I haled it. . . . Love might be like that, Jerry, if there were any men in the world like your cobbler." I stood looking down at her, "There might be a man." "No, no! Oh! What do you know about men? And you ought not to write of the kind who don't exist. You'll make women think that some day they may meet them, and the kind they meet are —Andy Fullers!" She flung his name at me with scorn, I was surprised at her' frankness, Yet I will say this, that then and ever after she was frank with me. ! "Why not let the Andy Fullers Mother Worried . .

The husband started going astray a few months before the now six- month-old baby was born. His wife, out in the ear with the children, saw him and the girl entering a beer parlor hand-in-hand. Husband and wife are separated now, but the husband writes he wants his wife and children back She feels her respect for him is gone, and she doesn't know what to do, She has no means of support The girl in the case declares she loves him. I can't help feeling that a husband who acts as yours has done is a small spoiled boy grown up. He feels he must have a thing because he want it, regardless of consequences. It happens so many times, but I think the wisest thing is to go back to him. or allow him to come to you. Daughter of Queen Victoria Still Attends Christmas Bazaars, Sales By MOLL1E McGEE Canadian Preu Correspondent LONDON, Dec. 19 (CP)-Princess Louise, Duchess of Argyll, though ln her 90th year, has taken her share of the task of royalty In opening bazaars and sales that precede Christmas. As the wife of the Marquis of Lome, Princess Louise, a daughter of Queen Victoria, spent her early 30's in Canada as chatelaine of Rideau Hall, Ottawa, when her husband was governor-general of Canada, (1872-78.) At the opening of the Exhibition of British Handicrafts the Princess showed time has in no way dimmed her interest in the arts since the days when she herself excelled as a painter and sculptress. She made a little impromptu speech, then went around and bought Christmas presents at the stalls. It was afterwards remarked she did not forget to give patronage where it encouraged fine artistic effort or might charitably do most good. One of her purchases was a gay feather mount for a tailored hat made by a woman who raises bright plumaged birds in an aviary for this purpose. She also bought two silver brooches of old Scottish design, a finely tooled leather handbag, handmade lace, a boudoir lamp made by an ex-soldier, scarves woven by crippled girls, The Exhibition of British Handicraft is as far removed from tha usual bazaar as an art exhibition.

Down to the wood block printed live-cent Christmas cards and the hand-made wooden buttons, every item was designed and made by an expert amateur.

I feel that if you do not take him back ond try to keep the home together for his and the children's sake, you may regret it. It is not an easy thing to do, I know, and if you cannot agree to let the matter drop as far as words go. when you are in your home again, better not go back. The children need their father and mother and home, but it will not help if that home is a place of discord. Do you think you are big enough to carry on for the children's sake?

The idea is lhat the gloves are somewhat clumsy looking and when removed the hand looks slender in comparison, Better Ways . . . Less Stress Put Tongue by Doctor By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. O. In the old days nearly the first thing the doctor did after hearing a patient's story was to say "Let me see your tongue." Of late years, less and less stress is put upon this, because there are better ways of finding out the functional state of the stomach and bowels and nutritional diseases in which the tongue is changed. Perhaps, however, there will be a regular revival in the practice of tongue examination because we are urged by several prominent men to pay more attention to it. Often a physician will simply look at the tongue and immediately fon- get what he has seen, or else make no mental notation of its significance. The Chinese have two words that mean "look": one is simply "to look at" and the other is "to look at and see" both. "Raw, red tongue, raw, red gut" was an old saying. The white tongue was looked on as a sure sign that the stomach was out of order and lhat a dose of calomel was needed. This, however, is not believed any more, and it is known that many persons have a coated tongue in health, especially smokers. WHY FURRED TONGUE The furred tongue is simply due to thickened epithelium covering the papillae of the tongue, plus some bacteria. The condition has been described as occurring in several stages: first, the dotted tongue; second, the coaled or loaded tongue: third, the white strawberry tongue; next, the furry or shaggy tongue, anc last, the dry, brown, crusted tongue The wearing of an upper plate after a time frequently causes a smooth, polished, bright red tongue without pain or inconvenience. Pigmentation of the tongue is an uncommon abnormality, but in certain cases of Addison's disease, thl tongue may be covered with black patches. Medical text-books have fumblef around with the subject of burn ing tongue but, this need nn longe: be classified as a mystery.

