The\nbooming punts of Bob Isbister marked the only decisive superiority of\nthe eastern champions.\nAs the national championship moved eastward under the towing drives\nof the 22-year-old Isbister, many\ncompelling figures stood out in the\ngrim battle on frozen turf. Perhaps\nthe greatest of these was Bob Fritz,\n200-pound quarterback and coach of\nthe Bombers.\nFritz brought the Winnipeg team\neast two years earlier and defeated\nHamilton Tigers for the west's first\nand only victory in a Grey cup\nmatch. He was overshadowed that\nday by the brilliance of his halfback star, Fritz Hanson, whose feats\nof ball carrying won the day.\nArgos stopped the great Hanson\nSaturday, hurried him into making\ncostly errors and contrived to out-\ncharge the hard-hitting Winnipeg\nforwards. But they couldn't stop\nFritz, the game's doughtiest fighter\nwho went down battered and swollen.\nThat was how the Bombers gave\nup football supremacy, undecided\nlast year when Sarnia Imperials and\nReginal Roughriders did not meet\nin a post-season game of champions.\nFumbles by cold-numbed halfbacks paved the way for all scoring\nand Toronto superiority in the air\nenabled Arj^os to score the one extra\npoint for victory. It was too cold a\nday for perfect football.\nLong-Awaited Insurgent General\nOffensive Starts on Three Fronts\nHENDAYE, Franco-Spanish Frontier, Dec. 12 (AP)\u2014The Spanish insurgent armies today launched their\nlong-awaited general offensive, insurgent authorities announced at\nIrun.

MacKenzie, coroner, Saturday afternoon returned a cerdict of accidental death, When they continued their\ninvestigation into the death of Theodore Swanson, head timberman of\nthe Kootenay Belle mine, who was\nkilled in a cave-in at the mine December 8. H, E. Miard, mine inspector for West Kootenay, was detained\nin Victoria and could not investigate the accident, so Mr. MacDonald took over his duties.\n\"Emphatically no, there is no responsibility on any one for negligence in connection with the accident, in my opinion. It might have\nhappened to any one,\" Mr. MacDonald declared.\nMr. MacDonald asserted it was his\nbelief that the miners might have\ndrilled into a subterranean water\ncourse, and though no extra large\nvolume of water was flowing, the\npressure of the water behind the\nsoft ground might have broken it\nthrough. He believed the water was\na highly contributing factor toward\nthe slide. Sometimes, Mr. MacDonald stated, there was an imperceptible movement of the ground when\nthere was water pressure behind it,\nand all that was needed to bring\ndown a slide was the force of a pick\nbeing driven into it or some other\nslight jarring.\nAll timbering and lagging was\nentirely satisfactory in the mine, he\nasserted. Although cedar was not\nthe most satisfactory timber to use\nfor supports, any timber would\nhave broken under the impact of\nthe heavy slide.\nDr, N. E. Morrison of Salmo testified to having seen tiie body of\nSwanson as it was brought out of\nthe mine, and stated the man had\nbeen dead for about 10 hours.\nRangers Wallop\nRed Wings by 5-1\nDETROIT, Dec. 12 (CP)- Detroit\nRed Wings slid deeper into the National Hockey league's sectional cellar tonight as they took a 5-2 beating from the second-place New York\nRangers.

While\nthe penalty shot is being taken players of both sides must withdraw to\nthe sides of the rink. The goal-keeper of the defending side must take\na stationary position immediately in\nfront of his goal, and must not advance more than a foot in front of\nhis goal line while the shot is being\ntaken. Should he fail to do so the\nreferee shall order another penalty\nshot.\n\"The player taking the penalty\nshot may 'warm up' before taking\nthe shot but must take possession\nof the puck when instructed by the\nreferee.

She had had a predecessor, but according to the editor of\n'  The Argus, the former woman mem-\nI ber had \"submitted to the will of\n!   others in contesting the seat, and\nI  exercised her own in leaving it.\"\nWomen's suffrage was granted in\n1908 in Victoria, voting was made\ncompulsory in 1924.\nThe new venturer in the assem-\nI  bly, according to the editor \"won\non positive qualities, not necessarily\n\u25a0   political, that overwhelmed a sub-\n>   urban    representative    who    was\nf   merely worthy.\"\nThere may be a sting in the tall\nof that last sentence, but the editor\n'\u2022\u25a0   goes on to set his conclusions on the\nwhole matter of \"Woman\".\n\"In Australia no woman can expect to remain in public life under\nthe sheltered system. Harsh, indeed.\nwould be the satire in these days\nagainst the proposition that a woman's sphere is her home. Not even\n;,   the most retiring or home-loving\nwoman would now venture to ex*\n':.   press such a view. Not that she\njf   would fear being backward politically but she would dread being\n|   outmoded in forms of speech.

