VICTORIA, Dec. 30 (CP).-Brit- ish Columbia's four primary industries -* forestry, mining, .farming and fishing — created $200,000,000 worth of new wealth during the present year, according to a compilation of provincial government figures. Chiefly due to the decline in world prices for various commodities the province produces, this figure was about 10 per cent below - the 1937 level In actual volume, production, and employment held up well in all industries except lumbering where a bad forest fire season and uncertainty about tariffs and markets caused a small decrease in output the figures showed. Forests remained the largest wealth and payroll producer, however, with production estimated al 872,000,000 against $80,872,000 the previous year. 01 major importance in the lumbering picture was the gain accomplished In Douglas fir shipments to the United Kingdom market. The United Kingdom buying set a new record. The mining industry, ranking second in value, produced an estimated $64,250,000 against $74,475,902 the previous year. The deorease was almost entirely due to lower world prices for lead and zinc. Feature of the mining year was the 20 per cent gain in production of gold which took the lead over all other minerals in value. Agriculture production has been estimated at $47,500,000, compared with $50,024,542 last year. The Oka- nagan apple crop of 5,300,000 boxes is said to be selling well. There is also a good market in the United Kingdom for, processed small fruits. For poultry producers egg prices' were the best in years;''Sheep tellers began to find a market at home for their wool by doing their own washing, carding, spinning and weaving. Cheese production scored new record of nearly 600,000 pounds and apiarists- made large gains to a production ot 1,500,000 pounds. A , larger salmon pack and a bigger catch of halibut helped the fisheries to a production which will, run close to $17,000,000 against $16,155,000 last year, The salmon pack was 1,697,016 cases against 1,509,175 in 1937. The halibut quota, regulated by the international fisheries commission was raised by 2,000,000 pounds and the catch Increased accordingly, VICTORIA, Dec. 80 (CP). - The most important bill, to be debated on the floor ol the house of the }5th Tioii'iSd Older.

Prince known as the "man who knew all," in <Jie Stavlsky scandal which shook France and upset several cabinets five years ago, was found dead on a railroad embankment near Dijon.

WASHING A SHIRT CAUSES DELAY IN PAYOFF ON SWEEP VANCOUVER Dec. 30 (API- Washing a shirt has caused William Bezubiak of reaiote Allison Harbour B.C. off the east coast of Vancouver Island more than three months' delay in collecting a $16,500 sweepstake prize. This is his story as told today in a newspaper legal notice which he inserted: 'To whom it may concern' re the Gold Strand Sweepstake, drawn Oct. 1st, at Paris, France. Ticket number 65384 was sold to Mr. William Bezubiak of Allison Harbour, British Columbia. The selling agent was .notified on October 8th that Mr. William Bezubiak held a winning ticket and the prize was $16,500 Canadian currency. "Mr. Bezuziak was advised to send stub from winning ticket but was unable to do so as the ticket was spoiled when left in a shirt that was laundered. The sweep officials at Paris upon learning this asked Mr. Bezubiak to send them his signature, which he did. "The head of the ticket bureau in Victoria advised Mr. Bezubiak that he would have to go to Paris in order to collect. The bureau officials have arranged sufficient funds for the trip so Mr. Bezubiak is leaving as soon as his naturalization papers and passport are in order.

FRENCH ATTITUDE IS OBSTACLE IN WAY OF PEACE—ROME PRESS ROME, Dec. 30 (AP)—France's unwillingness to have Prime Minister Chamberlain mediate the Italian territorial demands brought a new barrage of fascist attacks today. The attitude of France toward Italy's "natural aspirations", the newspaper II Messaggero said, was today's "greatest obstacle" in the path of European pacification, II Messaggero openly discussed the possibility of a conference similar to the Munich meeting, declared "evidently the spectre of a new four-power conference — because Germany would take part in it- disturbs France's repose."

The agreement signed by Major Matthews assigns all interest in the archives to the seven-man board automatically lifts the 24- hour padlock order imposed by the city council Wednesday, and permits Major Matthews to return to his department until further plans are laid for development.

France cannot risk launching an independent Syria, a government spokesman declared, at the very moment the French need a firm grip on all Mediterranean military and naval bases.

