The\nKusslian commission was proceeding\nto the meeting place, probably on a\nwarship, by the wav of the Black Sea\nand the Bosphorus,\nPershina .to Paris.\nGeneral John J.

There was little opposition, and this was based mainly on\ndoubts as to whether tlie proposition\nwould be adopted.\nIn reply it was pointed out that the\ncontending factions were well nigh at\nthe end of their resources and that\nthoir needs likely would lead them at\nlast to a combined appeal to tlie associated powers.

Its members held a brief\nmeeting at the Mansion house this afternoon, but behind closed doors. Afterwards Count Plunkett told the reporters that a statement of the bus!-'\nnbss transacted would bo furnished to'\nthe prets later, thus following the;\nprecedent of tho Paris conference. A:\ngroup of a hundred young men gath-;\nered outside during tho secret session,\nbut no excitement of any kind was\nshown. The .public was far more interested today in the murder of two\npolicemen in Tipperary yesterday at\nthe time the parliament was meeting.\nTiii;s is taken to signify the beginning\nof a new period of terrorism, which\nveteran Ir'sh politicians expect will\ninclude assassinations and attempts to\ndestroy eovernment buildings and\npublic works.\nPolice Guard Explosives.\nTwo policemen were guarding a\ncartload of explosives which was being taken to a mine when they were\nsurrounded by masked men. Tho policemen were shot dead and the explosives carried off. The immediate sequel was a proclamation placing Tipperary under the Crimes act, which\nmeans a regime like that of the occupied German territories. All meetings\nare prohibited and nobody can pass in\nor out of the district without permission. Nono of the residents may be\noutdoors after 7 o'clock in the evening without a permit. No letters may\npass in or out without censorship.\nEnough troops were quickly sent into\nthe  district  to  enforce these  regula\ntlons.\nThe Clair district was recently proclaimed under the Crimes act and the\nmeasure was enforced with apparent\nsuccess.\nEmpty Beating of Air\nComments of the Irish pnpers on the\nparliament are to the effect that it\nwas an empty beating of air and that\nUs special purposo was to attract the\nattention of the world, particularly of\nthe peace conference, to the Sinn Fein\ners' case. In tho opinion of the papers\nmost Dublin people believe the Sinri\nFeiners expected and .desired the con\ngress to be supprcsed by the police or\nthe military.\nThe gist of the newspaper comment\nis that If Count Plunkett presents the\nSinn Feiners' declaration on Irish In\ndependence the peaco conference will\nmerely put it in the archives without\ndiscussion under the rules adopted permitting anyone to present petitions.\nTho Irish censorship prevented the\nappearance of the Sinn Fein's decollation of independence in the Dublin\npapers. Without interference, the Lord\nMayor of Dublin, Lawrence O'Neil,\nhaving obtained passports from the\ngovernment, will proceed to Paris to\ntender lo President Wilson the free\ndom of the city of Dublin, recently\nvoled by the corporation.\n24 Deputies Attend.\nDUBLIN, Jan. 22.\u2014The parliament,\nheld a private session today.

Not only does it\ndeal at length with the business of the Bank during the past year,, which\nhas been a most successful one for the institution, but it indicates the view\ntaken of Canada's prospects by one of her leading bankers.   Sir John said:\nFor the first time since January,\n1914, we meet without the sinister\nshadow of the great war upon us.\nDifficult as Is the outlook before many\nof the warring nations and perplexing\nas are the problems for which a-solu-\ntion has to be found before a .satisfactory peace can be concluded, jiostil-\nIties 'have ceased ami cannot be re-\nhewed on the same colossal scale. We\nrejoice that-the sacrifice of'life, has\ncomo tp an end and that those members of our staff at the front who\nhave survivedthe conflict, and others\nwho aro near and dear to many of us,\ncan now |qqk forward witli assurance\nto the welcome' that awaits them at\ntheir home-coming. The past year has\nbeen pleasurably ^marked \"by the jubilees of both our'-President and Vice-\nPresident In their respective callings.\nWe have, therefore,, many reasons for\na feeling of jubilation on this occasion, and this Is added to by the excellence of the statement which we\nhave pleasure in presenting to you.\nAn Excellent Statement\nThe earnings of the Bank havo been\ngood, and the profits have again\nreached a new high level, amounting\nto $2,S5O,00O, or $212,000 more than a\nyear ago. Wo'qonfess to a feeling of\npride that wo have been able to main\ntain the premier place among Canadian banks in this, to you, important\nItem. Notwithstanding the apparent\nsiM> of the figure.'., however, it must\nnot be forgotten that the rate of earnings of this Bank, ns of Canadian\nblinks In genera', is stendily decreas\ning, when measured by the services\nrendered apd the extent of the effort\nput forth by our staff. On the average\nof our total assets during the year wo\nhave earned only 7-10ths of one per\ncent., as compared1 with 1.27 per cent.