Of course they are vastly mistaken. Just as a person rEers most acutely from loneliness the big cir/ where millions are milling around ao the wife who has an uncongenial, uncommunicative husband on her hands knows sharp er pangs of loneliness than the single woman ever knows. Not pretending toet a cozy home Sth a congenial husband and a nily of children to boot isn't tha best life has to offer a woman; but many a wife who has-signed up for this gets cheated in the bargain and in addition to loneliness she has the bitterness of disappointment 8f» the unmarried woman should look on her loneliness as part and parcel of her alngle blessedness and inde- Smdence: and If she h** any spunk ere's plenty she cah do about it using her head,, her heart and her hands. Truth J* that everyona ot us It subject to attacks of acute loneliness .yet it needn't become a chronic state unless, want down and sob about it and make no move to fill up the emptiness. The average unmarried woman hii to work to support herself, which is a God's blessing; and any type of work aha'* engagei. ln fl-ceaaarily, toowa her ln contact with people. HoWeVet shy she may be there are oppor- tunities to follow up the acquaintanceships that come in the course of business. Small courtesies that show her friendliness will return to her like bread cast upon the water. ' Some learned vetmtolas said that, solitude is the specific cure ior loneliness. Certainly toa Unmarried woman can take her fill of solitude and she's wi*e If ahe uses it to reaij as wall a* brood. And what every woman knows li that a woman must have somebody or something to love and worry pbouf.

Marriage Law Has Effect on Town ELKTON, Md., Dec. 8 (AP).-At one minute past midnight tonight, legal brakes will be applied to Elk- ton's famous marriage mill which for the past 25 years has freely ground out' ties for couples who wanted to marry in a hurry. The state's new marriage-delay law, providing a «-hour lapse before applicants for a licence can wed, goes into effect at 12:01 am. After today, most of the "marrying parsons'" will close their parlors, the "marriage without 'waiting" signs will come down and the clerk of the court's office no longer will swarm with alter-bound couples as it did In the "no-questions- asked" era. " , Pessimistic over the outlook, the half-dozen "marrying parsons" who have made a comfortable living here in recent yean are planning for the future, and three of them are leaving town..

' This is tome ot the latest newt from your Hollywood lovelies, gleaned by bur scouts from thereabouts. . . ' .i - First we'hear from the vivacious Joan Blondell of a food way to utilize the time spent under tbe hair dryer. It la never a waste ol time with Miss Joan at the uses it for a bit of skin reconditioning by applying a generous application of mineral oil. all over the face and neck. The hot air helot to whip it into the skin, and when the hair Is dry she has the oold air turned on for the cooling effects. She finishes with a refreshing patting of astringent-soaked cotton. This should make the hair drying less mdnoto- nous and at the same' Ume keep the skin protected with the oil. Gaje Page thinks. all cosmetics should be warmed a bit before using. The cold weather Usually will affect the powder base, also the creams and rouges, and When they are placed on tbe radiator for a few momenta they will blend and make a smoother finish. ' Yoirmay Uke to use the nice foundation! and powder for your shoulders when the formal evening gowns are worn, but Miss Mar- Sret Lindsay, famed for her beau- ul shoulders, thinks shoulder makeup is out of date and -wu alwayi rubbing off on the coat of the oefenceleis etcdrt. Miss Lindsay, says a dally'scrubbing and regular application of lotions or cream will keep the akin soft and appealing. , We are minted of the unglam- orous effects of a, head cold. The constant use of the handkerchief will always result in a red nose. The hand lotion, they advise, Is preferred to the regular .makeup foundation when suffering from a cold and should be apnlied to soothe the, irritation as well as improve the appearance of the nose. when the nose Is conspicuous, It can be greatly subdued with a dark powder, much darker than used on the rest of the fact.

