Griffin Co. have received\ncopies of a pamphlet on coal storage\nwhich Is being widely distributed in\nthe United States to counteract an agitation against the existence of cold\nstorage warehouses. The agitation has\nbeen based on the idea that such warehouses injured the consumer by enabling the seller to hold over goods\nthat otherwise would have to be\nthrown on the market In Canada\nthere is no such agitation and the warehouses are considered a benefit to producer and consumer alike, lt is not\nthought that the consumer would benefit so much from temporary gluts In\nthe market as he would loose from\nmore prolonged periods of shortage In\nsupplies. The pamphlet reads as follows:\nIn these days of agitation against\nhigh prices ot food products, the cold\nstorage warehouses are often blamed\nfor existing conditions, but- that they\narc really a blessing Instead of a curse\nto the consumer, fs very apparent when\none is made acquainted with the actual facts ln tbe case.\nPublic Utilities.\nCold storage warehouses are specially constructed buildings with up-to-date\nfacilities for carrying perishable products. In the aggregate, tbey represent an outlay of many millions of\ndollars and they are really concerns\nof public utility, or common carriers,\na.i but very few of them buy or own\nthe goods stored.\nThe rates of storage are uniform to\nall. No distinction whatever is made\nand anyone. who wishes to do so, has\nthe privilege to buy and I store during\nthe season of plenty that; he may sell\nor consume in the time of scarcity.\nEveryone, therefore, ls given an opportunity to deal in perishable products\nand a trust under these conditions,\nbecomes impossible.\nDifferent Temperatures Required.\nIn handling the various products,\ndifferent temperatures are required and\nthese temperatures' are kept practically\nunchanged throughout the time of\nstorage. For instance, butter Is usually held at a temperature of 10 degrees below zero, eggs Just below freezing point, while apples do not need\nthat much. The greatest care Is given\nto the handling of the goods ln the\nmost sanitary manner possible, and the\nrooms are always kept clean, sweet and\n-dry.\nFor Producer and Consumer.\nCold storage houses have become a\nveritable necessity to mankind, as\nthey absorb large' quantities ot the\nfinest perishable \u25a0'\u25a0 '\u2022.

Public Interest. t,,\n(Special Correspondence.)\nMOYIE, April 23\u2014A representative\nmeeting of the Moyie board of trade\nwas held last evening at which the most\nImportant business was discussed, the\nfeature of the session being the unanimous passing of a resolution tbat the\nMoyie board decline to become affiliated with the Associated Boards of Trade\nof East Kootenay which Ib at present\nunder organization and that it remains\nto exist in conjunction with the Associated Boards of Trade of Eastern.\nBritish Columbia.\nThis action was taken after much\ndiscussion, the concensus of opinion\nbeing that the. organizing of a separate associated board in East Kootenay would have-a tendency to decrease the influence 'of tne'' already\nwell established Associated Boards of\nTrade of Eastern British Columbia. It\nwas also pointed out that much had\nbeen accomplished by the united boards\nand that a dlssentlon would not, In all\nlikelihood, further the interests of the\nKootenays generally.\nA communication was read from R.\nT. Brymner, provisional secretary of\ntlie newly organized association, enclosing the following resolution which\nwas passed at a meeting held on March\n23, for the purpose of organizing the\nAssociated Boards ot Trade of East\nKootenay:\nThe Proposal.\n\"That in view of the geographical\nposition of East Kootenay the Interests of this district can be best served\nby the formation of'an association of\nthe existing boards of trade in the\naforementioned territory. Resolved:\nTherefore, in view of the existing conditions, we, tbe duly appointed delegates assembled, form an association\nto be known as the Associated Boards\nof Trade of East Kootenay.