TODAY'S MENU CHAMBERLAIN (Continued From Page One) "If the prime minister even gets an application from the republican government in Madrid or elsewhere for an emissary of peace will he grant facilities for that emissary to go?" Mr. Chamberlain replied: "We will do whatever we can to assist in avoiding bloodshed." LONDON, Feb. 13 (CP.-Cable) - Sir John Simon, chancellor of the exchequer, today told the house of commons the government takes a serious view ot charges that the so-called "option clause" of the Munich agreement Is not being observed. The option -clause concerned the right of non-Nazis to leave the Sudeten territory of Czecho-Slovakia after Germany took it over. The chancellor of the exchequer said British representatives have been asked to ascertain the govern' ment's position in the matter. Sir John's statement came near the end of the debate in the committee stage of the Czecho-Slovaklan financial assistance bill, after Wedg< wood Benn, Labor, moved an amendment to the subsection dealing with the government's powers to guarantee the principal and inter est of a loan of £10,000,000 (approximately $50,000,000) to be.raised by the Czech government. The amendment, which later was quashed without division, demand' ed the treasury must be satisfied "that full opportunity Is being afforded for exercise of the right of option at the outset in section seven of the Munich agreement."

On the basis of this hallucination, my administration would have shown a surplus of $2,000,000,000. ,M" "And I trust," Hoover added sarcastically, "that the time oft for precinct work (election campaigning) by the Works Progress administration is not included as an offset to the national debt." Under the new deal, he said, "extravagance with other people's money is shifted from a sin to a virtue. ••• "Mr. Roosevelt says 'this generation has a rendezvous with destiny'. The most probable spot for the rendezvous today Is inflation. "When this generation has gone up that alley, It will find freedom has gone and our rendezvous will be with a full-sized dictator."

MORE ABOUT .. t. HOWE (Continued Prom Pane One) That venture had little success, but Mr. Howe In the meantime ploked up other Interests. He came to Vancouver where he purchased three downtown business lots for (20,000. In March, 1028, he sold the same lots, at the corner of Georgia and Granville streets, for about $1,000,000. Meanwhile, Mr. Howe was instrumental in formation of Point Grey municipality, now a part of Vancouver city, and was elected its first reeve in 1908. His business held him out of poll- tics for the most part from then until 1920 when he was elected president of Vancouver Conservative association, a post he held four years. GIVE8 HOR8E8 TO GOVT. In private life he was an ardent sportsman, and owned and exhibited a number ot imported Hackney horses which won championships through the Pacific Northwest. When the Great War broke out he presented two of them to the Dominion government, and one of Uie two—Brocklebank—was ridden by General Sir Arthur Currie throughout his campaigns. He also turned over the government his 70-foot power yacht, Epaullne, which was used as a floating base for airplane spruce operations in the Queen Charlotte islands. Mr. Howe was appointed honorary lieut-colonel of the first battalion (16th C. E. F.) of the Canadian Scottish regiment. In 1935 he presented a series of four historic panels for the actogan- al rotunda In the legislative buildings at Victoria. George H. Southwell, British artist, was commissioned to do the work. Mr. Howe was predeceased by his wife in 1933 and by his only daughter. Edna Pauline, some years previously. UNWIN DEFENDS SOCRED POLICY EDMONTON, Feb. 13 (CP)-De- fence of the Social Credit government's policy was voiced today by J. W. Unwin (S.C. Edson) in continuing debate on the speech from the throne after criticisms had been levelled at the administration by E. L. Gray, Liberal leader. Debate was adjourijed by Dr. Walter Morrison (Lib. Edmonton). Mr. Gray declared the federal wheat price of 80 cents a bushel for No. 1 northern at Fort William had put (22,800,000 into Alberta; urged action to bring "order out of chaos" in the debt situation; declared the time long past when something progressive should be done about unemployment and claimed the throne speech Indicated new taxation. __,:.._______ ___ VETERAN OIE8 WINNIPEG, • Feb, 13 (CP). - Funeral services will be held here tomorrow for Major William F.

B. (Jack) Morris, past Gyro district governor, told the Rotary club at its meeting in the Hume hotel Monday, ' > „ "Someone hu said that the greatest of all goods Is friendship, and the one we think the least of when acquiring," Mr. Morris said. "There is a lot of truth In that statement and it should not be, for we should give a great deal of time and consideration to the choosing of our real friends. For there Is nothing in the wide world so greatly to be enjoyed as true friendship. With one who takes an interest In your welfare, who will not flatter you to your face, and who will defend your good name and your actions on all occasions." A definition bt "friend", given In an English newspaper was simple but true, the speaker stated. The definition was "one who comes in when all the world goes out." Few words In the English langu age were so misunderstood, so wrongly defined and so inappropriately used as the word "frlendsh■■>." Mere acquaintance did not constitute friendship, neither did benevolence, which consisted of good will to mankind In general, Mr. Morris believed. "A friend Is one who Is for you always. Whatever kind of coat you are wearing suits him, whether you have on a dress suit or a torn working shirt, it is fine with him. He likes your moods, he enjoys your pessimism just as much as your optimism. He likes your success and your failures endear you to him the more. He wants nothing from you except that you be your- self. When you are vigorous and spirited, you like to take your pleasure with him. When you are in trouble you want to tell him. Whenyou are sick you want to see him. When yoli are dying you want him near you," Mr. Morris said. Gyro was not really a service club, as lt was not organised for such, but Gyros as good citizens are always doing something in the way of community service. W. J. McLean thanked Mr. Morris for his talk, on behalf of the club. Dr. Nell E. Morrison was initiated as a new member. S. A. Speers of Creston and C. F. Domoney of Nelson were geusts.