"I don't know, Jerry. I am afraid I should." We stood there in the spectral forest, staring at, each other. At last Mimi said: "Oh, let's go in. They'll be looking for us." They were looking for her—or, at least, Andy Fuller was. He same upon us suddenly, and when he saw her wilh her hand on my arm, anger leaped into his eyes. But his voice was unruffled.

Again the flame leaped up, but he still kept his voice to lhat unruffled note. "Well, why didn't you tell him in a warmer place? You'd better get back to the fire. Ana everybody is going to bed." "Oh. why go to bed." she demanded, "when the day is just beginning? I could stay out here forever." (To Be Continued) dUntL tfoA, diouMwivoL By MRS.

Fernie Introduced to Carol Singing by School Singers FERNIE, B.C—English Yule-tide carol singing, on a large, scale, entered this quiet mountain town Thursday for the first time In the history of the town when the High School Carollers, a group of about 100 high school singers, visited several sections of the city singing the old favorite carols. Regardless of where the group stopped, the hospital, a residential area,'the school or the centre of the business section, a crowd soon gathered and warmly applauded the excellent efforts of the singers. "Holy Night", "The First Nowell", "Adeste Fidelis", "O Little Town of Bethlehem", "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing", "While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks by Night".

CHRISTMAS CHEER FOR THE KIDS Not much more than a few days to go to Christmas and much money is still required by the Nelson and district Christmas Cheer fund. The fund is not for relief. It is for Christmas CHEER. It is to take something of the true Christmas spirit into homes which otherwise would lack all but the bare necessities of life. It is particularly for the women and children. The earlier donations are sent in the better. Lists of those who are to benefit from the fund are being made up. Every man has at times in his mind the ideal of what he should be, but is not. This ideal may be high and complete, or it may be quite low and insufficient; yet, in all men that really seek to improve, it is better than the actual character. Perhaps no one is so satisfied with himself that he never wishes to be wiser, belter, and more holy—Theo. dore Parker. CHINA IS RIGHT, JAPAN IS WRONG It is true, as apologists for Japan are claiming, that China got the jump on Japan in propaganda in connection with the Sino-Japanese war. But it is also true, and this Is the important,point, that China has the better case. Japan has irritation at Chinese boycotts of Japanese goods, for Chinese dislike of the Japanese and all their works. But China has reasons, irrefutable reasons, for disliking the Japanese and defending themselves against Japanese inroads to China economically and politically. Japan accuses the Chinese of having started the present war by firing on Japanese soldiers who were "innocently" maneuvering on ChineFe territory. But what on earth right had the Japanese army in China? Why was it there? The truth is clear. All the world knows it. All the world which has any true conception of morality in international affairs, or desire that right should have some protection against mere might, knows that Japan has not a leg to stand on. Japan's position is simply that it wants Chinese trade, that it wants Chinese territory, that it wants China's economic wealth in minerals, in coal, in power resources. It covets China's property. Its moral position is that of the footpad. i Wanting all these things and having a bigger and better organized army than China, one of the greatest navies in the world, an enormous air force and a people superstitiously ready to die at an emperor's nod, Japan has gone out to seize them—to rob China. In the process it matters not to Japan that many thousands of Chinese and Japanese should be killed, that many hundreds of thousands of human beings should be hurled through no fault of their own into a condition of misery for generations to come. Or even that it may bankrupt Japan financially as well as morally. It can go bankrupt if the worst comes to the worst; it believes its great industries, its great corporations, can make recovery- out of the ravished resources of China. Yes, Japan got into the propaganda field rather late, but it never had a case that should appeal to world opinion. China is right; Japan wrong. Two things, well considered, would prevent many quarrels; first, to have it well ascertained whether we are not disputing about terms, rather than things; and, secondly, to examine whether that on which we differ is worth contending.—Colton. TO BRING MORE PEOPLE TO NELSON It is a good idea of the Nelson Junior Board of Trade to give thought to measures for making Nelson still more attractive as a place of residence and as a place to which people from other parts of the district and from more distant points will delight to come, for visits long or short. Many things count in making a city delightful to those who reside in it. A good educational system, well-managed civic finances so that taxes may not be excessive, adequate public utility facilities, good streets, pure water and milk supplies, good sanitation and health services. These are fundamental. Then there are permanent recreational facilities, such as those provided by our climate, our lakes and rivers, our mountains and mountain streams and glaciers; our golf and tennis clubs, our civic centre, otir recreation grounds, our parks and bathing beaches. Again there is commercialized recreation. Theatres, musical organizations, boat and launch liveries, dances— the possibilities in this direction are about as endless as they are important. Tourist attractions that come from Nature will not alone do the work of building up Nelson's population. Industries, too, come into the picture. Nelson has too few. What is there, not now being produced in Nelson, which could be profitably manufactured here? Is there not some product similar to that of the B.C. Veneer works, which out of a hitherto unused locally grown wood is manufacturing material which finds customers all over Canada? To lake away the right of any citizen of Canada to appeal lo the courts of the hind against the exercise of arbitrary power is opposed lo the whole spirit of our institutions and the liberties we cherish.—Premier Mackenzie King.

