We have never" known a child that was in- jured by work at school, but we know many who haye been injured permanently by idleness. It is not likely that there is a normal child at school who could not do the_ assigned homework in an hour or two hours, if this work has' been done faithfully from the beginning. And the children are much better doing it than being idle. It is idleness that kills. . New Minister of Railway The Hon. Dr. MacLean is receiving the congratulations of bis numerous friends and Bupporters in this riding on his appointment as Minister of Kail ways. This portfolio entails the administration of the P. G. E. Railway and all its kindred problems. The Hon. Dr. MaeLean will retain the provincial secretaryship and head of the educational department. Last week Premier Oliver issued the following statement: "I have tendered, and His Honor the administrator has accepted, my resignation as minister of railways. I have recommended Hon. Dr. MacLean as my successor and he has been sworn in. "My reason for resigning the position are that ~I have much more work than I could do and I was getting out of touch with much important government work. I intend to devote more time to visiting different parts of the province and to study provincial requirements. "I think Hon. Dr. MacLean has made a splendid success of his ad. ministration of the office of pro vincial secretary and minister of education, and I feel sure that he will do all that is possible towards improving conditions on the Pacific Great Eastern Railway, which though not strictly departmental matter, is undoubtedly the greatest problem at the present time." "The Scoffer" son, Ivor, Kamloops, Kettle Valley Notes ���- Geo. Lee came in from Kelowna last Sunday and is shipping his sawmill to that place.

