Ixmdon. May 16:—(Canadian Associated Pres*i—The British Government's decision to exempt members of Parliament from income tax on their sessional allowance and to allow them traveling’ex penses to their homes and constituencies admittedly goes beyond what the committee on the question of indemnities recommended in its report.

The Morning Post, organ of the unbending Tories, declares It Involves tu principle and tendency repugnant to the best traditions of public life in England and urges ftv members, for shaifio’s sake, to think twice before' agreeing to the Govern-| ment’s measure and voting them- j selves relief from the burdens which the Government has to Impose upon other people. *

Home of the papers recall that the sessional allowances to members were originally Introduced about ten years ago without the definite opinion of the country being taken on the question.

• The unfortunate part of our international balances is that With th« United States. The tinrevised figures for the year show that °ur exports to that market amounted to $64».304.466 of domatlc and $18.179.242 of foreign produce, while our Importe amounted to $866.693,470. resulting in an unfavorable trade balance between the two countries of $296,909,676.
•«If Canada Intends to continue to buy as much as she doe* now from the United States she ought to sell a great deal gnore In that marxet. It la undoubtedly to her Immediate Inter est that she should do so. The^poel tlon of our trade with the United States, unfavorable as It is. is likely, however, to he made still more unfavorable. The emergency tariff, commonly known as the Young Bill, which already has been favorably considered by both Houses of the American Congress, calls for the lm posing of taxes which would practically prohibit the importation of il» the chief part) Canadian agricultural commodities, which amounted in volume during the past year to $168.350.- 000. The measure Is for but a six months' period, and the permanent bill has not^yet been brought down.
••The leglaaltion Is treated as emer rency legislstion and pressed oi grounds that the United States has a large surplus of thssé products, which farmers are unable to sell, and that the American farmers are subject to unfair competition In the United States market, as owng to the discount on Canadian money, the Canadian farmer receives Just go many more Canadian dollars. Just as useful to him in his own country as the American dollar Is to the American farmer. _ , .
Trade With Britain.•Our business with the United
Kingdom continues to be satisfactory, although it le unaccompanied with favorable balances as great as in the past. Last year our exports to the Mother Country amounted to $49»,- 060.118, while our Imports amounted to $126,169.249, resulting In a favorable trade balance of $169.600.169. This year our exports have fallen to $114,326.148, while our imports from the Mother Country have grown to $211.930,046, reducing our favorable trade balance to $100.296,400. In view of the large holding of Canadian securities hpld in the United Kingdom, while exact figures are not available, the net balance would be
much reduced, if not Indeed turned against ue. The showing, however.Is very much more satisfactory than our trade with the United States, and the buyers of English goods have the additional satisfaction of knowing that their dollars were at a premium on the English market.
Expansion•'Imports from the United Kingdom
first reached the hundred million mark In 1911. In 1913 they were $138.741.736. As a result of the war. In 1919, the figures had dropped to $73.033,118. In 1920. the total was $126.169.249. The Increase of this over lest year (although last year’s figures were greater than those of any previous year except 1911), is $87,971,697, or over 69 per cent.
Revenues.“The country's revenues have been
well maintained. The revenue for the fiscal year, when the accounts are finally closed, will approximate $482,000.000, as against $349.746.334 for the year before. This marked increase in a year of deflation can only be regarded as satisfactory. The chief resources of revenue are as follows:
"Customs. $163.000.000. —"Excise. $37.200,000."Post office. $26.000,000."Business profit war tax. $40,-

Th# total expenditure ha* been met without new - loans, being covered entirely by current revenue and cash resources available at the close of last year. The amount of cash re venue from the past year and applicable to 1921-23 will be restively small. The figures cannot be de finitely stated, as sundry expendi lures and revenue for 1920-21 have yet to go through the hooks.
Consolidated Fund Expenditure. "In considering the consolidated
fund expenditure, having regard to country's pre-war activities, itthe cvuiiii) " —........ - •
will b* found that the»» amount tr «orne 1141,006.000.

the ordinary expenses of the country^ including all pensions and current war charges, by $69,400.000. and exceed the sum total of the ordinary expenses, together with the regular charges to capital and wsr by $12,- 298,000.
Debt."As already stated, there have been
no fresh borrowings. On the other hand, the debt has Increased by the amount that the liquid surplus of the year before had been used, namely, $101,368,077. It should be noted that out of available cash, tax-exempt bonds aggregating $89.228,300 have been acquired and taken off the market. It la proposed to cancel them.
"The result Is that having reward to t^ke writing down of assets'which
took place last year, the net debt now amount» to $2,360,236,700.
Estimate of Revenue."All indications point to a falling
customs revenue, and with the disarrangement of business consequent on imminent tariff legislation of the United States, it Is difficult accurately to forecast the revende for the coming year. The following estimate, based on existing legislation, may be
• Customs. $136,000.000."Excise. $Si,600.000."Poetofflce, $26,000,000.
, "Interest.on Investments, $19,000,-000.
“Casual revenue, $4,000.000."War tax revenue—Inland revenue,
$72.000,000; business profits and Income tax. $10.000.000; miscellaneous wac tax revenues, $2,000,000.
“All 4>thCr revenue. $11,000,000."Total. $37'2.600.000.
Expenditure."The main estimates tabled call for
a total expenditure of $582.062.698. and the supplementary estimate for, bonus to the civil service an addl- ] tlonal $9.375.000. The policy ot the j Government is to pay at least al current expense. Including c*Pltal charges, out of current income. Thes-i expenses total $378,258.101.
"Provision is made for non-active Investments to thé extent of $165,- 687.633 on account of railway invest ments which at least for the time be ing will yield no return.
"Railway capital obligations ought not to be paid out of current revenue at the present time, but should be refunded. Of this vote the current liabilities of the Canadian Northern call for payment of. $2. 102,870. made up of stock additions.. operating deficits and interest charges.
Grand Trunk."The Grand Trunk vote is re-1
qulred largely for old accounts and maturing capital obligations, ns well as obligations owing the • country. The old accounts will be taken Into consideration in the arbitration pro- I ceedtngs as a deduction from the compensation that may be payable. The company, however, ran last year at an actual deficit of some $6.500,000, i apart from all Grand Trunk Pacific obligations.
The Grand Trunk Pacific vote o' | $26.000.000 ought to be raised out of j current railway expenditure to be made this year, provided In cash, of $57.000,000.
"The total to be raised is $435.- 360,971.
“In addition, the other investments of $47,491.963 are active and revenue-producing, and constitute a; proper deduction from a gross debt.
Tariff."It la obvious, however, that ad
ditional revenues ought to be provided. . . , .
“It is not proposed to put into ei- fect now a general revision of the tariff schedule*. While Canada must make her own tariff, and while that tariff must be a tariff dictated in the Interests of Canada and her people, it Is not advisable that frequent changes should be made.
“The tariff deals with international business, and the proper intérêts of the country cgit only be considered in the light of International business and the tariff laws of other countries. - »

The duties on spirits will be increased from the present $3 customs duty per gallon and the $2 additional duty under the luxury taxes, to a straight $10 customs rate.

