King, minister of public works, to\nthe effect that the trans-provincial\nhighway will be built by the Hope-\nPrinceton route, has been received\nwith great satisfaction by local mo-\n. torists.\nThe question of tbe route which\nwould be finally adopted has been the\npertinent subject of a variety of discussion since the trans-provincial\nhighway was first brought into the\nlimelight of publicity.\nIt is the general opinion of motorists that Dr. King has chosen, not only economically, but very wisely, indeed. His decision, without any doubt,\nhas been influenced somewhat by the\ngreat pressure brought to bear on his\ndepartment by the automobile clubs,\nboards of trade and good roads associations throughout the province, who\nhave not been agitating these last\nthree years, or so wholly in vain.\nCredit to Princeton\nI The new road, when put through\u2014\nand Dr. King promises speedy action\n\u2014will mean a big thing for the interior of British Columbia, and especially for the Princeton district Mr.\nStephen Golder, secretary of the Vancouver Automobile Club, states that\nin this connection, motorists realize\nthat they owe a great deal to Princeton Board of Trade, a body of loyal\n^workers, who were indefatigable in\nI their endeavors towards influencing\nthe decision of the department in\ntheir favor. They will now reap the\njust reward for their labors.\nNo doubt some disappointment will\nbe fe't in the other up-country districts that put forward strong claims\nfor alternate routes, but automobilists\nare assured that by the adoption of\nthe Hope-Princeton route the greatest\ngood will go to the greatest number,\nwhich is, after all, the main principle\nto be followed.\nVhe Fraser canyon route suggested\nwas surveyed by government engineer? this summer; but the cost, as\nstated by Dr. King, was prohibitive.\nThe Harrison Lake route to Pember-\n*-:iK*n Meadows was absolutely impi'ac-\nfclfclble for the same reason. The\nCIeve!and route from Hope to Princeton is also expensive. It is stated that\nthe construction of the highway as\n. chosen will be in the neighborhood of\nhalf a million dollars.\nThe main desire of motorists now\nis to have the road constructed as\nsoon as it will be possible.\nIn the event of the completion of\n\u2022 the trans-provincial highway, a detour\ninto the United States to reach the\ncoast will be eliminated, no less than\nthe necessity of shipping a car via the\nKettle Valley railway from Hope or\nclown from Princeton.\nIt is pointed out that in the choosing of the route the proposal of a road\n. through from Squamish has met with\nscant consideration. Motorists consider, however, that the building of\nthis road is only a question of time.\nJUST ACROSS THE LINE\nItems    of    Interest    From\nOroville   Gazette.\nthe\n\",EEN   RIVALRY   IN   STAR'S\nSUBSCRIPTION   CONTEST\nDorothy     Meausette     and     Madelene\nVladetich   Close   Competitors\nfor First  Prize\nWith only nine days more to go the\nStar's subscription contest has developed into a neck and neck race, between Miss Dorothy Meausette, with\n370 points to her credit, and Madelene Vladetich, with.350 points. Both\ncontestants are working hard and\ntheir friends are boosting for them.\nThe contest closes at midnight on\nNovember 19th. Commencing Monday next the standing of the two leading contestants will be posted daily\nin the window of A. E. Howse Company's store.\nAny one subscribing direct to the\nStar office has the privilege of naming which competitor they wish to\nhave credited with their subscription.\nDouble points will be allowed for\nsubscriptions paid two years in advance.

