BLACKLIST TO BE Severe Penalties for Violation of Provisions of Its New Liquor Control Law FORECAST OF Government Stores to Handle Only Wines and Spirits ~ Will Permit Sale of Beer in Hotels judge of distance than tbe vaudeville joker tries to make out—it is about 96J per cen) of the original. Besides the alleged near beer, any and all kinds of bard liquor are purveyed surreptionsly over these bars; in fact the conditions, unlicensed by tbe government, under which they run, are such that they soon degenerate and many beoome mere dives. ln tbe government's proposal, as so far discussed, tbe intention is to abolish the near beer establishments. The government will simply decline to sell to any except to licensed hotels. In theory, too, if there was real beer to be obtained in hotel dining roo'ns the public would not readily patronize the near, beer of tbe jitney establishments. WINS INAPPEALS E. & N. Ry. Has Given Notice That the Cassidy Coal Cases Will Be Appealed to Privy Council Human Attributes Are Sometimes Found In Life of Plauts Taking as his subject "The Morality of Plants," Prof. John Davidson, of the University of British Columbia, delivered an interesting lecture before the Vancouver Insti tute last week. 0:casiona!ly in human society were found, said Prof. Davidson in tbe course of his address, individuals who assumed a false appear auce of virtue but who were generally referred to as crooks and hypo orites. The practice of hypocrisy was not so prevalent .among the plants, but tbe tendency of tbe pretender towards further degradation until the stage of open crime was reached seemed to be the natural sequence in both cases. Prof. David- eon dealt in detail with the life of the dandelion, the daisy, the fox glove and otber plants. His lecture was greatly appreciated. Hammond's Baby Had a Vicious Kick Quebec, Feb. 2.—The provincial cabinet bas agreed on the main features of tbe liquor control bill wbich will be submitted lo tbe legislature this week, it is understood In regard to the sale of fiquor to tbe consumer at the retail government shops, there will nol be a permit system, such as is being suggested in British Columbia, but tbere will be an effective "blacklist" in every shop. Those who are condemned for drunkenness will be put on tbat lis). Tbose whoee mothers,' fathers or wives complain that their folks are drinking too much will get on that list and the commission will devise such a system of checking up that it will de diffiult to beatsuch a list, especially in small places. Penalties provided are so severe tbat only the most foolhardy will undertake to defeat some clauses of tbe law. Jail sentences without option are provided for violation of some clauses, even for tbe first offense, «nd provision is made in the bill by cleverly drawn clauses to prevent technicalities defeating the purposes of the penalty provisions. During the last year it has been impossible to send botelmen and others to jail in Montreal. It is understood that the bill will provide a measure of protection for brewers in tbis province by the imposition of a tax of 11000 on breweries outside tbe province wbicb ship beer into Quebec. This would affect chiefly brewers in Great Britain. The province of Quebec, of course, can not levy taxes on persons or companies outside its own boundaries, but tbis difficulty is overcome by making the lax apply on tbe wholesale agents in Quebec of sucb outside breweries, FOSTER'S FORECAST Sarnia, Ont., Feb, 1.—John Ham mond's "baby" sure had some kick, or at least it bad before it was "killed" by local police last nigbt. John looked suspicious as be pushed a baby carriage very gingerly up tbe street, so it was decided to investigate. Ten bottles of Canadian Club whisky lay under tbe blanket. Cocks Crow Louder on a™£ Beer and Wine Diet Brussels, Feb. 2.—Cock crowing competitions now replace cock- fighting in coiil mining and industrial regions of Belgium, such as Mons and Liege. Cocks naturally crow about sixty times an bour, and intensive feeding on millet, chopped meat, beer and wine and water increases the volume Of sound and frequency of the calls, Tbey can be trained to crow about a hundred times in thirty minutes, the duration of the contest. Burglar Lost Faith In Communism Chicago, FeB. 3.