Lectures by V. K. So-\nharev, Slocan City pioneer who now\nlives at Nelson, were given at intervals from the time the show opened at 2 p.m., until some time after it\nclosed. When the last flower had\nbeen taken home by its' purchaser\njusJt before 10 p.m., Mr. Soharev was\nin the midst of another lecture.\nThe beekeepers' display stressed\nthe necessity of bees to flowers- and\nof flowers to bees. A large chart illustrated the work of a colony of\nbees, pointing out that flowers supply bees with honey and bees pol-\nlenize or fertilize the flowers.\nOne' colony of \"good average\nstrength, 80,000 be.es, according to\nscientific data, gathers 20 pounds of\nhoney. This necessitated 6,000,000 visits to individual flowers. In 300,000\ntrips, three miles to a trip, the col-\nonyVould travel 900,000 miles.\nThe colony would build an average of three frames in a day, manufacturing a pound of wax. This took\n15 pounds of honey as honey is used\nto make the wax. Pollen is gathered\nand stored in combs.\nThis meant that nearly 7,000,000\nflowers would be pollenized by a\ncolony, thereby increasing crops of\nfruit, vegetables and seeds.\nThe bees also take water and, salt\nto the hives to be used :long with\npollen and honey to make food for\nthe larvae. A young brood, about\n12,000 individuals, would be fed six\ntimes a day, or 72,000 meals. They\nalso keep a brood warm, and* ventilate and protect it. Each bee knows\nand does its own job according to\nage and capacity.\nIn making a pound of honey,\u2022 a\nbee would travel the equivalent of\n13 coast to coast crossings of Canada.\nSHOW LIVE BEE3\nBesides the fact-filled chart, the\nBee Club had on display live bees\nin an observation hive, a collection of the best nectar secreting\nflowers for bees, a hive, supers with\nframes, escape boards, a smoker, a\nveil, extractor and an uncapping\nknife. Some home-made devices to\nhelp in nailing, wiring and embedding the wax in frames and a few\nsamples of honey were also displayed. Best nectar-containing flowers\nwere sweet clover, white Dutch clover, alfalfa, fireweed, milkweed,\ndandelions, fruit blooms, thistles and\nmignonette.\nMembership of the West Kootenay Bee Association was now 150\nit was stated.\nEscape Gap in Mad Contusion as\nHuns Attempt to Break Trap\nBy ROSS MUNRO\nCanadian Press War Correspondent\nWITH THE CANADIAN ARMY\nIN FRANCE, Aug. 20 (CP Cable)\n\u2014The now-closed .German escape\ngap near Trim was in mad confusion today as encircled, remnants of the smashed German 7th\nArmy made a last frantic effort to\nbreak out to the East.\nOn the plains between Trun and\nChambois the enemy collected about\n70 tanks from half-dozen of its beaten divisions and these tried to ram\nthrough the Canadian and .Ppjlshr\nforces.\nThe Canadian feuns shelled the for\nmations.

After a short\ntime the cramp, or rather the pain,\nfor it may exist without actual muscular spasm, goes away and the\nwalk can be continued. This condition is called intermittent limping,\nor claudication, and closely analb-\ngous to heart pang or angina pectoris.\nIt is almost certainly due to shutting off of the blood supply to the\nmuscles, the result of hardened, in-\nelastto and narrowed arteries in\nthe latter periods of life. The exertion of walking makes the muscles\ndemand more oxygen and more\nblood, and this demand the narrowed arteries, cannot meet. With the\nperiod of rest the muscles get enough\noxygen so that they stop grumbling,\nand the walking can be resumed\nuntil the blood supply proves inadequate again.