North and South reached a contract of 4-Spades on this deal with South the declarer. After two passes, North bid 1-Dlamond, expecting his partner's response would probably be 1-Heart. However, South bid 1-Spade, which North raised, and after a bid of three by South, North took the contract to four. The club K was led and South won with the ace. It waa im- medlp tclv evident that the contract would be difficult with that lead, as a trump would be lost, two hearts, one club and possibly a diamond. The declarer, however, decided to go after the diamonds first before he lost control with trumps. He finessed the diamond 10, which held, then the diamond J and on the diamond A discarded one club. He then led the diamond Q, discarding his last club, and West trumped. West's club return was ruffed by South, who then led a small spade to the A, which picked up West's K.

YOUNG HOCKEY PLAYER8 DE8ERVE SUPPORT Cranbrook residents should take a much greater interest in the sport activities of the younger generation. By virtue of their splendid showing last season Cranbrook's Junior hockey team deserves much fuller support than was accorded It last winter. The youngsters need the moral and financial support that comes through good attendance of fans. When hockey games are called let us turn out in force and encourage the younger element in healthful recreation. Those who turned out to root last season received plenty of action for their money, and indications point to another successful season this winter. human side Inews/ 6Y EDWIN C.HILL Miss Frances—Cranbrook Courier. DAFOE a decent society produce a decent human race? My impression is that the weight of informed opinion holds that our hope lies in the scientific mobilization of our best intelligence, in health and education and that in time will prevail and we will then have true civilization, And therein lies the tragic failure of dictators. Out of their own heads, they set up a ruthless state, and then the state tries to make, a society. Whereas, the historic truth is that it is society which makes the state, and the state has no validity or justification unless it is so made. Society, making a state may proceed scientifically, as are the Dionne mentors—a state, trying to make a society, never can be scientific. Be that as it may, I thoroughly disagree with those Dionne kiddies about castor oil. Copyright 1937 Ccntral Press Canadian Humanity seen as likely to gain by lessons learned in scientific rearing of Dionne quintuplets Many centuries ago, there was a lucky baby who got a break like the Dionne quintuplets, He was the only baby of his time aad place whose name was relayed down through history. He became a great leader not because he was the big story of the day, but because of his great qualities. He was Moses. He was found in a wilderness, like the Dionnes. Pharaoh, like Dr. Dafoe with the quints, immured him from the world and supplied the best the age afforded to his nurture and education. The Israelites were slaves, but Pharaoh assigned Moses' sister, Miriam, to do nothing but care for the baby. That was a big concession in those days. It was an exciting story—Pharaoh's daughter finding the baby in the bull rushes. Old King Pharaoh must have thought Moses something quite unusual in the line of babies. He was. This illusion to the Dionne darlings was suggested by a brief news dispatch, landing amid war and rumors of war. It reported that the quints lap up castor oil just like milk. Nobody ever told them it was hard to take and hence it isn't. That news to a psychologist is just as exciting as a four-alarm fire to a fireman. FAR-REACHING EXPERIMENT More than 300 psychologists, doctors, specialists in child rearing, social scientists and what not join in a voluntary committee to help Dr. Dafoe anfl the three other guardians of the babies make the care and education of the quints the most unique and possibly enlightening laboratory experiment in all history. Not that they are making guinea pigs o-f the babies. The only experiment they are trying is to give them the absolute best that our civilization affords in cleanliness, diet, the care and nurture of body and mind and all that goes into ideal environment as we conceive it. So far the experiment has been a magnificent success. The quints are happy—and most fairy godmothers standing at their crib would have dealt them hapiness first of ali; they are strong and robust and they have beautiful little bodies; they have normal intelligence, without precocity; they are normally obstreperous and when they want something they go after it, but they aren't spoiled. These frail, prematurely born babies, appearing in a winter hight in a forlorn shack in a virtual wilderness — short-enders if any babies ever were—have been given in a little more than three yeara a life equipment such as no little princess ever had in ages past. Science was humbled by the miracle. It is responding by doing its utterly disinterested best to learn whether, through this dispensation, we may discover the educational clue to a better humanity. HAVE IDEAL SURROUNDINGS Scientists watching the frolicing babies make a lot out of that castor oil business. There's a count for environment. Much of our fear and foolishness may be just handed down, and may have little or nothing' to do with innate human qualities. So far, environment has taken all the tricks in this tryout. The superior health and happiness of the quints, as contrasted with that of other children of the same region, have been induced by an ideal environment. The above contrast is not only observable, but it is a startling indictment of our civilization. In the nursery of the quints there is warmth, light, cleanliness, color and merriment and there is education scientifically adapted to the stimulation of the child mind. . A mile or two away and many miles away as well, there are tumbledown, badly heated, badly ventilated old school houses and homes with children suffering from neglected ailments, and improper diet. The quints arc charu- bim and seraphim, compared to these boys and girls who "weren't lucky enough to arrive in fives. Old-fashioned people say that if you bring up a child in cotton wool and then turn him loose in the world as it is, he will be a total loss. True as gospel. The quints, of course. will be eased out gently on a mil- ion-dollar cushion and the experiment may throw little light on the adaptation of a perfectly reared child to a disillusioning and wicked world.

