B.C. W VOL. X. NO. 30. KELOWNA BRITISH COLUMBIA, THURSDAY, JUNE 13, 1918.-4 PAGES $130 Per Annum Council Meeting is Adjourned to Thursday There was a brief meeting of the city council Monday evening, but after transacting a few items of routine business it was found necessary to adjourn until Thursday evening in order to afford time for the various heads of departments to complete their estimates as a basis for the striking of a rate of taxes for the current year. The Fire Brigade wrote recommending the appointment of Fred Gore, a returned soldier, as driver of lhe fire truck, which appointment was duly confirmed by resolution. A resolution submitted by the city of. London, Ont., asking the government to provide or assist in providing, insurance for soldiers on overseas service along the lines of that adopted in the United States, was laid on the table. The B.C. Evaporators asked permission to place weigh scales on the road allowance of Cawston avenue in front of their platform. Thia was granted on the usual conditions. The monthly report of the Chief of Police contained mention of two cases only brought before the magistrate, one an Italian for stealing a bicycle, and the other that of an insane Chinaman who had attempted suicide by jumping from a window. The former-was taken to Kamloops for two months and the latter handed over to the Provincial Hospital for Insane at New Westminster. The monthly tests of dairy milk were as follows: D. C. Middleton, 4.09; J. Birtch, 3.09; and Norman Day, 3.04. Alderman Duggan reported that Mr. Symonds had found it necessary to resign his nosition aa fireman at the Power House, owing to his wounds having- reopened. He had appointed W. A. Newton to this position on the understanding that should his services prove satisfactory, he would be placed on the power-house permanent staff. This was approved by the council. Aid. Mantle submitted samples of hard rock which had been crushed by the rock crusher. The rock was being obtained from a recently opened bed of gravel on the Guisachan property, a promised to make very good road material. He stated that it was his intention to have a quantity of such rock crushed and placed in heaps in convenient locations in the city to be used in repairing the streets in the Fall. This plan met with the council's approval. The matter of tethering horses along the road 'sides was again discussed, Further complaints had been received and it was decided to instruct the police to strictly enforce the provisions of the by-law. The meeting was adjourned until Thursday evening. Clouds Spoilt Eclipse The eclipse of the sun came off according to schedule on Saturday afternoon, but the effect was somewhat spoiled by the cloudy state of the sky. At intervals, however, during the progress of the moon's shadow across the orb of day, fairly good glimpses could be obtained, and many were the smoked glasses and other devices levelled in that direction. At the point of greatest eclipse ���about ninety per cent, here���the thin crescent of what was left of the sun could be seen very plainly, and in its curious light, which was altogether different from broad daylight, objects presented rather a wierd and ghostly appearance. Twilight reigned for a brief space, and then the sun came out again brighter than ever it seemed. The case of the two Chinamen Lee Sing and Lee Tuey, who were arrested in -connection with the shooting affair in Chinatown during January, came up for trial at the assizes laat week before Chief Justice Hunter. The case was a long drawn out one owing to the large number of witnesses brought up and after an inquiry of several days the prisoners were dismissed, the charge of attempted murder being unsustained. List of Subscribers to Patriotic Fund Kelowna haa received from the provincial branch ot the Canadian Patriotic Fund to date, $34,897.45, and has subscribed $10,345.50. During the four months ending April 30th, the sum of $4,906.13 has been disbursed among 66 families comprising 199 individuals so that the average monthly grant for each family - of 3.15 units, has been $18.58 or $6 per capita. Donations and subscriptions amounted to $1,659.53. Several new subscribers are required to take the place of those recently called up under the -Military Service Act. The authorities will be greatly obliged if patriotic citizens, willing to fill these gaps, will hand in their names to the secretary or to any member of the local committee. Now that the government thas definitely decided lo take over the administration of this fund at the end of the financial year, there is no need for anyone to withhold their active support on the ground of forcing the government's hand. Following are the subscriptions, donations proceeds of entertainments, &c, received by the local branch of the Fund during the four months ending on April 30th, 1918: ��� Alsgard, M A l.oo Andison, H ...'..\". l2.oo Arbuckle, H W 2.oo Bailey, E.

