There were not muny people who professed to be surprised at the result of the vote, but not mnny had thought the majority would be as large, though one mnn has been heard to say that it was not as large as he thought it would be. Polling day passed quietly, though there were evidences of enthusiasm on both sides, but there were no untoward occurrences at the polls reported. Active work had been in progress by both the wets and drys, especially during the last days of the campaign. Analyzing the Vote Those favoring the opening of beer parlors feel that the vote very decidedly represents the sentiment as it is at present, while those opposing feel that they owe their defeat to the fact that their opponents lost no effort to get the maximum vote to the polls, including a number of voters from distant points in the district, while it is evident that even what is usually termed the "church vote" was not unitedly against beer in this instance. The drys also feel that had an opportunity beon given just before the plebiscite to get u revision of the voters' list, it would have gone in their fnvor, claiming that a number of women, and many young people would have voted nay, had their names been on the list. Be all this as it may, the fact remains that Cranbrook hns voted for beer parlors, and in thc course of the next few months thc places duly licensed will most likely open up for business. There have boen various predictions as to how many places will be authorized, rnnging all thc way up to ten or eleven, but general remains that tho general concensus opinion is that four or five is ample for the town, and that to open too many would bc detrimental to all concerned. The revised count of thc ballots took place on Wednesday evening, at the office of the returning officer, W. D. Guthrie, in the presence of W. F. Dornn nnd G. T.

I A Record Fish and Story FUNERAL OF LATE MRS. LE1TCH HELD ON FRIDAY LAST Thc many friends of Mrs. E. Patterson and C. Leiteh, of this city, regretted to learn of thc death in Vancouvor of their mother, Mrs. Louisa M. Leiteh, widow of the late Archibald Leiteh, The deceased lady, who was a native of Ontario, was in her 77th year, and had been a resident of Crunbrook since 1898, when, wilh her husband, she came to Cranbrook, Mr. Leiteh entering the lumber business here. The body was brought rto Cranbrook on Thursday last, and the funeral held on Friday from the Presbyterian church, Rev. M. S. Blackburn officiating. In referring to the deceased, Mr. Blackburn stnted that she had been one of the active workers in the Church, and thc president of the Ladies' Aid when the church was built. Following thc death of her husband in 1910, Mrs. Leiteh lived for a while in Cranbrook, leaving in 1914 to make her home in Vancouver, where she resided with her son, George, und his family, and also Miss Jessie Leltch. The members of her family left to mourn her passing arc George Leiteh and Miss Jessie Ivoiteh, Vancouver, A. K. Leiteh, Mrs. E. Patterson, Colin Leiteh, Mrs. Watson Hall, Winnipeg. Predeceasing her was a daughter, Mrs. Gordon Sutherland, of Calgary. Present at the funeral on Friday were Mr. and Mrs. A. K. Leiteh, Calgary; Miss Jessie Leltch, Vancouver; Mrs. K. Patterson, Colin Leiteh; Miss Marion Leiteh, Nelson; Mr. Gordon Sutherland, C.P.R. divisional superintendent, Calgury, and Malcolm Leiteh, a brother-in-law, of Crunbrook. Many floral tributes testified to the esteem in which the deceased lady was held. The pall beards were Messrs. J. P. Fink. W. R. Grubbe, A. A. MacKinnon. Dr. F. B. Miles, A. Raworth and W. E. Worden. Interment was made in the family plot, where her husband was buried sixteen years ago. CIVIC ELECTIONS WILL SHORTLY BE ENGAGING ATTENTION1 Civic elections are now not far , away, and thc next week or two will j probably see some activity in this direction. At present it is likely there j will bo a contest for the mayoralty, either W. F. Cameron or A. C. Bowness being candidates likely to run, 1 while Mayor Roberts is also being! pressed to consider letting his name, go up for another two-year term, j Aldermen MacPherson, Fink and Cameron are the three whose two- year term expires this year, while another alderman will have to be elected in plnce of 11. B. Hicks, to I fill an unexpired one-year term. This 1 will mean one new face on tht- city council at least, and there Is little I question but that the three first named would be re-elected, if they consent to allow their names to go up again. On the school board the three retiring members are the chairman, K. IL Dezall, and Trustees Mrs. J. Jackson and W. Henderson. It is expected that all three will again be persuaded to run. On the police commission, the term of W. F. Attridge expires this year, and he has already given his consent to running again in response to requests made to him by friends.

Kidder of Kalamazoo, Mi- • Cntgan arrived in Montreal over Canadian Pacific Railway lines, recently with the best "fish story of the year. It was a pretty good story, and we had to believe him, especially when he showed us a forty- fiouml salmon packed awny in ice in he observation car. Now, Mr. Kidder is a pretty good fisherman, but he says thut the experience he had while fishing in Cains Hiver, New Brunswick is absolutely unique, ind that as far as he knows he was successful in hooking what is probably a record salmon with a trout rod and fly. "This fish Is unquestionably the largest hook hill, I have ever seen," tola Mr. Klddert "and thn snmo by _ wardens who viewed the fish in the live box. But thc really great point was the terrific fight that this fish put up. This was so spectacular and so fast and furious, accompanied by rush after rush of 1 f><> to 200 feet, that we had no time to take a picture of it. "My canoe man and myself were busy every second of thc time from twenty minutes past four until after dark. In fact up to the last few minutes of the fight I stood with one foot in the bow of the canoe constantly, when I was not in the canoe and cn&sing the lish back and forth across the stream. 'This lish wus forty-five and three- fourths inches long measured in a Pt might line. If measured around the contour of tho body it would probably show two or three inches longer than this. These measurements were taken after lie had been fighting thr wires of the live box for live or six days, in which he undoubtedly lost a great deal of weight. Perhaps if lis had been measured when first taken from the water he would have been at least two inches more. "Howevpr. nn matter how vou look at it, he was big enough to suit me, and thc act that it was a 'hook blip and -leaping fish' instead of a female or 'sulkcr' gave me that much more satisfaction. Then, toft It was taken with a No. 12 tly, whlc a Is very much smaller than is comf monly used for six inch trout.

