Of Wheat Market Not Due  To World Surplus  There never has heen a world, surplus of -wheat, according to I>r. W.  W. Swanson, professor of economics  at the "University, of. Saskatchewan,  in ait tnfisrview at Reg^ha/Sastc. He  expressed the opinion that thecol^  lapse of the international wheat market was from other factors, as the  alleged surplus had never existed.  For this reason, the economist expressed the view that those who wailed that dollar wheat would never return here were not taking: into consideration that the price of wheat had  been linked with the prices of other  commodities, some of which had dropped to a greater degree than wheat.

Coupons For Money  Farmers Solve Difficulty When Banks  R.iiuse- To  Mako  L^an  "If the tax. ks won't lend any money  make your own money." farmer co-  operators at Le Roy, Sask., say.  Last summer they had a cheese  factory which had run several years  ago but closed down when the price  of wheat was high and farmers stopped milking cows. They also knew  how to make good cheese.  They wanted to reopen and btiy  milk to make cheese but cheese is  a commodity that is not immediately  ready for sale, It must mature for  several weeks.  They tried to borrow money from  the banks on the security of their  cheese, but banks are not interested  in agricultural produce at present;  So they printed coupons paying 50  cents per 100 pounds of millc with  promise of redemption when the  cheese was sold. As the cheese was  sold these coupons were redeemed  and these farmer-financiers were able  to pay themselves an interim dividend  of 30 cents and a final payment of 17.9  cents per hundred that the farmers  got for their milk. All of the coupons were redeemed within two  weeks of the time the last cheese was  sold.  ���������  Explanations and Comments  Christ the Comforter, verse 1.���������The  disciples Were perplexed and troubled;  their hearts were failing them as they  approached the last crisis in their  Master's life. It was faith in the  Father that kept Christ serene and  peaceful so near His end, and faith in  the Father and���������the Son would uphold  the disciples ih that terrible hour.  "Ret not vour heart be troubled " He  said to them in their last talk together; "believe in God, believe also  in Me."  " 'Twas the Master Himsself who said  it  To the sorrowful little band,  _ Facing an hour of darkness  That they could not understand."  Here lies the secret of an untroubled heart in the. midst of troubled  circumstances���������faith in a living God  and Saviour. Not a nominal faith in  the existence of God, but an active,  overmastering belief in His goodness  and wisdom, and in His overruling all  things for good will keep the heart  from despair in times of storm and  stress.

In this Quarter's lesson  we have heard Him say, "I am the  bread of life," "I am the light of the  world," "I am the door," "I am the  good shepherd," "I am the resurrection and the life"; now we hear Him  add, "I am the way, the truth, and  the life."

And Jean, hated people to be unhappy.    :  So that it was with considerable  satisfaction that she set out across  the park towards Willow Ferry, crossing- tbe river by the footbridge which  spanned it at a point about a quarter  of a mile below the scene of her boating mishap.  Judith, welcomed her w?th unaccustomed warmth, and after lunch completely won her heart by a candour  seemingly akin to Jean's own.  "I've been quite hateful to you  since you came to Staple," she said  frankly. "Just because you were ���������  who you were. I suppose"���������turning  her head a little aside���������"you've heard  ������������������you know that old story ?''  Then, as Jean murmured an affirmative, she went on quickly:  "Well, it was idiotic of me to feel  unfriendly to you because you happened to be Glyn's daughter, and I'm  honestly ashamed of myself.

