In the publication today\nof Its official correspondence with\nlhe allies-. Blnce June, places on\nrecord Its position with regard to\nth* Oerman reparations problem.\nLord Curzon, secretary for foreign\naffairs, in an elaborate note dealing\nwith all the manifold aspects of the\nprpblem, sets forth that the British\ngovernment regards the occupation\nnf the Ruhr as Illegal and unauthorized by the Versailles treaty, thus\nmvvportlng the German contention In\nthis respect. At the same time,\nhowever, he offers to submit the point\nto arbitration at Tho Hague or by\nsome other body.\nWhile still adhering to a note of\nthe utmost eeurtesy, and saying nothing definite with regard to any separate action on the part of Great\nBritain. Lord Curzon emphasizes that\nOreat Britain cannot agree with the\nFrench policy, which he Intimates\nplainly seems to point to an Indefinite occupation of the Ruhr.\nLord Curzon still leaves It to the\nFrench government to suggest the\nmethod of selecting an International\ncommission to examine Into Germany's capacity to pay reparations.\nbut he plainly declares that Britain\ncannot accept the decision of the\nreparations commission on this matter, since that commission has be-\ncdme tbe mere ' Instrument of the\nFranco-Belgian policy.\nFinally. Lord Curzon declares that\nthe British government still adheres\nto the plan of former-Premier Bonar\nLaw. under which Great Britain\nwould be satisfied to obtain from\nOerman reparations and allied debts\nto Great Britain a sum sufficient to\nmeet Great Britain's obligations to\nthe United States.\nResistance Withdrawal Quid Pro Quo\nIrfird Curzon's note, 'handed to the\nFrench and Belgian ambassadors on\nSaturday, expresses the sincere disappointment with which the- British\ngovernment had 'received the previous communications of France and\nBelgium, especially since Great Britain had suggested that, an Inquiry\nInto Germany's capacity to pay\nshould be conducted within the\nframework of the treaty of Versailles; that the German government\nshould be asked to withdraw its\norders lnjolnlng t\u00bbsslv\u00ab* resistance on\ncondition that this should be regarded\nas an evidence of good faith, Involving reconsidering bv the powers\nof their conditions of occupation,\nand ft gradual return to normal Of\nthe industrial life In the Ruhr.\nThe British note remarks that It Is\n'\u25a0difficult to think In what way\ng\"c aiter con a I deration should have been\nobowo, to the Franco-Belgian point of\nview.\" .... ' .\nIt then. ja.t great length,. outlines\ntho British viewpoint, which Lord Curzon -summarizes as follows:\n\"His majesty's government never\ncontemplated, and does not coatem*\nplate, that Germany should be relieved of all reparation payments.\n1 hey are determined that Germany\nMit.11 pay to the maximum of her capacity. What that maximum may be\nshould be decided by an impartial inquiry. It cannot be ascertained by\neasting up what Germany's creditors\nwould desire.\nHost Hot Force Uqulda-tloiu\n\"To ask more than Germany's capacity can only destroy assets which\nGermany would be able to offer the\nallies. To force liquidation is not the\nmost profitable way of making recovery from a debtor's resources. Germany can only make substantial payments, if, by restoration of her finances and Ftabllination of her currency, she secures a budget surplus\navailable for reparations. Moreover,\nthis surplus must be in a form which\nctn.be made available for external\npayments ovor the foreign exchanges.\nExternal debts cannot be paid by tho\ncollection of depreciated paper marks.\n\"I(i the view of his majesty's government, forcible Interference with the\neconomic life of Germany, even If consistent with the treaty of Versailles,\ncannot assist in the necessary restoration. Not only will it rrevent realization of any surplus for reparations,\nbut, by intensifying the disorder of\nGerman finance and currency, will\nhave the gravest reactions on trade.\nFrench Method Doomed to Failure.\n\"His majesty's government, therefore, regard aa doomed to failure the\nmethod pursued by the French and\nf-Dlglan governments to secure reparations. Despite the wholesale seizures,\nthe occupation of the Ruhr has produced, at great cost, leas receipts for\nthe allies, notably of coal and coke,\nthan were forthcoming . the previous\nyear. Moreover, his majesty's government feels that the resulting situation\nInvolves a great and growing danger\nto the peaceful trade of the world,\nand not the least of that of Great\nBritain.\n\"The government regards the continuance of the present position as\nfraught with gravest risk, both eco-\nnomie and political. They consider\nan impartial fixation of Germany's\nliabilities at a figure not Inconsistent\nwith her practical power of making\npayment, as a matter of great urgency\nand they have suggested what ap-\nCContinued on *>u\u00abe 3)\nDeaf Mate Slayer PUJUuluTI CUflU\nHas Brief Liberty UllMllllIlL OWIM\nIS DONE AGAIN\nIN FASTER TIME\nEnrique Tirabocchi of Argentine Cuts Five and Half\nHours From Record\nIS FIRST TfTcONQUER\nFROM THEJ-RENCH SIDE\nOther Three Swimmers Trying Feat All Have to Be\nLifted Out of Water\nJOHN COSGRAVE,\nThe insane doaf mute who killed\nRev.

