Arrive Safely ln Britain LONDON, May IS (CP).—Queen Wilhelmina of Holland arrived ln England tonight Queen Wilhelmina was met at Liverpool street station by King George who welcomed her to England. She came only a few hours after the arrival of Crown Princess Juliana, heir to the Dutch throne; Prince Consort Bernhard and their two small daughters. The Queen came to England aboard a British warship amid reports of "fifth column" plots to Ijid- nap the Royal family. Juliana and Bernard also were at the station. A Royal car took the party to Buckingham Palace. Tiie Queen, who is 59, was wearing a navy blue coat and skirt with a dark blue hat and carried a gas mask over one shoulder. King George, In naval uniform, walked across a roped-off space on the station platform, clasped the Queen's hand and kissed her on both cheeks. Princess Juliana led her two-year- old daughter Betrix by the hand, while nine-month-old Irene was brought in a gas-proof box. Prince Bernhard carried one end of the box and a nurse the other. The Earl of Harewood, brother-in- law of King George, met the Royal family at the station. A communique issued by the Foreign office, with authority from the Dutch legation, stated: "It Is, of course, of paramount importance even if the worst should happen (for which fortunately there ls no indication at present) that the Royal House of Orange-Nassau should be safe."

TAILOR SHOP ROBBED VANCOUVER, May IS (CP) - Sixty-five bolts of cloth, valued at tlSOO were stolen by burglars who broke into the tailor shop of F. W. Beaton over the weekend. Great Activity afB.C.Shipyards By ARTHUR MERKEL (Canadian Press 8taff Writer). VICTORIA, May 13 (CP). — If you would like to get mixed up In something that combines the noise of Babel and the heat of Hades, just enter one of the British Columbia shipyards now that they are working under forced draught to complete orders of the munitions and supply department. This writer visited four of them In two days and felt he had been condemned to perdition, what with the racket of the riveters, the heat of blast furnaoes and the blinding blue flash of acetylene torches slicing through thick steel. Less than two months ago, the government ordered minesweepers and patrol vessels in British Columbia. Since then, Yarrows, Ltd., and Victoria Machinery Depot Co., Ltd., both in Victoria, each have laid keels and begun erecting hull framework on one vessel as well ss preparing the way for another. In North Vancouver, the Burrard Drydock Company has the framework started on one vessel and the keel laid for another. The North Vancouver Ship Repairs, Ltd., has the keels laid for three more. All have contracted to have their first vessels completed before the end of the year. In one shipyard, workers are converting a former coastal steamship, into an armed cruiser. Once the top-decks made her ride high. These have been torn away and lower gun mountings substituted. Her funnel structure has been changed. Now, despHe her rusty- colored, paintless exterior, she looks as racy as a yacht Within the hull ot this ship, with workmen using compressed air agitators to remove paint and others riveting new plates for gun mountings, the noise seemed particularly deafening. Naval authorities said the alterations had been designed to allow a minimum of remodelling but to assure she will be able to undertake the normal activities of cruisers although her bull will have no armor plating.

Peter Nielsen today was l nmlllarizing herself with Ottawa and Parliament Hill where, on . Thursday, she will take her aeat as I member of the House of Commoni lor North Battleford. Candidate of a group united to forget party intereiti end elect members who would devote themselves to Immediate needs of the weitern farmers, Mrs. Nilesen campaigned over her 30,000 square mi.e riding ai a unity candidate to gain «, itlhatantlal majority over the lea- toned former Liberal member, Cameron Mcintosh. i "I am what might be called an Instructed delegate sent here to tight for certain pressing needs of distressed western farmers," Mri. Nielien laid, "but I am free to support any political group that apon- nthe cause of my elector!." n. Nielsen haa no illusions About the life that has been to suddenly opened for her. While she has ipent toe laat 13 yean ln a log cabin, striving with her husband, to carve out a home in the wilderness and raise their family of three children, she had aeen much of life before ahe went to Western Canada. Born in London, ahe was at ichool in Belgium when the first Great War itarted. She returned at once to her home and, aa a high ichool girl, witnessed most of the German air raida on London. She fears that the present conflict will bring even more frightful experiences. "It li a meet critical time for me to gain my firat experience in Parliament," Mrs. Nielien laid, "and I know everybody will be mainly concerned with the war effort." "But we muit not neglect lhe immediate domestic problems and Soae that will inevitably ariie of- r the war. It we neglect thoae Sroblems we will lose the wir even ! we defeat our enemies in the field. Adequate pricei for farm products, education and medical reform and elimination of profiteering are the basic planks in Mrs. Nielsen's platform. Mrs. Neilsen visited Parliament Hill Saturday. Dr.' Arthur Beau- chesne, clerk of the House of Commons greeted the new member who will be the only woman in the chamber, had her sign the roll and take the oath, and assigned her to the sixth floor office quarters, occupied for 18 years by Agnei Macphail, first woman to be elected to the Canadian Parliament.

Nail Care.. * Use Egg Pack lo Bleach Elbows By DONNA GRACE This ia tbe part of our beauty program that we devote to our hands and nails. First, remove the poliih and icrub the nails well with plenty of soap and water. Then imooth the edges with an emery board and loosen the cuticle from the sides and base. Do not cut it unless lt is ragged. Buff the nails with a powder pollih. Do. thii frequently whenever you have the time, aa It stimulates the circulation and encourages long, beautiful nails. Now consider your hands, arms and elbows. They, too, need a thorough scrubbing with a rich lather of warm water and soap. You can uae a bath brush and the friction will remove dead akin particles. Rinse well, pat dry and generously apply a rich cream or lotion over the armi and handi. The elbows may need a pack to bleach and refine the akin. A simple one can be made by beating one egg and adding the Juice of one lemon and enough almond meal to thicken lt to the consistency of mayonnaise. Leave on for five minutei, then remove with tepid water and apply a manage cream. Have ready a lubricating mixture for the nails. Equal parts of vaseline, glycerine, olive oil and a few drops of oil of lavender can be used tor this. Warm the mixture so that lt will penetrate and be sure to get it well under the nails at the sides. Select the dress you are going to put on In the morning and have your harmonizing bottle of nail polish on the dressing table ready tor use. If you haven't time to let the polish dry thoroughly, its far better to leave off all polish and depend ort your buffing to bring a lustre to the nails.

