Taps It was after dark when Dabs came Into the apartment. His eyes were shining and there was a look of gallant youth to him that touched Judy's heart "Kiss your old parent, Jude!" he cried, and then, on another note, "Where's Honey?" "In her room with the door locked!" "I'm going to tho war," ho said sheepishly. "To the war? But, Dabs, how can you?" "Think I'm so ancient and decrepit that they won't take me? That's where you're wrong!" "But—but you can't be a soldier!" Judy cried. "You don't know anything about It." "I'm not going to be a soldier! I'm going over with the Y.M.C.A." At that Judy sat down with a sudden and an.a7.tng feeling of faint- ness. Dabs going to war? Dabs going over to be a target for the guns ? Gentle, kindly Babs! Her throat began to acho, her eyes to smart. "Look here, Jude. aren't you glad ?" Thero was paine-i bewilderment ln his cry. She mustn't spoil this moment for him! After all lt was his great moment ! But what of Honey ? Her mind flew to Honey! Cruel of Dabs to go away with no thought of Hon- . >■! She looked at him almost angrily. What n gallant but Inconsiderate gesture this waa of his!

"Will you talk to Honey about It? She won't listen to me!" "I'll do my best." "Tell her tltori Isn't any danger." "Will there be danger, Dabs?" '"I don't think so. Why should there be?" "Wi II, all war is dangerous, Isn't it?" "I suppose so, but what does that matter? I've found my place, my reason. And I'm happy!" And happy he truly looked, Judy hadn't the heart to dim ono moment of his pleasure. "I'm proud of you. Dabs!" she cried, over a sinking heart. And she went in to see Honey and try to coax her to support Dabs In his new move. And now events, things, days seemed to all come rushing together. They crashed upon Judy like the swift claps of thunder In a storm. Packing for Dabs. Going daily to the benefit. Tommy and Cecily strolling away together time after time and the rise of her heart at the sight of them. And the fall of her heart at the unchanging light in Tommy's eyes when he looked at her. Dancing with Tommy. Consoling Honey. And then, suddenly, it was over! The benefit closed in a blare of music, a whirl of color. And looking up Judy found Dabs standing at her window. "What is it, Dabs?" she cried at sight of his face. "Thought I'd come over and meet you and walk home with you. That is—If you want me to. Have you any other plans?" "Of cqurse not!" she told him, but pressed on. "What ia it, Dabs? You have something to tell ine, haven't you?" "I'm leaving tomorrow." "Oh, Dabs!" Just that. She couldn't speak for a moment. The lights whirled dizzily about hcr and the sound of music came to her in wavering bursts. She turned to finish her packing - ly. War was dreadful! Horrible!