MORE ABOUT PETER VERIGIN (Continued From Page One) Up to Monday evening, 300 bus reservations had been made at Shoreacres and Glade. FEW FROM PRAIRIE It was not expected the prairie Doukhobors would be represented in large numbers at this time. Most of them paid their final tribute to the leader before his body left Saskatoon for Brilliant, where it is to be laid beside that of his father, the elder Verigin, who since his death has been called "Peter Lordly" by his followers. Difficult times will reduce the number able to travel to Brilliant for the funeral. They will be largely represented later, however, when a new leader Is chosen. Funeral arrangements are not yet known, Officials of the Christian Community of Universal Brotherhood, Limited, the Doukhobor business organization, stated Monday these arrangements were in the hands of the members of the family, with whom also rests for the present at least the spiritual leadership of the sect. Elaborate ceremonies for the reception of the body at Brilliant have been arranged. When the body la removed from the train the casket Is to be placed on the ground and opened, so that mourners may look upon their erstwhile leader. Thence it will be carried to Peter's house in slow procession, and mourning ceremonies will continue there, leading up to the burial on a high point overlooking Brilliant. Until the funeral the business ot the Community will be tt a standstill, and only those things which are necessary will be done In the six-week mourning oeriod to follow. The mourning period will be terminated by a memorial service at the tomb, and will be followed by the election of a new leader. It Is anticipated the leader will be chosen informally during the memorial service at the tomb, and that he will be formally confirmed at a business meeting shortly afterward. When Peter Verigin succeeded his father, killed in a train explosion 15 years ago, 10,000 Doukhobors gathered at Brilliant for the memorial service and election of the first Peter's successor.

NELSON, B.C.-TUESDAY MORNING. FEB. 14, 1939 Common Idea of Hell Is False. Says C.C. Weis a Evangelist C. C. Weis declared that the conception of hell as forever belching forth destruction with the devil as superintending Its fires was not based on Scripture, the speaker denying the existence of either, in his Sunday night lecture ■t Silica hall. ..'■ Mr. Weis said that such a conception was designed to frighten people into'being Christian, "and God pity the man or woman whose Christianity is motivated by ,fear." Nor did a burning hell and a devil with a .pitchfork agree with his own conception ot a God, he added. Nevertheless, a destruction of the wicked was taught in the Bible, and was known as the second death, taking place after the 1000 years when the hosts of evil surrounded the New Jerusalem and the fire "comes down from heaven and devours them." ! Scriptures were read as the evan- felist explained that this fire would e unquenchable till it had done its work, and then it would go out of Its own accord. It would be eternal Jn its effect, but not eternal in the duration of time lt took to burn up the wicked. After having devoured the wicked as stubble till they were reduced to ashes, this fire would go out, and even Its place and the fact that it ever existed would be forgotten. The purpose of this fire was to destroy sin completely, not fo keep lt ever in existence, not even in hell, he contended. Mr. Weisxconcluded with the re- Bark that however real this file would be, it was never prepared for humanity, "for God loves the sinner." Rather it was "prepared for the devil and his angels," and only •Jhose who refused to forsake sin would perish with it. McKinnon Is Head of Selkirk Curlers for Ihe 1939 Season KIMBERLEY, B.C..

I'll do something aw- Ul! You'll see!" »"And so," said Mac, his eyes bor- : into mine, "and so we have at east one person in the house who ltd reason to wish Mrs. Wither- Ijpon dead and out of the way." T opened my mouth to protest, t nothing came out of it My Igue was like cotton; it clung to s roof of my mouth. "Say!" Phil had been wandering torn shelf to shelf examining the looks. "Here's a volume on toxl- ology!" He pointed to a thick Xeefi book wedged tightly between wo smaller ones. And as his hand rorked to remove it, the book lipped from his grasp and fell, ace up and open, to the floor. ■Good Lord!1' he exclaimed. "Good *rd." "Well?" Mclntyre spoke sharp- y, "Find something, Benson?" "Did I find something!" He ftshed to us and placed the vol- lme into the detective's lap "Take i look at that!" "Whafr-iwtiat Is it?" I atam- nered. 'So!" Mac sounded grim. I jump- id up and ran around behind him. the print of the page was small bd dim; the words danced before By-eyes. "What Is it?" I cried again, and lis finger moved slowly to the cen- rc of the page and paused. "Cyanider I whispered. "Cyan- del In bold, black type! And in he margin, lightly penciled, there vas a small check mark! All at mce my legs gave way at the snees. .''Easy, kid!" Phil caught me in lis arms." He carried me to the inn chair I had occupied. ''You see Elsie," Mac said softly, .someone in this house knows all ibout cyanide. I think maybe that omeone had been studying up on t- for a long, long time." "I see," I said, and suddenly I as incredibly weary. I did not ant to hear any more about poi- ns or murders. I wanted to rise id to go away from the Manor, housands of miles away. I closed ay eyes. "Brace up, baby!" Phil implored. Ve have work to do!" He slapped ne on the shoulder and moved ickward. There was a crash and chair tottered on its legs and fell ldcways. A firecracker exploded in * brain. "Phil! Mac!" I cried. "I have it!" .."Huh?" They stared at me. "Have rhat?" ."That chair crashing—remember ^old you—the chair in the salon— ;ht before Mrs. Witherspoon " I was so excited I could not alt to finish my sentences. 'The one that changed posi- ons?" Phil questioned. "Yes. Don't you get it?