FLOOD LOSSES INSASKATCHEWAN
G. T, R. Suffers Damage; Bridges Gone
Regina. May 10.—Extensive losses due to floods are reported from the north of the province.
At Lett, near Battleford, the G. T. P. track carried by the railway bridge has been under several feet of water for some days so that new bridges have had to be built clear of the water level.
At Hweet Grass debris of broken bridges floating down stream have carried away the piers of the railway bridge, leaving the track suspended.
Only one road bridge on the Cu* Knife Greek has not been washed
LIVESTOCK IS MORE PROFITABLE THAN CROPSLivestock is the market through
which the mixed farmer sells the greater imrtloh of hie crops. If then, the quality of his stock ranks low In quality, the prices he receives for his grain, hay. silage and roots will be correspondingly low, showing the •futility Of growing large crops to market through poor stock."
The statement is taken from the report of a survey in 1920 of 242 farms In Durham County, Ontario just issued by the Department of Farm Economics. It furnishes renewed proof that good livestock is even a greater factor in successful mixed farming than good crops.
On the farms where crops and livestock were both poor the labor return averaged only $27 a year Contrasting this group," the report
continues, "with the group whose rops were good but who also had
poor stock to consume them. It is seen that these farms returned to their operators an average wage of $744 for their year’s work—an Increase of $717 due to better crops Next, contrasting the poor crops and poor livestock group with the group of farmers who also had poor crops but whose stock was above average in quality, the labor Income jumps from $27 to $1.254, an increase of $1,227 due to higher quality Of livestock—almost twice the Increase of $717 due to better crops (shown in
preceding table In the report). "Increases of $455. $592 and $717
cSn be credited to the growing of better crops, and $985, $1.2,27 and$1,344 can be credited to the keeping and breeding of better livestock
II about twice the increases duo to growing better crr.ps.
Thus it can be safely stated that the greatest single factor making for successful livestock farming, either beef or diary or mixed, is a higher quality of livestock."
Dragging Arbitration. — Although noting that no progress has been made with arbitration proceedings in connection With the differences with its teaching staff, the Haantch School Board last night decided there was nothing to be done but “wâlt and see." It was mentioned as possible that a decielon*may not be rendered in' time to allow the teachers to give the requisite notice cf resignation, which was mentioned.as one of the possible results of decision notito their liking, but the Board saw no reason why they should not extend the period for receiving such notice# If necessary.

NO TARIFF CHANGES.
As thore was no general expectation that there would be a revision of the tariff this ses- tession, apart from the changes intailed by the pact with the West Indies, Sir Henry Drayton’s announcement to that effect in his budget speech yesterday. occasioned no surprise. Nor diet, he promise outright that there would be a revision next session, but his reference to the tariff changes in the t'nitejl States carries the impti Cation that these might be met with the readjustment of Canada’s customs duties. This part of his speech no doubt is specially intended for consumption south of the international boundary, probably in the hope that ft will put a damper on the seal of the advocates of higher customs duties against imports from Canada. This country can ijt afford a tariff war with the l’ni ted States, not only because this would reduce our foreign trade at a time when it is vitally liecessary that this trade Chould be maintained, hilt because it would create serious discontent among the Canadian people by increasing the prices of commodities. On the other hand the United States would Suffer very considerably from a fiscal contest with a country which purchases nearly $900,- 000,000 of its products annually. It would be poor business for both sides, and in view of economic conditions and the temper of the people neither can afford to indulge in poor business.
THE WRONG EXAMPLE.
readjustment of her industrial conditions without the drag of a braggart company of nationalists whose pride of commercial attainment centred about their ability to milk the treasury for purposes of military conquest.
Germany’s industrial capacity is the result of specialization. It never owed anything the jingoists. “My field is the world” is the motto of the German merchant. If he succeeded when his legitimate territory was overshadowed by military aspirations what may the world expect when he applies his training unshackled T
THEY SEE THE LIGHT.
It has taken the Democratic elements of the German Reichstag to supply the most forcible argument in favor of accepting the reparations terms without further parley. Home of the leading deputies have reached the very natural conclusion that if Germany desires to counteract the equally natural aspirations of France she had better pay and smile. The same wing similarly realizes that the case of the debtor nation would be strengthened in Great Britain and the United States if she carries out the conditions of the ultimatum.
Although forty-eight hours remain in which Germany may make up her mind to-day’s dispatches from Europe contain very little of the defiant tone. The political sentiment in Berlin itself appears to have become responsive to the tuning process which has been considered necessary to produce the requisite majority in favor of submission while there is yet time to escape the pressure which is now in readiness for immediate application. The German People’s Party will remain the last ditchers and vote against anything in the nature of a confession that Prussianism is dead. But its support will not be needed.
BOLSHEVISM DYING.
Fearful lest this Province should overload itself with a system of technical training, at the expense of its perspective of ethical values our morning contemporary has pursued its studies of this highly important subject by a reference to Germany's educational equipment and the manner in which the stress of war affected it. Says The Colonist in part :
"In ell the history of the world no nation wa# better equipped in technical knowledge than Germany. Technical training was in force in her schools for many years before the great war. and there 1» no doubt whatever it waa productive, as applied in that country, in building up efficiency in certain lines. That efficiency immediately became apparent by the manner in which the nation buckled down to the tae* of war. It la obvious, however, that what Germany
---- gained In a technical way shelost in a moral and mental sense. The mind of her people had -become so mechanical that they lost, the perspective of ethical values. This was a result of over-specialisation, and it is something which we do hbt wish to see repeated in any British country.”It is really difficult to believe
that our contemporary is serious in its choice of an example argument against the extension of technical trailing in British Columbia. Has it forgotten that the Allied countries have borrowed the' best of the German system that ilemotlktrtrted Its supreme efficacy during the wart Does it not realize that the very sountrv to which it points its warning finger has been respon- lible for larger appropriations in behalf of specialization in Great Britain and many countries of the world today! In f||et Germany’s economic recov- sry and Mr. Schwab’s industrial diagnosis of recuperated capacity as he experienced it during his recent visit round out the answer to our contemporary’s argument.
Scores of commercial travellers were straining at the leash in Germany when the Treaty of. Versailles was signed in the Hall it Mirrors nearly two years ago. Twenty-four hours afterwards they were at work cv-1 the* world is being flooded with German goods. But the undisputed fact it Germany’s efficiency before the war has a wider significance to-day. She is now at liberty to devote her energy and enterprise, her pertinacity and the Skilful methods of her merchants and her manufacturers, to the
of prejudicing the Canadian case by his public statements on the other side of the Atlantic. No British minister would be welcomed in this country if hé chose to scold us for exercising the privileges of our autonomy ; none the less the authorities at Westminster very probably regarded Mr. Doherty more in the nature of a zealot in his country’s cause rather than a barrier to the removal of what we consider an injustice and what the agrarian interests of Gredt Britain look upon as a legitimate condition. But an offiejal frown from the Prime Minister of Canada to the Premier of Ontario in the nature of a memorandum because of Mr. Doherty’s action and statements in Britain looks something like small politics.
Some of the sceptics who regard the Anglo-Bussian trade pact as a-species of bungle that will have to be hung upon the pegs of British diplomacy before many moons have waned would do well to ponder over information which has reached the American and other foreign representatives at Riga to the effect that the process- of domestic reform in Russia is bearing fruit. They will very naturally allude to the fact that the Third Internationale will not give up its efforts to overthrow ordered society until world revolution has slipped from its grasp. But the Third Internationale is rapidly losing its power. When it has gone Bolshevism will take a quicker slide down the grade than it is doing at the present time. This partieulsr organization is really all that is left of an effort to impose a cast-iron machinery and discipline upon a great hearted but illiterate people— and it has overreached itself. Even the Italian Socialists who were the first to join have refused the conditions of affiliation. The Spaniards and the Swiss have followed their example. The French and German Socialists are less able to conform to a definite course because of the immediate effect of the war. And even after Mr. Lloyd George attempted to apply the Bolshevik brush to British Labor the Independent Labor Forty—the extreme wing —at Southport very definitely and forcibly turned Bolshevism down. On top of these significant developments are Lenine’s own confessions of failure and the virtual decision of the Moscow Congress to abandon communism. Is it not reasonable to expect the next move to be towards the popular conception of responsible Government!
HMAI.I, POLITICS.
It is quite possible that the Hon. Manning Doherty’s public utterances in Great Britain in connection with the British embargo upon Canadian cattle were not necessary. It is quite reasonable to suppose that the British Government will not be influenced by the advice of a Canadian Provincial Minister of Agriculture upon a subject which after all affects the domestic policy of the Motherland. At the same time there is little or no ground upon which the Dominion Department of Agriculture may accuse Mr. Doherty
NOTE AND COMMENTWhen Mr. Charles Schwab
had completed his recent tour of Europe he returned to the United States and told his own people in effect that of all the nations which had taken part in the war Germany had recovered her economic equilibrium the quickest. The defeated nation was able to do this because of the perfection of her business organization and because of her possession of an unlimited supply of technical experts.
Colonel Am cry told a gathering of Canadian business men in London yesterday that Canada needed a highly developed foreign trade for the development of her resources, and if she was to realize her opportunities she must become a greater Britain in economics as well as politics, and not a second-rate copy of the Ufiited States. But Uncle Sam does not seem to be grumbling about his commercial progress or his economic standing these days.
OTHER PAPERS’ VIEWSA COMMON INTEREST(The New York Time»)
Franc», Greet Britain end the United States are of one mind nnd purpose In reepeet to German reparations. This Government bas officially declared that Germany must pay to the extent of her abutty. That Is the position taken by Francs and Great Britain. After due consideration they have fixed upon a sum which they hold to be within Germany's capacity. It Is not for ue to question the accord of Paris; we have no wish or purpose to reopen a question closed to debate. A course of action to put an ind to Germany's endless evasions has been determined on. We are not concerned to bring about aay modification of that plan, now about to be put into effect. Our manifest policy is to maintain ft clear and perfect udec» landing with France and Great Britain, so that the three Powers may be found standing together to the end in a mutually helpful relation of Interest and sympathy. France has urgent need that Germany’s promise to pay be kept—be enforced if that is the only way to make her keep her word: Justice requires that England's demands be satisfied; for the United States it is vitally Important that the dispute over Orman reparations be ended by a prompt adjustment. In order that other matters of large present and future moment may be taken under consideration. Common interests are not served by division of counsel.

