Miss Hardman has 33, and vice-principal MacKenzie 32. At the close of the meeting a deputation consisting of the four teachers and Mrs. F. K.

The entertainment is set for November 15th, and practically every school in B.C. is doing some- l hing for the same cause on this date The trustees heart ils*' endorsed the good work and bade those engaged in training the children to :-.ever weary in their well doing in the matter, have got their spuds up.

The Mercantile Co. has donated the hall for the affair, and it was decided to put the admission fee at 25 cents to adults, and 10 cents to all children. The Creston display of apples at the Soils Products Exhibition at Calgary the early part of the week was made up of 35 boxes containing eight different varieties as well as three plate displays.

Early in his j filing line experience he was wounded I during a bayonet charge, but -recovering from the effects -of that he went back to duty only to he killed iu action in the heavy fighting the second week in October. He leaves a wife and one child in Saskatoon, and to them and his parents here will go out genuine j sympathy iu the great/ loss they have .; sustained. I The casualty list m Wednesday's i paper also shows the name of Teddy | Maione among the wounded in the fighting the latter part of the week. Everybody will remember Ted as wine clerk at the Creston Hotel, who Went oyer with the 51th last fall, and who along with the late Pte. Arthur Biddulph, whose death was reported last week, were among the first from that regiment tor .get to France. From the newspaper accounts Maione is not seriously hurt. Walter Hall had a postal from his son-Billy dated Sept. 25th informing his parents of his wounds, but owing to the vigilance of tiie censor no details were given. However, the fact that he was able to send the card the. same day as the mishap is comfortable assurance that his*injuries are not extremely-"tla������getfe'^:*-'*������.- and all are hoping to land a gold medal or two for their trouble. They certainly had gilt edge fruit to show. Several cars of apples will be shipped from here during the next three weeks if the C.P.R. can supply the cars. Messrs. Craigie and Penson will be good for almost two cars themselves. Although an attractive price is now offered for potatoes very few Erickson ranchers are selling just yet.

Although it came in the midst of a very busy season the October meeting of the Wonieu's Institute, on the 7th, attracted an attendance of 30 members, who listened with a great deal of interest to a well-prepared report of the Kootenay Women's institutes convention at Nelson the latter part of September from the Creston delegate, Mrs. W. O. Forrester, who brought back several helpful suggestions for future work of the local organization. The directors have decided to make another contribution to the Servian Relief Fund, and $10will be forwarded that organization forthwith. To the next meeting, which will be held on November Jth, all who can are asked to bring magazines and journals to help fill up a box of reading matter flic Institute is sending the soldiers overseas. At the close of the session the usual tea was served, with Mesdames Dew. Hilton, Stocks and McKelyey in charge. Red Cross workers are more optimistic than ever that their effort to secure a carload of apples in the Creston Valley to send on to the soldiers in England, France and Belgium"fora Christmas remembrance will be successful. Although the real canvass for fruit has not yet begun everyone who has been approached on the subject has been more than willing to help out generously in the good cause. The ladies wish to ask that those donating apples kindly hold them until November 1st, at which time the Fruit Growers Union warehouse will take care of all apples brought in. Now that the counting of the soldiers vote in the recent provincial election is complete.* and we will very shortly know Mr Brewster's exact majority, and the men who will corn- prise his cabinet, Creston, in common with the other B^.C. towns in the Pass. has another trouble on its hands. C.P R. headquarters at Cranbrook has just announced that commencing October 29th, when the winter- schedule becomes effective, "that they propose to operate from Crowsnest clean through to the coast on Pacific standard time, instead of mountain time which now prevails from the Alberta boundary to Kootenay Landing. In brief so far as Creston is concerned the. big railway will adopt the same time for here as now preyails at all points west of the Landing. This means, of course, in order to keep tab on'the railway traffic Creston citizens will either have to carry two watches or else set their Waltham or Ingersoll back an hour on and after the 29th. .Seeing that we have no town clock, or no municipal body to proclamate as to what all good citizens shall do in the matter, each" and all of us can do exactly as we please���������-and cuss ourselves only if we fail Lo eaten a train or miss an outgoing mail through our failure to haye a correctly regulated barometer of time. At Cranbrook and Fernie, of course, the situation is different. Both are city municipalities and ib will be interesting, in the case of Fernie particularly, to see what the civic rulers will do. Cranbrook being a railroad town it will At their meeting Tuesday the ladies opened the special contribution pretty much box for the Duchess of Con naught most likely fall in line with the C.P.R Prisoners of War Frsw.1. which -Jims I time standard. been decorating the post office waiting room for some weeks. The freewill offering was not quite up to the Creston standard so enough of the treasury funds were yoted to make an even t-plO donation, which will be forwarded at once. For a starter for their new year the ladies are this week sending Ut the provincial headquarters at Nelson a bale containing 13 surgical shirts, 11 sets pyjamas, 10 pairs of socks, and a quantity of old linen. The work taken in on the 17th was 2 pyjamas from Mrs. G. Meade, surgical shirt from Mrs. E. wrighf. pairs and 1 Oart- mm\riS*ISSOS9 mfSeatf Paulson Logs Capt.