This, as usual, brought down the house, and he was obliged 10 respond with an encore. Thc song, "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling." was sung by thc entire company. The second toast of the evening was that to the Grand Lodge, proposed by Brother D. Halcrow and responded to by Brother E. Cook. In proposing this toast to the Grand Lodge, Brother Halcrow paid tribute to thc value of the Grand Lodge, claiming that while there had heen ups and downs, it had been of Inestimable value to the cause for which thoy stood. Brother Cook, of Lumberton, in response, gave an out- lino of the position which tho Grand Lodge held to thc subordinate bodies, likening it to the relations of the federal government to the provinces, making as it did the laws. With regard to the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge to which thoy belonged, ho claimed it to have the distinction of bcing the largest Grand Lodgo in the world, taking in as it did Newfoundland, as well as thc rest of the Dominion. With its legislation committee at Ottawa, it was of much assistance to the various subordinate lodges. It had been at the back of some of the greatest efforts in the 1 cause of Protestantism, many of 1 which were well known to the mem- ben of the lodge. It had field secretaries in each province. Through it, he claimed, Orangism would be upheld by men alwavs ready to assist. He urged them to be always ready to assist the Grand Lodge In support of the principles which wen- dear to all. He also intimated that thc Grand Lodge WOI taking 0 keen interest in the juvenile lodge which was about to be started, they having compiled the necessary ritual and led ure antl secret work. In concluding, he paid tribute to the Grand secretary, William Leigh, of Toronto, who had been in harness for over fifty years. Thc next item on the program was 11 piano solo by Miss Thelma Bartle, , which was heartily encored. A vocal solo by Mr. Hannah, en- litttled "The Guard Ship," was similar- 1 ly "appreciated) Miss Almas Sarvis accompanying at tbe piano. Mr. S. W.

The circumstances surrounding her death were particularly sad, and in consequence of it a large number of bereaved ones are left to mourn the loss of a loving and dutiful mother, wife and daughter. The deceased had been a patient for a short time previous to the birth of a baby boy on November 19th last, following which came complications of a nature which sometimes occur in medical practice, baffling even to the most efficient of doctors. Such was this case; but while science failed to ward off the inevitable, the fight made by Dr. MacKinnon, assisted by the nurses at the hospital, served as but another indication that Cranbrook is possessed of doctors whose work and principles compare favorably with any place on the continent. Though visably affected by his grief, the sorrowing father and husband repeatedly intimated to a Herald representative his appreciation of the devotion of Dr, MacKinnon and the assistance of the nurses. The deceased was a native of Vernal City, Utah, where she was born in 1902, her parents now residing at Glenwood, Alberta, to which place the body is being taken this afternoon. The late Mrs. Greeb was one who was loved by all who knew her, and htr passing loaves a place hard to fill, both in her own home, where the infant boy and two older brothers are left to experience the loss of a kind mother. Mr. Greeb has been for throe yenrs night watchman at the mill at Wnrdner. Five brothers and two slaters of her own familv also remain. FIVE MONTHS' OLD CHILD PASSES AWAY TUESDAY EVENING 'Having brightened their home for but a little while. Rhonda, the five- months' old tittle daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. K. McDonald, was called home on Tuesday night when she fell asleep in the arms of death tt the family home on Armstrong Avenue. The many friends of tht bereaved family were shocked to hear of the death of their little one, is up till a few hours before the child had been in its usual state of health, and least expected of anything was the visitation that caused thc gap that ean never be filled. Be- sides the sorrowing parents, there arc left two girl-, Helen. 8, and Jean, 4 years of age. Thc funeral service was held on Wednesday at '■> p.m.. from Christ Church, Rev. F. V.

ROTARIANS ENTERTAIN CREMBO CLUB MEMBERS AT THEIR LUNCHEON Tuesday noon the Cranbrook Rotary Club had as their guests the Cranbrook Crembo Club, both hosts and visitors bcing of the opinion that u very profitable time was had. Following a delightful luncheon President Fred Scott gave a cordial address of welcome to the Employed Boys, while Rotarian Dr. Green spoke on physical fitness, which doubtless will prove of great value to the boys. For the Crembo Club boys Murray MacFarlane and Fred Fossett responded, expressing their appreciation of the hospitality shown them and pointing out how the Rotarians might be of assistance to them. large number of brothers from Lumberton and other places.

Known by many, Mr. Shira * held in high esteem wherever he haa resided since coming to Canada near ly thirty years ago. In 1897 he came on horseback via Walla Walla over the Dewdney trail to Moyie. Here he located many claims and worked for many years, later staking claims in the old Tracy Camp district, particularly in the Lewis Creek basin, where he still owns property. For a number of years he haa been engaged with the North Kootenay Lands and Lumber Co., whose extensive limits he helped cruise in 1906-1907; he had been caretaker for them for 15 years, taking parties over the timber from time to time and working in connection with the B.C.

To Organise Bowling League Friday evening a meeting will be held in the Y.M.C.A. for the purpose of organiziing a bowling league for the winter season. It is hoped by those interested in this sport that a good number will be present. Shower For Bride Thursday evening last thc home of Miss Jessie Fennessey was the scene of a very pleasant function, when Mrs. Denzil Maxwell was guest of honor at a surprise party held for the purpose of giving her a postnuptial shower. So taken by surprise was thc guest that it was some time before she could realize that all the presents appearing before her when she was freed from her blindfoldedness were hers and not for Miss Florence Finley, at whose birthday party she was supposed to be one of thc guests. Refreshment* and dancing concluded a very merry evening for the twenty or so girl friends present. I A meeting of the school board W88 held oil Friday evening last, with F. II.