\nin 1913, the last year prior to the war,\nand 1.37 per cent, ten years ago.\nIncreased Service\nThe main causes ot this, as I have\npointed out In previous years, are, on\nthe one hand, the enormous Increase in\ntlie volume of those banking services\nwhich are perf&rmed for the public\nwithout remuneration, and tho fact\nthat banking is one of the few businesses'in\" which charges are sometimes lowered but seldom increased,\nIn spite of the general increase in tho\ncost of everything else; and on tho\nother, the Increases In salaries and\nwages which are inevitable to enable\nour men to meqt the great increase In\nthe cost of living. It must not be forgotten that salaries and wages constitute the most formidable Item of\nexpense In the budget of a bank and It\nwill readily be- understood that tbo\nresponsibilities and the difficulties of\ndealing fairly with the members of our\nstaff, in view of the high level of the\ncost of living, are not small.\nDepreciation Unnecessary\nAn unusual Item in our profit and\nloss aqcount this year, which affords\nus much' gratification, is tho recovery\nof tlje appropriation of $1,000,000 set\nnslde in the year 1915 to provide for\nthe depreciation of securities. Wo\nthen expressed the hope of saving this,\nor at .Vast a port of it, at the end of\nthe war -and it is a source of satisfaction to find our prediction fulfilled.\nOh the other side of the account, our\ndisbursements In the way of dividends\nand bonuses lo shareholders, and tho\namount's required to pay the special\nwar tax on bank note circulation and\nfor the officers'.pension fund, ure tho\nsame as a ybar -ago. Subscriptions to\nVarious funds of a patriotic nature,\nalmost all of them the direct outcome\nof the war, .have called for $102,550.\n'\" A War Memorial\nWe have set aside $100,000 to defray\nthe cost of a immortal we propose to\nraise in honor of the officers of thu\nbank who served In tho grent war,\nand for t|io cpst'of tho history of the\nbank to which I referred a year ago\nThe form of the. memorial Is not yet\ndecided, but It. will probably tnkc\nshape when we come to erect a new\nbuilding on our site here, an undertaking'which cannot long be delayed\nIf the natural,development of the business'or trio Wink Is nol to be hindered\nby cramped and unsuitable quarters.\nAfter doing all this, we have boon able\nto transfer $1,500,000 to rest account,\nwhich thus becomes equal to the paid-\nup capital, a Aal which we have aimed\nto reach for many a duy, but which\nhus called for long years of tireless\nstriving, before wo could consider It\nas fairly woii. Wq.njlffht perhaps have\nmade a better showlnff nn the surface\nand have seemed to reach our goal In\na shorter .period of t|me, but our wish\nhas been to bwOd BipMy and carefully\nupon u firm 'foiro.diii.ui., and in tbe\nmeantime to provide beyond peradven-\nture for every weak spot in our loans\nand securities. Wo carry forward into\nthe new financial year an undivided\nbalance of profits amounting to $1,-\n444,842, or $112,000 more than a year\nago. '\nNote Circulation\nTurning now to the General Statement, the first item of our liabilities\nIs notes in circulation. These amount\nto the very large sum of $3\"1,583.000,\nor $7,588,000 more than a year ago.\nThis Increase is not far from double\nthe largo increase reported last year,\nbut we think that the reasons advanced for It then still hold good, although it is possible that in addition\nthere may be a certain amount of\nhoarding by a class of munition-workers who adhere to old habits, and hide\ntheir savings rather than entrust them\nto the care of a bank. If so, this cause\nshould soon cease to operate, and we\nshall watch with much interest tho\ncourso of the note \"circulation during\nthe next few months, in which the\ngreatest amount of contraction always\ntakes place each. year.\nIncreased  Deposits\nThe Increase in our total deposits is\n$76,733,000, or 27.7 per cent., and tho\ngreater pari of this is under the heading of deposits not bearing interest,\nwhich account for $64,552,000. Deposits bearing interest show an increase of $12,181,000, an amount which\nwould have beep much greater had it\nnot been for the Victory Loan of 1918.\nIf we turn to the monthly statements\nto the Government we shall find that\ndeposits payable after notice dropped\n$18,853,000 during November, whicli is\nsolely due to the Victory Loan. On\nthe other hand, it must be remembered\nthat under the arrangements made by\nthe Government for the deposit of tho\nproceeds of tho Victory Loan with the\nbanks from which the money was\nwithdrawn, a large part of this money\nis still at tho credit of the Dominion\nGovernment, subject to its requirements.