crowning glory. He feared a-bald-dome would cut hio earning power.
Long hair, Theb's lawyer.asserted, "Is accepted In muslnal clr-.les

KIMBERLEY, B.C.,. May ,19-City
(jouncll has approved^ estimates and
set a tax rate of; 60 mills for 1950,
which Will bring an increase of
approximately 20 per cent In revenue.
In a statement, the council laid
the new rate resulted from the 1049
deficit of $57,000; the imperative
need for blacktopped roads; increased school costs; increased costs and
the cost of operating the CIVic Centre.' ;.,.:;'-';"'..
The statement, ta part, continues:
The |57,000 deficit in 1949'was
reduced first by previous surpluses
. of $5356 and second by a gift of
$28,000, less a contra account for
. $2500i from the company towards
the cost of flood prevention In
Mark Creek, to $26,326., The greater
proportion of this was used in
sewer extensions, done in.excess ofj
money raised by bylaws in order
to complete air sewer work on the
main roads which are to be black-
topped by the government and the
city in. 1950,. A smaller part of it
was,used in laying new and larger
water mains where needed for the
same, purpose. .   '',    .
No one will; question that vthe
crying need In Kimberley Is;, permanent paving and the elimination
of dust Sewers and water mains

done this year on the arterial highway, established by the council's
action, by the provincial government, and Rotary Drive and' Wal-

budget to blacktop the main roads
in town ta order to take advantage
of the fact that a paving contractor
is in the vicinity, which will not
be the case next year, ....
School costs are up $6000 for 1950.
The arbitration board appointed at
the recjuest of the council decided
that the school budget insofar as
ordinary expenses was concerned,
was not excessive, and the city was
able to pay. At a later meeting with
the council the School Board'agreed
to drop the one mill levy for building1 up a fund for new schools,-thus
reducing the school budget-by $3000,
the final school budget being $89,-
000 as the city's share.
increased posts of material and
increased freight rates have an appreciable effect on the budget, particularly when large supplies' for
extension of utilities have to be
purchased, ,'.-='-'"

Commons Adopts
Amendment to
Income Tax Act
OTTAWA, May IB (CP) - The
Commons Thursday' adopted an
amendment to the Income Tax Act
which' provides that charitable
foundations must spend 50 per cent
of their current income oh "genuinely charitable purposes" to keep
that tacoihe -tax-free.      " "*
The change was part of a 48
clause bill clarifying the new In
come Tax Act adopted in 1948.
Finance Minister Abbott said the
amendment which becomes effective June 1, does not apply to-"really bona-flde genuine" charitable
foundations. It was aimed at plugging a "loophole" by which' money
could be accumulated in a foundation, not actually paid over to charities and later, when the foundation was,wound up, the money
transferred back to the owners or
proprietors,   .    - \
■"Without going into detail," he
said; "one particular case was
drawn to our attention which made
me feel that an amendment tp the
■Act was"spalled for." *''. j -%?■■''■
' Donald-. Fleming -! (PC—Toronto

Electricity consumption by the city
last month ot 398,600 kilowatt hours
was nearly 60 per cent higher than
the 269,760 kw.h. for the same month

shutdowns.
. During the month net gain of 10
services was reported by City Electrician G. W. Btirch, to bring the
year's gain So far to 25. Preparations are under w,ay for the new