Training Child »X GARRY C. MYERS, Ph.D. Aa tbe dayi crow longer babies and young children want to arise earlier. But it ll not well for babies and young children to get up with the birds. Consider the sleep they lose when they do and Bleep their mothen also lose. Regardlesi of the season, many babies and young children don't sleep nearly long enough in the morning. Some young children, especially on the farm, get up when their parenti do—at four or tive or ilx—end itay up till their parents go to bed. Such need not happen. It wont if the parents made a sensible plain and carry this plan through. . FOLLOW PROGRAM You aay it can't be done, except with a few children? Yea, if can. It was done with our children end it was done with many other children I have studied. The cost in pain to the parent and child to accomplish it la about nothing. The gain to both parent and child In comfort, health and general welfare il ten thousand-fold, perhaps. Decide on a desirable hour for Uie tot to get up in the morning. set the alarm clock for that time. When the clock rings go for the child, or lt he is old enough let bim get up and dress alone. If he awakens earlier let that be his Srlvllege, hut he muit not stand in ie crib or get out of hla cot till the designated ime. If he does, give him pain without exception- a good smacking, preferably. Don't tell him to go back to sleep, merely that he must not get up. It you hold yourself literally to this program, he wlil find the world io drab and unattractive that he will, after a few mornings, Juit fall back to sleep. But if you are lrtconsi stent, don't hold younelf rigidly to the clock, or it in any way you create the slightest doubt in nil mind about the program, he will hold out indefinitely — beg, whine, cry and create all sorts of disturbances. Then don't expect him to sleep later on Sundiy or holidays thtn any other day. He ahould rite at exactly the aame hour the year round. Continue with this program indefinitely after the child enters school. As he neara adolescence, even earlier, he may want to sleep longer than hli school program will allow. Some parenti, thinking only of their own comfort and welfare, will allow the child to get up and play quietly with hii toya whenever he happens to awaken. It'i their child, of coune, but it they are considering his health and welfare, they probably will prefer to train him to sleep until a regular reaaonable hour in the morning. They ahould remember that it ia not only tte hour when t child goes to bed that determines how much he sleeps, but also the time when he awakens In the morning. Tbey ihould realise, moreover, that the child wht choosea least sleep lt the very child who needs moat of it, being to excitable and high-strung. .

Spring Tonic Is Available at Zoo By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. O. In these Spring days some people need tonics md some need sedatives. Middle-aged people trt likely to be made more restless and discontented by Spring than encouraged and vitalized. They are likely to be cantankerous and crou and they need to be soothed by contact with great forcei of nature. I agree with the prescription that was given for Mr. Pontlfex in "The Way of All Flesh". The doctor told hint: "I have found the Zoological Gardens of service to many of my patients. I should prescribe for Mr. Pontlfex a course of the larger mammals. Don't let him think he is taking tham medicinally, but let him go to their house twice a weeit (or a fortnight, and stay with tht hippopotamus, the rhinoceros and the elephahts, till they begin to 'boro him. I find these beasts do my patients more good than any others. The monkeys are not a wide enough cross; they do not stimulate sufficiently. The larger carnivore are unsympathetic. The reptiles tre worse than useleu, and the marsupials are not much better. Birds again, except parrots, are not very beneficial; he may look at them now and again, but with the elephants and the pig tribe generally he should mix just now u freely u pouible." PATIENT CURE FOUND Mr. Pontlfex's reaction to thu advice is given u follows: "Had the doctor been leu eminent ln his profession I should have doubted whether he wu ln earnest but I knew him to be a man of'busi- ness who would neither wute his own time nor that of his patients. As soon u we were out of the house we took a cab to the park, and spent a couple of hours ln sauntering around the different housei. Perhaps it wu on account of what the doctor had told me, but I certainly became aware of a feeling I had never experienced before. I mean that I wu receiving an influx ot new life, or deriving new ways of looking at life—which is the same thing—by the proceu. I found the doctor quite right ln his estimate of the larger mammals u the ones which on the whole were most beneficial, and observed that Ernest, who had heard nothing of what the doctor had said to me, lingered instinctively in front of thtm. As for tht elephants, especially the baby elephant, he seemed to be drinking in large draughts of their lives to the recreation and regeneration of his own." QUESTIONS and ANSWERS S. A. R.: "What are the symptoms of hardening of the arteriei and what precaution! can be taken ln regard to diet, etc., in order to trrest this condition and overcome it?" Answer: I sincerely wish I knew what were the causes of hardening ot the arteries. Some people believe thtt Increue In the tmount ot salt and meat in the diet causes this, and some believe that the excitement of high preuure modern life is the cause. I do not subscribe to either of these beliefs. I am inclined to believe the fundamental cause of the condition la hereditary. The most important thing in the way of treatment is not to worry about it and not to think too much about it. Hardening of tht trteries ln itself does not cause symptoms.