SPORTING NEWS LANCASTRIANS UPSET DOPE, TAKE GUNNERS INTO CAMP BY 2-0 SCORE LONDON, Dec. 19 CCP Cable)- Arsenal's upward thrust, expected to put the Londoners at the top of the English Football league at the week-end, received instead a bad setback by the low-placed Liverpool team. Playing on their own ground, the Lancastrians blanked the Gunners 2-0. Until Saturday Arsenal had lost only one point in its last Jive matches and the defeat at Liverpool came as a real surprise. As a result the Gunners fall into a tie with three other clubs for fourth position in the league table. Brentford and Birmingham played a scoreless draw and the former retains leadership wilh a one-point margin over Bolton Wanderers and Leeds United, both successful at the week-end. Freezing weather that disrupted Scottish football was felt less severely in England but many grounds were frozen and the standard of play suffered accordingly. Decreased attendances were general although 40,000 saw the Arsenal-Liverpool tussle, ARSENAL UNLUCKY Liverpool dominated play but Ar senal was unlucky to lose Boulton, young goalkeeper, through injury in the second half. Hapgood. international fullback, went between the sticks and preserved a clean record. Before the interval Shafto and Ni-uwenhuys sent in the counters that gave Liverpool victory. On a ground that was more like a skating rink, Brentford was lucky to divide the spoils at Birmingham. In the first minute the visiting goalkeeper, in saving, sent the ball to Morris. The winger sent in a splendid centre but Dearson was too eager and headed over the bar. Playing in his first match, Hardwick, 17-year-old Middlesbrough back, put through his own goal, sending Bolton Wanderers well on the way to a 2-1 decision. Milson soon put the Wanderers two up and Camsell reduced the margin before half time. There was no further scoring but Middlesbrough did everything but tally in the second period. Leeds United gained a fine 2-1 victory over Manchester City to keep on level terms with Bolton in the race for the championship. faMknsL SpDhL Spot By M.W. straight year led the league in the fielding averages, placing three of their fielders—Gehringer, 2b; Bill Rogell, ss; and Marvin Owen, 3b— at the top of their respective positions. Although the league is noted most for its home run slugging, the circuit as a whole improved in fielding in 1937 over the previous season; The grand average of the circuit for 1937 was .972, a point above lhe 1936 figure. Detroit's top-place average was .976, which was also just one point up from the previous year. For once lhe lowly St. Louis Browns had something to cheer j aboul, for Harland Clift at third base created a new all-time major league record for most chances accepted at lhe hot corner in a season wilh CO?. Clift also created a new record for most assists at third base with 405. He also participated in 50 double plays as a third-baseman for a new major league record. In addition to this, Clift tied the league record with nine assists at third base in a game with Detroit. This assist mark was duplicated by Hoy Hughes of Cleveland against Philadelphia and by Marvin Owen of Detroit against lhe same club. Hughes also tied the major league record for most putouts by a second baseman in one game when he made 11. Although many of the big first- basemen are nol rated so agile at fielding, their averages are always high because of the number of thrown balls they catch. Jimmy Foxx of Boston was high man among Ihe regular first-sackers in 1937 with a percentage of .994. Five regulars were ahead of him the preceding season, while Zekc Bonura, the 19,36 leader, dropped to seventh among the regulars in 1937 with a mark of .989. At second base, Charlie Gehringer set the gait for the fourth straight year. He had lo watch his cues to get a .986 average, which was only two percentage points ahead of Jack Hayes of Chicago. That was the highest percentage Gehringer has made since be came into the league, and stands up well with his year's record as leading hitter of the circuit. Gehringer had two stretches of 23 and 22 games respectively without an error. Another Tiger, Marvin Owen, was a fielding leader when he registered at .970 percentage at third base, while Bill Rogell of the same team for the third year in a row led at shortstop with a .968 percentage. At third base, Red Rolfe of lhe Yankees, last year's leader with .957, was second this year with a .962 percentage. Bill Dickey of New York rose to the lop among the catches with a percentage of .991. It was the third time he had led the circuit in fielding. Last year he was third with .976. Mike Kreevich of Chicago had the best year in the outfield with a fielding record of .988, just one percentage point ahead of consistent Sammy West of St. Louis. Joe Di Maggio of (he Lankees led in putouts in the outfield with 413. This, however, was G. H. MUMM & CO. Societc Vinicole de Champagne Seccesseur Champagne A Christmas toast . . .

