FISHERMEN MAKE APPEAL.
Ask for Longer Season with Small
Nets.

VANCOUVER, B. c.. Sept. 22.-Because
OF the poor run OF sockeye on the Fraser
River up to date this season, resulting
in very few fish being caught by the
fishermen. and alleging further that II is
practically impossible to obtain the
seven inch mesh net, which the law re-
quires them to use after September 80,
the Fraser River Fishermen's Associa-
ton has petitioned the Dominion fish
cries department to extend the season
for the use Of the smaller mesh net until
November 10.
Over a thousand licenses were issued
to fishermen on the Fraser this year.
The fishery regulations permit the use
of a Ave and a quarter inch mesh net
for the catching OF sockeye to Septem-
Der 80, after which date the law requires
the mesh to be seven inches the reason
being to allow the fish to pass through
the net to their spawning grounds. The
petition is receiving the consideration OF

llsh and Scotch farmers:
"Old country farmers have at last
been forced TO admit that there is no

fact that Canadian herds are free from
disease has been proved so conclusively
nat the English and Scotch farmers are
forced to change their ground of opposi-

"A suggestion that the embargo be
removed is met to-day with the argu-
ment that because Canada has a very

what minute the healthy herds of the

farmers, is never free Of such diseases,
and for England to permit the entry or
Canadian cattle under such circum-
stances would be suicidal to their own
cattle health interests.
1T is sometimes said that any ex-

ductive life of the community. Having
been retrained for a lucrative occupa-
ton, their minds developed and their
vision broadened as a result Of their
experiences. 1t may DO said that in most
instances they will become even more
useful members of society than they had
been hitherto.
The disabled Canadian soldier has
been taught that in his lexicon there are
no such words as impossible" or fall
ure." The sightless are not blind. They
are not helpless hulks resting in the
lngle nook and living only In the dreams
OF the past, but live, virile men Of ca
paclty and power. The wonderful sys-
tenn developed at st. Dunstan's in Lon
don, through the energy Of that remark
able man Sir Arthur Pearson, has been
taken advantage of by the Department
Of Soldiers Civil Reestablishment, and
blinded Canadian soldiers are accorded
the benefits of that institution. As
result many of them have returned to
Canada ready and able to continue as
Independent, self,sustaining citizens. 1t
has been demonstrated that there are
occupations that may be successfully
followed by the blinded man and that
II is possible to procure for him the
fullness of life.
Bettered by Retaining.
One lesson recorded in Canada is
that not only can the disabled man be
restored to a place of usefulness but
that in nearly every case of retrained
men graduating from the vocational
schools they have taken up better and
more remuneratlve positions than those
filed by them previous to the war.
An exceedingly important and active
branch of the Department of Soldiers
Civil Reestablishment is the informa-
ton and service branch. which, as its
name implies. offers information and
provides service for the former soldier
and sailor. This branch maintains
complete chain of Offices throughout the
Dominion, and its representatives are
ready to answer all inquiries on any
subject concerning the ex-members of
the forces
The Information and service branch
has made several Industrial surveys and
makes special effort to place the
former soldier and sailor in touch with
employment opportunities. In conjunc-
tion with the Labor Department and the
various provincial employment bureaus
the branch maintains its own represen-
tatives to deal directly with the ex-
service man. So successful has this
proved that approximately 10000 men
have secured employment through the
offices Of the branch.
The foregoing summary indicates the
manner in which the problems of the
ex-service men have been dealt with in
Canada. To cope with them was a tre-
mendous task, but there has been such
hearty cooperation through the Do
minion that the immensely of the prob
lens has been so lessened that now it is
possible to show n record of achieve
ment Instead of merely submitting a
programme.

Our men fought upon the
distinct and oft expressed un-
derstanding that we were in
the war to promote justice and
human freedom; to prevent
oppression and aggression; to
end wars. They fought nobly
and died bravely not merely
because of personal courage
but because they were bouyed
up by the glorious spirit of
Americas purposes.
These things are to be con-
sidered as at the very heart of

THE VALUE OF A COLLEGE
TRAINING

n N accordance with annual
y custom, the graduating
class of Princeton Uni
versity has placed itself in the
retort for careful analysis with
a view to determining the ex-
act value of its four years of
college training. The result
of this process is both interest
ing and puzzling. That litera-
ture and the drama engross the
attention of these young men
is shown by their preference
for the poetry of Kipling, with
Poe a close second, and the fic-
ton of Booth Harrington.
Shakespeare and Bernard
Shaw as their favorite dra-
matists and Macbeth" and
Hamlet" their favorite plays.
Among current Broadway pro-
ductions they have chosen
I'Lightnin'," completely ignor-
ing the various follies and re-
vues and musical comedies of
which they are VIGOROUSLY
fond. That the movies have
cast their spell over these stu
dents is shown by the many
votes cast for such picture
stars as Norma Talmadge,
Marguerite Clark and Madge
Kennedy. Douglas Fairbanks
also is popular with them,
doubtless because they like to
see an actor work hard for his
money.
That youth is ever prone to
neglect its golden opportuni-
ties is proved by the fact that
"a out of 116 of these seniors
declare that they have never
kissed a girl. Several of them
on being pressed for an expla-
nation of such a singularly dull