By Richard Houghton THE KILLER SPEAKS CHAPTER S3 After Muriel'! indiscreet uie nf the telephone in my room in the middle of the night my emotions were in t turmoil. Louise, I was afraid, would think the wont of iht. I hadn't realized how much I wanted her good opinion. I couldnl undentand Muriel's behavior. Suddenly she had become vindictive. But why—when the was in love with Jerry? Why ahould the thought that I wu no longer in love with her make her so angry? Do women so dislike learning that men sometimes could tall out of love with them? As for Louise being to love with me I drove my mind resolutely from that subject. My business now was to solve the riddle of Alfred Mark- ham'i death—or rather, the riddle of what had Immediately preceded his death. I felt certain that he had gone into the garden that night to meet someone, and that he resented my presence because his meeting wu to be strictly private. It seemed logical that the man he wu to have met wu the man who kidnapped me an hour later. The fellow had been late for his appointment All this fitted nicely together, but I still didn't know the purpose of the appointment That was the key to the mystery, I wu sure. According to Belzer the man who kidnapped me wu a bootlegger. My own experience showed that he was more than a bootlegger. He had dealings of some kind with two drug addicts. I had to find that man! Despite the warnings he had sent me I knew he had to be found if I wu to learn the real reason behind Alfred's death—the reason he had acted so strangely that night the reai- on he wanted to be alone in the garden where he was killed. I wondered if the number "732" could be a street addrere or a telephone number. I thumbed through the telephone directory. I knew the names of some of the places on the waterfront and I soon saw that there were no street numbers in the 700's in that district. The streets were numbered from the waterfront outward. There were three telephone exchanges. 1 began with the most obvious one, asking for Brentwell 732. There was no aniwer. Clagstone 732 brought a sharp reply from a woman—I judged she must have been the maid in the house—and she hung up the receiver when I uked the address of the place. I tried Surry 732 with a little more diplomacy, but no more success. A chinaman answered the phone. I could sec no solution except to look through the telephone book until I found the addresses of the three numbers. If one of them wu near the waterfront I would gb down and watch the place for my man. That the man had a part In the actual killing I knew wts impossible, but I also knew that he wu a desperate character and I would have to be careful. I wu lucky in finding Brentwell 732 among the C's. The namt was William Calla and the address was 2 Cleaves Street. Cleaves Street originated in the warehouse district along the river. The coincidence was striking. I grabbed up my hat and itarted out. The warehouse district was spread for considerable distance along the river. I alighted four blocks fropi Cleaves Street, knowing that a taxi would he too nollctnbl". ODen slieds along the bulkhead abutting the river sheltered black shadows in the shapes' of sacks, bales of fragrant bay, and collections of machinery destined for the boats. At any other tlmt I might have looked on the shadows'with distrust but tonight they offered me shelter. I kept under the cover of the sheds u much ti pos6ible. The street lamps drew farther and farther apart u I ncared my destination. Tiie smell of drying onions mingled with the odor of tar on the boats whose lonely red and green lanterns swayed above the water to my right As I paused in the shadows of a wall before emerging into the square at the end of Cleaves Street I looked back and saw a thin wisp of a tog blowing acrou the nearest street light a block away. The moon wu Juit beginning to rise, but If the tog came in the night would be dark. The river foga were dente. There wun't a sound anywhere, except the lapping ot water and the creaking of ropes around Uie deserted bottt. I couldn't iee i soul. There wu no sign of life to any of the buildings acrou the itreet That building must be the very one I wu looking for, I told myself. It wu on the very edge of the bulkhead above the river, seeming to be no more than 15 ftct from the lights of the nearest bolt Although I had heard tht movement of a door there was no light ti thought the penon Inside did not wish hii presence known. That place looked familiar. Suddenly I remembered that I had been here before. I had been with friends. One of them had Insisted on coming to this house to see a man. No one had been mentioned. I had thought it strange at the time. Now I realized that it wu more than strange. I shuddered. I didn't want to believe the horrible suspicion that came to my mind, yet it wu the answer to everything. I believed I knew, it leut the secret behind Alfred Markham's death! I must identify the mtn to that house. If I could make aure he wat my kidnapper . . . I tiptoed quickly acrou the street to the deepest shadow on the other side. It proved to be the entrance to t narrow alley between buildings. I entered it tnd felt my wty along, trusting thtt the. sound of someone moving about in the building on my right meant that I wts still unnoticed! Fifteen feet from the street the alley ended in a solid wall, but the house on my right had a little en- tryway through a back garden. I pushed open the gate cautiously and found myself looking over the river. Ten feet ahead of me three wooden steps led up to the back door of the house, whilch wu shut and beside the door a window glowed dully u though newspapers had been pasted over the glass. I stepped forward and put my ear close to tht window and listened. I heard glau clinking and something thumping softly on the floor. The sounds fitted well with my Idea of tht mth I was looking tor. This wis another of Ml distribution points for sacklotds of bottles. , I wu fairly sure thli wai the man but I had lo be certain. It would be awful to summon the police tnd then discover thtt I'd made t mil- take. There didn't seem to be much chance of looking into the roo.n. I leaned down and tried the crack under the door. AH I could see wu i pair oj! ihoei moving tround. The ict of letning over dislodged a pencil from my breut pocket I made a grab for it but wu too late. It clattered down tbe steps. The fett Inside the room paused. I held my bretth. "Who's there?" asked t gruff voice, I recognized it It wu my man.

There are disquieting indications that the King Government is receptive to the Siren Song of Uncle Sam .n the St. Lawrence Waterways project. Prime Minister King is said to consider that his election mandate covers this matter, though it was not mentioned in the campaign. With President Roosevelt pledging fraternity, and seeking to have this feather in his cap, there is danger in the situation. Not only have the different national parties gone on record against this scheme, but practically all the business bodies in Canada outside the local territory benefitted have also declared against it. There are plenty of sound reasons for Canada to shy away from this project, which is mainly devised to give tiie United States some choice bacon on a share basis, with Ontario sharing the bacon, but the whole of Canada sharing the cost. And the cost is "some cost," the different official reports show. Let us approach this stupendous figure gradually. The Panama Canal cost the United States taxpayer 1875,000,000. It was quite a sizable job, and took quite a long time to put through. Three times that figure is $1,125,000,000, which is about one-222nd part larger than the estimated cost of the Si Lawrence project. On any kind of an equal share basis therefore, the minimum each country could expect to dig down for would be one and a half times the cost of the Panama Canal. But, in the light of all business experience with grandiloquent projects of engineers and politicians, have we any right to expect tiie cost of the St. Lawrence Waterway and Power Development would actually be anywhere near tin estimate now made? The Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal was officially estimated to cost $16,000,000. The engineers were the •blest that could be found. It cost $53,000,000 in round figures. Back a couple of generations a French company dreamed dreams of changing the Mediterranean from being • sea with a blind end, to a direct route to India, by means of excavating a canal across the Isthmus of Suez. The cost was figured by De Lesseps, the greatest engineer of his time, at $30,000,000. He had the building of it, and it cost $80,000,000. Still another Instance, the Panama Canal, already referred to: The United States army engineers estimated the cost at $160,000,000, General Goethals, who carried the great project through, was obliged to spend $375,000,000 on it, or considerably more than double the estimate. Now, if the St Lawrence Waterway and Power Project should ever be realized, and'the able engineess engaged on it hd the same amount of human frailty as their distinguished predecessors on the other enterprises, it would cost at least "considerably more than double the estimate'." In such case, the expenditure would be something better than six Panama Canals would cost. Can Canada afford to obligate itself to pay for three Panama Canals, even if their function was to connect oceans now several thousand miles apart by marine sailing? Can.it afford to assume such a burden and then not have anything more than a canalized river open for only part of the year, the route opening no new territory, and saving no time or distance? Uncle Sam's bacon—or to be strictly accurate, New York State's bacon—is no immediate concern of Canada's. Buying the job of errand boy to Uncle Sam does not promise to be a cheap sailor's holiday. FIRST LADY WORKS FOR A SOAP FIRM Everybody will admit the ability, independence of thought, and charm of the First Lady of the United States. Almost from the time that Franklin Roosevelt became President, Mrs. Roosevelt has exercised her writing ability, and syndicated her talents for a vast circle of readers. Numerous Canadian papers reproduce her daily article. Authorship, however, is in good repute, and Mrs. Roosevelt's innovation was not seriously rapped. The President himself made large sums from reproduction of his speeches and state papers, and there was a good deal of criticism of him for it. Their son, James Roosevelt, now a Hollywood executive, made great commissions for his insurance firm, on government business he took away from competitors, and there was more criticism. But the critics have dealt more gently with the delightful and spritely First Lady. Almost the only criticism made of her, until very lately, has been through James' former insurance firm, of which she is a director, receiving another big haul in the shape of the insurance on the Dollar Line which is now operated under the Government. The very latest departure, however, of the First Lady of the United States accepting employment from a soap manufacturer, has drawn a good many pointed remarks. With these latest critics, residents of the Kootenay will feel a good deal of sympathy, when they see the advertisements in the Spokane Spokesman-Review, which, using the picture of Mrs. Roosevelt, read: "Listen every Tues. & Thurs. Eleanor Roosevelt's own program, Station KHQ— 9:15 a.m. Presented by SweetHeart Soap." If Mrs. Roosevelt were going on the air under the . auspices of a lecture bureau, or of the particular network concerned, it would be only a logical extension of her syndicate writing. But to have a commercial sponsor hardly comports with the dignity of the position she occupies. -NELSON DAILY NEWS. NELSON. B. C-TUElDAY "MORNINO.