Since then ho lias gone 81 games without an error, accepting during that time 150 chances on 30 putouts and 120 assists. In contrast to this consistently flawless play, John "Buddy" Lewis of Washington tied the league record for most errors in a game at third base with four in a game with Philadelphia. Nevertheless, Washington was the best doubleplay team in the league with 181, which was above the 174 mark of Chicago in 1936.

When Trainer Tom Daly of Toronto Maple Ixiafs is really hitting the ball in his verbal efforts, it's nearly impossible to keep him from crashing into print, too, Garbed for the street, Leafs on Friday were about to leave the dressing-room on completion of their practice session. Up spoke Daly in unusually serious manner: "Now I want nobody to leave this room without first puttin' his auty- graft on them three little hockey sticks over on the table. They're for a good cause." Then he paused just long enougli lo enable the lads to build mental pictures of the sticks being raffled off to buy Christmas presents for starving orphans or something like that. This being accomplished, he quickly destroyed the nice Yuletide visions by roaring out: "That big lug of a Horner is going to peddle thim fer a dollar apiece!" Yet I still think the best expression coined by Daly this week was at Thursday's practice when, sighing for the "good old days," and comparing the hockey past with its present, he snorted: "Harumphh— the game's gone PERFUME."-Tom- my Munns in Toronlo Globe and Mail. ...