It means that we will be robbed of ,-in hour of daylight at each end of the day. This may appeal to the dispensers of coal oil and gasoline, bnt even they will hardly appreciate the shortening up of our .summer evenings, or- getting up still another hour before daylight in the winter. It will also mean that out- present train-arrival arrangement that- is so acceptable to most of us will be sadly disarranged. The east bound instead of arriving during the noon hour will be along about 11.30- soinething that will mean much to the soft fruit shippers���������while the west bound will come alongat 2,15 instead of 3.15 as now. While the new arrangement is admirable in that it makes time uniform all over the province, and was like to come seeing this division is now under Vancouver operating supervision in place of Calgary, the transfer taking ellVct a couple of months ago, it is just the reverse of the daylight saving scheme which many western cities adopted for the summer months this year. While a citizens meeting would be of little or no avail to induce the C.P. It. to reconsider its decision, it would be well for the residents hereabouts to get together to discuss the matter and decide whether Creston shall accept the new order of things or no.

Thc Frankfurter Zeitung also emphasizes the importance of compulsion in England, although it says that "hundreds of thousands are surelj* tolerating it i - - are mortgaged, and it is-therefore a question of Aital interest to the farming community. The prevailing average rate of interest in Manitoba on. farm mortgages is seven per cent., and in Saskatchewan and Alberta per cent., and there are mort- per cent.; with in outlying districts. The expense of foreclosure is also complained of. The expenses in Alberta for foreclosures on farms arc almost double those of the other two provinces, running* as high as $400 to foreclose a $3,000 mortgage on a quarter section. The delays are also very serious in that province. Legislation makes foreclosure proceedings very slow, very tedious and very costly,-and all the* cost must come out of the farmer if hc has any equity left in his property.

"It's a person named William Pad- don, Sir Penywern; 1 believe he's a grocer in Marsh Dutton," said the butler, with a very distinct intimation in his tone that hc considered thc visitor an undesirable one. Sir Penywern rose with some hesitation, and turned to thc ladies; "Will you excuse me?" hc said. "I suppose I'd better see the fellow, but I know him. I imagine he only wants help, which I'm sure 1 shan't give him, lo keep him out of thc Bankruptcy Court, where hc certainly deserves to be, if half that's said about him by his decent neighbors is true." Daphne, who was looking very anxious, tried to speak _ about thc visit as if it were of no importance, although her looks betrayed the fact that this was not her view. "How very tiresome for you, Sir Penywern, to bc always at the beck and call of everybody in the neighborhood who wants anything," cried Lady Acrise effusively. "You're too good-natured!

