Iv      v>  CJRF.ST  Vol. VIII.  CRESTON, B. C, FRIDAY, JUNE 23, J916  No. 23  $4,000 Needed to  Finance Schools  Trustee Hurry was the only absentee  from the June meeting of the school  hoard, which was held on Tuesday.  The chief item pf business was the  estimates for the ensuing year and  after a careful delving into the requirements for the ensuing twelve  months it was decided to ask ihe ratepayers at the annual meeting next  month to sanction the raising of 84,000  for school purposes. $3,000 was voted  at the 1915 meeting, but though the  trustees have financed down to rock  .bottom in every possible detail that  sum has - been found insufficient,  particularly under the present system  of colleeting the taxes. Within the  coming twelve months, too, certain  fixed charges that did not crop up the  past year have to be provided for  which renders $3,000 altogether inadequate.  There   were a number  of applications for the vacancy caused through  Mr,   Macedo's removal,   bnt    as   the  matter of engaging a staff for  next  year devolves upon  the new  trustees  n.o action whatever was   taken in this  . matter.    It is more   than  likely  the  ratepayers   at   the annual  gathering  will be asked to amend  the old order  of things which fixes the salary  to be  paid each  teaches*.    It is thought   a  better plan would be to have the meet'  ing set the maximum salaay but leave  it to the discretion of the trustees as  to whether   the previous experience  of the teacher to be engaged entitled  him or her to receive-the fa>l monthly  stipend sanctioned by the ratepayers.  Under the old system a salary was set  that   would  attract  an   experienced  teacher, but   in case a beginner was  engaged there was provision   to  pay  beginners* salary.    If the new suggestion   was adopted a more equitable  distribution of salaries should result  and at no higher-eost to the district.  The board was unsuccessful in its  effort to have a complete assessment  roll for the district prepared. Mr.  Jarvis, the assessor, was in Creston a  few weeks ago and discussed the matter with Trustee Jackson. Uuder the  act the roll need not be filled out in  all details. The roll as at first submitted seems to meet all the require-  inentsof the rural school law and Mr.  Jarvis quite firmly and politely refused to oblige as requested. However, he. did oblige to the extent of  filling in the names of those in arrears  for taxes, and the amounts overdue.  so as to be able to select a good site  for his annual fishing holiday camp.  Mr. Hyes of the C.P,R. staff was in  the city last week looking for more  posts. Looks as if posts were on the  short order this spring.  J.\" E. Miller had the Payette shack  moved on to the back of his lot and is  using it for a barn.  Messrs, Hayden and Stocks of 'Cres-  ton came in on Saturday from a bear  hunt. They report seeing a couple  but were unable to land the quarry.  Messrs. Johnson and Benson spent  Sunday with friends in the city of  Yahk.  A. Matheson of Creston is here having secured a job with G. A. Hunt.  Fishing is out of the question at  present:    The high water is  bringing  down so much driftwood that the fish  are real busy dodging it\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand that is  more than some of the bridges can do.  The aborigines of Creston are pretty  busy these days \"hunting bear,\" but  seem to be getting more mourich than  bruins.  The high water mark was reached  on Sunday night for this year. The  cool weather since has eaused a temporary drop in the floods.  New High Level  Bridge Goes Out  trt,.

Milt Beam left on Friday for Bull  River, where he has taken a position  as fire warden with the C.P.R.  Henry Hamilton will move into the  new government observatory on the  top of Goat Moiintain on July 1st.  The station is how complete, and the  telephone wires were strung the early  part of* the week by fire warden  Hendren.  Mr. Klingensmith returned from  Bull Riyer on Friday. He has been  working in the C.P.R. mills there, but  they have had to shut down on account of the high water at that point.  Miss Elsie Stinson, who has. been  Visiting her parents here for a few  days, returned to Cranbrook yesterday.  H. Brownrigg carries off the. palm  for early strawberry shipping this  year. He had a full crate for export  on Saturday.  The rain of Sunday anel Monday  has done a world of good te> the grow-  crops. With some warm wealhernow  everything should come along fine.  The floods that prevailed the  early  part of the week at many points along  the Crow line did hot fail to put in an  appearance -in  the   Creston   Valley.  Although nothing serious enough to  even threaten rail communication was  in evidence the ne*iv high level traffic  bridge over the Goat River at Erickson was almost completely wrecked at  an eariy hour Monday morning.   The  river, which   was pretty much of a  roaring   torrent .owing    to   the   hot  weather   melting    the  snow   at   the  higher up points, Nvaas-further swollen  as a result of Sundtty night's heavy  rain, which also assisted materially in  increasing the stream of driftwood and  fallen timber which began  to  choke  the river that night.  \"The enormous  pressure   of  water   and   the   steady  stream of heavy debris   pounding on  the   unprotected    piles   proved    too  heayy a  strain  oh the  underpinning  and about midnight the   centre span  gave   way, crashing   down   into the  waters below almost like matchwood.  Fortunately in its trip de>wn stream it  did not collide with the old bridge it  was to replace, and which still stands.  Most of the new bridge material is  piled up along shore a short distance  beyond the. old structure.   The new  bridge was only completed   the afternoon   previous,  some   $6,000   having  been spent on ifc~ and it is estimated  the span that went out wou'd account  for almost half this amount.  By the use of considerable dynamite  and by keeping all possible driftwood  on the move for almost 36 horns the  bridge over the Gotit to the-mission as  well as the bridges'-isen. .the- _K~VYes\/-.  caped with little.damage and all fear  as to their safety is removed as the  river has fallen greatly and a similar  rise in the water will hardly come this  season.  crate  dozen marked end.

