Bentley Bean Supper
Proceeds Total $11
(From Our Own Correspondent)
RENTLEY.—The C.G.LT. and
Tuxis Groups of the Bentley
United Church held a very suc-
cessful bean supper in the club
rooms Friday evening. The girls
dressed in their regulation
blouses and skirts, were very
capable waitresses, while the
boys ‘ably performed the more
menial task of dish-washing.
The proceeds amounted to $11.
Much credit is due to Mrs. G. A.
Wright and to Rev. C, A, Warren
as leaders of the groups for the
success of the affair.

paper, and what he doesn’t want
to know isn’t worth knowing,
The paper was printed by the

New Securities Tax To Be
Applied on
By TI. B. WINDROSS
EDMONTON. —With the budget
debate under way in the Alberta
Legislature and the session more
than half «ver, there still was no
hint his week of what legislation,
if any, would be introduced to
bring about reduction of farm
debt and interest, particularly ia
mortgages.
There was an announcement of
a new securities tax which would
apply to mortgages-—a tax of two
per cent on the principal, with
the mortgage-holder, or other
security-owner, held liable for it.
The tax was estimated to yield
$100,000 annually to the govern-
ment, taken from the pockets of
large or small investors, be-
cause the owners of the mort-
gaged properties simply have not
got the money.
It was expected, however, that
mortgage holders who in the past
have reduced their interest rates
voluntarily —-and many have
knocked two per cent or more
off the contractual rate—will be
forced to ask for the full interest
rate again in order to meet the
new tax, or will be forced to ask
the property owner who has been
allowed postponement of interest
payments to pay up at least
enough of the interest to meet
the new tax,
It is said that there have been
wrangles in the Social Credit cau-
cus on the subject of debt reduc-
tion, and various schemes have
heen introduced, but they have
been discarded one by one, and
it is declared in informed circles
that the governn.ent has no sound
plan in mind now which it is
willing to attempt. Instead, the
moratorium is to be extended, to
postpone .the day of reckoning.
More than a year ago the
Mortgage Loans Association of
the province of Alberta, an or-
ganization of large mortgage
holders, realizing the serious
plight confronting many farmers,
offered a solution to the Govern-
ment and asked for the Govern-
ment’s co-operation. The Govern-
ment made no reply whatever to
the suggestion, and so last April
the association tried again lo ar-
range a conference. The Govern-
went still ignored the plea to ar-
range a conference on the sug-
gested basis of a soution to the
debt problem. ‘The only answer
so far has been an acknowledge-
ment of receipt of the letter by
the government.
The Mortgage Loans Associa-
lion’s letter repeated the sugges-
tion that with the Alberta gov-
ernment’s co-operation it could
put into effect a plan of farm
mortgage adjustment which
have helped Saskatchewan and
Manitoba farmers for the past
two years.
The letter restated the propos-
als put forward a year ago by
the association and ignored by
the Government, as follows:
“The interest rate on all farm
mortgages in Alberta to be re-
duced to six per cent effective
from Jan. 1, 1937. Further conces-
sions on arrears of interest to be
made on all our farm mortgages
where the accounts carried an
undue accumulation of arrears of
interest due to a guecession of
crop failures or by virtue of cir-
cumstances beyond the control of
the borrower, In addition, spe-
cial treatment for those districts
which had suffered most severely
from crop failures during the
period since 1931. Enable all
farm mortgage accounts to be re-
moved from the position of de-
fault, and provide for a new
agreement containing special pro-
all Mortgages
*
visions for the protection of the
farmer.”
The letter, whicli was sent di-
rectly to Premier Aberhart him-
self Feb, 9 of this year and tailed
to get more than a_ three-line
acknowledgement from his office,
said that the Provincial Govern-
inent’s co-operation would be re-
quired and that. although it
would be preferable to have the
Federal Government’s assistance,
too, that would not be ‘necessary
if the Provincial Government de-
sired to make arrangements with-
out. co-operation with the Domin-
ion.
Speaking in Edmonton Feb. 17,
Hon. James G. Gardiner, Domin-
ion Minister of Agriculture, said
that the Federal Government
would co-operate with Alberta in
a debt-reduction scheme “inside
of 24 hours” any time the Pro-
vincial Government desired. Co-
operation between Dominion. and
Saskatchewan has brought about
a $100,000,000 reduction in the
past two years in the debts of
farmers in Saskatchewan drouth
areas, he said, but Alberta prev
ferred to remain aloof.
Premier Aberhart replied the
following day, through the news-
papers, that Alberta would nor
enter any such plan “hecause
farmers of this province should
have a better deal than that; I am
persuaded that the farmers of Al-
berta would not he at all satis-
fied with the arrangements made
to assist them in the debt situa-
tion, as was granted in Saskat-
chewan.”
So exactly nothing
done to ease debts.

