Coming later to Canada, she\nresided in Vancouver for ubout eleven years, coming to Crunbrook about\nfive years ago. One sister, the mother of Mr. Marshall, survives her,\nresiding in Vancouver. During the\nearlier years of her life deceased had\nfollowed the profession of a nurse.\nThe funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon from the family residence, Rev. M. S.

Just think what this\n'nfcana to French Government Bonds;\njwith the Franc worth 10 cents, each Bond\nof 1,000 francs will have a value of\n$100.00\u00E2\u0080\u0094a rir,e of over 212%, or a profit\nof $68.00 for every $32.00 invested today.\nWith thc franc celling at 15 cents, each\nBond of 1,000 Francs will have a value of\n$150.03, a rise of more than 370%, or a\nnet profit of $118.00 for each Bond of\n1,000 francs, or for every $32.00 invested\ntoday.\nWe made a lengthy and thorough Investigation to determine the best way to\nbuy Trench Francs for maximum profits.\nWe are of the opinion that these French\nGovernment 6% Bonds afford the best\nmedium, for they represent to French\ninvestors precisely what British Government and our Canadian Government\nVictory Bonds represent to us, being legal\ninvestments for every Institution, Trust\nFund cud Savings Bank in France, and\nconstituting a strictly high-grade Government investment. They may be sold\nagain instantly for spot cash, as they are\nlisted on the Paris Stock Exchange and\ntraded in throughout the financial centres\nof the world. The interest coupons (payable June and December 16th) have always been paid promptly on the dot, and\ncan be cashed in Montreal, New York,\nLondon, and other financial centres\nthrough our House, banks or other institutions.\nFrench Government Bonds will, we\nbelieve, unquestionably come back to\nnormal (S193.C3 per ljCOO-frana Bond.)\nThe United State.; v ?re financially bankrupt after the Civil War. Their securities\ncould be bought for a song, yet in a few\nyears the Americans were ca their finan\ncial feet again, and today arc considered\nthe richest nation in the world.\nEven England was oure faced with\nwhat seemed to be a financial disaster.\nWith Napoleon virtually pounding at her\ngates, British Bonds went for next to\nnothing, but the victory at Waterloo sent\nthem sky-rocketing. The Rothschild\nfamily accumulated the major portion of\nits wealth by investing in British bonds\nand selling them when Wellington's victory became known.\nThe experience of France, too, bank-\ntupt at the hands of Bismarck, is within\nthe memory of living man. Her Bonds\nsold down to 7% of their value after the\nFranco-Prussian War. They appeared\nhopeless, yet in two years they had recovered 95%, making fortunes for thef. ir-\nsightcd investors who had the courage to\ninvest in them. When millions of men and\npopulations of nations lend their collective efforts to the task\u00E2\u0080\u0094nothing is impossible. The French franc will undoubtedly come back to normal.\nA study of history convinces one forcibly that the most difficult thing in thc\nworld to destroy is national existence.\nHistory is repeating itself. The opportunity of a lifetime, to earn remarkable\nprofits, exists today for investors, through\nthe purchase of these high-grade French\nGovernment Bonds. They rank as the\npre-eminent class of French Government\nsecurities, and are virtually a first mortgage r:i the entire assets and resources of\nthe vast and wealthy Republic of France.\nThe Bonds are valid for 30 years after\nmaturity, and the interest coupons for 5\nyears after their respective maturity\ndates, thus enabling the investor to cash\nthem at any time the exchange rates are\nfavorable.\nFrance is a first-class commercial, naval\nand military power of tlie world. French\nindustries are thriving and working overtime. France is exporting goods to every\ncountry of the globe; her shipping is\ncrowding the world's pons, and thc nation shows every e\ idence of industrial\nand economic progress. Reparation payments from Germany are furtlier enhancing the French treasury. These condi I ions\nwill be quickly reflected in a rapid rise in\nthe French Franc, which in turn increases\nthe value of French Government Bonds.\nThat is why we urge you to buy French\nGovernment Bonds t/UW, while they\narc on the bargain counter.\nTable Showing Present Price and Possibilities\nOf Amount Price\nMMFtuci, French Gnvcntnent t% Bonds.\u00C2\u00BB\u00C2\u00BB*\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00C2\u00AB\u00C2\u00AB\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00C2\u00AB --*..

