The commission investigates thc\ncost of living in the district every three months and regulates\nwages accordingly. This provision is in the new agreement.\nThe negotiations for the new agreement, which involves about one thousand three hundred men, have been\nunder way for some time, and that\nthese proceedings were carried on\nwithout any friction whatever arising\nspeaks volumes for the harmonious\nrelations existing between the men\nand the management of the Canadian\nCollieries (Dunsmuir) Limited. Great\ncredit is due the management of Ihe\ncompany for the eminently fair manner in which they deal with the large\nnumber of men whom thoy employ.\nThe negotiating ot new agreements\nbetween a large body ot workmen and\na company Is always attended with an\nelement of anxiety on both sides, but\nthis element was reduced to the minimum In the present instance. Remembering the unhappy state tn which the\nlabor markets of the world are today,\nwith living cost falling and wages being radically reduced by some corporations, the pleasant manner In which\nthe new working agreement was consummated ls a cause of thankfulness\non the part of all concerned. Follow\ning his broadmiuded and far-seeing\npolicy of dealing with tlie employees\nas 'fellow workers,\" to use his own expression, Mr. Thomas Graham, the\nGeneral Superintendent, has forged\nanother strong link in the chain of\npleasant relations binding thc company and men together.\nBoth he and Mr. Charles Graham,\nDistrict Superintendent, arc the gentlemen with whom the employees come\nInto Immediate contact, hut behind\nthese men there stands Mr. James M.\nSavuge, General Manager, than whom,\nprobably no large body of employees\nhave a warmer-hearted friend, who ls\nalways willing to do bis utmost for the\nmen's welfare and the betterment of\nworking conditions.\nPrevious to tiie mass meeting thc\nnegotiations were carried on by the\nAgreement Committee, comprising R.\nWalker, chairman; John Horbury, secretary; A. J. Taylor, R. H. Robertson,\nD. Stewart and J. Davis. This committee remains in existence during the\nlife of the agreement, to negotiate\nwith the management over conditions\nthat may arise from time to time.\nPublic Lecture\nSunday Night\n\"Thousands Now Living Will\nNever Die\" Subject of Mr.\nW.

Hood, president ot the association, Dr. E. R. Hicks, secretary, Mr.\nJ. Sutherland and Mrs. E. Eccleston.\nThe matter was very fully and freely\ndiscussed from all angles by both the\nvisitors and mayor and aldermen.\nThe council was reluctant at first to\n.vote any money for this purpose,\nsaying It was a bad precedent, but after earnest appeals and assurances\nthat this was of a temporary nature\nand not to be taken as a precedent,\nthe council voted to pay half the cost\nof four months' service, quoted at $60\na month, which will only involve the\nexpenditure of $120 by the council.\nTWO PRESENT AT\nINDEPENDENT MEETING\nHad Given Open Invitation to\nAll Opponents of Union\nGovernment\nEarly iu the week posters were distributed around town calling for an\norganization meeting of \"ull voters\nopposed to the Union Government.\"\nDelegates were lo be appointed to attend tiie convention to nominate an\nIndependent candidate at Courtenay\non Saturday.\nThc G.W.V.A. hall had been engaged\nfor the occasion, and besides the large\nnumber of local voters expected, a\nnumber of big wigs from Courtenay\nwere coming up to tell the Cumberland folks what's what, or maybe\nwho's who, or who aint! However,\nthe hall was duly opened at 7.30 and\nln it was a nice lire. But all those\nopposed to the Meighen Government\u2014\nwell, there does not seem to be enough\nln this city to cause the Hon!

The gentleman who\nhad been requested to arrange for the\nmeeting was present, as well as another.