HOROSCOPETUESDAY, MAY 10. H»1.

FOBCEMETEBYDecide to Co-operate on Pub
lic Burial GroundsOn the motion of Councillor Bridle,
seconded by pounclllor Mesher at the Esquimau Council meeting last sight that body decided that the municipality would come into the fold, and cooperate with thd city and adjoining municipalities in the Joint cemetery plan. The decision carried by a majority of one after a preliminary discussion. Councillors Anderson and Tribe dissenting. Reeve Lockley state ed that the subject could be reopened later If anything prejudlcal to the interests of the municipality were found. The only point where unanimity was found on the question was in the fact that the present cemetery at Ross Bay would soon be full, and other burial grounds would have to be found. Councillor Wise expressed himself in favor of an Esquimau cemetery, owned by the municipality for that district, but was informed the cost would be too great, as at least twenty acres would be required for the purpose.
Heavy Operating Cost.Councillor Anderson, who was
against the co-operative effort to establish a Joint inter-municipal public cemetery, held that the establishment of such of the present plans Would not be a paying proposition, and in fact would be a very serious drag on the districts affected for the first years of its operation. The motion carried, however. Under the arrangements tentatively outlined Eaqulmalt would have the right to place one maty on the controlling cemetery board, with one from each of the other districts, and two from the city.
Expenditure.A flnaStcial report tendered to the
Council last night called for the payment of $9,600 In accounts. This was authorized. The engineer reported that $5,60») had been expended on roads and bridges, and a balance of some $22,000 was still in hand. A letter from the Royal Financial Corporation requesting that the Council turn their Victory Bonds into I*. O. E. stock with a cash bonus of $3,000 to aid the bargain, was rejected, the letter being received and filed without discussion.
Surveys CesLA letter was received from Mr.
Bateman Hutchison, the surveyor who did the re-survey preliminary work for the district, quoting an estimate of $1,600 for the completion of his share of the work, he to employ his assistant to be included in that sum. Mr. Hutchison was asked what would be the cost of thfc survey under the Special Surveys Act, but could not give any Idea outside hie own fees and that of his assistant.

tlon to the employment of Mr. Hutchison. but waa overruled by the councillors, who expreoaed themselves aa satisfied with the good fhith of the surveyor. Reeve Lockley stated In a discussion of the re-survey work that followed, that the question of compensation would not be very difficult, aa under the act poyer to divert roads to mise existing property was not only possible but the accepted practice. The Attorney - General would, stated the Reeve, appoint a commissioner on compensation if it were found to be necessary. Mr. Hutchison's letter was ordered received and filed aa satisfactory;
Freeen6o-4lemerandum.On the matter of the meeting be
tween the Council and the officials of the Hudson’s Bay Company. Reeve Ix>ckley presented a memorandum that offered a solution to the three points at issue, if It were found to be within the legal rights of the Council, and agreeable to the Hudson’s Bay Company.
The memorandum dealt with the dump on Fraser Street, the requested refund of taxes on property after wards expropriated for the new dry dock, and the requested amelioration
by-law regulations in connection with the Constance Cove farm subdivision of the company. The memorandum as outlined suggested a settlement of the issues that met with the approval of the Council as a whole and was passed to the solicitor for report.
Garbage Disposal.An offer from Captain Jacobsen
was received last night offering to tdw the munlclal garbage to sea for a salary of $lt)0 a month. Councillor Wise brought up the offer, and sug geeted it as a partial solution So the garbage question. After some considerable discussion the garbage question was referred again to the engineer. who stood firm for the plans of affecting temporary relief this year, the elimination of military and naval garbage, and the collection by Coun cil with disposal by the city for next year. Engineer Bourne held that the city might be found willing to dispose of all Eaqulmalt garbage brought to them at the wharf at a rate of about 30 cents per cubic yard, while Captain Jacobsen’s offer, stated Mr. Bourne, would work out at $5 a yard for the present. . The offer was tabled- ■— Wee M erne riel.
In response to an invitation to the soldiers of the district to meet the Council on the question of the disposal of the war trophies, two ex- soldlers turned up. It was agreed with the sanction of the two returned men that the two cannon now in pos session of the Council would he passed to the School Board to place In the Lampson Street grounds. In accord with the offer of the latter body, where they would be used to flank the trees that were planted during the war to the memory of those of the for mer pupils of the school who had fallen tgi action. The returned men present heartily concurred in thé ar rangement, and added that then would be an excellent place, where the growing children would be constantly reminded of the deeds that the war trophies and trees commemorated.
Empire Fund.A request from the Empire Day cel
ebration committee requesting a grant from the Council was tabled. The city, it was stated, gave $2.000, with Haanich«$250 with Oak Bay not heard from. The councillors expressed themselves aa willing to do all within their power to aid the carnival fund, but that they do not wish to lose eight of the very evident unemployment in the district.
The councillors last night sfiined up for membership In the Esquimau Board of Trade, Secretary R. P. Matheeon. of the Board, stating that there were now.over thirty names and that a charte* would be applied for immediately. The secretary was en-

Board to Invite discussion on the matter, end ft was explained that the Idea of the scheme Is to get the public more intimately acquainted with the working of the educational system of the city.
On the suggestion of Jr O. Cameron, who pointed out that the tente and other facilities used by the Chautauqua might bo utilised In the campaign. the meeting decided to hold the Education Week during the Chautauqua festival, and the Chaiataqua management will be asked to cooperate In the matter.
A committee was appointed by Dr. Raynor, chairman of the meeting, composed of Mr a. Burch. Mise Crease. Mies Mackenzie, Dr. Tanner, and Messrs. Winslow and A. O. Smith, to which the various organisations In the city are asked to add representatives. and this committee will draw up the programme for the week. Suggestion* will be welcomed.
A number of the delegate* present last night assured the committee that organizations which they represented Were heartily In sympathy with the movement for an Education Week, particularly the women's organisations. while others reported that they had no authority to speak except as regards their own personal view* in ths matter.
Character ef Work.The question arose as to whether
or not the proposed Education Week was something in the nature of propaganda In favor of the school bylaws which are to be voted on this month. Dr. Raynor replied that the idea was simply to educate the public as to the needs of the educational system of the city, and to get an expression of opinion ss to any beneficial changes that might t»e made. There could l»a no harm done In enlightening the people as to the necessity of the by-laws said several speakers, and It would he better In theJr opinion to hold the Education Week prior to the vote being taken on the by-laws. It was also suggested that the affair should be an annual one. as it would go a long way toward removing a lot of the erroneous Impression heJd by a portion of the public regarding school matters.
A meeting of the committee her been called for Thursday evening at H o'clock, when the programme for Education Week will b* finally adopted and arrangements made for carrying It out. It Is probable that series of lectures by expert educationalists will form part of the programme, and that exhibits of school work, the setting aside of one day in the week on which parents may visit the schools and other methods of parents with school affairs will be

