This important meeting. was originally scheduled to be held iu Greenwood but owing to the roads iu some of the plaoea oat west not yet being open for. auto traffic it was decided by the Greenwood members that Midway would be the logical meeting place under these circumstances and enable some member* to ride or drive there, who would otherwise find the extra distance to Greenwood too far.

I <(������ m ood coffee Why Boys Leave Tne F arm Tho qiU'Sliou suggested by illt-- above heading hart been tho subject of touuUi'.ss discussions, debates, newspaper and magazine articles. It has ucvur been satisfactorily answered, nor lias the problem itself bi.-cn solved. As a matter of fact no completely satisfactory answer can be piven because the reasons wVy -boys leave their farm homes are as varied as the characters of the boys and the farms from which they come. Although no one general reason can be advanced for boys leaving the farms, ii is nevertheless well that continued attention should bo devoted to the subject. To some extent the subject should receive community attention, but more particularly it ls one to be studied and the problem solved by the parents of tho boys. As has already been stated, what influences one boy to leave the farm does not make any appeal whatever to another boy. In th case of the second boy the urge lo go arises from some entirely different ('HUSO. If a boy on the home farm I.s becoming restless, losing interest, in the farm, becoming discontented and unhappy, il i.s inevitable that sooner or later he will leave unless the. reason for* his dissatisfaction Is learned, and, Jf possible, removed. I.ocause father and mother have been satisfied to remain on ihe farm is no reason in itself why son or daughter should be content to do so. The important thing is to develop a keen desire for farming and farm life. Among the reasons usually advanced why the boys���and girls, too���leave the farm are the attractions offered by thc bright lights, the amusements, the companionships of the ciiies. Undoubtedly they have tlicir drawing power, although, all too frequently, they in-ove will-o'-the-wisps. Again, the shorter hours of work in city ofiices,- shops and factories make strong appeal to the farm lad who has a continual round of chores and tasks from dawn to dark. City work appeals to him a.s easier, more pleasant, and as offering greater opportunities for advancement and culture. Too often the boy feels that he is merely a hired man on the farm Instead of a partner in a family enterprise. The present is not satisfactory to him while the future holds out no great promise of anything better. Then there is, of course, those boys to whom farm life does not appeal, but who have a real yearning fo become doctors, lawyer'?, teachers, mer-f chants, mechanics, business executives. On the farm they are, and always would be, square pegs In round holes, just as there are city residents who yearn Cor the land. It seems to be..eas_ier, however, for the farm boy to drift into a city job than it is for the city man to establish himself in rural life. But. is there not another aspect of' this question to which too little at-, tent ion has been given iu tin* past? Is if not a fact lhat farmers do not "magnify their:calling"'as they ought to do? llectnily a farm-boy wrote an article .on this much discussed Question as to why boys leave tlie farm, and. (iiis boy's views are, worthy-of serious- consideration by farmer's and farmer's, wives; .- He.asked ."what, encouragement there was for boys to remain 'pri tlie farui when"-their fathers'and mothers were continually crying ��� down "the farm.and-iis work. - Instead of helping fo keep their boys, on the farm" such.tactics simply* drive, the'ni" away. .... ....}��� '- , .'- ��� .

It is expected that the tests will take betwe";o six and eight weeks and that the results will be known in time fo permit of the remodelling of the Bienfait plant in June if Iho tests prove as successful as anticipated. Fifty tons of tlie Bienfait product were shipped in barrels to St. John's in two carloads. The coal was loaded into a steanier for Rotterdam and will be tested under the Stinnes and Thyssen systems in Germany, and the Brllofeld-Panek system in Czechoslovakia. Investigations carried out over several months have led the private interests considering the taking over of the Bienfait plant io the conclusion that the three systems mentioned above are the most modern and practical.

The delegation from the Hebrides, headed by the Very Rev. Canon Mac.dougall, which toured the Dominion last fall and closely investigated Hebridean settlement with a view.to stimulating and expanding such colonization if found justifiable, expressed itself as completely satisfied with -what had been accomplished and the happy and prosperous state of Hekridean settlers in Canada. . The Scottish Immigration Aid.So,: ciety was formed by a group of philanthropic individuals wiio were keen-, ly appreciative .of the benefits of Hebridean settlement in Canada, and were desirous of extending it to the mutual advantage of -Canada., and Scotland. .It introduced a-.novel "note into" Canadian"colonization.by erecting a number of cottages on land in Alberta for the reception, assimilation and training of newcomers from" the Hebrides, where tho immigrant^ "after travelling llie thousands of miles by land-aud sea, instead of facilig the hardships of pioneering, found a home awaiting hiiyi on arrival. -The society's plans for 1925 are equally novel and ambitious. Recently, through taking advantage of the provisions of the Empire Settlement Act, the society was able to.com- plete the purchase of a substantial block of land just north of Vermilion in Alberia, consisting of nearly 30,000 acres. This block is diagonally intersected by the Cut Knife-Whitrord branch of the Canadian Pacific Rail- and Advise Nature Lovers -"��� Camp" Craft Secrets New Booklets of Canadian National Railways Gives Useful Hints to Fishermen, Campers and 7.