I thought he\nwas at least 23 years old from his\nactions, but when I asked him, to\nmy great surprise, he said he was\n18. I'm 22, but I look younger, aftd\nhe does know my age. He said it\ndidn't make any difference to him,\nthat he would like to become engaged to me later. s^rag\nI care a great deal for him, but I\ndon't think I'd be doing him justice\nbecause I'm so much older \u2014 four\nyears. Do you think it would make\na difference later on; if I marry him?\nHe insists he will always.love me.\n\u2014W.\nIt seems to be the way of boys\nto have their first love affairs with\ngirls who are older, and engagements not taken very seriously by\neither party, sometimes result. But\nit would be foolish, don't you think,\nto entertain thoughts of marriage in\nconnection with this friendship.\nHe'll probably be called into the\nservice before long, if he's in good\nhealth, and it would be inadvisable\nto consider definite plans until\nlater. <\"l|\nJam for Overseas\nMade at Nakusp\nNAKUSP, B.C.\u2014The Red Crosl\nJam kitchen was opened this week\nA shipment of apricots from Renati\nwas made into jam to be shipped\noverseas.

Unneces-\nry delays will also occur, especially\nthe husband is overseas.\nThe matter can be better handled\nrectly by themselves and, it difficul-\n>s should develop, they can get advice\nto further procedure from Capt. E.\nKoch of Nelson, Chief Recruiting Of-\n:er for East and West Kootenay,\nlich covers the district from the Al-\nrta border to Grand Forks.\nRoutine procedure is for Ottawa to\nfcontinue dependents' allowances for\nildren when a boy reaches 16 or a girl\naches 17, but in somer cases it is dis-\nhttoued at an earlier age at the con-\nision of a school term.\nBut, if children continue at school,\ns allowance is continued until the age\n19 for both boys and girls.\nBefore the allowance can be resum-\n, It is necessary that proof be submit-\ni to the Dependents' Allowance\n>ard at Ottawa. When this has been\nne, back allowances for the two\nUday months of July and August will\npaid in the cases of children who\nve been cut off because they were\nout 16 or 17 years of age at the end of\ni school term in June, and regular\nowances will continue afterward.\nIn cases in which the allowance has\nen discontinued, the correct course\nr the wife of a serviceman to follow\/\nto write to the Dependents' Allow-\nce Board, after the new school term\ns begun, giving the official record\nmber, and file number and date qf\nlast letter from the Board\u2014if there\n3 been prior correspondence\u2014and\nplosing a certificate from a school\njicipal stating that the child is at-\niding school.

This applies not only to In-\nne taxes but to customs duties, ex-\nb, postal revenue and all the rest of\nwhen there is a business recession,\nh concerns are compelled to reach and the resultant reduced activ*\nhits every province. The provinces,\nich have profited comparatively lit-\nfrom them in periods of business\npity, have to meet heavily i in-\nased costs of social services when\naness recedes. |\nHence the Sirois Commission \u2022rec-\nmendation. that the Dominion be-\nle financially responsible for the\nts of a larger part of social services\n[ social security measures, and in reft be given the income tax field to\nof, thus avoiding the evils of double\n', treble income taxation,\np some cases, as has occurred with\nemployment Insurance, the Domln-\nwpuld wholly administer social se\u00ab\n|ity measures. In other cases, of\nch the proposed Health Insurance\nis an example, it would make\nhts to the provinces which would\nHnue to administer most of the\nlth services, and would also raise\nt of the required revenue,\nthe intention of the Sirois recom*\nkdations was to relieve the proves of burdens in social security and\nal service necessities which they\nId not finance without increasing\n\"direct taxes\"\u2014which constitutionally\nare the only type of taxes which provinces can levy \u2014 to a degree which\nwould be politically impossible, and\nthrough the Dominion treasury, which\nhas the advantage of being able to levy\nboth direct and indirect taxes, to\nspread the burden, and the advantages,\nequitably among all the people of Canada.\nIt is vitally important to protect\nprovincial rights, but where services\ncannot' effectively be rendered by the\nprovinces, where they can only effectively be administered by the federal\nauthority, then it is pnly common sense\nto bring about a change. Family Allowances must obviously be federal, so\nmust Unemployment Insurance. It is\npractical for Public Health to remain\nwithin provincial powers, and so, very\nobviously, must education, though in\nboth cases federal finances can enter\nthe picture. Workmen's Compensation\nis under the provinces and nothing\nwould be gained by making a change.\nThe Release of Houde\nThe timing of the release from internment of CamJllien Houde, former\nMayor of Montreal, has more elements\nof political expediency than of courage.\nDuring the session of Parliament\nthe Government was asked on numer4\nohs occasions whether it proposed to\nrelease him. Answers were' always\nevasive.\nQuestions cannot now be asked until the next session of Parliament,\nwhich means in all probability after a\nDominion election has taken place.\nMr. Houde was interned four years\nago because of subversive speeches\nagainst Canadian participation m the\nwar. The question of punishment does\nnot enter into the matter; he was in-\nterned because the Government believed that as Ifcng as he was free he\nwas a menace to our national security.\nIt is therefore to be assumed that he\nhas not been now released because he\nhas been sufficiently punished, but because the authorities have received assurance that he will not repeat his subversive conduct.\nUpon no other ground would his release be justified, and the Government\nat Ottawa would have gained more\npublic respect if it had boldly told the\nfacts to Parliament.\nTheir Majesties\nBy G.

