VOL. XII. NO.? I KELOWNA BRITISH COLUMBIA. THURSDAY. APRIL 8, 1920.���4 PAGES ���1.50 Per Talented Musician Leaving Kelowna With the apecial Easier muaic at the United church Sunday evening, Mr. H. Tod Boyd, organist and choirmaster for the past nine years, severed his \"connection not only with the church but with Kelowna, for he is leaving thia weekend for England. The loss of Mr. Tod Boyd from the musical life of the city will be most keenly felt for it ia not often that a musician of his outatanding ability can be induced to remain in so 'amall a place. Had it not been for the fact that hia health had broken down in England, the influence he haa exercised in local music, and the many excellent productiona which have resulted from his skilful training, would have been, lost to us. The name of Mr. Tod Boyd in connection with any concert haa always been a guarantee of a high- class affair. While he ia to be congratulated upon the object of his return to England ��� his approaching marriage to Mias Isolde Menges, the famous violinist-his departure can not but -occasion general regret. He has been the recipient lately of many assurances of this kind from various quarters, and on Friday evening the choir, which probably appreciated hia worth more than anyone else, presented him with a purse of money in token oi their esteem. ' Affer a tour in England, where Miss Menges has many engagements, to fill, Mr. Boyd and his future wife hope to go to California where they will reside. o������������ Leslie Grossmith Here Next Week Under the auspices of the high school and in aid of their funds, Mr. Leslie Grossmith, supported by an excellent company, will give a grand concert and dance in the Morrison Hall on Thursday, April !5th. Miss Marguerite Hill, the charming young-soprano, and Mr. Edwin Brookes, the well-known violinist, will take part in the concert, and apecial orchestral music will be provided for the dance which is to follow. Nothing we can say will add much to the reputation of Leslie Grossmith and his programme of character sketches, good music and refined humorous items will attract a large audience. \"Checkers\" to be Shown Here When Henry M. Blossom's story, \"Checkers,\" was made into a stage play it became one of the biggest successes in the field of melodrama. The screen vetsion produced by William Fox will assuredly duplicate the hit of the spoken play. The atory of \"Checkers\" is one that will alwaya appeal to lovers of racing, and the makers of the picture have seen to it that there is no running short of melodramatic situations to keep the interest st the right tension. There is enough excitement in its seven reels to supply action for half-a-dozen of the ordinary screen stories, and the extent and general excellence of the production are other features that will help it to register a knockout. The cast is a long one, and Thomas J, Carrigan and Jean Acker who play the leading characters, give the hero and the heroine just (he right sort of personalities. Richard Stanton has directed the picture with a - keen, eye to the melodramatic nature of the plot, the race track serines being the real thing. There is also a railroad wreck in which a blazing freight car goes through an open draw, which will furnish a large stock of thrills. Scenes in Chinatown, others around a training track and the biggest scene of all when the heroine of the story gets inside of jockey's suit and rides \"Remorse' under the wire a winner, supply a series of punches that will put \"Checkers\" in the record-breaking class. Misses Flossie and Lilly Patter aon were visitors to Enderby laat weekend, Local Member Accuses Govt, of Reckless Finance Cost of Administration Has Been Doubled in Last Three Years Charging that the provincial government was adhering to a policy of reckless finance in carrying on the affairs of British Columbia, Mr. J. W. Jones, member for South Okanagan, spoke on the budget debate in the Legislature laat week. The chief criticism of the Okanagan member related to increased administration expenditures through the continued addition of departments and sub-departments, and the increased cost of public works and agricultural department operation. He did not wish to find fault with the salaries paid, he averred, but did object to the alleged policy of providing jobs for political favorites. In support of his contention that an enormous increaae in the coat of administration had taken place, Mr. Jonea stated that the salary list in 1916- 17 amounted to $1,664,222, while for 1920-21 it had jumped to $3,212,462, or over double. He pointed out lhat the per capita debt in British Columbia had jumped from $49.31 in 1917 to $76.56 jn 1920, an increase of fifty per cent., and a mark, he maintained, which did not reflect any credit upon th: present administration. Mr. Jones drew a comparison between the expenditures of British Columbia and Alberta, stating that the salaries paid in the prairie province amounted to only $1,647,- 009, and the population of that province was set at 500,000. The difference, he maintained, was startling. Another comparison, stated Mr. Jones, showed thet Alberta with a revenue of $9,642,- 739 in 1919 had a total expenditure of $9,525,784. There were several problems which roust be met in the near future, calling for strictest economy. The list inoluded caring for the cinking fund deficits of municipal- i.ier, new