No stupid quibblings of pride, honor, expedien cy, could change that. That other WOman—what was she to him? When two people had belonged wholly to each other, body, mind, soul, something had been created out of that complete possession; something eternal and indestructible. That was marriage—the marriage of true minds. There was no other marriage. If only for a moment that bird would be still! She put her hands over her ears, but the wild and piercing madness would not be shut out. lt was like a cry, insistent and fierce. It was like the cry of her soul to Creg, so fierce, so anguished, it seemed he must hear nnd understand. What were a few leagues more or less of land and water between two Immortal souls? She turned with a sharp, convulsive movement, That cry, this odor of a thousand, ten thousand blossoms —she could endure them no longer. She would go back. She would not wait even for the morning. She might not to have come. . . . At the entrance to the balcony Stood a bell boy in uniform—blinking at her through the half darkness. "Qentleman to see you, Miss," he mumbled and then took himself off. There appeared presently in the rehway a substantial, square-built figure. On his light summer coat the moonlight showed a mourning band. -Molly stood frozen, incredulous. Il was a trick of her overwrought senses. Grog was on his way to France. . . , She had asked a miracle, yet dared not trust its fulfillment. It was Greg, but changed—how chnnged—broken and older—Greg, whoso face was never given to show what he felt. Ile stood there with his head bent a little, yet looking at her! -wailing as if for her to give him pei mission to cross the threshold. She tried to speak, to call his name, bin the syllable died on her lips. There wore less than half a dozen steps between them, and yet moment after moment passed—other mo-1 ments—and still they only went on Unking at each other, as if that were tlie sole means of communication left between them. It wns dn ndful to see Greg like that—broken and older, his head bent. "Greg, you did hem*—you came . . . ." She found words at last, took a step toward him. He put out his hands as if to ward hev off. "You must hear first what I have to say." He indicated a rustic bench, but Molly moved back toward the iron railing, stood with her hands gripping it behind her. "I see. . . ." She was surprised herself to note how casual and matter-of-fact she sounded. "You've como to tell me that you do want your freedom, after all. Hut"— she glanced round still n little dazedly— "how did you know I was here?" "Myron Eldredge—-I wired him, "Oh I" He came thin and stood directly in front of her. Dut speech seemed more difficult for him than for her. When other moments had passed in silence, she added: "You did think of a way, then? I knew you would —you're so clever about such things Ile made an odd, half-finished gesture of negation. Don't talk like that, 1 came to throw myself on your mercy—to beg you to forgive Consolidated Mining & Smelting Co. ot Canada, Limited.

Thafis probably right and yet it is a well known (act that the winning player is always willing to quit while lhe losing one will play all night if he can get a game, li seems to bc human nature to desire to rash in on one's profits, to quit a winner, and yet that is one of the greatest mistake* n player can make. The time lO keep on playing is when you are winning. "Push your lut!: and limit your losses," is one of the greatest maxims of the game and yet the one least followed. When you are holding goo-1 cards during an evening's play, tlon't think about taking home your profits, Keep on playing while your lunk lasts ii nil don't stop until it changes. On the other hand, it you are losing, don't keep on playing. A bad luck streak is one of the hardest things to break there is, so don't try it. One of Un.* best "money" players in the country, and by "money player" is meant a man who plays auction bridge for high stakes nnd wins, makes it an invariable rule to stop playing if lit; loses three .rubbers in succession, [t may not be fctvwl sportsmanship but it certainly is good judgment. Think it over and see whether you are getting the most out of your good cards and losing as little as possible when yon are holding poor cards. If you can learn this lesson and stick lo it, you have made great strides toward becoming a winning player. The other night a point was raised une of the New Vork Card Clubs that outied considerable discussion. The dealer bid one club, second hand [auaed, ♦.ml the dealer's partner held the following hand: Hearts—iO, 8,4, 2 Clubs— now; Diamonds— :o,9, 7,6, S «p«fcs--J,8,5,J Should he deny his partner's club Md or pass? As a general rule a player sfaorfd overbid his partner's bid when be baa two or less of the suit, but to justify such procedure he should haw at least one trick in his hand, either in the tint bid or half a trick in the suit bid aid half a trick on the side. Never dew your partner's bid without a trick w your hand. Such procedure is as bad aa passing with many tricks in the other nits but only one card of your part- er'a suit. Aud ion is a partnership guaa nd you cm get the best results oaty by telling your partner the truth. Whe* vou deny his suit bid you should tell him two things: First, that you have only two small cards or less of hia suit; and second, that yoa have at least a trick in your hand aad a salt worth playing for. If those dementi mnm\\ th present, pass and let your part mt ar the burden, In the hand gne-a, the dealer's partner should pass.