\nHow to Save\nOnco again the Minister of Finance\nand the organization which controlled\nthe Victory loan campaigns have won\nan outstanding success. The Victory\nLoan of 1918 was over-subscribed\nmany times, and without the use of\nany compulsion save tho mere breath\nof public opinion tiie Government has\nbeen provided with more than the sum\nwhicli it required. Yet, as I pointed\nout last year, the lesson In how to\nsave, so strongly Impressed upon tho\ncommunity by these campaigns, is\ntheir great result from the national\npoint of view. Who may venture to\npredict what lho knowledge thus acquired of how to Invest savings wisely\nmay mean to Canada In the years to\ncome? Excopt for the increase In the\nproductive capacity of the country,\nthis Is perhaps the greatest material\nbenefit derived from tho war. Alongside it the loss of a fow millions of\ndeposits to Individual banks is n very\nsmall mutter, which, If Ihe lesson Is\nthoroughly learnt, will require only a\nshort period of time to remedy itself.\nBank   Helped   Loan\nOur efforts to assist the Minister of\nFinance in obtaining subscript.ops lo\nthe Loan bave resulted In our securing through this bank the largo sum\nof $104,543,000, represented by 150,773\nindividual subscriptions. This amount\nincluded $100,000,000 of pew money\nand represents 15 per cent of the\ntotal. It is gratifying to know that\nwe have *tnv \"exceeded the proportion\nwhich might bo reasonably expected\nfrom us. This result has not been obtained without very strenuous efforts\non the part of our staff, ami also the\nexpenditure of a largo amount of\nmoney by the bank. Unfortunately\nthe heo,vy tusk came upon our staff\njust at the moment when their ranks\nwere deplote'd by the ravages of influenza. In connection with this, ns well\nas previous loans, wo shall also be required to perform for the government\nspecial services, such as tho payment\nof coupons and Intorest during tho\nterms of tho loaps, the last uf which\ndocs not mature until tho year 1937.\nThe Canadian banks were al8o called\nupon durlnfc tho year to assist in the\nDominion government financing to a\nlargo amount, and we assumed our full\nshare of these advances. In addition,\nwo participated in a loan of $100,000,-\n000 to the Imperial govornmont\nuguinst Treasury Hills and renewed\nthe advances mado against similar\nsecurity to the Imperial Munitions\nBoard.\nFinance Foo<J Supplies\nAcceptances'under'Loiters of Credit,\noffset in our balance sheet by the corresponding liability of our customers\nwhich appears nmong the assets, show\na large increase, represented by advances in Canada and the United\nStates, secured in nearly every case\nby food supplies purchased for account\nof the allies. Cash on band, consisting of gold and silver coin and Dominion notes, amounts to $61,971,000,\nas compared with $54,652,000 a year\nago, an Increase of $7,319,000. Of this,\nwe had $17,600,000 in the Central Gold\nReserves, to provide cover for our excess note circulation. Our total holdings of gold and silver coin\u2014principally gold, but including the necessary silver for the tills of the branches\n\u2014are slightly lower than a year ago.\nWe hold, however, a much larger\namount In Canada, in tho carrying\nout of the views I expressed last year\nin referring to this subject.\nMaintain Gold Standard\nj This was not. accomplished without\ndifficulty, owing to the embargo placed\non exports of gold by tbe United States\ngovernment and to the demands of\nthat government; and the effort to increase our holdings has been further\nhampered by the decline in the output\nof tho Canadian mines caused by the\npresent high cost of production. It is\ngratifying to find a substantial agreement with our views on this subject\nin the report of the Imperial \"Committee on Currency and Foreign Exchanges after the War,\" of which\nLord Cunliffe, Governor of the Bank\nof England, was chairman. In Its first\ninterim report this committee has emphasized the imperative need that the\ngold standard should be effectively\nmaintained in Great Britain, and that\nthe necessary measures to this end\nshould l)e taken without delay. Similar measures arc being urged in tho\nUnited States by a not unlnfluentlal\nsection of the press, and it Is disquieting to hear a discordant noto sounded\nin certain influential financial circles\nin this country. We think that tho\ngovernment could well afford to pay\na small royalty to encourage an increase in the production of the gold\nmines of Canada. The conditions of\nthe last two years havo very adversely\naffected the mining- of gold, especially\nas compared with silver, and in tlio\nInterests of the country we believe\nthat the government should seriously\nconsider some plan for plaplng this industry ou a profitable footing.\nLarge Volume of Transaction\nThe next item of the assets, consisting of notes and cheeks and balances\ndue by other bonks, shows an Increase\nof $3.S30,000, almost all of which Is\nmade up of larger holdings of checks\non other banks, which constitute the\ndaily exchanges. This increase is duo\nsolely to an increased volume of current banking transactions. Securities\nof various kinds have increased $lti,-\n183,000, represented principally by\nlarger holdings of British and Canadian government securities. On thu\nother hand, railway and miscellaneous\nsecurities have decreased slightly. Call\nand short loans show an increase of\n$S,324,O00, Of which the greater part\nIs in loans outside Canada, and immediately available assets are $35,082,-\n000 greater, standing at about 50 per\ncent of our liabilities to the public.