The: new rate of 52 mills means a considerable redetion in taxes to the large property holder.

In addition to the four mill reduc- tion in the urban school rate, there is a reduction of approximately $5 an acre on the assessment of farm lands for school purposes. The mill rate is the same as last year in this case, 10 mills.

Every year for the past number of years the tax rate in Bassano has been reduced, In 1924 the rate was 664 mills, and this year it is 52 mills,

Reduction for Payment

A substantial reduction is also given for those who pay their taxes by a certain date. This amounts to 10 per cent if paid before June 30th; 8 per cent if paid before July 31st; and 5 per cent if paid before Auguét 3ist. Thrifty ones will pay their taxes early and get the benefit of the 10 per cent reduction.

It is now fairly well recognized by students of international relations that one of the cuuses of war is to be found in the constant predictions of war, in references to ‘‘the next war,” and surmises as to the varying forms which hostilities will take when nations again take up arms against each other.” Those who constantly predict war are, says a college president, “not simply reporters of probable events, they are actual causes of war, gencrally among the chief causes.” ‘That is, talk war and you have war.

Recognizing the correctness of this view, statesmen, and ‘eading men in all countries cultivate the habit of talking peace instead of war, the world will have peace. “The oftener world peace is discussed among serious winded’ men and women,” says a United States paper, “the betier the prospect that war can be at last conquered,” and it adds that the more intelligent leaders of democracy the world over can be brought together to consider steps for peace. As they gather from time to time at Geneva the brighter becomes the prospect that ultimately—perhaps | sooner than most of us now beleve—war will be abolished.

it is equally true that if the

War after ali is largely a statc of mind: Let the people munity or country begin to take a pessimistic view of things and constantly harp upon business depression ana hard times, and it is inevitable that depression and hard times will come. Equally true is it that whon people talk prosperity and adopt an optin:istic tone, a revival in business and in; dustrial activity follows If, instead of thinking of “the next war" and talking war, peoy.¢ think and talk peace, then peace rather than war will prevail.

It has been reported that the Supreme Court of the United (tates has setthd cne hundred disputes between States, and in Canada our Supreme Court and the Judicial Coramittee of the Privy Council, have settled numerous disputes between I'rovinces and between Provinces and Dominion. Why should not disputes between nations be settled in a like sensible way? There is quite as much justification for two States or two Provinces to aec lar e war and fly at each other's throats as there is for two nations to take such insane ection.

War is a stupid business, It settles no issues. It comes about when a little group of cren get into a quarrel with another little group. The law does not allow individuals to riurder each other because they have a quar-

rel, and internation! law should, in. like manner, outlaw war as 1 means of settling disputes betw een nations. War between nations is evidence tha: the leaders»in these countries have not sufficient: intelligence or sufficient patierice to find a wey out, so they select the finest men on both sides and set them pounding each viher into the mud and blood and blowing each other to pits. .,The side that can stand this.the longer is the wiser and gets its own way, There is no reason employed in the settlement. ae Howard, Writish Ambassador at Washington, in a recent ne wink Re Drover 4n.m Man that if: bie oeuatty: gote, W Wen

FIGHTING FOR BABY’S HEALTH

Young Mother

The young mother has a constant) care in looking after the welfare of | her little ones. Childhood ailments} come on so sudden—sometimes with- | out a minute’s warning-—the mother | may have.a very sick baby on her hands before help can be obtained. That is unless she has a remedy in the house which she can safely give the baby for any of the many minor ailments of babyhood and childhood.

Such a remedy is found in Baby's Own Tablets. Thousands of mothers throughout the country always. keep a box of the Tablets on hand and they proclaim them to be without an equal for sweetening baby’s stomach; regulating his bowels, and thus driv- ing out constipation and indigestion, colds and simple fevers, and making the dreaded teething period: easy.

Baby’s Own Tablets are an abso- lutely safe remedy. They are guar- anteed to be free from opiates or any other narcotic drug which. are so harmful to the future welfare of the baby.

The ex- periment, performed privately at Tra- cey, Cal,, was designed to prove the possibility of using a parachute for disabled planes to insure safety of passengers. A Jenny biplane, piloted by E. J, McKeown, was used in the test.

The plane dropped about 2,000 feet with its motor idle, when the huge parachute, more than 100 feet in dia- meter, opened out, McKeown’ stayed with the ship as its speed rapidly slackened. He said he felt only «6 slight jar when the plane landed and the folds of the parachute enveloped him. The biplane was not damaged except for a minor bend in the tail skid.

Sending Mésages By By Beam System Is Marvel Of Speed

What beam wireléss has done for

long-distance communication was ex-

plained by J. H. Thompson, ‘chief engineer of the Marconi Wireless Company, to the members of the

Montreal branch of the Engineering Institute of Canada, recently. Using slides, the speaker produced a gra- phic picture showing a telegraph op- erator at Drummondville, Quebec, using an instrument resembling an ordinary typewriter and sending mes- sages at the rate of 150 words to the minute, to be received almost instant- ly by an operator at. Dorchester, Eng- land. '

Mr. Thompson illustrated the pro-

by showing the crude instruments used inthe carly days of wireless, the progress having been so rapid | that equipment of stations used 15 years ago is of no use today. The | beam system itself, he said, was the | result of experiments by which all the energy available at the sending station was successfully sent in one | direction thus establishing a beam of energy.