—Hamoo Chris- tiansou sits disconsolate in the bastile a wiser man. All he did was to try to share some of the property of Willi.)m Bross Lloyd, millionaire socialist under sentence here for activities in connection with the Communist party, which is supposed to believe in sharing everything fifty-fifty. Lloyd captured Christianson in the garage back of his beautiful suburban bome. "Hey, leggo, I'm a Comrade," Christianson protested. "Well, you are going to jail." "You're not a regular Communist, then, or you'd share your property." But Lloyd stopped the argument by introducing bis "fellow Com muoist" to tbe police capta.i, wbo booked the intruder on a burglary charge. The following dispatch from Vancouver is printed in a Winnipeg paper. Even if it gives a fairly ac curate forecast of the government control act of the liquor traffic in this province, it will undoubtedly be materially altered before it passes the bouse: Ex icily how to purvey beer to tbe drinking public is one of tbe serious questions involved in tbe consideraiion of tbe new Liquor act wbicb the British Columbia legislature will discuss in February. A tentative measure has been drafted by the government, and at present includes a proposal to have the sale of beei confined entirely to hotels, wbich will be licensed much as in pre war titles. Roughly speaking,the system now proposed to be followed is tbat wine and spirits shall be sold in sealed packages from government stores. Probably four or five such stores will be established in Vancouver, and a hundred will be scattered through country districts in the province. Then the government will buy tbe entire output of the breweries, excep^ what is manufactured for the export trade. This beer oui put for local consumption will in turn be Bold by the government to licensed hotels. These bouses will be allowed to sell beer wi^h meals and between eating eating hours will be allowed to maintain buffets where one may buy and drink a bottle of beer served at a table. Very strict rules will be made to prevent hotels serving hard drinks. Discovery of whisky on the premises will be followed by cancellation of beer license of the bouse, according to tbe present plans. Announcement of the proposal to sell beer along the lines outlined above caused a loud disturbance among the prohibitionists. Of course tbe dry organization has refused lo countenance in any way the "moderation" act passed on referendum of the electors; but when the beer proposal was first mooted a real up roar came from the dry forces on the ground that this was almost a re version to the old bar system. Tbe moderationist*., on tbe other hand, are in many cases taking the view that free safe of beer under de- cent conditions will result in less consumption of hard liquor,and wi aid in putting the bootlegger out of commission. The present difficulty is accentuated by tbe establishment of scores, and even hundreds, of "jitney" bars, ostensibly selling "near beer," but, really taking the place in every • way of the old sa loons of ten or twenty years ago. In Vancouver, forjffistance, great num bers of these near beer palaces have been opened. They call it near beer, but the brewer ia evidently a better Washington, Feb. 1.—For Febru ary only one severe storm period ia expected; it will dominate tbe weather of tbe week centering on February 6, witb high temperatures preceding and cold wave following.

During tbat time most precipitation is expected in eastern Canada and northeastern America and least on the Pacific slope. Greatest amounts of precipitation are expected during the weeks centering on February 5 and March 6. I again mention the greatest storm periods of tbe year.

Vancouver, Feb. 3. —The Granby Consolidated Mining company today all but entirely won its two ap* peals against a decision of Mr. Justice Gregory, who some montha Ago gave a judgment in favor of tbe E. & N. Railway company, seriously affecting the rights of the Granby and its coal operations at Cassidy, oa Vancouver island. In two judgments delivered this morning Granby wins absolutely in what is known as] the Dunlop case, and tbe propriet y of the provincial legislation in this ra • gard is upheld. Mr. Justice Eberts dissentod from the remainder of the court io thia judgment. In the Ganner case, title to the property ia found to be vested ia tbe Granby company, but tbere is a finding that in case of assessment ot damages against Grauby in respect to tbe coal rights these shall be considered aa to the coal "in nature." The outside price at this rate is stated to be a matter of $150 an acre, ao that in respect to tbe total of 200 acrea the outside amount of the claim that tho Granby may have to settle ie unofficially estimated at $30,000. The original charge against Granby, had the cases gone against tbe company, might have run from a half a million to a million dollars. Mr. Justice McPhillips disaented in the Ganner caae. Notice was immediately given by counsel for the E. & N. tbat application would be made for an appeal to the privy council.