As in most cases of social\nreform, the diagnosis is better than\nthe treatment.\nWe all recognize the symptoms\nwhich enddngcr civilization with\nthe increase of unemployment, the\nlack of business stability, danger V\nwar and lack of responsibility for\npublic affairs among private individuals. How it is going to work out\nnobody knows, and Mr. Wells seems\nto think there is quite a possibility\nthat it won't work out at all, and\nthat human civilization will disappear. He thinks that while we\nhave improved enormously in our\nmechanical devices, means of transportation and communication, the\nbrain organization of the modern\nworld has not been organized to\ndeal with the new problems which\nthese machines impose.\nPersonally, I am not so sure that\njj. this is possible. From what I know\nf \u2022 of human nature, mankind is a\nmechanical, not a mental, animal,\nwho will find his salvation in mechanical ways, and that the average\n\u2022population, even in times of war,\nwill find means of subsistence somehow, and carry on some semblance\nPILES\nWith & record of 50 years an a moit aal!\u00bb\nlaotory treatment for piles or hemorrhoid*\nyou can positively depend on\nDr. ChascVOintment\nof our modern civilization to hand\non to the next generation.\nMr. Wells' solution is to have an\nencyclopedia drawn up by the best\nminds of the world, and have everyone learn the facts about the\nuniverse. It seems strange that a\nman of Mr. Wells' historical outlook would not realize that we have\nhad encyclopedias from the very\nearliest days af printing, and before.\nEach of these contained a chapter\non medicine, and for that reason I\nhave been interested in them, because some of the early discoveries\nin medicine were written in these\nbooks. The \"Margherita Philosoph-\nia\" was one of these, which was\nprobably in Shakespeare's library.\nOne of the most interesting of the\nencyclopedists was Roger . Bacon,\nthat greatest \"apparition of the\nMiddle Ages\", and in one part of\nhis encyclopedic books he carefully\nconcealed in a cipher the invention\nby which he is best known today.\nIn this book the first eight chapters\nwere written in clear and readable\nLatin, but the following chapters,\naccording to an eminent scholar,\nread like so much gibberish.\nThe fact is that Bacon had devised what 4 it called the \"Argyle\nCipher\", which consists of a clever\nway of hiding sentences that are\nimportant under a lot of high\nsounding phrases and words. Allegedly he was discussing the elixir of\nlife and the philosopher's stone,\nand actually he described saltpetre\nand the making of gunpowder, and\nhe puts the most important sentence, which related to the proportions of the explosive mixture, in\nan anagram which successfully\nwithstood translation for almost 700\nyears.\n\u2122 jj FUEL\u2122 M\nFurnace\n1 CROW'S\nI\nStove or\nHeater\nFireplace     \u25a0\nCANMORE   I\nNEST        [ CALT  LUMP  I BRIQUETTES\nCoal Is Cheaper\nAND MORE DEPENDABLE\nWEST TRANSFER\nfuel Specialists Since 1899\nREAD THIS FIRST;\nJerry Chandler, son of a country\nclergyman in modest circumstances,\nenters Yale, thanks to a wealthy\nuncle. Because of his commonplace\nbackground, he feels himself an\noutsider until he meets Lionel CI?rk,\nof St, Louis in his senior year- Jerry\nfinds that Lionel is a cousin of\nMimi Le Brun, a girl he had admired several years before while\nvisiting Washington with his uncle.\nMimi, granddaughter of a' late\nsenator, is about to make her debut,\nLionel tells him. Jerry and Lionel\nare writing a play together.\nNow go on with the story:\nCHAPTER 9\nIt was in mid-winter that Lionel\nhad a letter from Mimi. They kept\nup a desultory correspondence, and\nnow and then he read a line or two\nto me. But this letter became mine\nto keep. I have it now, and so can\ngive it, word for word, as she wrote\nit in her modish, angular script, on\nsheet after sheet of paper headed\nwith a crest.\nLionel read it to me because I\nhappened to be in his room when\nit was handed to him. \"Poor old\nMimi,\" he said, when he had finished. \"She's been having it out\nwith Olga.\" He laughed and leaned\nback in his chair. \"Listen, Jerry,\nand see if it wouldn't make a scene\nin a play.\"\nI may as well confess that I\ntrembled as he read. It was like\nher own voice speaking. She wrote\nvery naturally and unaffectedly,\nand she poured out her heart to\nhim.\n\"You see, Lion, I had to put\npride in my pocket. I am to make\nmy debut next fall, and we have\nto plan ahead, Mother said that I\nshould only be asking for what\nwas mine, I went to Olga- And\nthat grandfather's heart would have\nbeen broken if he had known that\nI was to have my coming-out party\nin any other house but his.\n\"I don't want to have it there,\nThe darling Papins have offered,\nand the Dana Clarks. But mother\nwon't hear of . it. She says she\ncame out in the rose ballroom, and\nthat I must. I told her if grandfather had wanted me to have\nthings, he should have made a will\nand said so. And then she cried\nand insisted that Olga had influenced him, and that he had thought\nshe would do everything for us.