"I should have lo have very strong proof. Besides, it's not my business to pay the man's debts. He got wages and food from us, and with his way of life when his work was over we had nothing to do." The ladies were looking furtively at each other. Thc sound of Pad- don's angry voice reached their cars from thc hall, where hc was arguing with the butler. "But he won't go away!" said Daphne, in tones of acute unt:as';ncss. "What is he saying?" "Never mind what hc says. That is the only safe course," said Sir Penywern with decision.

WINNIPEG _ MONTREAL Germany's Food Restrictions Eating of an Extra Egg a Crime Against the Fatherland Adolph von Batocki, president of the German food regulation hoard, has issued an appeal to the women of rural Germany to divide their food ���������with the women and children of thc towns and cities, says a Reuter despatch from Amsterdam. Herr von Batocki in his appeal says the harvest this year "is in general abundant and that the cattle have recovered from the effects of the fodder scarcity of last winter caused by the failure of crops. He adds: "Restrictions everywhere are necessary, and all the more necessary thc longer the war lasts. These restrictions must be increased for rural households. Anyone living on the land who consumes even half a litre of milk or a quarter of a pound more of butter, or even an egg more than is absolutely necessary, sins against the fatherland. An org- -anizatiou would be created in order to buy up all butter, eggs, vegetables, etc., that can be dispensed with in the country and use them to feed the big towns. the army and the. poorer families in "Little can be accomplished by force or by continual increase in prices which have already become exorbitant for many of the poorer families. Only through rational, spontaneous, patriotic co-operation ������f the rural population can the object be attained."

Presenting a Sublime Spectacle of Unselfishness and Devotion to Principle The sacrifices that our big sister who lives next door to us on the north is making to do her share for th.c Mother Country, in thc present war of Europeans, "arc so vast and inspiring that they challenge the admiration of the world, says the Cleveland, Ohio, Plain Dealer. Nobody courts trouble, but everybody feels like cheering a plucky soul, who, being in trouble, goes sturdily about the task of forcing an honorable way out of it. With Canada it is a simple matter of fighting from a sense of responsibility to the British Empire. Canada has not shirked that responsibility. She is not fighting because she loves war and enjoys the daily perusal of casualty lists. Her griefs are such that a people less staunch and loyal would be crushed under their weight. The war has dealt heavily with the great Dominion. She has given freely the best of her manhood* to the British cause���������a sublime spectacle of unselfishness and devotion to principle. Her reward? There- must bc a reward for such heroic sacrifice. It will probably come from the fact that a great sorrow binds those who feel it closer ar.d closer together. Thc war is a bitter trial to thc Canadian spirit, but the trial will leave the Dominion eventually a stronger, greater country than ever. Canada is suffering much, but she suffers uncomplainingly and the tempering process - of affliction, added to the cohesive influence of a great cause that demands universal sacrifice on the part of her sons, -will mean a country more glorious when the days of trouble are past.