Two of the boys were riding one horse which, going at! top speed, stumbled and fell near Dr. Boyce's house. Norman Haynes was one of the riders and he pitched forward \"striking his head with such force as to render him'uncontcious. 1 he doctor was summoned and he was taken to hospital, being able to gojhome the next day though badly bruised. Cbautauqua Will Be Repeated Next Year With a grand closing concert by the Ladies' Festival Orchestra, six very talented lady entertainers, the six-day Chautauqua came to an end Tuesday evening. Notwithstanding the controversy which has been going on during the week regarding the Chautauqua, the tent has been filled at nearly every meeting. There can be no gainsaying the fact that the whole aeries of programmes have been good throughout, and whatever criticisms may be made against the coming of the Chautauqu, it has been generally admitted that full value is given for the money it costs. Both music and lectures have been of a veiy high order.\" The Fillion Concert Party, Wit- epskie's Orchestra, Miss Emily Waterman, Miss Olive McCormick, Mr. and Mrs. Ruthven MacDonald and lastly the Ladies' Festival Orchestra, all provided high-class musicians and entertainers, and though, of course, not all of equal merit and importance, furnished a variety which evidently pleased all who attended. For those who love the drama, the Clare Vaughan Wales Players, Friday afternoon and evening, furnished a good entertainment, s; Major G. W. Kerby was the first of the lecturers, Thursday afternoon, and gave a powerful patriotic address on the war and its aims. Dr. Whitfield Rav, in the evening, gave a remarkably instructive and enlightening account of his travels in the wilds of South America, revealing many new and startling facts about that unknown country. Dr.'Rader, who spoke Friday, had been the subject of some stupid and unjustifiable rumors regarding his loyalty in the war, rumors however which he speedily refuted. He is a fluent speaker, and a clear thinker, and his talk on the training, environment, .and character building which go to the making of a real man will long be remembered. Dr. W. J. Hindley lectured on the \"Test of the West,\" sketching the development and probable future course of the Canadian West. Dr. J. Sherman Wallace handled some of the problems which face modern civilization in a masterly and eloquent manner, emphasizing particularly the need of a thoroughly efficient and easily-accessible systerr of higher education. Only one item of the programme failed to materialize, and that was owing to the unavoidable detention in Ottawa of H. W. Wood, president of the Canadian Council of Agriculture, and of the United Farmers of Alberta, who had been scheduled to speak to farmers on \"Democratic Organization.\" Ithaabaen arranged, however, for him to be here in tha course of a few weeks to fulfil the engagement at a special meeting. Season ticket holders should therefore retain their tickets until then. In hia absence Serg. Bowker, a returned soldier, from Calgary, gave a talk on his experiences \"over there.\" During the course of the Chautauqua a vote was taken which made it abundantly clear that it was the strong desire of the public that the event should be repeated next summer, though it ia possible that a much larger committee will be required to get behind the movement before any further contract is signed. It is manifestly unfair to expect any small body of citizens to shoulder all the burden and responsibility. The Fire Brigade was called out about 7.30 last Sunday morning, to an outbreak of fire.at the rear of an empty house on Abbott street. From some unexplained cause a number bt outbuildings were discovered to be ablaze, and although there was danger for a time of other buildings in the vicinity becoming involved the fire was extinguished with little loss. For the purpose of securing data relating to crop areas and numbers of livestock in the province as in June, 1913, card schedules have been mailed to every farmer in the province who name appears on the last provincial voters' list. These lists do not include all farmers, and as it is desirable that all possible be included-in the total returns, supplies of the cards have been sent to the secretary of the local Farmers' Institute and can be obtained from him. Owing to the seriousness of the food situation the fullest possible information is desirable. Preparations Made for Registration Day Preparations are now being perfected for the registration of the man and woman power of Canada on Saturday, June 22nd. For thia district, which includes all on this side cf the lake from Okanagan Centre down, Magistrate E. C. Weddell