\n\"Well, anyhow, I went. Olga\nhas been having some alterations\nmade in the house, and oh, Lion,\nit is dreadful. The hall looks like\nthe entrance lo the Grand Opera\nHouse in Paris \u2014 stairs sweeping\nup both ways, as they do on the\nstage, instead of the blessed old\nbanisters that you and I used to\nslide down.\n\"She seemed glad to see me. I\nwent in the afternoon, and she had\ntea for me. She has made grandfather's den over into a sort of\nTurkish Retreat. It is puffy with\ncushions of black and gold brocade,\nand she had on a teagown of pale\nblue chiffon with sleeves like wings,\nand she looked like a plump, blond\nprima donna.\n\"I know I am prejudiced, Lion,\nbut it was all so different in grandfather's day. She has had a balcony built at the end of the hall,\nand it overlooks a sort of wide\nfoyer which leads into the ballroom, and there, as large as life\nand as lovely as the artist\ncould make it, is my peacock portrait!\"\nLionel laid down the letter. \"I\ncan just see Mimi on that balcony,\nand Olga. You can't imagine two\npeople more unlike, Jerry.\"\nI nodded. I was breathless with\ninterest. The whole recital seemed\nlike something out of a book.\n\"We leaned over the balcony,\nlooking at the picture, and she\nsaid, in that slow way of hers,\n'One can't give too much wall-space\nto tltb works of an artist like that.'\nAnd I said, 'Well, he had a good\nsubject.' She stood lookng at the\npicture, and at last she said, 'He\nmakes you look older and handsomer than you are, Mimi, but not\nvainer.'\n\"Can you beat that, Lion? I\ndidn't know she had it in her. But\nI flung back, 'There's a difference\nbetween vanity and pride.' And\nshe said, 'But peacocks are vain,\naren't they?'\n\"Well, I was simply furious, and\nI wanted to tell her so. But I\nwasn't there for that, so I simply\nsaid, 'Well, I am glad he made me\nhandsome, so that when I am old\nand ugly I can come back and look\nat it.'\n\"We went back then to the Turk\nish Retreat, and tea came, and 1\ntalked to her. I told her how\nmother felt, and that I knew grandfather would have wanted it, and\nshe said, 'I think he would, and I\nwill do everything to make it a suc-\ncess-' And I said, 'Thank you, Olga,'\nand that seemed to be the end of it.\n\"But when we had finished our\ntea, she asked, 'What are you going to do after that?' and I said,\n'After what?' and she said, 'After\nyour coming-out party?' and I said,\n'Oh, I shan't have too much entertaining; our friends will help out.\nAnd she said 'I don't mean that.\nWhat are you going to do when\nyou've made your debut, and had\na winter of dances and parties?' and\nI laughed and said, 'I suppose I'll\nget married.'\n\"She sat looking at me, and do\nyou know, Lion, she gave me a\nqueer feeling, as if I were glass\nand transparent. And somehow I\nfelt small and mercenary, and\nfrightfully frivolous, until I suddenly remembered that it is she\nwho.is mercenary and small-minded, and unfair to you and to mother\nand me, so I stood up and said stiffly, 'I am sure it would have pleased\ngrandfather to know that I am to\nhave the rose ballroom,' and she\nsaid, 'I am sure it would please\nhim. But you mustn't expect too\nmuch of me, Mimi.'\n\"Lion, I felt utterly frozen when\nshe said that. And I got out as\nquickly as I could, and cried right\nin the street, and I had to hold up\nmy muff So that people wouldn t\nsee me. And when I got home,\nmother wasn't there. She had\ngone to Aunt Bcrnice's to play\nbridge. And so I am writing to\nyou, or I shall simply expire from\nsuppressed emotion.\n\"Oh, Lion, I loved grandfather,\nand it hurts and hurts and hurts,\nto thing he could have treated me\nlike this- I was so proud of him.\nAnd the last time we were in\nWashington I was so happy. Oh,\nI wonder if \\ am ever going to be\nhappy again.\"\nIt ended there, and I was torn\nby her distress, To think that she\nsuffered!\nLionel took it easily. \"Oh, well,\nMimi got what she wanted, so why\nshould she care?\"\nBut I felt that she should care,\nand. indeed, when I had time to\nthink of it all in colder blood, I\nwondered that she could ever have\nasked a favor at the hands of such\na woman. I contrasted the sturdy\npride of my own people, which\nwould have led us io work our\nfingers to the bone rather than receive help from one who gave it\ngrudgingly.\nWe called Olga, after that, \"the\nOgre.\" We decided to put her in\nour play. She was to be the vil-\nlainess and was to be overthrown\nin the end.\n\"No chance of that in real life,\"\nLionel said, \"but we can do as wc\nplease on paper.\"\nHe answered the, letter, and it\nlay for a long time in a basket on\nhis table. At last I carried it off.\nIt was such a treasure, with its\nthin, crested paper and its cry for\nhappiness! I knew that Lionel\nwould not miss it, and that if he\ndid he would think it lost. I should\nnot confess my theft to him.\n(To Be Continued)\nCRESTON SHUTTLE\nPLAYERS DEFEAT\nCRANBROOK 11-9\nCRESTON, B. C-Mr. and Mrs.\nJ. P. MacDonald, Mr. and Mrs. T. H,\nWilson, Mrs. M. B.