The many interesting\nstories and articles in this issue include a splendid ducking story entitled \"Twenty-six grains of ballistite\nand one-eighth ounce of number six.\"\nA thrilling account of one of Captain\nJoseph Bernard's expuoratory trips in\nthe Arctic regions also appears in the\nNovember issue. For the trapper and'\n'over of the outdoor life there is the\nTraplihe department ably edited by\nM. U.. Bates, from material obtained\non his own trapline. The usual departments appear in this issue of Canada's National sportsmen's monthly.\nRod and Gun in Canada is published\nmonthly by W. J. Taylor, Limited,\nWoodstock, Ont.\nA busy beaver has been cutting\ndown the trees in the town park on\nthe north side of the Okanogan river,\nopposite the creamery almost within\nthe town limits.\nA force is at work getting out a car\nload of salts at the salts plant, which\nhas been idle for some time, for shipment east. It is to be hoped that this\nspurt will be followed by steady operations at the plant.\nFriday last a rumor was in circulation that an auto load of booze had\npassed through town the day before\nfrom British Columbia headed south.\nThat shipment was possibly the one\nthat the officers captured at Wenatchee Thursday last. The World\nstates that a Gray Dort car loaded\nwith several cases of Canadian whiskey was taken as the car was going\ninto Wenatchee. \"In the car were S.\nA. Milton, automobile \u25a0 dealer of Oliver, B.C., James Green, owner of the\ncar, and Thomas Johnson,\" according\nto the World. The justice of the peace\nat Wenatchee hits 'em right when\npassing sentence on such offenders,\nthe World states, that both Green and\nMilton were fined $500 and costs and\na jail sentence of 120 days. If every\njustice of the peace along the border\nwould only soak the bootlegger to the\n.'imit, especially giving them a jail\nsentence, there would speedily be noticed a decided slump in that industry. What do these birds care for a\nfine of $100 or $200? One successful\nexpedition in the liquor running business would pay such fines and leave\na comfortable balance to the good.\nSome months ago four head of cattle belonging to George Devon insisted\nupon quenching their thirst at the\n\u25a0satts; lake west of town owned by the\nStewart-Calvert company, an act upon the part of the dumb brutes that\ncould not have been prevented as the\nake covers considerable of an acreage, and has been lying out doors unguarded since the earth was formed,\nor it is presumed that the origin of the\nlake dates. back to that early period.,\nA.s a result of absorbing the salts water the poor cattle died a miserable\ndeath. For some reason\"llr. Devon\nheld the owners of the lake responsible for the Toss of his four-footed\nproperty and brought suit for damages\nin the amount of some $750. The\nStewart-Calvert company made every\neffort to compromise. A. J. Jackson\nhad a flock of cattle on his pasture\nnear the creamery and Mr. Devon was\ninvited to pick out four of the best\nanimals to take the p'ace of those\nlosff The company was still more\ngenerous, not desiring to gefKinto a\nprotracted suit, and offered Mr. Dev:\non six head to replace the loss of his\nfour. Mr. Devon was obdurate. He\nset an exceptional value on his stock\nand pushed his suit clear up to the\nsupreme court. That high judiciary\nboard of arbitration handed down a\ndecision last week denying Mr. Devon's appeal. Some times it pays to\ncompromise.

But meeting again last year\nin China they decided to go back to\nCanada and recover their property,\nwhich they realized now represented\na considerable sum of money, platinum having in the meanwhile gone up\nfrom 50 cents an ounce to $75.00.\nThe intervening years had wrought\nmany changes in the locality of their\nformer wanderings, but after some\ndifficulty the party found their camp\nand recovered \"the precious bottle, the\ncontents of which they have now sold\nfor over 7,000 dollars.\u2014Reuter.\nPARTS   WITH   $350\nPenticton     Garage     Man     Defrauded\nby   Stranger\nBETTER ORGANIZATION FOR GYM\nComplaints as to damage of the\nParish hall having from time to time\narisen, the committee in charge\nthereof decided at a recent meeting\nto discontinue the gymnasium classes\ntill further notice.\n. In an endeavor to prevent this drastic resolution being put into effect,\nthe o'der boys, having first consulted\nthe committee in charge, met in the\nparish hall on Wednesday evening,\nunder the presidency of Mr. Cornish,\nfor the purpose of organizing a club,\nwhich would have control of gymnasium work and could take up any complaints which might in future be\nmade.\nIt was decided to ask Mr. Barr Hall'\nand Mr. Cornish to be honorary presidents, and the following officers were\nalso . appointed: President, Wilfred\nGraham; vice-president, Louis Schulli;. committee\u2014Maurice Wright, Alfred Thomas, Pete Prest and Dave\nMuir.\nAt a committee meeting held last\nevening it was decided that the committee should take charge of all\nsports in which the senior boys are\nengaged. That the organization be\nnamed the Princeton Senior Boys'\nAthletie Association. Adne Almstrom\nwas elected secretary-treasurer, and\nthat the following rules govern the\nwork of the gymnasium:\n1. That no boy be allowed on the\nfloor of the gymnasium except in\nrubber soled shoes.\n2.

