MARCH 9, 19-16.-6 PAGES $1.50 Per Annum A Mom Letters From the Trenches Kelowna Boy in the Thick of the Fighting in France Further letters have been received this, week by a member of the "Record" staff from Private H. Lefevre, a Kelowna boy who writes from "somewhere on God's green earth, I don't know where!" Presumably he is in France, and probably by this time is in the thick of the fighting, now taking place there. "Our battalion,'/ he says in a letter dated Jan. 22nd, "received several boxes of apples from the Okanagan, and any, they were splendid! ^They were the moBt welcome gift l think our battalion ever received, and the boyB sure did enjoy them. I am the only boy in our battalion, so fur as 1 know, from the valley, and so you can guesB I was proud of this gift. They have nick-named me 'Okey' because I told them that was the on,y place where they grew apples .... "We have two boys in our battalion who have, been awarded the "D.C.M." for bravery. One of them ran out under fire and earned in a chum who had been wounded. The other threw himself on a bomb to save a comrade. It was at the Grenade school and one of the boys was throwing a bomb, when he slipped and fell, the lighted bomb falling among a bunch of men standing around. There , was no time to pick it up and get it out of the way. This fellow seeing this threw himself upon it so it would not hit the rest. He got wounded in the chest and arm but he will live all right. One of the other follows got his leg blown oft". It was the bravest deed any man could ever do, I think, but as it was not in the firing line, he could not .get a V. C. . . . "1 guess you folks over there aro all talking about the war being over toon and the boys in Kelowna saying they will not get over here before the finish. You tell them from me they will see all they want to eee and maybe just a little bit more before they have finished. "P.S.���Since writing you this letter we have pulled off a little stunt. About 2i> oi the boys thought they woujld visit Fritz, so over they went to" the front line with bombs and bayonets one night, jumped into the trenoh and drove Fritz out, killing about forty and taking three prisoners, one aSioer, one non-com., nnd <m> private. There was a hot little corner of H over there for a few, minutes and there iB one machine gun will never shoot again. "Two fellows w0rked for hours under the mouth' of it cutting barbed-wire. One was w0unded, but kept working. Fritz never showed fight but just threw up his hands, although there were thousands of them. They were Prussians." * Writing a few days later he says: "We are baok behind the lines for a month'* rest now and let me tell you we sorely needed it. "Say, Bob, you would think the world had stopped to be away from those eternal bullets, bombs, sausages, coal boxes and whizz-bangs. The lust few days put in in the trenches were sure a nightmare. Shelll Say, Fritzy must have shipped over a Couple of hundred carloads from the U.S.A. We have found shell noses marked Simeon U.S.A., 191P. "If I get over to England soon, I will send you a good souvenir. A shell landed near me and half buried me. The concussion drove me mad for a few minutes. I did not etop to dig up the noso just then us I had important business elsewhere, and the shells were just a*little too thick to stick around, But I got it later when I could Bee things in a different light, "One of our prisoners, who had an iron cross said Germany would win this war inside of three months as sure as the sun rises���but we all oome from Missouri!" Interesting Souvenir From Salonlki A souvenir of the war from Salottiki and of especial interest to Kelowna, was received this week by Mr. Geo Whittaker from his brother, who is with the British forces assembled ii the Balkan port.

Unfair Practice in Victoria Election Tho third by-election rendered necessary by the reorganization of tho Bowser cabinet held in Victoria last Saturday, and which ended in another sensational victory for the Liberals, Mr. Brewster, former Liberal leader beating the Hon. A. C. Flumerfelt, minister of finance, by an overwhelming majority, was made the subject ot sensational charges in the-'Hoise on Tuesday by Ernest Miller, of Grand Forks. , ��� Mr. Miller claimed that the publican and the preacher were both induced by the Liberals to 'support their cause in Victoria. One section of the Liberals gathered in the prohibition 6vote while another section captured the liquor interests. The Grand Forks member declared that in fact the liberals who- had posed as prohibition supporters actually had a conference with the liquor interests in Victoria and had arrived at an understanding with'them. When this assertion was .denied by Mr. Brewster, member elect for^Victoria, Mr. Miller offered to produce the name of his informant, who he said had actually addressed the liquor gathering referred to. Mr. Miller went on to assert that the Liberals of the province imported, Tammany Hall politicians from Now York' to help them win the by-elections and after their success in Vancouver brought over 150 heelers from the terminal city to help capture the capital city. A Herd of Cuttilo The herd of Cattalo, recently purchased by the Dominion government, from the. estate of the* late Mossoni Boyd, has just been received at the Scott station, for the winter months. As this is the only herd in Canada, they are attracting considerable attention. The cattalo aro a mixture of cattle and buffalo blood. They are larger animals than either the buffa'o or cattle, the cows weighing, from liSOO to 1,600 pounds, They have the buffalo coat, and dress out from 5 to 10 per cent. As a class, thoy appear to be hardy, and splendid rangers, faring the storm like the buffalo, instead 0f driftingwith the wind as do the otitic or sheep. The main difficulty in the way establishing���this new breed, is lack of fertility, partioularly in males. If 