He touched the band of crepe on his sleeve. "My mother—she went all at once like a tree with the nxe laid to the root. She told me. I think she wunted to tell me sooner, but she didn't know how. ..." "Your mother—she told you .. . V Holly was silent with the wonder of that. Then, "Greg, you mustn't think I'm not guilty—just as guilty as you believed me—only I didn't know it. It was my own stubborn, headstrong will. Tonight, for the first time, I've seen it ull clearly." "Never mind ubout that. After all, it wasn't your going—or the reason given—that hurt most. It was your not letting me help you. I knew what it was like for a woman of your sort alone in a great city. I used to sit alone and picture it to myself— the hardships, privations, hunger p.-rhaps. ... It was torture. For yenrs I tried to find you. Then that dny when you came into my office, I thought you luul what you wanted— all you wanted. ... I thought maybe you—pitied me a little. . . ." Molly caught his big, square hands in hers, covered them with penitent, hot kisses, with hot, self- reviling tears. "You're so much bigger than I am, Greg—always so much finer und more generous. I'm ashamed to tell you—1 didn't realize even then thut that was one of the ways I was hurting you. I was thinking only of my own pride, my own miserable self-respect. * , *" He did not say anything at all. He pulled her head down against his breast, smoothed and stroked her hair, made awkward little patting motions about her shoulders. "1 wish you wouldn't cry like that," he said after a while. THE END FERNIE CURLERS FEEL EFFECTS OF POOR SEASON FISHERIES INSPECTOR OUTLINES CHANGES IN LOCAL ANGLING SEASON Nelson, B.C., Nov. 17th, 1926. Re Amendments - Fishery Regulations Dear Sir: For your information and other interested members, I beg to advise that the general close season for trout has been modified, hereunder, I beg to quote P.C. 876, paragraph 4, as follows: 'Excepting as herein otherwise provided, in the waters of the Mainland cast of the 121st meridian and in that portion of the Mainland lying north of a line running due east and west through the town of Clinton, no one shall fish for, catch or kill trout of nny kind from the fifteenth dny of November in each year to tho twenty-third day of Mny following, both days Inclusive, ia streams, and from the first day of March to the thirtieth day of April, in each year, both duys inclusive, in lakes." According to the above mentioned regulation nngling can be conducted J during the winter for trout in lake», provided climatic conditions will allow, but fishing for trout through the iee in any waters is prohibited. As you are already aware, accord- ng to P.C. 456, paragraph 6, provided that fishing for trout in ftt- mier, Horseshoe, Smith, Bock and Twin Lakes may be conducted from April fifteenth to November fourteenth, in each year, both days inclusive. There is an open season for Rocky Mountain whiteflsh, chub and Dolly Varden trout, char or Bull trout. I am, air, Your obedient servant, C. H. ROBINSON, Fishery Overseer. W. Steward, Esq., Sec'y, Cranbrook Rod and Gun Club, [Cranbrook, B.C. At the annual meeting held hist week of the Fernie Curling Club, the membership last yeur wus shown to have dropped to 01, a much smaller number than is usually enrolled, but fairly satisfactory when the poor) playing season of lnst year is taken into consideration. The report nlso showed the Club to be in rather bail shape financially, and brought out several suggestions for the raising of money during the coming seuson. One of these, thnt a free-for-all hon spiel be held, was adopted, and other j will quite likely be used before tho season is finished. The following officers were elected for the 192G-27 eason: Hon. Pres Harvey Brown President A. Watson 1st Vice-Pres Wm. Baldrey 2nd Vice-Prea J. R. Wallace Chaplain Rev. Best Secretnry A. Walrte Executive Committee—P. Bean, J. Wilson, J. MacDonald. Several suggestions were made in connection with improvement of thc procedure of the game. It was finally decided that on ench Friday the skip would take the lead's position and each player would take the position above the one usually played. Last year's system of draw was adopted. It was also decided to start the season with a free-for-all bonspiei and that the president nnd vice- president competitions tuke place on New Year's day. The fees were set nt $12.00 for former players, and $8.00 for green curlers. The ladies' fees are $5.00. 'DIAPEFSIN" ENDS STOMACH MISERY, GAS, iKDIGESTlON Instantly! Stomach corrected!

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9th, 1920 MAKING CHRISTMAS SANE THERE are two Lit- nf advice whicli it is folly lo ignore in this season. The one i-* "Do Your Christmas Shopping Early," and "Send Ynur Christmas Mail Early" is the second. Fools heed neither, but if the observance of both is proof of ran* wisdom then tin* world iN wiser, Ii was but a few years ago lhat (In* major portion of the Christmas shopping was done during Christinas week, and the Christmas rush in the mails did not begin until tlie eleventh hour. The result was that unfavorable shopping conditions and congested mails ruined Christmas Day for countless thousands. How much saner and how much more satisfactory for I'll concerned arc the modern practices of starting tbe gift-buying season in November, and of starting the gifts through the mails in ample time to insure their punctual delivery. Whether one looks at the question frnm the selfish nr impersonal points of view, the arguments are all in favor of early shopping aud early mailing. Early shopping gives one tlie pick of the new and undepleted Christmas stocks, leisurely selection, more satisfactory service and less jostling.

But the real earmark of the progressive city is its stores. The real badge of prosperity is the type of retail stores a city boasts. The advertising columns of this newspaper demonstrate the fact that Cranbrook has stores ot which any city may be proud and as metropolitan as those of many boasting larger population. And the stores themselves are as interesting as tbe advertising announcements they make. :f * * + * LOSS TO THE PROVINCE ■HE untimely death this week of A. O. Cochrane, member of the Legislature for N'orth Okanagan, removes from public life one whom it was confidently expected by bis friends would have forged to the front of affairs by his own merit before very long. lie won the seat from Dr. K. C. McDonald, after the latter had been named as a cabinet minister, and Mr. Cochrane soon proved iu the Legislature that he \\\\a> a power in the ranks of the Opposition, particularly nn questions affecting the Okanagan Valley. In the event of the formation of a provincial Conservative administration, there is little question but that he would have been given a place. The opening of a Conservative seat in this unexpected way naturally gives rise to the question as to whether this untoward happening will be the means of providing a seat for Dr. Tolmie. the newly elected Conservative leader for the province. A lot depends on the attitude of tlte government in this respect, and by this no doubt the Conservatives will be guided. The by-election has to be held within hx months, and while the vacancy in North Okanagan could now scarcely be filled in time for the opening of the session, it could very soon thereafter. . . thus allowing Dr. Tolmie time to get his bearings in "■I1KY are as interesting as anything that one may the Legislature, if it is decided to be the best course peruse these days -the Christmas advertise-, for him to take the seat.

