The scheme colls for expenditure of $850,000 on park and recreational development and $155,000 on sewer construction. Some 1500 married men now on relief would be employed on the projects, receiving wages In cash for halftime work. By utilizing grants-in-aid announced at Ottawa recently by Hon. Norman Rogers, federal labor, minister; diverting to the program savings in relief costs ond appealing to the government* for a "rehabilitation' grant of approximately $200,000, the council hopes to undertake the parks' scheme without touching civic finances. Sewer construction would be fir nanced by diverting funds from various unexpended bylaw balances, with labor costs borne equally by the Dominion and provincial governments. The ambitious program calls for: 1—Adoption of the $350,000 park and recreation development program formulated some time ago by the parks board. This includes creation- of a 13-bole, 30-acre golf course in Stanley Park. 2—Development of a 28-acre park at the northeast' comer of False creek flats at a cost of $150,- 000. 3—Construction of a full size golf course on a 128-acre tract mostly tax sale land, in the Colllngwood district near Grandview highway and' boundary road. Cost would be about $177,642. 4—The $144,000 school board requirements for improvement of school grounds and playflelds In various parts of the city. 5—A sewer program to extend to undeveloped sectors In the city and stimulate home construction. Estimated cost is $100,000: The council decided to abandon temporarily projects which might be financed by a federal two par cent self-liquidating loan, such lis a civic auditorium, library and stadium.

Brown breezed across 'in front oi the net opening to push tne dick clear with his manly chest Clarence Reddick received his customary "applause" from the Trail fans when he called two successive offsides with delayed blasts of the whistle and the volume was amplified when Referee Welykochy over-ruled a call for a face-off at the Trail goal-line and faced off the disk at the Trail blue-line. The game continued in a deadlock with the puck bounding in every direction as opposing sticks filed at it at the same moment The tension split when Blazers to drive from short range but opened up the Simberley defence.

MUburo Oo. COLORFUL COSTUMES One of the most colorful and originality - emphasizing displays Nelson has seen in years marked the opening hour, during which costumed skaters occupied the ice. Spanish dons skated beside the inevitable hoboes, a living package of gum faced the competition of a skating bakery, sailors were impartial as they sksfted with Japan: ese geisha girls, redskins, Mexican senorltas and so on. Dutch, lads and lssses were prominent So were brothers and sisters who borrowed each other's clothes. There was a smart young jockey, a Swiss skier, court jesters,' a needle and thread and spool, Donald Duck, a smart young captain of the guards, a colorful Arab, an absent-minded professor lacking his trousers, a travelling lunch counter, a complete kitchen and dozens of others, representing all nations, all types, all ages and most ot the superstitious and fairy stories, ancient and modem. The participants ranged in age from a few years upward; some of them so young as to be barely able to skate. This year's costumes were smart, original and striking. COSTUME PRIZEWINNERS Prizewinners were: LADIES: Fancy dress — Miss Patricia Gallaher, Scotch lassie. Most original — Miss Mablc Little, bakery. , , Men Fancy dress — Gilbert Goucher, Spanish don. Most original — Linus Morrison, lunch counter. GIRLS Fancy dress — Glenna Lowes, Czecho-Sloyaklan peasant Most original — Lillian Hickey, package ot gum. COMIC Margaret Jane Mann, kitchen., BOY8 Fancy dress — Robert Emory, spool and thimble. Most original — James Creech, Little Boy Blue. COMIC Fred Stainton, the absent-minded professor. The judges were A. B. Gilker, Rotary club; Mrs. C. W. Tyler, Soroptomist club; and J. B. Stark, Kinsmen club. FIGURE SKATING Groups, quartettes, airs and soloists presented a fine skating program. The "Dance 14 Step", Involved eight skaters In pair dancing. The skaters were Miss Betty Laberee, William Wade, Mr. and Mrs. Warren Throop, Miss Gloria Sherwood, Dr, C. Hale Kimble, Miss Mary Ruth Barnes, Hans Johnsen, Miss Hazel Hller and Claude Maione. Two other group numbers, "Tango" and "Octette' 'also won the approval of the crowd. The figure skating program opened with The Spokane club's profession, , Hans Johnsen, presenting "Russian Gaueho", a colorful number emulating upon skates the difficult toot work characteristic ot Russian dances, including the spectacular leaps. His orthodox solo emphasized a number ot the difficult spin and circle movements In centre ice and on the outside circle, together with fast toot changing. HORNPIPE ON ICE _. The night's novelty was "The Sailor Man", by Mr. Johnsen—the sailor's hornpipe on skates. It was a smart bit of skating with the difficult foot work well done. Del Jones, young skater who won Nelson spectators last year, scored again In his speedy, graceful skating and his youthful showmanship. Mr. Wade In another solo, emphasized speed and grace in the' execution of his figures. Miss Barnes' solo, combing a suggestion of modern dance steps with the flowing grace of figure skating, was highly popular; and Miss Laberee's solo, in slower tempo than most of the visitors' presentations, was full of grace and beautifully neat The crowd liked it Tiny Jacqueline Hesse of Nelson presented a solo in which school and acrobatic figures were featured. PAIR8 SCORE "Rhythm on Ice" wu the title ot the pair number by Miss Sherwood and Mr., Throop. And the title was a thoroughly descriptive choice for their smooth work together. One of the outstanding presentations, combining excellent acrobatic work with studied; teamed pair skating was the "Double Bill and Betty" by Mr. Wade and Miss Laberee. Two silver medalists, winners ot North America's highest dancing honors — Miss Barnes and Mr. Throop — scored In an unusual skating offering, a combination fox trot. Their team work was remarkable. Another pair offering was the dance novelty by Miss Hilar and Dr. Kimble. The duo by Miss Itabelle Young and Miss Claire Hughes of Nelson was an interesting exhibition of pair skating by two young ladles who showed considerable promise. "Wave Ballet" was an attractive offering by Mrs. Throop, Miss Laberee, Miss Sherwood, and Miss Barnes. Wearing billowing blue, these ladies won applause tor the beautiful effects and tine team work In their presentation. FLAT RACE8 BOYS Eighteen and under — Bud Emery, first; Victor DelPuppo, second.