B. Rich, son of Mr.\nand Mrs. F. F. Rich, 1210 Crosaley\nAvenue, Nelson, has written to his\nmother of the impression he has\nreceived of France since \u00a9-Day.\nPart of his letter follows:\nI shall go back to D-Day. We\nlanded (I've seen it in the papers\nso it should be okay) in the little!\ntown of Berniers-sur-Mer. As we\nwent inland and swung up the nar-'\nrow gray streets I saw my first\nFrench civvies,' They were worn\nby a woman who looked bedraggled,\nher dress a black .shapeless sack,\nbelted in at the waist; and a man\nwho wore faded and patched denims; both looked worn and old yet\nthey couldn't have been over 39.\nHow they had liyed through the\nassault is beyond my understanding. t$M\nGIVE V SIGN\nAs we drove inland we saw more.\nThe men were wearing the polished brass helmets of the French police and seemed to be working\nlargely at social security and organisation work. All seemed cheerful but worn- The almost complete\nabsence of young people was very\nnoticeable. 1 wonder if the folks at\nhome could stand in the doorways\nof ruined homes and give the V\nsign to the men who caused the\ndestruction.\nOur first evening was spent very\nuneasily in a battery* position in a\nwheat field. The soil was solid shale.\nWe labored very hard but our shelter trenches were poor shallow\nthings. Horses were tethered in the\nfield in front of us; two were dead\nfrom artillery fire.\nWe could see gray forms come\nover a ridge in the field is front\nso another sergeant and I went out\non patrol but they were Frenchmen\nin the usual laundry-faded denims-\nWhen we met I managed to tell\nthem that two of their horses were\ndead. They were very cordial, exceedingly pleased to get a decent\ncigarette.\nThe next evening we were in a\nfarm yard and luckily it was easy\ndigging. The farmer was a slim debonair chap in boots and breaks\nwho never seemed to move away\nfrom his wife's side. Apparently\nthe Mayor of the farm-village had\nbeen a Nazi sympathizer and had\nattempted to secrete Germans in a\nposition which could have caused us\nno slight harm. The people of the\nvillage had settled the matter by\nshooting the mayor and putting our\ndebonair friend in bis boots, I shall\nnever forget that night. Panzers\nkept battering at the infantry positions and it is. claimed we kept\nthem back by weight of snell-fire.\nMy gun never cooled all night.\nTERRIFYING NIGHT\nThe following day we moved into\na field and dug in again, we seemed to be always digging),,That night\nis another I shall never forget.\n\"Tank Alert\" came down just at\ndusk, Panzers had cu{ in around\nour flank. We scattered to our various 'tank positions. We had been\nconcentrated for our own protection\nso there were quite a few guns and\nthere we sat motors pounding, eyes\npeering into the dusk.\nA hay stack was burning on a hill\nin front, the glow just reached and\nhaunted the gun position; several\nmachine guns were exploding with\ntracer directly ahead. It was noisy,\nweird and tewttplng- We stood\nWaiting, hearts pounding, eyes staring until the' shadows danced in\nweird shapes. The radio chose' that\nmoment to jam so we couldn't contact each other; one false move and\neveryone would have been firing\nat almost anything. It was near a\nlarge hay stock. I got behind it\nand- posted watches, shut off the\nmotor and lay doggo until a, runner\ncame to take me back to position.\nEv$b old \"Mac\", our nonchalant\nveteran whom nothing phased, said\nthat his hair .still stands on end\nwhen he thinks of that hour.\nEnough .of that theme. Though\nwe have been in actipn about seven\nweeks we've been practically out\neft.circulation since February.\nI'm not attempting to be depressing but merely to paint a true\noicture and also to explain to some\nextent why I haven't got around\nmuch lately.\nCOFFEE THE THING\nI'll be looking fdr the parcel,\nolives will be a treat. Canned goods\nother than bully are at a premium,\nso are beverages. Coffee goes over\nbest. There is a lot to be said for\na cup of tea, but when you're just\nabout out on your feet a cup of hot\nblack coffee is the thing.\nVm a mess, the seat is out of my\npants from carrying emergency ration packs in the hip pocket; the\nrecoil system is giving trouble and\nTm plastered with oil from refilling\nit; my beret is black from the soot\nOf a fire in a covered trench. The\nbest things about me are my Heinle\njack boots. They originally belonged to a Luftwaffe officer but\nhe evacuated in a hurry, leaving\nuniform and boots (spares I imagine)\nin his car.\nIncidentally nothing is too good\nfor the Elite Nazi officer; his uniforms are of lovely material, silk\nlined. Vou find perfume everywhere in his kit. The Whole mob\nof them are good at carrying a\nmess of everything. In one half-\ntruck we found two ladies'- fur\ncoats, a good assortment of female\nlingerie, cosmetics, male apparel of\nall kinds, plus wines and cigars.\nSeems ridiculous to us who-carry\nonly bare essentials. A usual thing\nto find is the pictures taken when\nthey belonged to Hitler's youth\ngroups. Tow-headed surly looking\nlads in Sam Brownes, giving the\nNazi salute.\nAll that youthful enthusiasm Is\ntoo often ending in a shellhole, covered by the absolute minimum of\nearth. Actually it may sound crude,\nbut I believe annihilation the best\nmethod of removing the deeply-\nstamped Nazi characteristics; a half-\nmeasure leaves a \"martyred\" nation, a dangerous thing. Poor, misguided people.\nYou mentioned the Frenchmen in\nthe Cathedral. There are four people, about 300 yards from here.\nThey've been living in a deep culvert ever since D-Day.

