It- was alright\nwhen public opinion was aglow\nwith the righteousness of chastisement. The broad hand is a\nsure cure for ererything, but we\nlive ia an age of ptohibitlon, and\nthe right medicine is not always\nconvenient.\nAcfing for shareholders of the\nProvidence Mining Company, Mr,\nR.

The meeting will be held in\nGreenwood on June 28th next.\nBehind the application is alleged\nto be a dispute between .the present directorate and the British\nColumbia shareholders of the property. Last week an action for\nforeclosure by the \"debenture holders was started, and it is alleged\nthat the debentures are held largely by the directors, the majority of\nwhom ref ide in Chicago.\nBritish .Columbia-' shareholders\nstated that contrary to the provisions of the company's act which\nsays that an annual general meeting must be held each year, the\npresent directorate has .not held\nany general_ meeting since February, 1921. \/\n~ The Providence Mine is located\nnear Greenwood and iB one ofthe\nwell-known mining properties in\nthe interior.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdVancouver World.\nLate Martin Anderson\nt H.

All are\nwelcome to these services. -\n' Last winter the Social Club of\nAnaconda brought that place\ninto social prominence as\" being a\ncentre., of great social activity.\nOn Thursday, June Sth, it was\nagain-brought to-the front\" when\nabout SO people gathered in the\nschool house for a joint social\nevening for Mr. aud Mrs. J.\nWood, of Nelson, and a farewell\nto Dick Pasco, who left on Monday for Copper \"Mountain; ~ The\nparty for Mr. \"and Mrs. Wood was\narranged by Mrs. T. Hartland,\nwhilst A. E. Wanke was responsible for the farewell to Dick\nPasco. The evening was most\nenioyably spent in dancing, singing and recitations. Supper was\nserved at midnight and the party\nkept up until an early hour in\nthe morning.\nThe churches were once community centres. Iu small towns\naud m the country that position\nis almost lost to them now. The\nauto and the Sunday picnic haye\nnot done all the mischief. In\nthe days when the follies of the\nchurch consisted of feathers and\nfurbelows the congregation filled\nthe edifices to overflowing, but\nwhen German theology with its\nvague questionings and iasidu-\nous demands came, the' scattering commenced. A manufacturer\nonce wrote an article the title of\nwhich was \"There is no Hell.\"\nHe took it to his printer, who refused to publish it, and at once\nlost the considerable printing of\nwhich the manufacturer -had the\ncommand. The publisher refused to publish that article in\nhis paper because he knew the\nchu\ufffd\ufffdch people would not stand\nfor it. The same church people\nwould not lose much sleep over\nthat now. Of course there is\nmuch of the sew theology that is\ninspiring, but no people but the\nAnglo-Saxons have the gift of\ngrafting the new upon the old\nwithout revolution. So the push-\nfulness of ~our foreign theology\nmade a mess of our coaatry\nchurch centres.\nMartin Anderson passed awaj\nat his home in Anaconda on Tuesday evening after a short illness of\nonly a few days at the age of 55\nyears. Heart failure \"and kidney\ntrouble was the cause of death.\nHe was born in Sweden on March\n20th, lg67 and came to the States\nwhen but a lad of 18 years.\nTwenty-three years ago he located\nin this district \"and was_one of the\nfew survivors who helped to build\nthe smelter in Greenwood and was\nforeman in the sample mill for a\nnumber of years.\nHa was- a man of excellent\nhabit8,-fine moral character, and\nsturdy constitution, and he continued to be active in hia. accustomed pursuits until a few_ days\nbefore his death. He met most of\nthe conditions and-situations of\nlife with a joke. He was a practical matter-of-fact man, bu1 had\nhis own peculiar way of extracting\nmerriment from life as it went\nalong, and he was -not disposed to\nworry about matters that could be\nbettered in other ways. ThiB\ncheerful spirit remained~with him\nto the last. When he died, practically a young man, yet ready to\nbe gathered to hia fathers, the\ngrief that was felt, over the close of\nhis career was widespread and\nsincere.\" His beet monument will\nbe the good report that, he has left\nbehind him in the community in\nwhich he has lived for nearly a\nquarter of a century.

Mere are to\nbe seen many powerful examples of\nhow easy it is to destroy and how\ndifficult it will be to build up.\nOdessa once boasted two huge\nsugar relineries. Together they employed nearly 10,000 persons, but today they are idle and almost in\nruins. Another 2,000 men were employed in the big rope manufacturing\nplant on the outskirts of the city. Tlie\nfactory will have to be practically rebuilt before it can open again. The\nbrick-making industry had 20 factories in and near here in pre-war days,\nbut all of them are falling to pieces.\nThere were once three shipbuilding)\nplants,, the largest employing S.000 I\n~m.cn and turning out vessels ot 3,000 \ufffd\ufffd* Scott\ntons and more. The Soviet Government now operates it, at one-eighth\ncapacity. Three chemical factories\nhave not been operated since 1917,\nand a French factory for making soil\nphosphates shares tlie same fate. It\nonce required eight big plants, to can\nthe fish caught in the Black Sea. The\nfish are still there, but thc factories\nlong ago ceased to function.\nTwo jewelry. factories have been\nclosed for several years, as have\nthree plants for making'' vegetable\noils and two others where matches\nwero made in more prosperous days.\nThe making of sugar ^anrt grain bags\nwas a big industry here, employing\nthousands of persons. Odessa also\nhad factories for the making of cloth\nproducts, nails, cement, machinery,\nglass, shoes, paints and varnish, cork,\nlinoleum and carpets, but gaunt, decaying buildings are all that is left to\nrecall that time.\nA Letter from Captain Scott to\nJames Barrie\nSir James Carrie has just made one\nof the most remarkable speeches of\nmodern times.\nHe was being installed as Rector of\nGlasgow University, and seized the\nopportunity to give the students and\nothers present a straightforward glowing talk about the true courage.\nIn the course of it he said: \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\n\"I should like lo read you some\npassages of a letter from a man of\nanother calling, which I think will\nhearten you. -I have the little filmy\nsheets here.