Davidson and Mrs. Crowe were the judges,\nand decided whom the prizes should\nbe awarded to. The girls of the\nC.P.R. Flats proved that they were\nvery good at needlework. The prizes\nwere awarded to the following girls:\nfirst. Agnes Mclnnis; second, Mabel\nAnderson, and third, Helen Mclnnis.\nAll these girls belong to the C.P.R.\nFlats. The fishpond and orange tree\nwere the centres of attraction while\nthey lasted, also the candy booth,\nwhich surely disappeared in a very\nfew minutes, and a good number of\nlittle tots were bitterly disappointed\nwhen they arrived and found the\nfishpond and orange tree empty. The\nladies served tea at ten cents, which\ncounted up to a neat sum, with which\nthe ladies and girls are now ready\nto go on with the next year's work.\nIn the evening a dance was put on\nby the girls, and a fair crowd was\npresent. At midnight a lunch was\nserved by the ladies, after which a\ndrawing took place for a pair of\nducks and a pure bred rooster.

Leonard brought iu un eight\npoint buck last Sunday, the record\nhead for Lumberton this season.\nThis buck had a narrow escape a short\ntime before Leonard gave him the\ncoup de grace. Two Cranbrook boys\nand three from Lumberton were\nhunting in the same territory, the top\nof the range on Ih' east Bide of Lumherton. One of the boys from Cranbrook was climbing over the brow\nthe same knoll when a couple of bullets whizzed over his head, one after\nthe other. Thinking he was mistaken\nfor a deer, he crouched down on his i\nknees and started to collect a few\nchoice expressions to hurl at the un-!\nseen hunter. Before he had lime toj\n-.xpress himself fittingly, the afore- .\nmentioned eight-pointer came over ^\nthe top of the knoll about sixty per, ^*\ndirectly towards him.

In spite of the facl\nthat tbe frost lends lo obliterate some of the really\nfine window displays of Christmas goods wliich\nCranbrook merchants have had on display, the colder\nweather lias undoubtedly bad the effect of turning\npeople's minds to the fact that Christmas is ill truth\nonly a little more than a week off. ll would nol\nlie Christinas, in faei, without some snap in the air,\nand now that Cranbrook's yulelide is likely to match\nup with the white Christinases that are depicted in\ntlie pretty pictures seen ou every side, everyone will\nprobably feel better, and the Christmas *,pirit will\npervade everything.\nWinter sports will get the impetus they have\nbeen wanting, and though it will probably be afler\nChristmas before they can lie given the serious attention they call for, the interval will give ample\ntime for practice, and for the arrangements that\nhave to bc made to get everything going smoothly,\nIn addition to a busy hockey season that is looked\nfor, with the men's, ladies' and hoys' teams, the\nCrows' N'esl bonspiei promises something big for lhe\ncurlers, as well as the extra facilities there are now\nfur inter-town games with Kimberley rinks.\nBelow zero weather is a good start for the win\nter, and if the weatherman can be prevailed upon to\nmoderate his severe mood a few degrees, just enough\nto allow people lo shop in comfort, everybody will\nbe happy.