My excitement oozed nd died. "Oh, I did think-" I i too diappointed to continue. "Don't feel badly," Mac said Ipdly. 'There's something in what " i say. I can't, at the moment, ne th reason for the murderer's isence in the salon that night— 1 I'm convinced that it was the Jjurderer—but I do know that he tasn't baiting his trap then. Ac- lording to your account ol Sun- . s clients, you used all four of i driers without fatal results un- aU,,„ aVHk»aaannaa aaaOMUSH au,»V." "Yes, that's true," I admitted, feeling very much like a deflated inner tube. "Therefore X knew to the second when the old lady was to have her beauty treatment" "Yes." "Let's reconstruct this thing!" He became brisk and businesslike. "For a reason unknown X visits the salon in the middle of the night previous to the ball. You interrupt; later X steals away. In the morning you open the beauty parlor; all dav long you work on first one then another of the women in the house. And all day long the driers are In perfect and harmless condition. No one is overcome by cyanide fumes. "At eight o'clock you shampoo Mrs. Witherspoon's hair and set the Wave and carry her to the first drier. You turn the switch; you discover that the drier is out of order. And you remove the old lady to the second drier. O.K. so far?" I nodded. "When during the day were you absent from the salon?" "Let me see—I went to my room for lunch. I was there about an hour. In the evening I dined below stairs. That took another hour." "Below stairs for dinner, eh? So that gives X sixty good minutes to jimmy the driers and attach the poison. Sure you weren't out at any other time?" "Well—" I lowered my lashes. That fatal half-hour I had spent in the pantry with Phil. I had omitted this Incident in my story of the murder and the events leading up to it. And lt was too late now to admit my guilt and besides had I not promised Mr. Horace to say nothing of my lapse? I plunged on: "No—no, I wasn't out of the room at any other time." "So!" Mac shifted in his clfalr and I shot a quick glance at Phil. He was frowning. I shook my head slightly. He must not give me away! His right eye closed briefly. I breathed a sigh of relief.

Beauty Depends Mostly on Lovely Eyes and Mouth By DONNA GRACE When you analyse the beauty and facial expression ot any ot the famous motion picture stars, you are impressed with what? The mouth and eyes, of course. The face itself, no matter whether it Is long or round, will be Attractive when there Is a lovely mouth and beautiful eyes. The comfort in this to us Is that the eyes and mouth lend themselves to changes In a most satisfactory way. So it would seem the Important thing is to know a lot about these special features and just what one must do to give the face the most flattering expression possible. If you will observe the mouths of the average girl — we mean those who have not thought much about make-up and what it can do for us — you will notice most mouths are too thin. There are no thin mouths In Hollywood. Any girl who appears before the camera will have full expressive lips, either nature's gift or that of the make-up man. The only thin lips are for character parts and never to express feminine beauty. We could name several of the prominent stars whose natural lips are not the full contour so desirable, but when you see them on the street or in pictures, the mouth outline will be perfect. When you begin to take your *V1 Olivia De Havllland has beautiful Nose mouth make-up seriously, you will first study the general outline. Note whether or not it Is the shape that gives a pleasing, lively expression to the face. Or, is It just a mediocre mouth? Sit before your mirror and with your outline brush or pencil (use the lipstick it you do not have the pencil or brush), make a square over the centre of the lips.