The actual use of undersea boats in wartime dates back to the American revolution and David Bush- nell's experiment with "the Tartle" but 'it was the United States civil war which saw the submarine prove its worth as a threat to shipping.

The Hunley was about 35 feet long, shaped like a cigar and built to boiler plate with a system of air and water tanks that faintly foretold the intricate diving mechanism of the modern submarines.

In operation, the submarine drove these teeth into the side of an unwary ship, then backed to a safe distance where a yank on a cord would trip a trigger and fire the torpedo' On the night of Feb. 17,1844, with eight men aboard, the Hunley slipped across Charleston harbor, slid close In under the hull of the Hous- atonic and sunk her spear deep into the vessel's side. Then she backed off and Lieutenant Dixon, the commander, pulled the trigger cord. In a few minutes the Housatonic plunged to the bottom and, through some last misfortune, the Hunley was caught beneath the stricken union Ship. None of those aboard ever came back.

Syrian Cabinet Threat lo Resign DAMASCUS, Syria, Feb. 17 (AP) —The Syrian cabinet was reported to have decided to resign today as the quarrel between the mandated state ind the French government over Syrian Independence assumed serious proportions. The government's decision to resign was said to have been made when the French high commissioner informed Premier Jamil Mardam Bey that France had rejected a Syrian request for Immediate control of key state services. Some observers in Damascus feared the situation might flare into open revolt against France. There were disquieting reports that unofficial German and Italian aid had been promised to Syrian nationalists if they took up arms. The quarrel revolves about France's refusal to ratify the treaty of Sept 0, 1936, changing Syria from a mandated state to an Independent nation. French officials were said to feel they must hold on to the strategic area at the eastern end of the Mediterranean at all costs as a base of operations in case ot war. Hints Witness Denies Attempt Destroy Informer NEW. YORK, Feb. 17 (AP) - Magistrate Hulon Capshaw, a defence witness In the retrial of James Hines, Tammany district leader, on lottery-conspiracy charges, today denied he had sought to destroy a "stool pigeon" whose information to police had Jeojard- ized the operations of the $20,- 000,000-a-year Dutch • Schultz policy lottery racket. "Did you want this police ■ Informant murdered?" demanded District Attorney Thomas Dewey. The witness replied "no" after Hines' attorney had moved vainly for a mistrial. Dewey's question was based On Magistrate Ca'pshaw's dismissal of policy charges against "Lulu" Ros- enkranz, a Schultz bodyguard, arrested in 1933 after he had allegedly tossed a bundle containing thousands of policy slips from an automobile pursued by police. A "stool pldgeon, it had been brought out in the court hearing before Magistrate Capshaw, had informed police Rozenkranz was carrying policy slips. "You asked the police officers who arrested Rosekrantz why they didn't subpoena their informant," Dewey said. "Don't you know police don't bring their sources of Information into court!" "No, I don't," Capshaw replied. "Isn't it a fact" demanded Dewey, "that the reason you wanted'this information brought into court was so that you could nave him destroyed because he was endangering the Dutch Schultz policy banks?" Capshaw cried out a denial. Dewey then Injected the word "murder" into the fast-quickening courtrom drama. The chief defence counsel, Lloyd Paul Stryker, jumped to his feet and aiked Judge Charles Nott for a mistrial—nis eighth such request in Hines' second trial. Stryker declared the "murder" question wai highly inflammatory and prejudicial. Judge Nott denied the motion, directing Capshaw to answer the question. "No," the witness, said. Capshaw Insisted his only intention-in seeking to bring the "stool Slgeon" into court was to get all the lets.