ALONG TRAIL'S SPORTS WAY We are wondering why every hockey player or coach who is invited lo come to Trail, soon after arriving here is dissatisfied, dissatisfied with most everything. Before going farther ,wc wish to discard from this discussion, fellows who come out here broke, looking for work, and damned glad to get il. We wish to refer to those lads who left their home town with a reputa-* tion and who were able to live up to it on arrival here. Now we all know that there arc many players in Trail today because an effort was made hy the Trail Senior Hockey club to bring them here, to build up a good club, with tbe hope every club in Canada has —and must have to win games—the hope of winning tbe Holy Grail of amateur hockey, the Allan cup. Trail has made for itself a reputation of being a British Columbia championship team. Other clubs have won It, but through the years, Smoke Eaters have led. Too, the opposition In this province Is not much when compared to other provinces. By that we mean there are far fewer teams which have to battle it out for supremacy, to reach the provincial top spot- That means that a puckster who can make a berth on the Trail Smoke Eaters has a better chance of getting into the Allan cup finals than he would have on a team in some town on the prairies. Mind you, more frequently prairie teams go farther, or have done so in the past, than B.C. teams, but the road to the provincial championship of a prairie province is longer. So, for this reason mainly, we are told, prairie hockey players who get an offer to come to Trail, jump at it. But they soon express regret at having come to Trail. Elmer (Pipe) Piper, the Trail Smoke Eaters mentor, doesn't think it so "hot" in Trail. For one thing, he tells us, that he's working In a lumber yard. It is obvious that Trail has material on its rosier that is up in that stratum of which all clubs take notice. It is so that the residence rule does not permit them to play elsewhere his season, but if Trail has a team lhat goes places, it will be even more difficult to keep the boys here next season. North Battleford, Sask., had an Allan cup team last winter. The boys didn't accept the opportunity to travel but found themselves spots in the Dominion while their reputation was still on the griddle. On the other hand, Kimberley boys, after seeing the world, and no doubt receiving offers from many quarters, returned home (not all of course) to help the town which made it possible for them to travel, build up a club this year, that prior to its 6-3 defeat by Lethbridge on Wednesday night, had a great reputation without having played a game. It Is said that Kimberley is In a better position than Trail to make better offers. On the other hand you have heard it often said that a straw boss on the "hill" has working for him, so many men and so many hockey players, It's a problem that would be a task for a man like Solomon to solve. If a hockey player is given loo much consideration, he is spoiled; when not enough, he is discontent- PAGE NINE LETHBRIDGE RAMS HOME SEVEN COUNTERS TO WORLD TITLISTS' THREE FIRST GAME KIMBERLEY Condition and Finish" at Net Produce Victory DYNAMITERS TIE SCORE IN THIRD cd. Whatever club makes him the best proposition, he snatches it. Still, you never hear of a club hindering a player from going places. His club and zone representative of tlie C.A.H.A. always sanction "going up" without hesitation. Many players have gone from the Kootenays up into the "big time". And for their sake, we hope lo sec more. It is an easy matter lo satisfy a bunch of scrubs, but when you're handling talent, it's a severe trial. ... Piper thinks that the players' boxes in the Nelson arena' are the "clear rig" for changing players while play is in progress. "Why, we beat the Nelion club by-changing player, fait," he laid, "and having two or three changes to their one. At one time In the game they had men out without a change for five whole minutes. Their tonguei were hanging out and our boys were fresh. But we can't do that in the Trail rink. Those boxei aren't at all capable of that. Seats muit be situated In the boxes to that playen may watch the progren of the game and rest at the lame time." ... We hear the hockey club wants a penally box with a door leading to the ice, built in the Trail rink. At present there is no penalty box. Players are put into their own box when penalized, which makes it hard for a coach to tell who's who, ... "We must give the rink management credit for one thing, and that is the announcing system. Fans and the press appreciate official announcement of the scorer and those who assist and the times goals are scored. Too, the .announcement of players' names, positions and numbers at the start of the game is quite an innovation in these parts. Eddie Murdoch makes a pretty good job at announcing, too. Lawi of ice hockey ai adopted by the Canadian Amateur Hockey association (revised to October, 1937), continued: "No. 2. Tlie rink shall be. as nearly as possible, 200 feet in length by 85 feet in width and shall be surrounded by a wall or fence of wood, not more than four feet in height and not less than three and a half feet measured from the surface of the ice. The fence shall be constructed in such a manner that its surface shall be of uniform color, preferably white, and shall be free of any obstruction or object that may cause injury. "No. 3. Ten feet from each end of the rink and in the centre of a line drawn across yie width of the ice, a regulation goal post and net shall be set in such a manner that it cannot be moved. The goal posts shall be of approved material four feet in height (measured from the surface of the ice) and set six feet apart (measured from the inside of the posts). A cross-bar of the same material as the goal posts shall extend from the top of one goal post to the top of the other. Between the goal posts on the ice shall be marked a red line, called the 'goal line', the width of the diameter of the goal posts. The goals shall bo set so that the 'goal line' is ten feet out from the end of the rink. "Each goal shall be provided with a net of approved design. KIMBERLEY, B. C, Dec. 19- Better condition and more finish around the nets gave the fast-skating Lethbridge team a smart 7-3 win over Kimberley Dynamiters in the opening game of the Kootenay Hockey league on Kimberley ice on Saturday. Penalties also had a lot to do with the result as the Dynamiters made eight trips to cooler compared to three for the Leafs. Three Lethbridge goals came in less tha nthree minutes as two Dynamiters lanquished in the cooler. Sixteen hundred fams jammed the arena to greet the teams and they were treated lo a fast game which saw the better team win on the night's play. For 15 minutes of the middle period and 10 minutes of the final the Dynamiters looked like the squad of old as they hemmed the Leafs in their own territory and peppered Young from all angles. However their finish was not good and they missed the mark on many chances. The visitors scored the only goal of the first period after four minutes of play as Ken Stewart took a rebound off the boards to beat Horn- quist cleanly. The visitors were two up after just one minute's play in the second period Ben Hayes breaking through cleanly to score from close in. Les Christensen and Bob Kirkpatrick combined beautifully lo put Lethbridge three up five minutes later. ALL EVEN Facing a three-goal deficit seemed to waken the Dynamiters up and they settled down to play real hockey. Ralph Redding from Pratt and "Red" Goble from Burnett reduced the lead before the period ended. The Dynamiters evened it up midway through the final period, Chris Sorenson tapping in a perfect pass from Wilson. Then condition began to tell and penalties added their toll. Lethbridge ran in four markers in quick succession with Jimmie Mclndoe (21, Johnny Ursaki and Kirkpatrick doing the sniping. Lethbridge showed a fast-skating, hard-checking aggregation lhat will make all teams in the loop step if their play on Saturday is any indication. While the game was on the whole clean, checking was hard and sticks were carried rather high at times, but no serious arguments ensued. The teams— Lethbridge — Young; Onufry- chuk, Cromier and Stewart; Kirkpatrick, Mclndoe, Ursaki, Christen- son. Tickle, Anderson and Hayes.