Melt four tablespoons butter and combine four tablespoons flour with it Gradually add one cup of milk ahd one cup lamb stock or hot water, and stir until the sauce Is thickened. Then add the diced lamb, one-half cup celery, diced, one small can of button mushrooms, one-half cup of peas, one pimiento sliced, one green pepper, diced, and season with salt and pepper. Serve In patty shells or Over toast Place a cube of currant jelly on top of each. Crushed Pineapple Sherbet Ingredients are one can crushed pineapple, one-half cup pineapple juice, one and one-half cups of orange Juice, one tablespoon of lemon juice, three egg whites, one half pint cream, one cup sugar, three-quarters cup water and one- half teaspoon salt Dissolve sugar and salt In water by heating slightly. Add this to fruit and Juices, put Into refrigerator trays and freeze te a mush. Remove to a bowl and beat well. Finally, beat egg whites stiffly, then whip the cream and add these to the fruit mixture. Freese, stirring several times. This Is enough to serve 12 to 15 persons. Kitchen hints contributed by kind reade" are presented by this department with the hope that many items will prove ot service. If you want hard-boiled eggs to looked their best when shelled, boil them from 10 to 12 minutes, then douse into very cold water. The sudden shock prevents the white from discoloring. It Is a good plan to cook soups and stews a day before they are required. Then, betore reheating remove the cake of fat congealed on top. When this method ts followed, soups and stews will not upset the weakest digestion. LIVER PASTE Liver may be potted and used as a spread. Boil eight ounoes of the best cslfs liver with inree slices of lean bacon and a small onion stuck with cloves. Put through a food choniwr than Dound welL Mix_ 1 together with pepper, salt and a tablespoon of melted butter. Put into small jars, pour on enough butter to cover, seal. It will keep Indefinitely. TASTY CHANGE As a change from the ordinary rissoles or croquettes, spread some minced, seasoned and moistened meat on squares of plain pastry. Roll these up and press the dampened ed"es together. Dip in eggs and bread crumbs, fry a golden brown, and there you have a nice dish. Mustard, if riot made with vine egar, is improved by a pinch each of very finely-powdered or confectioners' sugar and' salt Mix the mustard with, boiling water instead of with cold to keep it moist longer. To avoid breaking an omelet do not turn, but simply put the pan under the hot broiler for a few sec onds. Not only is the omelet beautifully browned, but it is much lighter and finer, to that it can be easily rolled. Those recipes that call for the white of an egg only are rather expensive. One woman .suggests that instead of breaking the shell as usual, make a hole with a large needle at one end to drain away the white. Then cover the hole with a tiny piece of gummed paper or close it by smearing a little Of the white over it The yolk will keep fresh until wanted. USE LEMON JUICE Jellies will set more quickly If a little lemon juice is squeezed into the liquid and stirred before set ting the liquid aside to cool. This treatment also improves the flavor. Sausages are guaranteed not to b-rst if they are placed in hot water before being tried. A teaspoon of lard added to the water Into which it is boiled will soften and sweeten cabbage. Beefsteak pies 'and puddings fenefally appeal to the menfolk, o greatly improve the flavor, add a little dry mustard as well as salt and pepper to the seasoned flour In which the meat Is dip- Then there's that other favorite, apple dumplings. Before covering apples with the pastry, dip the fruit in a basin of cold water, completely submerging lt The paste will then stick to the applet arid not slip away as sometimes happens. sot Inch above and below tha natural outlines of the mouth just as it you were going to have a perfect square instead of a tapered one. The square will not extend beyond a point about a half-inch from the corners. Fill in tha square with rouge or use your lipstick and you will see Immediately now important the mouth can be. We are not going to wear square mouths though so the next step is to draw a light line of lipstick from the outside corners ot the square to the corners of the mouth. It will slant definitely from the full centre angle. The curve in a soft line will give the outline a natural effect You will have to practice this for a while and it will soon be your accepted make-up. You may Ignore the cupld's bow. Hollywood has found it la not suitable for all types of beauty, and they do not accent it A soft curve will give the face more sophistication than the deep cupld's bow. Happy Families... Father's Aid Is Needed lo Train The Children By GARRY C. MYER8, Ph.D. Most who read this column are women — mothers. Recently I have been delighted at the number ot letters which begin with, "My husband and I have been reading your column regularly." More letters, too, are coming from fathers and more letters by mothers are referring to the eager efforts of the mother and father to work together to guide the children; and to the many ways in which the father is sharing the mother's load, caring for the young children. More letters, furthermore, are telling of father-son companionship. Truly, such letters encourage me very much. There still come, of course, tragic accounts of families in which the father leaves all responsibility for care and training of the children to the mother or of families in which the parents widely disagree about the children, even in these children's presence. While such letters depress me, I always am glad to write the discouraged mother any note of cheer or suggestion for winning the father's cooperation I can think of. WRITE YOUR IDEA8 I do not expect all my readers to agree with what I write. Indeed, I gain many new ideas from those who write me disagreeing. But I am eager that If one parent reads my column the other also will; that both also read and study together other articles and books for parents; that they, moreover, enter parent study groups together and together attend lectures for parents. When only the mother reads or hears such matters and attempts to apply some of the suggestions, she soon meets with conflicts it her enthusiasm for the Idea is not shared by the father, especially it he should ridicule it or treat it with contempt It sometimes happens, Indeed, that the father will resist a new idea about guiding the children just because the mother was over-enthusiastic about lt No matter how workable the idea, if the mother's enthusiasm about it sug- fiests to the father that his wife > trying to correct his short-comings ana educate him, he will unconsciously build up resistance to it No husband welcomes being told even by Implication, by his wife that he is Inferior to her or that he is being educated by her. Nevertheless, if she can adroitly make him want to read an article or book to her while she is busy mending or ironing, say how graciously he will strive to help to educate his wife. Incidentally, while he is so helping her he might absorb a little of what he reads himself. Blessed Is the child whose psr- ents together read and plan and study, seeking ways and means of being better parents, furthering a happier family. Rent that room with a Want Ad. Community,.... - Drinking Glass Spreads Disease By LOGAN CLENDENINQ, M. D. It Is within my own memory that lt began to be preached that a §ublic drinking glass could spread isease, and I remember the caustic diatribe on the subject preached by our family doctor. The idea, he said, that any flibberty-gibbet with a microscope could prove to him that such a thing as diphtheria was spread by a nice clean drinking glass standing on a nice clean marble Standi He had drunk out of such f[lasses thousands of times, and ook at him—perfectly healthy. Well, he went the way of the dodo and the plesiosaurus, and the doctrine of the spread of disease by infected glasses, plates, knives and forks and spoons has prevailed. There has been, indeed,- much scientific work done on the subject and much improvement in methods. With the development of the sanitary examination of foods, it is realized that all the elaborate procedure, the entire system, breaks down if these foods are placed and served tn dishee, glasses and utensils that have not been properly cleansed and sanitized. Health de- partments have connected the transmission of outbreaks of disease occurring in their jurisdiction to infected dishes and glasses. METHODS OP CLEANING Home methods of sterilizing dishes and glasses need not be as efficient as those required at soft drink and lunch counters or in restaurants. The heat of the cleansing water used, the use of lye, or chlorine, or among newer developments, the use of specially designed lamps, are all to be considered. The hotter the water used, the better the results. The longer the utensils are in contact with hot water, the better. For the housewife's information, she should know that sanitarians believe that the temperature of wash water should not be less than 120 degrees F. I doubt if many house holds or soft drink counters come up to .this standard. Thorough washing Is the most important step in drinking glass sanitation. Unless the glass is thoroughly clean and free of grease- film, lipstick, milk fat, the action of heat or any other disinfecting preparation is rendered ineffective. Yet it is a familiar sight at soda water fountains and cocktail bars to see the attendants sloshing a glass around a few times in a basin of lukeivarm dirty water, drying it with a towel of questionable cleanliness and using that glass to serve the next customer. "RIM COUNT" The "rim count" is the standard method of testing the sanitation of the drinking glass. This means the count of bacteria made from swabbing the rims of drinking glasses. Here is another hint for house- "Nordic Beauty" Above is pictured Karln Marion, the beautiful 7-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. K. Franklin. 119 Morgan street, Nelson. Karin was born in Norway, and is quite a seasoned little traveller now, having crossed the Atlantic ocean 3 times by the age of 8. wives and glass-washers generally —how to hold the glass after cleaning lt. Glasses should be set rim down on a clean surface in an inverted position. The glass should not be handled from the rim. The hand of the glass-washer or food handler should not touch the rim of the glass at any time. Glasses that are set down inverted are more easily handled without touching the QUESTIONS and ANSWER8 I. R.: "Is there any danger of a stroke if there is no high blood pressure?" Answer—A stroke means a para lysis due to hemorrhage in the brain or blocking of an artery in the brain. While a stroke often is associated with high- blood pressure, it is not always so and it Is just as serious with or without. Ice Carnival at Kaslo Is Success KASLO. B.