The earliest law was \"a tooth\nfor a tooth.\" \"Thou shalt break the\nteeth of tho wicket,\" exclaims the\nPsalmist.\nIn the Doulnk Mountains, at Cairo,\nEgypt, I have seen the mummy of the\ngreat Pharoah, Ramcses II., with his\nteeth still showing iu a state of perfect preservation, proving that the\nEgyptians and the Assyrians had\nbrought dentistry up to an art, even\nill those remote times.\nJinn, In his most primitive state,\nsoon saw the value and importance of\nbis teeth In the preservation of his\nhealth and comfort. The close connection between good molars and\ngood digestion was ensily perceived,\nalthough the scientific data of digestion might not have boen known.\nAmong the lirst navigators tho teetli\nwere often usod in untying ropes, and\nhence came the expression \"In the\nteeth of the tempest.\"\nMen tore raw meat from the bodies\nof the wild beasts tbey slew; and later,\nunhappily, learned to bite one another\nln the savage frenzy of the light. Thus\nthey found that their teeth wore not\nonly a means of livelihood, but also a\nmeans of defence In battle.\nI have seen the Arabs in Africa, and\nthe wild savages of Uganda, rub their\nteeth with sticks of wood and take\ncare to kep them clean and white.\nAmong the Moros of the Philippine\nIslands, on tho other hand, the teetli\nare blackened with the betel-nut; this\nthey do ln the effort, supposedly, to\nmake themselves beautiful.\nSome tribes in the South Sea Islands\nfile their teetli and make them look\nlike saws\u2014thinking thus to make\nthemselves attractive.\nBut for whatever reason, whether\nfor supposed reasons of health or comfort or beauty, man, universally, is\nInterested lu his teeth. As tlle ages\ncame and wont, the Americans with\ntheir great intuition for invention,\nemerged upon tlie scene.\nThey, the most practical people of\nhistory, quickly saw that the terrors\nof toothache, the horrors of toothless\nold age, the deformity of wrinkles\nabout a mouth lacking thc natural\noutlines produced by regular rows of\nteeth, could all he eliminated by scientific dentistry.\nI have often said I would not lose a\ntooth for live hundred dollars. But\nthat ls a very low value lo put upon a\ntooth.\nAfter the Battle of tho Marne, I saw\nan American dentist, at the American\nAmbulance Corps, In Paris, restore the\nentire jaw of a young English soldier,\nby taking the man's own rib and making a jaw out of that.\nEarly ln the Groat War American\ndentists were acclaimed thc leaders.\nMiracles of dentistry were performed.\nAn American dentist gave professional service to the former Kaiser\nbefore the war, and. In a brilliant\nbook, has given the world perhaps the\nbest portrait it has yet had of that\nIll-omened man.\nThe American dentists in the hospitals In France told me that tlic\nArabs had the best teeth and of all\nthe soldiers of the Allies, the English\nhad the worst.\nToday the Americans are a people\nof destiny. Nowhere else ill the world\ndo people do so much to make childhood happy. In the schools many of\nthe children have regular dental examinations free. Among all the well-to-\ndo classes of our land, the lirst parental care Is to look out for the teeth\nol the rising generation. As a result\nwe have many young men and women\nwho have never lost a tooth, who\nhave never lost a night's sleep as a\nresult of toothache.\nThe American girl is often acclaimed\nthe world's most beautiful woman.\nAnd one of her greatest charms usually is a set of almost perfectly preserved white teetli.\nAt a casual glance, the teeth are\nthe main feature of the face we see;\nhence the Immense importance of having good looking teeth. There is little excuse for anyone having poor\nteeth. The dental profession is today\nthe best developed of any lu tho country. There nre all sorts of crowns,\nbridges, Inlays, platos and so forth-\nall sorts of scientific dentifrices,\nShrinking gums are now easily prevented. . The pleasing taste of most\ndentifrices makes the care of the teeth\nnot only valuable, but a positive\npleasure.\nNovoealne and skillful work by our\ndentists make a visit to Ibe dentist's\nofiice no longer a trial but a pleasure.\nAnyone who neglects his teeth is\ndigging his own grave.\nI always pay my dentist first\u2014because he makes life worth living.\nI was wrong; a good tooth is worth\na thousand dollars.\nBig Attendance\nAt Masquerade\nJunior Football Annual Fancy\nDress Dance Was Very\nEnjoyable Affair.\nMonday night the annual masduer-\ne.ie dance given by the Cumberland\nlud Division and Junior Football Club\nvas held ill tlle Ilo-Llo Dance Hall,\n\\ lion there was a good attendance of\nspectators, though the number of\nlancers in costume was not up to exudations.

Since this hen has had so much\nto do with the high production in our\nstrain of White Wyandottes now kept\nat the Sidney Experimental Station,\nher nnme deserves a place In the hall\nof fame of the poultry world, und her\nachievement told iu story.\nThis hon wus hutched May 1, 1917,\nand laid her flint egg on October 30,\n1917, being 182 days old. Sho had no\noutstanding character in size, shape or\ncolor. At time of laying her first egg\nher body weight wns live und one-\nyuurter pounds. Her eggs averaged\n25 ounces per doz., and there were 257\nof them during her pullet year. Of\nthese 85 were laid during tlie four\nwinter months, November 1 to February 28, 1918.\nProgeny Also Hoary Producer*.\nThat she was nble to transmit her\nhigh production to her offspring mny\nbe seen by reference to the following\ntuble, showing the achievement of her\nfemale progeny retched in 1919:\nWinter Pullet Year\nNo. of Bird.