Parkinson, deputy minister of the\ndepartment of soldiers' civil re-establishment.\n(Penticton Herald.)\nHenceforth, it is believed business\nmen of Penticton will require from\nany stranger more than a raiteray bill\nof lading as a guarantee of identity\nand integrity, before they place their\nnames on the back of a cheque which\nthe stranger might desire to cash at\nthe bank.    \u25a0 'f^Sj\nAbout two weeks ago, it is. reported,\na stranger, representing himself'to be\nJ. R. Weaver, of Edmonton, caUed on\nMr. H. T. Ewing of the Central Garage\nand showed him a bill of lading of two\nautos and some effects. The document appeared to be in perfect order\nbeing, stamped, \"Received by C.P.R.\njn good condition.\" From^ this Mr.\nWeaver gave Mr.Ewing to understand\nthat the shipment was on his way\nhere and that as he would likely be\nout of town when it arrived, he wanted it unloaded and stored. Mr. Ewing\nundertook to attend to this matter.\nThe stranger then desired to cash a\ncheque for $350, made in his fayor by\nanother man. This cheque was drawn\non the Royal Bank of Canada, at New\nWestminster, but since Mr. Weaver\nwas unknown to the bank authorities\nhere, he asked Mr. Ewing to endorse\nit with him, for identification.\nBeing reasonably satisfied in his\nown mind that, the stranger was genuine, Mr. Ewing subscribed his signature, but after the stranger had left\ntown for parts unknown the cheque\nwas returned from New Westminster,\nthere being no funds on deposit at the\nbank there to meet it. Mr. Ewing\ntherefore was confronted with the\nnecessity of making good the cheque\nat the local bank. This was not the\nsum total of Mr. Ewing's troubles\neither, for enquiries made through\nrailway officials have so far failed to\nlocate any car of goods consigned to\nMr. .J. R. Weaver here.\nWhether or not Mr. Ewing is the\nvictim of a confidence trick remains\nto be seen, but at all events at the\npresent time he is mourning the loss\nof the $350.\nPOLITICAL    MEETINGS\nR.

MacKelvie, National Liberal and Conservative candidate for Yale riding, is\nin town at present, having just returned from a trip up to the mine at\nCoalmont. Bob is well known to all\nihe o'd-timers'of the Similkameen,\nhaving be^en for years manager of the\nBank of Commerce, first at Keremeos\nand later at Princeton. Oh his return\nfrom several years' service overseas\nhe took up fruit ranching in which\noccupation he is now well established\non soma choice property adjoining the\ntown fll&keremeos. Duties on a fruit\nand vegetable ranch are, very exacting but when the election bell rings\nBob simply has to go, and if Mr. MacKelvie dd\u00a3s not pile up a substantial\nmajority in the Similkameen valley\nit will not be the fault of the lieutenant which he has chosen to work for\nhim. ^_W\nMeetings are announced as follows:\nPrinceton, in the Oddfellows' hall on\nTuesday evening next, November 15;\nCoalmont, at the mine on Wednesday,\nNov. 16; Cawston and Keremeos on\nthe afternoon and evening of November 17th, respectively.\nThrough Mr. Carmichael's influence\narrangements have been made to\nhave a poll at the mine at Coalmont\nfor the convenience of the men.\nCARD OF THANKS\nMr. J.