'these difficulties can overcome,, and a now breed established, with the buffalo Coat, high dressing percentage, and hardiness, it will mean much to Western Canada. The herd is running on ,i large pasture field on the station and d > not appear to suffer from th^ eo'd. Thoy aro fed oat sheaves once a day. They appear no wilder than ordinary range. cattle. of the the be Moil's Ft Present 11 Will Appeal to Farmers to Forego Outstanding Arrears of Prize Money ��� Could Then Own Building and Start Anew With a Clean Sheet The adjourned annual meeting of the Agricultural and Horticultural Society was hold last Saturday afternoon in the dining room of tho Royal Hotel Mr. R. A. Copeland, the president for the past year presided over aO fairly largo and representative meeting. The financial condition of the Society which the auditor's report showed to be very unsatisfactory, overshadow ed all ' other subjects for discussion. How t0 dispose of the accumulated arrears of prize money and place the So- cieey*on a firm footing once more was the problem which raced the new board of directors. At the request of the directors, the accounts of the society, which had got into some confusion were thoroughly audited by .Mr. G. A. Fisher, and in his report read at the meeting he puts tho truth bluntly* "It is apparent from nn examination of the accounts that the sports, band and other expenses have left nothing to pay on prizes accounts. Of the latter there are now three years, or rather two full years, 1914 and 1915 ftnd a part of 1913. "You will note by the balunce sheet that there is owing for prizes about 82,000 and sundry creditors for 1914 and prior $760 odd dollars, and for 1915, 379. Also, the sports prizes for 1915 are unpaid to tho extent of $221.05 and f0r 1914, $70. "Your assets are practically nominal amounting to a little over $200, and the buildings, which are not any use as a cash asset." As a way out of the difficulty thV' following suggestion was made in tne report: "Issue a printed statement showing' the amount of prize money due, the amount of1 bank loan ant? sports prize creditors, and, that you havo n(> realizable assets to pay these accounts, except that if a show is held next year the government grant will take care of the ban'i loan, and leave a smalt balance. "Then commencing with 1917 the Association will be in a position to resume cash payment of prizes. At the close of tho letter, appeal to the prize winners to sign a release to the Association discharging the Association from the liability for the above prize money. For this purpose enclose a stamped (postage) postcard with tho necessary form of release printed on it and addressed ()n the reverse side to the Association. Have every letter registered with u special extra postage paid of 5 cents on each letter which insures a return to the Association of a receipt for every letter delivered by tho poBtoHice. "You would, 1 think in this way get a Bo^t of majority on the prize money question. It would be necessary 'to mail about 200 letters and the approximate c0st would be #30, and I think t would bo worth the expense." This matter was debated at considerable length, and various views wero expressed both for and against th" idea of asking the prize winner?) to donate the amount due to them. Mr. Pridham suggested th ii ih> matter should be brought up at the various local branches of the Organization Association* He believed that if 'ho position was placed fairly before the farmers, they would be willing, ()ut of loyalty to .the association to make the sacrifice. Tt was finally decided to lea/e tho question in tho hands of the '.aoami.ig direotors. The chairman then read the following letter which ho had received from the Armstrong Agricultural Society, suggesting the holding of n joint fair alternately at Armstrong ind Kelov. ���na: Dear sirs,���I have been requested by resolution unanimously passed at a s|wetal moeting of the .directors of the Armstrong and Spnllunichccn Agricultural Society, held last Saturday to write and respectfully aflk. ^f your association will forego their exhibition for the year 1916 aa wall as any grant you would oxpeet v'o ie- ceive from tho Department of Agriculture, Victoria, B.C., in* favor of the exhibition to be hold in this city Friday and Saturday, September- "29th fa 90th respectively. The Armstrong and 1 Spallumcheen Agricultural Society for this Concession agree to forego thoir exhibition for" the year 1917, as well as any grant in aid {hey would expect from the Department of Agriculture, Victoria, B. C, in favor of tho Kelowna Agricultural Society for the said year 1917." I may be permitted to add that I have been appointed manager of the Armstrong an<f Spallumcheen Agricultural Exhibition for this year, without salary tlnd if Kelowna agrees to comply with Armstrong's request I shall be very pleased to offer my services to manage your exhibition without emolument for the your 1917. My sole object in giving my services for ...what they are worth to both associations is my sincere desire to see one good exhibition in the valley each and ev cry year und in my opinion this can be accomplished by holding one fair and the other localities assisting to make the exhibition representative in every way of what the valley is capable of producing in the way of Agriculture and Horticulture. For this year I hope to be successful in arranging for tw() special excursions, one from Alberta and one from the coast to visit our exhibition here, and 1 shall ask that Kelowna, Summerland, PeichVnd nnd Penthton he placed on th'- itinerary of the trip and would expect a committee of cPi/ens from each of the places mentioned to meet theso excursion] ; nd give every information possible 'to thb visitors. It will afford me very much pleasure to attend an.