The swimmer also cut 5 hours and 25 minutes\noff the record sot in the 70's by\nthe first man to swim the channel.\nCaptain Webb, an Englishman, who\nlater lost his life in trying to negotiate the rapids at Niagara Falls.\nCollapses on Touching Bottom\nThe great effort of Tirabocchi\nsapped him of all his strength, and,\nunlike Sullivan, he was unable to\nwalk up to the shore. The moment\nthe Argentinian's feet touched the\nbottom a few yards out from the\npebble-covered beach of Dover, he\nfell Into the arms of members of\nthe crowd that had cheered the finishing strokes of his trudge across\nthe 22 1-2'mile stretch of water. '\nHe recovered rapidly, however. His\nretinue, who had rowed across the\nchannel in his wake, removed his\nswimming trunks, and lifted htm\nInto some dry clothes. The clean\nlinen seemed to revive him, for he\nstood up and began chatting with\nhis comrades.\nThen, before anyone had an opportunity to find out what ho thought\nabout his swim, he hopped into a\nrowboat, which took him to tug,\nwhich immediately pointed Its prow\nback toward the French shore.\nWas Fortunate in Tide Turns\nTirabocchi had luck with him. Had\nhe been 30 minutes slower In getting within the sheltered cove between the long Admiralty pier and\nShakespeare cliff, ho would have had\nto battle longer with an adverse tide,\nwhich last year robbed swimmers of\nvictory.\nAt 83 minutes past noon Tira-\nbocchi's feet touched earth again for\nthe first time since he had taken the\nwater at 8 o'clock last night. Because of his spewed In crossing, he\nhad to contend with only three tides,\nwhile Sullivan had five to fight. \u2022\nLike Sullivan, the Argentinian will\nreceive \u00a31000 for his feat, and also\ngold medal from the Channel Swimming club.\nThe other persons who started yesterday to do what Tirabocchi accomplished today all had to be lifted out of the water. Two of them,\nRomeo Nuclei, another Argentinian,\nand Sam Richards of Boston, have\ndecided the channel is too much for\nthem, this year at least.\nTirabocchi is the first man In history to ewlm from the continent of\nEurope to the British Isles.

The greatest difficulty seems to\nbe ln connection with the foreign ministry, and It is thought possible that\nhe will take the post himself temporarily.\nIt Is believed In political quarters\nthat Herr Hllferding will be the new\nfinance minister, and Herr Bellman\nwill be named minister of the Interior, while the name of Herr Rlieln-\nbaben of the People's party Is men*\ntloned as the new secretary of state\nto the Imperial chancellory.\nSocialists Will Dominate.\nThus the new cabinet will be of a\nstrictly political character. Including\nrepresentatives of the United Socialists, Clerical, People's and Democratic\nparties. The United Socialists have\nr.iade it known they expect to have\nfour seats ln the ministry.\nJust before Chancellor Cuno called\non President Ebert to submit lhe cab-\nInet'H resignation, the reachstag leaders, representing coalition parties and\nthe United Socialists, visited the president and discussed with him the\nprospects of constructing a government on a four-party coalition basis.\nThis indicated that the United Socialists had arrived at an understanding with the bourgeosle parties with\nrespect to their readiness ot eater a\ncabinet which would accept as a platform the program of Internal tax and\nfinancial measures and other political\nnnd \u2022jconomical demands which tht\nUnited Socialists put forward In their\ncampaign against Herr uno.\nAim Is to Defeat *%\u2022&\u00bb.\nAbandonment of the chancellor by\nthe Socialists was commonly accepted\nas a concession to their radical following, and as a counter stroke to\nthe Communists, who nre using the nation's, distresses as a means of mobilizing the working classes around the\nred fluff.\nIt may bo. said that Herr Cuno was\npurely a victim of the economic crisis.\nas the three middle parties supporting\nhim were still Inclined to stand by\nhis government. But at last they realized the futility of maintaining him\nIn the position of chancellor in the\nface of 200 hostile Labor votes in the\nrtlchstag.\nThe four-party coalition which hereafter will occupy the government\nbench in the reichstag will command\na majority which is opposed by only\n71 Nationalistic and 26 Communistic\nvotes, out of a total of 469.\nNew Chancellor Industrialist.\nDr. Stressemann was born In 1879.\nHe Is one of the most fluent speakers\nir. the reichstag.