The best of results are always  obtained in cases of acute rheumatism  in the joints, in gravel and gout, and  invariably the pains and stiffness which  so. frequently and persistently accompany the disease rapidly disappear.

A systematic levelling up of all .assessed  values would simplify school  financing wonderfully.  inspect Soft Fruit  The first of the 1916 Dominion  Fruit Crop Report came to hand  last week. This season the authorities are seemingly bent on giving  soft fruit shipments much greater  attention than in previous seasons,  judging hy the prominence given  them in the initial issir* of the  Report.  Among other good things it says:  \"When consumers pay a high price  for strawberries which arc hall'  green and practically tasteless,  they .are discouraged from buying  t.liiit fruit evi'ii when the properly  matured berries reach the market  at reasonable prices.\"  This   bit   of   wisdom   should    be  seriously   considered   and   equally  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffderiour'ly acted upon by every shipper.    According to the B.C.   Fruit  Bulletin    the   CVestoii    Valley   will  market   20   (jars    of   strawberries.  Twi  years hence we will be sending  .nit U0 carloads, though the demand  will hardly have*   increased   to   the  same extent.

Couple with all this the favorable  looking arrangement entered into  with the O.U.G. for the sale of the  crop and there is no dodging the  conclusion that this year of our  lord should find the ranching  element iu fairly good humor with  themselves, and in better humor  than for a couple of years, at. least,  to take a keen interest in things  horticultural.  To provide an.outlet for some of  this enthusiasm why not have a  fruit fair. We expect to have the  goods to show, plus some prosperity  and the government seems to he  willing to come across elsewhere  with the usual grant and judges.  Pretty most everyone is convinced these shows are good things,  the time seems opportune. Can't  we get together and talk things  over. This is of the second time  of asking.

About a month ago  fche hen was set on 12 eggs and after  setting industriously for the allotted  time succeeded in bringing out 13  healthy chicks. Mrs. Nathorst as-  sertf that oue of the eggs was doubled  yoked and brought out two chicks.

Indian's Exciting  Mix with Cougar  John Alexander arid Pete, two Ores-  ton Indians who were at Proctor for  their annual ^high-water char fishing  trip last week, had a real exciting  hour of it on Saturday, particularly  Pete.  Pete was fishing and had made a  good catch when he saw a cougar  swimming across the lake He went  ashore, grabbed his rifle and paddled  out to meet the animal. Atadistance  of about. 75 yards he fired and missed,  but the cougar kept, coming and before he could shoot again had climbed  into the canoe, Pete at the same time  taking to the water and scrambling  up on some driftwood.  Floating down stream on the driftwood Pete engaged in a long battle  with the cougar which continually  struck at. him as the canoe and driftwood with their burdens bumped into  oach other.  Pete was a, pretty sick Indian when  he was dragged out of the water into  safety by John Alexander. The wild  cat went, ashore and slunk quietly into  the woods. The iiilian lost, his rifle,  fishing tackle and several char and  salmon he had caught.  -I  for Round Trip  GOING Dates\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdJune 29th to July  1st inch  FINAL RETURN LIMIT July 3.

This was due fco washouts, two of  whieh were serious. The first of them  occurred at Natal and wasso extensive  that a tranfer of passengers and mail  was entirely out of the question from  early Monday morning until Wednesday morning. The other was near  Moyie which came about the same  time, but was remedied late on Tuesday evening, ehabling passengers detained here since Monday noon to get  away with some hope of at least getting fco Fernie pretty well on time  Wednesday.  No. 514 with. Conductor Graves in  charge made the daily run  as  far as  Yahk' every day.   though   just  why  was   a   mystery  seeing the Spokane  line was also out of   business starting  Tuesday and passengers for points on  that route were being held at Creston  and   Yahk.