PHOTO EDITOR British Ship Again in Japanese Custody TOKYO Dec. 30 (CP-Havas) - The British freighter Hannah Mol- ler again ran afoul of Japanese maritime authorities today when for the second time in less than a year its officers and crew were taken into custody for alleged violation of the Japanese military secrets protective law. Maritime police at Muloran on the southwestern coast of Hokkaido, said the captain of the freighter, two British mates and 44 Chinese seamen were in custody and being examined for entering an unnamed forbidden Japanese port. The master of the freighter said he entered the banned area to seek refuge from a storm while en route from Mlyagi to Muroran. Early this year the owners of the freighters were fined 1000 yen ($290) because it entered a forbidden zone. MORE ABOUT WEATHER (Continued From Page One) The Coffee creek section of the Nelson-Kaslo road, and the Slocan valley road from Suoth Slocan northward along the course of the Slocan river were the- chief trouble centres. Deep slush was plowed away to minimize interference with car and truck traffic, but the danger of the acutal road surface being penetrated and becoming soft threatened if the mildness should continue. On many sections of the southern scenic highway from Fraser's Landing through Nelson and Trail to Rossland tne snow, between plowing and melting, was completely off the blacktop; and in other sections a thin slush only covered the hard surface. NELWAY ROAD GOOD Between Nelson and Nelway on the international boundary the road was in good condition. It was plowed again Friday by the public works department's bfg truck, and barring a thaw in the vicinity of Apex was likely to remain in good shape. The Harrbp-Procter road 'was opened up Thursday night and the tractor plow crossed to Gray Creek on the main lake ferry Friday morning to open'the road to Craw-, ford Bay. The tractor was scheduled to continue on to Kootenay Bay and Riondel .opening up the road and plowing again on the return trip. This ordinarily is a four-day undertaking., In Nelson the city's snow crew reached 45 men as snow removal continued on a day and night basis. The night crew of laborers was increased. The mild weather helped rather than hindered' the city's, snow clearing program, although the slush was a first degree handicap to pedestrians and vehicles alike. Two extra trucks are in use and all equipment is being used on a 24-hour basis. MORE ABOUT WEARY EUROPE (Continued From Page One) Germany became entangled again with Poland over middle Europe's hapless Jews. The Polish commissioner in the free city of Danzig Erotested against" expulsion from anzig of Jews bearing Polish passports and threatened to drive citizens of the Nazi-dominated city from Poland unless the action was halted. SYRIAN DEMAND Reports of a Syrian demand for immediate independence from France confronted Paris as it sought to put up a strong colonia front to deal with Italy's teritorial aspirations. Meanwhile, in Spain civil war government forces launched a counter-offensive against the centre of insurgent lines in an effort to split two wings of the insurgent offensive aimed at Barcelona government' capital. Insurgent reports said, however, that the advance of Generalissimo Francisco Franco's forces on both the north and south was increasing in intensity. Wang Chlng-Wel, former Chinese government party, came out In favor of peace negotiations with Japan, Wang now a member of the central political council of Kuo- mlntang, stipulated that the negotiations be based on the Dec. 22 terms proclaimed by Japanese Premier Fumlmar Konoye* There was.no indication whether Wang represented any element of the Chinese government. Some far eastern observers were, inclined to consider his action as a bold gesture made on his own initiative.

The fall wheat farmer is also grateful for .the snow as it gives the young grain's none too hardy root structure protection from the cold that invariably manifests itself in January. The prospects of the big spring thaw moisture is also pleasing to the orchar- dists on unirrigated lands, of whom there are quite a number immediately West of the village. The snowfall is not entirely, welcomed by those in charge of dyke repairs on the Reclamation farm and Creston Dyking district, although the depth of it is not yet sufficient to halt even scraper operations. As high water goes there is little to fear. The snow has no body to it, and the long dry fall and early winter has the soil in shape to absorb much of the usual spring runoff.

They increased bill now there Is never a time men it is not present in our popula- yfo.

And it spreads rapidly. ■ Obviously the only thing the airymen can do when the disease |discovered in his herd is to iso- V the infected animals and stop liking them. It Is a very serious lonomic loss, and, naturally, he lid like a method of protecting urtag the last year, perhaps the I greatest advance has been in the announcement that calves can bo vaccinated against the disease and that renders them tree tor life. This, it must be plain is a tremendous advance in prevention. In the treatment of an established case in a human being many new methods have been introduced. At first vaccines using the killed germ were employed with varying success. An improved form ot vaccine is a liver broth filtrate ot a culture of the germ, given hypodermically into the muscle. The preparation is known as Brucellin. Several other vaccine-like products have been used, one of them made from goat serum and another from horse serum. Besides that, the new drug, sulfonamide has been ttought Into use with most encouraging results, Also, there is tbe now familiar form of treatment ot all chronic infections—the heat treatment — Inducing an artificial temperature of 109 or 106 and keening it up for an hour or more. This seems to produce a bodily environment which is uncomfortable to the germ ot un- dulant fever. With all these advances it seems fair to hope that this contagion, which really has produced a most serious condition in America, may bid fair to be routed or at least kept within limits. The comparative promptness with which this result has been achieved is a triumph tor modern methods ot dealing with, epidemics. A hundred years ago all the doctors could have done would have been to sit by and try to stem the tide by palliative measures—all the time working in the dark as to what the nature ot the condition was.

