Jones, the Liberal-Uonaurvr.il*/o candidate was undoubtedly thi) largest on reoord, in spite ol tbe rn,in 'winch poured down most of the evening. The ohair was taken by Mr. ���'. W. McMillan, and the keenest intero-it was displayed throughout in the remarks of the speakers. ill. 0�� Weddell opened the ia'\ .ing with an interesting historical < nt'iad of the policies of the Liberal-1'uus. r- vative party since the reins *f l/ovciii ment were placed in their han-is, a,.d the progress and development of the province under their regime, lie t'.rn- trasted their program at the pivyont time with the entire absence of any policy on the part of tbe Libtml party, who contented themselves with merely destructive criticism. Mayor Jones was enthudi mtio.dly received when he arose to addwss the audience, and his comprehensive ?xd aa& u'ul lmmi.ing of the problems lie- fore the government at the }<>*cMjnt moment' showed a very close acqi.a.ii: tance with these questions. Mr. Jones dealt first with tlio educational development of the I is tact which had been contributed to hugely by the provision of several fiae new schools, the ones in Rutland aud Kelowna being notable examples. A turn in the neighborhood of $100,UU0 hnd been expended in the immediate dis trict in schools during the past i-i-,-.. teen months. Touching upon the muoh criticised financial position of the pxovinco Mr Jones compared the per capita aebt of the province with its immeuse sources, with the per capita debt of other provinces aud .if the various municipalities, shewing a considerable diference in iu\or of the province in spite of tbo temporary depression through whhh we were passing. The government's railway policy waB also dealt with resulting in the opening up of vaBt tracts of fertile lands. The land question, and finally the agricultural Aid Bill came in for very comprohensiv. treatment. Hr. Jones having' "'acts and figures available, especially iu regard to the former which enaoled him to dispose of many of the va<*ue criticisms which were being levelled tgui-ist it. It wub very apparent that Mr. Jones address had made a deep imoross-on apon all present, and the mutinuM were not slow to show their unthuiias- tic approval as he resumed his sent. Mr. Thos. Bulman also addre*w 11 lie meeting, dealing from personal experience with many of the more intimate problems of the district, 'ihe selection of a representative was not so much a matter of politics ua a question of selecting a man oM-tdiUof dealing with the peculiar problems cf the district. Some questions were aaked at tho close of the meeting relative to taxation matters, some instances being given of inequitable assessment. In replying Mr. Jones said such matters oame .within the scope of the provincial assessor, who held a court of revision twice a year. Everyon;, of course, believed in equitable taxation, and all grievances ahould b> ut once brought before the proper official, who was bound under the law to remedy them. Or if satisfaction could not be obtained in that way th<n, an appeal could be made to the nipreme court. Laws were already in loiOQ for giving fair and equitable taxation and also providing a means ot settling disputes.

Some Features of the Water Act Much important work lias boon i.u- compliehed during the oast yew? or two by the provincial Water Brunch, in the way of Btraight&niug out mo tangle of irrigation mutters in me Okunagun and elsewhere, iieforo ine establishment of this branch ol ihe Department of Lands, the water m- cor.is of the province from Jack i.f c't- finite information in the hauls of the government, were becoming m-Te nnd more involved and conflicting, and it was felt that accurate details o�� ull water available for irrigation, und a full and complete record oE all cluinu must be obtuined before legislation could be made effective. The urgency of legislation to regulate the storim? and distribution of so vital u necessity as water had long been reuli/id, but the preliminnry surveying und shifting of claims to water root-Is has proved a big undertaking. In furtherance of the work th-j water commission sat in Kelowna last week to hear claims from the west side of the lake, and taking advantage of this a representative of th,- tte- cord waited upon Mr. Wm. Young, the comptroller of Water Rights ani elicited many intoroBting ftu-tu regarding the Wator Act and recent ameiuim inla theroto. The chief leature of tho Water Aot amendment of 1914 vv.is the nrov eion of co-operation in irrigation. The first feature that appears cf primary importance is the lioHhitf of the water to beneficial ���mi. hiw.ficjal use comprises three features���-iiUM.ty of wuter, rotation of use where tw< or three or more people aro intorivced in the creok and oartijular crops (o be grown. Prior to 1914 it was impossible lq bring a small community of users together in such a way that :l would be to their own and to tho public interest. Under this feature iu ics pect to beneficial uso tho riot -<f Wl4 provides for the appointment *f walui bailiffs who have all the powui's under the Police and Prison Regulation Aot to enforce such system of rotation as would be acceptable to ihe inaji i ay of users as bringing about ihs great est and best use of tho watar. This section of the Act has been made use of now in ulmc.si. oVOry Vsl- loy,- where irrigation is practiced and where some users ob]jj;ei in the beginning, the outcome proved so satisfactory as to cause wonderment as to why it had never been tried beforo. As a matter of fact the principle is not new���it is over 2000 years old, and with the ancients the Water Owl- ill's word was law. In connection with the other pio- visions of the Act that have i vo.ea of great benefit, those of particular note are the provisions for ih.