FRIDAY, AUGUST 7th, 1931 A WISE DELAY °° The city council acted wisely in holding the bylaw. providing for the appointment By B. Goedike as city engineer until a definite form of contract between the engin- _ eer and the corporation is signed. As Al- d n Boddy pointed out, it was as much in the interests of the new -engineer as those of the city to have a definite agree- ment as to his status. Criticism has been invited, against the former engineer, largely on ac- count of the fact that there was no agree- ment with him such as'Ald. Boddy now sug- gests, providing for the definition of the or {engineer's rights to act as consulting en- eer for bodies other than the corporation lof the city, Asa safeguard against future oun and possible criticism, the council 'was wise in holding up the bylaw until these 'matters can. bé straightened out to the 'lsatistaction of both parties, and arranged iin such a way that their will be no future ~ jcause for disagreement as to the duties, % rights and privileges of the city and the engineer. 1 . CHEAPER STEAMSHIP TRAVEL . Announcements have been made of dras- dic reductions in ocean steamship fares from this continent to Great Britain and - Europe. These reductions have practically b forced on the great steamship com- i , for the practical suspension of im. migration to this continent, and the world- ~ wide depression, have reduced the number of passengers crossing the ocean to only a small fraction of what would be considered normal flow of traffic. The price reductions * have been madé in the hope that business will thereby be stimulated, and that more will' take advantage of the bargain For those: who have suffered little from 8 ocean travel was never so pactive, from the standpoint of cost, as is to-day. But unfortunately, the ma- prity of those who for years have dreamed making a trip to Great Britain and Surope, and who might have taken advan- e of the cheap rates, are in the very lass of le who have s om the depression that trip have had to be postponed Nevertheless, the reduction in the costs ; ommon with other luxuries 'whi in cme down in price in order to find BROTHERHOOD IN HIGH PLACES eives & setback hen the Cana- g: spirit of hatred andéon- : JE rk in high Fou.

It would be wiser therefore, to fit ourselves or those dependent upon us in the best manner possible that during this early sphere of life the high- est record possible to the indi- yidual may be attained, then with 'this as a background health and God willing, will be retained for the individual penefit for many Years to come, The physical strength of the individual decides the limitations and it should be that these limi- tatigne are sufficiently recognized that the person is not overtaxed mentaly or physically. Corrected defects will then be readily un- derstood, by eliminating handi- caps to speed up the efficiency of the individual. To be a successful reader you must have good eyesight. To have good eyesight it may be ne- cessary to wear glasses.

The government has been paying a bounty of $3. per nose for hair seals slaughtered off the west coast. The hair seals have been proved to be destructive to the salmon run and other valyable commercial fish and for that reason the government rewards hunters who 'reduce the ards. The noses are sent in as proof that the seals have been kill- | the past fhe Indians, who have bets, the, chief claimants for re- ae dent a bal vo their consign- ¥o anal Mrs. Geo, 'Johnson, Miss M.

The pay- ment was deferred, Meanwhile reports brought back by sea lion hunters helped to solve the mystery. Sea lions are slaught- red off the west coast as well as ped seals because of the destruction they cause among salmon and other varieties of fish. The sea lion hun- |: ters were surprised to find large numbers of 'sea lion whose snouts had been cut off. Examina- tion subsequently showed that the noses of hair seals and young bea lions are practically identical. Ex- perts have discovered a means of distinguishing them, however, and all noses received in future will not only be counted but subjected to a severe test. The Indians have been warned that sea lion snouts will not receive a bounty when Sayueraded as hair seals, i JUST A SNACK Bangor, Me. -- Steve Storosky, Russian woodsman, dropped into a local restaurant for a bite to eat.