THE MEMORIAL TREES.
To the Editor:—Allow me to express my sympathy with the sentiments of Mr. Jas. H. Cleave-Mortimer, as voiced in his letter in this evening'» Times.
Mr. Cleave-Mortimer writes:"In your issue of the 6th Inst.. I see
a letter from 8. G. Fetherstone. urging relatives and friends of fallen heroes to take up the scheme of planting tqnes to their memory. I think the letter reflects discredit upon the person who wrote it.
"In every town and village throughout Canada. something In the shayo-pf u Memorial lute bedh raised, bot whnt has Victoria done In this way? «imply hofcJiingT VTcloTIS <Wsr not even think enough of the boys who fell to celebrate the Armistice Day. so why expect a Memorial."
Hut the idea of “memorial trees ' was in no way mine. It Is the offspring of some other great mind, and first burst upon my failing sight as a thing of powerful public support. 1 merely thought memorial trees better than nothing at all. The war had , long ended, nothing had been attempted, nothing done, the time wu* approaching for me to sing:—“Lord! Now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, ' and I wished mine eyes to behold a memorial of some sort before “I crept silently to rest." It was only when It seemed to me that even the project to plant memorial trees was about to be dropped, op the score of expense, that Î “rushed Into the field and foremost fell" at the hand of Mr. Cleave-.Mortimer, to whom I humbly take off an aged hat. with th* suggestion that the relatives and friends of the fallen would themselves plant thé tree* If given the sites.
And, my dear Mr. Cleave-Mortimer,. don't know that a noble avenue of carefully-tended trees Individually dedicated to the dead, and each bearing the ngrmm of a fallen hero, with the captured gun» at suitable intervals among them, would be a worse memorial than a monument In stone, a memorial extension to an hospital, or a memorial sewer.
I have not the Jionor of knowing Mr. Jas. H. Cleave-Mortimer. He Is g peg above me. He sails through life double-breasted to the gales with

ADDRESSES AT INSTITUTE MEETING
Shawnigan Women Heard Interesting Remarks
were of a very instructive characterMrs. W. Todd, the secretary, spoke.
Regretting that at its recent session, the Legislature, fn discussing Improvements to th© rural schools of the Province, failed to amend the Act relative to a second teacher In schools where the attendance is forty or over. It Had been felt that forty was too large & number for one teacher to handle. J* all subjects from A B C. to High School entrance had.to be dealt with. A reduction of the number to thirty had been suggested, and the local representative in the House had promised to urge a change In favor of the leaser number.
It was decided to press the matter with the Department.
Child Welfare.Mrs. Raven, the president of the
Strawberry Vale Institute, contributed it very Instructive paper on child welfare. The member* showed great interest in this subject ami a delegate was appointed to attend a meeting in Victoria.
Miss Jean (.’aider, former secretary of the Institute, gave an intensely interesting account of her experiences and observation during the time she was asosciated with the college at Berkeley, California. Miss (’aider took several courses and became intimately acquainted with the faculty and made a close study of the methods followed One outstanding feature was the. fact that no fees were charged—any and all can attend. And. further, if a student failed to pass after studying the prescribed time, he was not permitted to try again for a year. Thus drones were eliminated and all given a fair fhancè.
Taxation.Another striking point noticed by
Miss (’aider was the cheerfulness and even eagerness with which the people submitted to taxation for educational purposes.
But after all was said In favor of the American plan, the (British institutions went a little deeper and loet no merit by comparison.
Convention.The Shawnigan Institute went on
record as favoring the Fall as the
convention of the Insland Institut# There is too much to do on the land now.

Legging at Cemex Courtenay—While it must be ad
mitted» trait the future of the disposal of logs is none too bright the present capacity _of the market in B. C. has not been exhausted—at a price, says The Comox Argus. This price is not the price that obtained last year by any means.
Within the last two weeks Mess!a. Bloedel, Welsh A Stewart have opened their camp near Vnion Bay and logging has commenced frdm their limits. They are operating with a full crew for ortâ side only and working about Iff men in all. It is possible that more men will be put on later, but this depends entlrel> on the market.
At bourtenay Messrs. Vogel & Gordon have commenced logging again. Their beautiful span of horses came in last week and are now at their old camp at Grantham. The logs will be trucked out to the dumping ground on the Slough on tKe Comox Road, from where they will be towed down the river to Victoria.

“And whereas, at the same time they had reduced wages to roadmen In their employ 75 cents a day, carpenters and brldgemen $1 per day;

Ten miles south oft Cape Beale It Is claimed that the fur seals are abundant, hut the Indians are the only ones who are allowed to catch them. The little brown men from over the Pacific are looking on with Çovetous eyes, it is said, and , are grabbing one. or two occasionally, although it Is against international law.
The Indians are adepte*Wt the seat ing game. Among the Snrita trib« are some old timers who have sealed off the Siberian and Japanese coasts in the old sealing days, and it seems to come natural to the younger generation. On a calm day they sterfl upon their sleeping prey and spear them, and as each «kin brings some where around $28 they find it considerable more profitable than fishing for Spring salmon.

“Besides, there are jio chicken* around and why get your master here. You will only have to chase me. for 1 can outrun you and that will be hard work."
So Mr. Dog did not bark. Instead he crawled under the bushes and was soon sitting behind a b|g rock with. Mr. Fox listening to what he had to say.
"1 have been thinking a great deal
lately* Mr. Dog.” he said, "and l haveJ come to the conclusion that Mr. Man j likes ue to be enemies Just for hisI own selfish reasons."-----------------*-----! "You eat hie poultry.” said Mr. i Dog.
“Well, doesn’t he eat them, too? asked Mr. Fox. "he .eats a lot more
' than I do, but no one calls him cruel and tries to catch him in a trap or
I sets a dog after him." x“That is so.” said Mr. Dog. look
ing very thoughtful, i “Of course, it Is true," said Mr. Fox, "and how about you? If you take a piece of lamb while It hangs In the barn, what does Mr. Man do? He whips you, of course.
“And if by any chance you should cabch a live lamb your punishment would he very great, ipn’t that true"?
Mr. Dog nodded that it was true."There, have I not proved that
Mr. Man is selfish and cruel, as well, and that he only calls us names to cover up his own bad deeds? So why should we not be friends apd not quarrel every time we meet?”
Mr. Dog said he was of the same mind and so they parted friend* and Mr. Fox smiled to himself aa, ha sat down by his door to think how easily he had talked Mr. Dog over to his way of thinking.
But on hie way home Mr. Dog seemed to see things Hi a different light. “That rascal Just wants a chance to steal all the chlaltene,w said Mr. Dog. “I never eat meat, so I would never think of stealing my master’s lambs.
“Mr. Man, Is good to me and I am his friend and Î wiM prove it by chasing that bad fellow Mr. Fog away from this pact of the country right off."
In à few minuteaTdr. Fog was sur
prised to see Mr. Dog bounding through the woods straight for him with a bark that wounded far from friendly.,________ _
“You can't trust anybody," said Mr. Fox, and he ran away. “I tried to be a good friend to Mr. Dog by telling him how badly he is treated, and here Is chasing me as It I had done him a bad turn Instead of A friendly one."
But he did not atop to argue with Mr. Dog. he Just kept on running until Mr. Dog’s bark sounded faintly In the distance and he knew he was safe and could look for another home.