Junkers Brought Down by New British Plane LONDON, May 13 (CP)-Latest model British Boulton Paul defiant pursuit planes scored a victory In their first five minutes of battle by shooting down a Junkers 88 over the Dutch coast yesterday, the Air Ministry announced today. A squadron of the crack new planes, which are equipped with electrically controlled gun turrets, were cruising over The Hague when they spotted the Junker attempting to bomb three British ships off the coast. Three Defiants swooped on the Germsn bomber, which turned its guns on the first British plane, piloted by a squadron leader. At close range, the squadron leader fired a machine-gun burst Into the enemy machine, which dived to a low altitude with thick smoke streaming from its port motor. It streaked landward over the water with the Defiants in hot pursuit and finally crashed in a field. MRS. ELLIOTT HEADS SOUTH SLOCAN C.W.L. SOUTH SLOGAN, B.

Cutworm Control Musi Begin Early Cutworms tre usually active and feeding before most crops are even ln the pound. Hence, aaya Alan G. Dustan, Division ot Entomology, Dominion Department of Agriculture, It It Important to be prepared for their attacks at the first of he seuon. Bran bait haa given effective control for many yeara. It is made up ot bran, 20 pounds, Parla green, one-halt pound, molasses, one quart and water, about 2W, gallons. In making the bait,' the dry Ingredients should first be thoroughly mixed. The molasses is stirred Into the water and added to the bran and Paris green. In mixing, add only enough water to make the material the consistency ot sawdust. It should not be made sloppy but ao that it will crumble ln the hands and slip through the fingers easily. Land that was heavily infested ln the former year should be treated before the planta are set out. This Is done by broadcasting the bait at the rate of 15 to 20 pounds per acre a few nights before transplanting. One application should be sufficient, but if the cutworms are numerous a second application should be made two or three days after the first Always spread bait in the evenings Just before dusk, and If possible, choose a warm, still night for the work. If the attack Is unexpected and the plants are already in the field, the bait ahould be applied around the base ot each plant using about V, teaspoonful for each. Should one application not kill all the cutworms a second treatment should be made two or three nights later. * RED CROSS NOTES Instructions for Red Cross Articles Must Be Followed Closely While volume of articles being made in Nelson and district for Red Crosa war aupplles continues good, considerable extra work ls being caused through volunteers failing to follow closely the instructions for making the various articles, stated Mrs. C.