After a long period of torture the hostess turtle dto Shaw and asked raptuously: "Well, Mr. Shnw, what do you thing of my discovery?" "I find him a great resemblance to Pnderewski," replied Shnw. The hostess was puzzled for u moment, und then answering correctly: "Oh. but Pmlcrcwski is not a violinist." "Exactly," answered G. B. S. Orange Lodge Holds First Annual Banquet Friday Last (Continued from Page One) of the friends from Lumberton and other places it wns indeed a pleasure for them to hnve the opportunity of being present. This was followed by the usual singing of the song of good fellowship. The toast to the Indies was then proposed by Brother J. A. Young, who showed himself to be a man of exceptional daring in ■the manner in which he made the proposal. How he got away with this is still a mystery to those present. Mr. Young intimated that his would not be the ordinary manner, and he brought down the house when he reud excerpts from various papers throughout the continent with regard to the up-to-dateness of the girl of today. In conclusion, Mr. Young showed himself in his true colors, an ardent admirer of the fair sex, by quoting possibly one of the finest tributes to women that possibly could have been written. Mrs. Robson of Lumberton and Mrs. Baxter of Crunbrook were naturally tuken by surprise by the unique proposul of Mr. Young, but were equal to the occasion, und mnde quite a hit with their responses. Mrs. Baxter particularly coming out more than even In her witty reply. Mr. Jock McDonald next contributed with the selection "I Love a Lassie," and in response to an encore, pleased the audience with the recitation of "Burn's Address to the Haggis." The community song, led hy Mr. Les Dwelley, was the next item on the program, the solo pnrt "Hi Ho. the Merry O" being taken by him. Mrs. Norgrove next favored with a vocal solo entitled "Little Mnn," to which she responded with another pleasing selection, "Out of the Dusk." Mr. John Fingal Smith then favored with a selection on the pipes. The toast of the evening, which concluded the function, was thut of "The Faith of Our Fathers." The speaker, Brother W. Dobson, of Lumberton, in making the toast, put forward the question as to whether they were keeping fuith with those extremely religious men who hnd kept Protestantism in the fore- I ground, With respect to the allegiance to the British Empire nnd sustaining it, he also questioned whether they were keeping faith. He referred t0 the spirit of the Empire Loyalists, and also referred to the present tendency of reducing our relation to the mother country to that of a position in which the King was about the only sign that we had left. He did not see any reason why we should begin to dismember the British Empire. In response to this proposal, Rev. Harrison was first to reply. In on interesting manner he showed how the Church to which he belonged had been instrumental in sustaining and keeping up the fuith for which they stood. Rev. Wallace reviewed in nn interesting way many angles hy which it could he judged whether or not we had been living up to the faith of our fathers—greater liberty, freedom .from fear, nnd an open Bible were among the things which we continue to enjoy as a result of loyalty. He regretted, however, that the children in the schools were learning more about Buddha than they were ahout Christ through the Bible. The L.O.L. were using their efforts to secure the use of the Bible in the school. lu nn address that was attentively listened to, Rev. M. S. Blackburn mnde u valuable contribution to the reply to the toast, in which he paid tribute to Ornngism, claiming thut there wus much for which the church wus indebted to them. He referred also to other commendable principles for which Ihe Orange Order stood. Rev. Mr. Fleming, who concluded the replies, paid tribute to the useful Work which the lodge wns performing. He felt that theie wu., much room for improvement in the work Of the Church. While in the popular conception of the term we hud the open Bible today, he wondered whether or not it wns more often closed —und whether we were living up to the hest that was in us. He paid tribute to the zealousness of the faithful of the past, and wus of the opinion thnt more could be accomplished if they could again catch a little of the zeal of their forefathers. Miss Almns Sarvis rendered n piano solo, "An Old English Country Dance," which was much appreciated and encored.

This meeting proved to be very interesting and instructive, taking the form of a "mock trial." Mr. Spreull, to whom the young people owe a great deul, acted in the important position of judge. Mr. Jack Barber and Mr. Tom Marshall filled in splendidly as constable and court crier, Miss Smith filling the import- nnt place of clerk of the court. The jury was drawn for and Mr. Norman Wasson selected as foreman. The case was a breach of promise one. The plaintiff, Miss Vivian Kummer, sued Mr. Bill Leigh for $200,- 000. Vernon Carlyle nnd Winnifred Beale acted for the crown, Stanley Moffatt and Miss Ivy Dezall acting for the defence. The lawyers for the crown presented a very convincing case. Mr. Harold Kummer, Mr. Graham Dale and Miss Elsie Willis acting as witnesses, the plaintiff ulso taking thc witness stand. The lawyers for the defence on the other hund presented an equally convincing cuse. Rev. B. Wallace, Miss Nora Brander, Miss Mary Shaw, Miss .McDermid, Miss Vera Baxter, Mrs. Wallace nnd Miss Aubrey McKowan acted as witnesses for the de- fendant, ulso taking the witness stand. Miss Winnifred Beale tried very hard to get the defence witnesses twisted, and her arguments were splendid. Both sides summed up their ease and left it to the jury to bring in a verdict for their side. Judge Spreull summed up the case, impressing on the jury the signs of insanity and if so they must reduce the indemnity. The jury were out for a short time, and brought in a verdict of "guilty," damages to be 30 cents. Judge Spreull closed the court, ruling the counsel for the crown pay the expenses. A splendid lunch wns served, and a vote of thanks tendered Mr. Spreull for so kindly assisting the Society, The meeting closed by singing "God Save the King." The meeting next Tuesduy tukes the form of n "stunt night." We're Hard to Please When a chap is young a week hasn't nights enough, and when he gets older there aren't enough days, bo there you are.

