It was the Mardi Oras. The world's problems were solved by simply making believe that they did not exist. Thousands appeared as acrobats, dancers, devils, elves, pyp-sies, highwaymen, Indians, lifeguards and pirates. Today w as S h r A v e Tuesday anc tomorrow the revellers become worshippers .at Ash Wednesday services.

This occupational therapy program was designed with the help of a t inted Nations consultant, who served in the Philippines under the I'nitcd Nations international social service projram, which is being expanded during 1919. If certain interests started a $25,000,000 enterprise in a village about five miles from the city limits of Vancouver, you can wager your bottom dollar that any reference to it would name Vancouver (in box car letters) and not the village, as the site of the zone of operations. Docs it ever occur to anyone here that when we choose to tell about the cellulose plant, there's too little Prince Rupert, and too much Port Edward? It has remained for the British Army Journal, published by the War Office, to give the most common sense description of the best defence against) the atomic bomb that this j column has yet heard of. Thej Journal says: "the best defence' against the atomic bomb is not to be thrre when it goes off."! March has a reputation not always deserved. True enough, it's a mean month in Eastern Canada, but, on the west coast, March can be both green and gracious. It's been that way in Prince Rupert, believe it or not. It's not always necessary to await April or May, before seeing, as well as feeling reminders of the season such as a bee investigating you. Of course, it was hot cakes, or pan cakes, or flap jacks or what have you this Shrove Tuesday morning when, as breakfa.tt hour approached, you were supposed to be idling with one thought only. There's a reason for "Shrove'' which does not matter a hang, anyway. Today, chow is the main question and a well prepared stack of hots, with an abundance of margarine, molasses or honey, treacle, syrup or just plain butter can go a long way in starting the day right. Mrs. Morin, living in the Quebec-Vermont border country. was 10G years old last week-end. Records would appear to prove it. She claims to be Quebec's ! oldest resident and puts it down to avoidance of worry. There is much to be said for the dame's conclusions. But the difficulty is just this sidestepping perplexity as old age comes on is not so easy. It was suggested in the federal parliament the other clay flint a certain western politician had a habit of trifling with the truth. This reminds one of the man who told President Lincoln that Senator had called him an infernal fool. "I've known Senator - - - -for many years" said old' "Abe" and never heard of him 'being wrong. Seems to me there must be something in what he says." RAIL BOOST IS SUSPENDED OTTAWA The recent attempt by the railways of Canada to increase express rates on fish has been blocked by the Board of Railway Commissioners. The board issued an order suspending the proposed higher rates which would have become effective before this, had a protest not been received from the Fisheries Council of Canada and the Maritime Transportation Commission. It was the second time in two months that the board had prevented the carriers from hoisting sub-ceiling rates on specific commodities. r r M iT I ; j v-, ft " m?' 4, I r- $ ' x Vf't& 't try &i ft D D Kadio Dial V I I 1240 Kilocyce (subject to Change) TUESDAY P.M. 4:15- -Stock Quotations and Int. 4:30-The Toy Poodle 4:45 Easy Listening 5:00-The Loosclcaf 5:30-Whatcha Know, Joc. p. 00 Supper serenade 0:15 Dinah Shore 6:30 Musical Varieties C: 45 Smoke Rings 7:00 CBC News 7:15 CBC Roundup 7:3(1 -Leicester Square to Broadway 8:00 Music by Eric Wild 8:30-Record Album 0:00 Points of View 9:15 Recital Time 0: 30 Heritage of Music 1Q:00 CBC News 10:10 CBC News 10:15 Neighbourly News 10:30 Biltmore Hotel Orch. 10:55 Interlude ' 11:00 Weather and Sign Off WEDNESDAY A.M. 7:00 Musical Clock 7:45 Singing Sam 8:00 CBC News 8:15 Morning Song 8:30 Music for Moderns 8:45 Little Concert The FASHION CHIROPRACTOR John F.