There are no parades In uniform, because no uniforms have as yet been issued to the members — though the already active Women's Army Transport have their own. There is no publicity because the women themselves have requested that this be withheld. Yet soon in various parts of the country from Land's End to John 0' Groats 100,- 000 women will be drilling in Territorial Army halls. Each woman will be giving up hours of leisure work and accept- in. $2.50 per year in exchange. The majority are employed clerks, cooks, housewive-motor-drivers. All have full knowledge of some branch of work" required by members .of the women's army. The authorities emphasize it is not sufficiently realized that the Auxiliary Territorial Service, as the Women's Army is called, is not a group of raw recruits but an assemblage of trained women ready to take on their jobs tomorrow. No training is given to the women in their actual professions and the immediate appointment of women executives was also only made possible by drawing from the voluntary women's organizations those who have kept actively interested in army affairs ever since the war. LEADERS ARE VETERAN8 The officers of the Auxiliary Territorial Army are competent women who have taken the War Office examinations, and thereby hangs a story of foresight and self- sacrifice that as yet has received little notice in the press. In 1932 a group of prominent women who had served In the "W. A. A. C.'s" during the.Great War held a meeting. They realized they were getting too old to serve in another emergency and that the hard work they had put in training was being rendered useless, also that women would again be called upon to fill non-combatant jobs in the army but they would lack women officers. They sent a delegation to the War Olfice with the request that they be permitted to take officers' examinations to bring their qualifications up-to-date so that they in turn could train younger women. This offer was accepted. For months women well known in society, in intellectual circles and in politics attended lectures day after day, then sat for the stiff exams given to prospective lieutenants, captains, majors and colonels of his Majesty's forces. Among them was Dame Helen Gwynne-Vaughan, the Commandant of the W. A. C.'s in France, now. in her sixties and a professor of Botany at London university; Lady Trenchard, wife ot the former head of London Metropolitan police; Mrs. Edward Harnett wife of an Air Force commander. Equipped with the necessary diplomas, the ex-service women then held their own classes and trained 400 younger women recruits from different parts of the country. When the War Office decided to organize the Women Territorials these women officers were ready to serve. Officials in Whitehall could also depend on the trained and uniformed Women's Transport Corps (F. A. N. Y.'s) that had voluntarily served the army continuously slnca the war and whose members pass army mechanics' exams and get officers' training. . j .-•■ DEPENDABLE UNIT8 The Women's Legion, organized by Lady Londonderry in war time to provide cooks, clerks and driven for the army, had kept an active nucleus and expanded magically at a word frpm headquarters. Now as the Auxiliary Territorial Army stands the officers come from the ex-service women's "Emergency' Service", the drivers for the army are enrolled from the Women'a Transport (F. A. N. Y.'s), the drivers for the Air Force are enrolled from the Women's Legion which also provides instructors in army cookery and bookkeeping. The members are recruits with sufficient qualifications to prove their usefulness in the army jobs now given over to women. Each country in England will have its own women's territorial company to stand side by side with its regiments of men. They will use the same drill halls, be drilled by the same sergeant majors. Tho women will have their own officers, though as in the territorials there is no higher command and each county group comes as an individual unit under the War Office commandant There will be no women generals, Like the men's territorial army the women's ,army will come directly under the War Office. Tho only big difference is actually that the women are enrolled—names on a list to be called on—while tho men are enlisted. Also the women can join -td serve locally or away from home in an emergency. WORKERS ON LAND The Women's Land Army is rapidly organizing along similar lines. Women who served on the agricultural front between 1914 and - 1918 came forward In 1988 with suggestions for the establishment of an association ot women land workers. Lady Denman, D. B. E., was asked by the minister of agriculture to become honorary director of a special women's branch to be set up In his department if the occasion arose. She selected a committee and the present arrangements are that women will be enrolled in two categories; those willing to serve anywhere with a mobile force and those who will be able to -work only In their own localities. It is not tho present intention to provide for the training of volunteers, but tho Women's Farm and Garden association are making arrangements to meet the needs of women who wish to take short courses on farms at their own'expense. The membership already includes a large number of trained women engaged In agriculture. So England's Womens Army grows! MRS.