BRITAIN MAY ABOLISH PRISONS, SUSPEND CAPITAL PUNISHMENT Many changes in the British attitude toward criminals id delinquents are apparently forshadowed by the action of the house of commons in passing a bill that -embodies [jmany revolutionary ideas. Abolition of capital punishment in England for a trial jieriod of five years is sought by the house which haa passed approval on the question by 114 to 89. Prime Minister Chamberlain will be asked to include s recommendation in the many sweeping reforms to be le in punishment and prison rules, as passed by the house ?ln the government's criminal justice bill. It provides for special treatment for juvenile delinquents. The drastis changes would do away with the ticket- of-leave system and corporal punishment for all but serious prison offences, such as assaults on wardens. Hard labor and penal servitude will g_ if the bill be- iomeB effective. The terms convict and convict prison will tot be used any more. Prisons will be classified according to the type of persons sent to them. Special centres for dealing with mental defective cases are to be established. A special board of administrators will take over1 from the Jiome office the Broadmoor criminal lunatic asylum and it will be called the state mental hospital, and special medical science will be introduced. Methods of treatment for juveniles are to be worked fart whereby courts of summary jurisdiction will no longer Jje.able to sentence the young delinquent to prison. Juvenile (compulsory attendance centres are planned which delinquents between 12 and 17 years would be required to attend at nights or on half-holidays, as punishment for minor misdemeanors. Offenders between 17 and 23, when remanded or committed for trial, are to be sent to special centres instead of to prisons. Youth of 16 to 21 years, whom the courts believe need disciplinary methods, will go to "Howard House," so that they may be kept from bad influences. For offenders between 23 and 30 special training will be given along the present Borstal system. The legislation hits at motorists who have lost their licences to drive cars. Persons who have been disqualified may be arrested without a warrant if caught driving any '.otorcar. in.

A. F. Hagborg. At some of these points blackening of the heads had caused alarm because of ob- ■ vious damage to tne crop. It would be interesting to know If the wheat of the Creston, Grand Forks, and Inonoaklin \ valleys shows any trace of such coloration. The examination of samples received at Winnipeg, combined with laboratory, greenhouse, and field-plot tests, Showed that the discolorations were of several types. Some of them were.of slight practical importance but others caused considerable damage in certain localities. Samples Of normally dark glumed varieties and of false black chaff "were found, but these two types of blackening had little or no effect on yield. Of greater importance were discoloration diseases caused by the attack of bacteri and fungi. The were found to include (1) bacterial black chaff, caused by a bacterium, (2) glume blotch, caused by a fungus, (3) head blight, eaused by members of three groups of fungi, (4) blackening (or browning in certain varieties due to imperfectly developed rust pastules,' and (5) infection by non-parasitic organisims that gained entrance to the tissues after a physical breakdown had occurred. In all of these types the dicolorations are attributable to the formation of a coloring substance known as melailin, meaning "black." Because the production of melanin is the result of chemical changes in the plant tissues, the composition of the tissues is important in determining whether or not blackening will occur. Hence difference in the tendency to turn dark would be expected between varieties of different constitution. Actual varietal tests, extending through the past five years, have shown that such differences exist. The varietal reaction ranges year after year, from no discoloration in some varieties, to heavy discoloration in others. The problem of avoiding damage from the diseases that cause blackening of the heads of wheat is essentially one of breeding for resistance. A considerable damage from some of these diseases has been experienced in localized areas, the possibility of widespread damage, following the introduction of a new variety must not be overlooked. Such damage is best prevented by providing resistance in the new varieties. For this purpose a program of selection has been in effect at the Winnipeg laboratory for several years, in which time hundreds of trains of new wheat have "been eliminated on account of susceptibility to diseases of the biack chaff type. The habit of holing on the best side of every event is worth more titan a thousand pounds a year^-Johnson. I-t-L--.*.--,-^^^. ■ , .•..V?.-...-_--i»^^|^ijf|i|||< NlLSON DAILY NEWl,NBL»ON.

Wo Just Ache to Meet Peariall Smith You must not allow yourself to be intimidated by William Rothen- stein's portrait of Pearsall Smith. It shows him tall, elegant finespun, and austere; and so he is. But he is also as sociable and open- hearted as a man can be if approached on his own terms. Those terms are: a love of John Donne, ability to quote from Jeremy Taylor, a fairly complete reading of Proust Saptayana, and Henry James, and some acquaintance with the less reputable Jokes of Shakespeare. (There is one joke in Romeo and Juliet that he admits he doesn't understand yet If you explain it to him, he will ask you to stay to tea).

Probably Explains Surrealism It Is not right says this director, to try to force a child to paint against his own instincts. If he sees ugly things, let him out with them. It is better than keeping all the ugly things in his system until he grows up to be.a neurotic. If he does not breathe the bad air out, he cannot breathe in the fresh air.

Take a akin, either green or well soaked, and flesh it with a dull knife; spread tha skin on a smooth log, and grain it by scraping with a sharp instrument; rub nearly dry over the oval end of a board held upright. Take the brains of a deer or a calf, dry by the fire gently, put them into a cloth, and boll until soft; cool off the liquid till blood warm, with water sufficient to soak the skin in, and soak until quite soft arid pliable, and then wring out as dry as possible; wash in strong soapsuds, and rub dry, and smoke well with wood smoke.