- meet'n/s you may desire me to be present at and I shall bo wilting at all times to give you any information you would be of the opinion it was nevessary to hive. ..J sincerely trust your" association will grant the request "of Armstrong's Agricultural Society and in the event' of their doing; so we would bo very pleased if you would appoint a committee to act- with our association to assist in making a success of the ,ex- hibition and ,a credit to the valley. Yours respectfully, W. H. KEARY, Mgr. Mr. Copeland said that personally his experience with joint fairs had been that tho first fair was apt to bo a very good one, but the second somehow was never so successful. He advised go'ng very curefully with any such proposition. The'following were the new directors appointed: E. R. Bailey, C.C. Prowse, W. T. Sohejt, "T. Morrison, D. EnuiB, A. D. Monsees, P. Oatono. ���'��� L. Pridham, S. T. ElHcjtt, H. W. Raymer, A. Cooke, A. McQunrrie, M. Hereron -and C. Rogers0n. Votes of thanks were passed to the retiring Board of Directors, with especial reference to the president, Mr. R. A. Copeland. They had worked hard and faithfully in the interests of the Association and had put in a great deal of time without hope of any recompense. At n hiter meeting of the new Board J. L. Pridham was elected president, with C. C. Prowse vice-president. Government Publication Deals With Silos While no official announcement has been matle from Ottawa bo far with regard to the summer quarters of the troops mobilized in British Columbia, it is said that Vernon will in all probability be tho scene nga>n of the\mili- tary camp for the forces in training this side of the Rookies. In all there are fourteen infantry battalions formed, being formed or authorized to be formed, nnd it is stated that if tho camp is held at Vernon this summer in all probability some 15,000 troops will go under canvas there. A fleet of twenty-five German warships was observed Monday cruising in tho North Soa according to a despatch from Vlicl'and, North Holland. Tho vessels, the despatch says, approached from the northeast and later disappeared^ northward. Under cover of a heavy snowstorm the Herman fleet has sailed from Wil- helmshaven, presumably for tho purpose of giving battle to tho British fleet, according to unconfirmed advicos All efforts lo verify the report havo failed. Many requests have been received by the department of agriculture at Victoria for plans and specifications us well as advice on tho- building of silos, because wide-awake farmers are alive to the fact that thc silo is one of the best paying investments ever made on any farm. Srlago when properly prepared is the best substitute for feed when pasture is not available. Many silos have been built under the direction of thu department throughout the province, and to provide more accurate information for the farmer contemplating the erection of suoh a building, tho department has just had published. Bulletin No. 66, entitled "Silos and Silage" which bring to the farmers in a comprehensive form the many details so necessary in deciding what type to build. This bulletin is just off" the press and farmers who d -sire a copy should write to the Department of Agriculture Victoria, B.C., and one will be mailed post paid. . Gardening on a City Lot The rapidity with which the circular, "Cordoning on a City Lot" was disposed of last spring has necessitated the printing of another edition of this much sought after circular. Last year those living in tlie cities as well as those in the country heeded the Patriotism and Production advice of the government and to gain an intelligent idea of how to proceed in making �� garden on a. city lot. W. H. Robertson, nssistunt horticulturist, prepared this circular. It deals with the cultivating of the garden before planting and the care of the land as regards fertilizer and moisture as well as many other matters having a direct bearing on the successful cultivation of a back yard garden. The best seeds to procure and how to plant them is given in detuil, while the general information is well worth Growth of the Kelowna ' Poultry Association Success Attends Cooperative Purchase of Feed The story of ehe rapid growth in membership of the Kelowna Poultry Association, and the increasing scope of its activities was told last Wednesday ovening at the annual meeting held in the Board of Trade room, when the secretary, Mr. A. Notley, gave his renort of the year's work. With a membership almost quadrupled, nnd a comfortable balance in the bank the Association is now in a strong and healthv condition. At the beginning of lust year the secretary said, the local poultry industry had ben in a deplorable condition, due largely to the high price of feed and the low selling values of eggs and poultry. Thousands of birds were killed off, and poultry keepers became very discouraged. The association consequently Bank to a very low ebb. The new board of directors however, resolved that this state of affairs should not be allowed to continue, and they tackled the problem with energy and determination. After much careful consideration, they came to the conclusion that the first necessity to revive the industry was cheaper feed. Tt seenied almost impossible at the time witli an empty treasury, and a small membership to under-t ake the purchase of feed on Cooj>erutive lines, but the directors were men of backbone and determination and eventually means were found to purchase the first carload, and this was distributed to the members at only so much above cost price as Would defray expenses of hauling. Since then the feed purchases of the association hfiVC amounted to nearly 85,000, and he estimated that the approximate saving to the members had been fully S700, wwhich amply justified the existence of the association. The membership had risen 'from 30 to 112, and he believed that many more would join when they realized the ben?fits to be derived. In the perusal of those who decrease the coBt of living.