'It is "screwball." This strange blossom blooms forth in all sorts'of fields, but seems to reach its fullest flowering in the political arena. The species is not indigenous to any one part of the republic, but seems to do best in the south. The late Huey Long, of Louisiana, was a prize specimen. But the neighboring state of Texas carries off honors ■at present with its new governor, W. Lee O'Daniel This 'remarkable character is a native son, but he overcame this thandicap by having a striking radio personality. He built flip a big business in flour, largely through his radio tech- | nique. Last year, when the gubernatorial nomination lists |were crowded with ambitious Democrats, he decided his f'talents could extend beyond the flour business. He set out I with a hillbilly band to canvass the huge state, financing [his campaign by contributions collected in a cracker-box I at each meeting. Originally the campaign appears to have [been a publicity stunt but to everybody's surprise, including his own, he won. His platform was unique, including promises of economy, reduced taxes, pensions of $30 a month for everyone [over 65 who did not have that much income, and similar in- Ltongruous items. Whenever any heckler became annoying [by pointing out how these promises contradicted*one another, O'Daniel would order the band to strike up. * At his inauguration, which was staged in the state luijiversity football arena to the accompaniment of massed [bands, the new governor called for a policy of simplicity [and dignity in administration. He has only been in office two weeks, but is already in [hot water over his unorthodox policies. However he is only (repeating an old Texas custom. For Governor "Jim" Ferguson, who got into serious rouble, and his wife MMa" who succeeded him in office, ad somewhat similar records. Then there was "Alfalfa Bill" Murray in the neighboring State of Okalhoma. North Carolina boasts Senator "Bob" Reynolds who has given he venerable Hon. C. H. Cahan a nightmare by suggesting that Britain Cede a section of Canada linking Alaska with |the U. S. border to pay war debts. Of course, when we contemplate the *"screwballs" of [American politics we might remember that in the eyes of lour neighbors the actions of Alberta's premier seern a bit ■strange, and those of some of his colleagues only slightly Bess so. Perhaps a good deal depends on what one is used no, in politics as in everything else. lii.i nmtlHsiiUminssiil ^ilisilMsllsilirii^^ March of tho Wooden Columnists Featuring this charge of the lightheaded brigade bent upo.. "saving" the Constitution despite the tact that no danger threa'ened it, was the march ot the Wooden soldiers of the newspaper columns. To the credit of the fraternity let it be recorded that three famous writers, Walter Lippmann, Arthur Krock, and Heywood Broun, did refuse to tilt their lances at straw men and did struggle valiantly, even if vainly, to deflect with facts the mad march of some of their misinformed and misinforming fellow columnists. Facts were as nothing before the mad march of the wooden columnists. Theirs was not to reason why, theirs was to' stop Rossevelt or die. They performed prodigies of Don Quixote valor. General Hugh S. Johnson, who can fight for or against the New Deal with equal fervor ahd apparently equal confusion, let loose floods of uncontrollable tears. While Mark Sullivan, David Lawrence, Paul Mallon, 'Croak' Carter and others could not put on as diverting a show as the Spaniard of old, they equalled and in some instances excelled him in other respects—Mark Sullivan in pontlficlal gloomings and the others In gross misstatements as to the objects and effects of the bill in question; Dorothy Thompson, beholding her 'manly' colleagues, working the tear ducts so successfully, pursued resolutely the starry-eyed Jeanne d'Arc role that she so capably affects. Like 'Croak' Carter, she might not know any too accurately, on. account of lack of intimate acquaintance with them, just what our institutions were all about, but she was prepared to 'save' them somehow. But Frank Gannett, colieking within his wooden horse, and the other Jeremiahs of the dally press, braying on their wind instruments, would not have won their objective if Father Coughlin had not gallantly dashed to the front to assume command. Organizing a Klu Klux Kuan of the air he proceeded to mob members of Congress with the greatest number of letters, telegrams and telephone calls that history records. As in practically all instances of mob violence, those who composed the mob were puppets In the hands of cleverer and less scrupulous men. Of those who cooked this witch's mess of Klu Kluxlsm, it may be said that Frank Gannett, the rap-Roosevelt columnists and Father Coughlin ate jointly arid severally quite worthy of each other. —Sec. Ickes in Colliers. Vocational Guidance Factors In conclusion it may be said thot a successful program of vocational ' guidance involves at least four main factors: 1. Human Analysis of the abilities, aptitudes, tastes, etc., of the individuals to be guided. 2. Occupation Analysis—an inventory of the ingredients of industry, trade, agriculture, the professions, with a view of ascertaining occupational needs, opportunities and goals. 3. Placement Bureaus under ex pert guidance, to bring together the individual and the job for which he is best fitted. 4. A FollowUp Servlce-Hittach- ed to the placement Bureaus, to supervise their human output, keep in close touch with industry, agriculture, trade and the professions with a view to correcting faulty placements and to serve, in general, as a coordinating agency in the vocational guidance programme. Federal initiative, at least of an advisory character, with provincial cooperation, appears necessary for success. Direct administration should probably be under provin. cial jurisdiction. Indeed, such an organization may well prove to be an Integral factor In the successful working out of the national unemployment insurance plan which, it is hoped, will soon be in, operation. —Adult Learning. Benighted and Proud of It There is no foundation what-. soever for current press reports that elimination of posters on British Columbia highways is being asked by the Vancouver Automobile club, Marketing is informed. In denying such action by his club, the secretary stated there was not even any anticipation of the move. —Marketing, Toronto.

Duty to Maintain Defence, Says Hull WASHINGTON, Feb. 13 (AP) <* An assertion by United States Secretary Hull America would meet any foreign challenge with "determined defence and resistance" served today as a prelude to the first congressional debate over the $52,- 000,000 armament program. Hull told a radio audience last night as long as there was any possibility of attack it was "the sacred duty of any government worthy of the name to maintain adequate defensive forces." The definition of "adequate forces" will become an issue when the house takes up tomorrow a bill to authorize $300,000,000 for new army planes, $23,000,000 for Panama canal defence, and. $32,500,000 for civilian pilot training. Secretary Hull's speech said that as important as national defence is every country's obligation to prevent war "by perfecting the machinery of peace and by eliminating the causes of conflict."

The United States lighthouse service placed in the main ship channel off Deer island an ordinary buoy, containing a miniature radio transmitter, designed to guide the transit of shippmg regardless of weather. . . Captain George Eaton,' district superintendent of the lighthouse service, said the new signalling unit, powered by batteries was placed in a watertight container and sealed into the buoy. A small aerial extends from the buoy, radiating code slinals on frequencies assigned to the lighthouse service. ' Incoming ships, creeping through fog would be able to pick up the Signal and trace the position of the guide buoy on a chart, he explained, adding: , "But before predictions can be made, we'll have to work out the hugs in the apparatus. Its value will lie in its being able to operate continuously." Bounty on Wolves Up Five Dollars VICTORIA, Feb. 13 (CP). - The British Columbia government today announced an increase in the bounty on timber wolves from $10 to ■15 The higher bounty is intended to induce hunters to go after the forest ravagers who have become a steadily increasing menace. Wolves, the game commission is informed, are particularly plentiful in the northern and, far eastern sections of the province. During the last session several of tho up-country members complained about their depredations among game. One member asserted there were 100,000 in his riding alone. Records of the game department show bounties were paid on 828 wolves in 1937, the largest total on record. The Skeena division reported a great toll of young moose, caribou and deer, especially the latter, was taken, although the hope was expressed that an increase in rabbits would provide them with easier food in the future. At Telegraph Creek alone 226 bounties were paid. At Pouce Coupe in the Peace River 142 were killed, at Prince George 96 and Prince Rupert 84 and Atlin 67.

