UNSIGNED LETTERS We have today an unsigned letter with the nom-de-plume "Independent" attached. This letter was left on the counter in the early morning and there is nothing to indicate who is the writer. If "Independent" will let us Jinow who he is, we will publish the letter, otherwise it must go with all other anonymous epistles, to the waste paper basket. CAMERON LAKE PARK The Tolmie Government is to be complimented on its decision to take over and preserve the wonderful big timber tit Cameron Lake for the public use forever. The timber in that park is marketable. It is probably the largest merchantable timber in the province and the cut to the acre would be enormous. Governments in the past have felt that the cost of holding it off the market would be too great, but those who look on it from a scenic tourist point of view feel that the money would be well spent, It is something that probably will never again be duplicated anywhere. We are in full agreement with the idea of holding this timber as a national asset. CONAN DOYLE Sir Aruthr Conan Doyle came into public notice first as the writer of herlpcK Holmes stories. Then he became internationally know as an exponent of spiritualism. After the war in hi sixtieth year, the great author laid aside his pen altogether and devoted himself to the study of the other world and its manifestations here. He wrote books about it, he crossed oceans to lecture about it, and he gave the world a superb assurance of jiis, sjneere faith, in it by announcing that he and Lady Doyle ere fully convinced that they had communicated with'their dead'scni. Sir Arthur insisted that he had not only spoken to his son, but that the son had replied, and that the father's ears had heardthe voice. Many who relished the reading of his detective stories deprecated Sir Arthur's abandonment of Sherlock and his wholehearted whoje-time labors for spiritualism. He was said. to have told some such people that he had created Sherlock Holmes not so much for financial gain as to make a reputation for himself that would enable him to attract attention when he turned seriously to spiritualism as his subject. He got both the money and the attention, and, being a hearty affable soul a typical British "uncle" in appearancehe won not only wealth and admiration, but the love of many in both hemispheres. IADIES HEAR YlYl STEVENS Declares It Would Be Great Advantage to Have if ember as Gov ernmeti; Supporter A meeting of ladies was held yesterday afternoon in Moose Hall to hear an address by Hon. H. H. Stevens. There were something like 80 present. Mrs. J. C. Brady presided and, in a neat little speech introduced the speaker of the afternoon. Mr. Stevens spoxe most enthu- siasUcally of the prospects of win ning the election. He said that he had travelled through Southern British Columbia and found the greatest enthusiasm everywhere among Conservatives. He spoke of the exodus of young people from Canada. The best of them had gone. The speaker took )t as a foregone conclusion that Mr. Brady would be sent to Ottawa again and said that. on this occasion he would be sitting on the right hand side of the speaker instead of the left, which would be a great advantage. He complained that Premier Mackenzie King had no vision for the future. He had no idea of what Canada should do or be but he had great ability on the platform. Mr. Stevens took credit on behalf of the Conservatives for giving the franchise to women. At the conclusion, Mrs. Brady thanked the. speaker. Miss M. A. Way presided at the piano.

HERE'S an utterly different reaJy-to-eat cereal ! Crisper . . . crunchier ... mote flavory. And with virtually the same nourishment as hot cooked cereals! t That's because Puffed Wheat and Puffed Rice are made in an entirely different way from all other cereals. Plump, choice grans of uheat and rice are sealed in huge bronze guns. The gurts are revolved. in fiery ovens. The natural moisture in each grain is dunged to steam. Then the guns are fired. 12$ million explosions occur in every grain. Each tiny food cell is blasted open. Thus every paritd? of the grain is mode as completely digestible as though they had been cooked for hours. And so Puffed Wheat and Puffed Rice attain the virtual nourishment of hot cooked cereals. This process explains why Puffed Wheat and Puffed Rice have an extra delicious flavor . . . plus a crisp light daintiness that tempts the appetite. Serve these little nuggets of rich grain nourishment for breakfast, luncheon and supper. They digest so easily that they're extra good for children's owing meal.