But II you\ndesire to know how unique the\naverage woman's coiffure is, look\naround at some of the women you\nkr.ow, and observe the manner tn\nwhich they part their hair. You'll\nfind, probably, very few who do not\npart their tresses on the side, for\nmost women, once they adopt a\ncertain hair parting, never think\nof trying a different one!\nBeauticians say that It Is a wise\nthing to change the part of the hair\noccasionally. The blood grows somewhat sluggish wben the hair is continually parted in the same place.\nAnd for good hair health, the circulation in the. scalp should be brisk\nand vigorous, so that the hair follicles will be given plenty of nourishment.\nThe centre part has been more or\nless in the discard for some time.'\nBut since our new styles demand\nthat we appear demure and romantically feminine, it would seem\nthat the centre part Is to be restored to favor once again.\nOf course, it stands to reason that\nthe centre part will not prove becoming to everyone. If you have\nirregular features or a gaunt', thin\nface, the centre part will not prove\nvery flattering. What's more, if you\nhave a low brow, the middle part\nwill only emphasize it. And it will\ndo the same for the extremely high\nforehead.\nThe girl with a long, thin face\nBhould avoid a centre part always, a\u00ab\nit will accentuate the length of her\nface. And the tall girl will appear\neven taller if she adopts it, for the\nmiddle part is especially becoming\nto the damsel with a normal forehead, ah oval or heartshaped face\nand regular features.\nNELSON Social..\nBy MRS.

S. (CP)-Tom\nNass, of this south shore fishing\ntown, was glad to be walking around\ntoday. A delivery truck he was driving careened down the street, side-\nswiped another truck, mounted the\nsidewalk and crashed through the\ndoors of a feed stock room. The driver was unhurt.\nBy   MRS.   MARY   MORTON\nMenu Hint\nLamb Stew With Noodles\nButtered Carrots      Celery Pickles\nMolasses Spice Cake\nTea or Coffee\nFollowing are the directions for\nmaking the lamb stew with noodles, according to Inez S. Willson's\nrecipe,\nCubes cut from the lamb shoulder, breast, neck or shank are Used.\nThese cuts are boned, and cut in\none-half to one-inch cubes. They\nare browned in hot lard, seasoned with salt and pepper, covered\nwith hot water and simmered gently until the meat is tender, about\none and a half hours.\nNOODLES COOKED\nSEPARATELY\nTlie noodles are cooked separately in boiling salted water and placed on the platter as a bed for the\nmeat cubes. The noodles are sprinkled with poppy seed for flavor. The\nliquid in which the lamb is cooked\nis thickened with flour, smoothed\nin cold water, and served with the\nlamb and noodles.\nIn preparing a stew, it is important that the meat should be cooked\nat a simmering temperature, rather\nhan at the higher temperature of\nboiling. While a low temperature\nin cooking meat increases tenderness, a high temperature for any\nconsiderable length of time decreases the tenderness in meat. Therefore, a simmering temperature is\nrecommended for all meats which\nare cooked in water.\nBROWNING  IS  OPTIONAL\nWhether or not the meat is browned before water is added for the\nstew depends upon personal preference. Browning does give the\nstew a delicious flavor, but for the\nsake of variety, it may be that you\nwill want to omit this step occasionally. Unbrowned stews are\naulte acceptable, and arc prepared\nin exactly the same-way as described with the exception of browning.\nThe meat is seasoned, covered with\nhot water, the kettle covered tightly, and the meat allowed to cqok\nslowly until done. If desired, the\nnoodles may be cooked in the lamb\nbroth, so that they will take up\npart of the deicious meat flavor.\nChristmas Gifts . .\nEarly Training in\nSelf-Denial Will\nAid Child Later\nBy GARRY C. MYERS, PH. D.\nYOU AND I can afford to give\nsome thought to mjiral values for\nour children, in relation to Christmas gifts within the family. The\naverage tot has an orgy of receiving\ngifts \"from Santa Claus\". Later, from\nhis parents and others. So strongly\nand so early does he acquire the attitude ' of always receiving, that he\nnaturally gets very little of the spirit\nof giving. Essentially his Christian\ntraining for years is in selfishness.\nEven while he still believes in\nSanta Claus, there should be a gift\nor so \"from Mother and Daddy\".\nGradually the proportion of his gifts\n\"from Mother and Daddy\", or from\nother persons, should increase while\nthose \"from Santa Claus\" should decrease correspondingly. This gradual\nshift will help him make gradual\nemotional adjustment to the myth of\nSanta Claus.\nI assume that your little child\nhas been led to believe in Old Saint\nNick. You must decide on that matter, of course, but as soon as he\nasks you if Santa is a real person,\nyou will calmly and frankly answer\n\"NO; we have just been playing\nthat he is real\", and that you will go\non pretending wilh. the child as\nlong as he cares to have you do so.\nGIVE TOT SOME\nMONEY\nIt Is well to give the tot four or\nfive a little money\u2014better to induce him to' sate his pennies for it\n\u2014to buy an inexpensive gift for\neach of his parents, who will receive it with deep and sincere appreciation. As he grows older, if\nthere are other children, let him\nalso provide a gift for each of them.\nGreatest moral values come to\nchildren when they make self-sacrifices over a number of days, weeks\nor months, in order to purchase a\ngift for one they love; and the\ngreater the self-denial the greater\nthe joy and love in the giver from\nhis giving.\nLet a Want Ad Do It!\nHave They Right!\nBy VIRGINIA LEE\n\"Dear Miss Lee: Are one's elders\nalways right?\" asks a disgruntled\nyouth. By no means. Parents are\npeople, believe it or not, and they\nmake mistakes just like the rest of\nus.\nHowever, this young man, whom\nI will call GENE, cites hi. case in\nwhich he thinks his parents made a\n\"drastic mistake.\"\nIt seems he was offered a Job\nwhich involved several other men.\nHe asked his parents' opinion and\nthey told him they didn't care what\nhe did, so, knowing that that remark was tantamount to consent,\nhe went ahead.\nThe night before he was to start\nhis new project his parents told him\nhe could not go thrtugh with it\u2014\nthat he must call the whole thing\noff. Gene thinks his parents have a\nright to dictate to him to a certain\nextent, but when they let him go on\nwith a project that involves other\npeople, ond then make him give\nit up. at the last moment, he thinks\nthat is going too far.\nGene wants my reactions to the\nold phrase \"you'll learn yet\" which\nseems to have been hurled at him.\nI'd have to know more about tha\ndeal you tell me about, Gene, before I could give a very intelligent\nopinion. In other words, I would\nhave to hear your parents' side of\nthe matter. That might make what\nseems an injudicious procedure the\nproper thing to do.\nI agree with you that parents\nshould examine a project that their\nchildren are going into to see if it\nis all right, and then let them Work\nit out without interference. 'So,\nfrom your point of view they had\nno right to smash your plans at the\nlast moment, causing you and your\nassociates embarrassment.\nYour parents must think you do\nnot make altogether wise choices or\nthey would not so often tell you\n\"you'll learn yet.\" Such a saying\ngets a bit monotonous after a while,\nI'll agree, and I hope you WILL\nlearn, and very soon, if you need\nlo.