WATER WINGS OVER EUROPE1 _-^^^_._.-._.^ ■ ** J ljSMHj^M&lK}^HHBR9_|HR_pi (0S0 ote of Confidence Given Churchill as He Urges War Push By J. F. 8ANDERSON Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON, May 13 (CP Cable)— Prima Minister Churchill told the Houte of Commoni today that ha had only ona policy, to wage war with one aim, to achieve victory, when appealing for a vote of confidence In hit ntw administration. Ai a symbol of Brltaln'i ntw political unity, the Houte untnl- . mously voted confldenct In Mr. Churchill's Qovernment, the vote being 381 to 0. The Houie of Lord's alio acoorded the new gov- (ernment a unanlmoui vote of confidence and both houses then adjourned to May 21. With Clement Attlee, Lord Privy Seal, sitting on one tide ol him on the treasury bench and Neville Chamberlain, Lord President ot the Council, on the other, Britain's new Prime Minister warned the country that.the parliamentary stage has arrived ot "one ot the greatest battles in history." He urged the nation as a whole to "go forward together with our united strength." When he entered the chamber before the short debate, Mr. Churchill was cheered loudly, but Mr. Chamberlain, who followed a minute later, received an even bigger cheer Only two voices were raised against the new coalition, those of James Maxton, Scottish Pacifist and anti-war advocate, and his fellow member of the Independent labor party, Campbell Stephen, They forced the House to a division on the Prime Minister's motion, having to act as "tellen" — counters—for the "no's" they could not vote ln the lobby and had no • votes to count Asked whether a general discussion of the war would be likely ln the week following parliament's reassembly, Mr. Churchill said: "I am anxious, and Indeed resolved, to carry the House of Commons along with the Government tt every step in our fortunes as they unfold. It is by the strength of the House of Commons that we shall be largely sustained in this conflict. "At the present time we are in the preliminaries of a very great battle and I do not know what the position will be when we meet again. "Obviously If there is a general desire in the near future for a statement on the military situation and it is a suitable moment, and if there ■ is a wish to have a veneral debate, arrangements can be made tor it and I shall be glad to receive representations on that." Mr. Churchill reported his formation ot a war cabinet of five men Was carried out in one day because of "the extreme urgency and rigor of events." He told the house, suddenly summoned from recess for a day, that "I have nothing to offer but blood, toll, tears and sweat." The new Prime Minister received t great ovation as he appeared. "Our policy," Mr. Churchill said, "is to wage war by aea, land and ■ir, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give ui and to wage war againit a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime." The retiring Prime Minister, Neville Chamberlain, whom Mr. Churchill made Lord President of the Council in the new War Cabinet, also received an ovation as he entered the House with hii new chief. Mr. Churchill immediately upon the opening of the session preiented a resolution "that this House wel comes the formation of a govern ment representing the united and inflexible resolve of the nation to prosecute the war with Germany to a victorious conclusion." He said the Houie would adjourn after today's proceedings to May 21. The original dite for lta recall, with the usual provision for an earlier meeting if necessary, Anthony Eden, War Secretary, told a questioner in the House that he hoped to make an early statement on "immediate formation of a voluntary corps composed ot older men armed with rifles tnd Bren guns for instant action In tny locality" in Britain in view "of the imminent danger of enemy parachutists landing in this country." Mr. Churchill emphasised the seriousness of his task ot cabinet making by stating: "We are in the preliminary phase of one ot the greatest battles ln history. We are in action at many other points — ln Norway and in Holland ind we have to be prepared in the Mediterranean. On the queatlon of Brltaln'i aim, Mr. Churchill uid In ring Ing tones: "I cin aniwer In one word—It li victory —victory it ill eosts In spite of ill terrort." He wirned, however, thit there were miny, many long montha of struggle and suffering ahead. . Members of the House generally approved the declaration of the Prime Minister. Sir Percy Harris, Liberal, said Mr. Churchill had "the necessary vigor and imagination for the task ahead." H. B. Lees-Smith, Labor, praised the Prime Minister's "fighting and stirring and noble words which he has addressed to the nation." ■ Mr. Lees-Smith anonunced to the House the Labor Party conference vote at Bournemouth approving a participation ln the cabinet He said Britain's unity was gained "by discussion, persuasion, good will and good sense, not by the concentration camp, the rubber truncheon and the executioner's block." James Maxton, Independent Ll' bor, said he opposed the motion and did not approve of the government He declared no one could deny Mr Churchill's personality and courage, but said he could not see the "wonderful motive power supposed to have been produced by the change ln positions" of Messrs. Churchill and Chamberlain. W. P. Spans, Conservative, wel. corned the new Government and evoked an outburst of cheering when he praised Mr. Chamberlain for "the example set to the coun- try'' ln resigning. David Lloyd George, Liberal, sup. ported the motion and offered personal good wishes to his "old friend —the new Prime Minister." Congratulating the country on Mr. Churchill's elevation "at this very critical terrible moment," Mr. Lloyd George lauded the Prime Minister's "glittering Intellectual gifts, dauntless courage and profound study ot war, he experience In its operation and direction." With emphasis, he added: "They will all be needed now." "Friends of freedom and human right throughout the world wish him God-speed," Mr. Lloyd Geor(« declared. 'The sacrifices of Britain and her Empire will be at his disposal" Sir Stafford Cripps, Labor, warned that a "substantially" one-party Commons might lose interest in the votes and "alio ln the administration of the affairs ot the country." He suggested an overhauling ot the nation's Democratic machinery, a remark made amid cries of "Nol" Ben Smith, Labor, said there wai "■ lamentable ihortage of things that our armed forces are much in need of today." Sir Irving Albert, Conservative, criticized "certain Privy Councillors" who he said turned last week's debate on the Norwegian campaign "into a political manoeuvre."

A. McDonald, were burned by the City Fire Department Monday morning.

Hepburn Urges Revislonol Training System KINGSTON, Ont, Miy 13 (CP..~ Revision of "the whole system" ot military, training in Canada was demanded todiy by Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn ot Ontario, speaking 1 it t Joint luncheon of the Ontario Quebec Circulation Managers Asso PAOI SEVEN dation and tht Kingston Kiwanis Club. "We've got to revise the whole system of training in Canada," he said. "When I see boys tralninu with old Ross rifles and with bayonets rushing it sandbags 1 sometimes wonder how effective they would be against flame-throwers of the Italian army or the very modern machines of war used by Germany." There were two schools ot thought in Canada: That Britain ls the tint line ot defence tnd, tt she tills, Cinada falls with her; and that Canadians should wait until the enemy ls "at our gates." People ot this country would do well to awaken and review what has happened, to study bow "unprepared people 'we fallen before the mighty German war machine." "This war ls no sham. We must put forth every effort now. If there ire no guns or airplanes we must get them. Wealth doesn't mean very much right now."

'Nazis Will Slake Nearly Everything lo Win Quickly' LONDON, May IS (CP)-An authoritative British source said today that the main German attack on the lowlands was developing is expected and was attempting to drive a wedge between the Belgian and Dutch armies. There were many indication!, not necessarily military, thii Britiih source said, that the Nazis "will stake almost everything in an attempt to win this war quickly." Britons were urged not to be disheartened "when they hear of certain withdrawals and should not be unduly pessimiitic," he said, in emphasizing that reports for the next few days would be obscure, scarce and often Inaccurate. Information regarding parachutists in Rotterdam and The Hague, he said, was obscure and frequently contradictory. German parahutists, he said are all very highly trained in offensive technique and "armed to the teeth". He charged that they were chosen for ruthlessness and wore Allied uniforms, civilian clothes, police and postal uniforms and even women's dresses. Labor Approves joining Gov't.

To effect this will make for a greater degree of safety for alt concerned. Contrary to many opinions these tests are not made with a view to depriving anyone of the privilege of driving but rather to restrict such persons in whom actual physical faults are found, to driving only under circumstances in which they are found to be competent. This can'best be explained by describing the actual tests and the manner of restriction, if any, which may be imposed. Car Insurance TODAYJ ...TOMORROW! You never know when? So be prepared . . . cover your :ar today with a good sound company and save money with Pe Ee Poulin 682 Ward St Phoni 70 The applicant flnt approach*s the officer In charge of the examining unit and pays to him the aum of one dollar. He la iuued with a receipt and a copy ot one of the examination papen. As explained before, the examination papers list 25 questions, aU taken from the driver's manual. There are 10 sets of papers, all with a leparate aet of questions and the examiner hands one to each applicant, taken from thla iet of 10. Upon tha applicant completing the written section of the paper he is taken to the testing room where will be found all the equipment and apparatus for testing. He will be shown to the seat in a machine called a reactometer. This machine resembles the actual driving compartment ot an automobile, insofar aa It il equipped with seat, steering wheel, clutch and brake pedals, also a foot throttle or accelerator. Tests are first made of the sub ject'a eye-sight, while seated ln tho reactometer. The subject ia uked to read, with both and then alternate eyes, a seriei ot letten of graduated size on an illuminated chart, 28 feet in front of him. These charta are familiar to all who have undergone elementary eye tests In the offices of doctors, optometrists and othen. If the applicant passes thii preliminary, the examining officer proceeds to check hii ability to distinguish between the colon red, amber, green and white. This is done by meant ot lights placed just under the lettered chart mentioned. The purpose of the two preceding tests ia to determine whether or not the applicant is near sighted or color blind In one or both eyei. The result of all testa are endorsed on the examination papers of the subject in a apace provided.