John Walker is having a big Turket Shoot on Saturday, Nov. 4, on the baseball grounds, Rock Creek at 1.30 p.m. Come and get your Thanksgiving Turkey. Many are thinking of getting their fancy dresses ready for the G. W. V. A. Annual Masquerade Dance in the Masonic Hall, Greenwood, on Friday, Nov. 10th. Let's all go. "The Scoffer," heralded as one of the season's real dramatic thunderbolts, is announced as the attraction at the Greenwood Theatre on Saturday, October 28th. It, is said this is Allan Dwan's . mut^rgiece^nd ._on .this_grqund.it is expected to cause "quite a bit of excitement. v Grumbling seems to do people some good; It's like, the groans of a sick matt. They dont do him any good unless it be in making other people feel miserable, and there is some" satisfaction in that. W. O. Miller, divisional superintendent, C. Martin, district engineer aad C, Johnson, road- master, passed through Greenwood enroute to Midway by motor on Tuesday, to meet Mr. Fairbairn, chief engineer of the C. P. R., of Montreal, who is on a tour of" inspection of right of way and bridges. Mr, Fairbairn is an old-timer of Greenwood having resided hrce ia the early days, heing a civil engineer. He was accompanied by his daughter who was born in Ana- icoflda. When a child starts dreaming and,wondering his way into life, he-is beautiful in his - innocence. Floating around him everywhere are sweet subconscious memories of the laud from which he came. It is a pity to spoil all that lov- liness with tbe taint' and Hastiness of the underworld. Yet we have little boys at school who can scarcely talk without swearing,- or using language which is not clean. The parents are to blame for this deplorable condition. What is the teacher to do with the little swearers? - It is theparents that should be punished. Yet schools are for children, and it is the children who have to be moulded into worthy characters. Can women keep a secret? The Ladies Aid have given a definite yea in answer to this old old question. More " than three weeks ago they planned to have a surprise party at the home of Rev. aud Mrs. Walkinshaw and although Mrs. Walkinshaw was present af meetings bf the Aid, never a whisper reached her of the intention of her fellow "Aiders". The "Aiders;"prevented by the absence of Mr. W., were on Tuesday evening of this week at last permitted to become jolly "R-Aiders." About 8 p.m. despite the rain, they foregathered in the vicinity of the manse? on Kimberley Ave., each one laden with good "things" both for immediate consumption and to leave as choice reminders of their visit., The surprising was complete and a happy evening was spent. The party left about 10,30 .thoroughly satisfied with the success of the raid. -' During the fall smart people are beginning to debate whether Shakespeare or the man who in- I vented roast beef had done the [most for England. This is a real subject for a real debating club. Unquestionably white bread and roast' beef have led the civilization of the world for many a long day. For the lack of roast beef and white bread Russia made-a fool of herself and for the lack of the spirit of a Shakespeare, Germany fell from her ,estateV In the lore of Shakespeare there is wisdom and knowledge that _has shown _ men the way in the difficult path of civilization, and roast beef has given men the energy to follow the path far in spite of its difficulties. The long dark nights are here once more. It is in the darkness that the beasts of prey prowl, and the villan executes his wicked deeds. So all down through the ages from the dawn of civilization men have been afraid of the dark. So'great indeed has been this fear that the blessings and comfort of the dark have "received ' but little attention. Social intercourse springs into life at .night. It is then that music is heard aad songs float upon.the air.' But the fear of the dark kept men from fully appreciating these blessings , surprised," she cried, "to think that you dont. know wl.u Chickadees are! They are thc cunningest, cheeriest kind of birds you coum possibly imagine." ��� , , , . ���,i���f������ "And is that why wc remind you of them?" asked Snookums, shyl. edging nearer to the Fairv. .��� " . . , "Surely, lazy, sleepy Lorykins doesn't remind you of a Unckauee. Pimzie grinned mischievously. ,.. , . ,._,,, Stella didn't answer this question! Shc thought' it best not to.as you know, she hates to hurt anyone's feelings, and .after all, poor little L��U��;"�� cannot verv well help being sleepy most of tho time. So she turned liom Pimzie to Snookums and answered his question with a nod. "Tell us all about them," he begged. "What do they look like? "Chickadees," began Stella, "are about an inch smaller than a. Spanow, which would make them five inches long. They have black necks, t��roats and crowns. White cheeks that look as though they run down into-a sou of collar. Their wings.and tails are gray with white edgings, while tlie rest of them is a dull white. ,. This doesn't sound as though they were as good looking as thev really are, for they are awfully pretty little things; but the prettiest thing about them is their sweet, cheerful disposition.^ _ 1 hey are always chirping their merry call, which sounds like this (the Jbairy pursed up her tiny lips,to imitate it): Chickadee-dee-dee-dee." _ "Oh," exclaimed Kinkajou, "that's how they get their name, isnt il{ Stella nodded and continued: "Most birds leave for warm countries in thc cool days of autumn, but not so the Chickadee. It stays throughout the snow and dreariness of winter, as though it feels that its jolly little presence helps to make things a bit more gay���and it does! And it is at its very gayest in a snowstorm. I am sure that if Chickadees could they would play snowball and pelt each other!" "How do they nest?" asked Lorykins, whose idea of a snowstorm would be to get out of it and into some warm, comfortable place. "Thev hollow out a snug hole in a tree trunk," the Fairy answered and ihen, suddenlv thinking of something that amused her, she smilingly added: "But they are so clever that they often save themselves this trouble by taking over a deserted old home of some Woodpecker or Nuthatch. Once I found two Chickadees keeping house very happily in a Squirrel's old hole, for it was just the kind of one that they wanted and had been hunting for." "How about the Squirrel?"" asked Pimzie. "Surely a teenie-weenie Chickadee couldn't rout a Squirrel from its home." "No; you're quite right; but in this particular case the poor little Squirrel had been killed by a thoughtless, cruel boy who had broken its leg by shooting it with a toy gun. The Squirrel struggled to reach its home, but couldn't, and it died from pain and starvation among the higher roots of a big Oak." "You must know," she went on after a pause, "that besides making the world a gayer place iu Chickadee is real- lv a'very useful little citizen." "How?" , "I once told you all about the Canker Worm," Stella said, "and.how quickly it can strip -a whole .orchard���of course/there are thousands and.thousands of them.

British Harbor Progress Suction Elevator Greatly Facilitates Handling o'f Grain An engineering visitor from the United States to Great Britain recently paid his testimonial to the excellence of the modern plant installed at British ports for the handling of coal and of ships' cargoes in general. Thc high standard of efficiency thus indicated is being shown in connection with the discharging and storing of grain. The Clyde, for example, now possesses one of thc finest granaries, and there was recently installed a pneumatic suction grain elevator which has a capacity of one hundred tons of grain per hour. By means of this plant the grain is sucked up from the hold of the vessel and discharged direct into the store. Desertion 0? Children Becomes Extraditable Has Bsen Added to List Between U.S. and Canada "Wilful desertion or wilful non-support of minor or dependent children," has been added to the list of extraditable offenses* as-between" the United States and Canada. The addition is made as the result of a supplemetnary convention signed at London on May 15, 1922, by Hon. George I-Iarvey, United States Ambassador to London, and Lord Curzon, Secretary for Foreign Affairs. The convention was ratified on July 2S and comes into effect ten days affer publication.