The  washouts  are clue mainly to the floods caused by  the  melting  snow during the warm  weather of last week.    Less  than   40  per cent, of this same snow  has disappeared.    Should another   hot week  happen along later a repetition of this  week's damage seems  immininent as  it will be hardly possible to make little  more than temporary repairs  on   the  bridges that haye gone out so high if  fche flood of, water.

You do not  feel up to the mark, are easily tired out, worry over little things, and get  cross and irritable, but do not consider yourself sick.

London.' \"  The Influence of a Picture  By Edith C.'Salisbury in the Country  Gentleman  Tliere is a long stretch of prairie  country between (Saskatoon and Edmonton, in Western Canada, where  there are some. very, isolated homes.  Once, while on 'a visit to a women's  institute in that section, I had an opportunity to visit in one of these  homos. I had heard much of the woman who presided over it; she was  known th rough out the district for her  interest in community  affairs.  It, was a small house, not at all attractive in appearance, and it must,  have been uncomfortably cold in winter. It was unplastered, with-many  cracks in the walls and floor througli  which the wind entered as it would.  The rooms Avere small, the furniture  scant and poor; but it was home to  this woman and to her husband and  her child,  a little girl of four years.  There was a bit of lace curtain over  the window, and a crocheted tidy on  a table in the \"front room\" under  the family Bible. There was a pathos in these simple decorations that  made the eyes smart, for they spoke,  plainly of hope; and discouragement,  of an innate love of those trifles  which change an ordinary room into  a home.  But, there was one. adornment in  that room, sufficient in itself to make  one lorget the; missing things; it,  might not have been so conspicuous  in other surroundings, but in that particular place it stood out, above everything else: it was just a. good, but inexpensive, copy of one of the famous  paintings; a picture of a bit of lovely  country.  lt was impossible not to wonder  how the picture came there. Who selected it:-- What^prompted its selection? These were the questions the  woman who presided over that home  saw in the eyes of her visitor. We  were sitting together near a glowing  fire, a good light on'the picture, tbe  woman sewing a child's gingham ap-  ro n.  .\"Of eoure you have noticed our one  good picture and perh.ap have\/ wondered how we came by it.\" she said by  way of introduction. \"We .have had  that picture nearly two years. It has  made a groat change in our home.  None of us would part with it. We  consider it our choicest possession.  \"Two years ago the bottom \"seemed  to hav\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd> dropped out of the world for  inc. ' I was sick and tired, so tired I  wished to die, and so discouraged 1  had almost made up my mind to getaway from it all, no matter what the  cost. Life isn't, easy in a place like  this. The work is too hard and the  returns too  small.  \"That summer my niece came to  visit, us. She came from the city, but  from the first she seemed happy out  here She found more beauty in this  place in one week than I bad found  in it, all the time I had lived here.  She.was always calling nie to the win-'  dow to see something beautiful, but I  confess at lirst I couldn't spe anything  but the common, humdrum things I  had been looking at for years\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdthe  things T bad grown tired of. She insisted that. I go for a walk with her  every day. no mal ter what excuse of  weariness or work I gave. 'It. will do  you good. Vour work will go easier  and faster after you have had a whiff  of this prairie air' was all the sympathy I got.  \"She stayed 'three months and all  that time, every day .of it. she talked  about, beauty iuitil we all were infected by it!\" She tilled the house  with liowers. nnxi laughed and sang  from morning till night.

We are still very pooi;, .life is still  hard soni't imes, but somehow now  we find ti. great, deal of happiness in  our home and we have learned to appreciate the beauty of the world outside.\"  That is the story of tin* influence of  a good picture in one home. Another  I heard at a hirniers' institute in  Cedar County. Iowa, where a woman  was telling her audience something  about the value of pictures in the  home. Sin; said: \"I have a friend,  the molher oi four sons. This mother  was bitterly disappointed because  every boy as he givvv f-> manhood decided in be a sailor.