In the new firm J. Eric Sowerby, operator of Eric's Motor Service for several years, is jolped by Gordon G. Cuthbert, formerly with the Begg Motor company of Vancouver. They have taken over the Capitol Garage, which will be known as Red Star Motors. mm ; TEXACO TAKES PLEASURE IN Announcing THE APPOINTMENT OF SOWERBY-CUTHBERT Limited AS NEW OPERATORS OF RED STAR MOTORS The Texas Co. of Canada, Ltd. DISTRIBUTORS OF TEXACO PETROLEUM PRODUCTS m — = m IM Sowerby-Cuthbert Limited has the agency for Podge and DeSoto cars and Dodge commercial vehicles, and in addition to these will handle used cars and trucks. A well-eqijipped machine shop and parts department are features of the garage setup, being designed to provide all-round service! THE PRINCIPALS Mr. Sowerby has been in the garage business since 1920, at Calgary and Cranbrook before coming to Nelson In 1924. From that time until 1933 he was with the Nelson Transfer, and then opened his own shop on Josephine street. In 1935 he opened a new shop at 295 Baker street. Wide experience in all branches of the auto business has been gained by Mr. Cuthbert since he started in the business at Winnipeg in 1921 with Consolidated Motors. He joined the Begg Motor Company at Vancouver in the spring of 1926 and from Jhat time on worked in all departments. For the past two years he has been wholesale representative, working out of Kelowna. THE STAFF Frank McClements is a member „ I tion that the plan would succeed, were bound to have its effect on the committee's deliberations. JU8T ONE MORE CHANCE One day in December, 1937, our group met 100 young prisoners in the prison Chapel at Oakalla. Wa. told them of our plan to take a selected few to a new sort of institution where there would be no ban or'cells, ho prison uniforms—where they would be given an opportunity to learn a trade and fit themselves (or a decent manhood in decent society. Just one more chance! for a decent manhood in decent society Just ONE MORE CHANCEI I wish those who scoff at what' they call molly-coddling crlmin*, als could have seen the look on the faces of those lads in that little Chapel that day. I can't describe it, but lt brought a lump to my throat. We talked to those boys, most of them as fine looking chaps as our own boys. We put them on their honor not to escape. We told them, the future treatment' ol thousands' of other boys might depend on their .actions—that the success of the plan lay with themselves. Two days before Christmas, 23 of the boys along with Angus Mc-; Leod and a guard and cook were/ moved to the building I referred to. There was nothing to keep them there. Not a lock or bar—not even a fence. There were no prisoh uni-! forms. Nothing to identify them as prisoners. Not one boy tried to escape. Not one boy was untrue to his trust. Think that over when jjou begin to lose faith in the youth of today Careful selection has been made of those permitted to enter the In* stltution. We have available the serylces of a psychiatrist, a physician, a social service worker, ahd' a group of citizens. The physical and mental make-Up of the boys and their background is carefully scrutinized. On the: whole, is there a reasonable chance to rehabilitate them? That is the test. Our magistrates and judges cooperate to the full. A TRANSFORMATION Since its incorporation, SO youths ljave graduated from this institution. Most of them are employed and are making good. We have not a had a single case of return to life o{ crime. I could read you dozens of letters' from mothers and the boys themselves that would clutch at your heart-strings when they tell of tha change in outlook, the new hope and the joy and gladness In the' parents' hearts. The buildings and grounds have, been made a thing of beauty by the efforts ot the boys themselves, assisted by carpenter instructors.I This plan could not succeed with'* out the support and cooperation of the citizens as well. Our business men have responded magnificently. Members of board of trade, service clubs and, many others are doing wonderful work. Leaders in business are giving, their time to evening lectures, as* / sifting the regular instructors in fitting the boys for a useful oc*' cuoatlon on their release. When they are released, through a committee of business men an effort is made to secure employment for the particular occupation to which the graduating student (we do not use the word prisoner in relation to these boys) is fitted. We ask one of a group of active supporting citizens to act more or less as a Big Brother to one graduate; to advise him, to encourage him, and to give him a little of '.hat kindly consideration and treatment the lack of which causes his downfall In so many instances. And how nobly are they responding! . Citizens gf Washington, this plan | Is a success.