SENDS BACK REPORT Tho following is a summary of tho proceedings of the annual mooting of the B.C.A.H.A. held in Messrs. Spal- dlngs Ltd. Rooms, Hastings Street, Vancouver, on Saturday, November 13th, 1920, at 8.00 p.m. Present: J. P. Watson, president iu chair; Mr. Dingman, vice-president; Messrs. Mackln, St. iKmis, Fellows, Hess, of the executive, and Messrs. Bentham, Corkham, Chapman, Code Wickson, Campbell, Mould, Smith, Walker, Richmond nnd Willis, delegates, and Tweedle, secretary. Tlie president, J. P. Watson, gave :i very interesting address covering tho past season and nlso touching on tho proposed line-up for the next season, The secretary's report nnd statements wore read, and, after considerable discussion, wore adopted. This report will he sent out to all clubs ns soon as possible. It showed a balance of $1,500.00 odd, as against $1,000.00 odd last year, this amount including, however, tho sum of $2111.00 profit on intermediate tournament nnd $200.00 giant from C.A.H.A. for junior hockey. To Help With Expeniet Tbe first business taken up wns the expenses of tho intermediate tennis last year, and after considerable discussion aiii] a good deal of opposition the sum of $850.00 was set aside to bo divided pro rntn amongst the three clubs travelling to that tournament, to he divided pro rata to their expense accounts. In future tbe Intermediate teams can only hope to got a similar division. Tho Towers Cluh presented a bill for thirteen medals, $150.00, for payment, and this led to n long and hot di bate as to whether thc association could afford to supply medals for the championship team. After a series of motions and amendments in various forms had heen put forward and turned down, it wns finally left to tbo Incoming executive to go into lhc matter of supplying them in full, i'. hut nol to retro-active. All the delegates were asked to report on their districts and I gavo an outline of affairs and what we wre doing for juniors in tho district generally. To Help Junior Hockey A sum of $200 has been granted by the C.A.II.A. for the encouragement of junior hockey, 20 nud under, and the incoming executive wore instructed to go into the matter and take what stops they can toward encouraging thc game. The Allen Cup finals will be play- rd in Vancouver th's season and the Thc Had River Expedition i (Continued) The obstructions the expedition met with from the start were only showing the development of the courage, endurance and patience of all the men engaged in the undertaking. The whole narrative is too much forgotten or ignored by the average native son who was not born at that period, and our histories and school books overlook the stupendous difficulties overcome. The "nurrative," as it was mildly called, tolls of the curious incidents of a journey which illustrates so remarkably the powers of endurance possessed by the British soldier, whether belonging to the regular or to our colonial army. Colonel Wolseley expressed the highest admiration for the resource shown hy the Canadians, whether shooting the rapids or using the axe to clear I away what appeared impenetrable obstruction. It w^s this splendid quality that Colonel Wolseley wished to have in his expedition on tho Nile on the way to try and save lbe noble and devoted Gordon imprisoned at Khartoom. Impede Rather Than Help The native tribes were not of any assistance. In fact, they had to be treated with bribes of presents. They expected to be well-paid by travelers in presents and provisions, so thoir presence along the line of route added to the difficulties to be overcome, as all such presents would have to be carried by tho troops, and every pound of extra weight was a serious matter. For the conveyance of tb" provisions and stores between Thunder Bay and Sabandownn, a considerable transport would be required, all the material for which would have to bo sent there in steamers, as also the forage required for animals, for neither hay nor grass was to be bad on the spot. Indeed, to get a military force to Red River, it was necessary to semi it complete with all warlike appliances, and with at least two months' provisions, through a wilderness for a distance of about 600 miles, whore no supplies of any description were obtainable. It was no wonder, therefore, that tho government paused and considered well beforo they committed nny other Imperial troops to an operation beset with such difficulties, and where any serious mistakes on the part of those who conducted it would most probably have led to disastrous results. , Expedition On Its Way Kventi were thickening. A force of seven hundred volunteers and five hundred regulars under command of Colonel Garnet J. Wolseley was soon wending its weary way by lakes and rivers and wilds to revenge the death of Seott, to restore British-Canadian rule and to bring peace and harmony to a now hunted and cowardly people. Royal commissioners had meanwhile been sent up by the Dominion government and Donuld A. Smith, raised to the peerage us Lord Strath- cona and Mount Royal, had used his personal influence and that of the Hudson's Bay Company to restore order, without much avail. They had, however, with the aid of Bishop Tache, prevented any more Scott episodes. On August 24th Wolseley reached Fort Garry, in the heart of the Rod River settlement, only to find that tho tiny phantom of a republic had crumbled into dust and that Riel had fled to the United States. There he was destined to pass several years of exile, and from thence he eventually came to lead another and more serious insurrection. Colonel Wolseley quickly restored order, and escaped the Lieutenant- Governorship which it was understood be was willing to accept, highly praised the volunteer portion of his force and returned home to become, eventually, commander-in-chief of the army, and one of the two or three leading British soldiers of his period. Province It Formed Manitoba was organized under the terms of the British North America Act and admitted into the Confedera^ tion with all the privileges of a province, while Fort Garry in time be came the preat prairie city and commercial centre — Winnipeg. Such was the constitutional birth of Manitoba. It was, and is, a small pro. vince, but comprises within it the most fertile soil in the world, and the most marvelous wheat-bearing qualities. North, east and west of it stretched the boundless pruiries and plains, rivers, valleys, lakes and streams, of what were then the practically unknown Northwest Territories, The conditions on the Red River during this period wns lawlessness and a daring defiance of everything thnt could promote peace. Tho fire brand, Kiel, seemed to control the country. It was acknowledged on all sides that the proceedings of the Canadian government were unfortunate and injudicious, und were caused I byJ ignorance of conditions. But' the Colonial Secretnry afterwards commended publicly tho singular Judgment, decision und conciliation since this unfortunate outbreak. Two commissioners from Canada, Grand Vicar Thibault, who had spout more than thirty years in tbe Northwest, and Colonel doSnlebory, son of the Vicur of f hateauquny, wore sent on a mission of peace ami concilia- lion. Their papers, including a proclamation of December oth, were seized "hy order" hy O'Donoghue, and Riel informed ihem through the "secretary" that their instructions! from Canada failed to reveal "any requisite power to treat with I hi' I people." Tbo very reverend gentle-! mnn and his associate were politely] bowed out of sight. Tlu* quiet arriv- j al of Commissioner Donald A. Smith,1 however, gave promise oi' a national | settlement As un officer of Lhe Hudson's Bay Compuny ho was to ns- I sist, or, in case of emergency, replace Governor McTavish, holding confi- j lontinl relations with the Canadian government, he wns in n position to enlighten the Metis with regard to tho details of the most liberal policy. (To ho continued) Firm Minded "What's that you call your mule?" "I call him 'Corporation,' " answered the old colored man. "How did you come to giye him such a name?" "F'um studyin' de animal an' read- in* de papa lis. Hut mule gets mo' blame uu' abuse dan anyt'ing else in de township, an' goes ahead havln' his own way jes' de same." Tact Frosh: "Yes, Charlotte, I'm crazy about you. I'm tired of all these other girls. I admit they're nil knockouts, good-looking, wonderful dancers, and dress like u million, but nevertheless, I'm tired of them." "But why then do you fall so for me?" "Oh, oh, you'ro so, so different." ******* ******* ************ association will have to take steps to make necessary arrangements for their entertainment, etc., and will probably ask clubs for support. This, together with the fact that there will not be any professional huckqy at the Coast this year, should give Amateur hockey a big boost in the province.

