I THE CONTRACT The exact procedure fojlowed by these three musketeers is a matter of small moment. The procedure is much the same iu all cases.

All that was needed Was to bring*- this natural wealth to tide-water and for that .a railway- 'was a necessity. Certain far sighted businessmen of Vancouver liad for a considerable time been interested in this problem and having acquired timber licenses and land in the ordinary way. bad built from tide-water ten miles of railroad, at their own expense. Premier McBride.on February 13, 1913���those who are superstitious will 'note the conjunction of the fatal number 13���stated that several "large organizations bad instructed themselves in linking up Vancouver and Fort George by a line of railway���tbe contract with Messrs. Foley, Welch and Stewart had been made in the general public interest." Obviously so; the interest of the public is quite genuine, it has just amounted to over $300,000 this year. WHY WORK FOR OTHERS? Hut presumably these large organizations were not considered sufficiently artistic to construct a railway on approved principles. To do this the government sought thc aid of men who had proven themselves grcat artists, and thus naturally there appeared upon the scene the three musketeers whose names were a household word in the annals of this peculiar art. Of the various adventures of these three there is not space to tell. The Grand Trunk Pacific, the Canadian Northern Pacific knew them well. To those railways, tbe three musketeers were contractors That is they actually constructed portions of thc lines tinder the aegis of others. This time they determined that others should construct the Pacific Great Eastern under their aegis. After all why should they work for ���others. If their experience had taught them anything, it -was to be first on the ground,���not railway ground, but ^ choose lhe kind of work. These matters, however, h little to do with the art of railway building Sordid details of business which an- in-.re or less wearisome and unromantic. Vet to really appreciate ail il is necessary to know Something of technique. There is more technique in letting sub-contracts than appears on the surface, as may become apparent a little later. THE AMATEUR RAILWAY BUILDER The. amateur who has no training and no technical know- leilge of the art of railway construction, or tbe art of politics, would be inclined to proceed on very simple lines. He would put himself in the place of a government which, stirred to action by the clamor of the populace, determined to construct a railroad from Vancouver to Fort George. Knowing nothing whatever about tbe construction of railways, he would engage the services of an engineer of repute whom he would ask to lay out the route and estimate the cost. The Turkish government was able to engage such an expert for building its new waterways in Mesopotamia. There is a distinguished Canadian engineer, Sir Percy Girouard, who, no doubt, would be quite capable of building any railway for a government. Tbe amateur then, let it bc supposed, having obtained the services of Sir Percy, would await bis report and on reviewing' it, publish it so as to advertise thc great work- he was about to undertake. Sir Percy in bis report would state that the railway would probably cost $35,000 a mile to construct, lie would also .carefully estimate the probable development of the country through which tbe proposed railway would run, which would enable the amatqur to estimate the probable revenue. Sir Percy would also state that be would advise construction to commence at two or three different places and that it would cost about $5,250,000 to complete 150 miles of railway in the next twelve months.

The discovery of the wrong is merely an incident ja IKlM-\\ mess '""' is cl" which warns others to be more careful in covering lhe trail. So the government which wants to build a railway negotiates with certain well-known gentlemen whose success -in railway contracting has given them fame and wealth. That is going by precedent. The general recipe for construction follows���anyone can use it if they have a good cook in a well-equipped kitchen as a personal friend. RECIPE FOR BUILDING RAILWAYS Take a large section of country, as new as possible, and draw a line anywhere across it. If someone else has already done this it makes no difference, except in tbe color of your line. Then call on tbe nearest government and ask for guaranteed bonds. All governments keep' a large stock of these . They are the commonest produce. Be ready to sign any agreement requested. It makes no difference what you sign if you only make sure that the lawyer'who represents you is a partner of the lawyer who represents tbe government. Having secured' the necessary guaranteed bonds, proceed to London or New York and mix them as quickly as possible in the money market. They will come otlt dough. The exact weight or amount is not of much importance, but for the sake of clarity it may be as well to use $10,000,000 of guaranteed bonds as an example and basis on which to commence cooking. These bonds would probably lose about $31X1,000 in the mixing process, which being accomplished, place the resultant $9,700,000 in your bank account and take the first boat or train back whence you came. On arrival at once form a company with yourself as president. You knead tbe presidency with the dough which you have produced. Place this dough of 59,700,000 in the oven of tbe company, first extracting $970,000 with which to cover travelling expenses and commission for securing the ne- REPEAT THE DOSE I Supposing, however, all li - well and tlu station man - veetens tin pot. you are well .n. ihc wa} t. turning out the finished product, li is a- veil to proceed -lowly with the whole recipe, [or while ii continues to simmer it becomes richer all the time Don't let it hod over, ii makes carelessness, li it does not seem rich enough to your taste after a year or so, add guaranteed bonds as often as possible. If by any mischance the government you originally obtained iliem from has changed and the new government has none for yoit in stock ��� the recipe is really spoilt for good. Throw up tbe whole thing, go into liquidation at once and shrug yotir shoulders. You have no further interest .in the matter. Probably tbe country was not as new as you expected. Purchase a large country house in Scotland and a town house in London and go in for society. (X.B.