Club Hears Talk
On Preparation,
Care of Pansies
Nelson Garden Club heard ^n
Interesting talk oh the preparations
and,cere ot pansies jit their meeting
in the W. Is Rooms Friday night
By-A, S.' (Art)' Read, well known
Rosemont gardener.,
Mr, Read who specializes in pansies and polyanthus, told the club
that there were seVeral varieties of
pansies, Which were a species of the
viola plant, To illustrate his talk
Mr. Read displayed varieties bf the
flower including the Maple Leaf
Giant, Master Piece Giant and the
Apricot Glow and the Pauline
Johnson plants which were violas,
Preparation of the soil for the
pansies was the most Important if
the - gardener wanted choice pansies, he. pointed out,, The soil must
be enriched by manure or fertilizer
and kept well watered. ''
Some flowers could grow in any
type of soil, Mr. Read said, hut not
so the pansy. The Violas grey/ in
nearly any type of earth, but did
not become as large or have1 the
variety of color of the pansies.
The pansy should be planted
from four to five inches apart and
the rows should be. spaced bout 16,
inches apart.
In the event -that manure was
not obtainable, commercial peal
moss mixed, with soli could take
its place, he said, but no chemical
fertilizer could'take the place of
.manure. ■ ■'..■...
SUMMER-LONG BLOOMING .
The Pauline Johnson viola species displayed was a rather short
bUshy plant which could he trim-
ed following the blooming and split
into several plants, On the other
hand; the Apricot Glow viola could
not be split, but other plants could
be started from, shoots cut from
the.stem. ,,   ,
The smiling flowers could be
kept abloom through the entire
-Summer and until the snow flew,
he said. If the old flowers were
plucked  before they turned  to
seed. This also tended .to make
the flowers grow larger. Tho viola
also bloomed continuously.
If fertilizer 'was placed, around
the plant it should be placed about
an inch from the plant so as hot to
burn the plant or roots, he stressed,
The plants deteriorated in time,
Mr. Read said 'and sometimes were
severely hit by . the , cold Winter.
Pansies could also be kept in pots
indoors, all Winter but would be
come scraesly due to lack of light
and sun.
Frederick Blakemen, President of
the Garden Club, thanked Mr. Road
for bis interesting talk. Refresh;
ments were served.        " '

Chimney Should be 2 Inches
From Framework in House
The performance of your heating
unit will be governed largely by
the adequacy of the chimney to provide draft and to carry off smoke
and gases.
Of basic importance is the size
of the flue—the open shaft Inside
the chimney. The flue must be of
sufficient size to meet the draft requirements of your furnace. Advice
of your 'heating contractor Is therefore necessary in determining its
dimensions Flues should never be
less than eight and a half Inches
square or seven inches in diameter.
•Flues lined with glazed clay tile
permit, smoke to escape . easily. If
the.Tining is omitted and the- sides
of the flue are rough, the flow of
gjs and :smoke from; the .furnace
will be impeded. This Could hamper
the efficiency of the. heating unit,
Unlined chimneys should be built
with brick or solid masonry eight
inches, In thickness. Cement and
lime mortar are used With joints
made as smooth as possible. Four
inches of masonry Is sufficient for
lined flues. Care must be. taken to
break all horizontal joints, between

This attractive two-bedroom dwelling has two possible street

A clean-out- door, at least three
feet below-the smoke inlet at the
bottom of the flue, is required to
facilitate removal of soot.
Fire prevention demands that no

The chimney must extend at least

Most. economical, in space,. cost

a foot, deep, The size must be figured carefully, so that a frame- set
in this excavation can be covered
by window or hot-bed sash. As in
the case of other hot-beds, a glass

.Bui(d a frame to fit in the excavation. The sides must slant sharply from a point above the wind&w,
almost to the ground. Fit the sash
on this frame, using hinges at the
top so the sash' may easily be raised
for ventilation. Earth may be banked around the frame to keep out
the cold; and the Sides should be as
tight as possible to keep out the
wind. '«
' The frame may have to be caulked, where It joins the foundation to
prevent drafts, otherwise it is built
like the garden-type, vising a standard or odd size sash as you choose,

OIL HEATING
Five Pertinent Questions and Answers
1—Con a Fairbanks-Morse Automatic
Oil Burner be installed in my present
furnace?;
Yes. Fairbanks-Morse Oil Burners-are
designed to provide a flame that is
adaptable to practically any type of furnace now In use. Tail's means that it is not
necessary fo buy a new boiler or alter
your present system in any way. When
our Service men Install the burner, your ■
complete heating system ,is made ready ,
for burning oil. When they have finished,
all you have to do is to turn on the switch.
2—How long does it take to change from
coal to oil?      -
Your furnace can be changed from coal
burning to an oil fire in about five hours.
3—What would the installation  cost?
We cannot answer this question without
information as to the size of your house
and type of furnace. It is preferable for
our engineer to inspect your present heat
ing system before quoting a price. This
inspection, of course,, entails no obliga- ■
tion on your part.      ■   '
4—How do coal and oil fuel compare as
to cost?
The actual cost of fuels is comparable,
but the principal saving is in the time
and attention required for coal-firing as
compared with. oil,, which is thermostati- .
cally controlled. ,  ,
5—Does the Fairbanks-Morse Burner
automatically keep the house at a set
temperature?
Yes. The thermostat mounted on the wall
of your living room controls the operation
of the burner, automatically regulating
the heat and keeping the house at an
even temperature. With a touch of the
finger you can set the thermostat at any
temperature you desire, from 50 to 85
degrees. ...