HVE MILLION TONS _ OF SHIPPING IDLETrade Depression Affects
Shipping the World OverThe American Chamber of Com-
merer in Lond^i make* a report showing that 6.000,000 tons dcad-
_ weight of shipping, or approximate- ly 3,000.000 tons gross, are now laid up in ports of the lTnlted Kingdom, the United States and Scandinavia, guys Railway and Marine News.
The calculation is based on Information collected at the end of January last, since when the ranks of unemployed ships have been swoolen ■till more. The figures, which exclude 268 wooden vessels Jaid up in the United States, are set out as follows: United Kingdom. 600 ships.2.600.000 deadweight tons: United States, 250 ships. 2,000.000 deadweight
tons; Scandinavia, 428 ships, 750,000 deadweight- tons. \
The report adds that many vessels are, in fact, laid up, although not returned as such. As illustrating the dramatic fall in freight, within 12 months the monthly time charter rate fell from 25s per ton to 10s a tun, and that since the end of 1920 the rate has fallen further to 1$ 6d per tun. This tailing off In the earning capacity of the ships has, it is stated, been accompanied by no reduction in the cost of running charges, save in the price of coal. As compared with the year preceding the outbreak of the war the Increase amounted to 149 per cent, in the masting and home trade, and 280 per cent, in the case of foreign trade. Under present conditions, it is declared, "very little shipping is being run at a profit; on a great many voyages heavy losses have recently been Incurred."
Causes of the surplus of tonnage over requirements and the consequent collapse of the freight markets are to be found in the widespread economic disorganisation " in the Old World, with its reaction on the New World. "It is probably an underestimate to state that 200.000.660 persons in Europe, formerly customers of this country, are now so distraught and impoverished that they are able to produce little, with the result that their'‘Overseas purchasing power has largely disappeared. The state of the foreign exchanges has proved a further hindrance to the resumption of normal trade relations in Europe and throughout the world."
Over 400.000 tons of shipping Is reported to be now lying Idle in South Wale* docks.
PASSENGER HAD VERÏ OUSE CALL
BUT LEFT HAPPYJames Hill Missed Liner at
Vancouver, But Caught Her at Victoria
It was nip and tuck for James Hill, a traveller routed to Australia, In making* connections with the liner Niagara here on her outbound voyage to the Antipodes.
Mr. Hlil has traveled extensively, but he never made a better steamship connection In his life.
His plans at Vancouver miscarried slightly, and when he arrived at the wharf at Vancouver the Niagara was through the First Narrows and headed down the Gulf on her homeward voyage. The Hill baggage was stowed away op the liner and the stranded traveler found himself In a moat awkward plight. * He appealed to the company’s agents, and they acted promptly. The Niagara had about one hundred tons of freight to load at Victoria, so the local agents were wired to hold the ship If at all possible. Passage across the Gulf was booked by the night boat from Vancouver, and Mr. Hill reached here at 6.30 o’clock Sunday morning. He was the first passenger awake, anil was ready tn step off the boat with Ms- handbag immediately she docked. A fast automobile awaited the argiva! of the Vancouver boat at the Inner Harbor wharf, and within a few minutes the belated traveler was safely transported to the Outer Docks. Breathless. he hurled himself up the gangplank pf the Niagara as the ship’s syreh was announcing In hoarse notes her impending departure. The gangplank, was hauled away from the ship’s side, and the big hull slipped out Into Ihe stream a* the passenger mopped his heated brow and visualized the predicament In which he would have been placed had something happened to interfere with the schedule of the Gulf boat.

ElMan Insisted on Getting Into Governor's Lifeboat Re
served for WomenSeattle, May 16.—Telling how the
work of handling a lifeboat, tilled with women and children, was made diffl cult by the suction from the water rushing into the huge hols In the side of the passenger steamer Governor Hrneat Kellenberger, second mate of that yessel when she was rammed and sunk by the freighter West Hart- land, detailed his experiences in the disaster.
He described how Second Steward Claud Atkins swung a hard punch to the jaw of a man who insisted getting into a lifeboat reserved for women and children.
The West Hartland crashed Into the Governor a few minutes after Mr. Kellenberger went on watch at midnight. March 31. Right lives were lost in the disaster.
Gets Order Frem Captain."Being on watch at the moment of
the disaster." said Mr. Kellenberger. “1 came under the personal observation of Capt. R. P. Bartlett, the mas ter of the Governor. We were both on the boat deck. Captain -Bartlett directed me to lower my boat. NÜ 3. the second boat on the starboard aide, to the level of the lower deck •0 that the passengers could step into it. When this order had been obeyed, the master directed me to get wemen and children Into the boat. The Hartland had smashed a great hole In the starboard side of the Uov-
"1 left the boat deck and went down te deck B on the starboard side. There I met a number of women and 1 said. *Come along with me, ladles.’
"1 was impressed at that moment with the total absence of excitement or alarm. Every body was calm and collected. Including the womenfolk. We proceeded aft to the midship alleyway along which we crossed to the port side and then descended to deck C. the lower deck. 1 had to take my chargee to the port side the starboard side there sras smashed In. On deck C we proceeded to the starboard side with the intention of going to my boat, but when wo got to the corner of the alleyway on that deck, we found a gaping hole.
"The Harthmd’s prow had cut Into the deck In such a way that It left only about five inches of deck In the alleyway. I dared not run the risk of trying to lead the women along such a narrow space, with a straight wall rising on the side and a great hole below on the other side. It was like a narrow ledge on the side of a precipice. 8o 1 had turned and led them forward on the port side where we came on eight or ten other women and a man with a baby In his arms. I told them to come with us and we went forward to a point- where we could cross hack to the starboard side. There we pro ceeded aft to my lifeboat.
"A man was sitting In the boat Second Steward (’laud Atkins arguing with the man. ’This hbat( is reserved for women and children, •aid Atkins, as he tried to pull the man out of the boat. The man started to argue, so Atkins hauled off and punched him In the jaw. That ended the argument.

BULBS WHEN AFLOATConstance Talmadge was "shoot
ing" a scene for her ne.w play, "A Woman’s Place," on the liner Mauretania the other day nt the pier In New York. The Mauretania Is a veritable garden rlilp, and while waiting for the sun to take a more favorable position, the conversation drifted to flowers. Miss ’raimadge told this story about dahlias:
“Iasi Fall.’* said Connie, "a neighbor down home brought me an armful of beautiful rtahtra* and 1t seemed that no two were alike. T love dahlias and of course I straightway asked her to save me some bulbs to plant. She promised me all I wanted. This Winter 1 Reminded her of her promise. Again she said I could have all I could plant. A week ago 1 told a friend to remind her again about the matter. The friend came back to me and said that the bulbs had all he frozen during the Winter. 1 sighed as I thought what a mild Winter It had been. 1 was sorely disappointed too. Finally my friend said:
’’I’ll tell you the truth. Those dahlias were bought for you from dahlia fancier. Your friend has no bulbs. You liked the^ flowers so much, and took it for granted that she grew them, si she hated to tell you the truth.’*
New Connie will welcome dahlia bulbs from any one who wishes to be ki .d to her in this way.

Winnipeg Citizen Says Tanlac Gave Him Surprise of Life
by the Way tt Built Him Up
"Tanlac has given me such a pleasant surprise In restoring my health that I am glad to give a statement for what it mly be worth to others," said Joseph Wathon, 246 Colony Street, Winnipeg. Man., recently.
"Over two years agp. soon after I was discharged fronx the army. I found myself getting run down. My stomach was out of order and everything 1 ate caused pains and bloated me all up with gas until my clothes seemed too small for me. My appetite failed me. I got to where 1 couldn’t relish my meals, and I went ^own in weight and strength until it seemed that l had no energy at all.
"Mv wife kept after me to try Tanlac. but 1 had no faith In it. Then one day while we were down town she lead me into the Uggett Drug Store and insisted until t finally bought a bottle. This helped me so much that 1 Rot another bottle, and then another, and kept on taking It until now I'm back In fine shape again. My appetite is simply splendid. and everything 1 eat agrees with me perfectly. I’ve picked up several pounds In weight, and feel fine all the time. Since Tanlac has helped me so much. I firmly believe It Is the best medicine In the world for stomach trouble.’’

OPENING GALA AT GORGE ON MAY 21
V, A. S. C. Fanning Elaborate Programme; First Handi
cap Swim to Be HeldThe formal opening of the Victoria
Amateur Swimming chib House at the Ueorge will take place on Saturday evening. May 21. Swimming events which will Include the first 50-yard handicap of the season wWl start at « o’clock, and probably last for an hour.
A programme of events and exhibition swimming is being drawn up, and édrisldemble intereat is being shown by the members of *he cjub. LàsL year a very creditable exhibition was given by the club ehOiUWikt«,1 but the water was very cold, and the programme had to be somewhat curtailed. This year the weather Is much more favorable to swimming, and Judging by the crowds already taking to the water there will be no lack of competition in the different e venta _ .
The Club House is in much better shape than last year. Four large logs have been placed under the main building, which has raised It several inches higher from the water, an# made it possible to accommodate a larger crowd without the Inconvenience of some getting their feet wet. A long raft has been constructed on the shore side of the 50-yard course, which now makes its possible toac- rommodste1 Wpe*ttitofs Ah both sfdaâ of the courue. The children’s dressing rooms have also been fitted up, and there Is ample accommodation for both the boys and the girls.
The social committee of the club ts planning to have everything cleaned up by the date of the opening and the club house decorated for the occasion. A picnic and sing song will follow the swimming events on May 21.