In keeping with other features of streamlining, the head lamps of the new Dodge Custom are recessed in the forward curves of the front fenders, flush with the surface. The arrangement results In everal advantages; one of these is that the driving lights, being 13 Inches farther apart, lllumlnuate the entire width of the road; another advantage Is that the lamps are closer to the ground where they give safer road Illumination in hazy or foggy weather. . The most Intriguing feature ot the Instrument panel Is the Dodge "Safety Signal" speedometer.

Army engineers are quietly developing anchorages and channels along the New England'coast, but they would be the last to admit that they were strengthening national defence. The fact that the work is in charge of army engineers has no significance, however, as they give their supervision to all public works of the United States government. For instance, every government power dam, every federal reclamation project, every plan for flood control, every tunnel, canal, or channel, is their work. Through that method of operation, the United States government has a great corps of engineers always in active practice, and ready for anything from building a Panama Canal—remember General Goethals?—to operating the Civilian Conservation Corps or C. C. C. plan of relief. So, whatever the object behind the constant dredging noted by Mr. Pillsbury, the anchorage at Corea, Me., not far from New Brunswick, and at Scituate on the "South Shore" of Massachusetts, are described by army engineers as "harbors of refuge" for fishing vessels and yachts. There is no mention that anchorages for fishermen might turn out to be convenient for destroyers and submarines, or that the 40-foot channel just dug to the Navy [Yard here is deep enough for a battleship! New England is a bastion pointing toward Europe. Just as every transatlantic flyer from Lindbergh to Corri- gan went by way of Newfoundland, skirting or flying over the Maritimes, vessels also find the shortest crossing by the Great Circle route. The chances are that any invasion from Europe would hit this section first. From the point of view of national defence, New England is an outpost on the Atlantic. Boston is the northernmost battleship port on the Atlantic coast of the United States. A defending American fleet would find Portland and Portsmouth valuable, as they would enable the refitting and refueling of smaller vessels without cluttering up Boston Harbor, but the base of operations inevitably would be established here. When these things are understood, the meaning of the dredging along the coast becomes clearer. Battleships burn oil for fuel. In the light of this the digging of 30-foot channels to oil terminals at Quincy and at Chelsea, in Boston Harbor, begins to make more sense. Those who think in terms of defending New England from battleships and planes say that there are five things the government can do to make the United States more secure! 1. Build fixed seacoast harbor defences at the principal ports. 2. Add strong anti-aircraft defences, 3. Have an' effective Atlantic fleet. ■ 4. Have a New England arm of the national air force. 5. Establish' a small, motorized mobile army, readily available, on the spot.- • ''. • Apparently, the first of these lines of defence is now being developed. V* Questions ??

W.J.L., Shoreacres — What to do with a tight milking cow to make her easier to milk? This trouble is generally caused by too strong sphincter muscles surrounding the teats. Some cases answer to the use of the teat-plug, made of lead or hard rubber, which is kept in from.one milking to another. This is used until the muscles are relaxed.