\n* * * * *\nSHOULD GET CONSIDERATION\nN tlte big program of road construction work\nwhich is said to be under consideration by the\nprovincial government, the highways of this district\ndeserve a bigger measure of consideration than they\nhave bad in tbe past. It is understood to be the intention to flout a sizeable bond issue, which is after\nall. the most business-like way. provided tlie proceeds are applied in more permanent construction\nmethods than have hitherto been iu vogue in this\nsection. The use the roads get should he a good\nmethod of determining what treatment to give them,\nand when it is considered that Cranbrook and Kimherley together are responsible for a larger motor\nregistration than any other point in the Kootenays.\nin addition to wliich there i.s an extremely heavy\nflow oi tourist traffic in both directions, it would\nnol seem to he expecting too much if thc roads hereabouts were recognized to this extent.\nIf the rond to Kimberley were given its due,\nthere is no doubt il would be paved. There-\nare stretches eif road in the coast districts which elo\nnot get the use this twenty miles or so of highway\ndoes, and they are given proper paving. Moreover.\nthc Kimlierley district contributes in an exceedingly\nlarge way tei general provincial revenues, if other\nconsiderations are allowed to enter into the question.\nYet every spring there comes a time when the reiad\nis impassable, and business in the two places suffers\naccordingly.\nNei doubt if the proper representations are-\nmade from the boards of trade and other bodies interested to ihis end, they will not fall ou deaf ears,\nand it becomes a matter of general concern, when it\nis considered tliat after all it is everyone's business\ntei see that the taxpayers' money is spent sei a*, tc\nget the best value for every dollar spent.\nthe province are an expensive matter, but they are\ngoing to become more expensive still, and if a policy\nof up-to-date construction is embarked on, and\ncarried out thoroughly, it will result in economy\nin the King run.\nus Wilson left on Wednesday for\nManville, Alta.. where they will spend\nthe Xnius holidays with their parents.\nA good deul of trouble was experienced by thos.- driving cars last\nFriilay night, when ii turned from\nrain to zero-weather, mnking the\nroads like glass, several curs being\nreported in the ditch, hut no one\nwas hurt.-\nMrs. J.

Greep, which took place\nnfter a week's struggle, on Wednesday morning at five a.m. Death was\ndue to complications following the\nbirth of her infant son on Nov. 18th\nAlthough hope of regaining health\nwas reported as being so slight, however, the whole town of Wardner was\nunited in the hope that since such a\nfight for life was made, even\nyet death might be averted, and we\nunderstand that only at a late hour\non Tuesday evening was it evident\nhat no further hope could be extended. Mr. Greep and ber father,\nMi*. Lybut, of Glenwood, Alta., were\npresent nt her bedside when death\nk place, and so affected was Mr.\nCreep by his loss, that it was neces-\nary to keep him In the hospital for\nome hour.; following. Mr. and Mrs.\nJrc p arrived in Wardner about five\nears previously, to make their home,\ncoming here after bad weather und\nther circumstances bad combined in\nmaking tbe crops of their ranch home\nn the prairie a failure. Since his\noming to Wardner, Mr. Greep has\neen employed by the C.N.P. Lumber\nCo. as night watchman, while Mrs.\nCreep had made many friends among\nthe townspeople. Besides Mr. Greep,\ntlie decased left three sons, the infant of.a month; Earl, aged eighteen\nmonths, and Jimmy, aged four.