"It's all so soft, and pretty, and  old," she said. "I feel -as if Staple  must always have been here���������just  where it. is, looking across to the  Moor, and nodding sometimes, as  much as to say, 'I've been here so  long that I know some of your secrets'," she added dreamily. "Those  great tors watch us all the time, just  as they've watched for centuries. They  remind me of the Egyptian Sphinx,  they are so still, ahd silent, and ���������  and eternal-looking."  "You've not been en to Dartmoor  yet, have you?" asked Judith; "We  have a bungalow up there���������-Three Fir  *.._.^G������_^..������ ,     _u k. uwuvu. ._- x_ aa.        ������_._uo^������  come and s^end a few davs there  with us when the weather gets warmer."  "I should love it," cried Jean, her  eyes sparkling. 'Tm aching to go to  the Moor. I want to see it in all  sorts of moods���������when it's raining,  and when the sun's shinging, and when  the wind blows. I'm sure it will be different each time���������rather like a woman."  "I think it's loveliest of all by  moonlight," said Judith, her eyes soft  and shining with recollection. She  loved all the beauty of the world as  much as Jean herself did. "I- remember being on the top of one of  the tors at night. All the surrounding  valleys were hidden in a mist like a  silver sea, and I felt as if I had got  right away from the everyday world,  into a sort of holy of holies that God  must have made for. His spirits. One  almost forgot that one was just an  ordinary, plain-boiled human being  tied up in a parcel of flesh and bone."  "Only people .aren't .realiy., in the  least plain-boiled or ordinary," observed Jean quaintly.  "You aren't, I verily believe." Judith regarded her curiously for a moment. "I think I wish you were," she  said abruptly.  . She was not finding the part assigned to her by her brother any too  easy. It complicates matters, when  you are deliberately planning a semblance of friendship towards someone,  if that someone persists in inspiring  you with little genuine impulses of  liking and friendliness.  Jean herself was delighted with the  result of her visit to Willow Perry.  She was convinced that Judith was  a much nicer woman than she had  imagined, or than anyone else imagined her to be, and when she ^ook hev  departure she carried these watmer  sentiments with her, characteristically reproaching herself not a littie for  her flrst hasty judgment. People improved upon acquaintance enormously, she reflected.  She did not go straight back to  Staple, but took her way towards  Chamwood on the chance of finding  Claire at home, and, Fate, being in  a benevolent mood, she discovered her  in her garden, precariously mounted  upon a ladder and occupied in nailing  back a creeper.  Claire greeted her jojrfully and proceeded to descend.  "I've been lunching at Willow  Ferry," oxplained Jean, "so I thought  I might aa well como on hero ancl  cadge my tea as well!"  "Of course you might, Adrian has  gone into Exeter today, so we shall  bo alone."  Joan waa conscious of an immense  reliof. Tho knowledge that Sir  Adrian was not anywhere on tlie  premises seemed' like the lifting of a  blight.  Claire's blue eyes smiled at hor  understanding^.  "Yes, I know," she nodded, as  though Jean had given voice to her  thought. "It's juat aa it someone  had oponod n window and let tho fresh  air In, isn't it?"

"What have I done to offend?"  queried Jean lightly. Somehow, with  Sir Adrian actually away, it didn't!  seem a matter of much importance  whether he was offended or not. Even  the house had a different "feel" about  it as they entered it.  "It's not.anything, ypii*ye_ done; it's  what you are.

"He sees you constantly."  "Ohf he's used to me. I'm only his  wife, you see. Besides"���������wearily���������  "he knows that he can effectually  prevent me from making a splendid  thing of my life."  The note of bitterness in her voice  wrung Jean's heart.  "I don't know how you hear itl"  she exclaimed.  "One can bear anything���������a day at  a time," answered Claire with an attempt at brightness. "But I never  look forward," she added in a lower  tone.  The words seemed to Jean to contain an epitome of tragedy.

LIMITED  THE CRESTON REVIEW  From     time   immemorial,    or  thereabouts, it has been enstom-  ary to publish the names of those  paying a last  tribute of   respect  with  wreaths, sprays,   etc.-   but  the Nakusp News is breaking new  ground by informing as to gifts  and their givers at weddings ill  that   town.    In   looking   over a  quite     long    list   of    these   re-  1 membrances   at    one   of    these  happy events early this month, it  would appear that the give-some-  , thing-practical   idea prevails as  I we  noted the acknowledgments  !of a cook  book and  rolling pin  | amongst an array that ran quite  |heavy to  cups and  saucers, cake  plates and bon bon dishes.  Grand Forks* is a real town as  compared with Cresto^ and can  the more readily finance such an  undertaking. Without debating  this feature, the Review submits  the 1931 production figures at  Grand Forks as published in the  Gazette.