At Your Grocer '«»<__ Nelson Girl Weils White Rocft Man Mr. and Mrs, Thomas Danskin Birrell, whose marriage took place recently at St. Saviour's oro-cathedral, Nelson, Ven. Archdeacon F. H. Graham officiating at the ceremony. Mrs. Birrell was formerly Pauline Elva Emma, only daughter ot Mr, and Mrs. David Wade, Stanley street, Nelson. Good but hearty fare was the thing in colonial days. F. Van Wyck Mason, doing research tor "Three Harbors", came across accounts of banquets and just plain meals that showed our forefathers to be fine trenchermen. We asked Mr. Mason for some recipes typical of the three harbors, Norfolk, Boston and Bermuda, that figure in his novel LIKES ITS HAMS Norfolk, the home of fine sea food, Including delectable hot buttered shrimps, likes its ham, not to mention tie Princess Anne turkeys for which this section Is famous. First 'get-your-Ham and cook it right. Then, after you've enjoyed it sliced, make some grand dishes with it. HAM FRITTERS- Ham fritters call for one cup finely ground ham, one cup flour, one teaspoon baking powder, one tablespoon .chopped parley, one egg, cup milk salt, pepper, liitie onion juice and frying fat. Add parsley to ground ham. Make batter with egg, milk, baking powder and flour. Add ham, stir till well mixed, drop spoonfuls in hot fat Serve hot, with gravy or sauce if desired. WEDDING CAKE Anna Coffin's second-day wedding cake is the second recipe from Mr. Mason. Its quaint name betrays its new England flavor. It is rich fare, for it requires ten eggs, three pints milk, one-half pound each butter and sugar, 11 ounces of crackers and one pound boiled raisins. Pour into a buttered baking dish and bake about one and one-quarter hours. Serve with a hard or liquid sweet sauce. QUAHAUG PIE Quahaug pie will delight«those who love clams. It calls for a quart of quahaugs, six large potatoes, sliced thin, four onions, sliced thin, seasoned with a little pepper and salt. Take one quart flour two teaspoons baking powder one-half cup lard, one tablespoon salt and mix with water for pie crust. Grease sides of deep pan and line with crust rolled thin. Fill with quahaugs, onions, seasoning; add a' little water Put over a crust and bake. CAS8AVA PIE Cassava pie is Bermuda's contribution, a dish without which no Bermudian Christmas is complete. Cassava is now imported here, and anyone who has enjoyed cassava pie, in the delectable islands Can now have it here. This grand dish, which is better than even, .the .best .chicken pie, calls for two pounds cassava, four pounds sugar, one and one-quarter pounds 'butter, 12 eggs, two nutmegs, three tablespoons salt, one chicken or fowl, two pounds fresh pork, one pound salt pork, dust of flour, teaspoon baking powder, dust of pepper. Scrape, wash and.grate the roots of cassava. Squeeze out a little of the starch of the plant, which is tapioca plant, and therefore starchy. Into the grated cassava put the sugar, butter, beaten eggs, and seasonings. Fricasse the dissected fowl ana pork. Put a thick layer of the cassava mixture Into a deep baking pan and press it well round the sides. Into this' put the fowl and pork with as. much ot the gravy as the dish will hold. COver the top with a thick layer of cassava Bake in a moderate oven for six or more hour*. Baste with gravy from the chicken. It's a good dish for a lorge company when something out of the ordinary is the order ot the day. DURITY FLOUR MAKES BETTER BREAD foods containing iron."

Miss Chatiield: Here's one young wife who is working to stay in love with her husband. Alter three years I can still say I am in love; but I'm beginning to fret over some things. He makes more than average salary and can afford to dress, well but doesn't I look at other men his age, see them spruced up like fashion plates and think how nice it would be if I might be proud of my husband. I haven't been tactless and told him this but I have said tbat such and such a color would be becoming and that a man advertised his success by being well dressed and that it was economy for a business man to buy good clothes and take -pains with is appearance. Does he take those hints? He does not. He wears old suits, shirts, ties and socks that scream at one another and his hats are a disgrace to a gentleman. Maybe this sounds silly for a girl to fall out of love ■with her husband because he suffers by comparison with other men but sometimes these things happen before you know it and I want to forestall its happening to me. Young Wife. Answer; Sister, it's yourself you will have to work on, not your husband il you keep love from flying out of the window. There was a time when you didn't fret over his sartorial crimes a time when you thought-his carelessness about his clothes was cute, a time when you looked at other men who wete spruced up like fashion plates and if they registered at all, you thought them sissies by comparison with your boy friend who had his mind on more Important matters. Most men are born knowing (every married man is frequently reminded) that it's much easier for a woman to love a clean man in clean clothes, hair cut and face shaven than it Is to love one not so clean. But when a gal marries one that won't conform to accepted standards she has to skip it and think ot more pleasant subjects. I know a fastidious woman married to a man whose manners would grace a pig sty. He flips his soup and spills it on his vest. He fills Ills mouth with beaten biscuit and then talks, sending out showers of flakes across the table. You can always see shirt between his vest and trousers and rolls of socks between trousers and shoes and when he takes off his shoes as he does when be comes home in the evening, he dons a pair of slippers that look like a piece of cow hide cut out from the cow and twisted to cover his feet. She laughs merrily at all these idiocitories, as she calls them, and diverts outsiders from them by bragging on him for being the best husband in the world. Love can't fly out of her window. She's chinked the cracks. CAROLINE CHATFIELD New Year... Are You Setting AUNT HET By SOBERT (JUILLEN "Our town Is like all the world. Each bunch o' relatives fight tooth and nail among themselves, but they all stick together when one has trouble- with an outsider." For Your Child! By GARRY C. MYERS, Ph.D. We may not have all the money we should like to have. We may not enjoy the conveniences we might wish. Nevertheless, our riches don't consist ot the abundance ot things we posses. Our health, our habits, our emotions that are harnessed, our family, and our friends make up the big part of our wealth. Now, as we parents enter the New Year, let us take stock of ourselves. Let us ask ourselves such questions as those that follow; Am I physically fit? Am I as nearly fit as I can make myself? Am I doing all I can to develop and keep my health? Do I get enough sleep? Do I relax when I have the oppor- tunlty? Do I have poise? How well do I master my emotions? Can I keep ealm. at trying, times? Am I self-contrplled and patient? Do I allow myself to be disturbed by normal noises of the baby and growing child? Do I talk loud? Is my voice high and squeaky? When others in the family become vexed and excited and speak in loud, shrill tones, am I gentle and serene? Is my voice soft and quiet then? ■ GOOD MANNERS? Do-1 exercise good manners toward my children and other members of the family? Am I as courteous to them as I would have them be to me? Have I the courage to confess my sins against my loved ones and to ask them forgiveness when I know that I have done them wrong? Do I vainly hurt the feelings of my children? Do I ever laugh at their blunderings or resort to sname and ridicule as- punishment? Can I close my eyes to the small and unimportant errors in my loved ones? How prone am I to scold and nag? Am I miserly or generous with worthy praise? Do I ever rebuke or punish my child just to make myself feel better? How grownup am I in relation to my children? Do I do childish things toward them? Do I expect too much of them in terms of grown-up judgments and conventions? IMAGINATION ALIVE? How good is my Imagination? Can I enter with the little child into his lahd of make-believe, walk with his fairies and,talk with them? Am I able, as a rule, to put myself, in my imagination, in the place of my spouse, or child, see a little as he sees, feel a little as he feels and understand -a little as he understands? How well have I cultivated good habits in my children? How well have I helped them grow in self- reliance and independence? How consistent and dependable am I? How well do I. hold myself to the standards which I set for my child? Have I earned,his genuine affection and esteem? Am I fit to be loved and Imitated? How well do I cooperate with.the other parent? How companionable are we with each other? Would you like to know how one child psychologist prays? Then write me In care of this paper, enclosing a self-addressed envelope with a three-cent stamp on it, and let me send you a free copy of the prayer I have written for parents.