It was a very good meeting and while discussions were brisk and lively, they were all in good part, the outstanding feature being whnt I mentioned before, that if only the Interior wilt get together, they have control of the body.

Fire destroys many beautiful homes and buildings. Fire is aho a loss to the nation as a whole. Many people are left homeless by the great plague— Fire. The factories which have sup- plied the people of this Nation with useful articles, and have supported many families who work in the different departments, can be destroyed in twenty-four hours by the red plague—Fire. Over two-thirds of theee losses are caused by carelessness or ignorance. The amount of) fires caused by ignorance is decreasing rapidly. Fire prevention is taught in all schools today, and fre quently talked of from the public platform. My parents have always told and shown me the danger of fire. They have also tried in every way to prevent fire in our home. We never light the stove with coal-oil or gasoline, as it may explode when the match is used. Matches are never left in anything but a metal container, and always in a cool place. When we are emptying ashes we are very careful to put them in a tin box and not put them near the back fence, as they may catch fire. After mother has dusted with a oiled rag it is put ire a tin box in a cool place, because it starts fire very easily. Fire is sometimes caused by defective wiring. We are careful to see the electric wire is covered by the casing, which will prevent the wire from burning other things near at hand. My father never neglects to have the stove pipes cleaned monthly, and to CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF CRANBROOK COURT OF REVISION NOTICE is hereby given that the Court of Revision for revising and correcting Municipal Voters' list for the year 1927, will sit at 7.30 p.m., December 10th, in the Municipal Buildings, Norbury Avenue, Cranbrook, B.C.

Our chimney is cleaned about twice a year or oftener in the winter to prevent Bparks catching on to the wood and burning the house. We never put clothes near the Btove, ns a spark might fly up and set the clothe.* on fire, which would spread and eventually set the room on fire. When mother is cooking meat and some grease happens to start a blaze, ■■.%<■ never throws water on it, as that would only splash or spread the blaze on something near, but puts salt or flour on, which would at once smother it. In the winter when we have th* heater burning, we always have a large tin next to the wall to prevent the woodwork from catching on fire. Boys and girlfl can help to prevent fire by talking to the younger generation how dangerou.- to themselves and their homes playing with matches is. This would prevent the fires caused by children, whicli is a large percentage. Another way you can prevent the destruction of the home, money and happiness, is by taking all precaution in your own home and surroundings to prevent fire. The other way to prevent the loss from being bo great is to insure properly your property and furniture against fire. OLIVE NORGROVE.

The turnout was rather discouraging, only four of the townsmen being present, and while a few visiting ladies weru present, not all of the members were able to attend. The evening opened at 8 o'clock, by the singing of 0 Canada, and the usual business meeting of the association was held. Funds on hand permitting their purchase, the first of the items necessary to the school were brought under discussion bv the president, in the chair, and it was mentioned that n clock, and also a first-aid outfit, he purchased for use in the schools immediately. This motion was carried, and the recording-secretary instructed as to their purchase. This was the only- piece of new business voted upon that evening. A program was offered by Miss Laurine Corbett, taking the place of the program convenor, owing to the unavoidable absence of the latter, and included a piano st lection by Mrs. Paul Storey, a recitation by Walter MaeKenzie. and a piano solo by Miss Laurine Lawson. All three items were admirably rendered by the performers, Walter's, a comedy-poem relating to the universal habit of '1,» feminine sex of driving thc family car from the rear seat, bringing out a good laugh. A vote qf thanks wbb offered the artists of the evening by the association. The meeting then closed with the singing of "God Save The King," and the business meeting adjourned. The following hour was spent socially and in games, and at ten o'clock, refreshments were served bv the social convenor, Mrs. C, Hamrin, and her committee, Bernard Anderson left on Tuesday- evening's train for his home in Fernie, after spending the past couple of weeks in Wardner, visiting his uncle, Mr. A. Anderson, of the section house. Mr. J. Martinos is having an extension built upon his ston thl* week. The work is in charge of Mr, Win. Oversby, and consists of a now warehouse and living quarters. The present warehouse is being added to the store, the partitions being removed in order to give more room in the store. Upon thc completion of the new building it is stated that Mr. Martinos plans on opening a new dry- goods department, including men's furnishings. In last Tuesday's edition <>f the Nelson News. Mr. John Carlson was again found in print, this time also in connection with an accident. The news item Btated that while engeged at his work at the sawmill, Bonnington Falls, where he is employed, Mr. Carlson received a nasty accident in which the four fingers of his left hand were completely severed. It will be remembered that Mr. Carlson also suffered a motoring accident a few weeks previously. Mr. Carlson was formci ly a Wardner resident, being employed on the green chain of the local plant, ns grader. Mr. Jamee Eastwood, of Vulcan, Alta., arrived in Wardner this week, and will make his home here during the winter. Mr. Eastwood was accompanied by his son, Earl, and at present, they are making an extended visit at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Geo. Renick.

Several casta of Unallltia have ***** rmmanUA Msooff tha townspeople [during the past week. The cases nre mainly among the kiddies, and lieavj CoWfl are also taking toll, making the school practices fur the Christ mas concert rather difficult.