\"\nThe new association consists of the\nfollowing boards of trade:: Fernie,\n-Cranbrook, Hosmer and Michel and all\nchartered boards of trade within the\ndistrict that may hereafter make application for membership. A confirming meeting of the new organization\n\u2022will be held in Fernle on April 27, for\ntht pnrpoM of adopting * constitution\nand bylaws, after which new business\nmay be brought up.\nThe communication asked that the\n,Moyle board consider the advisability\nof becoming affiliated with the new association and as a result of the discussion the above action was taken.\nWEEPING HYSTERICALLY\nWEZLER CONFE8SE8 MURDER\nTACOMA, April 26\u2014Completely unnerved and weeping hysterically c. J.\nWezler extradited from San Francisco\non Friday ln connection with the murder of Mrs. Frederick Scbulz, at Gig\nHarbor, April 4, made a lengthy signed\nconfession to Sheriff Tom Morris and\nthe prosecuting -attorney today, admitting his guilt and throwing himself on\ntbe mercy of the court Wezler made\nno confession to the officers who extradited him but agreed with them to make\na complete one when the proper time\ncame.\nConstant brooding over the loss of his\ntwo children who were taken from him\na year ago when his wife obtained a\ndivorce in Seattle, is given by Wezler\nas the primary cause of the murder. In\na 1600 word statement he details his\ndomestic troubles, blaming Mrs, Schulz,\nhis mother-in-law, for having helped\nkeep his children from him.\nAppeals for Children\nWelzer said he did not mean to kill\nMrs. Schulz but lured her to Gig Harbor with a decoy, letter in order that he\nmight make an appeal for his children.\nHe says that Mrs.. Schulz refused to\nmake any arrangements and demanded\n$3000 alimony for ber daughter. When\nshe refused to argue with him, Wezler\nBays he lost all control of himself and\nBhot her down with a revolver which\nhe\" had In hia overcoat pocket. He\npleaded that he had ito lure his vififlm\nto Gig Harbor because he bad been\nthreatened with death if he called at\nthe Schulz home where his diverced\nwife was staying at the time.

An-der-Lahn, Prussia,\nApril 25\u2014The Zeppelin II, one of the\nthree dirigible balloons ot the German\ngovernment's aerial fleet ran away today and was destroyed. The airship\nwhich was forced to descend here last\nnight .owing to a storm encountered\nwhile attempting a return trip from\nHamburg to Cologne, broke her moor\ninga today and without a crew drifted\nin a southeasterly direction. Half an\nhour after its escape the dirigible dropped at WeUbutff and was smashed to\npieces,\nOne Returns\nOf the three laerial cruises that\nmade the successful flight from Cologne\nto Hamburg, where they were reviewed\nby the emperor and the officers decorated but one returned to Cologne under\nher own power. This was the Parse-\nval, which struggled triumphantly\nagainst the gale. The Gross II was\nsent home by train. At noon today the\ngas bags were filled and the Journey\nto Cologne was about to be resumed\nwhen a BUdden squall tore the dirigible\nfrom Its moorings, tossed it about for\n30 minutes and then dropped it with a\nbang that put ftn end to the monster's\ncareer.\nGathering up Fragments\nWE1LBURG, April 25\u2014The runaway\nZeppelin II descending here struck a\nclump of trees and parted in the middle.\nIt lodged among the trees at the side of\na cliff. The fire brigade and school\nscholars turned out and attempted to\nrescue what was left intact of the -machine. A special train loaded with soldiers has'arrived here and t,le fra\u20ac\"\nments will be gathered up by the military.\nTwo companies of infantry made fit-\ntile efforts to hold the airship when\nthe ropes broke. What caused the craft\nto descend after, so brief a flight Is\nnot known, but it is thought that the\ngas bags were torn and the mechanic-\nlam damaged while it was making its\nescape.\nRIOTING SUBSIDING.\nCHANG8AI, China April 25\u2014The\ncity is quiet tonight and tbe rioting at\nthe inland towns throughout the province of Hunan appears to be subsiding,\nnevertheless as a measure of precaution\npractically all of the foreigners have\nleft the capital and gone to Hankow.\nThe governor, Yang Wen Ting, has arrived and taken charge of affairs. He\nwas appointed to succeed Tsen Tchun\nMing, whom it has been supposed was\nmurdered by the native rioters but who\nas a matter of fact was dismissed because he had failed to prevent the out-\nbrek.

