THE DAILY NEWS. riUNCK RUPERT - BRITISH COLUMBIA Published Every Afternoon, Except Sunday, by Prince Rupert Dally Kew3. Limited. Third Avenu ' H F. PULLEN Managing-Editor THE REAL SYSTEM The more the unemployment problem is discussed" the more evident it becomes that the best method of dealing with it would be by instituting a number of important public works that would enable the large majority of the men to earn a living without making them feel that they were the recipients of public charity. The building of the western outlet to the Peace River country would be one such work and the letting of a large contract for the construction ofthe western and eastern ends of the Prince Rupert to Jasper highway would be others. These works would absorb most of the unemployed men in British Columbia and Alberta and other similar works might be carried out in the east. The way things are shaping today it looks as if there would be much discontent in any case and that little value will be received by the country for the money expended. If contracts were let for the big construction jobs there would be a possibility of Prince Rupert people being able to drive out in their own cars to interior points within a reasonable' time and there would also be a possibility of the western section of the C. N. R. being utilized for hauling grain and thus be made to pay within a reasonable period. WS, Tfc AN OBSTACLE IN WAY It is said that one of the obstacles in the way of railway development is the threatened exodus of the farmers from the drought stricken areas to the Peace River country leaving the older settled areas neglected and the railway branch lines in those regions practically useless. Already this trek has commenced but if the new outlet were to be constructed, the movement would be increased until very few people would be left in Southern Saskatchewan. This would leave the railways with unremunerative branch lines on their hands while committing them to the expenditure for the new lines. It is said that is the reason the railways refuse to undertake the work. Ik . V W AN IMPORTANT SECTION OF ROAD One of the important sections of highway that needs completion is that connecting Usk with Skeena Crossing. Part of it is already completed but Jthere is a difficult piece, said to be about ten miles long, that connects up the remainder and would enable Terrace people and the resi-dnts of Uk to connect with the main highway. Very little work has been done on this during the past few years. 3SK in! t?J ll " 'rTIt t 3 sssfl WONDERFUL WHISKY- r SPECIAL" "LIQUEUR Also the De Luxe Whiskies Extra Special Liqueur and Ne Plus Ultra iSHlliiiliini iHi HtiiTlillHiiilHjSmuj, Tgi iniiHiiiiiiiiliUi liiiiKiiiiiiiiiiiiihii EnununtanB For sale at Vendor's or direct f Uuor Control Board, mall o der clopt.

Architect f Is an English rustic home HERE with attractive features on both the exterior and Interior.

These lead to the living room and kitchen, it is not uncommon to fee the kitchen thus placed In the house and when one considers the amount of time spent in this room by the housewife, t is only reasonable that this room should have a pleasant outlook. .The kitchen fs wired for an electric stove and refrigerator. In the living room and dining room the ceilings are treated wh buff stucco with a pulled and trowelled finish. The floors are of red oak with the exception of. the- vestibule where the floor Is of red tle , and the bathroom, whose floor r Is also tiled.

Fine Quality Roof Obtainable By Use Of Wood Shingles Edge Grain Superior cut thin slabs of "wood and MEN we put them on our roofs. Shingles, we call ihemt protection from weathering Is what we expect. That confidence is Well . placed. We get protection If we recognise cer'aln fundamental quallties-of the material and a. certain minimum of r-onstructlon requirement that all cood builders know. . Here they arr. First a to the ma terial. Red cedar is the Wood most commonly used, although' cypress and redwood also serve, well. More Important than the material is the way it Is cut. Look around yoil At the shingle roots you see those that have been good for a number of years. Some you will find lying flat, every shingle In Its place. 'You will know thai these arellght roofs. We can be sure they will remain that way long years. We know also that fire brindi rarely lodge on such roofs, and that If they do the solid and close-fitting units dd not kindle readily. Oood shingle' roofs rarely catch fire. Now see others that are curled, that show shingles out of place or misting, a rough, splintery surface that canont be tight, that cannot yield protection from weather and, more, that may be a fife hazard of 'the first order. Why the difference? : It began when the shingles were manufactured. 8ome are thin, some are thick. The thin ones curl. Some , are flat sawed like common boards. Some are edge gratn, the rings ot I growth making parallel lines from end to end of the shingle units. ; Again, It is the flat sawed shingles that curl. Some are protected saturated with creosote. They need that protection. j You can forget a roof that is made of edge grain shingles meas uring at least three-eights of an inch thick and creosoted from end tb end if they are put on right That's the second part. No shingle should be more than eight Inches wide; a space of at least one fourth THE DAILY NEWS Inch should be left' between shin-, gles, felt should be run under the shingles, preferably from ridge to' eaves. The old-wife roofers say this makes shingles rot don't believe them. Copyright. 1931.