Could it function again, if there were another world War? Consider what is happening in Czechoslovakia, whose distress is not even a curtain raiser to the horror of a large-scale .war. In the Zatec region, hundreds of Jewish people, including women and children are starving in ditches .in the fields, desperate from cold and hunger. Ample food and clothing is rushed to the area by the British but it cannot reach them.'And now, twenty years after we won the war to end war and to make the world safe for democracy, ponder this line of cold type under a Praha dateline: "•German and Czech .guards bar food and water from them." NO WAR There has been Ao war there; nor blasted countryside, no cruel devastation. The men, y-bmen, and children dying in the ditches are the victims of merely peacetime hatred and stupidity. If this Is peaCe. the peace of Munich, what cruel exactions of war could surpass it in its long hail down the old back road to utter barbarism? . ' • One can get this into no sequence of reason or sahity. no matter how much he thinks about it Here In Canada we know kindly and intelligent Czechs and German* who would be as humane as any of us in assuaging misery or lifting the fallen. There are long centuries of Christian cultur? behind the authorities who gave orders to withhold food and water from these desperate people. Can we believe that civilization does move forward through the centuries.- that there is a life pattern of order and progress? Our mind is a new instrument which we .got only yesterday and Its governance of our emotions which we brought with us from the primaeval deeps of life gives, as yet only feeble guidance. Criminologists now assess much crime against emo- tiohal rather than mental disturbance. In periods of great emotional stress, such as Europe, has suffered in the last 25 years, history records innumerable deeds of cold, stupid, sadistic brutality committed by rational, and in their personal relations,* kindly men who were good husbands' and fathers and neighbors.

You have no idea what a difference It makes In you!" "I daresay." "It does, Thorny. Do you have to wear them?" "Well, when I read, yes." "But not all the time?" . "No. But I read a great deal, and it is convenient to "wear them. I have Just developed a habit of doing so, I am scarcely conscious of them." "You wait a minute." She hastened Into her mother- in-law's bedroom, and came back bearing spectacles with small white gold frames and a different nose piece. "Try these on," she ordered. "They are mother's spares. I want to see this style on you." He adjusted them, soberly, "Now smile, Thorny. Look at me and say, 'How are you, Toots' and grin like a sophomore. It was a different order, but he managed it.

Italian residents were reported to have warned that they would draw up a self- defence corps if anti-Italian disorders continued. ■Many demonstrators — Italians, French and natives — were arrested but demonstrations continued tonight with roving bands colliding Intermittently with police. The strains of rival songs, the French 'Marseillaise" and the Fascist "Giovlnezza" sounded through Tunis streets. The current disorders ln Tunis were attributed in French quarters to a so-called "campaign of provocation" ln the local Italian press. Italians ln Tunisia still enjoy special privileges handed down from 1881 when France occupied the territory and found a large Italian colony. Under the Tunis convention of Jan. 7, 1935, achieved by Premier Mussolini and Pierre Laval, then French premier, Italian citizenship is protected until 1985.

C, Dec. 8 - "It Is the dream of the Canadian Press and British ■ news service* to establish, some day a British Empire newi service," said W. A. Curran. publisher and managing editor of the Trail Daily Times, when he addressed some 30 members of the Men's club of St. Andrew's United church here Thursday night. Hii speech was entitled "The Canadian Press." "The Canadian Press, which is recognized in England as a model for an Empire news agency, is already taking great strides toward this end," he said. "Further action will be seen next year when the Imperial Press conference will meet in Canada." Mr. Curran traced the progress of the organization from the time it was originated by the Western Newspaper association at Winnipeg, with J. F. B. Llvesay as the leading man, up to the present day, as a news service free of all strings and governing bodies, indifferent to political parties, and one that abhorred propaganda. NEWS GATHERING AGENCY "The Canadian Press is a news gathering agency controlled by member-papers of Canada and supported by mutual agreement. It is ihe greatest public utility ln the country, and Is doing more in bringing about a national spirit than any other medium," he declared. There was a time when the Canadian newspapers had to get then- general telegraph news from the railway companies. In those days without the teletype, the only means of relaying news was by telegraph. The Canadian Pacific railway and the Grand Trunk railway had a list of newspaper subscribers which they supplied with current news, he said. Two years after the Western Associated Press was founded in 1907. the Canadian Press was organized ln the east. These companies were able to get news from the C. P. R. but at a rate much higher than a subscriber paid. In 1910 the eastern and western press associations put their heads together in an attempt to break down the barrier. In 1911 the Canadian Press, Limited, was established and served as a homing place for dally newspapers throughout the country. NATIONAL ORGANIZATION The speaker related how in 1918 and 1917 under the pressure of war, the Robert Borden government had granted 850,000 to make it a national organization with wires stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific. He told how the Canadian Press exchanged news stories with the Associated Press tn the United States and the Havas News service In France, and sent news to the British East Indies and Newfoundland. In Canada there were 91 dally newspapers, of which 89 were members of the Canadian Press, the other thru being connected with the Associated Press. Speaking relaying newi from Europe, Mr. Cumin said that the Associated Press writers on the continent put in their news stories a tint ot American flavor and that the stories contained European propaganda. DISTRIBUTED CANADA The Canadian Press editor at New York re-edlted the copy, deleting the American tint and the propaganda, and relayed It to Ottawa, where it was put on the teletype and sent tb distributing centers. Following an enjoyable supper, a sing-song was held. Selections by Harold Mellor-Langdale, piano, were warmly received. George Crtfg, sr., accompanied by his son James at the piano, gave a vocal selection. Mr. Curran was introduced by _. M. Daly, president-manager of the Rossland-Miner Limited. A vote of thanks was moved by Rev. T. W. Reed. Two Nominees for 3 Seats Rossland Aldermanic Race ROSSLAND, B.