Russian Jews To Be Beerultetl in Great B atn Russia Wiii Have Grand Awakening Peaceful Revolution Is Expected to \x\j vjjCak a JJAJJ50 al wJUac of the War Travellers coming from Russia, no matter of -what nationality, talk of but one thing, tshc wonderful awakening of Russia. Americans, in particular, seem greatly impressed by the growth of national spirit in thc half-mediaeval empire and arc most sanguine as to its future. Great as is the awakening already, all agree that it is nothing to what ���������wiii take place immediately after the war, when millions of soldiers return with ..the new outlook upon thc ���������world, new ideas, and new knowledge of civilized living. Russia, it is said, fully expects a revolution after thc war, but the hope and belief is that it will bc purely political and unattended by bloodshed and destruction. There Are Large Numbers o������ Them Who Escaped Service in Their Own Country A middle way has been found toward solution of the problem of what to do with many thousands of Russian and Polish Jews who are living in Britain, having escaped military service in the Czar's army, and not coming under the British conscription laws. In London, Manchester, Liverpool and other big cities, whole colonies of these exist, a large proportion of them of military age. who naturally came to be regarded with no favorable eye by their English neighbors, whose men were engaged in war work. After some agitation, thc government proposed to enact a law whereby Russian Jews of military age would be forced to enlist in thc British army under the threat of being sent back to Russia, where ^ they would bc liable to heavy penalties as defaulters fronwtiilitary service. This project aroused a storm of disapproval, though ably defended by Sir Herbert Samuel. Sir Herbert, while not withdrawing the original proposals, has now hit on a compromise. Reason and persuasion arc to bc substituted for force and threatening. A responsible committee of leading Russian Jews, Sir Herbert announces, has been formed which will conduct an active recruiting campaign in London and other centres among the foreign Jewish people and definite inducements will be held out to tlicm voluntarily to enlist. There is thc idea of forming a special Jewish corps. Side Jobs Barred Civil Servants Will Have to Stick to Regular Employment It is understood that the minister of finance is about to issue an order which will put a stop to the practice common among civil servants of doing little side jobs during their spare time in order to earn extra money. The reason for this step, it is pointed out, is because at this particular time, when the government is employing large numbers of extra clerks, the civil servants should concentrate their 'minds entirely on the work which the government is paying them to do. As a result of the growing shortage of labor of every kind, the regulations governing the maximum age of candidates for admission to the civil service have beeri dropped. An order-in-council has been passed to thc effect that during the continuance of the war a candidate for examination and appointment to the civil service will "not be ineligible by reason of the fact that his age is greater than 35 years. .

Co., a farmers' ' organization whose activities extend over thc provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and MaYiitoba, has let the contract for thc erection of a new storage elevator at Fort William, with a 300,000 bushel capacity. Fort William already has 19' elevators, with a total storage capacity of 26,940,000 bushels, of which two elevators already belong to for arc leased by the Grain Growers' Grain Company. ^ The Saskatchewan Co-operative EleVator Company, another farmers' organization, intends building this year as many as possible of the 30 new elevators which it has had in contemplation for some time past, one of which is a terminal elevator of. 2,500,000 bushels capacity, and for which it expects to have sufficient liquid. capital to pay out of its own funds without borrowing. Three large interior terminal elevators were completed by the Canadian Government last summer, at Calgary, -Saskatoon and Moose Jaw, with a capacity of 2,500,000 bushels in the first case and 3,500,000 bushels each in the other two. A certain amount of last year's crop was handled at these This 3rear, however, will see that amount greatly augmented. A new feature will mark thc handling of the 1916 Western Canadian grain crop. Anticipating the westward movement of grain to the Pacific coast and thence through the Panama Canal, the Dominion Government has erected a large elevator at Vancouver, B.C., througli which it The Ideal is not idle to suppose a proportion of!

Ask any druggist or dealer, in medicines what is the most popular of the medicinal oils for pains in the joints, in the muscles or nerves, or for neuralgia and rheumatism, and he will tell you that Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil is in greater demand than any other. Thc reason for this is that it possesses greater healing qualities than any other oil. the grain shipments destined for Eu rope will this year pass. This new elevator has just been taken off the contractors' hands by thc. Dominion Grain Commission. At thc end of April, 1915, the total elevator capacity of Western Canada, according to the joint tariff published by the Canadian railways, was 148,435,000 bushels. With thc additions made that arc referred to above and others that have not been announced, it is safe to assume that this year the elevators of Western Canada will be capable of storing 155,000,000 bushels. The flour milling capacity of thc country in the summer of 1915 was 59,000 barrels per day and a corresponding increase in this direction is also to be looked for. doesn't see Minard's Liniment Cures Burns, Etc. much and digests everything."

There were . still large knots of enthusiasts, military | ;ind lay, who thought that the German lines in the west would be widely breached in a few weeks.

