A _ The Victory Meat and Fish Market o 10. R. SENDALL 1370 WESTON ROAD Phone Us a Trial Order PAGE FOUR The annual Winter Carnival at Banff, which was concluded teâ€" cently, was marked by the fact that the visitors at this mountain reâ€" sort played a prominent part in all the sports to a much greater extent than in former years. It was acâ€" claimed as the finest in the history of Banff. For weeks the town gradually put on her carnival garb, and on the opening day the streets presented a festive appearance. One of the most impressive ceremonies in connection with the carnival was the resignaâ€" tion from the Queenship of the carâ€" nival by Miss Mary Cross of Calâ€" gary. Stoney Indians in their picâ€" turesque tribal costumes began a hunt for the new Queen, who was finally found in a gaily bedecked teepee. Miss Emily Mason, of Calâ€" gary, was chosen for the position of honor for the coming year.

The race was one of the hardest fought in history. Cordingly‘s team of huskies ended the race almost exâ€" hausted.. His lead dog broke down and was carried to the finish line on the sled. Ike Mills, of Banff, who was picked as winner of the race, was also a hero. His dogs were attacked by town dogs at the outskirts of Calgary and fought one of the fiercest battles in the history of northern trails. Mills and his dogs were badly bitten but they stuck to the trail despite the fact that hours were lost in repairing torn harness. He crossed the line and Upâ€"toâ€"Date Motor Equipment Faneral Directors 1271 WESTON ROAD Phone Weston 403 was given a rousing recéption. The Strongheart Trophy, donated by the Trimbleâ€"Muffin _ Moving Picture Company, was the trophy for which the race was run. Skiâ€"joring, skating both figure and speed, skiâ€"jumping, and every type of winter sport featured the carnival. Visitors took keen delight in the excellent toboggan slide that has been recently erected, away up on Sulpher mountain. It is the most picturesque slide of its kind in the Dominion. The start can be easily reached by motor car by following the road leading to the upper Hot Springs. The whole slide is of about 19 per cent. grade, but large stretches reach a 35 perwent. grade.

Government There is a merry row ensuing beâ€" tween the British newspapers controlâ€" led by Lord Rothermere and_ Lord Beaverbrook. The newspapers of the former are attacking the government, which. they accuseâ€"of inaction in the matter of formulating a new and popâ€" ular policy and predict that the Baldâ€" win administration will be swept out Training Women Settlers It is announced by the Overseas Setâ€" tlement Department of the Dominion Office that stepsâ€"are to be taken to set up a training .centre at which womâ€" en ‘can receive instructions. in houseâ€" hold work with a view to emigration toâ€" Australia. ~The work willâ€" include, in addition to instruction in dairying and poultryâ€"keeping, special study of houseâ€"wifery, the care and manageâ€" ment of farm livestock and the cultivaâ€" tion of ruit. _ Equal Voting Rights Over 130 members of the British Parliament have sent a memorial to the Prime Minister asking the Governâ€" ment to take the earliest opportunity to carry out its pledge to give equal voting rights to men and women beâ€" fore the next general election.

The Inquisitive Bump Even in the British House of Comâ€" mons, where business is carried on with expediency, there are members whose inquisitive bump is overâ€"develâ€" oped. A member belonging to the smallest party in the House has 662 questions to his credit while a Socialist has 1129 to ‘what is sometimes called his discredit. ;. It is doubtful if «any Canadian M.P.sor M.P.P. is anywhere within sight of these totals. Fishing Fleet in Danger The largest halibut fishing fleet in the world was in grave danger of anâ€" nihilation lastâ€"week end when it was struck by a gale and snowstorm of unâ€" usual fury which swept across the north Pacificâ€"and threatened to wipe out everything.in its path. Of this fleet of 270 vessels and about one thousand men, many of the smaller craft were lost.during the early stage of the storm, and it is reported that probably 150 might never reach port. Manned mostly by Scandinavian seaâ€" men, the halibut boats are well accusâ€" tomed to the gales which often lash the Alaskan coast, but seldom have Newspapers Attack British The total distance which will be traâ€" velled by the expedition is estimated at about 15,500 miles of which only 900 miles willâ€"be made by sea.