Queer Sheep Vou are so used to seeing our domestic sheep with' tails.-which are "nothing to speak of" that you will hardly believe there are sheep in some parts af the world -with tails which weigh as much as forty to eighty pounds. These "fat-tailed" sheep are found in Northern India and Egypt. The tail is considered a great delicacy, and the Arabs cut 'it in slices and fry it, but ^someone who tasted this delicacy said it was very much like fried tallow. In Shanghai there is a breed of sheep which has no external ears, and neither sex has any horns. ��� . " :"-.;-B.C.'.Lumber' Shipments'������-..

Lloyd George Resigns ^ nd Bonar Law Takes Government CANADA'S-FOREIGN TRADE WESTERN-EDITORS London.���After occupying the office oi Prime Minister through seven of the most critical years of British history���three years'" of war and four years of reconstruction���David Lloyd George went into the wilderness today. This was the description in his Manchester speech of his position if the Unionist, wing of his followers should desert him. Unionist withdrawal from the Coalition was decided upon by the meeting which Austen Chamberlain had called at the Carlton Club, and which .was attended by lhe Coalition members of the House ^of Commons and a handful of lorcls who were enrolled in the cabinet. Tlie -vole was ISO to 87 against, thc Chamberlain policy of pledging the parly to "sustain the Coalition, and in favor of a general election lo confirm its course. - The meeting was followed by a succession^ of swift events which carried-the Coalition Government into .utter darkness. Andrew Bonar Law will put on the Prime Minister's mantle for a short term of office. The King summoned him to Buckingham Palace and invited him to form a new government, which Mr. Bonar Law wiil undertake, although the state_of his health, which compelled him to withdraw from public life a few months ago, makes it a risky venture. Before Mr. Bonar Law can formally accept the Premiership, however, a meeting of the Unionist party,must'be held-to elect a new leader to carry out the policy to b<; decided by caucus. This meeting will be held within ;* few days, when Mr. Bonar Law will be chosen. HAS EXTENSIVE EXCHANGE WITH ASIA AND SOUTH AMERICA Ottawa.���-Canada has "a commercial exchange with Asia, including Japan, but excluding Russian and Turkish Asia, worth.J43,000,000 a year, 'according lo unrevised figures of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics." With Oceania, the Dominion does business to. the extent oi: $20,000,000 a year, while with Mexico and the countries of South America bordering on the Pacific her trade is valued at $14,000,- 000 a year. In the aggregate this trade is about evenly divided between imports and exports. _ With Asia, the two accounts' almost balance; Oceania sells Canada $5,000,- 000 worth of goods and takes $15,000,- 000 of ours, but Mexico and the west coast of South America sent Canada $11,700,000 worth a year and lake only $2,200,000. The whole subject of trans-Pacific trade will be gone into by the Pan- Pacific Commercial Conference which will open at Honolulu, October 25. , F. C. T.

INTER-IMPERIAL MIGRATION AS A REMEDY FOR CONGESTION IN BRITAIN London. ��� Inter-imperial migration had a prominent place in the discussion at the international conference on the re-affirmation of the world's'moral ideals/held in Caxton Hall, Westminster. Lord? Parmoor, presiding, referred the widespread irregularity of sex relations, and Sir Joseph .Ward, High Commissioner for Aus- lralia��.in London, expressed the opinion lhat emigration within the empire was itself7 one of the fundamental . remedies. - ' .. Colonel L. C. Amery, Secretary of the Board of Admiralty, said it was a mistaken idea that migration meant a weakening of "the/"population in Britain, and possibly a weakening ot its resources. Migration meant an increase*' of population and prosperity for the race. In the immediate con dition of Great Britain .faced by urgent financial problems of congestion and growth of population in excess bf Increased building and social remedies from the point of view of social welfare,it was immensely desirable that the immediate pVoblem .should be eased by migration to another part of the empire. One .unfortunate consequence of undirected, emigration was the excess of men going out of the country over women. It was important to encourage the emigration of women, but this required more care than the migration of men. Dealing with the importance of encouraging" the migration of the young, Colonel Amery suggested that much might be done in that direction by sending but.parties.of Boy Scouts, under trustworthy scoutmasters, to learn farming. ������'-_' A Union Of Interests W.

Andrew Bonar Law, who-is to lead the new Government, in a message to an evening newspaper, confirmed hiK intention to advise King George to immediately dissolve Parliament and added that this fact Avould give ample lime to deal with the Irish legislation.

Haig, Commander- in-Chief of the British army, were brought to the session of-the convention hf the American Legion by Major J. B.

"The Legionmen," he said, "are united. to further a common' object- namely, the betterment of the lot of the ex-service men, and the 'betterment of the conditions "under which their wives and children shall live."