MAIN SOURCE OF INCOME
OTTAWA—For the world as a
whole, milk is prohably the main
source of farming income. In the
United Kingdom, states the Im-
perial Economic Committee, its
value exceeds that of any other
farm commodity; in the U.S. and
even in Canada, in certain years,
the value of the wheat crop is
less than that of dairy produc-
tion.

Record Entry of Horses May Be Passed
It is expected that over 600 horses will be sold in the auction
ring at the Lacombe Farmers’ Horse Sale to be held in the Central
Alberta Pavilion on March 15 and 16. Close to this number are now
entered, with entries still pouring in, and it is expected that the

of 540 horses were sold at last year’s sale.
are good stock, according to J. Fraser, secretary of the Sale, and
All the horses entered
will be well fitted for the sale.
No Half-Holiday
The by-law enforcing the Wed-
nesday half-holiday is to be sus-
pended on Wednesday, Mar, 16,
and all stores in the Town of La-
combe will be open all day to
provide shopping facilities for
the many visitors expected for
this event. A petition from the
Board of ‘Trade has been received
by Mayor E. H. Jones, regarding
the waiving of this by-law for
that date, and the petition has
been granted.
Enquiries have been received
from buyers all over the conti-
nent, from as far south as Cali-
fornia, from Vancouver and from
Montreal and the eastern States.
The horses entered for sale are
mostly, from the Lacombe dis-
trict, although entries have been
received from all parts of Alber-
ta, Saskatchewan and _ British
Columbia. Two carloads of
horses are to be shipped here for
the sale from the Peace River
district.
Market Is Steadying
While the prices this year on
the eastern market are below
those of last year, the market is
steadying, and it is expected that
fair prices will be realized.

Broomball Game

The Weatherman the past two

sports for the time being at least.
Ice at the rink is in bad shape:
curling has been suspended, and
skiers are blocking up their skis
for the summer,
A broombell fixture at the locai

on a rink of slush and water.
Lacombe, under the able leader-

of approximately 2-9.
Few turned out to see a group

savings certificates, only $700,000 is alloted for
their payment. ‘What a paradox, when .we con-

for, $22,184,084, is planned this year.
Ever since the present Government: was
elected to power, the business men of this prov-
ince have demanded, asked, begged and hoped for
the inception of a sane, business-like budget and
the scrapping of these social credit theories, It
appears. that the social credit theories have been
discarded, but what madness is here when we see
a Government, budgeting for a deficit, advocate
an increase of sessional indemnitics,. and allocate
#100000. for the upkeep of a “Social Credit
Board,” whose duties are. all-powerful but at the
same.‘time incomprehensible.