It recommended to the 1927 board that the four school buildings and their contents' should be covered with $200,000 of Insurance through six or a8 few policies as possible. It was faced with the problem of handling this large amount of Insurance through 47 different policies many of them falling duo for renewal premiums at most Inopportune times; and also to distribute its business equally among long local Insurance agents. There was a further complication ln that some school board members favored nonboard Insurance companies, whllo others favored companies within the board of underwriters. Large Cut To cut down the existing 47 policies to six or thereabouts it order- .1 < n collation of all policies on the l>i3t Trail school on January 14 and the recovering ot the building and furnishings with a single policy for -fij.OOO placed with a Canadian or a Urltijh company; and it recommended a similar procedure In respect of the policl?.*! carried on the other schools to the Incoming sehool board. Insurance up to SO per cent of the value of the buildings, and to the full value of furnishings was advocated. In tlie Oftt*l nl' lhe Kast Trail school ii unouted to about $22,500 for the building and $2500 for the furnishings, Divltts BosIjism To cquallie the patronage among the six local insurance agents it favored awarding $33,000 worth of contracts to (ach, with, roughly, two-thirds of the loiiil $2t)0,0»0 wnrtli going to agents handling board company contracts and one-third going to the two agents liundlhiK non-board company contracts conclusively. ■Mt Trail school, Technical high school and the Tadanac school will ht insured with non-board companies. Central school will be covered, probably with several policies, by contracts with board companies, Tho plnn of meeting premiums as they become due In bulk by providing for them in the third year estimates was favored ntlhur thun the plan of steadily spreading the cost over a period. The life of the OOBtfO-Otl usually taken out is three years. CImim Ib New Gym With the opening of the. new school gymnasium in tin* lias, -ment of the Central school addition, the board decided that Jill phjntdftl education classes will be held there instead of at the Memorial hall. The secretary will notify the Memorial hall association. This decii-ion solves a problem for the board. There have been complaints th.tt stu-l.'Tits, particularly older ones of both sexes, make a rendezvous of the Memorial hall aft. r their gym class hours, and loiter there wilh- "iM ime rvisimi frnm the school board or tho Memorial hall association. The school board had control of the Memorial hall gym and other rooms thero until 6 o'clock each school day, and therefore felt responsible for what was regarded as a growing nuisance up to that hour. Now, however, the school board will havo no responsibility there, and will be able easily to prevent any loitering about tho school gymnasium. To Play Badminton rermisslon was given to the teaching staff of the school to use the new school gymnasium for badminton courts. The permission was contingent on participation being restricted exclusively to the teaching staff and to proper preference being given to the prior claims of school children. A school basketball league is to be formed shortly and play will probably take place after school hourB. The board declined to permit the Kast Trail school to be used on Sundays for a Sunday school. Application was made by a local teacher to use the school on the ground that Httle children had a long way to travel to Sunday school west of the river. The board, while sympathetic to the noeds not only of ono denomination but to all who might desire to use the building for such purposes, declined regretfully to set a precedent that might involve them In serious difficulties. It decided to keep the school for school purposes only. SOCIAL BRIEFS FROM TRAIL AND TADANAC This column Is conducted by Mrs. Thomas Weston of Trail.

Mr. Sheffield's ad-Mess, winN along educational lines and being rather deep for young inimls. mn tained humorous sallies and wa;- greatly appreciated by the ntmbtn of the club. Mr. Sheffield opened his address with hfs version of the Garden of Eden legend. Adam .mil Kvo Were Lucky He said thut Adam and Bv« tttrt not to be entirely blamed for their mistake as it was but natural as they were left with practically nothing to spend their time on and when temptation came their way they seized on it as a way out of their dilemma. He said the picture of the two being driven from the garden, in his mind, wus more thai Of t deliverance than a tragedy bWMai it put them on their own Initiative. He depicted Adam and Kve us stepping out, not in the m.il.'ii fft) but to fend for themselves Mr Sheffield said that the problems, ;ind difficulti'-s gn0OU0ttt*4 in everyday lif- were purposely there to be overcome. Regarding old age, he said ilia! one was old only when the future held n-*lliii)K in **'"i <• tO exelt*- ihe Interest, and th.it youth looki d Ofl each day as an adventure. "Life has two aspects," llN Mr. Sheffield, "that of growing, which might be termed tbe Inner one, and the fact that it l"uds somewhere, the outer one."

Consider one or two of the main points tn the case of each city. Nelson in the past year provided Itself with a $100,000 water supply. which lt financed from the last four | .surpluses, and cut both taxes and light rates. In addition, It is within two years of owning Its $250,000 Bonnington power plant free of debt, Fernie in two years has surfaced 67 blocks of streets, advanced Its concrete walk program, and readjusted Its sinking fund adva.iia- g-eously.

Grand Forks has a cash surplus uf $10,000 after granting tax reductions amounting to 25 per cent ln the Igat two years, and Is now planning a civic power plant and a mile of paving.