Our present elementary\nschool fulfils this aim fairly well, by\nteachlng the \"tool subjects'' which\nevery child will need in after-life\nWhen the child leaves the elementary Bchool the parents naturally ex\npect that the high school will giv(\nhim a special preparation for going\nout into the world. But the currieu\nlum of the academic high school it\nsuited only to those who are goin^\ninto thc teaching profession and thotti\nwho wish to matriculate into tht* tint*\nverity.\nln recent years an attempt hu;\nheen made to broaden secondary edu\ncation so thnt it may suit tlu* need:\nof modern industrial life. Two tech*\nnichal schools have been launched\nin B.C., where a certain number of\nstudents are given a wider training\nI'he commercial high schools fit stu\ndents for office work.\nBalancing the Curriculum\nThe majority of children, however,\nattend the academic high school\nThe Survey Commissioneis found in\n1025 that in the high schools in B.C.\nonly 40% of the pupils wished to\nenter the teaching profession or the\nuniversity; and yet the whole currieu\nlum was suited to this 40%, The\nother 60% were obliged to study a\ncurriculum which would not fit them\nfor thc various departments of life\nwhich they wished to enter.\nWhat is more necessary to any\nboys or girls to fit them for life than\na thorough knowledge of English?\nYet in the high schools of B.C. about\n50% of the time allotted to the whole\ncurriculum is given to foreign languages and higher mathematics; and\nonly 15% to English, the mother\ntongue. This is only one example of\na curriculum which may suit a small\nnumber of pupils, but which certainly\nis not designed to fit thc majority of\nchildren for the ordinary life which\nthey will have to live.\nBefore the remedy is suggested,\nlook at another principle of modern\neducational theory: that education\nshould suit the development of the\nchild, not that the child is fitted into\na rigid system of education.\nPupils' Physical Condition\nBriefly speaking, a child's development Is steady and regular from the\nage of G to 12; then a definite change\nii\n'ki\nFOR GIFT BUYING s\nSuggestions\nw\nFancy Christinas boxed jK\nHandkerchiefs \u00E2\u0080\u0094each box tw\ncontains i handkerchiefs, ki\nPriced very special for 29\npeedy selling \u00E2\u0080\u0094 -JS\n50c, 75c. 90c, $1.00 Box\nLadies' Boudoir Slippers. *S%\nat $1.50 pair S\nSilk Stockings, in 9L\n$1.00 pair m\n39\nLadie:\nfancy box\nLadies' Silk and Wool \u00C2\u00ABj\nStockings, new shades, tw\nat 95c pair \"ti\nLadies ' Wool Gloves \u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0080\u0094 ki\n_^ gauntlet style $1.00 pr. 2j\nTC Ladies' fancy llandker- 2j\nchiefs, in colors, white. \u00C2\u00A32\ni\n29\nft Child's Handkerchiefs \u00E2\u0080\u0094 S\nboxed ... 25c, 35c, 50c box 4f\\nBovs' Braces, boxed \u00E2\u0080\u0094 &L\nPer box 35c, 50c M\nBoys' Belts, boxed 75c m\nBoys' and Girls' Felt Slip- fW\npers $1.25 up *\nChild's Felt Slippers \u00E2\u0080\u0094 si\nPer pair $1.00 0\nLadies' fancy Garters \u00E2\u0080\u0094 -sw\nboxed ... 40c, SOc, 75c pair 2j\nChristmas Ties for Men 2j\nSmart new cut silk in all 2jp\nthe new colors, each tie in *ja\nprettv Christmas Box \u00E2\u0080\u0094 S\nPrice 75c, $1.00. $U5 g\njay Tie and Handkerchief M\n5 Sf\" \u00C2\u00AB-s\u00C2\u00AB ft\nSf Garter and Handkerchief fw\ng sets $1.25 'ki\n9Z Garter and Arm-band sets ki\nft at 75c 'ki\nft Armbands in fancy box\u00E2\u0080\u0094 2j\nSat 50c 29.\nGents.' pure silk Handker- 2j\nft chief in fancy box \u00E2\u0080\u0094 \"JJ\nft at 50c, 7Sc box g\nmt Lined Mocha Gloves for S\njar Men; brown or grey \u00E2\u0080\u0094 iff\nS\" *\u00C2\u00BB!>*\u00C2\u00BB\ng Ail-Wool Socks\u00E2\u0080\u0094 tf.\nfj at 50c and \u00C2\u00AB5c pair 4?\ng Silk and Wool Socks, in W\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0K a variety of colors, stripes kw\nfl or checks 65c, 75c pair 29\nfl Men's warm Slippers \u00E2\u0080\u0094 in 29\nfl brown kid $1.50 pair 2j\n*\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 Men's Pyjamas, all sizes, 29\nat $2.75 S\ni^ colored embroidery \u00E2\u0080\u0094\njT Priced 6 for $1.00\nI\nI\nI\nI\ni\noccurs. Adolescence begins, This\nperiod continues lo about the age of\n18. It moy be divided into early\nadolescence from 12 to 15, and late\nadolescence from IC to 18.