- "Water Users' Community" the "MJ.ual Water Company" the "Land luI Water Companies" and the "Irritation Corporations." The first mentioned of these provides for the forming of a partnership of one half dozen or more farmers who will agree with one another us to a partnership to co-operate with the upkeep of that portion ot the pystein that may be common to all, a no in the supervision of equitable dbtiibu- tion of water, tho liability in each instance being limited to the benefit received. The Water Ubots' Community provisions have been taken advautago of now in a number of places and with excellent satisfaction. It has meant co-operation, with scarcely tin* expenditure of a dollar, on a basis safe and satisfactory for all. The Mutual Water Company is designed to meet tho roquiromerits of two or more owners of lands wb(�� *ich to acquire a license for conveying purpose*, eaoh owner of course !winp a water right owner, The ooratmv i:. incorporated under the Joint Stock Companies Act, and thc shams hour the same relation to the land thut the Water License does; i.e.- that if m.-v-j owner soils out tho purchaser hf->m into his shoes in respect to the con veying of the license. Now the Land and Wator Company in designed for the benefit of those who undertake th* exploitation of anv larffe portion of Und. In :he past, the organisation of land companies. has tice in several portions of the United ��� .States. The ultimate outcome, in but very few cases of the &\ a ate land und water companies in tho United States has not been suo'soisful. As a result, tho conclusion .uuved :ii by those who have made a careful study of land exploitation is I hut tho separate company idea is wrong, fend bearing iu mind tho situation ea it exists in 11. C, today, the Water .Act of 1914 does not permit of the irrigation company being formed sejnirate from the land eompuny. Tho Act provides that as the Land and Water Company soils it�� laud each purchaser shares in thu water conveying system aB the land in takon up uud when such timo arrives and tho water users aro in control the (Vol provides for the "Mottles' Asso- ���iation" under which rules und regulations respecting the mauugtmumt ol the system ure provided. Now, coming to tho final p��4>yis.0U ���the Irrigation Corporation, this is designed to enable those who had takon land up under tho existing r.uidi- tioiis, i.e.- tho separute land art! water compnnies, to creuto a water municipality undor which the works oould l>o acquired. The un-iutd ian.l remaining in tho titln of tho company with that nlready sold will bo as'.PSSOu to such an extent to provide f- r interest-! maintenance und .such (-iher charges us suffice to cover tho trial indebtedness. It wns concluded that os the set Is, the conditions therein would give every wuter user thc opportunity of be- curing u clour conception of just what he was going into. Thc work of the Water Brandt, particularly under the Board *)* [t��\obligation, in this respect is thorough in the extreme and tho orelimmury investigation curried out by Ui.-m far any proposed corporation Involves thorough investigation of the water available, reservoir po8sibiUti&, cJmm if.cution of land, extent of Indebtedness complete to existing wat-v license holders who may come wUUin the boundaries of tho proposed district, and in fact all inlor.ivition necessary for the proper summing un of the proposal, so that tl^s-3 interested may see what they ato goiiij! into. In this respect it is of intetroat to state that recently in the vbinity of Kelowna a Water Corporation vas proposed. The land olasaH'.oaM.-n showed that there wns rot. wiier enough flowing from thc creek to cover an adequate supply for every out within the boundaries. The complete survey showed whnt the oossibili'.y ->f storage was and an exiamination ot the system showed'to what extent it was permanent and whdt proportion must be renewed. Tho facts thus laid out were placK1, before the trustees nnd owners <;I the system by tho board, and uttoition drawn to the fact that a cointi��.'