\nCommercial loans show an increase of\n$52,021,000, nearly all of which is lent\nin Canada. While there Is no doubt a\ngood deal of activity in such manufacturing as can be carried on tinder\nthe circumstances of tho past few\nmonths, a large part of this increase\nis due to high prices and to delay in\nrealizing on our wheat and other produce, whicli has been reserved by the\ngovernment. The delay in this connection, while no doubt largely inevitable under existing conditions, has a\nprejudicial effect on those immediately\nconcerned. With the passing of the\nera of high prices, especially those of\nfarm produce, and a return of wages\nto a more normal level than that of\nmunition making, we must expect to\nseo decreases in the volume of both\nour loans and deposits. Indeed, It will\nhot be surprising If the figures of the\npresent balance sheet are not exceeded\nfor several years to come.\nTotal assets have increased $95,935,-\n000, and now amount to the very large\nsum of $440,310,000. This increase is\n27.8 per cent, over the figures of last\nyear a remarkable showing when It is\nrecalled that wo have been marking\ntime in the opening of new branches,\nand that we have not taken over tlio\nbuslnoss of any other bank.\nReinstate Returned Men\nWith regard to the staff, It Is our\ndesire to reinstate all officers who\nwish to come back j,o our service from\npillltary duly, ami iit lho samo time\nto avoid nny hardship which might bo\ncreated by dispensing With the services of the members of the temporary\nstaff, who have filled the broach so\nacceptably during the past four years.\nWith sorrow we record the death in\naction .of eighty-five additional members of our staff during tho past year,\nmaking a total or 22C who have been\nk|Iled In action, or have d led of\nwounds, since the outbreak of the war.\nThe number of wounded men reported\nto us has now renched 2Q4; seven are\nstill recorded as missing and 23 as in\nthe prison camps, tinder the terms ot\ntlio armistice wo trust that tlpse prisoners have  now  been tiucuessful iu\nreaching allied or neutral countries.\nIncrease  Export  Trade\nA year ago I urged the importance\nto Canada of stimulating the production and export of food, the need, of\norganization for the purpose and the\nattractiveness of the outlook for this\nbranch of commerce. The ending of\nthe war has in no wise dimmed. tbe\nprospect. The last number of the\nAgricultural Gazette, the official publication of the Dominion Department of\nAgriculture, contains an appeal from\nthe Dominion government along similar lines, and particularly emphasizes\nthe bright prospects of the meat export trade. Speaking of the outlook\nbefore this; country now that the war\nhas ended, the Minister of Finance,\nSir Thomas White, writes: \"There\nwould seem no reason to apprehend\nany failure of markets for all the food\nthat Canada can produce. Our grain,\nlive stock, nnd their products, with\nthose of our fisheries, should all be in\nkeen demand at high prices. . . Increase in our agricultural production\nwill not only help to furnish food for\na hungry Europe, but will be a chief;\nfactor In maintaining our favorable\ninternational trade balance as well.\"\nAll countries are seeking to increase\ntheir export trade; all are hoping to\nbe sellers nnd to limit their purchases.\nUnder such conditions, the successful\nones will be those which have special\nadvantages for a certain line of production and which can find a market\nfor the same line of goods. Is there\nany country better fitted than Canada\nfor the production of food, or any\nbranch of commerce in which an ample\nmarket is more assured?\nSane Spending\nAny number of pluns are afloat for\nthe carrying on of large public works\nafter tho war. These are advocated on\nall sides in the hope that the era of\nfree spending may .tide over that, of\nfalling prices. Few of the promoters,\nhowever, appear to have considered\nwhere tho money is to come from. By\nall moans let a wise and statesmanllko\nview of the matter prevail, and all\npublic works be undertaken which are\nin the best interests of the community,\nhaving regard to all aspects of tho\nquestion. But let it not be forgotten\nthat such works have to be paid for\nsooner or later out of the taxes, and\nthe hope of every citizen at the present moment, I may safely say, is to see\nhis tax bills reduced rather than largely increased. Even public borrowing\ncannot indefinitely postpone tho evil\nday of payment.\nReconstruct With Savings\nSome of our municipalities are already hampered by the load of debt\nincurred in former eras of prosperity, ami no one would advocate any\nconsiderable increase at this tlmo\nin the national debt of the Dominion.