When, you wear the gay clothes in magenta and the pleasant riot ot purple, red, green or such combinations, you will be safe in using a rich, deep purple red makeup that is said to go well with everything. Sun-fairieige is the lovely tone we associate witb the fashionable skin tones — a warm pink beige that will be seen In the first spring shoes and also later in the summer. This powder and foundation is lovely when in contrast with bright colors, effective for brunettes, extremely flattering to blondes. The eye makeup for these new spring cosmetics will be blue and violet, but naturally one will have to use the darker mascara. The violet is smart with all shades of pink and the blue will be effective with the brilliant cyclamen, The little powder-colored shoes bags and stockings will apepar first at the winter resorts and we will find them used for the early summer in the north. Smart girls have known about matching the hose and makeup for some time but until now there was no attempt to include the accessories. Even a suggestion will sometimes be enough to complete the harmony in tne whole ensemble. It may be a large chiffon handkerchief In the sun- beige or the accent of any makeup on the face. NOT SO MUCH CONFETTI THIS NEW YEAR'S EVE NEW YORK, Dec. 30 (AP)-New Year's Eve all over the United States will be the same old story— a cacophony of Flat Foot Floozie ■and Auld Lang Syne; a crazy mixture of revelry and reverie—with here and there a little departure from the familiar pattern. Baltimore sent in a report that it would be a good New Year's Eve for the' domestic makers of favors, but said confetti sales were unusually slow, authoritative opinion holding that confetti "gets into drinks, gets down womeivs necks, starts fights." If you have a mink coat, you'll want it anyway; if you haven't, chinchiilette Is a stunning, inexpensive until-then. It's made up in the model sketched in an almost full- length wrap that you'll feel comfortable wearing day and night Generously swagger, the back falls softly in folds to contrast with the flat front. The upright collar stands by itself, and the shoplifter sleeves are muff-wide when you hold your own hands. The mottled gray markings of the fur, chinchilla-dyed coney, are beautiful, even it they didn't grow that way. It would be lovely with black or your brightest dresses. Serial Story ... ROMANCE INC. By OREN ARNOLD CHAPTER 36 The professor least likely to attract attention at the opening of college this fall unquestionably would have been Thornton Holgate. Then to, he was the man ledst likely to have stirred Sara Sue's heart To begin with, it was highly unlikely that she should ever have ■met him at all, socially He had been a retiring! scholarly, even shy sort, who imagined himself to be middle aged, hnd who was eternally concerned with mathematical phenomena. Sara Sue was a widow still bubbling with youth, a girl of infinite charm and animation. Fate must have chuokled a bit at bringing two such unrelated personalities together,- To be sure, the attachment was only half-way. Which only made it the more tragic. Sara Sue, herself, could not have told you why she loved Thornton. Certainly he was not her type. Her husband of five years ago had been'a noisy, blustery athlete, much like her great admirer, Bob Towne, and everybody about the campus was predicting that by November Bob would have no trouble capturing the lovely Sana Sue. It was known, by now, that Dr. Thornton Holgate saw Sara Sue frequently, but no inkling of any romance there had been given. Actually, of course, it was not a romance; it was just a one-sided, now heart-breaking business of a girl loving, a man, a repetition for the nth time' of life's most poignant tragedy—unrequited iove. No, it was worse than unrequited love, It was worse because Sara Sue, loving a man, was pledged to help him win another girl! Given fair and open field, Sara Sue or any other spunky American girt would have challenged her rival to fight. She could have set out to take Thornton away from Peaches Pomeroy, and the world would have applauded the winner. But—Sara Sue's hands were tied. Tied because she loved Thornton so deeply that she would do anything to insure his happiness. And his' happiness, so he had declared, lay in winning Miss Pomeroy. Since he had, seen Peaches a few times of late, he was declaring his yearning for her more often than ever, more vehemently than at first, and all Sara Sue could do was to listen and renew her professional pledge to help* him. SarawSue could not know, of coiirse, 'that a man sometimes will speak vehemently in an effort to convince not only others, but himself as well. Or at least she could not know to apply this to Thornton. She could.not know that Thornton was unconsciously trying to will the happiness that be had first envisioned, but which seemed to be slipping away. Nor know that Thornton himself had really undergone a change of heart, even though unadmitted. The truth is.that Thornton had cooled toward Peaches,;but—can a man drag his pride In the dust? Having sworn his complete loyalty and love for Peaches, and having hired Mrs, Davie' help in winning her, could he confess now that he didn't want the girl after all? No, In fact, he wouldn't even confess that to himself, , ' He told himself (as Sara Sue had earlier Intimated) that he had been Something of a sissy, and if Miss Pomeroy were modern and lively and gay, then _e should try to matrb her-nape, JjFhereiii. no doubt. lay the solution of his problem, the realization of his dreams. "Perseverance is a good trait, in love as well as in business, Thornton," Sara Sue counseled. "Don't stop trying to win Peaches. If she refused you a date for the freshman dance, ask her again for the big autumn prom, the International, t's not too early to ask her now," Rice' Institute, having won a championship in 1937, and being an independent university in the largest border state, had been chosen by ballot of American football coaches to represent the United States in the first.of a new. series of games between this nation and the Republic of Mexico. The latter would be represented by its own university team from Mexico City, itself an excellent football organization. And following that would be the International ball, honoring the visiting players. It would be the one outstanding social e\;ent of the college year. "Everybody will be there, Thornton," Sara Sue was explaining. "Everybody of social importance, that is.' It would be a real pleasure for you to take Peaches. And—I think she may not be dated yet, and will probably go with you." "Excellent, If she would," he agreed. "I shall ask her. Would you advise me just to telephone, or— perhaps send my request? Perhaps with some flowers" Sara Sue considered. that "Why Thornton—I believe you are right! Surely! What a nice way to do it. Write her, art infomal note, saying—just saying it would surely be a pleasure to escort her to the International ball, or something like that, and put it in a box of roses. Why, I'm proud of you for thinking of it!" Sara Sue would have been thrilled, she knew, to have received a box of roses with a request for a date tied in. Now she could even enjoy Peaches' thrill, a little bit vicariously.' She gazed up at Thornton, smiling sweetly, unconscious ot the mistiness m her eyes. He looked so tine! He was a trifle florid, naturally, and this made him seem boyish when he blushed a bit more under praise. He had weaned himself from the habit of looking away from people when conversing with them, a habit born of shyness. He