���Tbis recipe is quite genuine, though it can be varied according to taste and tbe nature of the government. It will be noticed that it depends on guaranteed bonds for its entire success. If these, are not forthcoming, tbe dough which is tbe biteis of the whole dish, will not risel. THE GENERAL OUTCOME That is the real art of railway construction. It is simply carelessness on tbe part of the contractor if any subcontractor not immediately connected with the original contractor or company .makes money. The sub-contractor who is not in the inner circle usually finds be owes money to the contractor from whom he has to buy everything. Part of his contract is the purchasing of supplies through thc contractor. Eggs, meat, everything down to matches must be bought from tbe contractor's store, which usually charges ten per cent, for handling and at least another ten per cent, on the invoiced price. Heaven, the contractor and bis friend the wholesaler, alone know bow much profit the invoice price may really signify. In tbis manner, if you cannot work out the cost of construction on any portions of the line you choose at any price you choose, you better go out of the contracting business. The whole art of contracting is to shift all expense on to tbe shoal- - '���'^���, TWO SATURDAY CHINOOK SATURDAY, APRIL 8, 1916 frKjJjSS^S^SatSiSSS!

My dear young friends, ��� I have been asked to deliver to you a sborl talk on Shakespeare, who died on April 23, St. Georges Day,-, three hundred years ago, and 1 think when we remember the struggle that is now going on in Europe and which is being acutely felt here and indeed iu every part of the world, the struggle for freedom against tyranny, it is the patriotism of Slutkespcarc tllat comes uppermost in our minds. For, as another great poet of our race, William Wordsworth, has said: "Wc must bc free or die, Who speak the tongue that Shakespeare spake." For tbe whole of Shakespeare's work breathes a love of freedom; a patriotism in its best and greatest sense. We must remember that in thc time iu which most of bis plays were written, England and Scotland bad not become one nation. Yet he speaks with fairness and respect of thc valor of Douglas thc Scotsman, as be docs of Hotspur thc Englishman in Henry IV. And in that most amusing scene where Hotspur and Glen- dower quarrel over the division of England���to bc made when they get it, which they never do���we may laugh at the railing wit of tbe Englishman, but wc admire thc dignity of the Welshman. And King Henry V. says to Fluelleh, "I am Welsh, you know, good countryman," whereupon that courageous, hot-tempered soldier answers, "All tbe water in the Wye cannot wash your majesty's Welsh I blood out of your body." For King Henry was Prince of Wales, you know, before he was King of England. And Shakespeare makes less of the victories over the gallant gentlemen of France than bc rejoices in their being done with, so tllat English and French may receive each other as fellow countrymen. Shakespeare's patriotism is of thc truest and purest. On occasion be shows us that it is a great and noble thing to die for one's country. Rut 1 think that what we learn more often from him that it is a greater and nobler thing to live for her: which is really remarkable, because he lived in an age when the trade of a soldier was estimated much higher than it is now; indeed, it was considered thc only profession that a man of gentle birth could follow. War with us now is a terrible and stern necessity. So while tbe boys among you will, when you grow up. no doubt, be ready to fight if your country needs you, you niay never be obliged to. Hut you will all, both boys and git Is, have duties to discharge as citizens, and you can show your patriotism in years of. heroicc life even if you never have the chance lo do so in a moment of hemic death. Shakespeare could allow for the high spirits of youngsters; indeed, judged by our modern ideas. be might bc supposed to have allowed too much, You remember that most laughable slorv of I'riuce Hal and FAITH and WORKS The law forbids the sale of liquor and cigarettes to minors, but it does not restrain newspapers from going into respectable homes and soliciting thc patronage of tbe boys and girls with flaring and alluring advertisements! Careful firesides must rely, therefore, upon newspapers that voluntarily banish liquor and cigarettes, those great enemies of youthful strength and purity, from their columns. In the campaign for saloonless slate it is vital that the forces of temperance cast the entire weight of their influence against the wets. Their subscription order for a newspaper is a vote for or against liquor, according as,the advertising columns of that newspaper are for or against liquor. The Saturday Chinook is against the selling and distributing of liquor and cigarettes to minors through its advertising columns. For true temperance should begin at home and with the Home Newspaper.