er be less than a six-Inch vertical
rise for each foot measured horizontally. If the' slope is less, rain
or melting snow-might sweep un-
aooa aoatrt
der the shingles and damage the
wood framing.
Shingles are- available >In 16, 18
and 24-inch lengths. The first two
sizes should be laid With a maximum exposure of five and a half
Inches. The 24-inch shingles, which
are-thicker, may have' an exposure
of seven and a half inches. If the
exposure is any greater the result
will be a thinner and short-lived
roof;
Shingles, should be doubled on
the first course at the eaves and
throughout the job care should be
taken to ensure that nowhere are
joints directly above one. another.
There should be a space of at least
an eighth of an Inch between the
shingles. Use of rustproof nails is
important. These should be limited
to two to a shingle and placed so
that they will be covered by the
next course. ,  .   .  .
Edge-grain shingles are most satisfactory for roof finishing while a
coat of stain will add years to their
serviceability.

Model Home a Dream Come True
It's is modern as. jet propulsion
comfortable us a lazy-boy.
That's- what people-will be saying about Nelson's first model home:
constructed, for Mies R.' Frlsby on
North Shore' above Nelson ferry,
and opening today for public viewing.     ' , •
"Model Home" seems almost 'too
commonplace a name for this attractive cedar-siding bungalow, (t's
more a "Dream Home,".
It's the first that will enhance a
new subdivision called, appropriately, Lakeview Heights.
The arresting view from Its huge
picture windows could scarcely be
better from that famed scenic vantage point,' Pulpit Rock. Yet it's
only a stone-throw from North
Shore highway.
Even a quick glance at its flat,
wide overhang roof and streamlined
lines is enough for a visitor to ask
it a home could be better designed.
But inspection of its eye-appealing
interior Invites the answer: "No."
It's heated by oil regulated with
thermostatic control", and as if
that - weren't enough to keep the
temperature, right Winter and Sum
mer, it's fully insulated with fibre
glass. . *
The living-room, Its color scheme
so gay as to; be bright, yet so well
blended that it falls softly on the
eye, looks somewhat like a life-size
magazine ad of a living-room.
The celling is a pale green and
the deeper green walls are met at
the floor by a grey compressed wool
carpet Birch panelling has gone
into the built-in bookcase and desk-
cellerette at one end, and Into the
opposite wall.
An imported tile fireplace centre!
this wall,,'and above, a new-typi
mirror bordered on either side bj
peach-colored mirrors.
The suite, Including a love-seat
composed of two end sections, is in
plush red contrasting Ideally with
a pair of walnut step tables of semi-
modern design mounted with ultra-
smart lamps. There's an automatic,
three-speed radio-gramophone, too.
From a spacious hall With two
large linen cupboards are two bedrooms and a bathroom.
In its peach and green setting, the
six-piece .suite and "Mr, and Mrs."
dresser of the main bedroom Is finished in a natural almone which
Is a light, warm-hued mahogany.
The flooring Is B.C. fir.
The green quilted spread and
matching comforter go hand-in-
hand in color with the soft pastel
green of the deeply woven chenille
rugs and the leaf-patterned drapes.
And lor its slumberer, the room
Is complete with a radio with the
habits of an alarm-clock. It runs on
the same principles. '
The^ three-piece bathroom set, including a pembroke-style bath, reflects tones of blue from the walls
and celling and from the blue rubber sheet tiling floor. The. whole
room is lit by the flick of a silent
switch—so no incomer in the wee
hours will disturb the entire house,
The second bedroom competes
with the first in Style and Mmfort.
Its'rich grey-walnut suite, brought
into use in Los-Angeles in February
and used for the first time on Canadian suites, is impervious to perfumes and similar, liquids.