had stopped being owl-eyed and quizzical and frowny when something startled, him. He was still quiet of manner, and polite, gentle and genteel. But he cetainly was no whit a sissy any more. He went, ahead with his plan, when he had left Sara Sue's cottage. He went personally to. Wade- man's—Clarence Wademan, florist, had been a popular Rice man a few years before—and picked out . the best roses to be had, He wrote his infomal note on a card that Clarence supplied, sealed it In an. envelope, put it inside the box. Two dozen roses, $5, It was fortunate that Dr. Holgate had, a reasonably good income. But then, he had been reared In comparative affluence so that penny-pinching waS unknown to him. He knew quality. Jtnew that this sound dictum would apply even to roses. But, having sent ihe roses out, he worked himself quite unnecessarily into a dither about Peaches' acceptance. Would she, or would she not, turn down his reauest for a date? Penehes settled that detail rather NEW YORK, Dec.c 29 (CP). - There is something transcendental about the power of losing trouble in pictured clothes, the velvet healing won from their contemplation, writes an editor of the Herald- Tribune, quite evidently inspired by a more-than-casual glance, through the Illustrated fashion page. The editor goes on; " "Though horror reign,abroad, ex- asperatlon at home, though head and feet be wary, still in ever happy ads a woman may .eat lotos and drink lethe. After the paper's first dubious pages begin the dreams. Her face lights up; she is not wistful. 'Lame looms Importantly on the horizon for little evenings'— nothing here for tears. 'Stockings sheer as your shadow—reduced.' Comforting words. The paddock coat which you, madame, have sought so desperately.1 No matter how dictators bellow, stores speak as perfect gentlemen. She finds the peace of pure idealism in garments she may never wear. "No other literature Is so calm ing to its faithful. If fewer women Ulan men go insane, this very likely Is the result of clothes, at once restorative and sedative. Distress for other people far and near, along with the ordinary vexations of even a safe and ordered life, prey of course, upon a woman's mind, but as she turns the pages ot her newspaper or review she can find in prophecies about clothes and cosmetics a subtle relief. For women's wear advertisements are a commercial art that never lets its public down. 'There is no envy in it because a street-sweeper's wife, putting on the cabbage as she Jiggles the baby, can glance with sublimated joy at the old Sunday paper, covering the kitchen table; To make you glam-' orous and precious tonight—moon- blue paillettes on a mist of silver tulle.' It probably is easier to scour knives or scrape carrots or even to peel the hard shell from a pie- pumpkin if the toiler can lean on pages glorified by Paris evening coats and dinner hats." Costumes, Dances Pretty as 10 Kiddies Have Fancy Dress Parly Mickey and Minnie Mouses. Arabian Sheiks, Egyptian girls, Dopey of the seven dwarfs, Japanese girls, Christmas crackers, and many other story-book and real life characters transformed the Hume hotel silver room into a fairy land Thursday afternoon, as some 80 children, watched by nearly 100 adults, held a fancy dress ball, under the direction of Mrs. Vincent Fink's circle of St. Saviour's Church Helpers. The afternoon was a pronounced success, with the children presenting a varied program of songs, dances, games and musical numbers. The grand march was a gala affair as was the Lambeth Walk, that closed the party, with the children in their varl-colbred costumes parading around the room. As they entered the hotel, they were met by Mrs. G. A. Corbie as Mother Hubbard. W. S. King, dressed as a chef, In white cap and all. acted as master of ceremonies. He kept the kiddles laughing with his humorous remarks. Tea was served the adults in the hotel younge and the youngsters had their supper on long tables in the Silver room. PRIZES GIVEN Prizes tor the best costumes were given to Margery Cawley, Japanese girls; Joan Nagle, Egyptian girl; Betty Lawrence, most original costume, Christmas cracker; Donna Clark, best tiny tot, Hungarian girl; Jimmy Creech, best little boy, Little Boy Blue; Richard Brown, second best boy Dopey of the seven dwarfs; Alan Hood, best original boy's costume, Arabian sheik; Derry Jepson, Coronation prince; and' Brian Holmes, as the best "littlest, tiniest, smallest" boy. The Rhythm band of the Halleran Studios, composed of little tots, played several selections, and Gordon Fleming rendered a black-face vocal solo. Joan Hunter did a toe dance solo. Margery Cawley and Esther Brodie, assisted by-Gordon Fleming, did "The Way of Old Pekln," a Japanese dance. Five little girls, directed by Miss Greta Curwen, did a tricky doll dance. The girls were Lois Whimster, Dolores Smith, Shirley Ann Holmes, Kathleen Wilson and Fay Johnston. Mrs. C. C. Halleran accompanied the dancers and Rhythm band. The children enjoyed such games as the farmer's in his dell, a hunting we will go, seven jumps, and the hop waltz. Mrs. Harvey Wallace, at the piano, and Miss Maude Dolphin and Miss Daisy Norrls, with their violins, furnished the music for games and some of the dances. Mrs. J. G. Holmes and Mrs. Sid Havdon poured tea, and servlteurs were Mrs. Reginald Dill, Mrs. William Taylor, Mrs. Janet Coates, Mrs. W. R. Grubbe and Miss Connie Hickman. Other members of Mrs. Fink's circle helping were Mrs. D. G. Beatty, Mrs. Gordon Bennett Mrs. C. M. Bennett, Mrs. Leslie Maurer, Mrs. H. F. Wallace, Mrs. W. K. Blair, Mrs. W. J. Leigh, Mrs. E. Brown, Mrs. A. G. Begg Mrs. Drew Wood, Mrs, Leslie Holmes and Miss Kitty Scott. Others who helped were Miss Curwen, Mrs. George Lambert, Miss Alma Smillie and Miss Peggy Dunnett. promptly. "Why. Thornton, how thoughtful of you!" she gushed into the telephone, using by chance almost the same phrase Sara Sue had used. "How can I refuse you, when you send such lovely flowers? Of course I'll go with you!" Of course! Dr.. Thornton Holgate, scholarly graduate cum laude from a famous school, prominent now as a faculty man and recognized as a thinker, had a date. Of course! His roses had worked! Or so he thought. Actually he was too naive, too boyish, to realize that he was still a campus hero who had been in the headlines, and that almost any girl would be honored if he asked her for a date now. Actually, it amounted to a genuine coup for Peaches, whose general stock had been sinking of late. He talked a bit and said goodby, strangely disturbed. Now that he actually had a formal date with Geraldine, at the one outstanding social event of the season, what should he do? Strangely, his enthusiasm was no whit near what it should have been. He had sudden visions of a drunken Peaches, acting disgustingly at the freshman dance. And of a Peaches telling off-color jokes en route to Galveston. He gave quiet but apprehensive thought to these things. But he squared his shoulders then, and stepped outside. He clamped his jaw. Well, by George, he'd go ahead with it. Sara Sue had warned him that a lover must give as well as take, must not ex-, pect the girl to make all the adjustments. If, therefore, pretty Pea ches was determined to enjoy life in a somewhat wild manner, he would join her at least to a degree, (To Be Continued) Score of 49 Wins in Eagbs' Whist With a score of 49, the table occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Cragg, Harold Lafferty and Mrs. Ora Cragg won the honors at the Eagles' whist drive held In the Eagle hall Thursday evening.