If Grand  Forks is getting by with that  total of production back of it  there is surely no good reason for  the fear and trembling in  evidence when Creston is rated as  being capable of duplicating  Grand Forks' effort.

FRIDAY, MAR. 11  NOME BREW  Two overcoats were stolen  from St. Saviour's church on  Winnipeg street on Sunday  evening. The coats were hanging in the cloak room and were  pilfered during the sermon���������  Pentieton Herald.  The" taker of those top coats  was no amateur. From early  training, or observation, he knew  when the congregation would be  fast asleep and conducted  operations accordingly.

Aad diverting the argument to provincial affairs most  everyone will agree that one  average business man could conduct British Columbia's business  much more efficiently and at less  than 25 per cent, of the present  overhead.    In fact many people  are quite convinced that it would  be hard to find a less-than-aver-  age-ability business man who  could do worse than the Tolmie  aggregation of misfits and  incompetents.  Even a cursory perusal of  current issues of the weekiy press  convinces that spring has turned  the corner and is headed this  way.

CRESTON  At the presentation of srophies  at the curlers' bridge on Friday  night Col. Mallandaine waxed  enthusiastic in connection with  the advertising Creston had received due to rinks invading  Cranbrook and other towns for  bonspiels and other games. Far  be it from the Review to protest  against any form of legitimate  publicity, but there is another  side to this story. At the time  the rinks were away making a  name for the club at the Selkirk  bonspiel, Creston had a call from  a Mr. Bremner of Calgary, interested in building a new hotel, and  when some of the businessmen he  interviewed assured him that this  would be a good spot for a hotel  as it would attract people from  the prairies who wanted to get  into a milder climate for winter,  Mr. Bremner naively enquired if  Creston curlers played on  artificial ice, or the product of  sub-zero .temperatures.

At all  events, it is to be hoped so      But the present, and pleasant, fact is that this J ^^und^Uon any country can have.  winter of our discontent, disappointment and trial is almost over.      For so  much we can offer thanks.  With the ending of this winter, there is also a 'growing belief, becoming  more and more general, that the worst of the so-called business depression  likewise comes to an end; that from this time onward there will be a steady  improvement, albeit slow and gradual. It is not to be expected,-���������nor indeed  would it be desirable,���������that there will toe anything spectacular in this betterment, as there was at the beginning of the depression in the great stock  market crash. The upward movement should be of a permanent character,  and to be permanent it -must be slow and gradual, with nothing of the  mushroom variety about it.  However, during this winter people have been thinking as they perhaps  never thought before, thinking seriously, thinking constructively. So many  of the false props erected in the days when everything was booming  collapsed, so many false gods were overthrown, so many unsound theories  were exploded, so many bubbles burst, that people generally, including  statesmen and politicians, great financiers and business executives, as well  as the humble laborer and wage earner, have been forced back to acceptance of and reliance upon the tried, and true in economics and. the basic  foundations of life. This, in itself, is a great gain and full of promise for  the years that lie ahead.  One writer in a magazine devoted to business raises the interesting  question as to the extent to which the ill-considered choice of a word has  played, a major part in producing tlie psychological atmosphere of our far  from satisfactory business conditions. He says that if the person or persons  who first gave currency to the phrase "business depression" had made the  happier and more accurate choice of "business recession," it is conceivable  that the general attitude toward our recent past, our still troubling present,  and our probable future for some time, might have been distinctly different.  While the two phrases might have the same literal meaning, each indicating  that business had gone more or less away from a previous point of comfort  and satisfaction, might we not bave viewed the movement somewhat more  cheerfully, more hopefully, had we thought of it as baving merely "moved"  than as having actually ���������"dropped?" It is clear that "recession" is a much  less fearsome word than "depression."   Casually we picture things as coming  back much more easily than as coming up, although the same forces may  affect and govern either movement.      From now on it would do no harm,  and might do some good, in the effect upon ourselves, to think and measure  business as having merely receded for the time being rather than as being  in a hopelessly depressed state.  Apart from this, however, with the coming of Spring in each and every  year all nature rejoices and takes on new life.   The grass, the trees respond;  all animal life feels invigorated; human beings are inspired with new hopes  and animated  with renewed  energy.    The dark days  and long nights of  winter give place to the longer days of bright sunshine and shorter hours of  night.    Everybody feels a desire to busy themselves about something useful  and productive.   Nature itself on every hand is aroused from its long sleep,  anxious once again to produce and be fruitful.  We are now entering upon that time of activity and productiveness. It  is ours to make the most of it, not in any foolish spirit of undue optimism,  not expecting to work wonders, but with a cheerful hope and expectation  that, with the winter of our previous discontent and hardship past, we are  again placing our feet on the highroad to better times and in the direction  o_ finer and more permanent and beneficial accomplishment.   .  It is now up to us as individuals to throw off the depression which has  upset and unnerved up, which actually made cowards of some of us, and,  realizing that it was rather a recession -of former good times which took  place, set ourselves  energetically  and hopefully  to  the  task,  not only of  checking   that   recession,   but  of   bringing   ourselves,   our   businesses,   our  country, back to the more satisfactory plane upon which it has been our  happy lot in former years to move and live.  j is really the centre of gravity of the  j whole Dominion, have collectively impressed 'On mea profound conviction  that the Dominion rests on tlie sound-  namely, a people whose character,  whose heart, and whose outlook are  fundamentallly sound."