APRIL 26.\nCANADA'S DIGESTIVE ORGANS.\nWhen the last census ol British Columbia was taken, the population was\nless than 200,000, including Indians and\nChinese. Consider the social, commercial and political organization required\ntor that population,\u2014the schools,\nchurches, business establishments, railways, law courts, government offices,\nand all the officials of one sort or another required to work these organizations.\nThen observe that the immigration\ninto Canada for one year is 250,000, is\nfifty per cent, greater than the entire\npopulation of Alberta when that province was created, and is sixty per cent,\n-greater than the combined population\nof Alberta and Saskatchewan in 1901;\nless than ten years ago.\nThe social, commercial and political\norganization required for the present\npopulation of British Columbia has been\nbuilt up gradually in the course ot the\nlast fifty years. That for the 250,000\npeople who are coming into Canada\nthis year must be ready at once.\nIt has to be provided mainly by a\nfew western provinces that have had\nalready in the last few years to provide in a similar way for an Increase in\ntheir population of something like one\nmillion inhabitants, and that in tbe\nnext few years must provide for another\nmillion.\nAll this new population has, so to\n\u25a0speak, to be digested. Most of ita male\nadults wil1 'iave votes at the -next election. They have to be educated politically. Their children require schools.\nA host of men will be occupied in\nstores and wholesale houses, on newspapers and railways, in banks and in\nthe professions.\nOn the whole, so far, the needs of\nCanada's new population have amply\nand efficiently been provided for. The\norganizing and executive ability of\nCanada and of her people will likewise\nbe found quite equal to the future. But\nit will be a great work.\nOPPOSED TO RECIPROCITY.\nThe Winnipeg Free Press, the great\nLiberal paper of the prairies and the\nproperty of Hon. Clifford SIfton, has\ncome out flat-footed against any reciprocity agreement with the United\nStates that shall include manufactured\ngoods. The Telegram, the Conservative paper, takes the same poltlon.\nIn the east this bas occasioned some\nsurprise, particularly among those who\nthought with Goldwin Smith that the\ngrowth of a great agricultural population in the west would tend to create a\ndemand for the free admission of American manufactures.\nBut the west has never been ln favor\nof reciprocity with the. United States\nin anything but raw materials. In 1891\nwhen the Liberal party went to the\ncountry with unrestricted reciprocity as\nits platform, many Winnipeg Liberals\nopenly broke away from their party on\nthat issue; others who stayed with their\nparty openly denounced its tariff policy\nso far as unrestricted reciprocity was\nconcerned. The Free Press, itself then\nedited by Mr. Luxton who had always\nhitherto been an almost passionate Lib*\neral in Dominion politics, declared\nagainst the policy. The western constituencies voted the same way.\nFor this there were both political and\ncommercial reasons. In the west Canadian national spirit was strong. The\nweBt even then had a vision of -panada's future to which the east had not\nas a whole attained. It anticipated the\nposition taken shortly after by Edward\nBlake, and felt that a position of commercial dependence upon the United\nStates was not consistent with genuine\nnational freedom and independence.\nThe market of the west, unlike that\nof much of the east, had never been the\nUnited States. The wheat went to\nGreat Britain and the eastern provinces.\nFurther than that, unrestricted reciprocity meant that manufactured\ngoods and supplies of all sorts would\ncome in free from the south, and that\nSt, Paul and Minneapolis would to a\ngreat extent take the place of Winnipeg\nas the distributing centre of the Canadian prairie.\nApart from the energy, enterprize\nand ability of her people, It ls to the\nposition of Winnipeg as a distributing\ncentre that her growth Is due. Upon\nthe same basis rest her hopes of the\nfuture. The vast railway yards and\nthe thousands of railway employees\nhave been called into being by this.\nThe acres upon acres of big, commodious, substantial buildings, erected by\nwholesale houses, and their numerous\nemployees of one sort or another, are\nthere because of the business done from\nthis distributing point, either directly or\nthrough tbe medium of the branches\nwtth which many of these houses have\ndotted the prairie from Brandon to\nEdmonton.\nSo long as tbe great bulk of the manufactures and supplies for the prairie\ncomes in from the east, Winnipeg's\nposition as a distributing centre is unassailable. Everything brought fn over\nthe main lines of tbe C. P. R., tbe C. N.\nH. and the G. T. P. must come through\nWinnipeg. But if manufactured goods'\ncame in free of duty from the United\nStates, if American goods supplanted\nthose of the east fn the prairie market,\nif the great bulk of the merchandise to\nbe distributed over the prairie came In\nfrom the south, then it could be distributed from St Paul and Minneapolis\nwithout entering the Manitoban capital.\nThis applies not only to Alberta and\nSaskatchewan but even, to the greater\nportion of Manitoba, Itself.\nNorth of St. Paul to the Canadian\nboundary, and from the Red River to\nthe Rocky Mountains, is a wide territory in the whole of whfch \"not one city\nhas been able to build up itself into a\ngreat distributing centre In competition\nwith St. Paul and Minneapolis. Fargo\nand Grand Forks have positions on the\nroute from the Great Lakes to Dakota\nand Montana similar to that of Winnipeg on the route to western Manitoba,\nSaskatchewan and Alberta; but lt has\navailed them nothing.\nWinnipeg in 1901 did not desire to\nrepeat the experience of Fargo and\nGrand Forks, She does not today desire to risk her future expansion. To*\ngether with the trans-Canadian\nways, the eastern manufacturers\npractically the whole financial\ncommercial fabric of Canada,\nstands opposed to reciprocity with.the\nUnited States in anything but raw materials or \"natural products.\"\nrail-\nand\nand\nshe\nMinard Liniment for Cuts and Bruises\nADDITIONAL SPORT\nKetehell Now Sure to Win.\nNEW YORK, April 25\u2014When Stanley Ketchel enters the ring with Sam\nLangford on Wednesday night he will\nwear on his wrist a hand of elephant\nhair.