As Stylos in Humor Chang* The printed humour of the Victorians, indeed, was remarkable chiefly for its extreme longwinded- ness. its purity of tone, and Its wealth ot explanatory detail. For example: Vicar (who takes a keen interest in the social welfare of his flock, to parishioner whom he—the Vicar- has observed on the previous evening in conversation with a person of tbe opposite sex): "Ah Giles! A delightful morning! By the way, I do not think that I have the pleasure of knowing the lady to whom I happened to see you chatting last night." Parishioner (who-alasl—has been celebrating Mr. Gladstones birthday not perhaps, too wisely, but indubitably too well): "Whoi, bless moi—hie—soul, Parson! That wurn't no lady, surelie, that wurn't! That wur mot—hie—woifel" (Collapse of Vicar, who had not thought of that!)

Sitting down on'the bench, he glanced covertly at Eck a few feet away. Wild suspicions flashed through Rusty's mind. He resolved to ask Eck some question about his essay to see how he acted. Before he could think of what to say, an assistant manager came in and began to assemble equipment and close behind him came two more players. Rusty decided to talk it over with Benny after the practice session. He quickly donned his uniform and ran into.the gymnasium. At the- door he saw the rangy figure of Coach Howe. "Hello, Rusty," the coach greeted him. ed to go on past "Walt a minute," the coach said. "I want to talk to you." They sat down In the bleachers along the side lines. "Rusty," the coach began, "you've got the makings of a good centre. You're fast, you can Jump, and you're a good shot But you've got ope trouble. Too often you want to get rid of the bill before a receiver Is clear. In fact, sometimes you're planning to pass the ball before you get hold of it yourself, and that makes you drop It" "Yes, but coach, you have to pass fast or the other team's defence will be all set" "You're right of course, on that" Coach Howe replied. '."But you can't By George H. Haddock try to pass so fast that your passes are sloppy, I'd like to see you try to Improve, Rusty, because I know I could use you. And there's no time like the present Why don't you start tonight?" "Gee, I'd like to get In some games," Rusty blurted out "111 certainly try," Coach Howe stepped out on the floor. "Good," he said. "Let me see you go, then." An hour and a half later, hot and panting from a lengthy scrimmage. Rusty pad heard his name shouted so often it sounded strange to his ears. Coach I Hows bed been unsparing in his comment and suggestions on Rusty's play, and tbe Boy wondered If lied ever done anything right He knew that he'd made a number of faulty passes, but he also was sure that he'd been more deliberate and certain than he had ever been before. That night on the way home he told Benny of the conversation he had overheard between Harry Jacobs and Eck, and of tils suspicions. Benny laughed, and when Rusty Insisted he might bo right, Beany said sharply, 'Tor the love of Pete, Rustyl They might have been talking about anything." Rusty insisted there were grounds for suspicions but decided not to say any more about it. In the days that followed, Rusty concentrated intensely on the coach's suggestions, Each time he threw the ball to a teammate it seemed as if that particular pass was the only ohe that ever would matter. Consequently, as he gained assurance In his own effectiveness, be. became more accurate. The coach rarely shouted sarcastic comments at him now; and occasionally he praised him, , Meanwhile he had finished his essay.