PANTAGESParis aflutter with the spirit of
the carnival season- brightly colored with streets In holiday dress, flags and bunting and almost buried in tons of confetti—this Is the sort of Paris that is disclosed in “The Frisky Mrs. Johnson,” Billie Burke's new Paramount picture which is the feature at Pantages Theatre to-day. It Is a picture with the smart setting of the Rita tea room and the atmosphere of the Boulevards; beautiful women in lovely gowns and jewels: glimpses of the carnival Itself. great crowds in costume, elaborately decorated floats. Comedy and drama are conspicuous elements of the story. Walter Crane is the leading man and others in the cast include Huntley Gordon, Lumsden Hare and Jean de Briac.

MARIAM COOPERNever before has V story come so vividly to- the screen as R. A. Walsh's adaptation of "Idols" by
William J. Locke.
There are no sex problem* no matrimonial mix-ups, nor life . lessons to be learned from Wallace Reid's latest Paramount picture. "The Love Special.'* which was shown at the Dominion Theatre last night. It lea fine, red-blooded story ’ with lots of mountain railroad atmosphere, a charming romance, and a few well- staged thrills to lend spice to the production. Mr. Rgid is well supported by Agnes Ayres, and several other prominent players, including Theodore Roberts, Lloyd Whitlock, Sylvia Ashton. Alexander Gaden. Clarence Burton, Ernest Butterworth. and others.
The story revolves around J1m Glover, a construction engineer on a mountain railroad division, who gets "in dutch" with the daughter of the president of the road on first meeting her. and then falls in love with her and wins her despite the schemes of Harrison, a director of the road, who loves the girl. Eugene B. Lewis wrote the scenario and the picture was directed by Frank Urson. former assistant to Cecil B. iHeMHle, who has now become a full- Tledged director.

In the prisoner's dock a man charged with murder passes through the recital of the circumstances which point directly at him. A few words spoken by himself would clear him, but ha has taken an ogth never to speak them and his lipa remain sealed.
Among the spectators is a young married couple, the prisoner's dearest man friend, and the woman whom the prisoner has once loved. The man murmurs "I would give anything to save him.” The woman asks "You mean that—anything?"
Then comes the scene which makes "The Oath." the R. A. Walsh production for Associated First National Pictures. Inc., which opened at the Royal Victoria Theatre, yesterday, the most dramatic photoplay which has ever been shown in this city. It is a scene which makes the spectator grip the arms of his chair, and half rise to his feet, tilled with anxiety for fear there may be a slip of some kind In the tense action.
What comes before the big scene and that which follows It is sufficiently gripping and staged In such a manner a* to make the production a notable one, but the conclusion- of the court room scene carries the story to a dramatic height that makes it an extraordinary production.
The Oath" is an adaptation of "Idols,1' the novel by William J Locke, but even those who have read the story will hot fail to he thrilled by the scene In which Hugh Colman is changed in public opinion from a murderer into an extremely quixotic lover. The thrill of seeing it enacted Is far more Impressive than that which cmrid ever come from the printed page.
The actors who portray tbA story compose the finest cast yet sWh in a motion picture production. Miriam Cooper has the leading feminine role of Minna Hart and never has she done better work before the camera Conway Tearle plays Hugh Colman Henry Clive la cast as Gerard Mer- rlam, and Anna Q. Nilsson gives a most pleasing and convincing Qpr- trayal of the difficult role of Irene Lansing. Mr. Walsh has blven the talented direction and settings that make "The Oath" one of the big motion picture productions of all
PRINCESS"The End of the Trail." the play
selected for this week beginning Wednesday evening at the Princess Theatre, is an unusual western play abounding In comedy singing and thrills. If you have ever enjoyed a play at that theatre you will enjoy this one. The author ha» given good scope for pretty scenes of the West.
Several scenes In the new Alice Joyce* special production, “The Stain," are laid in New York s world-

wardens, drawings wire made of the cells and corridors and a facsimile built at Vitagraph's Brooklyn studio. Nearly all the scenes in “The Stain" are laid in ultra-fashionable circles of New York life. The Tombe scene was Just a short . one, but Edward Jose, Miss Joyce's director. Is known as a stickler for detail.

What’s thisTriplex’ Stuff I Hear So Much About,Ed?”
«qpHAT-S it,A rrightthere
on that bicycle."It’s as simple as A. B. C.“But it means as much to a
bicycle as the whole alphabet does to the English language.™
“How’s that, Ed?""Just this way ;—“The crank hanger is
the power plant of your bicycle.
“If your crank hanger turns just a little stiff or hard, that means more effort for you.
“If the hanger develops those mean ‘tight and loose’ spots, it means more friction and less power.T “But the ’Triplex' was designed and is built to overcome those faults,
“It is made of such fine steel and to such close limits of accuracy that it always runs smoothly, dt makes your bicycle run so easily you’d think you were riding down grade.
“It takes a lot more time and
better workmanship to construct such an accurate hanger.”
“Well, well ! I never thought a crank hanger was so important, I see now thatit is really just as important to have a good crank hanger on a bicycle as a good engine in a car.” '
“That’s right The Triplex' is sure some power plant.
“Were you thinking of buying a new bike, Charlie?”
“Yes, I was thinking something about it pd. You know I bought a cheap one against your advice last year and I’m sick of pushing the old cart along. Besides, it’s always wanting repairs.”
“What you need is one of those new C, C. M. Bicycles. They’re built to stay out of the repair shop. I know of many C. C. M.’s that are giving good service after ten, to fifteen years riding over all kinds of roads.”

Limpson Street on July 1. when all
hea,rd again to-day in the city police cvurLj H. B. Robertson for the de - fencejitnd City Prosecutor C. L. Harrison submitted a long list of legal authorities dealing with the matter. The charge, with another against the proprietors of the contest dealt with in the advertisement compatned of in the charge, was brought under subjection (1 of section 235 of the Criminal Code, and was stated to-day to be first to be,heard under that section in the Dominion.
Legal references for analogous cases were made to the English Betting Act, under which several cases in relation to horse races were made. The case of Rex versus Stoddard, Lennox versus Stoddard and others were cited by both counsel. The Stoddard cases concerned a man who advertised for a contest where cash would be given to those who guessed the correct results of the various horse races. He was convicted on two occasions. Another case where a newspaper was charged with publishing a similar advertisement. involving expectant Increase in circulation from the advertising scheme was acquitted. Magistrate Jay reserved Judgment until Tuesday next, when the charge against G. H. Warde, local agent for The B. C. Olympian, a monthly published in Vancouver, will be heard.
Statement of Publishers.A number of witnesses were called
for the defence to-day in the former case, the first being Richard J. Templeton, of Vancouver, part proprietor with Ü. A. Mallett of The B. C. Olympian, which was classed as a Vancouver monthly devoted to sport and motoring news. Witness purchased the lease on the premises at 52 Arcade Building, where he installed G. H. Warde as agent under instructions from the Vancouver office of the pu mica lion. Wit nées inserted the advertisement in The Colonist here after legal advice In Vancouver, and after l**ung ,told by The Colonist that the legal advisers had also passed on the subject matter of the advertisement.
James L. Tait, manager of The Colonist Printing & Publishing Company, took the witness stand next, and corroborated much that had been said by the first witness. He had obtained tjie advice of his solicitors on the advertisement. and then accepted it for publication, he stated.
Papers Doubtful.j Mr. Templeton, cross-examined by j the city prosecutor, stated that the ! scheipe was an advertising one to promote the circulation of The B. C. Olympian. It hud been running here Mint* April lti. The form ut the advertisement had been changed later, when it was made necessary for would-be contestants to subscribe to The B. C. Olympian. In two weeks of operation, Mr. Warde told the court. .The H. C. Olympian had paid out 13oo In ttrlrt». and only taken in Si 12. or made a loss of |18S for ttnc two- weeks. Witness staled The Col onist had been the first paper to accept the advertisement, and that The Times had Refused to take It. The World and The Province in Vancouver had not refused, but asked for lime to consider the matter; The Bun had accepted but later advised Mr. Templeton that they would not take It, us it would interfere with one of' their own along somewhat similar lines.
Magistrate Jay then heard arguments of counsel, and Interjected that the case at point was analogous to guessing the number of beans In a Jar. which was In a sense a matter of skill, the same would, he suggested, apply in the baseball competition for any who followed the game would be abie to knowf*the relative merits of teams, pitchers, grounds and relative chances of winning, might in fact be held a matter of skill.
If that were so. replied the .City Prosecutor, betting on prise fights and everything similar could be held legal ; it could be held that the readers 61 papers could take their facts on the weights, measurements and photographs of the prize fighters, and so use skill to determine the winner of a prize light.
After further interchance of au- Umgitt— on the cas.- tin- court ad-
^^Trned the hearing, reserving judgement in the case, with a remand for
the charge against the local agent.