It is inâ€" tended that this change would eliminâ€" ate at least one avenue of useless exâ€" penditure. _ Income Taxes In a discussion in the House of Comâ€" mons on income.tax,. Mr. R. C. Matâ€" thews suggested that the tax be col< lected at the source as in Britain. The portion of the income tax that is colâ€" lected at the souce in Britain is about 70 per cent,. It is collected by deducâ€" tion.. Wherever possible a person payâ€" ing income to another is required to withhold the income tax therefrom and pay it over to the British %ovérn- ment. The tax is assessed on the payâ€" er, and not on the recipient of the inâ€" come. % Russia and Britain Russia has replied to Britain‘s proâ€" test against Soviet propaganda in the United Kingdom and the reply is arâ€" gumentative and asks for specific inâ€" stances of Soviet activity. Historians say that Russia has been twisting the lion‘s tail for four hundred years by "repeated and almost unendurable proâ€" vocation," and that British firmness in g'elzilanding a stop to it is amply justiâ€" ied. provinces Maritime Rights The Maritime Rights Commission has "completedits ‘report and Â¥ecomâ€" mendations include increases"in‘ subâ€" Sidies to New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, reduction in freight rates and numerous other suggestions for‘the aleviation ‘of conâ€" ditions prevailing in the Maritime Toronto Phone 0131M The greatest argument these tests produced against popular broadcasting on low wavelengths was the enormous "skips" or jumps made by the waves before they could be caught by a reâ€" ceiver. Second only to this was the increasing fading which accompanied the decrease in wavelength. _ "I know of no more eerie experiâ€" ence," he says. "The very thought that one‘s voice which will not carry more than a couple" of hundred yards unâ€" ‘aided, can be flung across half the ‘world without any‘visible means, ‘and picked up perfectly by millions of lisâ€" teners} is‘ sufficient in itself to give a poor, simple old Scot mike fright. _ It is no easy task to call up smiles which are unseen and laughter which is unâ€" heard." Phonograph Industry Buried Under j ‘ Radio 1e Figures issued by the department of commerce give mute testimony as to the cause of Thomas A. Edison‘s reâ€" cent complaint against the radio inâ€" dustry. The figures are the results of data collected at the regular biâ€"cenâ€" nial census of manufacturers for 1925, and show a decided drop in the phonoâ€" graph industry. _ eut a According to these official figures, last year‘s production of phonographs, including dictating machines, suffered a loss in value of more than 60 per cent. of that of 1928. Parts and acâ€" cessories dropped more than 30 per cent. in the same period. The only increased revenue phonoâ€" graph manufacturers enjoyed in this period. was from radio sets, cabinets and parts. which they put in. . The total increase of manufacturers in the radio industry, as apart from the phonograph business, was 215.5. per cent. in the two year period. _ _ These figures were collected before | the recent innovations were made in | phonograph â€" manufactureâ€"those in | which radio principles were introduc-; ed. : These innovations brought conâ€"| siderable improvement in the phono-', graph business.. But what effect it had in bringing it back to the old | standards will not be known for some | time. | General Electric Tests Show Little‘ Hope for Shortâ€"Wave Broadcasting The difficulties attending broadcastâ€" { ing on shortâ€"wave lengths, for which’ many broadcasters have been hoping,i have been brought out strikingly in | the tests completed by radio engineers | at station WGY. | South African Diamond Rush The rush of 17,000 runners to peg out claims on South Africa‘s new diaâ€" mond fields, ended in a fiasco. This diamond rush, believed to be the last in South Africa, because of the govâ€" ernment‘s proposal for the control of alluvial diamonds, brought together 17,000 runfiers‘ including â€" Olympic champions, famous crossâ€"country runâ€" ners from Natal and four noted sprintâ€" ers from ‘Australia. Owing to some misunderstanding, : however, the left section of the line up broke away to the diggings before the ‘signal . was given and began to peg: out claims. The police were powerless to restrain the Ccrowd, and when all ‘the staking had been done they had to set to work and remove! all‘ the pegs set out. The rush was declared void and another will be organized. Reports show that the diggings are extremely rich. British . Goyernment .Win:.____â€" TheBritish Government was awardâ€" ed judgment on the,claim of the Rouâ€" manian Oil Gompany for damages for destruction of oil property at a critical pegiod of, the war to prevent their fallâ€" ing: into, the. hands of the Germans. The company, whiestimated the damâ€" age at $150,000,000, were informed by a War Office representative at the time that it would be compensated for the damages, but the counsel for the company admitted his word was not binding on the British Government. With these important difficulties there is no hope for shortwave broadâ€" castingâ€"at least, below 109 meters. Twirling his crooked stick, doing the highland fling, casting a wink or raisâ€" ing a knowing eyebrow are lost to the radio audiences. Lauder does these things even in the studio, with only one or two looking on, but he is ill at ease the while. \‘Labrador Peninsular Controversy | "The! decision of the Privy.Council as to‘ the position: of the â€"boundary of the Labrador pensinular between Quebec and Newfoundland is expected this week. The two governments of the Province of Quebec and Newfoundland ‘could not dgree as to which had the right‘s to the valuable timber land and mineral wealth in the Labrador hinterâ€" land, so they asked the Privy Council to settle the matter for‘them." ‘ Amendment of Liquor Law Five bills have been presented by Hon. R. W. Crai% K.C., Attorneyâ€"Genâ€" eral for Manitoba, to the provincial government, which call for the amendâ€" ments of the existing liquor laws. He stated that 75 per cent. of the trouble of liquor law enforcement were due to the illicit sale of beer mainly by brewers who abused the privileges granted by the Government Liquor Control Act. He stressed the necesâ€" sity of establishing disciplinary maâ€" chinery in order to meet the situation. Shortage of Canadian Apples The De%artment of Customs and Exâ€" cise has been informed that the supâ€" ply of Canadian apples is so reduced that there is no longer substantial quantities available to the trade. A bulletin has been issued advising Cusâ€" tom‘s officers that the dumping duty will not longer apply to apples until further notice.