C. otherwise described as a double vision condition. This ls done by means of a aet of specially ground lenses, mounted in a manner similar to the lorgnettes affected by aome of our ladies ot high society. Thli test has proven that a considerable number of people are afflicted with double vision without being aware of it The periphery or tunnel vision test which now follows is one of the moit important checks of all. Tunnel vision is one of the chiei causes of accidents at Intersections and sharp corners. This test is effected by placing ln front of the subject a semi-circular shaped Instrument, the ends of which extend along each side of the subject's head to a point approximately opposite each ear. With alternate eyes he ia obliged to look straight ahead and yet record his ability to see an object which is slid along the semi-circular shaped instrument toward the aide of hla head. The normal ilde vision ia 90 degrees or at right angles to the eye. Should there be a blank section aa ia very often the case, the subject is obviously afflicted with tunnel vision. Yet another test is made of the subject's ability to judge depth or distance. The applicant looks into an elongated box-like arrangement at the base of which are pictured in miniature, two objects such as a railroad crossing and a road sign. The examiner, by means of his controls moves these objects toward and away from the subject's eyes, the subject being obliged to Judge aa to their position in relation to each other. Very often one eye will make an accurate estimation while the other will be definitely out of balance. The effect ot this will of course Impair the subject's judgment of distance. The last test la probably the simplest of all, that ia the test for reaction to danger and ls done by means ot the reactometer already described,, the machine in which the subject has been seated throughout the previous tests. The examiner, by means ot hla controls, causes the green and amber lights on the board in front of the applicant to flash alternately, oft and on. At this time the applicant it sitting in the normal position of driving, with the right foot depressing the throttle or accelerator. Without further warning, the examiner causes the red light to flash on in a steady beam, in place-of the green and amber. This is the signal to the driver that sudden danger confronts him and he must immediately remove his foot from the accelera. tor and depress the foot brake pedal. The time which elapses from the moment when the red light first flashes to the time when the foot brake pedal commences to depress is recorded on an electrically operated itop clock on the examiner's control panel. This clock registers the time in one hundredth parts of a second, making an extremely accurate check. Four such recordings are taken from each subject, the average of all four being taken. These averages all range around three-fourtha part of one second. Just prior to leaving the testing room the applicant Is required to demonstrate his ability to interpret the standard road signs on a printed chart. These road signs, all of which are displayed in the Driver's Manual, are familiar to all of us, yet the subject must be able to explain the difference between an acute angled turn, a curve and so on. Many questions have been asked as to what happens to the person taking the tests who falls to pass all or part of them. As regards the written section of the test, a passing mark of 80 per cent is required and should an applicant fail in this, he is told to try again in one week's time. If he fails again, he is told lo return in 30 days. If upon this third attempt he again fails, his driver's licence is ordered suspended for a period of 30 days, to afford him an opportunity for further study of his driver's manual. In the case of someone falling to pass the eye tests, he is given a form upon which all details ot the defects found are endorsed. The subject is obliged to take thia form to aome competent authority, who may be a doctor, optometrist or similar official. After corrective measures are taken, the competent authority endoraes the form in a manner prescribed. Upon the subject returning thli form to the examiner, his driver's licence is restricted or otherwise, ln accordance with the recommendations of the competent authority. If for Instance the subject's eyes are found to be inefficient without eye-glasses, his driver's licence is restricted to driving only while wearing them. If, for another example, he is found to be colorblind, he may be restricted to speed in addition to other restrictions. If the tests show that he has a dangerously slow reaction time, he will probably be restricted in his speed, iuch ipeed not to exceed the given number of milei per hour endorsed on the driver's licence. In amputation and other cases of similar nature, the driver's licence may be restricted to operating cars equipped with automatic clutches, mechanical arm signals and similar devices. From the foregoing it may be seen that everyone is given every possible opportunity to paas the tests yet no one la summarily deprived of the right to drive. Without a doubt, these tests will go a long way toward proper education of our motorists, at the same time limiting the driving of those whose ability is somewhat less than average. The result cannot but make for a much greater margin of safety on the highways. There il one more point that should be cleared up. The present holders of driver's licences will not be required to undergo an actual road test. That ls to say, they will not be required to give an actual demonstration of their driving abilities. This will only be required of penons who have not held a driver's licence ln this Province and the holden of Class "A" and Class "_.'' chauffeur'! licences. The chauffeur's test will comprise a demonstration under actual conditions such as they will be called upon to meet in the coune of their usual employment, operating buses, taxis and similar equipment A point of intereit perhaps is that all driven tested to date only about one half of one per cent ol the total have been deprived outright of the privilege of driving. A good number have of course been obliged to drive under slight restriction orders, the majority ot these being confined to the wearing of eye-glasses while driving, or restricted in their maximum rates of speed. This system of restriction may at fint glance, appear to work a hardship on the motorist concerned yet considered in the light of Traffic Safety as a whole, there cannot be any doubt as to the benefit derived. Motorists can prevent the disappointment of failure in the written section of the examination by care^ ful study of the Motor Vehicle Operators' Manual before presenting themselves for testing. These Manuals are available at the local of fices of the British Columbia Police. Apart from the necessity of knowing the answers to the test questions, all motorists will find that the information contained in the Manual will prove of immense value in their everyday driving.

This has been the cause ot a number of accidents in the past, some of which have resulted in fatal Injuries. The regulations under the "Motor-Vehicle Act" require that the headlights of motor- vehicles shall not project a glaring or dazzling light to persons on the highway ln front of them, and while you, Mr. Driver, may complain bitterly against the other fellow, are you sure that your headlights comply with such regulations? The regulations also require that whenever on a highway during the period when headlights are required to be kept lighted, the driver or operator of a motor-vehicle equipped with multiple-beam headlights shall use the lower or passing beam of such headlights whenever an approaching or oncoming vehicle is at least 500 feet in front of him.