The poultry world will probably\nhear more of these records after the\nend of the year, for though B 162 la\ndead her work still follows her.\nKm is Hen Was Non-Slttcr.\nB162 was never broody. She was\nattending so strictly to her business,\nthat of egg production, that she had\nno time. It would seem that this\ncharacter was also transmitted,, for\nonly three of her daughters have ever\nlost time because ot broodiness.\nMuch has been said nnd written concerning the Importance of the male\nIn the flock from the standpoint of\nhigh production. No doubt he does\noccupy an important place, but we are\nmore and more convinced with thc\nyears thut if we nre to obtain high\nproduction, and to hold it, Jhat the\ntrait must be inbred with the mother\nas well as the male.\nE.

After 15\nminutes play Bond received a nice\npass from Freloni and opened (he\nseining for tiie Juniors. After the\nkick-off, Stevenson got away on his\nown on the right, sent over a good\ncross but Bond ami his partners nil\nmissed a good opportunity.\nCumberland were doing most, of (he\npressing now. and Stevenson scut in\na hard drive, but Was unfortunate in\nnot scoring, tlie ball hitting the upright. Boffy wan then tested by Partridge and Reid, hut he cleared bis\nlines well; Fouracre was then called\non to handle the ball with a stinging\nshot from ^Robertson. Half-time was\ncalled with one goal registered in favor\nof the Juniors.\nThe second half started off with the\nHigh School boys malting for Holly,\nand he bad to run out of his goal to\nclear. The High School boys, playing\nnice combination, looked dangerous,\nami results were bound to come.* A\nfew moments later Walker netted tiie\nball, equalizing tlie score.\nThe game was now very fast aud\ngood football was shown by both sides\nbut both seemed lo be too anxious in\nfront of goal, as their shooting was\nnone too accurate. Bond sent in a\ngood one, but Fouracre brought off a\ngood save by turning the ball over tbe\ncrossbar, giving away a corner. Offside aud fouls slowed up the game a\nlittle, although both teanis tried to\nincrease their score.

A friend asked him what he was doing\ntowards the prosperity of the province and Canada, and\npointed out to him that his shoes were made in New England, that he was wearing hose knit in New York, his\nsuit was tailored in England, his necktie Imported from\nChicago, his shirt from across the line, his hat was\nmade in the United States, and his handkerchief was the\nproduct of Japan! These articles of clothing represented\n$44.25 ln wages paid to workers living outside of the\nprovince.\nNow the stores are being flooded with German and\nJapanese-made goods, while thousands of workers of the\nprovince and Dominion are workless.\nTWO DEAD HORSES\nHon. W. L. Mackenzie King has apparently decided to\nadopt \"reciprocity\" as the basis for his tariff reduction\nprogramme. He Is flogging a dead horse, says the Nelson\nNews. Reciprocity was voted upon by the people of Canada in 1911 and they voted It down by a great majority.\nIn 1921, with world competition greater than it ever was,\nan unemployment situation which taxes the best efforts of\nour country and our great neighbor ln the south more\nstrongly entrenched ln Its battle for trade ln this and\nother countries, It Is, to say the least, improbable that the\npeople of Canada would adopt a course which could not\ntail to throw our Industries Into the hands of a foreign\nnation and make the unemployment situation worse.\nMr. King himself is also flogging a dead horse. He says\nthat the War Times Elections Act was iniquitous in that\nit deprived some residents ot Canada of their votes. This\nact Is no longer In force, hut the only people it deprived\not their votes were Oermans and Austrians. Instead of\nbeing \"iniquitous\" to deprive them of their votes when\nthis country was at war with their nations, most people\nwill agree with the view that it would have been Iniquitous\nto have allowed them ln 1917 to use their votes against the\ninterests of the Empire.\nFighting Joo Martin, coal-mine operator, lawyer, real\nestate magnate and politician, may not be in the election\nfight after all. He has not yet been successful in obtaining\nnomination from any party.\nThe election date will suit Mayor \"Harry\" Gale of Vancouver admirably. After his defeat by Hon. H. H. Stevens\nhe will have time to secure the nomination for the mayoralty again and proceed to emulate Mayor \"Tommy\" Church\nof Toronto in the.civic race for long service in the chief\nexecutive position.\nGold has been flowing to this country from all over the\nworld, until it is now estimated that we have one-third of\nthe world's supply, and one-third of this, or a total of one-\nninth of the world's gold supply, has found lodgement In\nthe New York Federal Reserve district,\" said Walter B.\nBrown, editor of The New York Commercial, a few days\nago.\nDry Goods Department\nNEW ARRIVALS THIS WEEK IN LADIES' GABARDINE TRENCH COATS\u2014Priced\nfrom $19.50 to $37.50.\nMISSES' AND CHILDREN'S RAIN CAPES\u2014From $4.75 to $7.50.\nRAIN HATS\u2014RUBBERS\u2014GAITERS.\nThat Italian professor who said he could prove that the\nworld was flat, probably meant flat broke.\nA meeting was called for Wednesday night last to elect\ndelegates to attend the Independent Convention at Courtenay on Saturday.