Early requests arc advised as the circular is a popular one. The Kaslo Women's Institute has just issued an attractive 40-page cook book which contains about 200 recipes, which have been found to be all that tho members vouch for them. This Institute is one of the most active in the province and its work in canning fruits has, brought an enviable name to Kaslo. The products of the small jam factory, conducted by the Institute, are in demand by the people of the upper country and now the women of the province may make the many pies, cakes, puddings, soups, meats, candy, preserves, cookies and biscuits, and other tempting dishes from the recipes which have brought renown to the Kootenay district.

Next year in all probability twice the amount of food would be hnndled at very little increased overhead expense. The usual annual winter show had been a modest one, as regards number of entries, but this had been outbalanced by the unusually high quality of the exhibits. The egg and the dressed poultry classes had been by far the best ever exhibited in Kelowna, and certainly ahead of those seen at the Provincial Show at Chilliwnck. This was ample pro0f that We had the right stock and that breeders knsw how to prepare and exhibit it. Ho believed that prospects for the coming year were bright. Enquiries were beginning to come in from the prairie provinces for breeding stock and eggs, and in his opinion a little money spent by the breeders in advertising their stock would be a paying investment. Ho thanked the president and directors for their assistance during the year. 6 The meeting which was presided over by the retiring president, Mr. C. C. Prowse, was fully representative of the chief poultrymen, farmers and stockbreeders of the district, and a feeling of # great sntisTuction \vas expressed generally at the good showing made, and the successful outcome of what had been more or loss of tin experiment. A long discussion look place on lhe question of handling and marketing of eggs, and poultry products, and it was felt that vigorous steps should l>o taken to put this on a better basis. It was the general noVion that the present system of trading was most unsatisfactory. Negotiations had already been made with a view to putting this upon a cash basis, and it was unanimously resolved6 to Continue the efforts along this line. The election of officers for the cnni- inu year resulted in the appointment of A. R. Drysdnlc as president, with Lynn Harvey as vice president. ' and the following directors: .1. Middleton, C. C.

Kelowna has been getting a g00^ deal of attention from the coast papers lately. Tins is nil right in one way. We are glad to Bee that they ttre really aware that there is a dot on the map nf British Columbia bearing the name ot Kolowna. They did not always seem to know this. Tho trouble is however that most of these notices have not been of a very web ] come description, and have been misrepresenting facts in a w;i.v not Culcu- la ted to do us much good, We have manv things to regret no doubt,���who has not? But tnero is one thing of which we citizens of Kelowna ;iro justly proud, and that is our cli- mate. Wo have had n severe winter, ' of course, but we would like to point ouit to our coast can temporaries���and it really seems necessary to do this��� j that the severity of the season now happily past has not been confined to Kelowna! In .some other parts of ' Canada, people have found it necessary i to wear overcoats, nnd possibly to hring out a lon,j-neglected snow-shovel l or two. Is it necessary that wo, who I in comparison with other places, have been let off fairly lightly, should be held up as a horrid example of the way in which the North Pole tried to get down to the Equator? Great shivering Esquimosesl We didn't have to dig our way out of the back door with a snow plow, or to tunnel under ten feet of the beautiful t0 get to the sidewalk, as we ���understand from thu veracious source alluded to they had to do at the coast! Nor did we have to burn up the back steps to kera us from freezing. One would think to read the "Province" lately that conditions in Kelowna were ns bad as in Berlin. Now what do you think of this for a sample? "Kelowna has been in a most seri- "oub position. She bus no rail con- "nection with any point, and boats "cannot get near tht. wharf. The sup- "ply of coal and wood is low. Wood "is |8 n cord and farmers are haul* "ing it twenty miles." Boats can't get near us, eh! Don't you believe It"/ Mr. "Province." Tell your correspondent, he's had a nightmare. Why, H.M.S. Sicamous only missed her regular visit here once, nnd that was not on account of the ice here, but because she was detained by pressing business elsewhere! Pushing business in fact. As for coal shortage ���yes, we admit we did get a little anxious for a day or two, because several cars which should have reached us were held up by the snow blockade at the const; but they came through all right, and since th-n "we have had coal enough for all comers. Wood is $8 a cord! No, it isn't. Not even in war times. Wood has been cheaper this winter than it has been known for years. The present market price is $4 a cord fln'l thousands of cords have been hauled in at that price and even lower. That was while the sleighing was good, but tho sleighing has been gono for a couple of weeks or more. Yes, the snow actually melted away, and now we have mud, M L* DI Oh! don't try to spring any of that Dr. Cook stuff on us, because we know better. We know you havo had the advantage of lots of hot air at the coast while the by-elections were on, but Kelowna has fuel enough to keep warm, so don't worry any more.