Wc have the answer en both points, and the stern, sob^.r judges, who now quite predominate in the direction of this business, are justified. The tempo of victory will undoubtedly be pretty slow, at least until the fighting is resumed on the final and largest scale in spring.

Another thing is that continued German brutalities and barbarities toward thc Allies' wounded and prisoners, and toward the civil population of tbe occupied districts of France and Belgium are putting a very stark, grim temper into the; British, French and Russian armies, j 'Vou know well, what happens when j the more good humored and indul-: gent temperaments, if provoked long enough, rise without a -word, but also without ruth, to bruise a bully. Throughout the English-speaking world this is universally understood, but it has been quite useless to tr}' to explain it to the Germans. They persist in thinking that frightfulness intimidates- and quells, whereas it only, hardens and exasperates their opponents. With inexplicable fatuity the enemy still clings to the ghastly preconceived pedantries of the German War Book without any attention to the change of circumstances, or any rational and balanced consideration of what thc consequences must be. Finally, there was the murder of Captain Fryatt. It touched England ou the maritime side like thc sinking of the Lusitania, and on thc moral side like thc fate of Edith Cavell. This crime was almost more stupid than either of thc others. It filled up the cup. There is always in England a strain of sentimental idealism on which Germany, by a more clever and plausible policy, might have worked to the deep prejudice of British national interests? But the enemy has eliminated for us what we thought at the beginning might eventually be our greatest national danger. The murder of Captain Fryatt extinguished the last faint lingering possibility of a weak peace. In that respect a curious thing has happened. France, wliich longed for a speedy end a year ago, is preparing as a" matter of course for a third winter campaign and another year's fighting. Britain has simply put aside all speculation about the duration of the war. Onr people from top to bottom arc determined now to make a clean thing. There is no more talk of "elt-nc.liiiig leelh" or "selling jaws" or of anything like lhat. There is no further need of such conscious expression. Thc mood 1 describe is entirely noiseless aud automatic. To bring home to lhe. German mind any sense of what that means would be impossible, That is why T say that the killing has only begun, aud that the final stage of the war will be by far the 1-loodiesl. ll will last for nine mouths or twelve or a little more until the central empires go under.��������� j.

At midnight on July 26 the Admiralty announced this precautionary step in the following message to the press: " 'Orders have been given to the first fleet, which is concentrated at Portland, not to disperse for manoeuvre leave for thc present. All vessels of the second fleet are remaining at their home ports in proximity to their balance crews.' "On the morning of Wednesdays July 29, the first fleet slipped quietly away from Portland under" the command of Admiral'Sir George Calla- ghan. Its departure yvas unheralded and without ceremony. There was, indeed, a little cheering and the bands on board the ships were playing as thc big squadrons left harbor, but for thc rest the nation's God-speed was a silent one. As Mr. Churchill has told us, on the night of July 29 the whole of the fleet, with its auxiliary cruiser squadrons and flotillas, passed the Straits of Dover and gained its war station in northern waters. Along the cast coast the patrol flotillas were completed to war strength, the naval aircraft moved to the vulnerable points, and thc second fleet embarked its balance crews, thc use of some of the university buildings and grounds. The unit remains there for all its training on this side and goes to England without first going to camp. Any* enquiries as to enlistment and service will be gladly attended to on application to thc Officer Commanding 6th Overseas Universities Company, C.E.F., Molson Hall, McGill University, Montreal. With the Boy Scoots Interesting Bits of Information Gleaned From Far and Near Arrangements have been made whereby the flags which have flown over the Canadian Boy Scouts' hut at the front will bc preserved, as mementos of the war and of the share [ that thc Boy Scouts of Canada had j in it. This action was suggested by j Sir Robert Baden-Powell, and was j heartily approved of by the Canadian General Council of the Boy Scouts' Association. At the end of the war thc flags will be sent back to the Canadian Scout Headquarters. It is j quite probable that they will be used j as challenge flags for presentation to j deserving troops.. The recent death of Capt. the Hon. Roland Phiiipps, who" was killed in action at the front, removes one of the most gallant members of the great brotherhood of Boy Scouts. Capt. Phillips was, in every sense, a "good Scout." It was due mainly to his efforts that many troops sprang into existence throughout the British Isles. The point about his life which should commend itself to every Scout in thc world, is that while similar precautionary measures | throughout his career ds a Scout the Printing Known Long Before Caxton Those who believe, printing to have been invented in F.uropc (luring the 15'.! 1 century may have been .uirpris- 1 A lu n ..j! of fVm'.i-'i'r;,- Vnivr r ��������� i1 ;��������� having acquired "the works of thc Chine.-u1 philosopher, Liu Tsung Tuan, printed in 1167."