Why Not on Honest
Peace Movement?,
We have reached a point, Robert V.
i Brown, writing in Editor and Publisher, observed, where we associate
.all peace movements with Communist
propaganda. Why shouldn't we have
a real peace movement of our own in
this country, and. among other peace-
loving nations?
Casey Jones, new Editor of the Syracuse Herald-Journal, came up with
the suggestion in a front page editorial, .
"Soviet policy today is to convince
the world that its Government and
people stand for world peace and that
'imperialistic America' is preparing for
war," the editorial stated. "Even the
most superficial student of Soviet-
American -relations knows that the
Russian Government has refused ev- "
ery peaceful overture since 1945.
'■". "Russia does not want peace; It
wants chabs, disorder, starvation and
economic ruin in every democratic
country in the hope that its Communist
organizers can eventually take over,
"Every Government in the world
knows that the Western Governments
stand for peace. But do the people of
those countries know our peaceful aims
as well as their Governments?".
"There is not enough emphasis ih
current thinking on the necessity of -=
peace if civilization is to survive. No
nation can live through another war.
"Every big peace meeting in recent
months in this country has been under
Communist sponsorship, or has been
promulgated by fellow travellers. "
, "We have, reached a point where,
somehow, we associate peace movements with Communist; propaganda."
"This should not be," Mr. Jones
wrote.
"Why should there not be a great •
paace movement in this, 'country;'
backed by the Government, supported
by industry, by labor, by the rank and
file of our people? ,This movement
could be extended to the entire North
American continent.
"And why should we not inaugurate
gre%t meetings throughout the world— ,
in Paris, Stockholm, in Helsinki, in
Rome, in Bonn, in Cairo, in Israel, iri
Athens, in Delhi, in Batavia, in Seoul,
and in Tokyo, in which our aims for a
peaceful world could be set forth by
responsible leaders?
"Our hopes and prayers for peace'
could be set before the world with
dramatic force and sincerity.
"Then, if any aggressor wanted war,
it would stand before the world in a
damning light.".
There you have it.
An idea so simple and natural that
it has never occurred to Americans or
Canadians before. Because they abhor
Communism, they have shunned so-
called peace rallies here, and possibly
have given to the world a picture of
people who don't want peace.
Wouldn't our own peace rallietv-
The I.O.D.E.—grown to- womanhood In
three wars—now is striding confidently into
Its third peace.
Barely four years have'passed alnce'the '
end of the last war, and yet the 32,000 members of the Order already have turned $1,-
000,000 into postwar services. European relief
and monthly food parcels to British-families
are only a part of this gigantic postwar plan,
which of itself is snjall when compared -with
the Order's activities between 1030. and 194S.
Clothing and bedding for civilians, field
comforts and service libraries—contributions
to the tune of $6,000;000—these are the factsi'of
the Order's third war effort, a natural venture
for the nationwide organization which' owes
its beginning to the foresight 50 years ago of.
a Montreal woman, Mrs: Clark Murray. At
that time the South African War was in progress, and Mrs. Murray saw the need pf an
organization dedicated to strengthening the
bonds bf Empire. Her vision led to the establishment of the I.O.D fe The Order's first' war
service was to'appoint a committee to report
on the best' means of caring for the newly->
made graves , of Canadian soldiers in South
Africa. Records are not clear of the methods
of raising funds at that time, but it is known,
that the young organization donated $2000; as
well as- gifts of balaclava helmets, shirts and
books to one of the. contingents of Canadian '
soldiers headed for South Africa. A monument, designed and carved in Canada, was
planned in memory of the 90 Canadian soldiers
whose graves could not be found. But the
First World War intervened and the 30-foot
memorial at Bloemfontein was not unveiled
until 1024,   ■ .
The,outbreak of the First World War saw
members of the Order knitting socks and
making hospital bandages and other supplies
for the Canadian Red Cross. They also found
time to raise enough money for 10 ambulances, three motor-.trucks, 18 machine-guns
arid 22.field-kitchens—an effort only out-distanced by their work in the Second World
War. ■•    ,  <
Shortly after the outbreak of the last conflict the' Federal Government asked the I.O.
D.E. to he.lp supply reading material to the
troops. Out of .this request was'bbrn the 1,0.
D.E. Service Libraries, one of the most amazing of the Order's wartime projects. Many of
the members emptied their own library shelves
to help with the collection, which brought
1,404,831 books and 13,364,226 magazines. Ships
and military camps were among the centres
receiving the books. The first library of 1000
books was placed at Barriefield Camp in
Kingston, Ont. It was manned by members of
the Kingston Chapters.
The Order learned a lot about readers'
preference in .these years. It found the Navy
preferred longer books and the Air Force read
more for relaxation. The men at sea liked
Western novels. Tn,e men from the Prairies
preferred sea .stories.
But there was more to the Order's war
"story" than libraries.      '  '
British war guests stranded in Canada
were provided with" allowances., "'•
' A^otal of 350 ships in the Canadian Navy
was= sponsored—provided with such domestic
comforts as washing machines,' toasters, per-  -
colators, musical"instruments and'games.   =   :
Eighty-seven .wedding'' outfits were donated to the Women's Service Headquarters.
The Order even entered the armament
field. In 1940 a campaign was launched for
money to buy a plane. Inside of a month 1100,-
000 was raised for a Bolingbroke bomber,
which was turned over to the Canadian Gov- .
ernment.
Later, $50,000 was spent on a fighter plane-
for Australia.  ' '
And in the I.O.D E. headquarters at Toronto there hangs an engraved plaque' from
the British  Ministry for Air. thanking the'
Order for the $300,000 sent to help'with. the
defence of Britain.