Light Rates\nReduced\nHart Announces\nVICTORIA, Aug. 2d (CP)\u2014A reduction in electric light rates involving a saving of more than $1-\n000,000 to consumers on Southern\nVancouver Island, the Lower Mainland, Port Alberni, and Kamloops,\nwill go into effect as a result of an\nOrder-in-Council passed by the\nProvincial Government on the recommendation of the Public Utilities Commission, it was announced\nSaturday by Premier John Hart.\n''\u2022'Since the rates were reduced last\nFall, the Public Utilities Commission has been continuing its investigation of the operations of the\nBritish Columbia Electric Railway\nCompany Limited and its subsidiaries. As a result further reduc-\ntions will be given to consumers this'\nyear on a non-billing basis.\nThe Public Utilities Commission\nare arranging a new schedule of\nrates to be promulgated on January 1, 1945, for Southern Vancouver Island, Port Alberni and Kamloops. The Commission also has\ngiven -assurances that while it is\nnot in a position to recommend a\nnew schedule of rates lor the Lower\nMainland, temporary reductions undoubtedly will be given in the form\nof a non-billing period for that area.\n\"In addition to the new schedule\nof rates for Southern Vancouver\nIsland, Port Alberni and Kamloops,\nthe Commission intimated,\" the\nPremier declared, \"that should circumstances justify, further, relief\nwill be given consumers through\nthe medium of a non-billing\nperiod.\"\nIt was explained by the Premier,\nafter consultation with the Public\nUtilities Commission, that no assurances could be given of a defiifi-\nite reduction in the monthly rates\non the Lower Mainland due to the\nfact that it is impossible to determine, at the present time, how permanent the increase in electrical\nconsumption will be.\nAt the present time, the non-billing period, particularly insofar as\nthe Lower Mainland is concerned,\nis made possible by the very heavy\nconsumption of electricity due to\nthe expansion of wartime industries.\nIf the recession from this point is\nnot too great at the end of hostilities, the Public Utilities Commission expects to be able to recommend a definite lower schedule of\nrates.\n\"However, until such time as the\nsituation is i clarified, relief to the\nconsumers, I particularly on the\nLower Mainland, will be given by\nthe ordering of non-billing periods\nas the constant survey of the situation determines such action to be\njustified,\" Premier Hart asserted.\nVANCOUVER, Aug. 20 (CP)\u2014\nVancouver electric users will save\napproximately $300,000 if the average electricity bill of $4 is the basis for computing the saving for\nsome 70,000 househoulders.'\nTaxpayers will save in addition\n$18,500 on street lighting and an estimated $2500 in school lighting.\nPRISONERS FROM\nATHABASKAN\nNOW NUMBER 81\nOTTAWA, Aug. 20 (CP) \u2014 The\nnumber of crewmen made prisoners\nof war when the Canadian destroyer\nAthabaskan was sunk in the English Channel last April Is given officially now as 81 with the addition\nof the name of Ls.