The Saturday Chinook I'oins, and Imw they attacked Jack halstaff and bis company in the dark, afterwards drawing him Oil to say he had fought with more than fifty instead of two. It was rough and somewhat lawless joking, but people in those days were full of high spirits and Prince Hal often behaved like an overgrown boy. Yet Shakespeare 4pqw4nui: remind us that bc is only trifling for a time; that he allows these escapades to obscure the better part of himself as the clouds do the. sun but for a little while. Better still bc proves it; he throws aside his follies while Falstaff, who has become old in them, shows himself a coward when put to the test. And again towards the end of thc play, Shakespeare has reminded us how much there is to be done for one's country and that wc^must not give too much time to sport, good as it is in its place, lie has made the gallant Hotspur give us this advice: "O gentlemen the time of life is short, To spend that shortness basely were too long, If life did ride upon a dial's point Still ending at the arrival of an hour.' So you, boys and girls, remember: with all tbe other boys and girls in this! grcat nation of ours from the Falkland Islands to Baffin's Bay, in Australasia and South Africa, and in thc Fiji Islands even, as Mr. Kipling says: "To the last least lump of coral, that none may stand outside," remember, that the future of this grcat empire is in your keeping. It is going to be what you (and these others) make it. Never in the history of tbe world has there been such a glorious, such a tremendous task laid upon the shoulders of one generation. And if you fail of this grcat trust that bas fallen to your lot, ah I who shall say what may happen. For though the ending of tbis war will place us���the English-speaking people of the world���in a position of power that no sane man has ever thought of one nation possessing (you sec, 1 am not taking tbe German emperor into consideration), we cannot maintain that position without effort. In humility; in service to others; in work unceasing for tbe world's good��� in honor must we maintain it, not in overbearing, for as Hamlet says: "Rightly to be great Is not to stir without great argument, But greatly to find quarrel in a straw When honor's at tbe stake," remembering what is meant by honor: which does not consist in sensitive vanity concerning our own dignity, but that honor which will not allow us to stand idly by and see a small nation cruelly entreated or a treaty torn up because ils terms have become inconvenient. I will not urge you to be courageous: 1 know you will be that; but I will utter a warning that you take care to bc watchful and temperate and just. For we can go to Hamlet again and find bow be speaks of self-indulgence of bis countryman us "A custom More honored in the breach than tbe observance, This revel ll takes from our achievements The pith and marrow of. our attri- 1 bute." is for acting in the way it has done: reasons of which we know nothing. In any ease, remember thai a true patriot can always respect the patriotism of another. Never suppose tllat you can show respect for lhe Bri tish flag by showing disrespect for any other flag, particularly for the flag of neutral nations and still more particularly fo that of a nation speaking our own,.speech and governed by laws ;iliiiTur same as and derived from olir,own. W'e are living, and shall cotitinJULto live, close neighbors with one hundred millions of Americans; for one hundred years we have been at peace with them. Part of your duty towards the Empire is to make that peace a lasting one. With the Empire and America determined for peace, who shall dare to break it. There is no bitterer feeling than that which rises in tbe heart at bearing one's country insulted and being unable to resent it. Let ns take care not to rouse that feeling iu the hearts of those living among us. And the easiest way to avoid doing injustice to others, is to do our own work honestly and] truly; even Shakespeare never said anything more true than "To thine own self be true, And it must follow as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man." CORRESPONDENCE 111 ���HI And (to bc fair with our enemy and ourselves) it is true that we had as a nation fallen into a carelessness and luxury that generally precedes disaster. Many years ago, when I was but little older than you who are now here, -a very wise old Frenchman named Ernest Renan, in speaking to some students, regretted that he could not hope to sec tbe things that they would live to sec. And you, my young friends here, will live to see and take part in many great and wonderful things after my time: remember that you be worthy of them. Now, I have left one important thing to the last. Part of the great English-speaking people: those who live south of the border line, are taking no active part in the fearful struggle that is going on today. But they are, very nearly all of them, our friends and sympathizers, thousands of them have enlisted in tbe Allied armies and are fighting for our cause. Now I want you, if you forget everything else I have said, to remember that Americans are just as patriotic as wc are and have just as much respect for their flag. Their government has not actually engaged in this war but that government no doubt has rea- To the Editor of thc SATURDAY CHINOOK: Re STATE COMPENSATION INSURANCE