OF Enthusiastic Speeches
Wednesday

With the largest attendance that
mas graced MONDAY luncheon OF
the Chamber of Commerce for
months, the luncheon Wednesday al
so proved TO be one of the "boosting-
est ones held for some time. The
members of the organization, flushed
with the victory of last week in the
campaign for the army Y. M. G. A.,
before the great value of cooperation
OF effort TO accomplish desired ends.
AS result of this the different
speakers laid particular stress upon
the point that the Chamber of Com.
merce is a power in the community
and can be made to serve the com.
munity in far greater measure than
many had realized.
Following the speech of Rev. j. A.
l.OnS, to which reference is made in
another column of The Banner, Judge
Il. o. Levering spoke briefly upon his
experience in the recent campaign
and then called attention to the fact
that the war is going to make further
demands upon the people of the Unit
ed States, which will continue even
after the war has ceased. He spoke
of the fact that the food supply for
the nation is in the hands of the
farmer and then advised a county.
wide campaign for the determination
of weeds.
A movement of this kind, Judge
Levering said, would not only i'm.
prove appearances of property but
would conserve the fertility of the
soil. He then referred to another

| GREAT LOSS OF PROPERTY AND
 OF LIFE
(By Associated Press)

BRISBANE, Australia, March 2. - Iecent floods which caused the drown ing of about 50 persons and great loss of property in central Queensland were probably the most destructive which ever occurred in Australia. The last weeks of December and the first weeks of January are normally the monsoonal or wet season in the far north of the continent. but the last quarter of 1916 was one of unprece dented rainfall over eastern and nor. thern Australia. Long stretches Of country, where drought had been more severe than for a generation, were unable when the rains came to carry off the surplus water.
 The town of Clermont, the center of the Peak Downs district, which is noted for It's rich pastoral and farm. ing lands and its gold and coal mines, was completely submerged. The wat CT from overflowed creeks over. whelmed the town, sweeping away buildings. Persons who were forced to fly to the roofs and upper veran- dahs of dwellings were either washed from these places of refuge. or by the collapse of the houses were flung into the tremendous current and drowned Fifty persons were drowned at Ger mont and there were fatalities also at Theresa Creek and Hughenden. Thrilling acts of bravery and sacri flee when the water was racing down the streets of Clermont were numer, ous. Among those drowned there was James Crawford. an ex-member of the state parliament.
 The property loss all told Is placed at $2.bOO.000. The loss in live stock was very great. A single sheep own CT lost 10000 sheep.

Tn the eighteenth century" the re- port adds, "one in ten of all deaths was caused by smallpox, which is ap- proximately the death rate from tu- berculosis at the present time. but until the health laws are so amended that tuberculosis is included in the list of dangerous and infectious dis eases, the health authorities will be unable to take the same effective steps as were taken with regard to smallpox"

PRESIDENCY OF UNIVERSITY
 OFFERED DUCHESS
(By Associated Press)

ABERDEEN, Scotland, March 1.- It is unofficially reported at Aberdeen University that the chancellorship Cor presidency of the university, which is vacant through the death of Lord Elgin. is to be offered to the Duchess of Fife.
 A lady as the head of great Eng fish university would be an academic revolution unprecedented in Great Britain, but it is pointed out that in these days when women students ire quently outnumber the men it would be entirely fitting that the chancel- lorships should not be confined to one sex.
 Another name prominently mention, ed in connection with the vacant post is that of Lord Bryce, former ambas- sador to the United States.

CHINESE ROADS bE BUILT BY
 AMERICANS

PEKING, Feb. 28.-American engi. neers have begun the actual surveys on two of the railways which are to be built in China by the Siems-Carey Railway and Canal Company, an Am. erican organization financed by the American International Corporation.
 The lines upon which the surveyors are working are in central and south China. One of the lines extends from Chuchow in Human province. south through Hengchowfu and Yungchowfu In the same province to Kweilin in Kwangsi province. then southwest to Liuchowfu and Manning in the same province. then southeast to Yamcrow, or Chinchow, in Kwangtung province. port on the gulf of Tonking. This route is about eight hundred miles long.
 The other line upon which the en- gineers are working runs in . general e~se and west dtrecttof N starts st Chowkiakow. in Honan province, and extends through Nanyangfu In the same province, to Hsiangyangfu in Hupeh province. The latter city is an important commercial point on the Han river. which drains very fertile valley we'll developed agriculturaliy Although this line is only three hun dred miles in length. 1t Is regarded az an especially valuable route because it extends through rich level coun. try offering few engineering difficul. ties, and so fertile and populous that the railway will doubtless pay as soon as it is put in operation. Actual con. struction work will probably be begun on this line in short time. and 1t will doubtless be the first part of the new American railways opened to traffic.