schools, aid' to hospitals and university accommodation. Mr. Jones had quite a lot to say about the Agricultural Department and its handling of land settlement, through the operations of the Provincial Land* Settlement Board, claiming that the coat of administration was out of all proportion to the good accomplished. Before leaving his survey of Land Settlement Board matters, Mr. Jones referred to the repeated changes in the personnel of that institution. He said Mr. Smith had been retired, and since the opening of the present session of the Legislature, M. H. Nelems had resigned as the direct result of internal dissension. \"How long are the others going to stay,\" he asked, and proceeded to deal with the question of reverted lands. Mr. Jones said he had placed certain questions on the order paper which had elicited the information that some 2,208,000 acres of surveyed lands had reverted to the Crown as a result of the operation of the proportionate allotment leg- islaliou of 1916, passed hy the Bowser government. He also said he had asked if a list of these lands had been placed at the disposal of the Land Settlement Board, and the answer given was an evasive one to the extent that the, files of the department were open to the officials of the Board. Still, it was a fact, he said, that the Board'had not'been given the privilege of dealing with these free government lands in handling soldier and civilian settlement. \"No wonder, then, that failure has marked the effortsbf the Land Settlement Board,\" he exclaimed. \"It is time this House wakened up to the fact that the Board should Mr. Jones urged the government to stand behind the agricultural department and provide the assistance necessary to speed up production. The encouragement of land settlement was of primary importance, particularly in central British Columbia where there were large tracts of fine farm lands awaiting the settler. He expressed the opinion that the government should take steps to have radian reserves msde available for settle- Two Local Weddings; PARET-SHAYLER A quiet weddisg wedding ceremony took place Monday morning at the Catholic church, of John Malet Paret to Miss Nellie Blanche Shayler. Both are well-known locally. The'bridegroom who cam* to Kelowna some years ago, has only recently returned from overseas, haying accompanied the 172nd as seigeant. The honey, moon is to be spent at Vancouver and Seattle, after which Mr. nnd Mrs. Paret will take up residence on their ranch at Rutland. j WADE-PERRY A very pretty wedding took place Wednesday at I1 e Knox church, the contracting partiea being Mr. Albert Stanley Wade on the staff of P. B. Willits Co. and Miss Flossie Luella Perry, daughter of Lt.-Col. and Mrs. J.Perry, The ceremony took place at 10.30 in the morning, in the presence of a large gathering of friends, both; bride and bridegroom being well- known and popular locally. The bride was given away by her fath er, her sister Miss Flora Perry, acting aa bridesmaid. Mr. Harman Willits was 'best man. The wedding march was played by Miss Jean Kincad, while Mrs. Braden sang \"The Crown\" (Teschemacher) The Rev. E. D. Braden officiated.. After a reception at the home of , the bride, Mr. and Mra. Wade left for the coast where the honeymoon will be spent. Glenmore Organizes for Sports At a meeting held recently at the home of Mr. Clark of Glenmore, it was decided that Glenmore should be represented in the season's athletic sports, and an organization to be known as the Glenmore Atnletic Association wo* accordingly formed. Baseball, basketball, football and other teams will be assembled, and practicing will be commenced as soon as possible. The officers elected were: President, Dr. Giles; vice- pres., Mr. Cushing; secretary, D. Kerr; treasurer, Mr. Hunt. In order to raise funda for a good start a dance is to be held on Thursday, April 15th. o The United Ladies' Aid of Knox Church will serve tea and have a aale of home cooking on Saturday, April I Oth, in Wesley Hall. The Kelowna Foultry Association is holding its annual meeting najct Wednesday evening at 7.30 in the Board of Trade room. Donald Loane was the lucky winner of the bean guessing contest held last week by L O. Brown to inaugurate the opening of his new store. Donald's guess, which won for him (he 20 lb. sack of sugar, was 1100, the actual number in the jar being 1121. The Kelowna Hospital gratefully acknowledges donations .of two sacks of potatoes from D. McEachem and ten pounda of butter from the Kelowna Creamery. \"Mikado\" Wiil Be Put Ob This Month Monday and Tuesday, April 26th and 27th have been fixed upon as the dates for the production of the \"Mikado\" by a local company of amateurs who have been work ing hard for some time past upon the undertaking. The cast hi been carefully selected, and recently rehearsals have given promise that the best traditions of operatic productions in Kelowna will be fully maintained. The stage management and coaching of the cast is in the experienced hands of Mr, Geo. Benmore, and every effort will be made to ensure a first class and well-staged performance. - The choir of thirty-five voices is being trained by Mr. Drury Pryce, whoae ability in that direction needs little comment. Mr. Pryce will also be responsible for the fifteen piece orchestra. The cast is as follows:��� The Mikado ot Japan W. J. Mantle Nanki Poo A. F. Graves Ko Ko A. H. Shaw Poo Bah G. C.