It Must Pay Its Way
Oca is again to be served with a daily air
mail service; according to a recent announce-
ment made in the Huuse of Commons by, Hon.
Cc. D. Howe, Minister of Transport. The service
will beconie a reality early in March, the minister
reported. No passengers will be carried in, the
inaugural flights. By this service, Canadians will
once more have the privilege of sending mail by
air, The service will stretch from coast to coast,
and planes will make the trip daily. to comply -
with the demand for speed,
Once before Western Canada had at its com-
‘mand air mail service. For the first month or
two of ‘this now discontinued utility the planes
were loaded to capacity with air mail. The ser-
vice, however, proved to be but a fly-by-night
success and was discontinued only after the Do-
minion Government had lost millions in its upkeep,
Just as private enterprise exists only through
the profit which that enterprise shows, so it
should be with this government project. If the
air mail service can operate on a sound and prof-
itable basis, its inauguration will prove to be a
great asset to the people of Canada. Should, how-
ever, this service follow in the steps of its pre-
decessor and show deficits amounting to enor-
mous sums, the utility becomes a liability and a
mill stone around the taxpayers’ necks.
: If the public desire air mail service, it is up
to them to support it, and if the project is not
supported, it is the government's duty to discon-
linue a service which, successful, would be a boon,
hut unsuccessful, would) mean an even greuter
burden on the taxpayers,
War Brought Closer Home
T anese territory is bringing to the citizens of
the rising sun the true meaning of war. It is an
entirely different proposition speaking of a war
that is a thousand miles away and having that
hell appear overhead. The moral victory scored
by the Chinese aviators is perhaps the greatest
blow struck by either side since the start of the
undeclared war.
HE appearance of Chinese planes over Jap-
It has been reported on numerous
that the citizens of Japan are not, nor have they
ever been, in favor of this war of penetration.
Having bombs dtopped on their very heads is un-
likely to change their viewpoint towards the con-
flict. Meagre reports from Tokio tell a tale of
trouble brewing. The Emperor and his cabinet
are not progressing favorably in their demands
with the Japanese diet. Fear is held in many
quarters of a repetition of the army uprising
which took place in February, 1906. The economic
position of the country, never strong at = any
time, has not heen improved with the constant
drain of keeping a large army in the field.
Altogether events are coming to a head in the
»ccasions
week, 1 heard the ‘following epigram, during the
While I was listening to a broadcast last
coursé of a play: “There oF gener everlasting
‘otal. + @ vost of rE

not even remember, but rase Stuck in nly} Board; new taxation ‘totalling
mind, and I felt that it was a profound truth that
this character had been made to utter... Whien-
ever way you turn this phrase it is- tru ty
is everiasting, or there is something everlasting
in beauty. 1 cannot’ subscribe 16 the cynicism of
Shakespeare in “Julius Caesar,’ when he makes
Mare Antony say, “The evil that men do lives after
ihem, the good is oft-interred with ‘their bones.”
Surely we remember the beautiful things in a per-,
son’s life. Don’t we recall with delight the beauty
of Queen Victoria’s love-story to the extinction of
some of her not so beautiful characteristics ? The
memory of those whose lives have- mn “things
‘of beauty” will remain with us pr cl God
gave us beauty to enjoy. Actuat beauty of face
and form, sich as Hilen of Troy possessed, and
other beauties, is not exactly what I have in mind
when I ‘think of beauty as everlasting. However,
empires have’ fallen:and the histary of the world
has been changed through the influence of some
woman endowed with unusual beauty and charm.
Haven't you ever had the experience of. a
moment of beauty that will live with you forever?
A glorious day, either glistening with myriads of
scintillating ropes of frost, fMtshing diamond- wise
in the hard, bright light of a: winter’s sun; or, a
bright blue day of summer, with little puffs of
feathered clouds, only enhancing the brilliant sum-
mer blue. Isn’t there such a day somewhere in
your memorv, which you will not forget—-a thing
of perfect beauty?
Let us look for a minute at beauty in the pres-
ent day world of art. For instance, the variety
sponsored by the Epstein. school of thought. Ep-
stein, not so long ago, created a huge monster in
stone, with distorted feet and hands, out of all
proportion, and had the temerity to call it
“Christ.” Will this hideous abomination live? I
doubt it. Let us turn to the beauty of some of
the sculptors. of. mediaeval tines. ‘Think of the
.statue of the Venus de Milo, which has lived
through hundreds: of years, with arms gone. and
not battered, yet a thing of beauty, everlasting In
its appeal.
What about some of the present day pichires,
for imstance, of the “surrealist” school, which look
fike nightmares on canvas, and then take a glance
at the beauty of some of the “old masters,” and
which do you think will remain with you? Per-
sonally I try to forget as soon”as possible these
obscene things musquerading under the name of
“Art,” and turn: with delight to anything of real
beauty, whether made by tad or man.
Think for a moment of the Taj Mahal, built in
the first half of the 17th century. - “Beauty as the:
poets had visioned iil. their utmost dreams made
manifest in plastic stone.” The pilgrimage to this
shrine of beauty has gone on uninterrupted dur-
ing the few hundred years it has stood, “Built as
a shrine for beauty, by an Indian Prince, to com-
memorate his wife, and to be the resting-place of
her beautifut body in death, To be worthy of
her, he called in craftsmen from all over the
then-known world, so that-.it should be perfect.
And so it stands today, near the old town of
Agra, above the Jumna, the acme of perfection
to which, thousands journey year after year, to
pay. tributes,