has been appointed deputy registrar, and to him falls the duty of appointing other deputies to take charge of the various j outlying districts. The registration centres have not yet been finally fixed but in most cases they will be the district school-houses. There may be several places in Kelowna where registration can be carried out, but all this will be announced definitely in ample time. So far for the city the following have been appointed: Rev. E. D. Braden, Messrs L. V. Rogers, J. R. Beale, W. J. Mantle and J.Gordon ; for Ellison, Mr. Thos. Bulman; for Rutland, Rev. T. Griffiths; for the Belgo and Ioe Rich Canyon, Mr. ��. M. Carruthers ; for the K.L.O., Mr. W. C. Spencer; Okanagan Mission W. D. Walker; Okanagan Centre and Wood's Lake, Glenmore and Benvoulin registrars are still to be appointed. Every person over the age of 16 years is required to fill in a registration card on or before June 22nd. There is a separate card for males and females, and each contains some fourteen or fifteen questions which must be truthfully answered. The offices will be open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. It is desirable that everyone should realize the importance of complying with the order, for in addition to lhe heavy penalties provided for refusal or neglect to register, the person without a registration certificate after the date provided will be placed in a very embarrassing position. He can not travel by train, stay at any hotel, follow his regular occupation���in fact, even if he or she is not arrested at once, things will be pretty difficult. Elsewhere in this issue will be found a fascimile of the card to be filled in by females. Public School Notes Mr. J. Ball left last week-end for a holiday trip to the coast. Edited by Principal Gordon In a town like Kelowna which has no public library the importance of a school library can scarcely be over-estimated. Such good use has been made of the librarv during the past year that every effort should be made-to increase the number of volumes. The children have answered an appeal to give books to the library. Thut forty volumes have been added. But I feel sure that there are many idle books in the home* of Kelowna that could do good service in the school library, and I v/ould ask anyone who has such books and who is willing to part with them to let me know in some way and they will be called for. We owe it as a duty to our children to cultivate a taste for good, wholesome literature. Mrs. R. B. Kerr has donated a wonderful collection of local flora to the school. The specimens are oil dried and mounted with the greatest care and enclosed in special bindings made by Mrs. Kerr. The popular names and the scientific classification are neatly indicated on the mounts. The gift will be of the greatest use in assisting both teachers and pupils to identify specimens. We are very fortunate to have received such a useful gift. When you visit the school ask to see this collection. We have made a beginning with a school museum. There is a collection of butterflies donated by Private Tate, a collection of sea shells from Mr. Stockwell and a specimen of a rattler snake from Mr. Willits. Perhaps when it becomes known that we have such a museum people will be encouraged to send us more. The children make small collections of their own in connection with their nature study ; but, of course, there are some things they cannot collect, and we like to have well-arranged collections to show them, for it is always important for them to see something better than they can make themselves. The stimulus of ideals is one of the greatest forces in education. The following is the attendance BavisoD-LficWe Wedding The marriage took place yesterday at Knox church, at 10.30 a.m.. of Capt. Rufus Lamont Davison, lo Mias Date Leckie, eldest daughter of Mr. D. Leckie, of Kelowna. Capt. Davison, who it a dentist in civilian life, it at present located at the Hastings Park Camp, at Vancouver. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. E. D. Braden, the church being beautifully decorated with flowers by friends. The bride, who wat given away by her father, wat attended by, her tinter Mitt Marjory Leckie, at bridesmaid, while Mr. D'Arcy- Hinkton performed the dutiet of bett man. Mr. H. Tod Boyd played the \"Wedding March\" from Lohengrin, and at the conclusion of the ceremony Mrt. J. N. Thompton rendered \"Because.\" After a very quiet luncheon at the house, the bride and groom motored to Vernon taking train there for Vancouver. A number of local members of the Oddfellows and. Rebekah Lodges went down to Penticton this week to attend the meeting of the Grand Lodge whieh wat being held there.