\nThe safe course is wisely set out in\nthe Cunliffe report, to which I havo\nalready referred. Aftor speaking of\nthe pressure that is sure to be brought\nto bear upon tho state for capital expenditure in many forms for\nreconstruction purposes, it points out\nthat all money expended on reconstruction work should come out of savings\nand not he obtained by the creation\nof new credit. The burden of prevailing high interest rates in the case of\nsuch works lias also to be considered,\nand a Ithough the outlook as to tho\nvalue of money after the war is uncertain, it seems probable that current\nrates in Englund are held below tho\nnatural level at present by war-time\nregulations, and that when these restrictions are removed, rates may tend\nupward rather than downward. It is\nclear that the importance of saving\nand economy in personal expenditures\nas a public duty will not be lessened\nby the ending of the war, but, if possible, increased.\nIt is interesting to note that tho\nLondon Statist is of tho opinion that\nafter the war Canada will provo moro\nattractive to emigrants than the\nUnited Stales, and that thus the drain\nupon the manpower of this eountry\nmade by the war will be more than\nremedied.\nThe   Future\nAs to the future, we feel that we can\nlook forward with quiet confidence*\nTho multifarious restrictions which\nhave necessarily been placed on business during the war will doubtless disappear before long, and they should\nbo removed by the government as\nspeedily as possible. This will aid in\nlessening unemployment at home, and\nenable our exporters to resume thelr\noperations iu otl*.;r countries beforo\nthe field is occupied. Attention should\nalso be given to tho prompt settlement\nof all outstanding contracts and obligations of tlie government, and tq ti|o\nclaims arising out of the cancellation\nof contracts. These are sometimes\nallowed to drug, causing great injustice to Individuals and corporations,\nand preventing them from resuming\nthoir accustomed place In the peace\nactivities of the nation. By prompt\nattention to such matters the government can assist materially In the.\nrestoration of a normal state of affairs.\nIn the business world. We have beei^\nfortunuto in this country in that our\nparticipation In the war has not Involved material damage at home. Our\nefforts have entailed no exhaustion on\nour part, and white the problems before us are many and difficult, we be*\nlleve that a satisfactory solution wll_|\nbe fouud for ull oi ihenu\n m\n*\u2022>\u25a0\u2022\n9A0E POUR\nf THE DAILY NEWS\nTHUR80AV, JANUARY JJf  fflffl ;>1\nTHE DAILY NEWS\nJyi.   .1 >W*^#\u00bb** iNXM*..**.......***...,..*.*.*.\nPublished every morning except\nBanday by .The News Publishing Com-\npariy, Limited, Nelson; B.C., Canada.\n, Badness letters should be addressed\nand checks and money, orders made\npayable io The News Publishing Company, Limited; and in no ease to Individual members ot the staff.\nAdvertising rate cards and sworn\ndetailed statement lot circulation\nmailed im request or may be seen at\nths office ot any advertising agency\nrecognised by the Canadian Press Association.\nSubscription Bates: By mall 50 cents\nyer month; 12.50 for six months; $5\nfer year.

It sounds like\ngross exaggeration. Yet the estimate\ncomes from no less authoritative a\nsource than the man who long was\nthe chief entomologist of northern\nRhodesia.

Perfect quiet on h|s\npart Is requisite: ti he lies still the\nants don't chew him, but devour the\ncooties* If he doesn't, the experiment\nIs fraught with danger to life.\nIn this connection the Medicine Hat\nNews remarks that the freedom ot the\nAmerican army from disease while in\nThat the future of Canada's trade\nand commerce largely depends upon\n.he character of its banking instltu-\n.ions there can be no doubt. Aside\naltogether from the general service\nthey render to the interchange and\n.'acllltatlng of business, much of which\na gratuitous, they provide, in the shape\nof loans, the necessary temportry accommodation without which the manufacturers and merchants would often\n>e seriously handicapped in many of\nheir enterprises. When one considers\nthat the chartered banks of the Dominion have out about a b.ll on dol.ars\n'n the shape of commercial loans one\nbegins to get some conception of the\nenormous proportions these Institutions\naro to the industrial llfo of the coun-\ntry.\nAmong the score of banks which\nCanada possesses none has been more\nready ond willing to lend Its resources\nfor the development of sound industrial\nand commercial enterprises than the\nCanadian Bank of Commerve. Only a\nfew days ago a group of financial and\nbusiness men wero discussing the part\nthat the various large bnnks had p\\ .y-\ned In lending their aid to the dovelop\nment of the Industrial resources of the\nDominion, and the unanimous decision\nwas that the Canadian Bank of Commerce had led all others in this respect. As one man in the group remarked, \"It Is aptly named the Canadian Bank of Commerce.