This similarity is recognized by\nMussolini himself, who' has studied very carefully the\nphysical causes of Napoleon's downfall in order to avoid\nthe fate of the Emperor.\"\nThe success of Napoleon, as analysed by the author\nin this medical biography, depended not only on his brilliant mind and vision but also on the extraordinary dynamic\nforce generated by his endocrine glands. They should he\ncalled the glands of destiny. Unquestionably, Napoleon\nhad an unusual over-activity of all his glands, but particularly of pituitary and adrenal. With middle age these two\nglands showed a deep decline. A state hypofunction of\npituitary and adrenal replaced their previous activity. His\nobesity, slow pulse, gastric disturbances, hesitation, impotence all were but symptoms of glandular disturbance. ,\n\"Mussolini has taken the tip and lives according to\nthe last word of medical science,\" says Dr. Sokoloff.\n\"Napoleon was the masler of his body until he stopped\nobeying the, strict rules of hygiene. If a modern endocrinologist had been consulted on Napoleon's condition, he would\nhave prescribed a regime of strenuous physical exercise\nand corriplete relaxation afterward. This type of regime\nMussolini has elected as his way of life. Therefore, from\nthe medical point of view he has a better chance of continuing his dictatorship longer.\n\"Hitler, oh the other hand, is much more emotional, and\nhis system of life much less modern. He may face the decline\nof his endocrine system much earlier than Mussolini. He\nis less of a megalomaniac, however, than either Mussolini\nor Napoleon.\n\"In resume,\" Dr. Sokoloff declares, physical degeneration of dictators is unavoidable, It is the law Of nature.\nNobody can abuse power indefinitely without exhausing\nhis endoctrine system. Stalin, Hitler and Mussolini will\nsuffer the fate of Napoleon, but when that may happen\nwe cannot predict.\"\nCONTRACT  MT\"\nBRIDGE BARCLAY\nSAFE TO JUMP\nSUPPOSE your partner haa bid\nno trump, and your hand contains\n- a solid suit, Including every possible stopper ln that suit.

C.\ntitlists, in their first meeting of the\nKootenay Hockey league series Saturday night at the Nelson arena.\nThe Leafs were one goal better than\nthe remainder of the Trail team,\nbut that 5-1 margin just about represented the play. Trail's five counters were scored by Dave Duchak,\nD. Kowcinak and John McCreedy,\nKowcinak getting three, Duchak one\nand two assists, and McCreedy one.\nNelson's single goal was notched\nby Nick Smith to open the third\nperiod after Smoke Eaters had tallied one in each of the first and\nsecond cantos to lead 2-0.\nTwo hundred Trail fans who followed their team by special train\nleft no doubt as to Smoke Eater\nsupport this season. And the support given Maple Leafs, a doubtful\nmatter before the game, was solidified and cemented by the fighting\nperformance produced by the erstwhile champions.\nNO LACK OF\n8PEED\nNeither team lacked anything for\nspeed from the faceoff, and line\nchanges were made frequently to\nmaintain it. Trail's man-to-man\nchecking and solid bodying produced a tight defence that gave Nelson few opportunities to extend\nGoalie Duke Scodellaro, while at\nthe other end Nelson checks permitted their man to break away repeatedly.