The failure of the debenture by-law to flecure the necessary three .fifths majority in South Vancouver caused the municipal council recently to pass it resolution instructing the municipal solicitor to institute suits immediately against every ratepayer who is WO or more io arrears with his taxes. la i Random Remarks ( By the "Chiel" | n " A cli id's amang ye takin* notes, |=�� And feth he'll print them." L ^m^BMMc^^MSBMSSBcM^MB LJ-ffiiB I see by the coast papers that J-here is being organized there a "pay-up week", u period In which all' petty accounts are to be paid off as fur as possible. The. promoiXrs argue that if the public would fall in *i a an 1 endeavor to Pay the grocer,, the butcher and others the money which ha* ^een owing them for a long time, the result would bo a great stimulus to business and a vastly improved state Of affairs all round. Mote money would be put into oiroulation, and the worried business man would be ablo to get a good night's rest. * The idea is a capital one and perhaps if it succeeds the local Merchants' Association might copy tlie example. It is really amazing.what an enormous amount of money is locked up in petty book-debts even in Kelowna. All this represents just a toad for the merchant to carry. The goods he has sold he has had to pay for because wholesalers do not wait indefin'tely, i just this. Mr. -Mor goods for Mr. Slow- to Survive Single Torpedo Future American battleships will-be able to survive the explosion of a single torpedo against her hull, regardless of where thev are struck, in the opinion of United States navy experts. Experiments which have been in progress for more than a year, it is learned, have demonstrated that two or more torpedoes must find their mark." before ships sub-divided und protected as the new Amoricun craft can be sent to the bottom., The two super-dreadnoughts and two battle cruisers congress has been asked to authorize this year will be designed on this plan. Battleships Nob. 43 and 44, contracts for which have already been awarded to the Mare Island and New York navy yards have added interior construction resulting from the study made of the question of torpedo defense since the outbreak of the Europoan war. But later ships will havfe oven increased provision in this regard, Thc experiments are continuing and officials expect further information on the subject to be developed. Details of the work are regarded as confidential, but it is known that some expertB are at least hopeful that a type of construction will be involved whioh will greatly reduce the effectiveness of either mines or torpedoes ngainst heavy ships. The position i: chant buys some gay. Mr. Slowpay lakes the goods and eats them or wears thmu, or osh- erwise uses them as the case may be and then instead of paying for them he takes a trip to the coast or indulges in some other luxury he could well do without, and Mr. Merchant gets apologies instead of cash. Meanwhile Mr. Merchant's period of credit on the goods has expired and lie has had to dig up the cash, otherwise the wholesaler would shut off his supplies and end his career.

A certain regiment had been presented by a friend with a mascot in the fnrm of a magnificent mastiff. The presentation was made one day before the lvgiment, and the Colonel made a' little speech of thanks to the donor. After the speech' there was brief silence.

Tall and'thin, his dress, a n uch patched djbbeh, and a dirty skull cap, thero was round his nesk the string of ninety-two beads, that showtd a devoted follower of the MahdL- "Another blooming spy," said one of the privates guarding him. "He'll be shot tomorrow, T suppose." Uutahe never was, for the Arab spy Was Lord Kitchener of Khartum, lord Kitchener knows the east as no other living man does; knows it so well that he can Bppak half ith tongUes and dialects with case, and disguised himself so effectively as to be taken for an Arab. Lord Kitohener'B first job was in tho east, three yeirrs after he had entered tho Royal Knginoers. He then went out to survey western Palestine. Lord Kitchener's last position before becoming socretary of state for war was in the east, when he was consul- general in Egypt. In between those duties, save for the three years of the Boer war, Lord Kitchener has lived in the east. From Egypt to India, from Calcutta, to Cairo his name is one to conjure with. Ho haB talked trade and commerce in tho crowded bazaars of Bombay and sat cross-legged with Arab merchants in the Soudan, gravely, gravely discussing Soudanese politics. Th all the bazaars of Egypt and Soudan he is Bpoken of as "El lord" and he is regarded by the masses of the people almost as a god. Did he not smash tho Mahdi, th-; god of the People of the near east? > The cast looks upon Lord Kitchener as the greatest white man who has over been among them, greater even than "Chinese" Gordon, and he was a great man. And it is because of that that Lord Kitchener went east. He is the only man who knows the eastern mind and has the power to Bway it the way ho will.