The children of the devastated areas of France gave the\nnotion of an idea which law rapidly\niiskling of an idea which has rapidly\ngained recognition, when they gatherer the red poppUs which grow in\nprofusion in Flanders and Northern\nFrance, and decorated the graves of\nthe fallen heroes, near their homes.\nLast year th* proposal was ad-\n-iiiice?! in the United States. The\n\u25a0wearing of the poppy as an expression of deep reverence for the memory of the dead was met with sympathetic approval throughout the oomn-\ntry. So, on November 11th of last\nyear there were very few citizens of\nthe great republip who did not pay\n\u25a0.heir tribute to the dead in this way.\nvh\u00ab poppy will again be th\u00bb flower of\niamembrance this year.\nSentiment in Canada in this desire\nto honor the fallen, is even stronger.\nLet every true Canadian man, woman\nand child consider it a sacred obligation to wear the bright- red poppy on\nArmistice Day. It will hold and^pre-\nserve the link of affection between\nthe two sister, countries\u2014Canada>1&hd.\nFrance. It will keep alive the memory of those who brought back\nhonor to their country, glory to their\nflag, and peace to the world.\nGreat   Increase   in   the   Animals   Admitted  to  the   Record   of\nPerformance\nAt the annual meetings of the Ayrshire and Holstein-Friesian Breeders'\nAssociations in 1920 it was decided to\nadd to the Record of Performance a\n305-day record wth a four hundred\nday calving limit and to \\cut out the\ncalving requirements in the 365-day\nrecord. This arrangement came Into\neffect on April 1, 1920, and this classification therefore appears .in the\nthirteenth report of the Record of\nPerformance for Pure Bred Dairy\nCattle, covering the year from that\ndate to March 81, 1921, recently issued by the Live Stock branch at Ottawa. From this report it appears\nthat, in all, 329 Ayrshires were entered, of which 127 were in the mature\nclass, -<8 being in the 805-day division,\n35 in the 4-yearold class, one being\nin the 305-day division, 70 in the 3-\nyear-old class, three in the 305-day\ndivision, and 97 in the two-year-old\nclass. The 305-day division in Ayrshires is termed the Honor Roll. The\nnumber of Holsteins entered was\n385, of which 180 were in th\u00a9 mature\nclass, including three in the 305-da'y\ndivision, 57 in the 4-year-old class, 59\nin the 3-year-old class, one being in\nthe 305-day division, and 139 in the\n2-year-old class with two in the 305-\nday division. The Jerseys entered\nnumbered 180, namely, 28 mature, 21\nfour-year-olds, 30 three-year-olds, and\n57 two-year-olds. The Shorthorns entered totalled 102, namely, 40 mature,\n12 four-year-olds, 20 three-year-olds,\nand 30 two-year-olds. Of French-Canadian cattle, 8 mature, 3 three-year-\nolds and one two-year-old were recorded. Of Guernseys, four mature,\none four-year-old and six two-year-olds\nproved eligible. Every breed shows\nan increase in the total number of\nentries over the previous year; Ayrshires of 150, Holsteins of 160, Jerseys of 84, and Shorthorns of 59. Perhaps the best indication of the growth\nof the Record of Performance system\nfor pure-bred dairy cattle is to be\nfound In the fact that 336 breeders\nare represented In the thirteenth report, against 247 in the twelfth.\u2014Issued by the Director of Publicity, Department of Agriculture, Ottawa.\nPER80NAL   PROPERTY  TAX\nPrinceton board of trade has twice\nmet and discussed the proposed personal property tax. On each occasion\nthey felt that they did not have suffi-\n. cient information to warrant an expression of opinion. Kelowna board\nof trade, apparently without any more\nlight on this matter, passed the following resolution:\n\"Resolved, that in the opinion of\nthis board there is not sufficient information at its disposal to form a\nworthy opinion as to whether the proposed increase in the .rate of taxation\non personal property is the most\nequitable method of obtaining the extra money required for the \"assistance\nof the municipalities. This board,\nhowever, considers that the collective\nmachinery of such taxation, however\nraised, should be governmental and\nnot local, and that greater strictness\nbe used to prevent the escape of any\ntaxable person.