FORMER PRINCESS AND PRINCE Please do not think me conceltad If I tell you that I am the most beau, if ul and stately fir tree in the neighborhood. I am one of many trees In a large tourist park, where I frequently hear paselng tourists make remarks about me to thla effect: "Is It not the most beautiful tree you ever saw?" "It must be very old, for see how tall lt la; and what a beautiful dark green ita branches are! My story might have been quite different, however, in fact, I might not have had a -story at all, Of lt were not for this self-same beauty I have been remarking about. Let me tell you how my life was spared, It was the Christmas season when I was young In years. Every dayboys and girls, sometimes with their fathers and mothers trooped Into the woods with axes and sleds. I was rnthor secluded, a li lie distance from my companions, Many trees not far from me were felled and drawn away—Where? At that time I was a conceited and selfish tree. I thought not of my comrades' fate, but only of my own safety, and 1 trembled to think of what might happen to me—Then one day it did happen! A couple of beautiful children accompanied by their father and mother stopped In front of me. "What a beauty!" breuthed the father. "And not too large for us." "Perfect," said mother, The children said nothing, Just stood and clasped their hands i*n admiration, uttering a long drawn "Oh!" I waa so frightened that my needles trembled, and the snow fell from my branches like a beaustful silver veil, shining in the sun. Then father reached for the axe and swung it back; but fortunately for me, the smallest child burst into tears. The * others turned In surprise and the little one sobbed, "Daddy, daddy, don't tut the pXty twee, please, tause 'en no one but us can love it." "Why, dtar," said daddy. "Don't you want to have a lovely Christmas tree?" "Ye-e-s.—but—" "Very well, daddy," said mother. 1 "We will not cut the tree. I have j an idea. We live -so near—In the dawn of Christmas morning you and j I will d« curate the iiee and put on] the presents. Then after their brenk- fast the children can dress warmly and run ahead to find the tree, which they will roOOffofct by the pretty lighted candles." The father still with the ax ln his hand, seemed doubtful, but the dear lady Bat on a log and began singing snatches of an old song, something, "Woodman, spare the. tree." The father threw down his ax and turned around saying, "W'11 I certainly cannot resist that!" and Joined lu the song. To make a long story short, I had a wonderful Christmas, and the other trees enjoyed watching. Strings ol popcorn and some apples were left on my branches, and nil the birds from blue Jay to snow bird came to the feast. How proud I felt ta bg ■ Christmas benefactor! Shortly after the family WI nt thread, and as I grew In IHMM and was much admired 1 often thought of the little girl who loved mc and wanted everyone else to do so. too. ii the beautiful summer days when tourists throng the park md zephyrs murmur through my blanches. I dream that a dear lady comes leaning OO the arm of her husband or perhaps of her eldest son, and exclaims ln rapture, "Oh, yes. this ts the very tree! I remember the exuet spot; how grand It is and how proud I am that my childish im- Ise saved the life of such a beautiful tree!" Mrs, William B.

J That Bogey of Ill-health Goblins, demons, dragons, giants, and most ill-health- bogeys, all of them. Some .Most only in the imagination. But others appear to have more substance. Among these, the bogey of ill-health is perhaps the most formidable to those Who have reached middle age. However, the bogey of ill- health has no power to terrify the man who is wise enough to ' take simple precautions. Prac- ' tically all diseases enter through the blood. Keep the • blood-stream pure and virile, and you've laid the very best foundation for good health. The way to keep the blood pure is to adopt the Kruschen • habit — the habit of the little "daily dimeful." Kruschen Salts is a peculiar blend of six different salts, and each of these benefits the system in a different way. Net only do they remove all ths poisonous waste matter that has been clogging the body; they also help the kidneys; they prevent excess of uric add (ths prime cause of rheumatism, gout and many other ills); they purify th* blood; and they act as a reviving, invigorating tonic to th* whol* system. Begin to-morrow taking tha llttls pinch of Kruschen in your breakfast cup of coffee or tea — the dose is only "as much as will cover a 10- cent piece" and you cant taste it— and see for yourself what Kruschen does. Keep up the habit of "the little daily dimeful"; and in a short time you'll feel so full of life and cheery vigour that you'll wonder how you could ever have been frightened by the bogey of ill-health.