The Duke of Saxc-Cohurg-Gotha, and Prince Albert of Sehloswig- Holslein are both grandsons of Queen Victoria, thc former being a son of Prince Leopold, Duke of Albany, 4th son of thc Good Queen, and thc latter a son of Princess Ifelena, daughter married 3rd . who Prince Christian of Schlos- of Queen Victoria, wig-Holstein, The Duke ' of Cumberland, father rA ihr Vr.'-.-rr'-. -;s,;-,-<���������-..b .., Vux'.x- Ernest, is a great grandson of George 111., grandfather of Queen \ ictoria, and by his marriage with Queen Alexandra's sister is uncle to King George V.

"Don't take tips" is the caption of an article which appeared in one of thc recent issues of thc "Scout," the official organ of the Boy Scouts. The warning note in this item is that one cannot do a good turn for another in a really friendly way if one is thinking of the "tip" that is to follow. This very lofty ideal has always been urged upon Canadian Boy Scouts by their Scoutmasters and other officers, and while some may be wont to accept tips for doing odd jobs thc average Canadian Scout will not accept a tip for doino- a go.>d turn. There arc 100,000 ex-Scouts in thc British army of today. This information comes to hand in a recent newspaper interview with Sir Robert Baden-Powell. The British Navy also has its quota of Boy Scouts. In this connection, Sir Robert said: "Admiral Beatty and 5,lie late Admiral Hood, who lost his life in the battle of Jutland, have lestifie.d to ihe efficiency of our methods through their experience of the ex-Scouts in the Royal Navy. Thc influence of these hoys has told enormously on the fleet', according to Admiral Heiod. Generals iu the army have said lhe same, thing concerning ex-Scouts who have served under them." Sir Robert added: "Our boys are t...v....i r... ,.,���������-.,., ,, .,.1. r,..- 1 ,.*,: zenship, which is the basis for success in whatever career they may ultimately adopt. To train them solely for soldiering would make them too much a part of a great machino. We try to make a hoy more or Irss dependent upon himself--in a word, self-reliant." But with this increasing wealth comes the call for thrift and the necessity of applying surplus savings to higher purposes than the satisfying of individual tastes and cravings. Parsimony and extravagance are equally reprehensible in these days of war. In the monthly letter of the Bank of Commerce attention is directed to the warning words of the Chancellor of thc Exchequer, the Right Hon. Reginald McKenna, who exposes the fallacy underlying the argument that expenditure of money at. home, for whatever purposes, increases prosperity: "It is often necessary iu dealing with problems of war expenditure to 'speak in terms of money, but think- jing of those problems exclusively in I terms of money often leads people i very much astray. For example, I ihave heard it said that the more 'money that is spent on home products the better, because the more money is circulated thc greater the prosperity. Tin's..is a profound error. What thc nation needs is goods, labor, and services for the successful prosecution of the war. Everyone's work is wanted either directly or indirectly for this purpose, whether for supplying our fighting forces or for making goods for export with 'which to pay for necessary imports. Expenditure on non-essentials, whether produced at home or abroad, diverts capital and labor that can ill bc spared to purposes which do not help us in winning the war." The great essential need iu this third year of thc campaign is to ply the sinews of war. In this adians may aid materially by applying their surplus savings���������savings not only from surplus revenue, but savings effected by abstaining from needless expenditure on non-essentials���������in taking up thc war loan stock. . . . There are few in Canada who do not yearn for sonic opportunity of helping to smash the enemy. It is not given to everyone to do" ihis on the field of battle. But by thc husbanding of all our national [resources, by a rigid policy of thrift, Governments and people may do much to ease the burden of war in the days to come by applying available savings to investments of this character. In this way, if in no other, Canadians may feel the conscious pride that comes to every man who is "doing his bit" in this war.���������Toronto Globe. No Peace Agreement With Germany Worth the Paper it Would Take The Army and Navy Gazette, the well-known service weekly, discussing peace terms, says as follows: "Once again there are signs that Germany is preparing a peace propaganda and that a select body of earnest men has been engaged to go about the country misleading the people and endeavoring to convey the ! impression that Germany is ready to kc peace���������of a kind���������but that her enemies, who refuse to know when +}. ������v ~-������ IVfstprs -svill -.-.r.i *!c:r--;-. ir, ihr- terms wliich Germany once more holds out. The peace which Ger- many wants is one-the terms of which will give her all the spoils of victory, and thc peace conference which the German nation is to be invited to visualize is one of the old-fashioned kind at whieh the victor, in this case represented by Germany, sits at the head of a long table and does all the talking while everybody else listens obsequiously and signs whatever documents arc put before them. This may be Germany's idea of a peace conference, but we nray assert, without much fear of contradiction, that France. Belgium, Russia, Serbia, Great Britain and the rest of the Allies have formed other views. If the conference is held, Germany will be excluded, the terms will be' decided in her absence and they will be announced to her for immediate acceptance. There can, we believe, be no peace wliich will be agreed to by those nations which have suffered most and whose voices will therefore carry most weight, which does not include sentence of punishment; and wc shall not ask Germany to sign any paper, for we have learned by experience that neither her word nor her bond have any value, that she is with- ��������� out honor among nations and that (she makes peace not because she t chooses but because she must."