Corner St. Paul Street and Cawston Avenue KELOWNA THUBSDAY, MARCH 9, 1916 KELOWNA RECORD PAGE THREE Burdens of War It is doubtful whether the world understands that Belgium, through her government and her people, has bome the chief financial burden of the work of relief. '"A fund of $3,000,000 was provided by a group of Rolgian t��an'.t- ers and given to the commission for relief in Belgium, to bo expended solely for the chartering of ships in which to bring wheat or flour from tfce Uni. ted States and other countries. The Belgian government han regularly appropriated $5,000 eaoh month to h�� expended by the commission in the purchase of grain, flour and other goods. This contribution is not an outright gift to the commission, although in effeot it accomplishes the purpose of a gift. The government of Belgium, ever since tho war began, has continued to pay the salaries and wagea of a very large number of government employees. Some of these employees have continued to perform the dirties for which they aro paid, such as burgomasters and other city and commercial officials, school teachers, etc., while some are idle because of the German occupation' of the country. The money for the payment of these employees is not delivered directly to them iby the government; in fact, tin government has no direct channel through which it could make payment, It is, therefore, paid over to the commission for relief in Belgium, which buys relief supplies with it. The supplies are sent into Belgium where they are distributed, not given away, but sold. Proceeds of the sale are paid to the communes, and the communal officers then pay the salaries and Wages of the government employees. The entire transaction is somewhat like the operation of a water wheel. The water drives the wheel in passing, but is not reduced in "quantity by the aer- vice which it gives.

J. E. GRIFFITH. Deputy Minister and Publia Works Engineer. Department of Public Works, Victoria, B. Q. 1st March, 1916. �� Wt The London Daily Chronicle publishes the story of a member oi the Bar- along'b crew, concerning the attack on the Nicosian and the sinking of a German submarine. "On August JIH'a at 2 p.m.," says the gunner, "we received a wireleeB call from the Nicosian, saying she was being chased by a German submarine. We accordingly proceeded full speed to her assistance. At 3 p.m., we sighted the Nicosian, which was being shelled by the submarine, while the crew was getting the Hfe boats out. "We got plenty of ammunition* ready on the poop and at 3.30 p.m., the marines took covey behind the bulwarks on the port Bide of the afterdeck with rifles. The gunners also took cover behind their guns. The excellent seamanship of our captain brought our ship up on the starboard of the Nicosian, the submarine being on the port side, so that for a few minutes we were hidden from the submarine's view. During that short interval we cleared for action, trained our guns, set the sights for 700 yards and hoisted the white ensign.- - '�� "As soon as we appeared around the bow of the Nicosian tho submarine fired one shot at us, which went wide. The marines then opened with tt well- aimed volley, which swept the deoka of tho submarine and seemed to demoralize the crew, for they immediately left their guns and rushed for the conning tower, several going overboard, but whether they were shot by rifle fire or dived over in panic, I canuot say. "We then opened fire with our port and stern guns, but the first shot hit short. However, it may havo hit the submarine beneath the waterline. The next shot hit the conning tower which appeared to be split in half, sending two men flying into the air. The next and succeeding shots all hit the sab- marine which gradually sank, everyone of the crew being either drowned or shot, and only a few parts of bodies and a large quantity of oil remaining on the surface. "Not only were their two guns of heavier oalibre than oflrs, but, in addition, they had several torpedo tubes whereas we could only get two guns to bear upon them. If they had stuck to their guns they would at least have stood a sporting chance, but apparently German submarines, although always ready to attack defenseless merchant ships and kill and maim1 their passengers and orews, have no stomach for fighting armed ships of his majesty's navy, even when the odds are in their favor.1' Chinese eggs are being sold in British Columbia as "Produce of U.S.A." the label on the cases state. This would lead the purohaser of eggs to believe that the eggs are from the poultry farms JTist across the line, whose rcputatian is well' known throughout the northwest. Those in close touch with the situation emphatically declare that these "so-called U.S.A. eggs" are none other than the little brown eggs from across the Pacific, which in some cases are mixed with the 'hen fruit' of the state to the south. Shooting al Close Targets With Heavy Artillery Remarkable performances in the way of close shooting upon the Gallipoli peninsula aro recorded of the New Zealand howitzers and field guns. The New Zealand official1 war correspondent, Malcolm Ross, reports that toward the end of August a major of infantry, telephoned, calling attention to the face that the New Zealand howitzers were dropping sheik into a Turkish trench only five yards in front of the trench occupied by his men. He therefore asked the battery to cease firing at that particular trench of the enemy. The reply was that the firing was being done purposely, inasmuch as the battery commander fully trusted Ids men and his guns evenwirh a margin of only fi.