For this you'll need to borrow all the alarm and "striking" clocks you can find. The idea is to have them set at different hours, and to put them in all sorts ot unusual places so that chimes and gongs will sound from everywhere in the most unexpected way. Place .the alarm clocks under chain/ behind davenports cushions, or wherever they'll give your guests the biggest- surprise and a good laugh. Have them going off at Intervals all bvenlng by setting them for different hours. Use black-and-white decorations, with clock faces drawn on white cardboard peering from everywhere, black-and-white paper drapes, a black-and-white checkered paper cloth for your table, and black-and-white glass or china. And here's n clever question-and- answer clock game called: "What Do You Know About a Clock?" Have your questions typed on slips of paoer with space for answers.

We all have lots of faults, big and little, that could very well be corrected dur- tag M8K . . '. \ But there's a real danger in making too many resolutions, if you are actually serious in your desire to improve yourself. The more you make, the less, attention you will be able :o give to each one, and as a result, all of them aro apt to get broken pretty quickly. It's far better to sit down and think things over, and then decide what one resolution It. would be best for you to make. The mere act of thinking over, your shortcomings will be a good thing for you, and it won't-be hard to decide on the wont of them, , - Then make a real, Iron-clad resolution to overcome that weakness, snd give it all the force ot your attention and your will. Don't break the resolution, no matter what happens. If you do this, you won't only remove a fault, but you will strengthen your will power, and it will be easier to overcome those other things later on. —The Editor.

He then shows a metal or pasteboard tube, slightly larger In diameter than the Jar and empty at both ends, and places this tube over the glass Jar. Now, lo and behold, he reaches Into the "empty" Jar and removes several brightly colored silk handkerchiefs! HOW IT'8 DONE Explanation: When the audience sees your hand through the glass of the Jar, it will be quite certain that nothing lies concealed therein, and they'll never suspect that the rather large label on the front of the Jar conceals the "gimmick.

In this pocket the silks repose until ready for production, and it is absolutely Impossible for the spectators to catch even a fleeting glimpse of this cncealed "gimmick. The metal or pasteboard cover-, which is placed over the Jar is merely there so that the audience can't aee the magician reach behind the label and remove the handkerchiefs.

W. Hochstetier said today. Approximately 10 tons of tin-: (sheet paper will be manufactured and distributed to three Pittsburgh newspapers for tests of tensile strength, Inking and reaction under speed funs. Straw for the pulp was purchased from a Pittsburgh grain dealer but Hochatetter said other farm wasters—Florida grass, seaweed, rotton plant stems "and a hundred other products"—could be used satisfactorily. "As we Bee it now, the chemist explained, "a ton of newsprint from straw and similar materials will cost about 535 or $37 a ton. That will be, I am informed, about $10 to $>1B lest than the lowest prices for wood pulp newsprint" MARKETS ATA GLANCE Toronto and New York—Stocks closed higher.

Since that time the population has increased to almost BOO, the trading post has been enlarged, two hotels nave been built * number of restaurants and two motion picture theatres adorn the main thoroughfare. The originals ot Goldfields were fortunate it they received mall twice a month Now mail and periodicals are delivered she times a week. The Mackenzie Air Service operates out of Edmonton three times a week and another company flies mail out of Prince Albert to the miners and their families on a similar schedule. Men In the community worked together to build an ice rink. There ia a four-team hockey league consisting ot Athona Gold mines, two teams from Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company, and a team representing Goldlields. Athona won the title last year and are leading the league in the present schedule. ■' ;_..'...'.. .'• Recently a curling rink sprang up and the miners are providing masters with the besom and stone. Air though they have not decided to enter competition for the Macdon- ald's brier tankard it would not be surprising if a quartet from Gold- fields were to issue a challenge in the near future. , Bridge is a favorite pastime with miners and their families, although Saturday night finds almost everyone at the dance halt A bowling alley Is also at their disposal and many a pleasant evening is spent toppling the maples.