Chase, rich New York manufacturer, and his daughters, Edith and Evelyn, had married their respective betrotheds within twenty-four hours. Miss Edith Chase started the matrimonial race by slipping away, ostensibly for a shopping tour. She married Robert Crofts, Mr. Chase quietly left home to meet Mrs. Elizabeth Obergfell. Tbey were married. On returning home they were greeted by Mr. Chase's otber daughter, Evelyn, who had become tbe bride at Greenwich, Conn., of Don* aid Riddle, eldest son of forme r William Riddle. Export of Copper Is Greatest Since the War New York, Feb. 2.—The Copper Export association has sold between 300,000,000 and 400,000,000 pounds of copper for export, according to reports in tbe financial district. Tbe gteater portion of the metal is said to have been purchased for Breman interests. At the prevailing quotations of 13 cents a pound this transaction, tbe largest export movement since the close of the war, involves an outlay of between $40,000,000 and #50,» 000,000. It is understood tbat a banking syndicate is being formed •o (inane tne sale. Blue Laws for New York New York, Feb. 2.—The advance guard of Zion City's blue law angels is upon us. A few years ago any serious attempts to convert tbis city to tbe stern discipline of Alexander D jwie's followers would bave been met by rude guffaws. But New York remembers tbe too recent jest converted into dismay by congress and Mr. Volstead, so New York isn't laughing any too loudly at tbe Zionists. Helen Bubman and Belle Schell- born, women "missionaries," have established themselves at a vantage point iu the roaring Forties, where tbey intend to creep up on modern vice and smite it out of existence. When they get tbrough tbey hope New York will behave like Zion City. THE SUN, GRAND FORKS. B. C. AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER G. A. EVANS.

Without this knowledge, he is neither prepared to advocate its advantages nor to defend it from depreciatory criticism. Canada has much that her citizens should be proud of, but, unfortunately, this fact is not as well known as it should be by the citizens. Every Canadian should know what Canada's forests, mines, fisheries, wild life and waterways represent to the conntry. Many thousands go abroad every year and a very large.number spend a portion of the winter season in southern climes. Each and every of these travellers should be a missionary for Canada, spreading knowledge of its many advantages. This information s available for the asking, the commission of conservation being authorized by parliament to secure and compile information on Canada's natural resources and to advise the public of the same. The commission has ,available many valuable reports.two of Which, "Waterpowers of British Columbia" and •"Forests of British Columbia," have been but recently issued. They are handsomely illustrated and contain much valuable information on this province which it would be of advantage for the resident of eastern Canada to know. These reports may be had on request. gulls, hawks and vultures.

Three years ago a young man began to collect stamps, but, unlike most collectors, he bought only those Of one kind: thrift stamps. He bought ono every day, and having kept up that practice ever since, he had, on January 1, 11*21, $3-i.5 that he had saved in that way. He says that after the first week or two he wbs surprised to see how easy it was to save twenty-five cents a day, and how fast it counted up. If Trotsky should ever decide to' settle down in a civilized country, he will, at least, have enough of good money to buy himself a meal .ticket. In a speech in New York last week N. W. Kowell referred to the fact that Trotsky while in New York had worked for the Canadian Pacific railway. "True," interrupted Lord Shaughnessy, "and we still owe him $40." The manufacture of sugar and syrup from the sap of the sugar maple is an important farm industry in the eastern provinces of Can ada, and partfcularly in Quebec. Long before the white man settled the country, maple syrup was known to the aborigines, and apart from wild honey was the only intensely sweet product at their command. The methods of producing it were naturally of a very crude description. Modern methods have greatly improved the product and have led to an ever increasing demand. Quebec province is the e'euter of the industry. Ofthe 20,000,000 pounds, or thereabouts, produced annually in Canada, more than two-thirds have to be cred- ited to Quebec. Ontario is officially reported to be responsible for five million pounds, and the Maritime provinces for Half a million pounds only. The other provinces of Canada do not figure in the calculations. These facts are gathered from a timely pamphlet just issued by the department of agriculture at Ottowa, of which J. B. Spencer, director of publicity, is the author. From this well illus-. stratecl and technically detailed puMicat'on it i.s also learned that the production of maple sugar, and its equivalent in syrup, of late years has shown a tendency to decrease. From is.