..u reconsideration of the distriot ��*��� ouhl havo to be made before a corporation could bo launched wherein payments per ucre in respect of the three ti.iuls would be well within reason. In other words it was pointed out that the total charge per acre was the crux of the problem and that reorgauusjtlion must be of such a nature as would bring such within BatisUot'H'y limits. As one studies this feature cf tho Water Act it becomes moro nnd mora obvious that the one who has Hist consideration under the Irrigation Corporation is the man who is on the land and using the water. Complaint has been made that the government has been slow in thoir efforts to solve the water problems of the Okanagan. It is tho fault ol tno department that moro publicity has not been given as to what ha^ I wen dono from time to time. Suoh r formation however is riven in tho annual report, a copy of which can always bo obtained from the government. Briefly the policy of the depart ment since its reorganization in tho summer of 1912 has been to survey every creek in tho Okanagan with a view to ascertaining what tho storage portabilities were and how much land could bo safely developed from c-teb. -reek. This work of survey investigation has progressed to such an extent that Naramutu'n reservoir possibilities Lave been determined, the situation beck of Summerland dealt with to a llir*��) extent, Westbank Hearing complo'.ion, Peachland to be immediately taken up, Mill, Scotty and Mission creeks, near Kelowna disposed of. and ar rangements are now in Laud io continue this work throughout the present season. The duty of the water is ol primal y importance and careful land classification is also necessary. This woia has been completed for IJry and (.Jlemuoto Valleys, and it is proposed i o continue it for other areas iu .the vicinity of Kolowna. This has taken time, but inasmuch as it is tho basis of the successful development of the valley it is all tho more important that it should be done thoroughly. Much has been said of the Irrigation company recently, and the possibilities of liquidation, etc., but as very conflicting representations lmv*; beon mado to the department in tke early months of the year it was cousidered that tho only way that a clear cut idea of the situation could he otitain- ed was by a Royal Commission. Kach district will be dealt with on its merits and all information invoking the companies and also ib-> companies, standing will be taken into careful account. If it is seen that the company is in a hopeless condition, tho proper thing obviously would Into advise the debenture hoidnrs and protection undertaken on tho other hand for the water users.

Klo with ieparate water comoauios ���. been followed because of similar trai-1 vey work of the department ia the Editor Kolowna Record.- Dear Sir.���In order to keep my promise made in my previous Utter, I will attempt to describe my method of growing early cucuuujls and cant: uloupes. Wo plant thc seed ul ou', April U-'lh in the flats, as described for, planting tomato seed, except that, in litis fuse wo uso pure suud, as wo find W# |*ol better plants by using the .mud. As soon as the plants are weil up, wo transplant them into other trays, using ordinary soil at this time, spacing the plants about two inohes apui L either way. Thoy aro kept here until tho tomato plants are planted in lhe field, which gives us plenty of cni| t.y trays, also greenhouse aud coluiume space, in which to develop the cucumber and cantalopue plants. ?-*r this last planting we grow 8 or 10 plants to a tray. The land on which these are to be grown should be on-pared aom.i Lira-: in advance of the setting. It. should bo fairly well enriched, as these crops require much more fertility thaa is the case with tomatoes. Wo attempt to get tho plants hardened off, before -hey nre it ���moved to thc field, by giving frequent uad thorough ventilation. Even aLuough tl.o weather may appear mild and warm ul this time, the sudden change fioiu u confined atmospnue to lho open field'will almost invariably oaiiH'j quit', a serious check to tho growth of theso plants. We usually remove rWm to the field the first wee* in June. Muoh, however depends upon wrhller conditions. It is better to wai' a few days than to hurry them to the field before the weather is �� .lliiitntl * warm. We plant in rows, snout five feet apart, setting tho plants .'il.out 3 feet apart in tho rnvi, r.'-ing only one plant in a hill, as we fi^d we get a better crop than w-in, two p'niJ* are used. With those crops, as well OH all otter varieties of early vegetables of which I havo any knowlodwe, thorough and frequent cultivation is iii-.osfliiry to secure good results. A soil that is kopt fairly well pulverised, nnd stirred at least once a week, is always warmer and produces better giowth than soil not so frequently utirred. If a person haB no greenhouse or glass cold frame, in which to start the plants, ordinary seasons a fair crop may be obtained by planting in the Hold, if the grower has fairly v.arm soil, warmly situated. By this I mean land sloping to the south and sheltered from northerly winds. Tho ililfi :ulty with growing these crops in this way is that, whilo a very good -lrop may be produced, with proper c-iro, it. invariably comes into tho market too lato to seoure satisfactory "rices. Of the great quantities of v irioties of cantaloupes which I havo ttsted I am now getting best results with Hoodoo and Fordhook. These i nr.e ties are both small, with firm vdlow flesh .of good quality. For .-.ivonn wishing to grow a few for nome phi,, the Kmorald Gem, while muoh small .t nnd too soft for distant ma^'knf,, is tho sweetest cantaloupe that I have seen, and is considered by all I ) be of best quality. Ono growing cucumbers for market should always use varieties of the Whito Spine type, whioh do not turr. yellow when held for Borne *,ime Iwl to reaching the consumer. Of these, lhe Arlington is generally oon icdod to be as good as any. * Yours faithfully, J. L. BILBOBN.