Whitney's musical production \"A\nKnight for a Day,\" under the direction\nof William Cranston, long* and favorably\nknown to Nelson theatre goera was moBt\nsuccessfully presented at the opera house\nlast evening to an audience that packed-\nthe house from floor to celling and roared\nout its approval of many catchy songs\nand skits, demanding and obtaining many\nencores. The company ia the same whlcn\nproduced \"The Royal Chef\" bo successfully\nhere early in the month, and last evening'*-*\nperformance created a still more favorable\ninipra-ssion, I , I\n\u25a0 MIbs Florence Slnnott as Little Day\u2014a\nservant' lady, easily took front rank last\nnight and delighted the audience with her\nexceedingly clever and mirth-provoking\nacting. Miss Helmerman looked charmingly and was especially happy in duets\nwith iMurce and Jay\u2014\"Xilfe is a See-Saw\"\nand \"The Uttle Girl in Blue.\" Mr. Conley,\nwho made an instaneous hit here in \"The\nBoyal Chef,\" was the lifht of the piece last\nnight, and shared the honorB with Miss\nSlnnott, whose \"I'd Like Another Situation Ju8t Like That\" will be remembered\nhere for many a day. Mr. Vaughan scored\nexceedingly in \"Drink to One Glorious\nKnight,\" m the second act, and ln his duet\nwith Mies Helmerman. The chorus was\neffective,' and danced gracefully and with\nmuch spirit, and their cost inning wns\npretty, varied and most elaborate throughout the entire performance, with a pleasing\nattention to all details that merits a\nspecial word of praise. The electrical1\nscenic effectB were quite out of the ordinary and wholly in keening with the reBt\nof the evening's excellent and finished\nentertainment. Taken aa a whole, no bet\nter performance of the kind has ever been\ngiven here.'\nThis evening \"The Royal Chef,\" with\nits many catchy songs, Including Mr.\nConley's \"Let Me Qo Back\/' which took\nso well here three weeks ago, will be\ngiven, concluding the company's engagement In Nelson this season.\n\"The Royal Chef,\" at the Nelson, opera\nhouae tonight. Return of the season's\nmost pleasing and delightful musical\ncomedy. - i \u2022\n\"It's a Way They Have In Chicago\" is\nthe title of one of the'song*numbers In\n\"The Royal Chef,\" and judging from the\nreception accorded this play here- On its\nlast-visit-and in other towns In western\nCanada, the \"Chicago way\" meets with\nMOTHERS\niHOHAVE\nDAUGHTER\nFind Help in Lydia E.