NOT. A RACE APART
'..,-. Segregation of-Indians.must go, declares
the Vancouver News-Herald. "There is only
one Way now, of, making Indians citizens like
other citizens. All Indian children.may go td
public schools like other children. Only in this
way can they become assimilated. They need
the competition to be.found.in public schools.
They rieed to know they are not children set
apart, but children of British Columbia, entitled to the educational, social and health benefits of; every other British Columbia child,
irrespective of race, color Or religion."   =

25 Years Ago Gary Cooper
Loped Into Film Business
By   BOB  TH0MA3'   j
HOLLYWOOD, May 10 (AP) -
This may come as a shock: to you,
but it was just 25 years ago that
Gary Cooper saunted onto the
screen.. , ,...-,
Surprised? So was.Coop. Or at
least . he feigned amazement. He
finally admitted that next month
will .marls; 25 years in Hollywood
for, him. - * '
"But. of course 1 was young," he
smirked • ^'Couldn't have been over
this high." He held his hand three
feet pff'the floor,' -
j Fresh out of Grlnnel College, the
loping Mbntanan migrated to HoK
lywood in 1925.- But riot to crash the
movies,   . ,
''I Was interested in the advertisings business," he recalled. "But
to pick up some spare money I
did some extra work,, riding and
stunting in some pictures,' I had
run. Into some Montana cowboy
friends qf mine who were doing the
same .thing. -      ■
"Well,: I got into, a Tom Mix picture, at Fox and learned he was
getting $15,000 a week, That/started
me' to thinking. I had hoped to
achieve J10,000 '.a year in the advertising business, but it looked
pretty small after .that.,.
SELF-EXPRESSION
"So you see I didn't get in the
movies from any Inward desire to
express myself.!' .
There Is. never -any pretense
about Cooper, especially concerning actirig. Said he: "I didn't know
anything' about acting. I guess = I
just 'picked up things here and
there from the directors arid actors
I'worked with'." A stickler for re-
alism.'lfe just likes.to act naturally.
SAYS VALUE
OF OPPORTUNITY
MUST BE LEARNED
PRINCE RUPERT, B. C, May, 19
(CP)-r-The goals of enterpriise arid
initiative must be returned to people's mirids, Finance Minister Herbert Anscomb told a Rotary luncheon here Thursday.   ; .
Jf people want security—arid, are
willing, to pay for it—he said, he
would follow their wishes but it
cotild not be forgotten that the $22,-
500,000 Social. Security Bill facing
the province this year would produce nothing for the province either directly Or indirectly.
Mr. Anscomb said he was not
against social security but that people's minds had. been educated to
cultivate security. Its. high ,qost,„he
said, would'continue until the pop-
illation learned again the value of
opportunity, i '.'•'•■■    *■-■_'
Iri an address that swept over numerous subjects, the co-leader of
the Provincial Coalition Government described the hospital, pjan
as a tremendous problem that had
drawn its share of the mistakes met
in any such undertaking.
He called on doctors ■ to assist
In stashing patient stays In hot-
'  pitals—two  days  longer  In  this
provilice than elsewhere on the
average—to Help meet the $7,000 -
• 000 deficit this year.
. :The Minister said he was confident a master plan of highways, to
cost about $88,000,000 in the next
seven or eight years, would be
supported on completion by the
gasoline; tax alone.-   .