\"\nBank's Commercial Loans\nThat the Bank of Commerce is taking an increasingly important position\nin relation to the tlevelopment of tho\nindustrial life of tho Dominion is evident from the statistics furbished by\ntho general manager of the institution, Sir John Aird, in the report which\nhe submitted at the annual meeting\nof the shareholders held in Toronto.\nThese show that in the commercial\nloans of the bank there was, as compared with a year ago, an Increase of\nJ6-.621.000, and nearly the whole of\nthis was lent In Canada. In call and\nshort loans there was an increase of\n\u00bb3,S2.,00.. '\nBut In addition to the financial assistance it directly rendered to the business interests of the country, it directly extended further aid to the same\nInterests by the money it advanced\nduring the year to the Dominion and\nImperial governments, the funds thus\napplied ultimately finding their way\ninto the pockets of the manufacturer\nand farmers of the country.\nStrong Financial Position\nThat a bank's ability to render assistance to the industrial developments of the country is determined by\nIts financial strength, no matter how\nwilling it may be, is an, indispensable\ntruism. As far as'the Canadian Bank\nof Commerce is concerned that question\nis settled by the curont annual report\nby Sir John Aird, showing as it does\nthat there has been a strengthening of\nthe bank's position as well as an extension of its business.\nIn spite of the fact that the Bank\nof Commerce, os with Canadian banks\n(reenrally, Is experiencing a decrease\nin the percentages ot its! earnings as\ncompared with Its,assets, its profits\not $2,650,000 for 1918 were not only an\nIncrease on those of the prevlos year\nby 1212,000. but were larger In amount\nthan anything in the history of the\nbank. As a result of the profItab'e\nyear experienced the bank is able to\ncarry forward into the new financial\nyear an undivided balance bf prof'ts\namounting   to, $1,444,842,   Or   $112,000\nmore than a year ago.\nGratifying Features\nThere are two points broughts out In\nSir John Alrd's report which will undoubtedly be particularly gratifying\nto the shareholders. Tho ono is that\ntho management has during the year\nbeen ablo to add $1,600,000 to tho rest\naccount and thus realize its ambition\nof bringing this account up to an\nequality with the paid-up-capital a\nconsummation due to the skill of those\nin command of the bank's affairs. The\nother is what the general manager describes as \"an unusual item in our\nprofits and loss account.\" In brief it is\nnothing less than the fact that the\nbank has been able to recover the appropriation of $1,000,000 set aside in\n1915 to provide for .the depreciation of\nsecurities. This is partlclarly gratifying when it Is recalled that, at the time\nthe amount was writen off, the best\nthe management hoped for was that\na the close of the war at least a part\nof tt might be recovered.\nGrowth in Assets\nThe growth ln the bank's assets dur-\n'ng the year has been must substantial.\nThe total now stands nt $440,510,000.\nan appreciation of $96,955,000, or at\nthe rate of $27.9 per cent. \"A remarkable Bhowing,\" as tho geenral manager\naptly remarks, \"when it Is recalled that\nwe have been marking tlmo in the opening of new branches and tha twe\nhave not taken over the business of\nany other bank.\"\nAs to Canada's future, the general\nmanager of the bank was quite optimistic ln his remarks, but holds that\n\"the multifarious restrlct'ons which\nhave necessarily been placed on business during the war'! should be removed by the government aB speedily\nas possible.\nTEN YEARS AGO TODAY\nI        FOOD   BOARD' FLASHES\nIn the course of his survey of food\nconditions In Europe Mr. Hoover\nmakes the statement that, thanks to\nthe efforts of the allied countlres, there\nhas been no actual loss of life by star\nvatlon among the ten million people of\nBelgium and* Northern France. Poland\nand Serbia, on the other hand, have\nlost one-fourth of their people through\nstarvation.\n\"My survey of the rest of Europe\u2014\nthe Baltic states and Poland\u2014is not\ncomplete,\" says Mr. Hoover, \"but sufficient evidence Is at hand to show\nthat before next harvest relief of an\nunprecedented character must be extended if the remaining population Is\nto be maintained in any semblance of\nhealth, and it is almost inevitable that\nour people will be called!

The prico of rubber at present seems very low, since\nthe market is so greatly restricted becauso of the war, but It is expected\nwhen normal conditions are restored\nthat this will become a profitable industry in theso islands, whero labor is\ncomparatively cheap,\n'Bride Slapped Husband; His Mother\nTook Him Home.\"\u2014Another touching\nheadline.\nI'll now oblige by warbling \"She\nDidn't Raise\" Her Boy to be an Average\nHusband.\"\nIn the glorious feast of knowledge\n\u25a0me people never get any farther than\ntne soiipj\nSCARCE IN PARIS\nSome   sleep   in.