MAY 14. 1940,- School Brings Wealth of New Recipes to Interior Housewives World's Future Mothers'Charge Says Mr. Hopka "Upon tht mothen... rests largely the rehabilitation Of society." Thus declared Rtv. E. Hopka, Pastor of St. John's Lutheran Church Sunday evening in a special Mothers' Day address to a well-filled church. Basing hli remark! on Proverbs 31:25-30, and speaking on the ■ "Characteristics of a Good Mother", Mr. Hopka concluded his remarks With then words: "We cannot but appeal, in the fact ot the declining homes ot modern society and the sad economic conditions of our dty, to tht mothers ot this generation. Upon then, though they may not realize lt, and yet I believe it Is true, rests largely the rehabilitation of society. The next feneration will bt what the mothers ot this generation shape them to be. Someone hu said: 'The future of society ls ln the hands ot tht mothen. If tht world waa lost through woman, ihe alone can save B "When Napoleon, alarmed at the moral degeneracy of his day ind frightened it the economic conditions, wu uked, 'What does France used most?', he answered: 'Motli- en.' So do we. It the mothers of this generation were like Hannah in pioty and like Solome, the moth- 1« of Junes and John, in spiritual AUbltlon for their children, the Spverty, the injustice, the crime •nd vice of this generation would bt almost wholly lacking ln the ntxt." {In tht morning lervict attention lllllllllllllllllllllllilillllllliliillliillllll I * "BvU B. C. Payrolls" I ": Used It Over 3 Years wu directed to tbe festival ot Fen. tecoit, which alio occurred on thii Sunday. The putor based hii remark! on John 14:23-31. Hla topic wu the "Menage of the Christian's Ptntecoit" CHRISTIAN DUTY TOWARD GOVERNMENT A regulir feature of tbt evening services for some time hu been tht halt hour at Bible Study. For Sunday the passage in Romans IS: 1-7 wu taken up. Thli deals with the Christian'! estimate of and duty toward Government. The pastor stressed that the apostle here teaches that Government of no kind Is possible unlets supported by tha strong arm . t God, that 111 Governments exist by God's will only, that Governments are for the curbing of evil and tht praise of them that do well. Because of these tacts, tht apostle Insist! that Christians muit be subject to those Government! thtt hive Jurisdiction ovtr them. Thii they must do not only for the take of wrath, tor fear of the punishment that should be met ed out to them, but also for con. science' sake. The C'-ristlan'i conscience, guided by God's word, clearly tells him that Governments ire divinely Instituted and that God demuds obedience to its demands. All resistance to the divinely ordained powers, all subversive activities, all half-hearted service, especially whtn the country Is in danger, ls resistance against the ordinance of God, is sin, he declared. And this sin, If persisted in, will lead to loss ot the Christian faith and position u surely as will any other sin lt continued in. The putor stated that this clearly is the teaching of the Bible, and hence also, that of the Lutheran Church represented by St. John's Lutheran Church ln this city. Christians must be loyal subjects, or they cannot be Christians. SIRDAR *%Ay* family has used Pacific Milk for over three years rtow," writes Miss E. E.

WITH THE BRITISH EXPEDI- TIONj\RY FORCE IN BELGIUM, May 12 (Delayed) (AP).—Tanks and armored cars of the British Expeditionary Force threw their first fire Into the advancing Germani today and there was no doubt that the first great battle of this war had begun. Informed sources told me thst Germans had two armored divisions in the van ot the attack; synchro' nized with a terrific aerial bombing. Despite serious losses in The Netherlands, Belgium and France — placed by some ln the neighborhood of 200 planes — the German fliers still are hammering at their ob.ee' lives. A new front was established by landings of German parachute troops behind the Allied lines. As I write, this dingy hotel shakes with the thuds of bombs falling outside the town and with the deep "twung twung" of anti-aircraft batteries. I have been on the continent just 3d houn but I have heard sirens scream the "alerte" 11 times, seen six Nazi bomben methodically lay their eggs, watched two fall burning to earth and seen scan of their operations.

A French observer counted 18 craters, but said proudly "they were hurried, those devils, look——" Sure enough, there was a train chugging steadily along the trucks In a Journey of nearly 300 miles over this little nation there was grim evidence of what total war means. There was two-way traffic on the roads. Moving toward the dlsftnt sound of guns were British men, materials and munitions In trucks, widely spaced to offer unattractive bombing targets. Moving slowly away from the guns was another army—the army of homeless stricken. Refugees went through the thick white dust toward the safety that may lie behind the lines.

Battle Against Time to Finish Spring Planting WINNIPEG, May « (CP) .-Seeding drills cut into thousands of acres of Weitern wheatlands today as prairie farmers rushed to complete planting ot the 1940 grain crop. Western grain growers battled against time to finish Spring seeding operations now far behind the schedule maintained lut ynr. With moisture condlUoria'.m**mkl*s per cent below normal for the Western grain belt as a whole, approximately halt of the Spring wheat planting has been done. A year ago about 90 per cent ot land had been seeded by this time while moisture conditions within a few percentage points of normal. Manitoba farmers appear to have been favored with the West's best seeding conditions. Almost all wheat has been seeded and the molstur.? situation Is within 20 per cent of normal. About half the wheat seeding has been completed ln Saskatchewan where moisture ls approximately 40 per cent below normal Most of the seeding has taken place in the Southern areu while many Northern farmers are awaiting more favorable weather. Alberta Is the only prairie province with moisture conditions above normal but farmers there have been hampered by the heavy precipitation and only about 15 per cent of the land has been seeded. Every district ln Alberta hu been favored with good moisture while Northern and Central Saskatchewan I need rains to aid early germination Northwestern Manitoba farmlands also require soaking rains. Bright spot of ihe Saskatchewan picture is the Southwestern area, which for years suffered from drought, but now hu more moisture than normal. Some farmers report their land to be ln better condition than lt hu been for at least 10 years. Oata and barley growers ln Manitoba have almost half their seed ln the ground. Saskatchewan coarse pain seeding ranges from less than five ner cent to within 20 per cent completed while Alberta producers have juat started.