Is Dead XTjettcr No. 2 To the Editor of The Daily Newt* Sir—The next phase of the beaver question that I wtah to discuss is the conflict between beavers' work and human improvements. This subject Is one In which my feelings are strongly on the side of the man aa opposed to the beast, and two items I have noticed recently In The Daily News have aroused my ire and are really responsible for this letter. The first was printed some months ago and was the statement, reported to be made by a prominent member of the Nelson board of trade at a meeting when this question of beaver damage to settlers was under discussion, that "There was none of that tn British Columbia." The second item was printed only a week or two ago and was a quotation from a letter from Mr. Jackson of the game board, In which he declared that the farmers' protests and appeals for permits to destroy beavers which were flooding their property "often made him extremely ir- fltated." I strongly condemn this Ignorant and unsympathetic attitude on the part of men who should know better. It Is truo that on account of our generally oblique topography, not every farm is subject to beaver flood- ng. but the number Is greater than one would suppose, 1 can name you i dozen or more settlers in the EMMK* er creek and Salmon river valleys alone, who would be $50 to $100 or more better off annually If they were at liberty to make a clean awcep of the beaver on their farms. As this part of the subject appears to be not generally understood, I hnve outlined four statements, the truth of which will, I think, be generally admitted. Four Trutlw First, Not nearly enough hay or pasture land exists ln this district to support the existing live stock, not to mention the live stock that should be kept. Nflond, The b**st and most productive hay and pasture lands are those low lying alluvial areas that can be most easily flooded by beaver dams Third, Beavers rebuild destroyed dams with a persistence that would try the patience of Job, were he unfortunate enough to be alive today and trying to farm in their neigh borhood. Fourth, It Is the farmer's right to decide whether he ahall grow grass and hay un his own property for his cattle. Beavers' SliortconiinLgs But is it not Htrange that anyone should have to argue for the rights of a f-llow human being as against an animal, anyway? The beaver paj"s no ta\es, has nn vot«\ supports no churches, schools or stores, is re- si'i.ti it le fnr most of our mosquito plague, vfelatai whole sections of the Water ad with Impunity, and is In fact, a I nn.M ev. iy thing that is undesirable ln a neiRhbor. And that work Is the keynote of the whole question. No wild animal is a desirable neighbor All must give way before settlement. And It is better so. I suppose there has been more drive) written about the passing of tho buffalo than about nny other animal. Yet the lands they roamed over aro inflni:«ly bitter off today without them. A f'W' in parks as eurlonitlea, of course, hut In our wheat fields and cattle ranches? Oh, no! si lil Have Hight Against Marauder But to return to our beavtr. In my opinion any law that protects any wild iininuil to the Injury of any settler ts unjust. The aettler has the Inherent right, and should hive the legal right, to destroy any animal at any time which Injures nr hus to injure his person, atock or OTOpa, whether IA be deer or bear ■ rehard, mink and weasels In his barnyard, or beavers In hi* BMldoir I was under the Impres sion that our game laws made provision for such cases, and was aaujuBlHl incredulous when several settlers who suffer from beaver flooding c.iinplalned to me of the grrat difficulties they had with the fanio board. I can understand them better now after reading those extracts frbfn Mr: Jackson's letter which you printed recently. It Beams almost Incredible to me that a city man, who cannot even In his bad dreams visualise tbe slavish toll, the sweat, the weariness, tha time and money that the farmer has paid for his few cleared acres, should hare the audacity to say that the farmers' clamor for leave to fight this pest "often makes him extremely Irritated." ' Make Braver Permits Ix>cal These questions of beaver permits should not be handled from Victoria anyway. They »re engineering questions and local questions, and should be handled by the district water -engineer or district public works engineer or, lf departmental difficulties forbid that, by the local government agent. If it be suggested that the farmer who ia injured by beavers should quit farming land, and farm beavers, I would state that there Is plenty of unimproved, nonarable land available for that purpose, and also point to my fourth statement in a preceding paragraph. Fine Animal Ncvertlk-le-ss In spite of all the foregoing, I must ask you to believe that the beaver has no truer frtend In this di.strlct than myself. When he does not interfere with human Improvements, I believe In giving him absolute protection. AU other wild animals are furtive, sly and difficult to find. The beaver may bo found and destroyed to the laRt one by anyone only slightly skilled in wood craft. I believe his presence In the woods Is a distinct advantage to the human race, although I cannot accept the extravagant claims made for him by aome of your correspondents. As a Canadian engineer, I wore, with some pride- for over two years ln England, France and Belgium, hiB bronze image ln my cap badge, and nearly killed a Koyal Engineer sapper who asked me If lt was a mole. I hope at some future time to tell you of Bom*e of the lore about the beaver which I have gathered In a lifetime ln the woods. RUSTICUS. Nelson, B.C., Jan. 2, 1827.