Many lives have been Jost in the striving to
obtain objects of beauty. Many world famous
jewels have had hectic careers through the ages.
Some may be lost te human ken for years, and
then turn up in some jealously guarded collec-
lion, their beauty having been glouted over for
years by a select few. Some of these jewels
have sinister histories, for instance, the “lope
Diamond”—it has left a trail of death and misery
wherever it has gone, and yet who would not de-
light to own this glorious gem? It is now in the
hands of an American woman.
There is an old proverb which people de-
light to bring forth anent beauty, that “Beauty -is
only skin-deep.” Of course I realize that this
is discussing a difierent angle of. beauty. - huinan
beauty. But, have you ever stopped to consider
that when the name of Marie Antoinette, for in-
stance, is mentioned, you do not think of her
extravagances, or her many glaring faults, but the
pathetic picture of a beautiful woman mounting
the guillotine comes tu our mind, thereby making
a martyr out of someone who at least contributed,
quite definitely, to the causes leading up to the
French Revolution Jn the same way do we re-
member the morbidity of the late Czarina of Hus-
sia, or the weakness of the Cairn?

SUNNY CREST. -— Saws are
humming these days and some
folks are wondering if they will
get their wood out of the bush
before the snow is all gonc. Birds
have been seen bathing in the
water trouguhs, and yes— some
adventurous gophers have been
seen out already.
Mrs. Powers, we hear, is down
with the ‘flu. Our other folks on
the sick list are coming along
fine. Mr. Mathews and Theodore
Fisher are around again. Harvey
isher is home from the hospital
and Miss Phyllis Kamlah is con-
valescing from her operaticn, at
the home of Mrs. Les Saunders,
Miss Dorothy Cowell has ob-
tained work at the home of Mrs.
Will Kinley in Meadowbrook.
Friends in this district extend
their deepest sympathy to Mr.
and Mrs. J. Couper of Meadow-
brook, who recently Jost their

Miss Doris Bradley borrowea
Rev. Mathews’ best bib and tuck-
er. We wondered what for. Then
we heard that Doris acted as
the “Minister” in a plav in tawn,
put on by the C.G.LT. to a crowd
of two hundred.
Mrs. Gee and Marion were Sun-
day visitors with Mrs. Jchnston.
Surprise for Miss Carter
Thursday afternoon, Feb, 24th,
the Sunbeams surprised Miss
Connie Carter, on the oceasjon of
her birthday, at the home of Mrs.
McNeil. Mrs. Dole supervised the
delicious supper. Kathleen Mc-
Neill found the money in the
birthday cake. and Hazel Woods
found the safety pin, Someone
cither swallowed the button or
was smart enough to hide it, so
no one knew who was to be the
“old maid.”
Miss Carter was _ presented
with a dainty tea cup and saucer,
and also given the “Royay
Bumps.”
Mr. Mattie had charge of the
ehurch service last Sunday. The
hymns rendered by the quartet
were exceptionally fine. Come
and hear them next Sunday.
Mrs. Dole’s class of Sunbean»
sang “I Shall Not Be Moved” and
each’ member put her contribu.
tion into the Mission Box that
keeps a “Worker” working on
the foreign field.
The men were busy with the
grader last Saturday on the road
from the Sunnv Crest school to
the Gull Lake Trail.

he is. And before you leave, take a good look at

As no mumps had appeared for
some time, it was thought that
the epidemic had waned, but
what do you know—a couple of
married ladies, a couple of single
ones and a little girl broke out
with thick jaws Sunday morn-

many more to be troubled with

that very few are troubled with

Boys have often been left in

was turned last Friday, when a
party of seven left Tees for u

boys and three voung ladies were
in the party. Although the driver
was good enough to take the
girls, he received a cold shoulder
there and promptly gathered up

dance and came home, leaving
the girls stranded. . The girls got

ONLY 2.54 PER CENT YIELDED
BY OLL INDUSTRY
Although the net earnings of
the petroleum industry in 1936
showed a gain over 1935, the re-
turn on invested capital stood at
only 2.54 per cent, according to
the American Petroleum Institute.
Earnings of the industry as a
whole have not exceeded five per
cent in any year since 1921, and
for three out of the past six
year's the industry accumulated
deficits.
For the 16 years from 1921 to
1936 average annual earnings
were only 1,43 per cent of the
invested capital. Although the
industry expanded, increased
competition, low prices, rapid
obsolescence of equipment, and
moupting taxes have tended to
keep earnings at a low level.
For this 16-year period the
average capital investment was
$10.776,828,000; average earnings,
$154,536,580; average return, 1.43
per cent,

also his offspring (Acts 17:28).
One of the correlative passages

the true image of God.”