It\nneans that Britain would be prepared\nto waive, ln the Interest of a complete\ngeneral settlement, a very large part\nof the amount for whfch the British\ntaxpayer holds tho due obligations of\nthe allied governments.\n\"It is the hope of his majesty's government that the above explanations\nwill convince the French and Belgian\ngovernments of the reasonableness of\nthe British position, und will win\ntheir assent to Its acceptance.\n\"They ate reluctant to contemplate\nthe possibility that separate action\nmay be required In order to hasten a\nsettlement which cannot much longer\nbe delayed without gravest consequences lo a recovery of trade and\nthe peace of the world.\"\nAllies Have Shown Little Courtesy.\nLord Curaon, in tbe body of his\nr.ote, which is very long and filled\nwith arguments over various proposals\nand points raised In the extended\ncourse of the reparations negotiations,\ncomplains that, notwithstanding the\nterms of courtesy employed by France\nand Belgium regarding the recent\nBritish suggestions, the reception of\nthese suggestions by those governments \"leave his majesty's government\nunder the ' painful Impression that\nneither are their suggestion welcomed\nby their allies, nor Is their offer of\ncooperation helH to merit consideration except on condition that no de- ,\nnarture be made in any one parttcu- jca\" \"rover from Germany,\nlar from whatever France and Bel ' lneV can onlv be Kran1\nthe Just claims of other parts of the [\nEmpire, to limit her demands for\npayment by her allies and by Ger- j\nmany together, to a net sum approximating 14,200,000,000 gold marks, rep- !\nresenting the present value of Great!\nBritain's funded debt to the United i\nStates. The concessions the govern- 1\nment may be able to offer In re- j\nsped to interallied debts, says the j\nnote, must afcordlngly depend largely!\non tb^e percentage of this sum of\n14.200,000,000 gold marks which it ]\nPacket of N\nWILSON'S N\nFLY PADS\n\\ WILL KILL MORE FLIES THAN\/\n\\ S8\u00b0-\u00b0WORTH OF ANY A\n\\STICKY FLYCATCHER\/\nCleaS to handle.

It must also be under\nstood that the willingness to discuss\nthe question must not be interpreted\nas a wkiver on Great Britain's part,\nof the British rights ns a creditor,\nwhich are governed solely by contracts under which money was advanced, and the securities which\nGreat Britain holds\nFrance's Obligations Stand\nThe memo declares that there was\nno suggestion jvhen the'loans were\nmade to France, that repayment waa\ndependable on recoveries from Germany. The bills were made sub-\nject to renewal for a limited period\nglum declare to be their overriding\nviews and decisions.\"\nLord Curzon stated that the Belgian reply at first sight appeared\nto be the less uncompromising, but\nthat at closer examination showed\nboth the attitude of Belgium and\nFrance, for all practical purposes,\nidentical. Hence, the British government asked leave to deal with both\nreplies ln a single answer.\nCommenting strongly on France\nhaving ignored Great Britain's suggestion of a draft reply to Germany,\nLord Curzon said:\n\"The ommlssion is hardly compensated for by the series of argumentative passages, inquiries on points\nof details, and offers of further discussions and conversations holding\nout the prospect of an indefinitely\nspun-out controversy, while the fundamental principles were only mentioned in order to declare that they\ndo not admit of discussion.\"\nFrance Asks O.Hbt Cancellation\nMuch of the note is taken up with\narguments against the Franco-Belgian claims of special priority in\npayments, and especially France's\nclaim that she ought to receive 26.-\n000,000,000 marks net, and also have\nher debts to Great Britain and the\nUnited States cancelled. Lord Curzon declares that such, a demand is\nfor an amount three or four times\nlarger than -would, on balance, fall\nto France's share under the existing agreement.\nLord Curzon declares hla government cannot admit there ''is any\nground whatever for revising the\npercentages. In this connection he\nemphasizes that Great Britain alone\namong the allies is paying Interest\non debts incurred abroad during the\nwar, representing a capital sum of\n\u00a3 1,000,000,000 at the present rate\nof exchange due the United States,\nand that Great Britain has been\ndeprived, in tho allied interest, of\nforeign securities estimated at from\n\u00a3700.000,000 to \u00a3800,000,000 which\nwould otherwise substantially assist\nin the payment of the British debt\nto the United States.\nLord Curzon opposes the Franco-\nBelgian contention that the reparation commission is competent to undertake an investigation of Germany's\ncapacity to pay, taking, the ground\nthat, in the absence of a United\nStatea representative, France and\nBelgium would be able to carry any\nresolution over the heads of the\nBritish and Italian representatives.\nRegarding the constitution of the\nproposed expert commission the note\nsays the British government would\nbe willing to see upon It, nominees\nnot only of the powers entitled to\nreparations, but of the United States,\nand of powers which took no part\nin the late war, and, it would seem\ndesirable, of Germany herself. If,\nwould prefer any other form of constitution, the British government\nwouhl be happy to consider it.\nHectoring that the British government cannot subscribe to the\nthesis that passive^ resistance mustjonfy \"after\" tho 7ermlnaUon\"~or'the\nWE BUY FROM MAKERS\nWE huv.< hml h B|i1hii,1Ii|\nSEASON with l'urc Wool\nBATHING Knits.