More' clergymen are needed to fill

States;'delegates to the annual British-= Columbia Conference; of the

said a back-to-the-ohurch movement is growing in both countries.
An average' of 25,000. are received
annually ,lnto the United Church
with congregations stepping up in
attendance.
" "But we could use at least 400
more clergy'men across Canada,", he
said. Most, superannuated 'clergymen '.are working as assistants to
Cope* with the situation. He believes
it will he. 10 years before the gap
is closed.
"■ Dr. Frank Dyer, ecumenical Bishop of Los Angeles, reported revived
interest in Protestant Church attendance in the United States. He
said'a movement is on, foot to consolidate Protestant churches along

Railways Ponder
Plans To Save
Flood Expenses
VANCOUVER, May 19 (CP) - A
plan to save the railways rriilllon3
of dollars in British Columbia during years of floods and . heavy
snows is under consideration.   .
The Fraser Canyon Is the trouble
spot for Canadian National Railways, the tracks winding along'the
turbulent Fraser River. On the opposite side is. the main line of the
Canadian Pacific Railway.
. President Donald Gordon of the
C.-N.R., despite his'.'few months in
office, has studied the situation. He
summed it up: •—..•'
"The trouble is the whole darned
mountain comes down on top of us
every high water."
The job would cost from $150,-
000,000 to $175,000,000 and would
take from .20 t6 25 years to complete.. It would mean the reconstruction of 42 miles of mainline
through, the toughest 'part of the
canyon. •. ' ■'■•'■
Thi plan,, it is understood, calls
for a series of long tunnels over
which snow, and flood waters arid
rock slides, would roar into the
Fraser;' :''''■
C,P;R. engineers, too, have had
their troubles and for some time
have. considered a major diversion
that would eliminate heavy grades
in the high ■Rockies. The cost, it
has been,estimated, would be from
$30,000,000. to $40,000,000.
Freight traffic is a factor, the engineers say, in any plans for the
future. Both C.N.R. and C.P.R, projects will depend on how. profitable freight traffic is in years to
come.- ..'•.'-'

Everybody Works in Qigontic Struggle
Against Rampaging Winnipeg Floods
-^ ■
Capitol Building In Winnipeg IS
still dry In spite of the appearance of being surrounded by water here. The back-breaking Job
of piling sandbagB still goes on,
with little rest In sight for the
weary workers.
''.'   Farmers are shown here bringing In supplies
from their flooded barns Into the,besieged city.

Shovel-wleldlng nun Is Sister Goslln, a cook at the St. Boniface
sanitarium,'who Is filling a sandbag held by two refugees from the
Winnipeg floods who fled to the relative safety of the Institution.
They are Mrs. A. Lord and her daughter, Yvette. Every thrust of