F.A., Trail—How can scratches be taken out of a varnished floor? A varnished floor if not too badly worn, may be renovated by rubbing the scratches with a rag dipped in linseed oil. If the scratches are too deep for such treatment, they may be sand-papered out and a new coat of varnish brushed over them. If the floor is badly worn, the best way is to remove as much of the varnish as possible and apply a fresh coat.

BOYCE MORGAN Barrie had to admit that his talk with Grace DalUnger had produced nothing of apparent value. He went back tovthe academy, but instead of going to his room, he went to the basement; and after talking persuasively to'the janitor for a moment or two/ he was admitted to the laundry. When he emerged a half hour later, his face wore a triumphant expression. He walked upstairs with something bulky concealed under, his coat, and went to the little room which Mrs. Rady, the housekeeper, used as an office. There he had a long talk with the housekeeper, and when he emerged, he was no longer carrying the bulky object. Deciding that he wanted to know Grace Dallinger better, he went to the lake with his skates the next afternoon, but he did not see her. HeTeturned the next two afternoons, and was finally rewarded by finding Grace skating with Snorter Parkinson. Barrie took a number of idle turns on the ice, and then skated up to the couple. "Hi, Grace," he said with a grin, ignoring Snorter. "How about your promise to skate with me?" . ' Grace looked doubtfully at Snorter, who was glaring at Barrie. Snorter's face still bore some evidence of his fight with Jack, and it was apparent that he had no friendly feeling for Jack's roommate. Snorter gripped the girl's arm and started to move away. "Grace is busy," he growled at Barrie. "Are you blind?" Barry immediately took a stroke and fell into step beside them. "Sure she's busy—for the time being," he retorted. "But she won't want to skate with you all afternoon, with guys like me around." Barrie was being purposely impudent and he watched Snorter narrowly. He saw the other boy's face flame with anger. "Nobody asked you'to be around," he cried. "Now get out!" "Oh, don't get touchy, Snorter," AN8WERS TO LA8T WEEK'S PUZZLES 1, Crossword Puzzle Solution. iias imam iOiS i H BBS m _ HE m H0 . mwam .

Her eyes were on him, and she seemed on the point ot accepting his invitation when Snorter gripped her arm even more tightly. 'You're coming with me, Grace," he commanded. "I want to talk to you." With that, he swung Grace about and half pulled her over the Ice. Barrie made a low bow as Grace looked back apologetically, but he noticed that she went with Snorter without a protest. "Well," Barrie mused to himself. "He certainly knows how to handle hit, I think I understand that setup a little better now." That night, Jack visited Kay at her school again, and when he returned he woke Barrie. "I was talking to Miss Vane tonight," he told him. "She's getting impatient about this ghost business, and wants to know if you are having any success in trying to solve the mystery. She wants to call In the police." "Oh, she does?" said Barrie sleepily. "Guess she doesn't think much ot my sleuthing abilities." "Well, you really don't seem to have got very far," said Jack doubtfully. "You mean I haven't told anyone how far I have got," Barrie retorted. "The fact is, I'm just about ready to tell who is responsible for that whole business. When' does Kay have her next exam?" "She has an English quiz the dav after tomorrow. She'll be studying for It tomorrow night." Then the ghost with the horrible face is liable to be on hand," said Barrie. "Do ?ou think you could fix it up with Miss Vane so that you and I could hide in Kay's room while she's studying tomorrow night?" "Why, I guess maybe I could." 'Try it. And it's important that none of the other girls know about it. Maybe we can catch Mr. Ghost in the act. Or should I say Miss Ghost?" Barrie snickered at the puzzled look on Jack's face. Then he .turned over to go back to sleep. (To Be Continued) Matches Reappear in Folder When Magician Wishes By THOMAS THE MAGICIAN We haven't had a match trick for several weeks, so here's a bit of "match-lc" to add to your collection. EFFECT; The entertainer shows a package of ordinary paper matches, the variety so popular now with advertisers. He opens the cover and tears out all of the matches therein, replacing the cover. He then throws the paper of matches on the table and asks someone in the audience to pronounce some magic words.over the package. After this is done, the magician opens the paper again, and lo-and-behold, it is once again full of matches. EXPLANATION: Most ol this variety of matches are manufac tured with four rows of paper matches in each folder. To prepare for this clever bit of, deception separate the first, two rows from the rear two, and leave a gap In between. Now, when you're ready to do the trick, open the paper and act as if you are turning back the flap, but really insert it between the two layers. Now show the matches, tear off the front two rows, and slide the flaip back over the two rows of stumps. Of course the cover has hidden the two back rows of matches, and when the magic words have been pronounced and the paper opened again, there are two more rows ol matches. They have seemingly appeared instantly, and the paper is full once again! By the way, have you sent in your trick yet? If .you haven't, write out the explanation to some small effect which you have seen performed, and which has not appeared in this column. Give a full explanation of how it is worked, and your name and address. Mail it to me in care of this paper, and if I select it to be published In the future, you will receive a book of magicand a. personally autographed picture of myself. But do it now! Don't wait until the books are all gone. I'll be'looking for your letter this week. The Kitchenette By AUNT PEGGY . I Would you like to give somebody a grand birthday present?