Addressing ..-4ne City Carlton Club,  at a luncheon several weeks ago, Premier Hughes of_.Australia returned to  the efuestion of the necessity for an  immediate declaration of British pol-  icv in regard to trade after the war.  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe eyes    of    Britishers    are open,  said Mr. Hughes.    A    people slow to  anger, unsuspicious of guile in others,  foolishly generous in    throwing open  their land to the world, offering sanctuary to  all, even to those  who proposed first to exploit, and then to betray them\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdit was a considerable ti'-':e  before  we    as  a nation   woke to the  peril in which we stood.    But though  the awakening came late, it has come  in    earnest.   \"Britain    is    thoroughly  aroused,    it    is  stirred    to    its    very  depths.     Like   a  strong    -man    called  upon to fight, for his    life, who casts  his outer garments-   aside  and  strips  to   tbe   buff,   so   stilted conventions,  party shibboleths, cherished doctrines  have been put away,  aud quietly  but  determinedly   the   nation is throwing  its   wluole   energy   into the fight.   To  me what is at once the. most appealing  and    hopeful ' sign   is   the unanimity  with which the    peopie  recognize the  futility  of  their   former   views   of   national  ' and. economic  life.    They  are  ready to  scrap    everything  in  which  they formerly believed in order to ensure  a decisive victory*\"over our enemy.    I emphasize the word \"decisive\"  for nothing short of a decisive victory  will  avail\/  Uermany's military power .-must be  utterly crushed,  for  in  no  other way  can     the   peace   of   the   world   be   assured.    Peace    under    any other conditions would    be    only  \"a 'period of  feverish   preparation  for  another  and  even more fearful struggle.   When the  civilized world lias lifted herself from  the shambles, it must \"be able to rest  itself on the sweet, green  pastures of  peace,     unhau'nted     by   the   dreadful  spectre of war. The British people are.  prepared to do anything necessary to  achieve victory.    They  recognize that '  much has to be done, not only on the I  field  of battle,     but  in  the  fields    of  commerce:  and  industry.    They recognize amongst  the chief causes of this  war  the  desire  of  Merniany  to wrest  from   Britain  her industrial and commercial supremacy.

I   gave  opinion.      Let,  c  modern industrial world. At the end  of this war the world will be very  poor. It will have wasted its substance. It will have to set to work  with ail its might to produce more  wealth. And millions of its most effective producers will be dead. It  will have to build more ships, bridges,  factories, manufacture machinery and  produce wealth generally.  All this requires much preparation.  It involves many very complex and  difficult questions. Of course if Brit-  tain is simply going to get what it  wants from liermany\/ as it did before the war, the matter is very simple. But if not, then the producers of  Britain and the empire ought to be  told what the trade poiicv of Britain  after the war is going to\" be, so that  they can make their arrangements accordingly.  If we are to attack this question effectively, there must be organization.  Wo must, attack it systematically and  scientifically. Wo must see what Britain and the various parts of the  empire, tbo, can produce not only  with commercial, but with national  profit. We must exploit .every opportunity, develop every resource within  the empire. We must above all see  that our industries are not dependent upon the raw materials which  our potential or actual enemies control. We ought not to commit the  criminal error of building up our industries upon a foundation controlled  by the enemy. Or very existence depends not only uppn our naval, but  our' mercantile supremacy. Shipbuilding, naval and mercantile marine, is the very breath of our nostrils. Guns, engines, machinery and  our vitals.  What stupendous   folly   it was that  placed in the hands of Germany the  monopoly of tungsten powder essential  . for hardening our steel, and the con-  1 trol  of the metals    whieh enter into  Ith.e warp    and .wodf of our industrial  ( life, anel which are the drawbridge to  national safety.    We were the pioneers  of the textile industry. It is one of our  great industries.     Many    millions  of  capital, many    hundred, thousands of  men are employed in it; but can any  words   sufficiently   castigate a nation  who permitted the dyes, without which  the  industry is  clipped  of  its  wings,  to be in the hands of our enemy? The  empire is capable of providing all the  sugar    consumed in Britain.    Yet we  placed ourselves    in bondage to Germany and   Austria, eating an inferior  article    because  it  was  cheap,   while  fertile sugar-producing lands throughout,   the   empire   wert;   allowed   to   lie  id hi.    This  war has rung    the death  knell   of  a  policy   of  cheapness   that  took no thought for the social and industrial welfare of the workmen, that  mistook mere wealth for greatness, no  matter whether tiie wealth was in our  hands or those of. German Jews.  Well, after this war, where are we  going to get our sugar\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdfrom the  empire or from Germany and Austria? What new industries are we  going to establish; what old ones are  we going to develop? Where are we  going to get the raw materials for  our industries? What, preparations  are we going to make to cope with  the great, demand for ships, bridges,  machinery, etc., after the war?  These are questions that ought to  be answered now. To wait, until the  end of the war is to piny directly into  the hands of our enemy, to help him  to keep up his national spirits, to still  the loud murmuring of tho. German,  people, and the ever-increasing misgivings of the capitalists o\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Germany  hy the promise* of brisk employment  and good trade after the war. To delay the public, declaration of what our  Iraele policy is to be is to make the  work of attempting to eradicate German influence in our midst infinitely  more* difficult, anel to make any radical change after the war impossible.  To protend otherwise is to throw dust  in the eyes of the people, io play the  game of Germany, to prolong the' war,  indelibly to stamp Britain as n nation of' men no longer iit to carry  the great, burden of empire.