\"\n-G. C. Rose, editor of the Kelowna\nCourier and member of the board of\ntrade, in commenting on their action\nsaid the agitation was premature in\nview of the fact that the government's\nproposals had not yet been laid\">io\nconcrete form before the legislature,\nand the board was therefore lacking\nin very necessary information as to\nthe nature of the proposed tax. He\ndeprecated a tendency to deal with\npublic matters without a full knowledge of the facts, and pointed out\nthat such in the past had placed the\nboard in invidious positions. He believed that the government was mak-\n- ing a sincere effort to relieve the\nCrushing burden carried by owners\nof land within the municipalities, and\nthat their proposals should not be\ncondemned until they had been made\npublic and given careful consideration. There would be plenty of time\nto take action before any new tax\nbecame law. He suggested that some\nof the opposition came from men In\na large way of business occupying\nrented.property and thereby escaping\nreal estate taxation, who claimed that\nthey paid taxes through their rents,\nbut he denied the truth of the claim,\npointing out that-the returns on rented property had been so meagre for\nyears past that buildings for renting\npurposes had practically ceased. At\nthe same time he agreed that a graduated income tax was the fairest form\nof taxation and thought the board\ncould safely declare in favor of abolition of the personal property tax and\nsubstitution of an income tax.\nBUSINESS LOCALS\nFOR SALE\u20143 acres fruit land near\ntown and station, with 2 roomed\nshack; very reasonable; ^erms.\nFull particulars, Box A, Star office.\n60-2p\nSynopsis of\nLand Act Amendments\nAUCTION  SALE OF  LOTS\nIN   COALMONT  TOWNSITE\nNotice Is Hereby Given that, on\nWednesday, the 23rd day of November, 1921, at 11 o'clock in the forenoon; there will be offered for sale\nby Public Auction at Coalmont, B.C.,\nthe lots held by the Crown, in Coalmont Townsite.\nP?,ans of said lots may be seen at\nthe Drug Store, Coalmont, and at\nthe Office of the Government Agent,\nPrinceton.

He will start his\nsecond cougar killing year this season as soon as the snow comes. He\nis owned by William Le Lievre, of\nKeremeos. Mr. Lievre is a stockman\nof the Similkameen valley. He told\nthis most interesting story to the\nDaily World man the other day at\nOrovilie:\n\"The cougars had been killing a\nlot of our stock. So I got this fellow three years ago. He is part\ncollie and the rest just dog of the\nmongrel type. I got Charley Shuttle-\nworth, of Okanagan Falls, to train\nhim for \"cats.\" Two years ago he\ngot several lynxes and wild cats. He\ngot into the habit of going out nights.\nWe would hear him barking in the\nwoods. But we didn't want to get\nout of bed. But one night we went\nout a*nd found that he had a cougar\ntreed. After that we went out every\ntime we heard him parking. And last\nwinter he treed fourteen.\n\"How-he doe*\/iate a cougar! He\npays no attentjcn to a coyote. We\nput him on the trail of a coyote once.\nHow he ran to tree that coyote! He\nran and ran till he was worn out. Of\ncourse, he never caught it. Since\nthen he has never had any use for a\ncoyote. But when he once scents a\ncougar every hair on his back raises,\nHe is gone. He makes the cougar go\nsome till the cougar .Jakes to a tree.\nAnd then \"Wag\" makes such a fuss\nthat the cat will go clear to the top\nof the tree. He has the bark of a\ncoF-ie dog, but loud. In, fact his bark\nis such that he eyen scares the domestic cats almost to death. They\ngive him a wide berth.\n\"During his training the dog's\ntrainer kept him close at hand while\nhunting till he chased up a cougar\u2014\nthen he told the dog to take him;\nand within three hundred yards the\ncougar would be treed. When he had\ncaught several cougars in this way,\n'Wag\" developed into a real cougar\nhunter.\n\"For a while he was treeing cougars without our knowing anything\nabout it. He apparently would get\ntired waiting and eventuallj^come\nhome. But when he found that he\nwas so good on the cougar trail, we\nwould follow him up, and get the\ncougar. Wag soon learned this and\nhe got so that he would wait and\nwait till we would come.