Co-eperatien.Ottktra, May 10.—"We in ffilneda

"The world is sadly out of tune. May we help In restoring harmony Trust and confidence are sadly lack- * Ing. Class interests are advanced with selfish Insistence. Unemployment la with us. Faith in our fellow - men is weakened. Doubt of the future is often voiced. And what is the trouble? The sun still shine* and the river» still sparkle, our lands are a* greet and fruitful as ever and our resources Just as vast. Shall if be nifl that the work and sacrifices nf the last few yeers were In vain? That we Canadians of to-day do not think that that Canada for which so great a stream of heroic blood was shed—a Canada great enough to die for—is a country not worth living for? Ah, to do that means living for and helping our fellow-Canadian*. It means the realization that no real ««’vantage can be taken by this clasn at the expense of that, as the wrong of one work* to the injury of all. Ft means that Canada r« quires honest, clear thinking and the. abandonment of racial, class and political prejudice. Thus our task Is worthy of the effort.< of a united Canada* and the best, unselfish constant work of each and «II of us. If we can but again renew faith in one another and our country, live for Canada and the faith of r ur forefathers, the future hold* no shadows forCana da."_____ ___________
.The pitiful plight of prisoners turned loose penniless at the con-, elusion of their terms of imprisonment, was brought up _fvr further consideration yesterday "afternoon at the monthly meeting of the Local Council of Women.
Mrs; Roberts, , copvener of the special committee appointed for the work, reported on their interview with the Attorney -General, who informed them tAat owing to the pressure of business at the last session of the Legislature he had been unable to do anything. The committee reported that the condition of released prisoners was indeed desperate, as they were thrown on the world without even money to pay their fares back to their homes. Mrs. Andrews, seconded by Mrs. Burns moved that "this council ask the National Council at their annual meeting to open discussion on the possibility of work In prisons with a view to reformation of prisoners and their having some money in theii pockets when they leave."
Women’s Naturalization.The individual naturalization of
women also came up for discussion. Miss Lawson contended that it wȍ a great misfortune for a Canadian-* woman to lose her nationality through marrying a foreigner. The question hinged on the woman voter, who is deprived of her voting powers through such a marriage, although many men voters were ignorant even of the language of the country of their adoption. The Council adopted a resolution that it favored ln-^ dividual naturalization of women' rather than naturalization by mar-I riage.
Other Matters.Mrs. Burns brought in à resolution
urging "the establishment in Victoria of a permanent soldiers’ hospital."
Mrs. White Birch, who was welcomed back after her visit to th< Old Country, brought a message ©4 greetings from Lady Aberdeen.
Two new societies were received into affiliation: the Princess Patricia Lodge of the Daughters of St George, and the Daughters and Maids of England.

LOCAL OPINION APPEARS FAVORABLE TO BUDGET
«Continued from page 1.)Profits War Tax.
The business profits war tax act will not be re-enacted. -All ttv- luxury taxes, those which were and those which were not remitted last December, will be abolished.
No change will be made in the principle of the sales tax, or to extend It to a general turnover tax. Its operation will be confined as at present, to sales of manufacturers, wholesalers. Jobbers and Importers.
In regard to these matters. II. H Stevenson, acting Secretary of the Retail Merchants' Association, says that It ha* always been a good practice to let the manufacturer pay the sales tax because If the retailer should pay It, in the majority of ruses he has to increase hi* prices and sometimes to the extent of fifty per cent, of the Oust value and the sales tax is thus increased by 4 per cent, if it Is a 2 per cent. tax.
"The Retail Merchants' Association of Canada was responsible Tor the removal of the luxury tax, and has been influential, through Hon S. F. Tolmie. in dealing with these matters," said Mr. Stevenson.

BID TU!No Need For Name on Statue,
Sculptor OrderedIf Albert BruceJoy had arranged to
put a sign on one side of the statue now in front of the Parliament Buildings to tell the world that it was Queen Victoria it would have been done without any hesitation, Govern ment authorities In charge of the statue, explained to-day In answer to the English sculptor's cabled camlga lion of official B. C.'e sense of art.
It was explained to-day HoW the artist's plans for the ntatue railed for a plain marble pedestal without any lettering whatever, as everybody Is supposed tp» know that the statue is of Queeh Victoria without being told so. But along came the Prince of Wales to lay the corner stone, and, of corns# words Identifying the stone had to be carved on It. But this wording which is on the back of the pedestal has to deal only with the cornerstone, and says ^nothing about what the statue is supposed to represent. And. artistically It is considered In its proper place as It Is out of sight, and does not offend the eye of anyone observing the beautiful lines of the Queen’s figure in front.
Greet» Incoming Travellers.Because It waa found Impossible to
place the statue between the fountain and the buildings, it had to be placed down on Belleville Street. In doing this It was necessary to turn- the Queen around, and' Instead of having her look South against the sun and up at Captain Vancouver in gold tm the dome, to give her an outlook acrdffl Yfre harbor. In this position the Queen greets everyone" doming off the boats, and naturally, it would never do to have her placed with her back turned to the people on the street, for the sake of giving her personally only a pleasant vista aero sa the lawns.
Fountain Cut Down.To heighten the artistry of the
front garden of the buildings and remove some of the offense art connoisseurs have seen in the fountain, that scrawny creation has undergone a pruning of Its slenderness. All the centre spiral has been removed about the-big basic cup. IcavliUL-lt like a big sundae dish with only a feeble centre spurter rising bashfully like a cherry on a toothpick out of a bowl of Ice cream.
Art students among civil servants In the buildings are delighted with the new fountain style, as it gives them a clear view of the back of the Queen in all the dignity of her marble «tovttfete. —- — - - - ■■ ■ " "!.<w

TIME SCHEDULEDeputations and Petitions In
duce School Board to Change |
To-morrow mortiing the Saanich schools will be placed upon daylight saving time, the School Trustees deciding, at last ntgbWs meeting tx> make the change, after hearing large deputations from CloverdaJe and Gordon Head and receiving written appeals for the change from the following: Ward One Ratepayers’ Association, with 77 signatures, Gordon Head with T9 affirmative and oge nemlPe signatories. T:>lmie. North Dairy, C’ralg- fiower and the Saanich Central Parent-Teachers’ Associations. the Struwberryvale Women's Institute, ami the principal of the Royal Oak School.
In urging the Hoard to make the change Mrs. P. MrNaughton declared that all Gordon Head - was united- tft support of the proposal, only one irreconcilable opponent being found in a
, complete canvass.Si* Heurs For Meals.
W. P. Jeune, of the Uloverdale deputation. declared that at present no less than six hours daily was required for provision of meals in homes where /the menfolk had to I adhere to city time and the children to standard hours. |
chairman Holloway said the Board were in office to give effect to the wltt of the people, and as the desire was so general he fawdred the change. He pointed out that at u special meeting held last week Trustee» Mrs. Humphries was the only member of the Board favoring a change, and explained that hlh own Inclinations as a farmer were against a change.
Trustee Mrs. Humphries, then formally moved for the change, being seconded by Trustee Hull. Trustee Oldfield made a strong effort to secure a division of the schools into
rural âhd urban areas for time observation, with the line drawn at Royal Oak. In this he was unsuccessful, the chairman remarking that all could try the new time, and if it was not approved further action could be taken by the Board.
Trustee Thorno wanted the change to be limited to.the balance of the term, with etandàtü time resumed with the re-opening of the schools after the Summer holidays. This proposal was not acceptable, however, and the motion, as adopted, will put daylight saving into effect for as long as it is practised by the city.