The trenches here have peculiar interest, as wc and the enemy both occupy thc old German front line, which wc attack daily from itself, moving up and along, never frontally. The method is necessary to the position, but is not all advantage, for the Boche had foreseen even this and made arrangements to sweep, rake, or* enfilade the captured passages of his own house.

Cook's report on the recent Institute convention other important business will come up. Prospecting activity in the hills in the Creston country is brisker than f'u- many years.

He took along a mascot for the guard troop in the shape of a bull terrier pup wliich Rev. J. S. Mahood donated the cause. Gugor Slyippin'uck, a Canyon City Austrian, who was nabbed by provincial constable Forrester on Friday while in the act of trying to get over into Idaho via Port Hill, was re-interned at Morrissey on Monday, Corp. Keddell taking him back to camp. Only routine business and very little of that occupied the deliberations of the Creston school board at the October meeting on Tuesday night. School taxes are coining in in pretty good shape, the department advising that the arrears for this year are less than $1,000. Andy Miller, who has been with the forestry department all season was in from Yahk on Sunday. Theg department has hnd a crew of men at work there for some time completing TO miles os trail from Cariboo Camp to East Fork, thus providing for wagon road communication between Yahk and Waldo. The choir at the Methodist church, which has been rather badly disorganized since the departure of Rev. F. L. Carpenter iu June, was gotten together again at a meeting of those interested at tht* church on Friday night last. Since Rey. Mr. Lees Iuih taken permanent charge the congregations at thin house of worship show n gratifying ineieaso. Monday's "Bermuda high" which took the mercury up to 07 in the shade was atoned for on Tuesday when almost a regular MacLeod gale blew all morning, followed by an hour or two of rain in the afternoon. Although the official thermometer only showed three degrees of frost on Wednesday morning tbe ground and vegetation had the appearance of the nt ilVist weather of the season.
