toU WERE BUSY.

If YOU WERE BUSY.
If you were busy being kind,
Before you knew it you would find
You'd soon forget to think it was true
That someone was unkind to you.
If you were busy being glad.
And cheering people who are sad,
Although your heart might ache bit,
You'd soon forget to notice it.
If you were busy being good,
And doing just the thing you could,
You'd not lave time to blame some
mpn,
Who's dung just the Lest he can.
If you were busy being true
10 what yau know you ought to do,
You'd be SO busy You'd forget
The plumbers OF the Iol ks you've met.
Ii you were busy being right,
You'd iiAd yourself too busy quite
To critielse your neighbor long,
Because he's hrsv being wrong.

May the New Year prove happy

May each one of us mortals realize
that real happiness comes only from a
clean. Christian life. That oftimes the
heavy hand Of sorrow and trouble that
we endure, is for our good and better
ment in ways that we do not understand.
Let US oil be up and doing our part in
the great drama of life that we may
be entitled TO home in that beautiful
gloryland where loved ones whose
memory we still cherish, and the
humble man who gave his life that we
might live, awaits to greet US.

When they first talked oT
 retaining the former de scrt now known as tEe Salt River Valley there were a great many who thought it impossible. When it was decided to reclaim it some said it was impossible to build q dam that would hold enough water. After the dam was built some pre- dicted it would never be filled. After 1t was filled some said 1t wouldn f hold.
 Well this desert has been reclaimed because the dam was built, has filled and will continue to hold. When one of the then largest furniture houses in Arizona decided to eN- nand with the Salt River Valley and took over 90.- 900 square feet of floor space some said that it was away ahead of the town and vet they found the stocks carried none too large fer adequate service.
 When they recently launched their annual } August Sale, some said it wouldn't pay this year because so many were away, because of the war etc, ard vet the sale has been a wonderful success, which only goes to prove that yorI will always find Skeptics, but aside from them tlIe general public looks to this store for service.

Manitoba Cabinet Involved in Charges of Graft ill Overpayment of Contrac- tors to Aid the Party in Power

WINNIPEG, Aug. Exchanges that to the contractors who erected the new parliament buildings of the province of Manitoba: that these overpayments in part at least were for the recent Robin government and that some members of that gov ernment were cogniZant of what was going on. were sustained today in the report of the royal commission which inquired into the charges.
 The three members of the com mission, Chief Justice Mathers, Jus tice Macdonald and Sir Hugh Mac Donald, Winnipeg city police magis trate, are unanimous in their find ings. Thomas Kelly & Sons are the contractors named in tke report as having received the enormous over payments.
 Four ex-cabinet ministers, How den, Caldwell and Armstrong, were criticized for their reluctance in tes- tifying and Sir Redmond Robin, eX- premier. the report said, made com mon cause with the contractors to resist discovery and took an active part in securing for the contractors able counsel for that purpose"
 The total amount paid the con- tractors was s1,664.242. On behalf of tiIe commission Engineer Wood man estimates the total value of work done and material OF the ground at s963, 149, which makes ex- cess payments of SS01093 without including 15 per cent, which ought to have been held back for. $121.S70 more.