Schools have been established bv -the department and arrangements made with private institutions throughout the province wherein twenty-six vocations are taught. An industrial survey of the province is under way end opportunities in upwards of 70 different trades and occupations have been opened up eo far whereby men may take vocational training in any trade are otsured of steady employment after the completion of their couraee. There have been placed up to the preeent in Vancouver alone, approximately 50 men in industries who ere learning tradea. In the schools upwards of fifty men are receiving instructions. The department paya all tuition feeeand the Dominion government hae provided a tcale of allowances for all men undergoing training. If it ie necessary for men to come from the interior to the coast for training, transportation it paid. The administrative andinttructionalstaff of ths vocational department it composed wherever possible of returned men at it ie understood by the heade that thoee men that have ohared the dengera and hardshipa of campaigning in the world are better fitted to help and sympathize with return men.

June II, 1918 ORDERS by command for week ending June 22, 1918. DUTIES: Orderly patrol for week, Otters ; next for duty, the Beavers. PARADES: The combined troop will parade at the club room on Wednesday, June 19, at 7.15 p.m. In last week's column there were two typographical errors. In signalling \"T\" is given as 'Toe\" not \"Toe.\" Also in connection with the camp, each patrol will in turn be respc nsible for the evening camp five \"stories\" not \"stones.\" It is necessary for us to know at once who is going to attend camp this vear. It is quite possible that those who_ are doing \"Soldiers of the Soil\" work now will be able to attend, if not for all, at least a part of the camp, but where their employers find it impossible to let them off, that will be recognized aB a legitimate reason for non-attendance. At the time we go to camp everything has been planted and has reached the final growing stage before the harvest. There will be a Court of Honour at tl.e scoul master's office on Friday of this week at 7.30 p.m. to discuss camp details, such as fees etc. Majoi Leduc of the B C. Horse, Vernon, liaa very kindly consented to loan us some bell tents. Sam, who has been our camp cook for the last two years ii now at Keremeos, so it is not likely that we shall have him with us this year. We should like very much to have some ex- army cook with us, who could give some useful lessons to the scouls in cooking. We shall be very glad to have suggestions at any time from any scout as to anything which might help to make this year's camp a better success than ever, a s ��� We wish to thank Mr. A. R. Drysdale very much indeed for a presentation of books, as a handsome addition to our library. . A great many boys have passed through our troop, and perhaps through our own fault chiefly in not rendering accounts regularly, have lelt the troop, still owing arrears of subscriptions, We are therelore sending the following letter to several old scouts, whose addresses we know :��� \"' A Scout's Honour is to be trusted.' We find on our books that at the time you left the troop you owed for subscriptions $ . We are not making any reflections on vou aa far aa the past is concerned because we are not sure that you ever received any statement of your account. But as far as the future is concerned, we leave it to your understanding of the above Scout Law which you promised to observe when you became a scout, and ask you to earnestly think over it. Unless we hear from you within two weeks from this date, we shall take it that you do not intend to pay the above sum, and shall wipe the same off our books as a bad debt. If you would like particulars as to how the sum is reached, or would like to pay it off by instalments, commencing now or at tome later date, please let us hear from vou at once. Cuba preparing for the First Star Test will meet at the cub room on Saturday, at 2 o'clock. Each cub will bring a short piece of Tope or cord (not string) for knot- tying, and if possible, a tennis ball. o Tbe patriotic carnival on July 6th is going to be a huge success, The various committees are meeting with encouragement and assistance on every side. The baby show will prove a unique attraction. Special prizes for this are being donated by Mr. McEwan photographer. The fancy dress parade starting from Knox church led by bagpipes and drums, will march to the park. Prizes for the best costumes are bring donated by photographers Messrs. Willis 6c Stocks. The Royal Air Forcet will not train their cadets or have a flying school in Texas next winter, but will carry on their winter training in Canada. Huts and suitable winter quarters for the flyers and mechanics will be arranged and a new Armament school at Hamilton with accommodation for 450 cadets will be opened shortly.