The article alludeB\no the decline of the apprenticeship\nrystem in almost every country. This,\nt says, has resulted in a shortage\n>f highly-skilled workers, while the\nworkers now produced as skilled are\n>flen Inadequately trained. Atten-\n;lon is directed to an Interesting innovation that has been introduced\nin New South Wales, where boya\ncan be apprenticed to a group of\nemployers as well as to an Individual. In this case the members\nVf the Employers' association are\njplntly, but not severally, liable for\n;he performance of the contract, and\nhe apprentice may work for any\n-nember of the association. This\nlelps to insure that the apprentice\nreceives as thorough a training as\npossible, and, especially In a highly-\norganized trade, largely overcomes\nthe difficulty caused by the apprentice's desire to move from one\nEstablishment to another.\nAllusion is made in the article\nriuoted, says the Victoria Colonist,\nto attempts being made by certain\nlarge undertakings in Canada and\nthe United States to Improve and\nmodernize apprenticeship methods, by\nwhich a complete eystem of technical education, both theoretical and\npractical, Ib organized. The tenor\nOf the article shows that there\nIs strong argument for a return\nto the apprenticeship system on, a\nwide scale, with emphasis laid on\nthe necessity of making lt adaptable\nto modern industrial conditions.\nWithout a doubt, the old apprenticeship system produced better workmen than are being produced today. It produced workmen who\npaid more attention to detail, who\ntook a greater pride in their work\nwho concentrated on bringing out the\nfinished article In as near a state\nof perfection as possible, and who\nwere truly, trained in the work of\nspecialization. The idea prevalent\nnowadays that a youth, after a brief\ntheoretical training In a trade, can\nbecome an efficient worker and\ndraw a worker's pay because he is\neligible to belong to the union should\nhe exploded In the interest of the\neconomic output. There are too many\nInadequately trained workers, and\nhence. there Ib great waste in the\nwork of production.\nWicieni\nbusek\nL*ur%.A-Kh*w\u00ab\\\nDISHES IX THIS WEEK'S .MENUS\nTOMOUKOW'S MENU\nBreak taut\nPlums\nCereal\nCoffee Boiled Eggs\nToast\nLuncheon\nBaked Macaroni and Cheese\nLettuce Salad\nWhole Wheat Bread\nTea Jelly\nPinner\nCod Steaks\n.' , Baked Potatoes\nString Beans\nTomato Salad\nCoffee Orange Custard\nSteamed Clams: Wash the clamB\nwell, then place them in a large pot\nwhich contains only one or two cup-\nfuls of cold water.

Built of Iarga\nstone slabs, It has a central chamber\nabout 10 feet by five. Around it la\na circular pavement of slabs, from\nwhich radiate a number of curious\nwalks marked by stones. A considerable quantity of human and animal\nbones wer\u00ab found, together with flint\ndaggers snd spear heads.\nBut the most interesting discovery\nwas that of about 7000 fragments of\n< i,lamented \\ascs, which had been\ntl Ickly strewn outside the tomb, The\nshattering of these vases probably\ntook place, according to archeologists.\nIn connection with heathen religious\nceremonies.