Rutland News (From oar own rvirr-flxnnndsntr. Messrs. Winter and Chapin have been busy lately making extensions to their Alsgard's ice cream parlor. The new addition will greatly increase the accommodation for the public, as well as making still more attractive this popular reso.'t. Orchard growers are reminded that one of the most necessary precautions to stop the spread of fire- blight is to burn all primings carefully. According to a regulation recently passed all fire-blight haa to be cleaned up bv March 31st. ment, claiming that some of the richest lands in the province were being held out of production Touching upon returned soldier settlement problems in general, Mr. Jones questioned the Minister of Agriculture as to what that official proposed doing in settling the veterans' troubles on the Christian ranch. He said that more than twenty returned men had been engaged in development work there for the past year and that no allotments had been made or could be made because the government could not secure water. The men had worked i faithfully, he continued, and were bitterly disappointed in the way the undertaking had panned out. They had expected to have their families join them this spring, but it now looked aa though the men would have to go elsewhere. Following Mr. Jones on the budget debate was J. S. Cowper, member for Vancouver. Mr. Cowper while declaring he could not agree entirely with the member for South Okanagan, complimented him upon his carefully prepared and en. lightening address. The Rutland War Memorial monument is now complete and fully erected, and the unveiling ceremonv has been fixed for the morning of May 24th. Further particulars will be announced later. There still remain a few of those who promised donations who have not yet paid. Will they do so promptly ? An enjoyable little function took place this week at the Methodist church, when a large gathering of members of the congregation met to do honor to Mr. and Mrs. Fleming and family who have now gone to live in town. The Flemings have for many years been valued workers in connection with the church and their removnl will be much regretted by the community. During the evening a presentation was made to Mr. and Mrs. Fleming of a set of table cutlery. Miss Joy Fleming was also the recipient f a present from the Sunday- school for which she had acted aa teacher and organist, and in other capacities. Later in the evening the ladiea served refreshments. The general meeting of the Rutland Athletic Club, held in the schoolhouse on Tuesday evening, waB fairly well attended. The meeting voted unanimously in favor of continuing the organization. The secretary-treasurer presented a financial statement which showed a credit balance of some $39. The club's assets in the way of athletic equipment were valued at $125. The election of officers ther followed. A. W. Money was elected president by acclamation, H- Lngan becomes vice-president and A. W. Gray was reelected secretary-treasurer, also by acclamation. G. Hea.ip was elected Rules of Road to be Clanged Having decreed that the rule of the road is to be changed in B. C, to conform with the rule in other provinces and in the United States, the legislators are now considering how il is lo be done and in particular who is to bear the cost of the chsnge on the B.C.E.R. lines. Some of the lower mainland members point out that if the expense is thrown upon the railway company, it will almost certainly result in the railway company either defying the law and sheltering itself under the protection of the Dominion railway board, or of carrying out the change and then applying to the railway board for an increased fare. An increaaed fare, it is recognized, would not be a very welcome matter in Vancouver and Victoria at the present time. a One suggestion is that the whole matter should be referred to the people at the same time as the forthcoming referendum on the prohibition question, with a clear intimation that the change, if made must come out of the public purse. football captain for the coming season. The retiring president, F. L. Fitzpatrick, then turned the meeting over to the new president. After some discussion it was decided to go ahead with the plana for the much postponed concert, in order to raise funds to purchase baseball uniforms. It was also decided to encourage the formation of junior teams and assist them aa far as possible. There are no restrictions as to membership in the club, and an invitation is extended to anyone who may be interested in the promotion of athletics, to join the organization. The fees were set baseball captain and E. S. Bush, at $ I per annum as before.

MacLean, miniater of education and provincial secretary, An interesting clause in the new act provides for a Ministry of Education,*' which iocs not at present exist in this province���the only province in the Dominion so si'uated. The pro- ncial secretary is now called \"Minister of Education\" by courtesy only, bul with the passage of the bill Hon. Dr. MacLean will become 'Minister of Education\" in actuality, as well as provincial secretary. The superintendent of health Dr. Young becomes deputy minister of education. No administrative change takes place, nor ate there any increases in salary. The new act will give power to boards of school trustees in any municipal district having a high School to affiliate with the University of British Columbia. Thia is a provision such as was recently sought by the city of Victoria. The act further strengthens th- compulsory attendance clauses in the general act. * Weather Report for March Compiled by G. R.