Husband\nspoiled a good opportunity by kicking\nwide. This was the first time that\nBoyd, Cumberland's goalkeeper, had\nhandled the ball ln the quarter-hour's\nplay, hut lie had a busy time ln the\nnext five minutes. He saved a good\nshot from O'Brien under difficulties.\nAt this stage of the game Brewster\nmet with a slight acldent through a\nblock from Dickinson, but quickly recovered after a little first-aid attention. Thomas then just missed the\ngoal by a few Inches. Nanaimo was\ntrying hard for the equalizer and the\nCumberland defence was kept busy\nshaking them off. The game was now\nvery fast and luckily for Cumberland\nthe Nanaimo forwards were shooting\nwide. Cumberland lost many chances\nowing to Sutherland being called offside on many occasions. Half-time\narrived with one goal ln favor of Cumberland.\nThe second period started off at as\n: fast a clip as the first, Nanaimo being\n. the first to press, but Redfern was\n, called up for being offside. Through\ngood combination by Brewster and\nMilligan the ball was worked to Nanaimo's end, but Dickinson forced\nMilligan to kick past. A foul outside\nthe penalty corner against O'Donnell\nlooked dangerous but Thomas waa\ncalled up for offside and spoiled Nanaimo's chance.\nMilligan pressed Graham and the\nlatter waB forced to concede a corner,\nwhich was the first In tbe game. Milligan took the kick but failed to get\nresults, Ogle clearing his line with\nease, letting Husband away. Stewart\nwas forced to give away a corner,\nclosely followed by another, and with\nthe fracas In front of the goal Campbell gave away another corner, but\nthe kick proved fruitless. Sutherland\nonce more appeared In tbe limelight,\ngiving Routledge a hard shot to hold,\nbut he saved at the expense of a corner, but with no results.\nThe ball then travelled towards\nBoyd's goal and he bad difficulty In\ndisposing of a hard grounder from\nThomas, having to stretch himself\nin order to get the ball; a minute later\nHusband tried a pot shot, the ball hitting the top bar and running along Its\nfull length. Nanaimo now did most\nof the pressing, and a foul off Campbell outside the penalty area looked\ndangerous. Dickinson took the kick\nbut kicked wide, and give-and-take\nplay then followed until Referee Jones\ncalled time, with the score still standing 1 goal to Cumberland.\nTo Mr. Jones, the referee, must be\ngiven all credit for the manner in\nwhich he performed his duties, at all\ntimes having the players well under\ncontrol and thus preventing any unnecessary rough play. None of his\ndecisions were questioned; he even\nwent to the extent of Illustrating in\npantomime the reason for each decision ln a manner plainly to be understood by the spectators. Dickinson, captain of Nanaimo, was the star\nof the visiting team, ,whlle Sutherland\nexcelled In the home team, Campbell\nbeing a close second.\nThe game throughout, though hotly\ncontested, was played in a clean and\nsportsmanlike manner, not one single\ninstance spoiling the pleasure of the\nday, and the spirit of friendliness was\nmost apparent among the spectators,\nsome fifteen hundred of whom were\npresent. The visitors returned home\nwith many loudly-expressed opinions\nof the good time they had enjoyed,\ndeclaring their intention of reciprocating when Cumberland next visited\nNanaimo.\n(umberlaiid Has Good Lead.\nThis win gives Cumberland a good\nlead over all other teams competing in\nthe Upper Island League, and with a\nfair run they should have little difficulty In again annexing the championship, for the third time in succession\nThos.