J. Shepherd after a hear- I In supreme court ol Alberta pruary2. The act in question Is ultra vires t only for the reason that It is crest legislation, but for the fur- (r reason that the suppliant's ht is a civil, right outside the wince and the legislature caa- t legislate validly in derogation of it right," declared his lordship. Che action was taken by the Indc- Bdent Order of Foresters, with ad offices in Toronto, which held berta bonds.

The debentures bore Interest at different rates and his lordship's Judgment declared that since June 1,1936 the government had tendered only half Interest rates on the debentures. for the attorney-general's department had contended that previous judgments on interest rates could not apply in the present instance and that the Federal Interest Act did not apply to the crown. "Under section 01 of the British North America act, the exclusive legislative authority of the parliament of Canada extends to all matters coming within the classes of subjects hereinafter enumerated and the classes of subjects so enumerated Includes Interest, sub-section 19," said the Judgment. It had been repeatedly hold by the courts that In respect of Interest, the field was occupied by the parliament of Canada and the provincial legislature had no right in that field, said Mr. Justice Shepherd. The crown In the right of the province was bound by the terms of the British North America act, which, said his lordship, "explicitly assigns to parliament the exclusive authority in respect of Interest." xporls Causes Wheat lo Steady WINNIPEG, Feb. 13 (CP)-A firm Iverpool market and an export lslncss in Canadian wheat of tound 400,000 bushels gave wheat itures prices a steady trend at Win- ipeg today.

Silver Ridge Is Driving Tunnel alio Feel a Day Granville Vein First Objective; Expect Ship in Summer Advancing at the rate of 10 feet a day, a low level tunnel at the Silver Ridge Mining Co. Ltd. property, Sandon, Is in 500 feet from the portal, it was reported In Nelson Monday by R. A. Grimes, president and managing director, and E. K. Kanaly of Vancouver, a director. The property, largely Nelson-1 owned, Is said to be the only base metal mine under development in British Columbia at this time. It Is in the heart of the Slocan country which produced rich silver-lead ore in the early days. The silver Ridge made mining History In this district with the introduction of bulldozer prospecting. A tractor and bulldozer were used to remove heavy overburden and three main veins, the Bell, Granville and Jan, were discovered. Other veins have since been revealed on the surface and an entirely unexpected vein waa opened up In driving the development tunnel, 230 feet from the portal. A second vein indicated on the surface is expected 600 feet from the portal. 100 feet beyond the present point of development. EXPECTED SHIP SOON Production from the Silver Ridge ii expected early this year, the •liver and lead content of the ore being sufficiently high for profitable shipment even at current low prices, Mr. Grimes and Mr. Kanaly stated. First objective Is the Granville property, will begin shipping from vein, and when this is reached the the veins encountered up to that point Continuation of the tunnel to get beneath the Bell and Jan veins will follow. Assays averaging 60 per cent lead —1200 pounds of lead to the ton of ore — and 100 ounces of silver, are reported by Mr. Grimes. The property shipped 21 tons, largely from the Bell vein, last summer, on which net smelter returns were $30 a ton. This was with lead worth around two cents. A comparatively short tramway, 3000 feet from the mouth of the tunnel to the railway, will facilitate shipping.