That is the way most people feel in tho spring. Easily tired, appetite fickle, sometimes headaches and a ieel- ing or depression. ""Pimples or eruptions may appear on the skin, or there may be twinges of rheumatism or neuralgia. Any or these indicate that the blood is out of order���that the indoor life of winter has left its mark upon you aad may easily develop into more serious trouble. , Do not dose yourself with purgatives, as many people do, in the hope thai you can put your blood right. Purgatives gallop through the system and weaken instead of giving strength. Any doctor will tell you that this is true. What you need In the spring is a tonic that will enrich the blood and build up the nerves. Dr. "Williams' Pink Tills do this speedily; safely and surely. Every dose of this medicine helps to enrich the blood, which clears the skin, strengthens the appetite and niakes tired, depressed men, women and children bright, active and strong. Proof of the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills when the system is run down is shown by the case of Mrs. Lillian Lewis/ South Ohio, N.S., who says:���"About a year ago I was badly run down. My appetite was poor, I did not sleep well and my nerves wero all unstrung. I could not go upstairs without stopping to rest. As I was a long way from a doctor I decided to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and in the course of a-few weeks I felt like a now person. As an all around res- torative-I can heartily recommend this medicine."

Berlin Is Checking Professional Begging Meal Cheoks Instead of Cash Proves Effective Method An effective method of getting rid of professional beggars has been devised by the Berlin Women's Club. It lias issued books of "coupons In denominations of five and ten pfennigs, which Berlin families can purchase with a view to handing these meal tickets to beggars. The beggar lakes them to the municipal district welfaro oflico of his dis; trict, whereupon ho Is given a free meal. At tho same tlmo his case is looked Jnlo by district welfare workers. Professional beggars never come again lo a" house in which they receive a meal check instead of cash. In fact, tho sign furnished to such families for display and reading, "Alms are here given only, in the form of meal checks," is usually enough to scare them away.

This paper has not, as a rule, taken a very aggressive stand editorially in political matters. We feel, however, that, in this Bye-Election the interests of the Riding are more or less at stake and the path of duty points to an obligation on our part to support 'the Government candidate. The two candidates are well known in Greenwood and vicinity, D. McPherson, Liberal Candidate, particularly so. Mr.; McPherson was for many years C.P.R. Agent here and his reputation of being always efficient, energetic and obliging is -accepted by all- / He has had much - experience, in handling business for others and his natural talents-and graining seem fo especially, commend him as. a man who would make ..an 7 excellent representative.. . .... , 7 Undoubtedly ' the.' Opposition party will, endeavor. ��� to arouse feelings.against the -government, fusing, we presume,, the same,old charges , and arguments we have heard over .and overfagaiu.'.'This .government may ribf'.be.perfect; -it may have made, mistakes,-as all governments'do; but the fact remains thatit is inpower in the province7 and practically certain to remain in power for several years.. Indeed, if this - government gaye.up its office tomorrow /we wonder who wouldvTsucceedor ,f replace.it, '-.We.do know that the Opposition party have not. even a . permanent leader, to say nothing _ of a body of outstanding/men - to whomvwe might,/at this stage, safely ��� commit8-" thb affairs of . British Columbia.. This Riding has been hard hit .from an economic standpoint during, the.past, few.years and we can hardly be accused, of employ- /ing, unfair means if we. secure _ every form of Government assistance we can.. In attempting to obtain7 these, .'the proper and logical.step is to elect a man to the legislature 'who knows our heeds, hasfthe courage and ability to present them, the back bone to fight for .them and the power to /obtain them. ... -j Norwegiih: Creek School[���'/} Report for March .,������" ..Edith Aylwin,7Teacher /Total attendance" . - V ' 2BJj4 Average attendance. ���' f"."'*. iS-95 Proficiency :7List W ..

"She stepped into the bath, surrendered herself to the water's voluptuotiB familiarity. But the sensuousness of ihe embrace repelled her with its implication of luxurioua security; seemed an alien and peifidious presence, in whose contact there was something lewd." Elmer, who reads such things*, makes this comment on that paragraph: "Perhaps the water was a little fresh." H ere an dTh ere A total of 1,003,672 barrels of apples have been shipped-to the English market from Halifax since the beginning of the shipping season up to February 24. London took 354,715 barrels and Liverpool and Manchester came second and third with 207,- 823 and 172,685 barrels respectively. Eighty-four thousand automobiles are now being "operated by citizens of the Province of Quebec equivalent to an average upkeep of $300 per yeai each, a total expenditure for maintenance alone of $25,000,000 every year, according to figures supplied by the Montreal Automobile Trade Association. Around 16,000 horses were shipped from western Canada to eastern Canada in 1924, most of them coming from Saskatchewan. This province is maintaining its lead as the greatest horse-breeding centre of the Dominion, with a total of 1,170,745 head, an increase of 33.44 per cent over 1923. The steamship "Princess Marguerite" successfully passed her trials on Clydebank when'she developed an average speed of 22.56 knots and a best run of 23.2 knots per hour.

Ivan Shvegel, Canadian Pacific Railway representative in Jugoslavia, interviewed here recently, stated that his countrymen were 88 per cent, agriculturists and that he felt "certain that in the mutual interests of both countries the future will, in the field of immigration, lead to closer and closer relations between Canada and the Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes." A romance of the peerage and the steerage was personified by P. E7 Bailey, grandson of the late Lord Glanusk, who arrived at St. John, N.B., last week among the third- :lass passengers on the "Montrose." Bailey, who is just 17 years of age,, svas so 'Struck with Canada that he ran away from Bray Court College at Maidenhead and after a number of adventures realized his ambition. by sailing on the "Montrose." The largest batch of Clydesdale horses that has ever sailed from the Clyde, valued at ��10,000, was embarked "recently on the "Marloch." ��� It consisted of 14 stallions and 3 fillies, and there were also ten Per- :herons from Antwerp on the "Mar- burn," while ten more.