His\nfather asked him to have dinner\nwith him, but the boy refused, saying that he was going Into the\ncountry to see some friends. Seeing\nthat he was agitated Mr. Bowes-\nLyon went to his room three times,\nendeavoring to persuade him to come\nIdown, saying, \"We'll have a bottle\nof champagne.\" The boy emphatically refused.\nHeart Was Broken\n\"There was nothing else troubling\nmy son) his heart wns broken and\nthat was allj\" Mr. Bowes-Lyon\ncontinued.\n\"A few days ago Lady Parsons\nsent for him and told him the\nEngagement was broken off.

On the\nAlgM of the aragedy he had called\nthe witness up and said: \"I am\ngoing to kill myself.\" Mr. Tritton,\nwho was at the Guards club, Immediately rushed to the Hyde Park\nhotel, where he found he had juBt\nmissed young Bowes-Lyon. Later in\nhis evidence Mr. Tritton volunteered\n(he following observation:\nGirl Not to Blame\n\"Having seen both sides of the\ncase for 10 months and having\nbeen Introduced to Miss Parsons,\nImy opinion, and the opinion of my\nfriends. Is that Miss Parsons Is\nnot to blame In any way.\"\nIt was this observation that caused\nthe broken-hearted father's outburst\nas given above.\nMr. Tritton replied: \"Your son\n(9FU my greatest friend.\"\nThe father\u2014\"You should not say\nthings against him now he la dead.\"\nMr. Tritton explained that he did\nnot mean to say that Mr. Bowes-\nLyon was to blame.\nThe coroner then read passages\nfrom a letter signed \"Freda,\"* which\n\/said: \"Mother does' not think I\n\u2022ought to marry If I am not really\nIn love with you.

It simply means that\nthe Egyptian monarch Insists that\na detachment of Egyptian doctors\nshall accompany the annual pilgrimage of the faithful with their\nholy carpet to Mecca. Hussein argues that the Hedjaa produces excellent doctos of Its own nnd he de-\nsea no Egyptian importations. No\nsettlement of the controversy is in\nsight, and King Hussein has appealed to Great Britain for a solution.\nAt the season of the annual pilgrimages to Mecca the Egyptian government habitually orgnnizes a considerable medical detachment to assure the welfare of the pilgrims on,\ntheir trying Journey. This year the\nusual course was followed and the\n*qulva'ent of the personnel of two\nfield hospitals was enlisted.

During\n\"he following year, when the vlg-\nJlantes were just getting under way,\n\u25a0there were 30 robberies and losses\n$64,341.85. But $30,000 was ob-\nluined In the year Just ended.\nThe record of Iowa, the only state\n..aving such an organization, has\nattracted the attention of bankers\nand authorities throughout the states\nnnd a number have visited here and\n|\u00ab,btalned a working knowledge of\n>tstol* and rifles, or sawed-off shot-\n[the system, with a view of having\nt introduced in their own states.\nThe vigilantes, armed with army\nguns, and the authority of deputy\n|frheriffs, are. for the most pa rt,\n\u2666x-service men, trained in the use\nnf guns. They are subject to call\n[4 hours a day, 365 days a year.\nTheir names and telephone numbers\nare on a special switchboard in the\n_?lephone office of their home town.\n|;hhI the operator, calling them out.\nallowed a bonus of $25 to en-\nIronrage speedy service.\nThe vigilantes operate In 800 of\n\u25a0the 100O towns ln the state which\nPiave banks. The organization is\nspreading, and probably will be in\n\u25a0 operation in the other 200 towns\n\u25a0before tl-e year is ended.\nBanks In each of the 99 counties\nof the state have pledged the payment of at least $1000 for the cap-\n|ture or Information leading to the\narrest and conviction of robbers or\n\u25a0 burglars attempting to rob or burglar-\nBee a bank. The reward is paid Im-\nIim-diately upon the capture, dead or\nof robbers or burglars taken\n|while in the act of committing the\nrrime.\nSeveral counties have equipped\niiheir vigilantes with armored autn-\nImobiles. One county has barricades\ntwrted at intersecting roads, from\nebind which the bandits are due\nor a rain of lead, should they\n|jifli\u00bbH that way. Another county has\nrired lights for night pursuit, that\nflthe vigilantes may identify ear-h\n,ih\u00abr.