I have just returned from Victoria where, at the invitation of Premier Bowser, I had the honor of addressing the executive council of tbe government protesting against the state fund feature of the Workmen's Compensation Bill, which is now under consideration. The following facts were pointed out:��� 1. That practically all employers wanted insurance in stock insurance companies because under that plan they knew what the insurance would cost them and all they bad to do was to pay the premium and be done with it. Tlie state fund would be purely assessmentism ��� the Government could at any time levy assessments and the employers would never know what their outstanding liabilities were. This state plan was merely pseudo-insurance. For instance, in West Virginia, tbe heavy mibe losses made the fund bankrupt, The state made another assessment on the mine owners. Even this assessment was not sufficient and they made another assessment and after that another assessment until these assessments became so onerous and burdensome that the mine owners rose in arms and positively refused to pay any more. The state officials then said that they would allow them to withdraw from the fund if they paid all the losses which were outstanding, if they contributed an extra amount to meet the additional catastrophe hazard, if they also contributed another amount to meet tbe administration expenses ami} in addition put up-another amount as a reserve. In other words, Ibis plan would be like the proverbial church fair��� it would cost nothing to get in but all you have to get out. 2. It was also pointed out that under the state plan there could not be any differentiation iu regard tu the individual hazard in each plant. For instance, the man who operated his saw mill in an efficient way, employing the best class of foremen and buying all the latest machinery with the most up-to-date protective devices to prevent thc occurrence ' of accident, would have to contribute exactly the same assessments as thc negligent employer who had old machinery and did not care whether accidents happened or not. 3. It was also pointed out that under the state plan there would be an impossible situation created during a period of depression. The Rill provides a life long pension for each widow and for every man who is permanently incapacitated. These years a very large amount of money would have to be paid out in pensions. Bear in mind that each trade has to -lay these pensions separately. When a period of depression occurs the payrolls are very small, but still these pensioners have to be paid under this government plan. Who will pay them? The trouble with these state funds is that they start charging a small as sessment and this assessment grows tbis state plan would give rise to the creation of a large number of illegitimate limited liability companies with no assets, so tliat wile nanv large assessments were made these illegitimate joint slock companies would imply wind up and thus escape these assessments. The burden would then fall on Ihe responsible concerns who would have to make up tbe deficiency. 5. 11 was also pointed out that ntrior the stale plan an employer could never know what bis outstanding liabilities were. At any moment there might be a catastrophe in some other plant anil be would have to pay a huge assessment to meet the losses casioncd by ibis catastrophe. The greatest danger is the insiduous, lurking danger. It is always hovering around like Banquo's ghost. The result is that all these firms employing labor will be faced with this unknown liability for which they could not possibly provide any reserve, and tbe banks will, as a consequence, be chary of giving them financial accommodations. An unknown and incalculable danger of tbis description is enough to impair the financial credit of any institution. 6. If carried to its logical conclusion tbis invasion of private rights on the part of tbe government would ultimately undermine, if not destroy altogether, not only the insurance business, but private enterprise of all kinds. It would throttle new industries and scare away from the province the additional capital that is so imperatively required to develop the resources that arc lying at our very doors. 7. It was also pointed out that I state insurance would bc a very hazardous experiment. Wherever it had been tried it bad failed miserably but whilst the experiment had been going ou it had created chaos a"nd demoralization. The Government solicitor in his reply stated that tbe only firm or company which bad appeared before thc Commission in Vancouver to protest against tbis state fund was the Dunsmuir Collieries. From that fact he very erroneously argued that all the other employers of labor in the province must bc in favor of it. We arc to submit another petition to the Government and we should like to be able to enclose letters from all tbe representative institutions giving their opinion on tbis matter. It would, therefore, please me very much if you would bc kind enough, at your earliest convenience, to let me have an expression of your views. You can quite understand that a radical departure o( this nature is of limitless importance to your esteemed firm and to the welfare of the province, and concerted action is urgently needed if the corporate interests of British Columbia are not to be made to suffer irremediably.