B Doelle, Manager ot the Sheep Creek Gold Mines Ltd., tnd outpost member of the Club at the luncheon meeting at the Hume Monday. "The lint diKovery of gold ln the Sheep Creek district was made in 1896," Mr. Doelle said. "This was the Yellowstone vein, now part of the property of the Sheep Creek Gold Mines. Mining was started in 1898 and was carried on until 1918, at which time operations ceased due to the high cost of commodities and labor. In all this time the total production of the camp was less than one year's production now. "Prior to the Great War, gold discoveries were being made at regular intervals, starting with the California gold discovery in 1894. Each major discovery was followed by a rise ln commodity prices, or in other words, a lowering of the price of gold. A period of business adjustment or depression would come •long, and this would be followed immediately by more gold discoveries or by metallurgical advances making a greater supply of gold. WAR CONDITIONS "When the Greet Wir broke out, prices dropped, and 1918 was i year of high production. However, me financial advisors of the Important nations found a new means of expanding purchasing power; that ls, they began to use the credit of the Individuals. War loans were floated, and these were used to extend buying power. Costs went up. Gold was cheap. It took only a little wheat or a few pounds of copper to buy T. H. Waters & Co.

"At tht dost of tht wtr there wis ■ temporary business recession. However, other means of extending credit were developed, ind prices went up for ■ few more years. Times were hard for the gold miner. United States production dropped from 115,000 ln 1915 to half that amount Big mines like the Dome of South Porcupine were forced to shut down. The Band mines could not meet the demands of labor with the low price for gold, and they had a revolution on their hands. Following this, gambling tn foreign exchange became a pastime. UP IN 1929 "By 19-9 credit was expended to the breaking point md suddenly the price of gold went up. It took lots of wheit to buy in ounce ot gold. Gold mining began to pick up. However, even that did not supply the requirements. The international standard which had been adopted by the leading countries, led by England In 1818, was followed by the other countries, until, when the U. S. adopted the standard in 1900, only China of the great countries ot the world did not adopt this standard, "By 1931 the demand for (old reached the point where Great Britain was forced to expand her money beyond her gold reserves. The U. S. dollar was devalued in 1934 to 59 per cent of ther former value ln terms of gold. Canada followed closely on the track of the U. S. All this demand for gold caused a great boom in gold mining. New mines were brought in throughout the world and marginal producers were revived. Many people became wealthy, either by mining or by stock promotions of various sorts. Charles Bankcs got the brilliant idea ot packing supplies by airplane into Central New Guinea, and gold mining companies in Eastern Canada began to hire landscape architects and to build civic centres. 8HEEP CREEK REVIVED "The Sheep Creek mines were revived with this revival of the Industry. Heno had started ln 1929, but was having a tough time. In 1934 Kootenay Belle started production, and Sheep Creek followed in 1935. These companies however, were organized and. financed in 1933, or when the boom was expanding. "At present there ls a camp of 1300 people at Sheep Creek. There are 450 people on the voters' list 500 men are employed. There Is a three-room school with 110 pupils. PRODUCTION $2,563,004 IN 1938 "Production for 1939 follows: Sheep Creek Gold Mines, 81,010,060; Kootenay Belle, $877,000; Gold Belt, $802,085; Reno, $274,309; total, $2,- 563,004. The total for Canada was $181,274,189 or about one-eighth of the world's production. "In 1938 these mines of Sheep Creek paid a total of $132,588.06 In direct taxes to the Province of British Columbia. At the present rate of taxation the Sheep Creek Gold Mines will pay $180,000 in direct taxes to the Province and Dominion for 1939-40. "Now what is the future of Sheep Creek? Gold mining ln British Columbia is not on as permanent a basis aa it ls in Ontario. This ls due to geological conditions. B. C. Is a newer country. The mountain building forces did their work opening up channels for mineralizing solution; however, these same forces broke up the interior of the earth's crust and these found various localized places for deposition of minerals. It is frequently said that the deposits don't go down. This ls hardly true. The broken nature of our mountain country is such that outcrops of surface ore-bodies were easily found. Those deeper down are pretty well hidden. However, though, as science ot geology develops, more and more will be found. For example, the moit recent vein found in the Sheep Creek property disappears upward at about 1500 feet below the surface. Our ore reserves are as large ai they ever were, and we hope to find gold for some time to come. WHAT IS FUTURE OF QOLD 'More important! What ls the future of gold?

"In Spoktnt it tht Northweit Mining Association headquarters they are much worried about the future of gold unless it is again put into circulation as money, and the American Mining Congress ls lobby, ing at Washington with this in view. The Engineering and Mining Jour, nal in Its annual review number states: "Uncertainty surrounds the question of the future value ot precious metals and its use as money. The rapid growth of America's hosrd gives cause for concern.' .

Is at present It had most of the gold, and u ihe had acquired control of the seas, lt waa the safest place. "From the beginning of history wealth wai valued ln gold, and usually had gold backing—that is, savings. Mirabeau at the beginning of the French revolution put that country on t lind money basis. He claimed that land wu tht most secure of all possessions. The first issue of 400,000,000 francs bore 5 per cent interest lor a yeir, then 3 per cent then none. More paper was issued. However, depreciation was so rapid that within seven years the money passed out even against penaltiea for diaoountlng, fint lix years imprisonment, then 20, then the guillotine. "In our time we have seen the German mark depreciated to pay German Internal debt until you had to be a billionaire to purchase a cigarette-all this in five years. DEBTS ARE WEAKNESSES "Internal debts seem to be the weakness of democracies. As Calvin Coolidge said, "Debts can't be cancelled. Someone muit pay.' There ire only two wiya of paying. One is with materials, and the other ia by inflation. Citizens of democracies don't vote for higher taxes. Hence, as internal debts increase, the currency is inflated. The franc ls only one-tenth of its value back in 1918. The U. S. dollar ls 89 per cent of its value. The Canadian dollar is 10 per cent less. The pound sterling is still lest, etc. "The democracies, while off the old international standard, use gold and only gold as a standard of value. They have 38 per cent of the trading population of the world, and 91 per cent ot the monetary gold. "The totalitarian Statei hive 82 per cent of the trading population and 2 per cent of the gold. These states are trading on a barter basis, and hence gold la not necessary. However, these states tre the ones thst are not satisfied, their standard of civilization is lower, snd living conditions are not to our liking. STOOD TEST OF TIME "Gold haa stood the test of time. It ls mentioned ln the Old Testament before woman. Genesis 2:11 save: 'And a river went out of Eden, which encompasseth the land of Havelah, where there is gold*. It ls treated in the tables of other peoples.—'Jaion In search of the Golden Fleece,' etc. It wai considered valuable enough for the Egyptian rulers and the Inca chiefs to take with them on their departure to the unknown."