DAUGHTERS AND MAIDS OF ENGLAND LODGE FORMED AT KIMBERLEY the B.C. Agent-General, in London thus becoming a medium for disseminating reliable information as to mining possibilities in this district, In the British Isles: East Kootenay was first proved as a mineralized area with the shipping of lend ores from the St. Eugene Mine on Moyie Lake In 1898, a year marked by the advent of the B.C. Southern Railway. Prior to thnt lime, mining in the district wai carried on under adverse conditions The North Star Mine, pioneer shipper of lead aud zinc in the crude, had worked under the handicap of a long wagon haul and transference of its ore to river steamers plying between Fort Steele and Jennings, Montana, from whence its produce was conveyed by rail to the smelter at Butte. Imini-nit Po»ai bili tie* Last Kootenay owes its existence as a proved mineral field to the lead- zinc flotation process of ore reduction. Immense and easy of access uh are ils ore bodies, notably those of the Sullivan and North Star-Stem- winder Mines at Kimberley—there were d: •■,- days in the history of the mining industry prior to the application of the new process to the reduction of Kast Kootenay ore. Today llu* Sullivan, with ils recorded net earnings of $11,216,000 in 1926, lanks with tin* world's most outstanding metalliferous mines, and it is reasonable to presume in the face of vigorous development by the Porcupine Gobi fields Mining Company, that the North Star-Stem winder will shortly run the Sullivan a close second in point of production, situated as it is Immediately across the gulch Irom the famous dividend-earner. It is also quite in order to mention lhat active diamond-drilling opera- lions are being carried out by the Bennetts of Minneapolis to the eastward of and immediately adjoining Ihe Sullivan property. Tbat opera* tion is to be credited to mining successes attained during the past few years by reason of splendid transportation facilities, the new and profitable treatment uf ores, and recognition by millions, far-sighted and Highly experienced mining men Ki all' Ko An Interesting ceremony was held in Kimberley one evening recently, when a new lodge of tbe Daughters und Maids of England was instituted under the direction of Mrs. J. Brown, D.D.G.P., and a degree team of ladies of Princess Aliee lodge, No. fi, of Nelson. The new members were initiated, after which nomination and election of officers took plnce, which resulted as follows: Past President, Sister A. Marsden; President, Sister Boardman; Vice-President, Sister Mason; Chaplain, Sister Baxter; Secretary, Sister Crewdson; Treasurer, Sister B. Boardman; First Guide, Sister Thompson; Second Guide, Sister Martha Cunliffe; Third Guide, Sister Florence Mason; Fourth Guide, Sister M. Clar- ricoates; Inside Guard, Sister Myra Hughes; Outside Guard, Sister Hale. An address was made by Bro. T. Marsden, and the president and chaplain encouraged the memhers to go ahead and work together for the good of the order, remembering always the high ideals for which it stands. The members of I,odgo Princess Elizabeth, No. 1)7, of Kimherley, then served refreshments, nfter thanking Lodge Princess Alice for their kindly help and assistance In instituting the n»w lodge. having been dem- ated as a mining field of im- e me deposits. The truth of assertion is made manifest by onslant presence of mining enrs of high repute, who. nn be- nf big mining interests, are superintending prospecting work of an eminently s< .< ntlfic ordt r, conducted on a scale so extensive as to make the prospector of bygone days catch his bri ath ti sheer astonishment. It s an unalterable ami undisputed t'aet lhat East Kootenay's ores lie leep. A sal'i' assertion to make is hat there an* hut few surface mines n the district, and that condition ob- ains in copper deposits as in bodies if zinc-lead a feature that promises much for the permanence of the local nining industry. Copper Ore Bodtei .There are several mining men in he district who are building on the hope of developing copper mines .vithin easy reach of transportation. On Ilull River, thirty miles east of Cranbrook, less than six miles from the KooU-nay Central Railway, active prospecting in a body of grey copper has been conducted for a period of three years. Another deposit of grey copper located on Copper Creek near Skookumchuck, is responding satisfactorily after several years of exploration. It is also generally conceded that a reputedly large deposit of low grade copper ore on White- fish Creek, tributary of the St. Mary's River, warrants the attention of capital, being militated against only by a lack of railway facilities. Bodies of silver-lead ore of excellent quality on Hell-roaring Creek, served partly by wagon road and partly by pack trail are also being worked, one group quite extensively as is indicated by the owners having recently imported a small air compressor for the driving of a five hundred foot tunnel, for the opening up of the ore body nt depth. Another promising group is situated on Perry Creek, a free milling gold property, in which local men are interested. There, it is authentically reported gold ore has been uncovered that carries values in excess of seven ounces to the ton in gold. It is quite within the limit of nroh: bility that this mine will soon be on lhe shipping list, development naving been pushed to thn point of practically proving the five ore shoots Known to exist on the property. On Ho.:eth:cf Creek in the Windermere district, Cranbrook prospectors recently uncovered a three foot ledge of silver-lend ore, assaying up to $160.00 per ton. Driving in at depth on a fissure vein on Lesser Sand ("reek has revealed the presence of a workable and well defined shoot of silver-lead ore of undoubted quality. It is authentically reported that the owners of these properties have received flattering offers for their holdings. It is yet too early to predict the future of non-metallic mining in the district, nevertheless the erection of a plant for the treatment of gypsum is by no means improbable, that, by reason of the fact that gypsum is now lieing mined at Mayook, ten miles east of Cranbrook on the B.C. Southern Railway, tho Canada Cement Co., of Montreal, taking eighty tons of material per week from their new. I ly acquired property at that point, j The Mayook gypsum deposit com- prises cloven claims, two only of | which ore held by the Canada Cement people. Two other gypsum deposits are known to exist in the district, one being situated at Wnrdner on the B.C. Southern Railway, the other being situated at Bull River within four miles of rail transportation. I May Mean Big Smelter The inference to be drawn from the erection, at a cost of approximately $2,000,000 of the huge ore reduction plant of thn Consolidated Mining and Smelting Co. at Kimberley, and an auxiliary plant of 600 tons daily capacity at Moyie, is that i East Kootenay is soon to have its smelter. Mining men are predicting] an output of 8,000 tons of silver-lead I ore a day within the next few years, basing their calculations on impending shipments from the North Star Stemwinder Mine, coupl<«t to inrrean* en to srnnll operators to ship ore now on their dumps, when BUch shipping a no longer militated against by a long and expensive railway haul. Assuredly East Kootenay will have its smelter soon. Everything now points to the early erection of such a Utility, It Is an open secret that the Porcupine Goldfleldi people ar contemplating such a move. Mining men in East Kootenay are looking forward to big things. Their optimism is fully justified, the districts of ( ranbrook and Columbia are rapidly coming into their own. East Kootenay is fast forging to the front as a producer of mineral wealth. W. S. SANTO. Chairman.