Breathing Is the most Important work of the human body. If we stop breathing for a very, very short time, we die. eYt so marvel- ously are our bodies made that we go right ahead breathing, hour after hour and day after day, without ever thinking about it. Good air. is more important to us than anything else in the world. If your supply of air has ever been cut off for a few seconds, you realize this very quickly. And If you have ever had to breathe impure air for a long time, you know how bad lt makes you feel. Since air, and good air, is so important, we should see that our bodies get lots of it. Be outdoors as much as you can, throughout the year. Sleep with your windows open. Breathe deeply, so that your lungs get an ample supply of this wonderful, life-sustaining substance. —The Editor.

So skittish are they that a distinguished Dutch zoologist, when recording the appearances of 187 of the elusive whoppers, seriously warned his readers: "As these animals are very shy, it is not advisable to approach them with a steamboat." That was in 1892—but even then sea monsters were old stuff. The first mention of them is in anci-.it legends. The Greek Pliny tells of a monster 120 feet long that gave Regulus and his army a stiff battle. Aristotle wrote of sea monsters— and Grecian urns have been found with sea serpents sculptured on thema In 1555 a Scandinavian archbishop wrote that "navigators of all sorts in Norwegian waters agree that a sea serpent 200 feet thick lives in the caves and rocks of the sea coast about Bergen. He leaves his aquatic lair in clear summer nights, and going ashore, devours calves, lambs, and' hogs. At other times he goes seaward, and feeds on lobsters, octopuses, and crabs. He has, commonly, hair hanging from his neck a cubit long, sharp scales, and Is black, and he has flaming, shining eyes." Magnus gives an illustration which shows a sea-serpent seizing a sailor from the deck of a ship. (This one evidently wasn't as bashful as some of the others!) ANOTHER MONSTER ' The next appearance of note is that of the ■ Pontoppidan Monster. Pontoppidan, famous old Bishop of Bergen, who was at first skeptical of the monster's existence, later became convinced. He cites the case of Captain de Ferry who shot a monster in August, 1746, but lost it when the creature dove. 'The head of the snake, which it held more than 2 feet above the surface of the water, resembled .hat of a horse. It was of a grayish color, and the mouth was quite black and very large.. It had .'ilaql: ;ycs, and a long white mane that hung down from the neck to the surface of tbfe water." One of the most famous of sea monsters was the serpent sighted by her Majesty's Ship Daedalus, in October, 1838, while cruising from the Cape of Good Hope to St. Helena. According totCaptain Mo Quhae, the creature "passed rapidly, but so close under our lee quarters that had lt been a man of my acquaintance, I should easily have recognized his features with the naked eye; and it did not, either in approaching the ship or after it had passed our wake, deviate in the slightest degree from its course, which it held on at the pace of from 12 to 15 miles per hour, apparently on some determined purpose. Its color was brown and yellowish-white about the thrift. It had no fins, but something like the mane of a horse, dr rather a bunch of sejt-we**'., washed about 'fs bnck." The ship Pauline, from Shields to, Zanzibar, in 1875 sew three large sperm whales, one ot which was gripped around the body by two turns of what appeared to be a huge Berpent. The monster whirled Its victim round and round for about fifteen minutes, then suddenly dragged the whale to the j bot tom, head first. THE LOCH NESS MON8TER Undoubtedly the most renowned monster of recent years was the Loch Ness Serpent. "Nessy," who crashed the froht pages in 1932, was possibly the only sea monster ever to obtain official recognition. On December 8, 1932, Sir Godfrey Collins, Secretary of State for Scotland, authorized Inverness police to warn residents and visitors that the creature, if sighted, "must not on any pretext be molested, shot or ■ t'rr posd." "n ■■-' * H *•• c 'f v's warn- h v.. ■ ' l (;.. <;d for, ic y's c . .uie, .'he .\ew York Zookigical Park was willing to give $25,000 if the Serpent was delivered (1) alive, (2) healthy, (3) at least 40 feet long.

