Tueaday. Sept. 13, 1927 PLATFORM IS NECESSARY In addressing Liberals in England recently Lloyd George showed how lack of a clear-cut policy had sent them into the political wilderness for a number of years. In British Columbia the Conservatives have been in the political wilderness for a similar reason. Possibly a definite policy of a constructive nature will be evolved.- Then if the electorate can be satisfied with the policy and the sin cerlty of the party advocating it, there is a possibility of returning Britain's former Premier ridiculed the idea of fighting for general Liberal principles and equally foolish is it for B.C. Con servatives to fight for general Conservative principles. Stock political phrases mean nothing nowadays. It will be expected that lion, b. t. Toimie will have some new ideas on government which he would like to express and to implement in legislation. If he has no. ideas, why leader? Possibly he is abiding his time but he has already fought two by-elections without any brilliant ideas being forthcoming. Perhaps it is the general election' he is waiting for when he, it is presumed, will be a candidate. Cash buyers sometimes wonder if thefr business is appreciated by merchants as much as it should be. ELECTION AT NELSON If no general election is called in the meantime, it is probable that very soon the election to fill the vacancy in Nelson caused by the death of the late Premier Oliver will take place. The govern ment wiu go into the contest backed by all the prestige of a new premier who has won his first election with a large majority. opposed by a leader without a constructive policy, it should be easy for him to win. Should Dr. Toimie decide to submit to the 1 - A il il . ... . ... ' . . . electors mere ine piaiiorm on wnicft he will make his debut as provincial leader, the outcome may be different! Political moves are always uncertain but the government does notfceem to be show ing any signs of timidity and that is half the battle. Some people seem to expect to get to heaven because their wives go to church. SPORT THIS WINTER Among the sports to be played here this winter it is presumed that badminton will be prominent Last year it was allowed to almost disappear owing to lack of interest on the part of members of the various clubs. As this is the time of year when a move is usually made to revive it, possibly it is wall to consider what steps will be taken to place it on a proper footing. It is not possible' for everyone to play basketball and other sports are not suited for indoors. That leaves badminton as practically the only sport available to a great many people during the winter when the weither makes outdoor exercise unpleasant. In the past there have been courts at the Anglican Cathedral, the I.O.D.E-Hall.'the Regiment and the De Luxe Hall on Third Avenue. There is a closed season for grouse but yet the grousers will carry on much as usual. EXERCISE A NECESSITY Irj a city such as this where damp spells prevail, some form of indoor exercise is almost a neeessity. To do physical jerks at home for half an hour at a stretch is a rather dull way of taking exercise and never quite fills the bill. There is little exhiliration to it People get flabby and soft and unable to do their work well. They become an easy prey to disease, sometimes with fatal result?. Taking regular exercise by playing an exhilirating game is the sensible thing to do and badminton serves the purpose well. Goats can eat anything, but don't be a goat. Some people are terribly ignorant. Some don't even know how to eat corn on the cob. 11 1 Engagement and wedding rings of value and distinction Engagement and diamcmi-ict uAim, ringj, The two nuptial rings you give her can never be replaced.