Bartholemew. lt\nis now owned by Spokane Interests.\nTRIAL SHIPMENT\nGOING TO TRAIL\nAmong the many problems confronting the present government on taking\noffice was the reestablishment of re-\niur'i\"d soldiers, particularly those who\nthrough dlHabilitles suntalned on active service wire unable to follow\ntheir previous occupations, states a\nletter is.HUfri by the post office department Esoee'nlly was. this a vital\n(jtif.-sllou ns regards those depart ments\nwhich requir.* large numbers of em*\np'oypeN to carry on th* work both \u00ab.:\nUttawa und throughout the country.\nSince the conclusion of the war returned soldiers have hern given prefer\nence in thi> matter of employment In\n\u2022he civil service. One of the most extensive and widespread channels of\nt mployment has been the post office\ndepartment.\nA great number of returned men\nwere taken on In the several ci.y post\noffices and other branches of the\npostal service to replace permanent\nemployees who left the service for\nunions reasons. In addition, a lurge\nnumber have been afforded temporary\n.mployment from year to year during\nthe holiday period\u2014April to October\u2014\nto relieve members of the regulnr\ni.laffs on annual b-avc.\nHeretofore, temporary men taken on\nfor holiday relief purposes were, wltlt\nvery fi-w exceptions, totully untrained\nin post office work. Moreover, their\nwrvlces were dispensed with at the\nrod of October\u2014\u00bb \\ery unfavorable\ntime cf the yei-r owing to the diffi-\neulty of securing other work to tide\nI bun over the winter months. From\na labor Standpoint this was most uncut i*, factory.\nProblem Solved.\nRepresentations wen; annually received from numerous organizations of\nall classes asking the government to\nretain these temporary men for lhe\nwinter months. This waa done by recalling those whose Rervices had been\nilispf nsed with and retaining those'\ni,till on duty, with the result that the\n(ffIces were overmanned for a part of\nthe year, unnecessary expenditure in\nthe way of salaries was incurred, the\nvoorklng nut put of the staff individually was lessened, and the efficiency\nof the staff thereby impaired.\nWith a view to obviating the necessity of releasing the annual leave\nhelp at the end of the holiday period\nand to Increase the efficiency of the\nn-rvtce, thr postmaster-general directed\nthe officers of the department to go\ninto the whole mutter thoroughly. A I\nproposition has now been approved by 1\nT'nstmaster-Gcneral Murphy, whereby ]\nthe annual lenve will be spread over a\nperiod of 10 months\u2014February to November, instead of six months as formerly, and by the establishment of\nwhat is known as a postal pool.\nThe postal pool w.il constitute a\npermanent relief staff to take care of\n| minimi leave, sick leave, Christmas]\ntush work and other emergencies. This\n| will mean that a full ataff nf trained\nj employees will be nvailable at all\ntmes. Also the taking on of green |\nLands al. the beginning of each boll-[\nday season will be eliminated and the\ntemporary help required at Christmas\nvilli be materially reduced.\nThe postal pool will virtually provide a training ground for post office\nemployees, from which they will b\u00ab\ndrafted to the regular staff as vacancies occur. All new employees entering the service will be first attached\nto the postal pool and will be assigned\nworK suitable .lo their capabilities\nWli'Te undergoing the training they\nwill enjoy aU the privileges of civil\nservants. k\n.Employees in the postal pool giving\nu cHtisfaetory service will be advanced\n10 Ihe regular staff as vacancies oc\ncur. In this way continuous employment will be given as in previous\nyiara.\nThe officers of tbe department are\nunanimously of the opinion that the\nmorals of the staffs of the city post\ncifices will be improved, and that a\nmore efficient as v.-ll as a more economical service will obtain.\nLegal Notices\nCANCELLATION 07 ItESBILVE.\nNOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that\nthe reserve existing over Lot 4427A,\nCroup 1, Kootenay District, is cancelled.\nO.