A Lonely, Dangerous Job
WINNIPEG, May 19 (CP)—Dyke
patrolling is no job for the squeamish;': ''■
It is a lonely, dangerous and
highly responsible task, this job oi
patrolling the miles of sandbag
dykes holding back the rampaging
Red River from, vital power installations and other sectors of Greater
Winnipeg,
Some 4006 soldiers at the flood
front, who have taken over a large
share of the patrolling the dykes
at night, are finding that their wartime after-dark patrol experiences
overseas are standing them in good
stejd.      «■...-.
Soldiers and civilian volunteers
alike walk the dykes hour after
hour for 12 hours at a stretch, hunting for signs of seepage and the
tell-tale bulge that warns of a weak
spot that may. give way causing
untold damage and possible loss of
life. '.'1
They clamber, claw and feel their
way along the ragged sandbagged
parapets, never more than a step
away "from the swirling, muddy
waters. ' ■ }
■ It's not a Job for anyone easily
frightened,   especially   at   night
when a rnls-step could plunge a
man Into the Icy, black water.
Nor Is It a Job for the .habitually
careless, for the safety of Can
ada's fourth largest city lies In
spotting weak spots In the dyke
and getting reinforcements rushed
to the danger point promptly.
It is' here that the soldiers are
finding their Wartime  experience
and rigid service discipline valuable. They learned to disregard dangers, also that Carelessness may cost
untold lives.
The watchers patrol a lonely beat.
They gaze upon a quiet but disturbing scene. On one side are
darkened, empty houses. With thousands of families evacuated, there
is little or no laughter and shouts
of children at play no barking of
dogs and no hum oi traffic.
On the other'side of the dyke Is
the swollen river. The dyke patrol
lers can see boats of all sizes and
descriptions moving evacuees and
carrying food to those still maroon-
.ed.
•The boats travel slowly and stay
well clear of the dykes so that their
wake does not .put an undue strain
op the makeshift bastions. And all
the while the flotsam and Jetsam of
a river in flood drifts by—packing

Canada leads the Western world In
development bt all-weather jet
fighters, Air Marshal W. A. Curtis
said today.
' Canada's Chief of Air Staff said
he was speaking of the new CF-100
jet fighter, "the finest aircraft of its
| type in ;the Western world."
Falling prey to floods Is Winnipeg's principal thoroughfare, Main
Street, beginning at the Norwood Bridge, seen at lower left. Bulges
of the Asslniboine and Red Rivera Joh there, almost half a mile
from the usual Junction point. Fight to keep the vital Norwood
Bridge open has been lost
cases, logs, boards, baby carriages
and sometimes even houses torn
from their foundations .farther up
the river!7 - ' ■  ■
It Is not accident that the army
Is getting'much of the night
watches. Civilian volunteers re-
port.for dyke work after a normal
day's work In their usual occupations. By midnight they must be
sent home to bed In order to carry
on the next day. =
- That's the time when the Army'
takes over In force to carry on tht
task of holding the Red River in
check.

I CRANBROOK, B.C., May 19-
Latsgest project In 1949 for the
Cranbrook Soooptimist Club' was
the Tuberculosis Society Christmas
Seals: campaign in Cranbrook district from which proceeds Ot $1365.41
were sent to provincial headquarters. The club also aided the Girl
Guide Hall campaign and other local projects, it was reported at the
annual meeting, and supported its
Soroptimist Western Canadian
scholarship,       •■-        •=.'='''
The meeting elected Mrs.  Carl
Gill president; Mrs. G. H. C. King,
work, etc, fbr pupils from 11 to 15;
secondary grammar schools or
county high schools from 11 to 18
years in preparation of pupils entering university for degrees In science,
doctors, etc,,/, and technical high
schools fbr, laboratory, Industrial
study, etc.,.for pupils ranging from
il to 18 years. .-   .    '
In the secondary schools the three
A's have replaced the three R's.
The three A's are age, ability and
aptitude. Eleven years' is thought to
be the best age. to; give an intelligent test. If the intelligent test is
high then that child must be edu
cated accordingly.      '.
There is a child .guidance clinic
where any children requiring treatment 'for nervous; fearful or unhealthy complex are referred -to.
They are corrected at an early age.
Something new is the compulsory
religious education, when worship
is led by the headmaster, for 15
minutes each day. It has proven a
success ahd. should, be adopted in
Canada, the speaker suggested. The
idea.is'that it is Just as important
to know how to live as it is tb know
mathematics.