MORE ABQUT MINE DISASTER (Continued, From Page One) While the men cleared the tunnel mouth of rock brought crashing down by a dynamite blast more than four hours before, a huge section of pit wall directly above them slid down, piled up at the drift entrance and poured inside engulfing seven of the nine men there. Burled and believed killed outright were Albert Lemieux, 37-year- old Thetford Mines alderman; Ad- olphe Theberge, 39; Edmond Emery, 43; Donat Gregoire, 42; Ludger Aubut, 46; Louis Nadeau, 84 and Joseph Perron, 44. Thirty-four children were made fatherless by the tragedy. Youthful Philippe Nadeau and Girard Morln, members of the crew ot nine In the tunnel, escaped practically unhurt. Nadeau said the wave of dirt which swept into the tunnel mouth burying his seven companions carried him back out of danger. Morin, a brakeman ln charge of a string of cars into which rock brought down by the dynamite blast was being loaded, waa protected from death by the cars. He said at the time of the fall he was at work under the cars and their protection saved him.

J. MacKay 702 Bower Bldg., Vancouver eaatem Europe that Chancellor Hitler Intends to move in that direction soon. I have Just finished a tour of Germany and all the countries from Poland and down through the Balkans, and the general opinion among observers was that this would be the Nazi chief's next big activity. Many thought he might act in the spring. But all agreed this,master opportunist would proceed as in the past and be governed by circumstances. The Important thing in their minds was that he was set to go at the right moment. This would mean a Russo-German conflict, barring a miracle. However, the way matters now stand in Europe's tangled affairs, this need not cause ■■ a general flight. Many believe it could be confined to eastern Europe, though there would t}t the possibility ot Japanese action against Russia in the lar east. The prospect of Hitler attempting to achieve nis long cherished ambition of bringing the Ukraine under German control naturally gives rise to these pertinent questions: 1. How would Hitler account for his promise at the time of the Czecho Slovak crisis that his demands represented his last territory claims ir Europe? 2. How would Germany get' a*^ Russian territory since Polish and Russian soil intervenes? 3. What about the Franco-Russian defensive alliance which was to take care of just such a contingency? i. Would Hitler try to annex the Ukraine, thereby creating a minority problem by trying to absorb this fiercely independent people? There is an answer to each of these. Let's take them in turn: 1.1 heard Hitler's impassioned speech in which he declared he had no further European territorial claims. The moment he said this it flashed across me that he very likely waa excluding Russia mentally when he spoke of "Europe." I put this to other observers and they agreed this was a likely explanation since it was wholly im- propable he had abandoned a hope so great and of such long standing. 2. It is not impropable he has in mind trying to draw Poland in as an ally, thereby creating a gateway quid pro quo for Poland, in event quad pro quo for Poland, in event of victory, would be a slice of Russian territory. 3. France found it impossible to go to the aid of her ally—one might almost say foster child—Czechoslovakia, and the consensus seems to be an attack on Russia would not provide the French with any greater motive to go to war. By similar token there would not seem to be a first call for British intervention. 4.1 haven't yet found any expert who believes Hitler Intends to annex the Ukraine. He is too smart to create such a minority problem. He presumably would set it up as an autonomous republic but bring it under the absolute. domination ■ of the reich. He doesn't need to annex it to obtain all the benefits.