BARGAIN STORE FOR JHE WHOLE FAMILY The Fleet Stripped If we could see tho bIi'im of- the (fraud fleet in the North Saa we may be sure thoy would hardly presant tbrii spick and tjpan appearance which wc ���aBBociate with a Bhip of war uurinjf times of peace; their sides all stained with rust all round the water line, and a Kenerally bedraggled appeir'-'ico��� that is if they have been keeping the .sea, aayB the Navy and.Army Journal. But the. most startling chance would be the stripped and naked appearance they would present, for gone would .J>e all sails, boat davits, ridge p.��lcd, *and the usual paraphernalia that \s .part of any ship's peace trimmings The vesseb are cleared for aotion' Getting a Bhip ready for the slern test of battle is no light undertaking. At least once a week during the piping times of peace the whole al'ip s company are exercised at "gewif.l quarters," an evolution whhh lukes a very few m nutes to oerform. On - these, occasions the buglers so*nd off "exercise action" magazines oi em-d, the guns being loadel with a prjj-jc- tile and dummy chaigts. Drills tire then proceeded with, the guns generally being secured, with all stoma returned by six bellB���11 a.m. When the ship is going to target practice, '.'action" is Bounded, find, of course, the guns are loaded with a real charge and the firing pi.-creds until the amount of ammunition allowed for these occasions is t spent Jed. Then the "secure" iB sounded. That also iB a preparatory f yrform.tncu along side "prepare for twtt?o.." Then the ship is' stripped ol every alum ol frilling likely to prove dangerous to life and limb. All Wood is Removed One of the greatest dangers in a modern action is fire, owing to tbe terrible incendiary nature of : he sho lid used, bo that theoreticatlv no sriup of wood should be found in a wurjhip: but as men have to live in them during times of peace, a certain amount of wood fitting is ofa portablo nature and easily removed. Occisiunally men go to "stations, prepare for battle," when every piece of woodwork that could be jettUon��d is u.fju.jti-ti, . and each man or group of niei made to understand for what parts thoy would be responsible. Just what would be done with bouts in action seems never to ha*.., been definitely settled. Some officers toe in favor of lowering them into crutches on deck or superstructure and filling them with water; others suggest covering them with canvas and binding them round with rone from eiovu to stern; others, again, take the l.t.roie course of dropping them into the sea all well1 fastened together, anl allowing them to drift where thev will. Tho latter course seems the most | Tactical and sensible one. The only object of the boat can be to save life should the shio be redjted to a sinking condition, and both the filling of them with water or mailing them down would render thorn-useless for this purpose, as it would take some time before they could be inude ready for lowering, always sunnos.ng thev escaped the shattering rflVcl of shell. What is being regarded as u good substitute for life-savin? purposes in many ships in the grand fleet is the men's mess table. These are irr-do of one-inch plunking, are about thren feet wide, and from seven to ten feet long. Floating flat on the water, thev would support a great number of men. Immediately meals are finished, these ta bles are dismantled, ready for carrying on deck, should the need for using them for life-saving Durposes aiise. Life-Baving air belts have recently been provided. Those are worn arnui.d the waist and can be blown up quickly and will keep the wearer afloat if the ship goes down. Everybody Protected In our bi? modern ships no one will be outside armor nroteetion during the course of an action. Tho��o are no secondary armaments to use wilov for although the latest of our Dreadnoughts, the "Iron Duke" class, cam twelve 6-inch guns, as did aU pre- Dreadnought ships, theso are a turely anti-torpedo armament, and .vould not bo used in a general action. The gun numbers would be all in their turrets, while the remainder would he below the projectile deck and inside the belt armor. At tho commencement of an uclien ���that is, if the weather wore clear enough to allow for long ranH'o��� the gun crew would have nothing to do beyond loading the mm, the Uaiuing, laying and firing being carried out by the control officer in the control station, situated at the foremost head. It is quite possible that a battle mav be decided before tho fleet get near .enough for the individual gun layer to show their skill. As things s'.-mi in th*> North Sea, wo havo every reasun to believe that our ships have a much greater superiority of gun-fire over the German ships than the Gneisneau and Soharnhorst had over the G< od Hope and Monmouth. Therefore it will be to our interest to make the range as far as possible; aud us Admiral JelHcoe is also one of our loading gunnery experts, tlopon lance m&v be placed imon him to take evert,- advantage thnt superiority tif gun-fire offers. The great test of n general notion, if one takes place, will bo tho armor* nlate, as it is possible that thete will be quite vulnerable to the armor-piercing nroieotiles now in use. In the direction of armor the Germ in ships have a slight advantago, but nothing commensurate with our irnjat pun power. ���P"W*i The four banks of Nelson Vmo im- obrted 6,000 1-oent nieces 4 Ml have been placed in circulation In thai city.