A little carbonate when washing dishes and glasses gives them a beautiful gloss. A cloth dipped in dry carbonate polishes windows, lamp glasses, etc. Carbonate takes away burnt and discolored marks from enamel ware, tin and metal. When stung by bees or wasps, a little carbonate rubbed into the sting prevents inflammation. A small quantity of carbonate a- mongst hot water is very beneficial in cases of flatulence, heartburn, and indigestion. If added a little lemon juice and sugar, it makes a most palatable drink. * * * A HANDY TABLE A table of weights and measures for kitchen use is a very great help, and often a time-saver, too, 4 large cupfuls liquid equal 1 quart. 2 large cupftlls liquid equal 1 pint. 4 teacupfuls flour equal I Ib. 3 cupfuls oatmeal equal 1 lb. 2 cupfuls granulated sugar equal 1 lb. 1 teas] oonl'ul butter equals 1 oz. 1 heaped tablespoonful sugar equals 1 OZ. 2 tablespoonfuls of flour equal 1 oz. 2 tablespoonfuls coffee .equal 1 oz. 2 teaspoonfllls liquid equal 1 dessert-spoonful. 2 dessertspoonfuls equal 1 table- spoonful. 6 tablespoonfuls equal 1 teacupful.

Instructions for filling that particular type of window-box can be found in any book on gardening, and for the matter of that, in tbe columns of many daily papers. I always like a window-box to be some reflection of the creative force as exercised by the men and women who live behind the windows which look out upon the window boxes, To fill the boxes with red, white and blue flowers is an effect easily achieved, but under thc present conditions I am afraid the owners of patriotic window-boxes will have a difficult task to represent the colors of all the Allies' flags. A window-box should represent to me a miniature garden, and I ain not sure that I would not have tbe prettiest side facing towards the room itself, though the outside should be almost as pretty, for well-filled window-boxes give immense pleasure to passers-by, and arc often a silent injunction to them to "Go and do thou likewise."

"Did you ever have a pony of your own, Grandma," asked Jimmie. "Yes, indeed, I did," said Grandma, "and a very clever pony be was, too. When I was a little girl father used to drive an old gray horse called Nell.]"! We children loved Nell for she was very gentle, and when we found a little colt in Nell's stall one morning you may be sure we were very happy. He was a dear little fellow, just as black as could be, with one white star just above his eyes and we children called him Nigger. "Now Xigger was a wonderful colt for lie was fond of doing tricks. I have often thought since that he could have been trained to make a fine circus horse for he found great i delight in doing all kinds of funny things. "1 remember one day the hired man ' was mending a fence and Nigger came Up behind him and grabbed tlie man's hat iu liis teeth ami away he ran t ! the other end of the pasture. My, j how ve children laughed. Milo . the I hired man, ran aftri* Nigger, but he dodged around just like you children j do when playing tag. "Mike had quite a lime getting his hat and Xigger seemed so proud as if he thought himself very clever indeed. "( im day Xigger came int" tbe yard where the clothes were hanging on the line and what do you suppose he did. He pulled every peg out of lhe clothes and lei them drop down in the dirt. Mother came out of thc kitchen door just as Nigger was taking the last pegs out or no one would have known who did it Por no one would dream of a pony doing things like that. After wc took care Nigger never got in the yard again." Successful and won the clothe- brush, which was offered as second prize. Mr. E.