Council in Criticizing School Plans
The Saanich School Board last night warmly debated the terms of a reply to a letter from the Saanich Council, In which disapproval of the plans for the new extension to Til Ileum school were based on dangc to the children.
The Trustees maintained that their estimates . had been ruthlessly pruned, and their solution of accommodation questions was t^e best they could do under such limita
It was also argued that th Trustees were ihore in touch with school needs and should be left to carry out their plans untrammelled, in the name way as they us a Botrd refrained from criticizing the manner in which the Council carries out highway work.
Trustee Mrs. Humphries thought the question was too Important to drop and moved that the Council be informed of the resentment of Hr* Board, the letter to be approved by Trustee Thome, who had Introduced the matter. Trustee Hull seconded and the motion was adopted unanimously.

Debt ............ 12.39Schools.................. 10.15
It will be seen from these figures that the increase in the annual tax rate this year was necessitated by increase» in the amounts of money needed to cover school expenses and interest on debt. The school costs has increased to the extent of 1.55 mills, and the debt charges 1.59 mills.
Fixing of the rate at the twenty- nine mill mark oaine as no surprise last night, as the increase in the an nual estimates necessitated a corresponding raise in the levy. The tw'enty-nlne mill rate, however, did not satisfy Alderman A. E. Todd, who urged that another mill be added to help to absorb some of the huge shortages that have occurred in the past. He got little support, while Alderman John Harvey, who had an nounced that he would fight any increase in the tax rate, raised little protest against the addition of three mills. He explained after the meet ing that he had found that it would be useless to try to block the raise.
Must Be Check.“We can’t continue forever in the
way we are going." Alderman Todd warned. "We're certainly going to be brought up short some day. The continual shortages in the sinking funds and the general serious situation must be faced. We expect relief from the Government but that relief Is gti in definite quantity and we all know there will be all kinds of increased demands made upon us as soon aa relief is given us by the Provincial Government. Year after year we are going behind and my emphatic opinion is that this yearvwe should tax for the shortages of the preceding year. My recommendation is that taxation would be levied this year, if not to cover the entire shortage of $199.000 at least for a 14 items except that of $97,000—the city’s share of the 1920 local Improvement taxes unpaid. I think, in round figures, this year we should tax the people at least $100,000 to assist in' making up the shortage of past years. This extra taxation doe» not tit any way help ta pa* Gte deficiency on local Improvement taxes."
At Alderman Todd's request, the Council had read the letter on the taxation problem which the alderman had addressed to it some months ago.
A Difference of Opinion."Alderman Todd Consider» as a
shortage the difference between the levy and the sum collected," Aider- man Rangent remarked. "I would not concede that as a shortage at all! ft might be th# very best revenue the city has as we get eight per cent, interest on that difference. To assume that this Is a shortage and then levy to cover it would be a peculiar class of business. As a matter of fact, to tie logical and keep your books absolutely right you would, under this scheme, have to cancel the unpaid taxes. We probably will lose some of the taxes we are levying, there is no doubt, but we don't know how much, and we won’t till we have an adjustment—'till we get the taxes oç sell the land."
Levying Against Shortage."Alderman Sargent sees things al
most the same us 1 do only through rose-colored siiectacles," Alderman Todd replied. "1 would like t& be as optimistic as NF Is. We hi^ve not dared to put a price on large quantities of reverted lands, knowing we can’t sell for anythlng-fike the taxes against it. and a great deal of it no person would take It over knowing he would have to pay the present taxes on it. We know there will be t shortage fit TOT Tottvcttomr this year and that we can t hope to pay up the past shortages. We simply overtaxed the property and we know the people won’t pay them. We know there is a shortage of $3,000.000, and while we realise we will have to do a certain amount of re-funding, I think that every year from now on we should levy to cover certain percentage of that shortage. If we don’t do it voluntarily our creditors will force us to It—they will come to the City Hull and more or less take pos
ition and force this action "■*We have no right to force the gen
eral public to make up for those who didn’t |wy their taxes.” Alderman Rangent Insisted. "We should not levy for this until we know the general outcome. I have had as much experience as Alderman Todd In municipal affairs In different municipalities, and 1 have never heard of any such proceeding in. ray life. If Jones and Smith are levied on the same class of property and Jones pays and Smith doesn't, and Jones has to pay Smith's share next year, is an absurd proposition.’" .....
While I agree with Alderman Todd’s policy 1 would not be prepared to go the whole way." said Acting Mayor Sangster. "We wlH know better where we stand after the tax sale this year. We should mark time this year till we are up to date.”
Todd Would Compromise.Alderman Todd explained that the
addition of another mill to the proposed rate of twenty-nine mills would go only half toward carrying out his original suggestion.
Alderman Fullerton declared that the Council would $pt be justified in making any unnecessary increase in the rate at the present time. It would be wise, he thought, to postpone any such Increase until the whole municipal finance situation had been adjusted by the Provincial Government at the next session of the Legislature.
“I’m sorry to add these three mills," said Alderman Harvey. “It will mean that a lot of property will revert to the city. It seems, however, that the last chance to keep down the rate In gone.” .

bnr-BiikHOSPITAL DIRECTORS
WILL NOT GET FULL LOAN OF $225,000
CounciT Says Bonds Must Be . Floated at Discount
Alderman Todd's motion JJiat an extra mill be added to the rate to help to absorb past shortages was so hopelessly defeated that it whs thought unnecesaary to record the vote.
£J*rhener has been selected as the place for holding the CanudA Con-
go ahead with its new hospital project and force the city to float a loan of $225.000 to cover the coet, fi must he prepared to receive as little as $200,000 as a result. After discussing the matter tost night the City Council will send » letter to the hospital- directors setting out these facts.
"The Hospital Board evidently expect to get the full value of a loan of $225,000." remarked Alderman Todd when the hospital question came before the Council. "If they are. they are laboring under a misapprehension, and we should get City Comptroller J. L Raymur to tell them what they probably will get. They won’t get anything like $225.000.v
‘The original hospital by-law provides that all costs. Including discount on bonds, shall come out of the loan -that is.the Hospital Board will get that much less," said Mr. Ray-
‘ After considering the matter we have concluded that they won’t get more than $200.000." Acting Mayor Sangster stated. "We should have a conference with (he directors on the question."
On the motion of Alder man Todd, it was decided to inform the Hospital Board of the conditions under which thé hospital loan would be issued. Would Have Returned Soldier Wing.
If plane discussed by represents- liven of returned soldier and other organizations last night are carried to a conclusion, the new wing which the Hospital Board plans to build at the Jubilee Hospital will be specially designed for the accommodation of returned men. This plan would do away with the necessity of building i separate hospital for returned sol diers on Vancouver Island.
The offer of the Hospital Board to make the new wing à returned soldiers' building was made at last night’s meeting by George McGregor. Chairman of the Hospital Board. The plan, however, was continent upon the approval and support of the Fed-
HEADACHESMake Life Miserable
Headaches are one of the most aggravating troubles one can have, and It is hard to struggle along with a head that aches and pains all the time.
Headaches seem to be habitual with many people: some are seldom, if ever, free from them, suffering continually from the dull throbbings. the intense pains: sometimes in one part, sometimes in another, and then again over the whole head.
There is only one Way to get relief from these persistent headaches, and that Is by going direct to the seat* of the trouble, for unless the cause is removed, the headaches will ■till continue to exist.
The fact that Burdock Blood Bitters keep the stomach, liver and bowels toned up Is proof enough to show th4t it will eliminate the cause of the headaches.
Mrs. Harold Lanaln, Owen Sound. Ont., writes:—“My system was rur down and my blood out of order J suffered, a great deal from severe pains in my head, which made me feel very miserable. After bavin/ tried other remedies I purchased p bottle of Burdock Blood Bitters, and was very glad to notice a decided improvement in my health, so 1 » another and am glad to say that 1 has done me an enormous amount of good. I have recommended it tp my friends, who were in a slmilai condition, and they all say it is r wonderful rembdy."