"The philanthropic foundar tions may do some'good," said Mr. Ford, "but they are not adequate. My idea is justice and and hot charity. I have littlo use for philanthropies as such Mv idea is to aid men to help themselves. Nearly all are'willing ' to work for adequate reward.

We will guarantee to take every convict out of Sin^ Sing and make a man of him." Mr. Ford a year ago installed in the concern of which he is the head a system of profit sharing and a minimum wage scale of J.S a day. The plan, he asserted recently, has done wonders. No more are his employees arrested for infraction of the law. Instead of spending their time at vicious or unprofitable pursuits, they spend their time in their hollies and at their employment. There has been an increase of 130 per cent in the bank accounts of employees in the last vear. So great is the interest of the men in their work that the executive heads of the concern are constantly having to hold them back in their activity he declared.: .

Box 362 Save 50 p.c. on your Boots and Shoes Have them repaired Promptly, Properly 6c Cheaply by up-to-date machinery Frank Knapton Bernard Avenue General Joffre once told a good humored story of a party of four British tourists who entered a Paris restaurant oue evening and announced that they wanted dinner. "And we don't want any of your frogs, or snails or horses,' one of them told the waiter severely.- "We'll start with soup, ���some sort of plain soup." "Certainly, sir," replied the waiter, and next minute the four Britons heard him shout down the speaking tube to the kitchen: "Cat soup I" Without a word the tourists seized their hats and boiled. It was not until some time later that they discovered tint in French "four soups" ���"quatrcs soupes"��� is pronounced almost exactly like '.'cat soup." &% One million pigs have been billeted by Germany on the civilian nonnla- tion oi Belgium. The pies must bo fed and cared for by the Belgians, who, without distinction as to class, must perform the servioe. One of the wealthiest inhabitants of Brussels has been compelled so take 12 hog's on what be styles "reduced rate by the week." His poorest neighbors have at least one pig in a family. For some time there have been reporta of a shortage of foddsr in Germany, whereas the amount in Belgium is nsarly nuimal, hence the importation of the swine. Belgians are concerned lest the presence of the pigs resit in a further depletion of the already scanty su> olies of food neosssarv for the people- An'official French noto indicates that there are 3,060,000 Germans and Austrians on the eastern front, snd 3,860- 000 German, on the western front. lar '.JlVSSBSS^BSJaS.^BTaVJaTaTaTafaTflBTJ The Fatherland went Zeppelin i ad, and when a little later, Zeppelin IV. oame to grief, a national aub-waiption of 81,600,000 was raised tn u-place and to build more like her* >',r- many, if one can believe whut be hears, still pins her faith to Zeppelins and "till hopes to use them effective)} against the British fleet.' One of the great argumui:s in favor of Zeppelins is their cheapnns ns compared with warships, So far us construction goes, this is true. The newest of those huge airships, whioh are about the same Itritih ns a first class battleship, arun be constructed for about jfl.OOO.dW). Tt'.i nine can be built for the money spent on one dreadnought. But if a Zeppelin is cheap to oonstruot, she is anything but oho'ip to run, First of all she must be filled with gas. The gas used is hot common coal gas, but pure hydrogen, wnioh is made at a faotory and transported in cylinders under pressure. The original Zeppelin IV. required no less than 17,000 cubic motraas of gas for eaoh filling and this uirrn- tion alone meant an outlay oi ?*2..*K'0. No fabric has yet been invented which is absolutely gas tignt, tuirl 'he valuable - gas is constantly Kakiiic*' away. A filling lasts for a lew days only, and for perfect efficiency it is nocessary to feed a Zeppelin witn gas every day. Then as to fuel. A large 40 home motor car will run about f.'