DAILY EDITION Tuesday, Nov. 27, 1928 USE OF TITLES j Paderewski, the pianist, is not onjy a great musician,! but also he shows signs of greatness in his character.: When advertising his concerts he drops his title. Instead of styling himself Sir Ignace Paderewski, Knight of the Grand Cross of the Order of the British Empire, he calls himself simply Mr. Paderewski. Another British knight who also refuses to commercialize his honors is Sir Kabindranath Tagore, poet of India. He speaks of himself simply as Dr. Tagore. : Canada happily does nottraffic in titles any more. Np : person now is able to win a title by contributing heavily to ! political party funds. In spite of the efforts of a few to ' revive the receiving of titles, the spirit oi the country is against it, and we hppe will remain so. PREACHING TO THE PEOPLE Wo do not often preach to the people of Prince Rupert and district, but now and then we try to give them something to think about. When we do we have the satisfaction of knowing that the message is not wasted. We are able to preach to a congregation in one evening 20 times larger than all the preachers in Prince Rupert put to gether. Of this issue, there will be printed approximately! 2500 papers, many oLthem read by anything from one to 10 persons. Suppose an average of four to a paper, and Nve have a congregation of 10,000. That is a pretty good congregation and it is available every day. Archbishop DuVernet, when he was alive, one of the finest and best educated men the country has produced, realized the value of the newspaper to the clergyman. Ten years . ago when the plague of Spanish influenza ' struck a 11,1" 1 1 1 rince lUipert ana .ftSfMJIMJW we closed, The Daily TJews asKeil the Archmsnop 11 he would like to give a messageJtfl&hjJjeple that would take the place of the Sunday sermoA. iil4idio, and from that time on he formed the habit of sending out through the columns of this paper spc?al messages to the people at Christmas, at EastexyQ'r or-aliy spicl occasions, and we were always glad to page Ch-message op. because it was a real one. Many of these messages, inspired by these occasions have beefr iricluded in the book of his writings recently published. 4 Only a few clergymen have the power of thinking or the art of expression such as had the revered Archbishop, so that their writings are not as valuable. Very few people realize the value of the press as a medium of reaching the people. They are not men of broad vision, and naturally a congregation of 100 is their limit. The result is that it usually falls to a layman to do the preaching through the press.

An Informal meeting, at which, about a dozen invited guests were pre ent, was held at the boms of George E. Keith on Thursday eve-ning, with the object in viy of taking initial steps in the forming of an organized branch in Terrace of the society for the pres ervtrtion of Canadian forests. A. Holmwood was elected chairman, with Rev. Win. Allan as secre tary. This society was organised last year in Toronto, Ont., at the instigation of George E. Keith, its name being self explanatory as to its aims and objects. " Replying to a question as to the reason for organizing, Mr. Keith told of unsatisfactory government action taken following forest fires, particularly one in 1922, which fire killed immense quantities of Umber on' property owned by Robert Braun, R. L. Mcintosh and himself. In order to salvage this timber, which it was necessary to do within two years to realize anything on it, a petition had been circulated in the district to which 237 signatures were placed, asking the government to co-operate in the bringing in and operating of portable sawmill On te proprrty, the iocai mills being entirely inadequate to handle the large quantity of timber involved. No action whatever hud been taken nor had there ever been any proper investigation as to the origin of the fire. Following a lengthy illness during which the matter was held In abeyance, Mr. Keith went to Toronto to try to create sentiment among influential friends there, mil was easily able to Interest many prominent persons, with the result that the Society for tbe Pretiorvntinn nf funnHiHri Porpata I was organized in 1927. The ad- vixory board of this society are as follows: George B. Van Blerieom, Major-General Robert Rennie, I Frank Yeirch, W. C. Gall(vW. A. : Argue, Alexawder Keith, 3. W. McKeowstt aVoift.il, Keith. Many other prominent eastern men became interested in the society and' promised their co-oper ation and support. It had been suggested that the head office of the organisation be established in Toronto, but on the advice of an eminent politic ii. Vancouver was decided on as a better pmce, with branch offices at Terrace and Toronto. At a AWlng.of Om society held in Toronto before Mr. Keith returned west in the fall of 10i7, the following resolution was passed: "That the society request the Canadian Forestry Association to take the necessary stape to pro-cure a -thorough investigation b)r the Legislative Assembly of lldt Lh CuluiuLiu iui the purpose of Tuesday,.

The Campbell and Chllko Klvert, on tht mainland, and the Nlmpklsh on Vancouver Itlund, are capable ot tremendous power development for the (.onverilon of our forest and mineral resources Into fabulous wealth. Two of llrltlsh Columbia's Electric Power systems are among the greatest in Canada, each ftcncratlnl more than 400,000,000 kilowatt hours In 1927. Tills represents an increase in the. last ten ears of 93... truly a remarkable achievement! Foreign authorities speak of this record as a measure of the great vitality of British Columbia. Today we rank third In power and Industrial develop, mcnt among Canadian provinces. We have made ft r eater progress per capita than any! It is the policy of British Columbia to foster the development of the hydro-electric power for the Iwntfit of the public. They are allotted to privute enterprises on condition that they will be developed within m rrrtftkv time, so that no ciploltailon of. public assets may take place.
