RESOLUTIONS.

The auxiliary of the Presbyterian church, realizing the deep loss sus- tained in the death of our consecrated member and devoted worker, Mrs. sam Little, desires to take this means to express our thankfulness for the conscientious and loyal service ren- dered in her lifetime, and to extend most heartfelt sympathy to all those bereaved by her untimely death. Steadfast in her devotion to religious causes, she was truly a worker for the Master. May the bereaved, in thinking of her life so rich in reli- gious experience and works, find re- lief from their heavy burden of grief.

What is declared to be a production very superior to the many excellent musical events previously arranged by the choir of the First Methodist church will be presented Monday night, April 10, when the cantata, Ruth" is sung by the choir with the assistance of a number of other voca- lists. Seventy-five voices will com prise the cast, and large orchestra will assist. The presentation will be at the White Grand theatre.

SOME SCHEME

The other day stranger entered
a bank in Western city and want
ed to borrow SIS. He was told that
the bank did not lend such small
sums.
But" he went on, lending
money is your business, isn't it?"
The banker admitted it WIS.
"Well, I have good security said
the stranger, land I want to borrow
S."
Finally, the banker, half from ia
tigue and half from amused curlos-
ity. agreed to make the loan. When
the note was all drawn and the in
terest of 35 cents was paid, the
stranger drew from his pocket '$lO,-
900 worth of government bonds and
handed them over as security. Be-
| fore the banker could express his
establishment the stranger said
"Now, this is something like it.
Over at the other bank they wanted
me to pay $40 just for a safety de.
post box to keep these things in!'

BEWARE OF WIRELESS TAKERS!

The latest warning to be sent out
is this: Watch out for the wireless
takers! The new generation, since
the scandalous stock jobbing opera
tions that marked the advent of the
Marconi wireless telegraph concern
in which thousands of widows and
other poor folks were robbed of their
life savings, should read little his
tory.
The public is of short memory.
1t will not be long before the stock
jobbers will be at work. offering all
kinds of alluring propositions iden-
titled with the manufacture and op-
Grafton of wireless telephone outfits.
The danger of being swindled in
these highly speculative enterprises
is in proportion to the opportunity
for profit, and so a double warning
is necessary, because the wireless
telephone business is. destined to
stagger the Imagination before
many years have passed. When the
thousand per cent. per day proposals
reach Paris, let those with loose
change be cautious. Cupfdity is a
dangerous leader. Follow old Cen
eral Conservatism, and be safe.
Don't you happen to- remember
the glowing prospects held out by
the oil game promoters in Paris?
And haven't you been able to count
all your gains from your oil stocks
on one hand?