In Nova Scotia it was dry and almost too warm during the greater part of Mav, but heavy rains occurred in the latter part of the month followed by cooler weather. A slight frost occurred in the Annapolis valley on the 26th, but apparently little damage was done. Conditions in B.C. were favorable until May 24, when a Jvery heavy frost struck the coast and inland valleys. Tomatoes were particularly affected and strawberries were also seriously hurt. As far as can be judged at the present time, the injury to apples and pears was not so serious as to other fruits. Damage is reported to stone fruits in certain districts. 1 he report states that the Nova Scotia crop of apples will probably fall considerably below that of 1917, while that in Ontario pro mises to gteatly exceed last year's. In spite of the frost it is quite pos- sible that the total output of apples in B.C. will equal that of last year, diving to the large number of trees just coming into bearing. Reports from the Annapolis valley are not generally favorable and the trees are blooming ten days later than latt year in Prince Edward Island The crop in Quebec ia likelv to be less than laat year. Prospects in New Brunswick appear favor able. BURNE & WEDDELL Barrister, Solicitors and Notaries Public, E. G. Weddell. - John P. Burne. KBLOWNA B.C. R. B.

Bishop of Kootenay Visits Kelowna The Bishop of Kootenay, as was announced last week, visited this parish on Sunday last. He officiated at the early and also at the midday service at St. Andrew's, Okanagan Mission. The subject of his sermon at the latter service, \"The Brotherhood of Man,\" was listened to by an attentive and appreciative congregation. After Evensong at the parish church, the bishop dedicated two war memorial tablets. The unveil ing of the memorials was perform ed by Capt. W. R. Barlee. After the closing prayers the congregation sang the National Anthem. Thi bishop then confirmed a class of boys presented by the archdeacon In his address to the candidates, he exhorted them to take as their model in life, Saint Barnabas who was \"a good man and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith.\" After the blessing the large congregation dispersed deeply impressed with the solemnity of the services. The bishop, who was the guest of Mr DuMoulin on Sunday night, left for Vernon on Monday morning. Inscriptions on the memorial tablets:��� In Memory of Pte. Roland F. H.

Dear Sir,���Now thet the Chautauqua is over and there is no fear of influencing adversely the receipts, 1 would like to express my surprise that local people should be tumbling over each other in their rush to guarantee the expenses of this travelling show, and can give such faint support to local organizationa whose services are devoted almost entirely to producing funds for local purposes and war funds, which.are so badly needed, i do not say that the entertainments have not been fully worth the money paid, but it appears to me ridiculous that this concern which is purely a business show should ask that its expenses should be guaranteed and we should fall for it, when all other variety shows come here on their own merits. It is, of course, only right that we should be kind to the \"strangers within our gates,\" but they should not make an annual trip to lift $1400 and impoverish the district to this extent in .these times. II only these generous guarantors would give their guarantee in support of, say, Mr. Boyd's choir of fifty, much good might be done for the Red Cross, C. P. Fund, Prisoners of War, &c, but there is a strange lack of loyalty to the community in this city. I regard it as' quite a reflection on us that no word of thanks even (save from his choir), has to my knowledge been tendered to Mr. Bcyd for the many hours of arduous labor that he gave to produce the concert of April 16th last. It seems that because he lives in our midst he is expected to give us his services gratis. We forget that music is his profession and if we wish his services his fees should be guaranteed together with any expenses of sheet music required. Fourteen hundred dollars would have gone a great way in providing concerts for us and would have given us music lovers far more practical education than many weeks of Chautauqua. Chautauqua lectures mav be read in book form. The above might apply to Mr. Drury Pryce or any other whom marked ability places in the front rank. It is to be hoped that when the musical season re-opens in the fall some endeavor will be made to put matters on a proper just footing and guarantors will be ready to give their support to Mr. Prvce and his orchestra; Mr. Boyd and his choir of fifty voices. Thanking you for the courtesy of your apace, Mr. Editor, I am, yours faithfully, SYDNEY H. OLD, Sec. Kelowna Orchestra. WHAT IS A LAWFUL FENCE ? The Editor of The Kelowna Record. Dear Sir,���In your issue of June 6th, 1918, 1 notice a letter from the Dept. of Agriculture to Mr. L. E. Taylor which itatea that\" In the event of cattle straying into lands unprotected by a lawful fence ao denned to be lawful as aforesaid, no trespass shall be deemed to have been committed.\" Would you please explain fully in your next issue or as soon as possible, what a legal fence is in B.C. Yours truly. 'P. H. BENSON. Glenmore. The following definition of a lawful fence is provided by an amendment in 1914 of the Trespass Act :��� I.