BEATTY LOOKS TO IMPROVEMENT IN CANADA IN m, ANNUAL REPORT; DESPITE REVENUE DROP RAILWAYS IMPROVED SERVICES DURING YEAR Drop in Carloadings . Paints Picture of Business • . ... By SIR EDWARD BEATTY, G.B.E., ICC, LL.D., Chairman and President, Canadian Pacific Railway Some day it may come to be recognized that this year through which we have Just passed was one of outstanding historic significance. Certainly, history has been made. We do not yet know If 1938 witnessed the turning point in international relations towards a new era ot understanding and economic peace, nor is there conclusive evidence for the belief that the stirring events of a tew weeks ago were but a point marking ,the postponement of another period of SIR EDWARD BEATTY world conflict We do know that the world has passed through a series ot major crises and that we are by no means sure that we have experienced the last of them. Such being the case, it is by no means to be wondered at that Canada, like most other nations, has fallen considerably short of experiencing that industrial and trade revival which seemed to be fairly assured twelve months ago.. In a general way, records ot railway activities over the past year wlu give a fair indication of what has happened over that period. The trend of events may be gathered from the fact that, according to the Dominion Bureau of statistics, Car loadings for the year up to November 25th totalled 2,178,146, a decline as compared with the same period in 1937 of 176,041 cars, or 1% while total cars received from connecting, railroads during the same period were 951,210, a decline of 266,628, or 21.9%. These figures represent a drastic decline in the country's movement of freight traffic, and they are all the more notable when it is remembered that increased western grain crops re- Suited in freight car loadings of grain and gram products totalling Dow Jones Averages 30 industrials . 20 rails 15 utilities ...

Figures for the period under review show only two other classifications in which there were increased loadings, namely pulp wood and ores. The former increased by 5032 cars and the latter by 17,271, thus reflecting continued development In the industries they, represent We find that loadings of coal ore down by 57,512 cars while other important declines to be noted are, pulp and paper, 40,034; lumber 25,- 630; live stock 25,990; merchandise in less than carload lots 23,559; while loadings ot goods coming under the .classification "miscellaneous" are down by 80,643 cars. I take it that this is a fairly accurate picture of what has happened to the country's business at large over the past year: certainly, it reflects the movement of most lines of commodities and covers practically all parts of the country. EFFICIENCY KEPT UP Despite serious contraction of revenues, the railways of Canada during the. past year have not failed to maintain the efficiency of their services to the public of this country, in that respect the Canadian Pacific can look with considerable satisfaction to the record made. To our motive power we have added 85 engines oi the newest type, including ten "Selkirks" which were specially designed for hauling heavy loads over the Rocky mountains. We have ,also added to our equipment 2800 freight jars of various kinds which will replace antiquated and worn-out rolling stick and thus ensure the prompt and careful handling of commodities. The' Company's freight pick-up an* delivery services have been considerably extended, Since its inception, this service has steadily grown In popularity, and in conjunction with fast moving trains, has effectively accelerated freight movements. The company has inaugurated a new freight-service on the Great Lakes between Port McNicoll, Milwaukee and Chicago, while the passenger steamers Keewatin and Assinibola running between Port McNicoll and Fort William have been entirely overhauled and modernized to cope with the increasing popularity of this pleasant holiday trip. On the 'Atlantic ocean the Empress of Britain has also received an overhauling, passenger accomodation being greatly improved and her refrigerated cargo space increased by 50 per cent Our hotel system has had the benefit of improvement in finest rooms and other important facilities including air- conditioning. An extensive program of modernization of the Company's telegraph system has greatly increased its capacity to meet the growing demand for its services both for general business and as an auxiliary to the country's radio broadcasting activities. As a part of our policy oi maintaining the property at the highest'possible point of efficiency we have progressed still farther with the air-conditioning of passenger cars and with the providing of new-up-to-date coaches on many of our regular trains. FAITH IN FUTURE This we have accomplished in the face of declines in business and decreases in revenues, and it may be taken as .indication of Canadian Pacific faith in the economic future of this country as well as of the Company's determination to maintain its services up to the advancing standards of national requirement These are days when one hesitates to make any definite prognostication as to the future, And more particularly is it difficult to forsee what the coming twelve taonths is likely to bring us. As I have often said, I am distinctly an optimist on Canada, on the long view, and anything I have written May not be taken to say that I do not think better times are ahead of us. Were the adverse conditions to which I have referred removed or even substantially ameliorated, there could then be no question of our con tinued economic progress.

Squander our resources as we will and waste the fruits ot our labors as we may, the country will support us for a long time and will probably continue to make some progressive development although far short of what we would have had the right to'expect were our economic affairs In sound order. MOMENTOUS VISIT ' The coming year will be marked by two outstanding incidents, the Importance ot which cannot yet be fully realized. The' promised visit of Their Majesties the King and Queen will be a momentous event Apart from its high political significance, it will draw a vast amount of Empire and particularly British attention to Canada and may conceivably result In greater interest abroad in Canadian products and a possible increased flow ot capital and population to this coun- try-both highly desirable developments. I have no hesitation in saying that I think the latter,Is probably the more Important at this time, snd that I look upon the setting in force of a reasonable and effective Immigration policy as one of the country's more immediate economic needs - Another Important factor In lu-. hire conditions will be the effect of the new tariff arrangements with Great Britain and the United States. We cannot yet tell how these will work out but the earnest hope is that they will result in an increased interchange of commodities and a closer business cooperation between all three Interested parties. Prohibitive tariff barriers throughout the world too long have stifled international trade and any move that would have as .Its object the rationalization of trade and any move that would go far to establish in- tesnational confidence and world business.