The shareholders of the company now number about 15,000, he said, “and after providing for the depre- ciation of the fleet, and paying the dividend on the preference shares, we recommend a dividend of six per cent. on ordinary shares and the balance carried forward,

“There was,” he said, “ a slight in- crease in the number of passengers travelling to and from the United States of which we secured a fair share,” and from this point he went on to state that “we have, for some time past, been giving our most seri- ous consideration to the important question of the construction of a new express mail vessel so that we may continue to maintain the position and traditions of the White Star Line in the North Atlantic trade.

Lord Kylsant announced that the company has under construction at Belfast a “passenger motor vessel of over 26,000 tons which we expect to put into commission in the ball of 1929.

“The White Star Line,” he contin- | ued, “is carrying a larger share, ot |this class of travel than any other company. Passengers in this tourist category are assured comfort and good catering combined with excep- tionally low rate passage money for the return voyage.”

Lady Haig was present and said this would have met with the approv- al of her husband, whose desire would have been, not a statue of himself, but that the men who had fought in the war should be helped.

It is understood that the resolution and Lady Haig’s remarks were not intended to deprecate the idea of a

HEALTH SPRVICE of the CANADIAN MEDICAL FLIES

ASS'N

Insects play an important part in ithe spread of disease. Tyhpus fever which was also known 4g jail or ship fever, is spread by the body louse and has disappeared ag a result of greater personal cleanliness. Yellow fever and malaria are spread by cer- tain kinds of mosquitos.

In Canada our chief problem, from the standpoint of disease amongst human beings, is the common house fly. Because the fly is covered with minute hairs, and because of its hab- it of lighting and feeding on all sorts of filth, the fly carries and transfers filth from one place to an-

; other.

Flies feed on anyfhing, incl&ding body waste and secretions. When they light on such matter, it sticks to them and they carry it to their next point of rest, which may be the milk jug, or the food on the table. If the filth to which they have been contained disease germs they carry these along with the filth,

The fly feeds by sucking up its food. If the food is dry the in- sect discharges fluid from its stomach to moisten it, and thus it passes out some of the filth it has previously fed upon. to whait- ever it now seeks to eat,

Flies breed in any collection of waste organic matter, such ag garbage, but preferably on horse manure. Such breeding should

be prevented by proper covers and regular removal. Outside privies should be screened to prevent en- trance of flies, Houses should be screened. Flies should never be allowed ‘to light on tthe’ baby or his food; they are frequently respon- sible for the spread of summer diarrhoea.

Flies are really dangerous, They do spread disease and so, should be destroyed.

“Agestated in a previous article, the department does not approve of this company’s method of selling hogs; giving an order for an animel without having seen it is not g.0d business. Officials of the depart- ment have seen the hogs at Coutts and report them a poor lot and many of them, including the boars, a very inferior bunch of pigs.

“The price being paid for these pigs is altogether too high, and the taking of these young gilts depends upon the ability of the company to organize other clubs and sell the stock again at a greatly advanced price. The contract states that the gilts will be taken back at a

certain price if up to a certain stand- |

Rubber Fenders and Trick Car- buretor Some Of Newest Spring, which so often is credit- with inspiring a young man’s fancy with amorous thoughts, holds its inspiration for many other types as well. One is the itinerant auto- mobile inventor who at this séason responds to a renewed urge to seek recognition of his originality-in the offices of the motor ear engineers. ; This throng of inventive optimists again descends upon engineers with usual insistence. They come from every direction for personal inter-

merable original proposals. Here are some of their startling ideas:

“Gosh! I liked him,” said Keith, grinning; “He told us some of the richest stories I ever heard.”

“I couldn't stand him and his. stor- ies,” Jack said with warmth, “he's the sort that make war, he loves it, you can see that—but you'll notice he will never do any of the fighting. It looks as if the thing had to be finished up now that we are in it.”

Jack remembered Helmi’s outbreak of rage when Keith’s name was men- tioned, and hastened to say,: “I hope Y’ll find her before I go.”

So, gradually, the thought of en- listing took shape in Jack's’ mind, It was with him when he stepped into the white bath-tub and enjoyed the luxury it afforded, with its shining appointments, snowy towels, foaming soap. But he couldn’t forget what Private Crowe had told about the dirt, the mud, the lice, the scratchy inderwear. He was glad to think of the wealth coming.to him from the gold mine, for he craved all the lux- uries of life, and he wanted to to give them to other people. He loved white sheets, smooth and satiny, and beautiful rugs with deep rich color- ings, music, pictures; but especially did he want these things for Helmi, who had such a love for beauty.

No matter where Jack's thoughts began they would soon come back to Helmi. He wondered if she had got indred dollars all right, At

Hazard Of Navigation

Fathometer’ Records Irregularities. Of Sea Bed and Depth Of Water

Science has handed a “cane” to ocean liners and now. the . “blind” greyhounds of the Atlantic are tap- ping their way unerringly along the sea bottom to port through darkness, storm and fog.

The device is called a fathometer. Tests conducted aboard the North German Lloyd liner “Columbus” have proved that it has removed another hazard of navigation.

The fathometer stretches a long finger of sound to the bottom of the ocean. It is an electrical echo which records the depth of water and the irregularities of the sea bed.

On the pilot’s deck is an elaborate system of charts showing the depth of the channel and indicating by a line the best route into port. So long as the fathometer shows that the ves- sel is following that line the captain can proceed confidently through the blackest night. Y *