Dec. 19 (CP Cable)- Scottish football league schedule- makers are—like the weather—in a fog. Their weekly rounds of matches the past two Saturdays have been laid low by the vagaries of the weatherman—and all this with the crowded year-end program in the offing. The weatherman went on the "rampage" a week ago when the country's heaviest snowfall in years —plus sprinkling of fog in the country—cancelled hostilities in three of 10 major-division games and eight of the nine minor-loop matches. On Saturday, snow and frosl- bound grounds kept players on the sidelines in seven billed first- division battles and five second- league contests. With 26 minutes left to play in the Dundee-Ayr United tangle on the former's ground, the referee stopped play owing to condition of tlie turf. St. Bernards and Montrose, second div ision clubs, were forced to stop after six minutes of the second period. Many clubs wero set to play off their matches despite the snow and frost but a den.se fog descended, making play impossible. WEEK-DAY GAMES Old-timers say it is the worst holdup in 25 years — both in ft "weather" and financial way. Many contests must now be played during the week which will considerably deercase gate receipts. A shuffling of leading clubs resulted out of the two major circuit matches finished. Celtic, in a third place tie with Motherwell, went to Edinburgh and blanked Hibernians 3-0. The victory hoisted ths Celts over Glascow Rangers and two points from Hearts. Held to a 3-3 deadlock at Arbroath, Aberdeen took the sixth position on the championship standing, four points behind Falkirk and nine back from Hearts. <3^^^TCH WHISKY j^i., ,; / wmmi' vM' BOTTLED IN SCOTLAND This advertisement is not published by the Liquor Control Board or by the Government of British Columbia. 1 - _^_MB_M_M mmmmmmm.