} I to iHiil we are told the average yearly production .was l-t,f>00,000 pounds, from lHlil to 1*71 about 17,500,000 pounds, from 1N71 to i8Bl 10,000,000 pounds, and from 1881 to 18!)1 22,.'.00,000 pounds. The latter was the pinnacle of annual production, for in the next decade the average per year was 21,2000,000 pounds, and in later years the average has been little less than 20,000,000 pounds. It is thought that perhaps with the increase in price that has taken place recently greater production may be looked for. It is estimated that tlie value of the yearly rn.inufaot.iire of sugar and Syrup is .$200,000,000, and that 50,000 people are employed in the industry at the height of the season, which is of very short duration, extending over only live or six weeks at the most. Very stringent laws against the adulteration of the product have been passed, especially in Quebec. For the first nine months of 1919 paper, wood and manufactures of wood were exported from Canada to the United States to the value of $103,941,802. The total value of exports of Canadian goods to that country for the same period amounted to $370,246,970. With our forests supplying "over 44 per cent of the exports.to offset our purchases, itis not hard to realize what position our exchange would be in but for our forests. The depreciated value of our money hurts the patriotic pride as well as the pockets of all Canadians. Those who have occasion to visit the United States realize the additional cost to them in purchasing with Canadian money, but it is hard to make the general public realize that the forests of Canada are carrying a tremendous load as the chief supporffof our credit in the United States. Every effort shonld be made to protect onr forests from fire and to provide efficient foresty management, to enable them to continue in perpetuity the large part they are taking in our foreign trade.

Many species of this mineral are found in Canada, but two only, microcline «and orthoclase, are of commercial importance. Microcline is found in Nipissing district and in Carleton, Frontenac and Renfrew counties, in Ontario, in Ottawa and Saguenay counties, in Quebec, and in northern Quebec. Orthoclase is fairly generally distributed throughout Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia. Feldspar is largely used in the manufacture of pottery, enamel-ware, "enamel brick and tile and in glazing electrical ware. Of these, the most important is the use in pottery and vitrified sanitary ware, when, during firing, it (uses and binds the particles of clay together.**. It also supplies the glaze or coating for the surface. In the manufacture of carborundum and emery wheels, also, the poorer grades are used for the purpose of a binder. The better grade is used for making opalescent glass, while pure while feldspar is utilized 'in the- manufacture of false teeth. Other uses for feldspar are in surfacing concrete for stucco finish, as a constituent of roofing material, and as an ingredient of scour-, ing soaps and other substances. During 1919 the outpnt of feldspar in Can adaamountedto 15,944Lons,of'a value of $91,- 273. It is reperted that, owing to increasing demand, much activity prevails in Frontenac county, where new mines are being opened up and roads constructed to provide transportation to the railways.

INTERESTING SCENES FROM MANY PARTS OF THE WORLD t-4- • 1 There are just three houses at Cameron Lake; the Chalet, where you will stay and where the train stops, the telegraph . operator's house and the one where the Section boss dwells. The Lake itself is four and « quarter miles long by one wide, is chiefly fed by the Cameron River at tho West end and runs out into the Qualcium River at the East end. The fly-fiBhing begins at tho end of May and goes on till the end of August, the trolling from May to September and sometimes well on Into October. For trolling there are so many hundreds of different spoons of silver, copper or both that it is hard to say which is best, but a Victoria spoon (made in London, England) used with a trailer worm on a trailer hook is one of the best in British Columbia, or else an ordinary Stewart spoon. As the larger fish very seldom rise to the surface, trolling for these must be done with a heavy sinker. The record trolling is thirty- eight pounds in one evening. - "Ye early fish" is an unknown quantity at Cameron Lake so it is not a bit of use getting up with the worm. But from noon until dark the going's good. As every fisherman knows he must learn his water and become acclimatized ere he lays down the law as to flies, so I give only a few of the general stand-bys which it is safe to bring along: 'March Brown,' 'Montreal,' 'Par- machene Belle,' 