In all, over 100 persons including! many of unimpeachable integrity, caught a glimpse of the Loch Ness will-o-the-wisp during the four or I five years following its original discovery. But we naven't heard much of it recently. Of the many .theories which hav* been brought forward to account tor the most famous What-Is-It of our century, these are probably thai ones heard most often: (1) It's a fake, perhaps made of rubber, and designed to draw visitors to the lake. (2) It's a bunch ot weeds. Many of the monsters sighted at sea hav* turned out to be in this class. (3) It's a snake, Land snakes (even cobras and anacondas) hav* been seen many miles from land. (4) It's a seal (Nature Magazine). (5) It's a squid (W. Beebe). Some cuttlefish have been captured which measured over 60 feet. (6) There really Is some unusual creature in the Loch—perhaps a modified descendant of some prehistoric animal. Take your pick. But before you scoff at the last theory, read the article on Sea Serpents in the Encyclopedia Brlttanica. This reliable source says: "It would appear that, while with very few exceptions ail the so* called sea serpents can be explained by reference to some well-known .■minis' or natural object, there ll still a residuum sufficient to prevent modern zoologists from deny* '"a" h> n\*"'M,)ta' V a-Ti"1 SUCh / 'i'i o .' ■.,' v u m s as ['!.« las c the Idsa that there may bl such a thing as a sea monster remember that giant cuttlefishes over 80 feet long have been living In the ocean for ages, yet only about 1860 did actual capture prove thelt existence. m^mmmmmw. m. * i NELSON DAILY NEWS, NELSON, B.C.-SATURDAY MORNINO, FEB. 18, 1939. -PAGE NINE PICARD HALFWAY LEADER IN NEW ORLEANS TOURNEY; DUDLEY DR0P5 By KENNETH GREGORY I NEW QRLEANS, Feb. .7 C>VP>- Out ot a general assault on par, tall Henry 0.

Warman, managing director of Streatham club, said In a statement the attitude of the B. I. H. A. "amazed" him. He recalled Streatham waa ready to pull from the league on Wednesday, but the association "showed determination and anxiety to persuade us to withdraw our resignation. "We agreed to do «o for the sake ot the future of hockey of which Streatham is the only remaining pioneer club in this country.The B. I. H. A. reversed the situation by expelling Streatham from the league because ot incidents In the match that night where the players were under abnormal tension. It isn't only the club that is being penalized, but also our crowds at loyal supporters." Streatham announced Its withdrawal from the league last Monday In protest against suspension of three players by the B. I. H. A.

(Continued In Next Column) Commillee Seeks Admittance of Refugees, Canada VICTORIA, Feb. 17 (CP)-The British Columbia government today met a delegation of the provincial branch of the Canadian national refugee committee but at conclusion of the meeting Premier Pattullq issued no statement regardhjg the province's attitude toward Inviting European refugees to the province. The premier said the discussions were of a preliminary nature. The1 delegation, headed by Dr. W. G. Black, with Re;y. Dr. Gerald Swiizer and Rabbi Samuel Case, placed two proposals before the cabinet: 1. That the government make representations to Ottawa to the effect that Canada should admit an appreciable number of refugees irom Europe, these refugees to be selected carefully on the basis of health, adaptability, general education, special training and suitability for Canadian conditions. 2. That the government cooperate actively with the Dominion by help-, ing to locate and establish those refugees who wish to settle in this province. The committee argued that as a member of the League of Nations Canada was morally obligated lo share in tha* league's refugee work and was well able to do so with her wealth and potential resources, Influenza Outbreak .