By\nthe end of November bathrooms were\nbeing used as sleeping quarters. Dusty\nstorerooms were opened up, cot thrown\nagainst the wall and $3 a day collected for such sleeping accommodations. Restaurants and cafes are always crowded to capacity during lunch\nand dinner hours, with food prices\nsteadily mounting.\nReasons for Shortage\nOne of tho reasons for the shortage\nof botel space is the requisitioning of\nseveral of them by various governments. In war time when a government wants anything all it has to do Is\ngo get it. Therefore, when the Americans wanted a complete hotel ln which\nto house the peaco delegates and their\nparties they just toid the French\nabout it. The Fronch then requisitioned the Hotel Crlllon on the Place\nConcorde, and everybody there had to\nmove.\nTho Hotel de Coilsin, adjoining,\nwhich has been used by the Red Cross,\nalso was taken over toy the Americans. The solid block along the Place\nConcorde, running from tbe Rue Roy-\nale, is consequently a real bit of America now put down In France.\nThe Hotel Mem-ice, a fwe blocks up\ntho Rue Rlvoii, also is much American.\nAs a matter of fact, there are few\nhotels, except those requisitioned by\nother governments, that do not have\na strong American tone.\nBritish  Headquarters\nThe Hotel Majestic Is tho British\nmission headquarters, Tho Hotel Astoria also was requisitioned by the\nBritish.\nThe Belgians occupy the Hotel Lu-\ntetla, on the left bank of tho Seine.\n\u2022 In the meantime all tbe large hotels\nare turning away from 200 to 300 prospective guests dally, duo to lack of accommodations. American officers In\nParis on leave frequently spend most\nof their first night In town dashing\nabout In a taxlcab trying to find a\nplace to sleep,\nIt is expected that most of tho work\nIn connection with the Inter-allied conferenco and peace conferenco will toe\ndon In Pnris proper,   Tho tnter-alllcd\nsession will go down in history as the\n\"Versailles conference,\" doubtless, but\nthe meetings at Versailles will bo more\nof a \"dress parade\" nature. The real\nwork will be done at the various headquarters in Paris. After decisions are\nreached the delegates will go to Versailles for a formal sitting of ratification. ,,:\nGIVING  HIM  THE  LAUGH\nHe Bangrily)\u2014I wash my hands of\nyou forever.\nShe (cooly)\u2014And let mo suggest,\nGeorge, that you also manicure your\nfinger nails.\nSick Headache\nand Constipation\nMILBURN'S\nCured by\nLAXA-LIVER\nPIIXS.\nFURS\nGuaranteed high-class furs, nice\nselection kept In stock or made to\norder from selected skins.

The convention Wednes\nday night took up the platform as a\nclosing item of business and it appear\ned for the moment that a resolution\nproposed by Delegate Hinckley and\nseconded in a score of places was going to \"swallow whole,\" as President\nWood expressed it, the platform of the\nCanadian council of agriculture. But\nA. Brown confessed that the platform\nwas not all that he expected and desired in the way of reform. He demanded that inasmuch as wheat is a\nbasis of farm crop production and\nprices and in view of the millions that\nhave been' made in the manipulation\nof the wheat markets of the world,\nthat the farmers should stand for\nregulation of the disposal of wheat.\nIt was done to save the world from\nstarvation during the war.