Her advice Is free*\nand always helpful.\nthe approval of theatre goers everywhere.\nThere's a reason. The menu served by\nWilliam Conley and his 40 associates is\none that satisfies the appetite of the most\nfastidious. It Is claimed toy critics everywhere that this play will be remembered\nwhen all other musical comedies are'for-\ngotten.\nThree things are necessary to the success of a musical comedy. Competent ana\nclever principals, pretty girls, and catchy\nmusic, \"The Royal Chef has all .these\nand more. It is one of the liveliest and\nsnappiest of plays and the action Is never\nallowed to lag. There is an ever changing\nkaleldeBcope of brilliant costumes ta\nplease the eye, and more than a score of\ntuneful melodies to tickle the ear and set\nthe head and foot swinging.\n\"The Royal Chef\" Is headed by that Inimitable comedian, Will J. Conley, in the\ntitle role. His \"Visa Iss de name please?'\nhaB become a byword through this country\nand is heard about the streets long after\nthe play has left town. Conley is capable\nof more serious work than musical comedy.\nJn the finale of the \"flrst act, when he\nsings \"Please Let Me Go Back to Chicago,''\nhe brings tears to the eyes of many ln\nthe audience, and therein lies the success\nof play and player, viz., tears and laughter.\n\"The Royal Chef\" Is playing under the\ndirection of William Cranston, who several years ago was manager of the Nelson\nopera house. Since then Mr. Cranston has\nreturned a number of times with musical\nattractions and the brand ''{?\u00bb always been\nthe best. He admits \"The Royal Chef-\nIs the beBt of these from a financial standpoint and is the mode of entertainment\nrelished toy the public. The company has\nbeen enlarged Bince it last appeared here\ntwo weeks ago, and in addition Includes\nEarle B. 'Dewey, Rhoda Greenaugh. and\nAdalalde Mumford. Such musical numbers\nas \"Let Me Go -Back,\" \"O'Reilly,\" \"In\nthe Morning,\" \"Kippanoe.\" \"What's the\n\u25a0Matter With My Man In the Moon, \"As\nBefits My Rank and Station,\" and \"A\nRajah Bold Am I\" are only a few of a\nscore of gems.\nIt Is quite likely that those who witness*\ned the former performance of \"The Royal\nChef\" will pay another visit to the opera\nhouse to see lt again. Those who have\nnot seen It should not miss this last opportunity. Seats are now on sale at Poole's\ndrug store and everything indicates another full house.\nThree splendid reels of flrBt-Tun pictures\nwere shown at the Gem theatre last night.\n\"For Her Father's Honor\" ls the title of\nan Interesting western drama; \"Destiny\"\nIs a strong tragic subject that can't fall\nto interest, and \"Her Generous Way\" ls\none of those \"Imy\" comedy subjects, with\nMiss Marlon Lawrena in the leading role.\nThis program will be shown again tonight.\n\"The Ranchman's Wife\" Ib tbe title of a\nsplendid picture, dealing with western life,\nat the Empire theatre this evening.

April 24\u2014.Under a\ntent on the grassy slope of the Langdon\nplot th.Woodlawn cemetery, with rain\nbeating fiercely against the canvas\ncover, a little group of mourners silently watched today as the hody of Mark\nTwain (Samuel L, Clemens) was lowered into an evergreen lined grave beside his wife and. children.\nThe Rev. Samuel E. Eastman, pastor\nof Park church and a close friend of\nthe late humorist, conducted a brief\nand simple service and Mark Twain's\nfinal pilgrimage was at an end. Tonight\nhe lies sleeping under a grave piled\nhigh with flowers, the tribute oG friends\nfrom far and near.\nTo New York\nREDDING, Conn., April 23\u2014The body\nof Samuel L, Clemens was brought\nfrom his home in Stormfleld today and\nplaced on the train which bore lt to\nNew York. At Stormfleld Mark Twain's\n\u2022body, in Us white garments, had been\nplaced in a mahogany casket. The casket was *heh placer in a box which\nbore the plate \"Samuel Longhorn Cle-\nmonts, Mark Twain, 1910.\" In a coach\nwhich, was presented to Mr. and MrB.\nClemens at the time of their marriage.\nMr, and Mrs. Gabrllowitch took their\nseat. On the driver's box were the son\nof the superintendent of the Clemens\nestate and Mrs. Kate Leary, the housekeeper. In other carriages were the\nservants of the household. As the little procession went over the hills to\nthe railroad station many of the country\npeople along the way gathered to pay\ntheir last respects.\nSimple Services\n. NEW YORK, April 23\u2014Funeral services as simple as was his wholesome\nlife accompanied the tributes paid here\n\u25a0today to Samuel L, Clemens, Mark\nTwain, author, humorist, philosopher\nand citizen of the world. New York\n-city was but a stopping place In the\ndead author's last journey. His body\nwas brought here from Mb home at Redding. Conn., where he died, to be taken\nto ELmlra for burial.