[to..n m.les to the gallon of gasoline. A Zeppelin will not travel much more a la an one mile to the gallon. Added to these difficulties is the vulnerability of the dirigiobs before gun firo, and the trouble ubamt directing bombs from them wiih pre: cision, as seen in the attaaat ou iV. British warships at Cuxhavon ihfl oilier day. Thev are onlv capuble ot d-jinir grvaat damage to crowded, unfortified towns, against which their onlv effective won't has been done so far. re- tho The provincial government bas cently granted ?500 to augm.mt water system in Greenwood. About 1.20 a.m! Sunday morning on an alarm being given in Paris that a Zeppelin was approaohing, mensuies proscribed by the military authorities were carried out. Trumpets .vid firemen's horns warned the people and complete darkness reigned immediately over the whole city evl ptivirojs. The JZeppelin dropped two bombs in Puris and a third in Neuilly-am'-rfeino, which caused a fire. Even if it iB 50 per cent, what an appalling array of widows and orphans will have to be looked after when the war closes! The British expenditures for pensions and poor relief hitherto will seem insignificant beside what is undoubtedly going to be neoessarv for many years to oome. The British government has had a very difficult task to settle scales of compensation and relief that slmll be fair and satisfactory. A British parliamentary committee haB arranged a new soale of pensions, increasing the former rrovern- ment schedule by about 25 per oent. Its scale runs from $2.50 weekly for a widow without children to $5,G2 weekly for a widow with four a-hildreu and' $6.25 a week . for a totallv disabled soldier, and enough to nt" ud 86.25 n week for a partially disabled soldier, 62 cents a week being added for each child to be supported. The British pension list may be a hundred millions'a year for years to oome. The tremendous economic ond social displacement being reused by this greatest of wars is not yet visible. For all the states concerned with their twenty million soldiers, it will take decades to heal the wounds in their life. Not until the next generation has grown up will fare normal balance as it has existed be appropriately restored in each chief belligerent's social economy. More than, any other nation the Get mans will learn that the sinB of \:nr shall be visited upon the children to the third and fourth generation. If the Gormans persist in their re.istnatoe it will not be a "nation in urms," as it has proudly acclaimed itself, hut a nation of widows, orphans and cripples. Penticton poultry association has importa*) six carloads of feed ibis season. Conservative statesmen ore brimri.tr the greatest pressure to bear to prevent hasty action which might phi: go Italy into war. Preparation for participation in the conflict continues, but there is evidence tbat Premier Se.ladi- ra and bis cabinet are moving slowly. There will be no ultimatum to Austria until diplomacy is exhausted. General Von Kluck has been itllthtly wounded, tho war officii jmai atme.-al. He was struck by bits of shrnprtl while insDeoting advanocd post'ions. His condition is declared to be satisfactory.

The Quick and the Dead The openimr games in lhe Sinools Baseball League will bo played on Saturday of this week, April 3rd, The two city teams, High school and Tub- lie school will meet at the p:.rk at 3 o'olock while the Ellison nnd Kutland teams will clash at the latter place. Numerous changes will be ma'l'J in the lino up of tho various teams from that of last year owing to the charging of pupils from one school to another and from the oity to various places of residence in tho district so it is impossible at this time to sise up the strength of the teams, but it known that tbe Public school team is not up to the standard of last year, having lost some of their mot*, valuable players to the High sohool. It has therefore been arranged that the stronger olubs will use a spare pitcher instead of the regular in lira) games against the Public school and in this way it is hoped that the pluying strength will be more even. The High school look to have the stronger team but Ellison must be looked unon as a possible vennant contender, having been materially strengthened. The Rutland club are saying little but are apparently ready end it is stated that several new faces will appear in their line-up this season, and wo mav add that if the new players deliver the gaaods and show the same fighting spirit throughout the seoiaon that was displayed by last yenr's squad, when everything seemed to be breaking bad for' them, then Kutland will have to be taokoned wilh.

STOCKWELL, Auctioneer IT was an old-fashioned habit of newspaper readers to turn first of all to the death notices on picking up a newspaper. Nowadays, people turn more often to the advertisements of the live merchants. They are interested in the quick, and the quickest men'in town are the merchants who Advertise. They are the business progressives��� men with a message to deliver. They back up words with deeds. They make good. It is a safe axiom that it it always safest to trade with the man who advertises. He has a promise to live up to, and he .'cnows his future depends on his ability to make good. Read thc advertisements in The Record and patronize the merchants who advertise. You will find that it pays.
