J. Bell, Deputy Minister of Health, "Reports received by me today," stated Dr, Bell, "indicate that, over the Province as a whole, new cases are much less numerous, and that those cases which have been down with the disease are recovering. A great many 'people who have been affegted are now sufficiently recover- ed to go back to business, and in the majority of centres industry is once 'more seeing daylight ahead as far as staffs are concerned." iddle-age Suffer Differing from the epidemic of fen years ago, the present infection, Dr. Bell points out, has taken its toll largely from those who were past middle age. In the former epidemic the major number of fatalities oc- curred in the younger middle-age groups. Dr. Bell declared himself as in no position to state whether another flu wave would follow the present one. "I think we have passed the peak in this one," said he. "That's all I can say. ...

Gruesome Details as Part of Lessons Elkhart, Ind, Jan. 10.--As the pro- secution in the trial of Harvey L.

The bones, still bearing the stains of lime, were found last Oc- tober, % The high school students who were brought to the courtroom as a part of their lessons in civics, took chil- dish delight in the serious proceedings on which the life of Smith depends.

There were no railroads in the Cariboo then; no automobiles; no tele- phones and, of course, no radios. As a judge of cattle he was in a class by himself and his word was law, Put Johnny Wilson's monop- oly was not begrudged, "He had a smart way but he was a white man', the old-time cattlemen will tell you, By paying a small amount down the cattle buyer secured the entire heef crop of the Chilcotin-- at a price set by himself, In September, ahead of his cow- boys, the cattle king would take his second huggy ride through the district and after the first week-end converging on the then nearest rail- way point at Asheroft, cattle flow- ed In a steady stream.