'Silver Doctor,' 'Coachman' (three kinds), 'Jock Scott,' and in oarly spring 'Black Ant.' Both for trolling und for flyfishing the tackle needs to be of the vory finest on these still lakes. It may attract the venturesome to know that he must keep to the road (there is only one road) or the few trails round Cameron Lake; once off these there Is every certainty of his getting 'bushed.' Vancouver Island is as long as Ireland and as wide as Wales; only (1) En route to Cameron Lake via the famous Malahat (2) Cameron Lake, British Columbia. a bare half of it has been exploited and only half of that much is settled. Therefore, lest any lake should become 'fished out' they are restocked from the Cowichan hatchery from time to time; in 1919 twenty thousand fry of mountain trout were put into Cameron Lake. The most numerous are the cut-throat, and one - of the biggest of these caught weighed five and a half pounds. Then there are the Dolly vardon and a few Rainbows. The following are somo record catcheB recounted to me as authentic by one T. P. McBey, an old-timer nnd a well-known angler at the Lake. Record catch:—Ninety-four fish in one evening ranging from quarter to two and a half pounds, flyfishing, starting at 7 P.M. Two rods caught one hundred and sixty fish In one evening. Frequently nineteen are caught in twenty minutes. Thero is plenty of good trout fishing in both the Camoron and Quali- cum Rivers, also In the near-by mountain-lakes, as yet unnama.1 most of them. There 13 or.o n quarter of a mile square with no inlet or outlet but stiff with trout too lazv to flao awav. For those who are keen on sea fishing there is Qualicum Beacb only eleven miles away by road where the big fifty and sixty pounders of the tyce-salmon run every five years and in other years Cohoe, black cod and spring salmon put up quite a respectable game. The tragic failure of the 1919 salmon season leads one to foretell tho same fate for the salmon as befell the buffalo unless something ia done for their immediate protection. Gill nets, purse-seine nets, the sub-letting of licenses, the invasion of the much-too-expert Japanese fishermen are some of the reasons which our grand-children will give for the extinction of the salmon on the Pacific Coast.

AIDING WOMEN IMMIGRANTS In the midst of the city of Montreal, half-way between the uptown and downtown business districts, on the corner of two of the best residents! streets, there stands, surrounded by large shade-trees, a substantial and comfortable old-fashioned stone dwelling-house. On one of the pillars of the wide hospitable looking entrance is a brass plate announcing the house to be Dorchester House, the Canadian Women's Hostel of Montreal. This house is the Montreal headquarters of the association, which with the aid of the Government has undertaken to provide a welcome for the women of the old lands coming to make their homes in Canada," no matter what may be their nationality or religion. The house stands for a welcome to these women from beyond the sea, but it 'also stands for many other things, such as safety for even thc most inexperienced traveller, kindliness and assistance during the first days of natural bewilderment in strange surroundings, employment for those seeking work, and a friendly headquarters until the stranger feels herself firmly established in thc new land. m. During the five years the association has been in existence the hostel has proved a boon und its workers have befriended thousands of girls nnd women from the old lands. Since the removal in May, l'.i20, of the hostel to Dorchester House, its present beautiful and spacious quarters, the promoters of the work have been enabled more than ever to provide a veritable "home from home" for the girls and women newly arrived in Canada. Montreal, a port city in summer anil the great railway termini!! of the east at ull seasons, forms a sort of gate-way to ull parts of the Dominion west of the Maritime Provinces, Thus the functions of thc hostel include the entertaining for a few hours of rest, of travellers bound for the distant west of Can ada. An explanation of the methods of Work of the hostel shows how every precaution is taken for the safety and comfort of the travellers. Before the boat arrives in dock or the boat train is due at the station the name of every unaccompanied woman and girl on the boat has been received at the hostel. The deacon- nesses of Dorchester House meet the boats and trains no matter at what hour they may arrive. The girls can identify them by means of a purple badge worn on the arm, and may be provided themselves with a small purple button by the immigration authorities. But whether wearing the official button or not, if in need of help of any kind, if without friends in the country, if disappointed in meeting expected friends, they need only speak lo "the wearer of >he purple badga and their difficulties will vanish Defore wisdom and experience. tf, The strangers are straightway brought to Dorchester House where they may obtain comfortable rooms and board at a very small expense, or if domestic workers without employment remain 24 hours free of charge, during which time a post is fov.nd for them. Those going on to the west are taken to the hostel for t few WtU's i'tft while the procedure ■ »:.,*»«_::---../:,:..:. v. - .fl.