MONTREAL, Dec. 8 (CP)-As Montreal's civic election campaign floats down the home stretch on a tide of oratory, the doors to the mayor's office are swinging open for one ot three men: 1, A' one-time "favorite son" of the big city, toppled from that pedestal—and the mayoralty—two years ago. 2: A youthtul legislative assembly member who says he wants to- stop the workers from being exploited by professional politicians. 3. A merchant making his debut to civic politics on a platform of "honest" administration. Once the darling ot the city's electorate, ■ dynamic Camillien Houde was rejected at the pools in the last contest in 1936. .Now he is trying to get back to the mayor's chair on Dec. 12 against the opposition of Candide Rochefort, defeated 1936 candidate and union nation- ale member of the legislature, and Charles A. Gascon, a middle-aged business man. The three are fighting to fill the vacancy created by the withdrawel of J. Adehmar Raynault who recently decided he wouldn't "seek re-election. The dapper little mayor, rounding out his only term at city hall, said he was tired of the turmoil of municipal politics. Both he and Rochefort are of the same political stripe—union nation- ale. Houde's turbulent days ln the legislature assembly were spent in the ranks ot the conservatives— once he was provincial leader— but now he is running under no official political banner. Campaign issues are not striking in the election. Houde is telling the electors ot his stewardship In the previous three terms he served. ONE CANDIDATE IS 34 His opponents are making much of the fact the 49-year-old political veteran resigned in 1936 before the end of his third term. Houde walked out then, four months before election time, saying he and Maurice Duplessis', union nationale government of Quebec couldn't pull together. Gascon's chief plank is honesty, and business-like government at city hall. He Is a 50-year-old business man in the real estate and grocery lines. , Rochefort. youngest of the trio, is only 34. His opponents say he tl "only a boy", but he says that means nothing. Appealing to the workcji, he tells them to elect "on -ifv-rr-Tstr who has been a worker himself." To aid unemployment, he promises protection for industry here in the way bf taxation revision. ... WtL.. would add annually more than $20,000,000 to the national income, enable the undertaking of more public works and relieve Canada s unemployment problem, Senator Arthur Marcotte of Pontelx, Sask, said here last night. The senator said Canadians every year spend WMSWjm the Irish sweepstakes. "And if thfcs sum is spent on a lottery which under federal law is illegal," he said, "can you imagine how much more-they would spend if a legalized lottery was operated by the government for a purpose from which the Canadian people would benefit directly?" ' • Senator Marcotte believed tickets in a national lottery could be sold at post offices like "postal notes or money ordere." "This would mean the elimination ot fraudulent operators,' he said, "as the forging of one of the tickets would become a criminal offence, punisljable not by a fine but by a prison term." Some opponents of the national lottery scheme held that such a sweep would ruin morals and encourage people to become gamblers, said the senator. "But nevertheless," he said, "we are allowed to gamble on the stock markets, bet on the races, operate wheels of fortune at exhibitions, buy lottery tiokets at bazaars and play bingo every day it we care to; nobody sees anything wrong in that. But buy a sweepstake ticket and you immediately become socially contaminated. Is that logic?"

Threatened Shutdowns, Unsettled Zinc Market Said Result of Pad NEW YORK, Dec. 8 (AP)-Many sine producers tn the United States find it impossible to operate in the face of price cuts and threats of further reductions, the American Zinc Institute reported today. It said sev? eral mines and smelters were considering Immediate shutdowns. The situation, the Institute's state, ment charged, was due to the tariff concessions on zinc ore and slab zinc in the new trade agreement with Canada, slated to become effective Jan, 1. The concessions provide for a reduction of the duty on zinc ore to $1.20 per 100 pounds from $1.50, and on slab zinc to $1.40 from $1.75. The statement says the "injurious effects of the agreement have already become apparent, ln the un settling of the domestic market, in threatened shutdowns of mines and smelters, and in prospective wage reductions and layoffs for employees." Recent figures show a drop of $5 a ton in ore prices and $11 a ton for slab zinc. "The concessions Incorporated In the new agreement," the statement says, "not only definitely penalize domestic producers, but by reason of the most favored nation clause Invite importations from all foreign zinc-producing countries except Germany." \ ' On Dec. 7 the institute, which asserts it represents 95'per cent or more of the industry, filed a protest with, the state department against the tariff concessions and urged withdrawal of them.