C.\nDuring last season approximately 21\ntons of extracted honey was produced\nat Kootenay Lake points. It was valued at $14,700 at a prlge of SB cents a\npound. Creston produced the most, reporting eight tons during the season.\nNelson produced between two and\nthree tons.\nThe following article from the department of agriculture gives tho history of the growth of the honey industry in British Columbia.\nFrom reports provided by the beekeepers of the province the honey crop\nof British Columbia for the season of\n1918 Is estimated to be approximately\n225 tons, being an increase of 65 tons\nover that of 1917 and by far tho biggest In her history. For years the bee\ninspectors have estimated the total annual honey consumption of British Columbia to be a little over 200 tons, so\nthat Cor the first tlmo production will\nbalance consumption, and thero will be\nno need for tho importation of this delightful sweet from any other countries. Just before the panic of 1914\ncustom-house statistics indicated an\ninnual Inmportatlon of 200 tons of\nhoney into British Columbia, but year\nby year as her own honey production\nIncreased importations just as steadily\ndeclined. In 1917 60 tons were Imported. On accbuiit of the war, exportation from the United States, our\nchief source of supply, was forbidden,\nbut the increase of 60 tons in the\nprovince in 1918 just balanced what\nwould otherwise have been a deficit.\nTho story of tho development of the\nbee industry in British Columbia is\nrathr an interesting ono and is worth\nrecording, as ft plainly exemplifies the\nvaluo of education in the agricultural\nfield. The honey-bee wns first Introduced Into the mainland ln tho year\n1869 by Col. Moody. He imported from\nOlympia, Wash., two schooner loads\nof cattle on his ranch at Mud Bay and\nbrought along at the same timo fivo\ncolonies of bees which were set down\nwhore tho village of Elgin now stands.'\nTho bees were neglected, but their des-\nendants took possssion of the hollow\ncedar trc.es, and in a few years the\ntimber lands for scores of miles were\nfull of wild bees. Hero and thero\nswarms were captured nnd housed,\nmostly in boxes,\nBee Inspections\nTn 1911 at the urgent request of tho\nfruit growers of the province tho department of agriculture appointed two\nboe inspectors, Mr. h, Harris of Vernon and Mr. F. Dundos Todd of Victoria, whoso duty it was to watch for\ntho appearance of foul brood, which\nhas quite a hold on this continent, and\nwhich was spreading rapidly in the\nState of Washington. As fruit trees\nare chiefly pollinated by the honey\nbeo It is important lhat this scourge\nshall be combntted, as it will soon exterminate most of tho bees in a district where it guins a foothold.\nOn their appointment one of the inspectors remarked to the then deputy\nminister of agriculture, Mr. Wm. E,\nScott, that the inspectors would probably earn their money in honey. On\ntaking the field ln 1911 the.two ln-\nspectoys met- aud each resolved that y\ni while education was no part of their\nduty according to instructions then\ngiven, they would nevertheless help\nI each beekeeper as far as possible. Mr\nj W. J. Sheppard of Neiaon joined the\nstaff later and has worked hard to\nfurther tho same policy.\nThe first season's work Indicated\nthat there were probably less than 300\npeople in the province interested in\nbeekeeping, all in a very small way\nand working with very crude methods. The land boom was on, nobody\nwas much interested in production of\nciiy kind, the one aim'of almost every\nrancher was to sell his land at $300 an\naero, retire to Shaughhessy Heights\nand live happily ever after. For\ntilts- seasons tlio inspectors labored\nundtr discouraging conditions, but\nnever for one moment did they doubt\nis to. the outcome, in fact, they were\nig-(td that in seven years the two\nends, production and consumption,\nwould meet If they just tried hard\nenough. The tide turned in 1913, when\ntho young men on the ranches took\nthe problem in hand and introduced\nmodern methods into the homo apiary,\nmoid than doubling the annual crop,\nraising it to 50 tons. The outlook was\nrosy, in fact, the inspectors felt confident that 1915 would see the attainment of the objective, but the advent,\nof the great war brought- ready response from the young mon on the\nranch, so in 1916 tlie honey crop of\nBritish Columbia fell to 100 tons.

A few still remain who\ndo honor to their positions becauso\nthey have tho right views of kingship\nand regard themselves as symbols of\nauthority rather than as rulers by\ndivine right, and who recognize that\ntheir rule is derived from the people.\nAmong, these are Albert of Belgium,\nwho has returned to his capital amid\nremarkable manifestations) of affection and loyalty, and George of England\u2014or Windsor, as he has elected to\ncall himself in order to divest the\nBritish throne of any of Its previous\nGorman associations.\nKing George's reply to tho leaders\nof his Empire on tho occasion of his\nreception of addresses passed by both\nhouses of parliament was a model of\nwhat such n speech ought to be. There\nwas no vain-glorious boasting about\n\u2022'my army\" and \"my navy\" and \"my\npeople,\" though he gave to all three\nthe tributes' that are their due. It\nwas a messago of gratitude to all who\nhad so valiantly fought to secure their\nown rights and liberties and those of\nthe world. The kings tribute to the\nrepresentatives of India and tho overseas dominions was Indeed well merited, Britain and its king have reason\nto be both proud of and grateful to\nthe men of the far-flung empire who\nvoluntarily gathered together from the,\nfour corners of the earth and fought\nwith magnificent valor against the\nforces of evil and brutality so formidably arrayed agUinst them.

The airplane lends itself\nperfectly to the predatory instincts of\nthe Hun. With a,flock of commercial\npian.es, all readily convertible into\nbombing and fighting machines, and\nwith a million tons of poison gases\nstored in underground factories, Germany could catch the world in an ambuscade that would \"gloriously\" wipe\nout the disgrace of this defeat, and\nwithin a few days put the Teuton into\npossession of the earth.\nIf the Hun could have begun his\nwar In 1914 with the machinery he\nhad in 1918 no power on earth could\nhave held him back from his monstrous purpose.