Janxzow, pastor of the\nFirst English Lutheran church, last\nnight chose as his theme \"The right\nview of the holy ministry.\" He\nstated that In the opinion of many\nthe Christian ministry Is a hopeless,\nand at the same time a needless, undertaking, and that It has lost Its\npower to evangelize the world. However. h\u00ab declared, the word of Ood\nloaches a different view, and shows\nthe privilege, opportunity, need and\nresponsibility of this holy office. Ministers, he aRf.erted, have the undeserved privilege of being servants of\nChrists nnd stewards of Ood. This\nfnot, he contended, gives Christian\ncongregations and their pastors the\ncomfortable assurance that they need\nnot be ashamed of their ministry, nor\nneed they fear Its failure, because it\nhas the backing and moral support\nrf Ood. Despite this so-called enlightened age. there seldom was\ngreater Bphitual darkness than today.\nEven many churches, declared Pastor\nSnntovr, are breaking away from their\nold gospel moorings. A veritable flood\ncf doctrinal Indifference and uncertainty, of world! iness and pleasure\nmadness Is proving the ruin of many\nchurches. Thus there is now a demand for true ministers of Christ.\nThe Lutheran ministry of Nelson, it\nwas stated, is here to make the most\nof the opportunity which Ood grants.\nPrize Winners in\nYets' Whist and\nDance at Armory\nWell attended was the weekly\nwhist drive and dance of the O.W.V.A.\non Saturday night in the Armory.\nThe whlnt prizes were won by W.\nChristopher and Miss E.

The attacking\nfleet, on Its part, was called upon to\"\nactually cruise 3000 miles before\nreaching its objective in order that\nthe same difficulties might be experienced as would face the theoretical enemy.\nComing from northern ports the\ndelenders carried out the role of\nhaving been suddenly mobilized from\ntheir peaceful activities. One squadron of destroyers had only 50 per\ncent personnel when the orders came,\nbut the crews were hastily made\nup from apprentices. Eighteen seaplanes were sent from Hampton\nIloads under their own power to\nPanama, and within a few hours\nafter their rarlval were on the scouting line.\n'Order that logical estimates of\nthe situation can be made,\" the official report said, \"certain assumptions are made aa to the general\nsituation which Is supposed to exist.\nThese are as follows: , .\nStrained relations between Blue\nand Black have recently been made\nnacre tense by a cruise of the Black\nfleet in the eastern Pacific under\nAdmiral E.. composed of seven battle-\n38 destroyers and two destroyer tenders, nine submarines and one submarine tender. After visiting ports\non the west coast of South America,\nthis fleet assembled at Galapagos\nIslands, where they joined the Black\nBase force and Train and a number\nof fuel and cargo vessels under other\nflags. After repair and refueling the\nentire Black fleet nailed with the announced Intention of vlBltlng Mag-\nda lena hay and American Pacific\nwaters.\n.The Blue government, In view of\nthe threatening situation, has ordered\nthe majority of ships of the Blue\nfleet to Atlantic coast yards for\noverhaul. The remainder \"has passed\nthrough the canal and Is based on\nBalboa, under Admiral M., comprising five battleships, 25 destroyers. 16\nsubmarines and three tenders;. The\nBlue army air canal force has been\nasftenibled in the canal aone. This\nconcludes the socalled 'general situation\/\nIn view of the strained relations,\nAdmiral E., commanding the Black\nfleet, prior to lea vl ng Black coun -\ntry.reoeived instructions that the genera! naval plan would call for the\ndestruction of the canal locks or obstruction of the waterway.\nTo this end, If incidental to seizing a base within radius of the\ncanal he should see fit to violate\nthe neutrality of a Central or South\nAmerican country, he was authorised\nto do so. He was also informed that\ntwo large plane carriers would join\nhim at a rendezvous to the northward of the Galapagos islands.\n'On February 19 the Black plane\ncarriers join Admiral E.'s command\nand at 8:00 a.m. on that day when\nIn latitude 7 deg. 30 min. north,\nlongitude SV7 deg. 45 min. west, he receives the following radio dispatch\nfrom the Black general staff:\n\"'Execute your war mission period\nthere will be no formal declaration\nof war.\"\nBlue concluded that Black's most\nprnbable intention would be to establish a base on the Central or pos-\nIbly South American coast, and to\nlaunch an attack by ibombers on the\ncanal. The Black conimander came\nto the same conclusion. He rejected\nthe South American coast on account\nof the greater distance. After due\nconsideration, Port Culebra In Costa\nRica was chosen for the Black, base.\n\"At 4:30 p.m., February 20, Blue\nforce commander sent radio to commander Blue destroyers to send b!x\nscouts immediately to examine coast\nas far as Fonseca, At 4:10 p.m.,\nFebruary 21, the Blue destroyer\nCcghlan reported the enemy forces\nentering Port Culebra harbor.
