wholly satisfactory to him. 1t is also
reported that Eugene Meyer, chairman
OF the War Finance Corporation, will
be moved up to the ComptroIlership,
which carries ex officio membership on
the board.
In addition to his long standing
friendship withS the President and his
showing in his present position, Mr..
Criss!nger, IS Comptroller, it Is
pointed out, is member Of the
Federal Reserve Board and thoroughly
familiar with every phase of the work.
He has shown unusual ability. it is de-
'clared, in maintaining the friendly
basis of relations between the two
Treasury agencies and has not had the
slightest contention with the board.
This is said to be rather surprising to
his friends, some Of whom were in
clined at first to be skeptical whether
a small town banker, whose business
was conducted at the very roots of the
money game" would be able to handle
the whole field of national finance.

 The smaller total value of field crops in Canada last year as com pared with the totals for the two preceding years WAS largely due to lower prices. For instance, in 1919 the average price of wheat was .S2.37: in 1920, $I.62; and in 1921, SC cents.
 The field crop of greatest value last year was wheat, worth S2SS,- 2S4.OOO. Hay and clover stood sec ond with a value of S26s.457.00o; and oats came third, with value Of $I62SI4.OOO.
 Among the provinces, Saskatche- wan led last year in the value of field crops. the total for Saskatche- wan being S265.52O,OOO.

 During last year there were i'm ported into Great Britain 14O.213 tons of butter, of which little more than half came from foreign coun- tries. The importatioRs from the British Dominions amounted to 65,- SS6 tons, of which only 995 tons came from Canada.
 The cheese imported into Great Britain last year amounted to lS5,- O64 tons-7,94O tons from foreign countries. and I27,124 tons from the British Dominions. The impor- tations of Canadian cheese amount ed to 55,134 tons.

Atlin Notes
Atlin. B. C.. March 4, 1922

Atlin. B. C.. March 4, 1922 An unusual accident happened to the mail stage on Wednesday morn ing. by which Mir. Louis Schultz lost a valuable team of horses. When about two miles from Atlin. enroute to Carcross. one of }he horses drop ped through a crack in the ice which had opened up on the trail. running parallel to 1t. Snow had drifted across the crack, completely hiding It from horses and driver. The horse dropped through the crack so quickly that he jeIked his mate of her feet, turning her completely over so that she fell on her back on top of the horse in the water. Driver Paul Tingley and Napoleon Compeau did all iI their power to save the horses, the former return ing to Atlin on foot for assistance, but before this could reach the place both horses were dead.
 Vic Stevens, in charge of the White Pass property at Taku, start ed on foot for AtliE the same morn ing to get supplies. and without any warning whatever he suddenly found himself in the water hanging by his elbows to the edges of crack. covered with drifted snow. through which he had dropped. He got out without difficulty.
 It has frequently been remarked that never before has the lake rum bled so much as during the present winter. The rumbling has been practically continuous since the ice formed, and at times was so loud and. strong as to cause many to think it was an earthquake shock, the vibrations being quite distinctly felt in the houses on the water front. Once the Tumbling was heard at Discovery-6 miles distant There was a very strong disturbance Monday night, which is supposed to have caused the cracks to open.
 Mrs. Paul Eggert, Miss Dorothy Taylor, Jack Taylor and Mickey Egg gert drove to the Engineer mine to spend the week end with Mir. and Mrs. Walter Sotham. They return ed Wednesday evening, having had most delightful trip.
 Corporals McCleery and Tidd, R c. Nj. P, left here a week ago for the Nakina country, on patrol, and are expected back again next week. Atlin presents a clean bill of health now. There was quite run of chicken pox but all cases have cleared up and everyone is well again.
 Chris. Beaton, who has been in the hospital for some time owing to an accident at the mine on Spruce creek, is improving.

Washlngton.-The monotony of the life Of a Hghtkeeper Is maddening, Much might be written on the tragedy Of the service, but the department of lighthouses has forbidden its em- ployees to speak of what goes ou ID the solitary beacon houses along our coast IL does not tend to popularize the service, and SO orders have been given that no information of any kind may be given out by the lighthouse officials.
 Occasionally, as when a lightship is broken from it's moOrings and driven to sea in frightful storm, the public be- comes dimly aware of the danger in cured daily and nightly by the keepers of the lights along the shores. Asked once how they passed the time in their lonely lighthouse, several miles from shore. one of the lightkeepers an swered: We read and we fish"

 "The county fair" triunphantly an svered the one froqP the outlying dis tricts. For few moments the city cousin was sJumped. He didn't answer, while his relative went on 10 relate the splendors of the fairs. Suddenly he grabbed his country relatives arm and virtually dragged him into d subway. A downtown express sped them toward Fourteenth street Here they allghted and walked up Into Union square.

SPOKEN

THE convention system I'VE be-
lieve to be of the very first import
ance : Experience has shown that
we cannot successfully defend our
selves without it. For example, look
at the elections Of last year. Go
where you would into a large Wing
county, you were sure to find the
Wings not contending shoulder to
shoulder against the common enemy,
but divided into factions, and fighting
furiously with one another. 4"

The great fapulist and philosopher
Aesop. Illustrated it by his fable Of
the bundle of sticks. and he whose
wisdom surpasses that of all philoso
piers has declared that "a house d.
vided against itself cannot stand" II
IL to induce our friends to act upon
this important and universal truth that
we urge the adoption of the conven
ton system. Reflection will prove
that there is no other way of practi
cally applying 1t. In its application
we know there will be incidents tenn
porarily painful: but, after all. those
incidents will be fewer and less in

Hint to Smokers.

A French doctor declares that all
deleterious effects of tobacco smok-
ing may be prevented by adding to
the acco the stamens of the little
plant known as "coltsfoot." The only
change noticeable irf the tobacco,
which retains its aroma perfectly, is
that it seems to acquire some resem'
blance to Oriental tobacco.