That frontal attach on well-empiaced, fixed enemy foritificatibns proved many\nthings: That hidden, heavy guns\nmust be silenced by vertical assault; that given air cover, warships\ncan approach close to any enemy\nbeach; that beach wire and underwater obstructions can be breached.\nit was victory\u2014at neavy price.\nOf the 5000 men of the 2nd Canadian Division who.participated in\nthe fierce, nine-hour assault on the\ncliff-girt resort town nestling on the\nEnglish Channel Aug. 19, 1942 two-\nthirds were casualties\u20143350 dead,\nwounded, taken prisoner or missing.

The Division's Commander, Maj.-Gen J.

STREBIG\nAssociated Press War Analyst\nThe appearance of elements of the\nGerman Air Force in support of the\nbeaten 7th Army as it flees toward\nthe Seine River makes it clear that\nthe Germans are holding back some\nof their air force for a possible last-\nditch fight.\nThe indications of latent air\nstrength were not impressive in\nview of the size of the daily air operations of the Allies. Several hundred German planes rose to interrupt the routine slashing of German ground forces by Allied airmen South of the Seine. The outnumbered enemy fliers were beaten off and did not return.\nApparently the German Jligh\nCommand, while straining to help\nthe 7th Army, could not afford to\nrisk much of its air reserve. Probably the most significant fact was\nthe evidence that there still is a\nLuftwaffe, as Allied military leaders have emphasized, despite the\nfailure of the German High Command to send it into action on occasions when air power could have\nbeen tremendously harmful to the\nTJTrifyed Nations' effort.\nBy\" this time, however, available\nAllied air strength has grown to\nsuch spectacular proportions that\nanything the Germans may have\nin reserve is certain to be insufficient.\nThe fanatical interest- in the fate\nof the 7th Army supports the privately expressed view of military\nmen in the United States that the\ncurrent battle in the North of\nFrance will be the battle of decision\nin the European war. In addition to\nrisking some of their obviously insufficient aircraft, the Germans\ndrew upon the 15th Army protecting the robot bomb launching areas\non the Channel coast in an effort\nto save the 7th Army.\nDON'T SAY BREAD\nSay Hoods\nSUPREME MILK BREAD\nWedding Held\non Anniversary\nAt Holy Trinity Church, Grand\nForks, Joan, only daughter of Mr.\nand Mrs. W.