(technical knockout, in second\nround.)\nmoments as Duchak, McCreedy and\nKowcinak put on the heat\nMilling off to the side of the net\nand sucking in the whole Nelson\nteam, the .Trail front line opened it\nup for McCreedy, hanging on his\nright wing position, to take Duchak's\npass and beat McKay cleanly for\nthe opening tally.\nFIRST NELSON BREAK\nBicknell broke through for the\nfirst real Nelson opportunity but\nshot to Scodellaro's stick. Carr was\nclose when he went in fast on the\nwing to take the rebound of Nick\nSmith's long shot to the boards.\nKwasnie's penalty for tripping\nSmith brought out the power play,\nbut Trail outscrambled the Leafs,\nScodellaro was right there when\nMcPhee got in.\nScodellaro saw fast action early\nin the second but was adequately\ncovered each time.\nJohnny Smith got his first taste\not action half way - through the\nperiod, serving on both lines, as\nLeafs took their turn at forcing tho\naction to the opposing blue line.\nTrail got four men away on a rush\nas two Leaf attackers went down\nat the blue line, but Sutherland\nbroke it up.\nTight, man-to-man checking with\nquarter neither asked nor given\nmade it plenty exciting for the\nrailbirds. Each team breaking fast,\nwith the goalies alternately going\nacrobatic, put a permanent crimp in\na good many throats. Trail presented a great defensive game, covering every Nelson man who got in on\nattacks.\nSECOND GOAL\nSmoke Eaters blinked the light a\nsecond time from a melee as Duchak\nbattled the Nelson defence on the\nboards and plopped the rubber out\nin front, Kowcinak picking up the\nlively disk to find the hemp as the\nperiod drew to a close.\nThe pace continued hot at the\nstart of the third, Trail dominating\nthe play until Morris drew two minutes for upsetting Bicknell. The\nfirst power drive was driven back,\nbut on the second, Nick Srnith\npicked up a hot rebound off the\nboards and beat the Duke.\nTaking the puck in his own area\nafter the faceoff on which Morris\ngot back, Duchak travelled down\nsolo and blasted a high one past\nMcKay.    ,\nDuchak was banished for riding\nNick Smith on the boards and Leafs\ncame out with five-man drives\nagain, Trail producing three defences to stem it. They did.\nIt was end to end until the Trail\nflash attack got back in and pulled\nMcKay out of his net Bill weathered the first drive but he had no\nchance when Kowcinak, unchecked,\npicked up the puck on the boards,\npulled him out again, and poked\nthe puck in. McKay and Sutherland\ncombined to rob Snowden as the\nTrail defenceman got his best opportunity of the night.\nPat Aitken sent out four forwards in a last minute drive for\ngoals. The first referee's call for\nshooting up the ice while at full\nstrength paved the way for Trail's\nfifth counter as Trail broke from\ntheir own zone after the faceoff,\nDuchak carrying the puck and Kowcinak scoring on his pass as McKay went down and the Leaf defence became scrambled.\nTHE STATISTICS\nFirst Period \u2014 1, Trail, McCreedy\n(Duchak) 7:45.\nPenalties \u2014 Kwasnie.\nSecond Period \u2014 2, Trail, Kowcinak, 18:29,\nPenalties \u2014 None.\nThird Period \u2014 3, Nelson, Smith,\n4:45; 4, Trail, Duchak, 6:05; 5, Trail,\nKowcinak, 13:19; 6, Trail, Kowcinak\n(Duchak), 19:35.\nPenalties \u2014 Morris, Duchak.\nTEAMS:\nTrail \u2014 Scodellaro, goal; Johnston, Kwasnie, Morris and Snowden,\ndefence; Duchak, McCreedy and\nKowcinak; Cronie, Andreashuk and\nDame, forwards.\nNelson \u2014 McKay, goal; Bicknell,\nAtwell and Sutherland, defence; Kilpatrick, Carr and Nick Smith; Duckworth, Euerby and McPhee, Johnny\nSmith, forwards.\nOfficials \u2014 Leo Desireau, referee;\nT, R.

Services 0 inspector H. H.\nFairbanks were dispensed with at\nthe end of the week, when he returned to his home at Harrop.\nThe slower-than-usual fruit trade\nis blamed on two causes. Wholesalers complain that the distribution of free fruit in the dried out\nareas was altogether too generous.\nAt more than one point supplies\nwere so large that even the well to\ndo had to be given apples in order\nto dispose of the donated product.\nThe jobbers, too, complain that\nfruit trucked in from Creston and\nthe Arrow Lakes has been sold in\nquantity at prices the wholesaler\ncannot meet. With colder weather\nprevailing the truck trade will not\nbe a factor.