\n\"Last fall we loaned him to a man\non Lake Chelan by the name of\nBurns. Burns and his partner took\nWag out on Friday and started him\non a cougar trail at eleven o'clock.\nBurns and his partner lost track of\nhim. But the next day a farmer\nsaw the dog and taking him to be\nthe miscreant which was killing his\nsheep took four shots at him. Wag\ncertainly had a narrow escape.[ But\nthe farmer discovered that Wag had\na cougar in the tree. The dog had\nstayed with that cougar from eleven\no'clock on Friday till three o'clock\nSaturday. He is certainly a game\ndog.\n\"Shuttleworth  has.  another  cougar\ndog  that  works  with  Wag.   And   If\nanyone has had trouble with cougars\nI would suggest that they send fori\nShuttleworth and the two dogs.\"       I\nThis season the Grand Forks district has attained considerable importance in the fruit industry of the province. The following from the Gazette\nof that town show the big returns\nwhich some ranohere have received:\nWith the shipment of the last car\nof apples on Monday, J. A. Coleman,\nof the Hill View orchard, closed the\npacking house at Carson after a most\nsuccessful packing season.\nIn a previous issue of the Gazette\nwe quoted - Mr. Coleman as stating\nthat he expected to ship from the orchards of A. C. Lawson, H. W. Collins and his own about seven thousand boxes of the value of $11,000,\nbut these figures have been far exceeded as the total number of boxes\nshipped amounted to well over eight\nthousand, with a total value running\nover $15,000.\nMr. Coleman states that the quality\nhas been the best he has ever shipped, the total output running over 75\nper cent, wrapped. This percentage\ncould have been increased had sma'l\nsized apples been wrapped, as no apple smaller than 200 to the box was\nwrapped.\n$9,000 Apples From  10 Acres\nThe biggest surprise, according to\nMr. Coleman, was the crop from the\nA. C. ! Lawson orchard, the returns\nfrom which amounted to but a shade\nunder $9,000 gross. This is probably\na record for any ten-acre orchard in\nthis district. _M_\nThe crop- from Mr. Coleman's orchard while not so large this year as\nin 1919, amounted to over $5,600 gross\nwhich is also good considering the\nnumber of boxes shipped. It is interesting to note that the percentage of\nwrapped fruit has gradually risen\nfrom 20 per cent, in 1916 up to 75 per\ncent, in 1921 on the Coleman orchard,\nand the A. C. Lawson ranch will at\nleast equal this'.\nThe balance of the $15,000 was\nmade up from the H. W. Collins orchard, which without water made a\nvery creditable showing, especially in\nJonathans. Out of a total of 149\nboxes packed, 104 were No. 1, 7 were\nNo. 2 and 38 were No. 3. The Yellow\nNewtowns from the same ranch also\nran about the same percentage.\nMr. Coleman says that with irrigation in the valley ifcnd with more\nstrict attention to cultural methods,\nSunshine Valley should in the near\nfuture hold the premier position in\nthe fruit growing districts of British\nColumbia, and that the apparently\nhigh prices for orchards of today will\nbe far exceeded;\nCOMPANY   ACQUIRES\nHOOKHAM\nMINES\nWill  Be  Delivering Coal   in  Commercial  Quantiites Within\nSix    Months\nThe White Lake Collieries, Limited,\nowning the large coal area at White.\nLake, fifteen miles south of Penticton, held an important directors'\nmeeting here on Monday night.\nThis company was organized by\nMr. G. R. Hookham ahd the property\nhas been prospected by him for some\nseasons, resulting in important discoveries. :|i|p\nThe company recently engaged\nGlenville A. Collins, consulting mining engineer, of Vancouver, to expert\nthe property, with the result that the\nWhite Lake Collieries, Ltd., is now\npreparing to go ahead with the project in a more active manner.\nThe company has engaged the services of the firm of Glenvi'le A. Collins Engineers, Ltd., to open up and\noperate the mine. Diamond drilling\nwill start soon, to be followed by\npreparations for active mining on a\ncommercial scale.\nMr. Collins was in town Tuesday\nand stated that in his opinion the\nproperty would become a valuable\nasset to the valley, and that the comr\npany would be able to offer good\ncoal at competitive prices within six\nmonths*. \u00a7!$&\nMr. Glenville A.