C, Dec. 1»-Cres- ton Choral society made an auspicious bid for public approval ln their initial appearance at the new Catholic hall, Tuesday evening. The audience was large and appreciative of the program of ten numbers, which was nicely balanced as to vocal and Instrumental offerings. Reeve Col. E. Mallandaine presided and spoke of tlie asset such an organization must be to any community, and complimented the members of the society on the unselfish service they render admirers of good music in the whole Creston district. Mrs. Nelson L. Ball, the society's leader-accompanist, filled the dual role admirably. Tlie three numbers by the society under her direction were creditably rendered, while her piano solo—her own arrangement of "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing'" wu a finished popular rendering of this oldtime I favorite. Mr. Ball, who is also a j newcomer to Creston audiences, j pleased with hl« two vocal selections, "Trade Winds" and "The Wast-1 ed Crust." Miss Frances Knott wu enthusiastically received in "Winter Lullaby" and "Four Leaf Clover." Sharing honors with her were Mrs. H. S. j Currie with "Brown Birds Staging" _and "One Alone" and Harold Lang- 'ston who happily chose "On the Road to Mandalay" and "Ctn't You Hear Me Calling, Caroline." Enjoying equal popularity . and | rounding out the evening were the mixed trio of Mrs. Harold Langston, Miss F. Knott and Mr. Ball, presenting "The .Canadian Boat Song" and "Lullaby." Violin solos by Alfrod Moores "6th Air Varle," and "A Dream.' Sextette, Mrs. Currie, Misses D. Trevelyan and W. and N. Cart- wright, Messrs. W. J. and P. R.

Toronto Stock Quotations Steels Lead Wall SI. Rally NEW YORK, Dec. 19 (CP)—Steels led the stock market in a selective rally Saturday and many issues pushed up fractions to two points. While closing prices were under the best in numerous instances, late profit and tax selling was well absorbed. United States government concern over the critical Japanese situation, involving bombing of the American gunboat Panay, aroused thoughts of a rearmament program which would benefit especially steel and aircraft makers, as well as other lines. At the same time a sharp drop in steel production was forecast for next week due to shutdowns for Christmas. Dealings were slow from the start but picked up a bit in the final hour. Transfers were around 500,000 shares. Further gains in United States government issues encouraged quiet demand in other sections of the bond market.

Chicago Wheal Market Quiet CHICAGO, Dec. 19 (AP)-Wheat prices rose almost a cent a bushel at one stage Saturday but then backed down, practically erasing, the gains. Buying largely credited to previous sellers who covered here in sympathy with an advance of Win' nipeg prices stimulated the price upturn. The markets was quiet, however, and buying power lacked the aggressiveness necessary to maintain gains in the absence of strongly bullish trade news.

Dec. 18 (CP)-Interest in Canadian gold stocks livened up this week and buying expanded with United States investors participating at advancing prices. Base metal and western oilstocks also pushed ahead moderately while industrials weakened narrowly. Heavy recent buying in the big golds is credited by brokers mainly to New York interests. Slowing down of business in the Unitea States and fear that industrial stock prices will reflect declining profits, is said to be encouraging : witching from industrials to the yellow metal stocks. Dome stood out in week's operations, advancing $4.35 to over $55. the stock's high price since November 1936. Lake Shore advanced $2, Mclntyre $2.50 and Buffalo- Ankerite sold up $1 to $1350, a record price. Moneta registered new high ground at $2.22. International Nickel bulged to $45, its top price since the break of Oct. 19, and recorded a net gain of $1.50 for the week. Noranda showed a $3 advance to $52.50 and Consolidated Mining and Smelting added 50 cents. Royalite hopped up to the $50 mark yesterday, the best price registered since July. In the interval it had dropped well below $30. Okalta advanced 37 cents to $1.89 in heavy trading. Calgary-Edmonton advanced 25 cents to $3, Home 14 cents to $1.55 and Vulcan nine cents to $1.31. Cheaper issues, including Davies, Calmont and Foothills, moved ahead. Interest lagged in the industrials and nearly all the inter-listed leaders reflected New York uncertainty by losing ground. 30 Industrials 20 Rails 20 Utilities 40 Bonds Dow-jones Averages High Low 126.92 31.94 21.64 125.16 31.58 21.38 Close Change 126.63—up 1.65 32.91-up .48 21.56-up .14 93.55-up .11 Egg Prices Drop on Cily Market A sharp decrease ln the price of eggs, grade "A" largely dropping as much as eight cents a dozen, marked Saturday's Vernon street market.

Brussels sprouts advanced from 15 cents a pound and two pounds for 25 cents to 20 cents a pound and two pounds for 35 cents. Spinach and green onions both left the market after a long season. More dried fruits, along with an increase in Jams, Jellies and several woven rugs made their appearance. In the miscellaneous section primula plants were priced at 75 cents. Chrysanthemums were over.