\nAdolescence means a great physical change and rapid bodily growth.\nThe mental change brings a widening outlook, a desire for more varied\ninterests and occupations, and a gen\neral rHllaMneu. The amotion*)\nchange is very evident. Afoods of\nexhilaration and depression follow\none another, and idealism may be developed easily. It is a period when\nthe varying abilities of children be-\ngn to appear, and if these are cultivated boys and girls may be guided\ninto suitable life channels of permanent worth.\nOur present elementary school sys*\ntern takes no cognizance of this\nchange in the life of the child. He\nia given a course of study which car-\nrii a him through eight grades, urnial\nly covering the years of 6 to 14, ignoring entirely the beginning of adolescence. Those teachers of Grades\n7 and 8 deserve great credit who\nmanage to keep the interest of pupils\nof 18 and 14 yeurs of age in a course\nof study which is largely a repetition\nof former grades.\nA Radical Chang*\nIgnoring early adolescence, ignoring also the opportunity of beginning\nnew subjects gradually in Grades\nand K, the present system encourages\npupils leaving the 8th Grade to enter high school, where they have to\nbegin four totally new subjects, and\nwhere much homework is demanded.\nThe whole atmosphere is different.\nMany pupils find this new environment and course of study quite un\nsuited to them, and drop out after\none \"unhappy and inglorious year.\"\nIn fact, thc \"casualties\" in high\nschool before the final year, are enormous, with their resulting loss bdth\nof pupils' time and ratepayers' money.\nThe reform suggested by the Survey Commissioners, which will both\nsuit the development of the child and\ngive a preparation for life is the\nmiddle school, or junior high school,\nas it is often called. This school covers Grades 7, 8 nnd to, receiving pupils at ahout the age of 12; and the\nwhole atmosphere and course of\nstudy is designed for early adolcs-\nence.\nA Broad Basis\nIn the suggested plan physical education is made purt of thc curriculum,\nand one period each dny is given to\nit. One period of each day is also\ndevoted to English throughout the\nthree years. In thc fiist yenr other\ncompulsory subjects are arithmetic,\nhistory, geography, nature study,\nhygiene, domestic science for girls\nnnd manual training for hoys. Audi\nturium work gives a means of self\nexpression, and periods of supervised\nplay are available. In all, theso periods amount to 30 per week, but 40\narc provided, so the other 10 can he\ngiven to optional subjects. Those\nwho are aiming at matriculation will\nbegin h language. Art and music\nwill be chosen by those wanting a\ngenera! cultural course. Typewriting\nand agrir-u ture are other options.\nThe curriculum of the second and\nthird years are similar, but contain\nnew subjects and more options.\nThese options and the various\nmeans of self-expression will reveal\nthe varying aptitudes of pupils, who\ncan thus be guided as to future studies or occupations. The middle school\nis designed for all normal children.\nThose who leave school at 15 will\nhave received some preparation for\nmaking a living, for use of leisure\nhours, for home making, and will\nhave had a training which should enable them to make some contribution\nto social progress.\nThose who wish to continue their\nstudies will have received not only a\n*,ound busi* for further education\nwithout the great strain of heavy!\nhomework, but they will now have:\nan idea which course they wish to\ntake, and for what profess'on or bus!-'\nness they with to prepare, They wT '\ntherefore choose wisely among tech**\nnical, commercial or senior Iii;\u00E2\u0096\u00A0'.\u00E2\u0080\u00A2.\nschools.\nThe middle school has heen found\nindispensable in many countries, including Great Britain and the United\nStates. It naturally involves expeme, I\nbut though it means an Increased cost,\nin dollars, it means far greater efficiency and economy in education.!\nIt saves years of the valuable lives I\nof young people. It saves them from\nbecoming fuilures, misfits and delinquents.