-. yards. Thu reason for thifl close fire wus because the infantrymen in the front trench had apparently run out of bombs and were being severely dealt with by the enemy. During the Turkish counter attack on the night of May 19tn, the New Zealand No. 2. battery of field artillery fired 511 rounds of shrapnel at Turkish trenches only 20 yards distant from the Australasian trenches. The shells shrieked continuously over the heads of the "Australasians crouching in their trenches, and throughout the night there was only one premature burst. As it was a dark night and the range only 1,000 yards, giving necessarily a~ very flat trajectory, "the feat" the correspondent says, "involved accurate and careful "laying" on the part of the gunners. The slightest error, such as the short setting of a fuse, would have been serious under th(* circumf- But that close shooting in the Dardanelles operation occasionally ac- cioentally worked havoc among the British forces is .shown by the fact that on the afternoon of August 8th, when Col. Malone, with a handful of New Zealand infantrymen, was actually within sight of the Narrows, having surmounted the Sari Bahr ridge, he was killed by shrapnel being fired by British warships at the heavy Turkish counter attack, and that there were numerous other casualties among the Ne.v Zealanders from the Rattle cause. -O���- Yesterday was Ash Wednesday, the first day of. T.ent. The regular annual meeting af the B. C. Entomological Society will be hold in Victoria, on March 11th. A number of interesting papers will be read. R. C.

All of the latter nationality have been sent to other camps some timo ago, according to advices received from Banff. The reason for this separation of the alien enemy nations at our alien camps is that the Austrians developed a habit of knocking the spots oiT of the fier- maiis when opportunity ai'oso. The Austrians blame the flerninns for draw ing or forcing them into the war and the endless discussions which spring Up in the internment eani| s often develop into pitched battles between Hermans anil Austrians.

Our thanks are due so Mr. Stevens, of thu Kelowna Sawmill Company for a pretty little verse and picture of a Scout camp, handsomely mounted on a stained board. Mr. Stevens also presented us with a photograph of, the troop leaving for camp last summer on the "Orchurd City." These little gifts will help to deoorate tho walls of our olub room, and we wish to tiiu.nk Mr. Stevens very much for his kindness. 'The conBus returns for the year ending Juno 30th, 1015, have just come to hand and show that out of 46 troops in the province Victoria 3rd, wins the Lieutenant-Governor's shield, with Chesterfield troop of North Vancouver second, and Kelowna third. A list of the twelve loading troops with the points obtained by each is appended herewith. We ore proud of the high place in the list which we occupy but hope that next year w0 shall bo still higher. Wo are afraid that the reason that wo have not obtained more points is because we have too few Bocond and first class scouts in the troop, and our proficiency badges are distributed amongst so few.' Wa have 41 badges distributed amongst nine scouts, and while we must congratulate these nine, still there are, 0r were at the close of the census returns, thirty-six scouts without any budges at all. This of course tells against us. According to the returns Viotoria third troop has B membership of 46, with 9 patrols, 37 second class and 5 first cluss scouts. Also they have 146 proficiency badges held by 34 scouts, 2 King's.scouts, 0 aU round cords (A) and 1 all round con} (11); Chesterfield has a membership of 24, with 4 patrols, 12 second and 19 first class scouts. Also 75 proficienoy badges held by 19 scouts, 3 King's scouts, 7 all round cords (A), and 1 all round cord (B); Kelowna has (as at June 30th last) a membership of 45, with 5 patrols, 16 second and 4 first class scouts. We hold proficienoy badges as set out above, and have 2 King's scouts, 4 all round oords (A) and 1 modal of merit, that held by second It. Thayer. We aro tho only troop in the province with this latter distinction. Numerically we are the fourth largest. We only have until June 30th next for this year's competition, and while we have grown much stronger in numbers since June 30th last year, hold a few more badges, have 1 moro King's scout, 1 all round cord (B) and have 7 patrols instead of 5, still wo must do muoh more if wo wish to pull down Victoria 3rd troop from their proud place at the top of tho ladder. Chesterfield troop is making a strong effort to do so, and we noticed just the other day that soveral of their scouts had successfully passed their first class testa. We congratulate our sister troop Nar- amata on her achievement in tying with Grandview troop of. V��nooucer for eleventh plaoe. Tho twelve leading troops in the contest for the Lieutenant-Governor's wore as follows: Victoria 111 86.2 Vancouver 4 (Chesterfield) .. . 