-..:.:-. '.*X*eWXStmMtm*ma********m****mmt\. Jniiiiiiiiiiiiimniiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitv for the remainder of the journey is explained to them, and they are started on their way. In the meantime the hostel advises friends at the end of the journey of their impending arrival. If no such friends exist a representative of the hostel in the nearest centre arranges for a church home for the friendless girl in her new home and through this connection tics of friendship are soon formed. A casual visit to Dorchester House at nny hour of thc dny or evening impresses the visitor that the house lives in every way up to its motto of a "home from nnme." The girls who have once had n taste of its hospitalities never fall, if in the city, to keep In close touch with its good times. Tliere is no trace of "institution" about the home where the girls go and come in tho freest possible manner under the kindly supervision of the Lndy Superintendent who soon becomes also thoir mother-confessor and host friend in the country. Tho big lofty rooms are furnished with artistic yet homely taste, and the girls' own sitting-room, with big chairs and couches and a piano, is an ideal spot for friendly gatherings and jolly afternoons and evenings. , During the year of 1920 about 1,400 women and girls from the old land wero entertained in some way by the hostel. Many of the girls came to Montreal without prospect of work, without connections or even acquaintances in this country. The employment bureau of the hostel found positions for those wishing to remain in Montreal without charge to them, and afterwards kept in touch with them to see. that they were happy and contented and had met with fair treatment. As the largest field by far for women's work in Canada is domestic service, the girls, if at all capable in that direction, can be placed directly in good homes in the city. If further training is necessary the hostel arranges for classes in house work, and a few lessons in Canadian methods of housekeeping, which may ho obtained at tho hostel, are very helpful to any of the overseas women. ■ • • ... No matter how comfortable the home, however, the girl alone in a strange community longs for recreation and the companionship of young people with a glimpse of faces from over there." This is where Dorchester House again steps in. The house is open to the girls at all times and. tney may obtain any one of the three meals a day for the small charge of a shilling, a quarter 1 in Canadian Money. Tho uBe of tho " recreation rooms is entirely free of charge. There is never a day goes by that the pirls do not drop in for tea and a visit, Thursday afternoona and evenings arc gala occasions overy week, for Thursday is a half, holiday for the domestics in most Canadian homes. The girls come to tea alone or in groups, and the meal is not well over when the rugs arc rolled bnck from the sitting-room floor and a dance is in full swinar. At all times the girls send their parcels, and get their mail at Dorchester House, and come with their troubles and sometimes "bring a grouch and leave without it," in the words of the Lady Superintendent. In cases of illness the hostel' arranges for the girls entering a hospital if necessary, and if a rest is all that is required the patient can arrange to stay at the hostel. At the Christmas season holiday feasts at Dorchester House are the order of the day. Several of the city churches, as well as the hostel authorities, provide entertainments for the girls, and sometimes from 150 to 200 guests attend these parties. During the summer of 1920 "Cupid" made of Dorchester House his Canadian headquarters for a few weeks. In one week five weddings took place in the parlor of the hostel. The brides who had come over to marry their boys were met by ths Deaconesses and brought to Dorchester House, where the marriage was solemnized, and a little wedding tea-party given to celebrate the occasion after which the pair wero given a send-off to their new home, usually in the far distant west. At Christmas, 1920, cards and letters poured in from all par's of Canada to Dorchester House, Montreal, from grateful girls. - -- hihmi. ...Millinn......linn.iihhiii PAPE'S DIAPEPSIN CORRECTS STOMACH, ENDS INDIGESTION ''Mint, ,., "Pape's Diapepsin" ib the tjuickest, surest relief for Indigestion, "Gases, Flatulence, Heartburn, Sourness, Fermentation or Stomach Distress caused by acidity.