Men entered the\nservice of the bank and made it their\nlife work. Women do not. They keep\ntheir ears open for marriage bells.\"\nDefinition by  Example\nJoe\u2014'Ere, Curly!

One day recently the police\nat Fernie took twenty-three men off\none train, and lodged them in jail.\nAlmost all of them were on their\nbeam ends, financially, and mast of\nthem had drifted that way looking\nfor work.\ni\nm\n\/\nES\n* I ask from all the people of Canada an earnest review of the real issue before Canada to-day. I oak\nfrom men and -women a calm, thoughtful consideration of serious public questions; and, so far as I\nam concerned myself, I ask npt favors but fairness.'*\u2014ARTHUR MEIGHEN.\nTTTOMEN   OF CANATJA,  the coming  General  Election  will be  one  of   the nv\u00bbt\nYV momentous in Canadian history, and Arthur Meighen asks Y.OU to give the issue\nfair, unbiassed consideration. SjpS\nWomen an.d men alike are called upon to decide whether political, industrial and\n.economic stability is to be replaced by class rule, political and industrial chaos and\n\/\u2022possible economic bankruptcy. \\0\u00a7_l\nThe- facts are clear, and every Canadian woman will do her own thinking. She will\nnot be misled by others. She will not blindly follow family political precedent, neither\nwill she be carried away by the false theories or empty \"isms\" of theorists and extremists. Every woman will arrive at a personal decision by the application of\npractical common sense.\nThe great issue is the Tariff and here are briefly the facts.\nThe present Canadian Tariff, so far as it affects the necessaries of life, is a Stdfy\nmoderate one. It is simply a tariff maintained to keep Canadian factories in Canada,\nemploying a steadily increasing volume of Canadian labor and developing Canadian\nresources. wi0' W0\nMeighen stands firm for the continuance of a reasonable tariff. It is now even more\nimperative than in the past. All other important countries are retaining or increasing\ntheir tariffs in order that they may hold their home markets for their own people.\nUnder Crerar's Free Trade policy Canada would be swamped with foreign goods,\nprincipally from the United States, Canadian industry would be ruined, thousands\nof men and women would be out of work with all the hardships to themselves and\ntheir children that must result. The farmer's great home market would be seriously\naffected, taxes would be increased, and Canadian working men would have to go to\nthe United States for employment.\nWhile King's Tariff policy is wobbly it nevertheless tends toward the destruction of\nthe Tariff and would bring with it practically the same results.\nMEIGHEN'S POLICY EVERYBODY KNOWS. It is the only means whereby\nconfidence may be maintained and employment given to all classes of the people.\nThe foregoing is a plain statement of logical conclusions arrived at from the facts.\nThink the matter over carefully \"without favor but with fairness\".\nMake your own decision, stand by it unmoved and be sure to exercise your vote.\nCanada Needs Your Vote; and\u2014\nI 1 \u2014t2\u2014I\nThe National Liberal and Conservative Party\nPublicity Committee\n4\nGRANITE CREEK\n: : hotee : :\nUNDER  NEW   MANAGEMENT\nTAXI\nSERVICE   IN\nTION.\nCON NEC-\nGus Clerf    Mike Mirkovitch\nDOMINION GflFE\nOPEN DAY AND NIGHT.\nGOOD   EATS \u2014\nGOOD   SERVICE.\nCHARGES   MODERATE.\nFRANK HONDA, Prop.\nPhone  72\nGoaimontHotei\nAll the Comforts\nof Home\n-FIRST  CLASS  TABLE-\nROOMS  COMFORTABLE  AND\nWELL   HEATED\nMcKiernan &\nPROPRIETORS\nPRINCETON    STAR\nJOB DEPARTMENT\nWHEN YOU ARE IN NEED OF\nLetterheads\nBillheads\nEnvelopes\nStatements\nMeal Tickets\nMilk Tickets\nBall' Programs\nPosters\nDodgers, Dates\nCirculars\nInvitations\nBusiness Cards\nBills of Fare\nMemo Heads\nButter Wrappers\nVisiting Cards\nTRY US \u00ab WE GIVE SATISFACTION\nC.