Profit Taking Holds New York NEW YORK, Feb. 17 (AP). - Profit taking dfflcultlei beset the ttock market today and the rallying iwing of Thursday turned into a side-wise shift for many leaders. Gains ran to a point- or so for ' steels, aircrafts and specialties at ' the start. Closing prices were nar- j rowly mixed. With the ticker tape frequently idling, transfers approximated 700,- 000 shares. The apparent chilling of buying . sentiment, brokers said, was due , partly to the desire of speculative forces to await further signs of a spring business recover, as well as to continuance of fears of a new . European crisis after the end of the Spanish civil war. Resistance was shown by Marshall Field, United Aircraft, llenn Martin, N.Y. City Omnibus and Cluett Peabody, all of which hit new 1938- 39 peaks. Some receded ot the last. Behind the greater part of the time were General Motors, Chrysler, Sears Roebuck, Anaconda, Standard Oil of N. J., Santa Fe and Standard Dome and Hiram Walker posted narrow gains among Canadian Issues but most others were about unchanged. , SASK.

' Miss Dunn also explained the benefits of. immunization against diptheria, and told of the publicity campaign carried on by prominent Toronto citizens recently, and asked the members for their support if the tentative plans of the medical officer to hold such a campaign here should materialise. Volunteers were called for and those offering their services were Mrs: C. P. McHardy, Mrs. W. E. Calbick, Mrs. H. H. Currie, Mrs. T. Dolphin, Mrs. H. H. Pitts, Mrs. J. C. Robson, Mm. W.

This trade agreement pulls the empire apart When the Republicans go into power in the United States it will probably be cancelled; Then we will have lost our' Empire preferences and our trade as well. EXPORT LEVEL HIGH Time already has begun to tell about the agreement Hon. W. D. Euler, minister of trade, said in reply. Trade figures for January showed Canadian exports to United States at the highest level since 1930 and $15,000,000 higher than in January 1938. Exclusive of gold they were $5,000,000 higher than last year. Imports from United States in January totalled $28,000,000 against $32,000,000 a year ago and an unfavorable balance ot trade had turned into a favorable balance. Mr. Euler said the government was giving attention to the cattle quota situation and he believed action would be taken which would be satisfactory to cattle •exporters. This was in reply to Dr. Manion's charge that the cattle quota had been Misrepresented and Canadian exporters were not aware Mexico shared the annual quota of 225,000 head of cattle more than 700 pounds in weight. (The quarterly quota of 60,000 head for the first quarter of 1939 was exhausted at the end of January with Mexico supplying 4! per cent of the total.) MILK QUOTA JOKE The quota on milk imports from Canada was "just a joke , said Dr. Manion. Liberals boasted of the fact Canada waa permitted to ship 3,000,- 000 gallons of milk into United States at a reduced rate of duty. This was less than the amount of milk consumed in a city such as Ottawa in a year. It worked out at onerfifth of a pint a year for every citizen of United States. Indication the government might remove the three per cent excise tax from all imports came from Mr. Euler after Dr. Manion suggested this would have to be done Hi order to avoid a "horrible muddle." In the treaty Canada agrees to remove the tax from commodities named in the treaty. This, Dr. Manion said, would mean taking the tax off luxuries and leaving it on necessities unless it was removed entirely. , "We may take the excise tax off all' commodities: I am not saying we will," sard Mr. Euler. "That tax was never meant for anything but revenue. If it did act as protection its removal will benefit consum- MUSSOLINI (Continued From Page Ona) fired shots In the, Via Momentana." The second communique laid: "On Feb. 14, shortly alter 2 p.m., In Via Momentana, a militiaman in plain clothing noticed an Individual evidently out of his mind and behaving wildly, and approached him to calm him. The man suddenly fired at him with a revolver, wounding him In the abdomen: "The attacker; immediately arrested, waa identified aa a mechanic, Bruno Shnont, 38, son ot Luigl Simoni, of San Giorgio de Piano (near Bologna), already released twice from an Insane hospital — the first time at Naples past year."