Acids In Stomach  Cause lndig  estion  Create Sourness,"Gas and Pain.  How To Treat.  Medical authorities state that nearly  nHne-tenths of the cases of stomach  trouble, indigestion, sourness, burning-,  pas. bloating-, nausea, etc., are due to  an excess of hydrochloric acid in the  stomach. The delicate stomach lining  Is- irritated, dig-estion is delayed and  food sours, causing: the disagreeable  symptoms which every Btomach sufferer  knows so weii.  Artificial dlg-estants are not needed  in such cases and may do real harm.  Try laying aside all digestive aids and  instead get from any druggist some  Bisurated Magnesia and take a teaspoonful of powder or four tablets In  water right after eating. This sweetens the stomach, prevents the formation of excess acid and there Is no sourness, gas or pain. Bisurated Magnesia  (In powder or tablet form���������never liquid  or milk) is harmless to the stomach.  Inexpensive to take and is the most  efficient form of magnesia for stomach  purposes, It Is used by thousands of  people who enjoy their meals with no  more fear of indigestion.

Restrictions against the purchase  of foreign exchange were imposed to  protect the pound when Britain suspended ihe gold standard last year.  Asked .whether restrictions against  foreign. loans would be lifted, the  Chancellor indicated it would be "unwise for us to lend promiscuously  overseas."  A cheer arose in Commons when  Mr. Chamberlain confirmed that  $150,000,000" of $200,000,000 borrowed  in the "United States last summer to  bolster the pounds would be repaid.  The Chancellor added that a credit  front French bankers of ������20,000,000  ($69,600,000) for the same purpose  had-been reduced to ������7,000,000 ($24,-  360,000). .  Mr. Chamberlain recalled that an  additional ������20,000,000 of French advances last August were represented  by treasury bonds to that amount in  the hands of the French holders.  "We have no power to require them  to accept payment before August,"  he said, adding that the original ������80,-  000,000 ($270,400,000) obtained from  loans remains intact and is available  for making, repayments.  The Chancellor said he desired to  remove apprehension that repayment  of the credits' abroad involved a loss  to British taxpayers.  ���������'The necessity of acquiring foreign  currencies with sterling at its present  level involves an apparent loss_ which  will be borne by the exchequer on  capital account," he asserted. "This  loss is at present offset by the enhanced value of our stocks of gold.  Accordingly no burden is being placed  on the current revenue, of the  budget."