\nThe. Ibrick Presbyterian church at\nFifth avenue and 37th street was the\nplace selected for the services at 3\no'clock this afternoon and two close\nfriends of Mr, Clemens were chosen to\nvoice the grief of the throng and speak\nthe eulogies of thousands. This honor\nfell to Rev. Dr. Henry Vandyke, formerly pastor of the brick church and venerable Dr. Joseph H. Twltchell of Hartford. . n\nAlthough the church ls a spacious edifice, seating 1200 persons, lt was by\nn0 means large enough to contain all\nwho desired to see for the last time the\nface of Mark Twain. Four hundred\ncards of Invitation were issued. Following these the doors were to be opened to the general public. After the services, It was announced the opportunity\nwould be given for those outside to enter the church and file past tbe plain\nmahogany coffin containing the body\nof the dead humorist. In keeping with\nthe known sentiments ot Mr. Clemens\non the subject of funeral pomp and\nshow, there was to be no vocal music\nand no pall bearers. Two organ selections, brief prayers and a few words\nof eulogy were to constitute the service. After the services the body was\nto be placed on a train and taken to\nElmlra where a second service as simple as the first, will be conducted Sunday afternoon. The burial will be in\nthe Clemens .plot In Elmlra cemetery\nwhere Mrs. Clemens and the children\nare buried.\nTypical American\nLONDON, April 23\u2014In their editorials on Mark Twain today, the English\npress dwells as much on the nobility\nof his mind and character ae on bis\nprominent qualities as a writer and a\nhumorist.\nThe Dally News remarks that It wns\nonly during the last decade that the\nbigness ofi his personality was fully re*\nvealed.\nThe Saturday Review says he was Irresistibly comic but not a humorist.\nThe Spectator on the other hand\nsay8 the world loses not only an original humorist bnt also a great humorist\nwho never wrote a line that he had\ncause to be ashamed of.\nMany of the newspapers concede that\nTHE STORE\nTHAT SETS\nTHE PACE!\nTHEY say this store sets the pace, and it does.\n\u25a0** Men who want \"the thing\" in Clothes,\nHats and Toggery, come here to get it.\nYou hear it everywhere\u2014\n\"If You Want the Best in Clothes\nGo to Emory & Walley\"\nThe cut of our garments show all\nthe right style features.

S. Baker of Toronto, as -president of the Royal Architectural Institute\nof Canada, has written to Sir Wilfrid\nIj-aurler protesting against the architectural design of the proposed new government block on Sussex street. Ho\nsays:\n\"The design produced by the architectural staff of the department of public works has now ibeen published and\n1 submit, that for its -purpose it is a\ntravesty on good architecture. If It\nwere Intended for a Salvation army barracks or a tobacco factory, this criticism\nmight not be reasonable, but for a\nbuilding to house tlie official departments of the government of an advanced country, I submit the design is absolutely unsuitable and calculated to increase In the minds of cultured persons\nthe Inferiority ofi Canadian art.\"\nOPTIMISM IN ROSSLAND;\nWILDERNESS TO GARDEN\nRossland Miner.\u2014There are many\npeople in Rossland who have little or\nno idea of the excellent work being\ncarried on along tlie Columbia and\nKootenay road. Where, not so very\nlong ago all was wilderness or brush,\nthere are now springing up beautiful\ncultivated lands, giving promise of being exceedingly valuable profit-raaiktng\nproperties in a very few years to come.\nThe outlay represented must be. many\nthousands of dollars, the ultimate value\nIs well nigh incalculable. If there are\npersons In Rossland who believe that\nthe camp is in a state of decadence\nfrom which it can never hope to recover, they should just take a quiet\nsaunter out along the Columbia and\nKootenay road some day when they\nhave an hour or two to spare, and IE\nthey do not return with their ideas\nwonderfuly changed, it will be a matter\nfor surprise. * Those who have taken\nun land out there don't seem to trouble\nover the rumors that are sadly too prevalent. They are looking ahead; they\nare the wise ones; they are preparing\nfor that time when Rossland shall have\nattained a height of prosperity far\nabove anything it. has ever known,\nwhen an abundant harvest will be\n.theirs. To go out along that road Is nn\neducation in what can be done by energetic men in an incredibly short space\nof time. Everybody is enthusiastic and\neverybody is working.