\nChief- activity at the Exchange\nis the putting up of a quantity of\nDelicious and Mcintosh Red in\nhalf-box lots to take care of some\nChristmas demand for the smaller\ncontainer. Exchange growers will\nthis week be favored with an advance on all winter varieties to help\nwith Christmas shopping.\nW. McL. Cooper, Echange manager, returned Saturday from 0\nbusiness visit to Lethbridge where\nhe found retail conditions in line\nwith complaints by the jobbers. Although the Okanagan is reported to\nbe putting out \"Macs\" and Delicious in a 14-pound box, Mr.\nCooper did not come across the\npackage in southern Alberta. It is\nreported to be proving popular at\nVancouver.\nThe larger sizes in these two\nvarieties are featured, providing\nfrom 18 to 27 apples per box. It is\nslatted on top, providing a view of\nthe fruit. And so as to provide an\nadditional eye-catcher the middle\nrow of apples has been left unwrapped, while the others have\nbeen put up in decorative wraps\nwith a Christmas season tone to\nthem.\nVancouver Stock Exchange\nQuotations on Wall Street\nHigh\n78%\n4%\n15\nAm Can \t\nAm For Power\nAm Mch & Fdy\nAm Smelt & Re\nAm Telephone. 150\nAm Tobacco ....   65\nAnaconda     32%\nAtchison     41%\nAuburn Motors    7\nAviation Corp ..\nBaldwin Loco ..\nBait Sc Ohio ....\nBendix Av \t\nBeth  Steel  \t\nBorden\nLow   Close\n3%\n9%\n12%\n13%\n57\n17%\nCanada Dry    14%\nC P R\nChes Sc Ohio\nChrysler \t\nCon Gas N Y\nCorn Prods ,\nC Wright pfd\nDupont\nEastman Kodak 163\nEl Pow Sc Lite   13%\nErie      8\nFord English ...\nFord of Canada\nFirst Nat Stores\nFreeport Texas\nGeneral Electric 43%\nGeneral Foods. 32\nGeneral Motors   94%\nGoodrich       17\nGranby       4%\nGrt  North   pfd   26\nGrt West Sgar   29%\nHecker Prods ..\nHowe Sound ....\nInt Nickel \t\nInt Tel Sc Tel\nKenn Copper ....\nKresge S S .:..\n8%\n38%\n57\n25\n63%\n3%\n116\n8%\n16%\n30%\n21%\n6%.\n49\n44\n7%\n37 Vi\n16%\n78%\n4%\n14%\n48%\n149%\n65\n31%\n40%\n7\n3%\n9%\n12%\n12%\n55%\n17%\n14%\n8%\n38%\n56%\n24%\n63%\n3%\n115%\n162\n13%\n8\n8%\n16%\n30%\n21%\n42%\n31%\n34%\n17\n4%\n25%\n29%\n6%\n47%\n43%\n7%\n36%\n16\n78%\n4%\n14%\n48%\n149%\n65\n31%\n41%\n7\n3%\n9%\n12%\n13%\n56%\n17%\n14%\n8%\n:iii3i\n56%\n24%\n63%\n3%\n115%\n163\n13%\n8\n8%\n16%\n30%\n21%\n43%\n32 .\n34%\n17\n26*\n29%\n6%\n40\n43%\n7%\n37%\n16\nKroegger Sc T .\nMack Truck\n16\",\n21%\nMilwaukee pfd. 1%\nMont Ward   34%\nNash Motors .... 11\nNat Dairy Prod 14%\nNat Pow Sc Lite 8%\nN Y Central .... 19%\nPac Gas Sc Elec 26%\nPackard Motors 4%\nPenn R R   22%\nPhillips Pete ... 40%\nPure  Oil    11%\nRCA   7\nR K O   4%\nRem Rand     14\nSafeway Stores 21%\nShell Union Oil 16%\nS Cal Edison ..\nSouth  Pacific...\nStan Oil of Cal\nStan Oil of Ind\n21\n22%\n29%\n33%\nStan Oil of N J   44%\nStewart Warner\nStudebaker   \t\nTexas Corp\nTexas Gulf Sul\nTimken Roller..\nUnder Type ....\nUn Carbide ....\nUnion Oil of C\nUnited Aircraft\nUnited Biscuit.\nUnion Pacific ..\nU S Pipe \t\nU S Rubber ....\nU S Steel   \t\nVanadium Steel\nWarner Bros ..\nWest Elec \t\nWest Union  ....\nWoolworth \t\nWrigley ....,\t\nYellow Trulk ..\n10%\n5%\n40%\n29%\n43\n52\n74%\n19%\n23%\n18\n85%\n29%\n27%\n57%\n16%\n7%\n109%\n26%\n36%\n61%\n10%\n10%\n21%\n1%\n34%\n11\n14%\n8%\n19%\n25%\n4%\n22%\n39%\n11%\n6%\n4%\n13%\n21%\n16%\n21\n22%\n2!)\n33%\n44\n10%\n5%\n39%\n29%\n42%\n52\n74%\n19%\n21%\n18\n85%\nP%\n27%\n56%\n16%\n7%\n197%\n26%\n38\n60%\n10%\n16%\n21%\n1%\n34%\n11\n14%\nLISTED Bid\nA P Con  30\nAmal Oil  05\nAztec   Mining 06%\nBig Miss   \u25a0 .37\nBrit Dom Oil       -16\nBralorne Gold     7.90\nBrew & Dist ..:    4.75\nC & E Corp     2.80\nCalmont Oil  54\nCariboo Gold     1.68\nConst Brew    12.80\nCommonwealth   Oil    .3)3\nDentonia  10%\nGold Belt  25\nHargal Oil  31\nHome  Oil      1.40\nInt Coal      -21\nIsland Mount      .68\nKoot Belle  97\nMak Siccar 01%\nMcDougal Segur Ex     .23\nMcLeod Oil      '.21\nMinto Goid  03%\nModel Oil  \"   .41\nPioneer Gold     2.95\nPremier Gold     1.88\nPremier Border  01%\nQuatsino 03\nRelief Ail 14%\nReno Gold  58\nReeves Mac  36\nSally Mine  06\nSalmon Gold 06\nSheep  Creek  90\nSilbak Premier     2.05\nTaylor B R  04\nVanalta Ltd      \u2014\nVidette   .,      \u2014\nWesko        \u2014\nYmir Yankee Girl.    .21\nCURB\nAnaconda         09%\nAnglo Canadian ....   1.71\nAssoc Oil 06\nBaltac Oil  05\nBluebird  00%\nB C Nickel  10%\nB R Mount       \u2014\nCapital Estates     3.25\nCongress    02\nCrow's Nest new ..     .03%\n.75\n19%\n26%\n4%\nZ'.v,\n40%\n11%\n6%\n'\\*\n14\n2s %\n16%\n21\n22%\n29%\n33%\n41';,\n10%\n5%\n40%\n29%\n43\n52\n74%\n19%\n22%\n18\n85%\n29%\n27%\n57%\n16%\n7%\n109\n26%\n38%\n60%\n10% Dalhousie Oils\nAsk\n.32\n.06%\n.07\n.37%\n800\n2.83\n.55\n1.70\n12.05\n.39\n.11%\n.75\n1.00\n.23%\n.30\n.03%\n.43\n3.(10\n1.90\n.01%\n.04\n.17\n.40\n.10\n.07%\n.93\n2.10\n.08%\n.17\n.09%\n.24\n.10%\n1.77\n.06\n.12\n.04%\n3.50\n.02%\n.04%\n.78\nDavies Pete\t\nDunwcll Mining .\nFairview Amal ....\nFederal Gold \t\nFirestone Pete \t\nFoundation Pete ..\nFoothills G & 0 ....\nFour Star Pete \t\nFreehold Oil \t\nGeo  Copper   \t\nGeo Enterprise ....\nGeo River \u201e\t\nGoiconda\t\nGold Mont \t\nGrandview \t\nGrull  Wihksne  ...\nHaida\t\nHighwood Sarcee\nHome Gold \t\nIndian Mines\nBid\n.43\n.04%\n.OHi\n.19\n.19%\n.85\n.24\n.06%\n.20\n.02'.\n.01\n.05%\n.01%\n.08%\n.07\n.05%\n.16%\n.01%\n.01%\nAsk\n.44\n.05\n.05\n.07\nMetal Markets\nNEW YORK, Dec. 11 (API-Copper steady; electrolytic spot and future 10.25-11; export 10.05.\nTin steady; spot and future 44.75\nnominal.\nLead steady; New York spot 5-\n6.05; East St. Louis 4.85.\nZinc steady; East St. Louis spot\nand future 5.00.\nMONTREAL\nSpot: Copper, electrolytic, 11.65\ntin 47; lead 4.95; zinc 4.89; antimony\n16,00; per 100 pounds f.o:b.

C.\nCommand to discuss with the cabinet resolutions passed at the 1937\nprovincial convention at Penticton.\nThe sale of poppies and wreaths\nfor Armistice Day handled by the\nLadies' Auxiliary, was the biggest on\nrecord; proceeds from the dance\nwere pleasing, and the Legion and\nLegion auxiliary dinner encourag\ning. The meeting went on record as\napproving a Christmas tree December 22.\nA resolution was unanimously\nadopted calling for the appointment\nof a pensions advocate to serve the\ninterior, as it was felt the territory\ncovered by the present advocate was\naltogether tob large to admit of him\ndoing the work adequately.\nA.

P. MacDonald, in charge of\nlocal forestry work. For the season\n23 fires were reported and aout\n$425 was spent in extinguishing the\nblazes. The loss of merchantable\ntimber would be about $25.\nThe most serious outbreak was\none early in the year at Lake-\nview, in the Alice Siding district on\nwhich a crew ot 45 men was employed two days.\nFour lookout stations served the\ndistrict and prompt work by the\nmen in charge, coupled with a year\nwhen there was little smoke, were\nfactors in producing the remarkably\nfine showing. Effective service was\nrendered by W. M. Archibald who,\nin his plane trips across the district, was alert in not only reporting outbreaks, but also in flying\nforestry officials out to accurately\ndetermine the location of the blaze\nand how best to get fighters in to\nhandle outbreaks.\nThe season's work included trail\nbuilding to facilitate travel to the\nlookout at the head of Thompson\nCreek. Frank Tompkins was in\ncharge of a camp of 14 youths who\nhave completed the trail to within\na quarter mile of the lookout\u2014replacing a trail with a 47 per cent\ngrade in places, with a 4-foot road\nboasting not more than 12 per\ncent grade at any point. Next season the grade will be completed and\na modern lookout station built and\nequipped.\nMr. MacDonald expects junipr\nforestry camps, which have been\nutilized the past two years, will\nbe established in 1938, and after\ncompleting the Thompson Creek\nlookout trail attention will be given\nto trail construction to serve the\nBoundary country from Yahk. 24\nmiles of it have been laid out most\nof which can be constructed on an\nabandoned logging railroad.\nFLYING CLUB IS\nKIMBERLEY PLAN\nKIMBERLEY, B. C\u2014An enthusiastic meeting was held Sunday when\nbudding aviators gathered to discuss\nprospects for their future. It was\nfound that if from 20 to 25 members\ncould be obtained to put up $100\neach, a small plane could be purchased and a qualified instructor\nbrought in. Ten of those present\nsigned up immediately and it is\nknown that several more are willing\nto join, so it looks as if Kimberley\nwill start flying as soon as spring\ncomes.\nFlowers on Market\nVegetables Leave\nDisappearing for the season, cauliflower and green peppers pulled\nthe list of green vegetables for sale\nstill lower on Saturday's Vernon\nstreet market. Articles in the miscellaneous section took a jump upwards with the addition of dill\npickles, various kinds of imitation\nflowers and more jams and pickles.\nCut in intricate design-from a jam\ntin a bouquet of imitation roses\nwas the object of many admiring\neyes.