The World of Wheat
By MAJOR BH. L. STRANGE
“There is not a single country
where the entire population en-
joys a standard of nutrition ade-
quate for the
health.”
This is the conclusion just ar-
rived at by the Special Nutrition
Cominittee of the League of Na-
lions. Sir John- Orr, probably
the world’s greatest expert on nu-
tion, last year came to the same
conclusion. “Millions are un-
derfed!” he said.
Farmers are eager to supply
the extra food needed by city
people, in return for which city
people are eager to supply the
additional goods and commodi-
ties which farming people so
badly need. Why are not these
simple exchanges taking place?
Some say it is Decause the Capi-
talistic System, the Economic
System, the methods of Distribu-
tion and Marketing, of Transpor-
tation and of Banking, have
broken down; but kis cannot be,
for all these concerns and busi-
nesscs are most eager to bring
about the needed exchanges.
In my humble opinion it is ac-
tually Statesmanship the World
Over that has broken down.
Those in charge of our affairs,
by means of high tariffs, quotas
and other restrictions, are cur-
tailing the exchange of farm
products for city goods, feeling,
apparently, that the less we all
buy and ‘sell somehow the more
we shall all have. What a sad
and pathetic fallacy. If it were
not so tragic it would be just
silly.
maintenance. of
Following factors have tended
to raise prices:
U.S. Government intends releas-
ing gold to broaden credit basis;
Moisture situation unfavorable in
Tunis; Canada imports United
States wheat; Germany - buys
30,000 tons of Argentine barley;
Many sections of Argentine very
dry and conditions for corn crop
unfavorable; Japan’s refusal to
disclose warship program will
probably start armament build-
ing race.
Following factors have tended
to lower prices :
Rains favor U.S. winter wheat
belt; Beneficial showers in Al-
geria; All Indian crops doing
well; Japan’s rice supply in-
creased; Spring ploughing com-
mences in Russia; Favorable
weather in Italy allays fears of a
wheat shortage; Yugo-Slavia win-
ter crops in good condition; In-
creased exports of soy beans
from Manchuria.

Ships Clock Won
1714 Prize
LONDON—At Greenwich (Eng-
land) Observatory is a ship’s
chronometer, still in working
order, which won in 1714 a prize
of £20,000 offered by the British
Government for gqny instrument
which should prove itself capable
of determining a ship’s. position
at sea after six weeks’ voyage.
In those early 18th = century
days no one ever expected a
clock to keep accurate time on
the high seas, for a pendulum
operated timepiece stopped every
moment or two owing to the
ship’s motion; and other clocks
were not accurate enough, even
on land, to fulfill the conditions
laid down by the Government.
One of these conditions limited
the maximum error—fast or slow
-—to three seconds per day! The
winning time-piece, however, did
not become popular on account of
its high cost and intricacy. A
dupliate, made to special order,
cost £450,
Follow Same Lines
Not for another 50 years did
an improved type of time-piece
appear, and all modern chronom-
eters follow closely the same gen-
eral lines, Today the captain’s
much-prized time-piece resembles
a high-grade watch but rather’
larger in size. It is mounted in
special bearings which keep the
mechanism always horizontal ir-
respective of the ship’s move-
ments. A special type of one
ment mechanism is used, alo
with the grooved conical “wheel”
or “fusee” to compensate for the
slight differencés in the main-
spring tension.
A chronometer, such as is used
én Atlantic liners, operates with
amazing accuracy, and often
keeps within a maximum error of
one second per 24 hours for six
‘months on end, despite wide
variations in temperature and
the roughest of weather at sea.
The, bottom of Lake Superior,
which is 1180 feet below. the sur-
face in some places, is 578 feet
below sea level.