Phone 117 Nelion, B. C. Pope Phis' Memory Honored Cathedral of Mary Immaculate Solemn Requiem Mass Celebrated; Dr. McKeflna in Sermon Gives Late Pontiff High Place in History . Adherents of the Catholic faith paid reverent homage in simple but fitting ceremony in the Cathedral of Mary Immaculate Monday morning to their late beloved world head Pius XI, who died in Vatican City Friday morning. The cathedral was packed to the doors to hear Rev. Radey J. McKenna, p.D., celebrate solemn requiem mass for His Holiness, the theme which was chosen being' "Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church." Dr, McKenna was assisted by Rev. James J. Morelli, secretary to Bishop Johnson, who acted as deacon, and Rev. Charles Hugh Steben as sub-deacon. Dr. McKenna was celebrant in the absence of the bishop. Dr. McKenna began by stating that the divine commission given to Peter to "feed my lambs, feed my sheep" was nobly fulfilled by one of tne greatest shepherds of all time, Pius XI, in describing the great work of the late pontiff. In the latter part of his address, Dr. McKenna dealt with the fact that the office of pope Involved the duty and power of teaching, ruling, and sanctifying the faithful throughout the world. The great pontiff vas as conscious of his duty as he was of the power resident in his person.; PIU8 TAUGHT The Nelson priest spoke first on the teachings ot the pope. Pius made Leo XIII's famous encylicals live again by a constant and fearless reiteration of the Catholic 'social principles codified almost naif a century ago by the celebrated Pope of the Workingman. Fearlessly and unswervingly he met the onslaughts of tyranny, bigotry, hatred, and betrayal of faith, with the rigid principles, of Catholic doctrine and practice. Over and again he made the entire world conscious of the church's mission in the world. More than any other he brought Christianity into that unity and cohesian which has so far checked the viciousness of Com- Tnunism and kindred unnatural excesses. His encyclicals on education and Christian marriage clearly and without compromise reaffirmed the age-old position of the church, crys- talized Catholic thought, and exposed man-made innovations in these matters for what they were. His constant concern for increasingly high standards in ecclesiastical and secular science led him, like his most famous predecessors, to reform educational circles by stringent enactments where lofty standards already obtained. His fostering of learned institutions, his many foundations, his personal over-seeing of such affairs through the Congregation of Studies, the Pontifical Academy of Science, and the vast learning that was his own, gave an impetus to profund study and brilliant teaching efforts throughout the world. His work for organized Catholic action, another of his brain-children now nearing maturity, had resulted in an educated, loyal laity everywhere. "P1U8 REALLY RULED" "Pius really ruled", Dr. McKenna emphasized. To those who were fortunate to have lived In the shadow of the Vatican for even such a short time as two years, the knowledge of the venerable pontiff's singleness of vision and rigidity of purpose was not better known than the absolute unselfishness of his life. Pius had no personal friends in the sense of partial distinction. Nor did he want them. No pope ever understood his position and his power better. No pope ever carried his shepherd's staff in firmer grasp. Every ready to grant favors as long as they involved no concession of principles or justice, he asked none for himself. A Milanese, he added to that nat urally solid character the discipline of thought and action contained in the ecclesiastical training he received in his beloved Lombardy and In his arduous duties previous to his election as pope. A stern disciplinarian, he was never guilty of excess and always left the door ajar for reconciliation. PIUS SANCTIFIED It was his duty to sanctify. Pius began with himself, the speaker said. It was to the eternal credit of the papacy that of the 261 popes that history had known, a mere half dozen were accounted unworthy of praise for their private conduct. Not one failed in his duty to sanctify others, "to feed my lambs". Both in his personal and in his official life, Pius XI truly earned his reputation for holiness. "I'saw him often during my two years in the Eternal City", Dr. McKenna stated. "The first time was when he came back from the doors of death in 1936. Even then he still appeared full-faced, strong- jawed, stocky, and vigorous. He was unwell. But with priest-students from all over the world before him, he seized the opportunity to 'stir up the grace' that was in us, to demand personal holiness and zeal from everyone present, and to point the way to that sanctity. On that occasion he spoke for an hour. To us it seemed like 10 minutes. "I saw him for the last time last June. There were further oocasions when I might have gone to Castel Gondolfo for an audience before returning to Canada, But thai last visit was enough. It was martyrdom tor the shrunken old pontiff. He had fainted before they brought him into the audience chamber on the sedia gestatoria. They had tried to persuade him to cancel the visit, but His Highness was adamant. I shall never forget his hollow cheeks his quavering voice, his evident suffering, his feeble gestures, his powerful words. The strong body had failed him, but the luminous mind and iron will were his stilL The end was then In sight. , "This morning we are chanting .a solemn mass for the repose of the soul of our great leader. Over in Rome they cannot do more for him than what we in Nelson do at this moment. The pomp and ceremonial with which Peter's City moruns Plus' passing will be far more impressive. It can be no' more effective than Christ's own sacrifice continued at our altar. "Nor do we do this thing today out of simple sense of duty. We have lost a friend who knew us. In 1936 Nelson and the parishes which form the diocese came under the pope's notice. He sent his apostolic delegate to visit this part of our country. He read the reports, formed the diocese, gave us Most Rev. Martin Michael Johnson as our bishop. We were In his mind and in his heart We do not forget. "A great shepherd, I daresay one of the greatest who ever ruled the Christ's church, has laid aside his staff, Beyond the portals of time he prays for us that the new Jeter whom we shall have very soon, may have the consolation- one of the few Plus himself enjoyed—of a loyal, loving faithful foi' lowing here and everywhere throughout the world. "'Where Peter is, there is the church' is as true today as when the early church heard the adage. Somewhere among the valiant men who form the Sacred College of Cardinals, Peter prays for strength. An election will soon send him forth to the loggia of St. Peter's to bless the city and the world. We bid Pius XI a sorrowful farewell this morning. Even before we know him we offer the new pontiff, Peter's successor, our love and our spiritual loyalty. DR.

Nelson Juniors Enter Playoffs Against Trail Puckmen Tonight Hospital President Anticipates Annual Drive for Membei J. R. McLennan and W. M. Walk were named Monday night by H.! Whimster, president of Kootttf Lake General Hospital society, head a membership commlttj*;: anticipation ot the forthamiiqf 1| nual meeting of the,society. Nelson's Junior pucksters rounded out their preparation for their engagement here tonight with Trail juniors In a light workout with the senior Maple Leafs. The young Leafs are raring to meet the smelter city contenders. While the newly composed line of Gallicano, Nlven and Morris promise to give a good account of themselves, the line of Bergstrom, Emery and Mayo were In fine trim and really going places. A little strange to one another at the outset, the Galllcano-Morris- Niven line were going better toward the end of the warm-up. WILL BE RED BATTLE The accomplishments of Trail juniors in recent years are known to most hockey fans. They have a fine record and the Nelson club will have its hands full. Sport followers give the lake city lads the edge—but Trail will surely put up a real battle before they surrender the West Kootenay title. Crippled by sickness in their two exhibition matches with the Trallltes, the young Leafs took the.first match in Nelson 5-4 in overtime but lost the second in Trail, 7-2. In both instances the home clubs took a commanding lead at the outset only'to have their guests hammer them viciously In the last period. The lakesiders will have George Bishop of the goal-tending Bishop family between the pipes tonight A three-man defence composed of Russell, Campbell and Delpuppo will be the big men out in front of George. They are working well together, ' Hazen Powers will be utility man for Maple Leafs. Albert Euerby and Mike Welykochy will likely be the officials in charge. Tonight's engagement is the first of a. best-of-three playoff series for the West Kootenay title. Nelsop travels to Trail Thursday, and «hould a third game be necessary, it will be played in Nelson next Tuesday.

Paul weighed 194 to 198% for his opponent Paul, who used to fight out of Vancouver, B. C, signed today to fight McCorkindale after the latter's original opponent, Bill Moin- wright champion of the English Midlands, became ill with influenza. Paul, whose brother Packy fought last night on the same card with him and drew with Bernard Cook, was never in danger, tonight although he seemed tired toward the end. McCorkindale obviously suffered from lack of training. Millionaire Was to Be Extortion Victim, St. Paul ST. PAUL, Feb. 13 (AP).-Charles A.