68.1 Kelowna , 56.8 Vancouver 11 (Fairview) 52.2 Kamloops 47.7 New Westminster 39.T Mission 363 Cumberland 31.8 Bosodalo 30.7 Vancouver 1 (Grnndview) . . . 92.7 Naramata 22.T Vancouver 111 (Seymour) 21.6 Lectures on Vexed Question In his lecture on a reoent Tuesday evening in the Rutland Inew school assembly hall while speaking on the subject of the ".Sabbath" Evangelist E. R. Potter told of how a young Seventh-day AdventiBt minister was criticised by a noted judge as follows: "Now, pastor, I have .you just where I want you" said a judge of one of the stato'a supremo courts, as he took a seat Inside a young Seventh-day Ad- ventist in a railway train. "I want you to toll me why you, and the people you represent observe Saturday instead of Sunday -." the Sabbath." Replying that he would bo v.-ry happy to do bo the minister u\ oned hia Bible to the twentieth e'niptdr ol Exodus und read-the fourth oommhiid- ment and then said, "There, that to the first reason I will glvs vcu why wo keep tho seventh day instead of the first. God in his law commands us to do so. And the second reason i��v- ���" and he began turning to another passage of Scripture when the Judge interrupted him 'saying, "Please lot me take your Bible." Hi' r.ad the com- mandmonit over very slowly several times to himself nnd then said: "In ono respect you remind me ol an attorney I once knew who hud a case to defend in court. As frequently as the case was culled he would manage in some way to get it postponed. At last the patience of the court Was exhausted, and tho judge asked the attorney why he usked for postponement, saying he had had ample timo to prepare his case, and the opposing parties were anxious for the trial. The attorney replied that there was an important witness that it was necessary for him to havo whom ho could' not then obtain. The judge earnestly ask- cd whore the witness.was and why he did not have him there. The attorney replied that there were several reasons why he was not, present. The Hrat was that he was dead, and the second was "Well, hold on/' Buid * ithe judge, "If the man iB dead, that ia sufficient reason why ho is not here. We do not care to hear your second reason." Then the judge fixing his' pbrcing eye on the minister said: "I ask you for your reasons for keeping the seventh day, or Saturday for the fcab* bath, and iu roply you turn and read a law of God himself, spoken by his own voice, and chiseled by his own hand upon tho granito quarried from the rock-ribbed, side of Sinai. And now you propose to give a second reason. My young friend uo man who believes God, or God's word, ever ought to seek a second reason. Think of it. In the bosom of the only law that God ever gave his creatures, that law which is justly regarded, not only as the law, but, the constitution from which aU the legislation oi God proceeded in that law' he telle all His creatures t0 keep tho Beventh day or Saturday, as the Sabbath. I repeat that no one who believes God, or His word can escape from your conclusions, and no second reason is admissible." UNIQUE ADVERTISING One must admire the candour of the Winnipeg clothing merchant in whose advertisement the following appeared. He takes the public right into his confidence, and it is to be hoped that ho was duly rewarded for honestly confessing whait some merchants are only too anxious to conceal. "There are always a lot of odds and ends around u store that must bo gotten rid of," BayB this candid ftdver- I've marked down every article in the money to carry over any dead stock. Jive marked down every article in tho store so it'll move, and the bummer tho article tho deeper the cut. I've heard it said that there's a suoker born every minute; woll I need lots of these people to get rid of Borne of the things 1 have here. $2 caps for a dime���10 cents, good chinchilla $2 caps���but, the oolor looks like -peculiar, so a dime will rid me of them. Also $1.25 mufflers, cerise ones, they've been here since the year one. 1 don't think they are worth a nickel aplooe so I'll sell them three for a dime. I hope they sell. I'm going to let you in on something cheap and appropriate for this weather���nice warm red neokties, and some good Irish green ones, too, 75 oent ones.

He must have seen this war coming," and knew that dyes would be scarce, and he Biire did stock up." And bo on for more than a quarter of a page. _0 Tho modem merchant pondered Upon tho ways of men Who take as their example The spider in his den, "Let others, if they will," quoth he, "Lie low and wait for Hies, In a dingy, cob-webbed corner.