B. Armstrong as\nQueen of the Snow. The Princeton\norchestra furnished the music for the\nevening to the entire satisfaction of\nall present.\nBusiness in Keremeos is experiencing an unusual depression this season. Two causes appear to contribute. There has been considerable\nbuilding activity, all of which has\nbeen financed by local capital and\nmost of which, such as the Community hall, the Anglican church and the\nOrange hall, has drawn heavily upon\nthe purse of the public generally.\nAdded to this the long delay in the\nreceipt of returns from the fruit\ncrop, owing to the introduction of the\n\"pooling\" system of marketing the\nfruit, has added to the shortage of\nfunds and business, usually brisk at\nthis time of the year, is dormant.\nEither a different system of marketing the fruit-^-one insuring Jhior'e\nprompt returns\u2014will have to be reverted to or the- producers and merchants   will   have   to   regulate   their\nbusiness  affairs  different.\n*    *    * gjflg*\nThe bazaar given in the Victory\nhall under the' auspices of the Women's Institute was very successful.\nThe hall was beautifu'ly decorated in\nyellow and black and evergreens with\nbunting and flags in profusion.

The home cooking\nwas in charge of Mrs. R. C. Clarke,\nassisted by Mrs. Glen Colwell and\nMiss Percil. Mrs. Roddick had charge\nof the parcel post, and Miss Brett of\nof the fish pond. The tea room was\nvery pretty with Mrs, D. McCallum\nin charge, assisted by Mrs. Oliver and\nMrs. Pearce, with a bevey of young\ngirls to serve. Mrs. O. H. Carle was\nconvenor for the candy booth, assisted by Mrs. G. Clarke and Miss Walker; and the bean toss under the management of Mrs. E. M. Daly, was very\nmuch enjoyed.

L. Gimby on Saturday afternoon under exceptionally sad circumstances in the absence of her husband. Mr. Gimby, who was in Cabri,\nSask., at the time was immediately\nnotified by wire and reached here on\nMonday night accompanied by his\nfather. The baby girl born on Saturday lived till Sunday night when it\npassed away and was laid to rest' with\nits mother.\nThe funeral took place from the\nCommunity hall on Tuesday afternoon, the Rev. Mr: Currie officiating,\n.issisted by Rev. L. A. Morrant.\nThe loss is one which is, to her\nhusband and family, irreparab'e, and\none which will be felt by the many\nfriends of the deceased for long days\nto come.\nMrs. Gimby was an active member\nof the Women's Institute for the past\nthree years, and since making Cawston her home had come to be loved by\n\u2022nany and commanded the respect of\n?11 with whom she came in contact.\nThe sincere sympathy of one and\nall goes out to Mr. Gimby and his\nfamily in their bereavement.\nMONEY   AVAILABLE\nFOR    IRRIGATION\nThe Board of Trustees of the Grand\nForks Irrigation District have been\nofficiary advised that the Government has arranged for a loan of $150,-\n000 to proceed with the installation\nof the irrigation scheme for that\n\u2022\/alley.\nThe original estimate for the entire\nirrigation project was around $350,-\n000, but these figures are now doubtless subject to downward revision.\nThe loan of $150,000 should be sufficient to put water on the greater\nportion of unit number one, which\ncontains some 2700 acres and includes Almond Gardens and other\ntracts south of the river.\nDepending on the way it is treated,\ndiphtheria is one of the least dangerous or one of the most dangerous diseases. It is one of the least dangerous when promptly treated with antitoxin; it is one of the most dangerous when the antitoxin treatment is\nnot given, or is delayed or insufficient. In the days before we had antitoxin one out of every three children\nwho had diphtheria died. Now, if\nantitoxin is used on the first or second day of the disease ninety-eight\nout of every hundred children recover.
