CANADIANS CONSIDERING SALMON
 RESTRICTIONS.

At a meeting of cannerymen and fishermen at Port Alberni, Vancouver Island, if agreed that there should be limitation of fishing gear The limitation suggested would reduce the num- Der of purse seines by about 50 per cent. and the gill nets by 90 per cent It was not proposed that there should be forced curtailment of troll lers It was agreed that these provisions should be urged as a basis for legislation.
 All of the cannerymen did not agree to the arrangement however. Some of them op- pissed to any sort of government intervention, contending that the matter should be left to agreement among canners and fishermen.
 Some of the cannerymen urged legislation to prohibit the salting of salmon. It was stated by those advocating this legislation that ton of salted salmon worth $50 while ton of canned salmon worth $240- They declared that the salmon should be resefved for the more valuable product

The Nations Debt to Hoover.
Christian Herald.)

Christian Herald)
 Our country owes debt. of gratitude to Sec retary Hoover, not alone for the mastery manner in which he handled the flood problem at it's crisis but for the assurance he gives of ability to deal with the situation even should emergency arise. It is an old proverb that Well begn is half done" MT. Hoover's confidence that his plan to save the Mississippi delta. rightly carried out, will avert any repeti tion of the disaster, is shared by all who know him.
 To make assurance doubly sure, however, he advocates concessions all sides. We must be liberal with the farmers and give them an oppor- tunity to get another crop in the ground. Mortgages must withhold their claims for year at east he urges; and viewing the situation as he outlines it, the inanciers disposed to agree. On this basis the payment of all mort gages. principal and interest, is to be deferred until December. 1928, and while the Emergency Finance Corporation provides the capital for next years crop, the Red Cross will continue to feed, clothe and house the destitute until their bread winners find work again. Taken as whole, the proposition is one that comments itself to the interests involved as the only reasonable plan submitted.
 That Secretary Hoover has won the hearts of the farmers in the flood territory goes without saying, and now he has the confidence of the financers But he does not stop there for he is looking after the interests of the farmers throughout the flood area as no other man has done--lifting tax burdens, overseeing rehablita- ton work. in the multftudes of wrecked homes. and restoring hope aud confidence generally. Little wonder that the Legislature of Louis- iana in joint session. should have passed reso- ution setting forth it's gratitude and inviting him to come to Baton Rouge. that the people of the suffering parishes in Louisiana and Mis- sissipp and other States might find fitting oppor- tunity for the expression of their admiration for the great work Secretary Hoover had carried through in their behalf.

More or Less True

A rack full of neckties always pives us the impression the de- signers have an idea all men leavs the choosing of their neckwear 70 their wives.
 A wife can make it appear shell be cheated out of her chance of getting into heaven if she doesns get the new hat she wants, whcn all she'll be cheated out of is a chance to make her dearest enemy green with envy.
 A man would rather be we,l than be well-dressed. but it always makes a women sick not to be well.dressed.
 Friend husband doesn't mind his wife telling him he is fojl, it is having her take two hours to do the telling that gets his goat.
 Father seems to enjoy being agreeable when they are out in company so much that the family can't understand why he isn't that way around home more.
 Some men object to their w.yas working. and then there are some who would be ticlSled to death r) have their better halves go out and earn the living for the fam fly. but have wives who do their own obiecting to working.
 A good many homes in this glorious land of the free and homo of the brave would look as bare as old Mother Hubbard's cup board or bathing beauty-f everything was sold for cash.
 Our idea of an example of the difference between the false and the true is the enthusiasm a wife shows in greeting the unexpected guest hub has brought home for dinner and the enthusiasm aha shows when she starts in on the curtain lecture after the guest has gone.
 A dad can give his children the impression he was pretty much of an angel when he was their age If grandmother doesn't get too talkative.

WILL HONOR BLUE LICKS
 BATTLEFIELD.

Announcement is made by the Blue Licks Bat tlefed Monument Commission, the headquarters of which at Carlisle Kentucky, that forty foot obelisk will be erected at Blue Licks, near Carlisle, where on August 19 17S2 the bloodiest battle between Indians and whites in what was known as tn Dark and Bloody Gound" which afterward became Kentucky fought. Ten thousand dollars has already been voted for the monument to the nearly 200 pioneers who fell, dead or wounded, that day. and the memorial will be dedicated August 19, next year. the 146th anniversary of the battle in which were slain or wounded men than in any other general battle of the old Indian days south of the Ohio River.
 dispatch from Carlisle, Kentucky. in the New York Times says:
 The obesk will be of severe simplicity as the lives of the men it will commemorate. The shaft will be surmounted by the figure of Ken lucky pioneer, leaning on the famous long rife which was introduced to the West by Daniel Boone and who fought at the Battle of Blue Lcks
 The figure will face toward the Ohio River across which finally fled the In- dians after practically decimating the pioneer forces. So far as recalled here, the Battle of the Little Big Horn in which Custer, and his men were mas sacred is the only one that approaches it in annals of Indian warfare.
 Blue Licks where the conflict oc- cured, is the site of Blue Lick Springs which seventy-fve years ago was watering place vieing with Sara toga in popularity.
 The site where the battle occurred has been overrun with weeds and all manner of underbrush but in recent x months some attention has been paid to it and it has been cleared
 Rich finds in Indian arrowheads and tomahawks have been made there on the ground of the fight beneath which % still sleep of the pioneers killed that day. great celebration was held there August 19, the 145th ami versary of the battle, when tribute was paid to the settlers who fell there, and ceremonies dedieatng the field to the memorial purpose took place

Buttons to Play an Important Role
BY MARY MARSHALL.

buttons are often used in rows to give
the needed note of color--sometimes
In distinct contrast to the color OF the
frock but more often a deeper shade
OF the color of which the froCk Is
made. Thus many of the new flannel
frocks In pastel shades have quite
deep-colored buttons arranged at the
front on the cuffs, the belt and on the
pockets. Sometimes row of these
bright buttons is to he found at the
back OF the frock also.
Pairs of ornamental buttons are
sometimes made into cuff links by
means of silk cord to form the link
between. These may he placed in a
pair of buttonholes at the wrist OF a
closely fitting sleeve. Sometimes a
pair OF such buttons linked with silk
is placed at the neck to hold the collar
together. From every indication but
tons are to play an important role
this Spring, and IL you happen to have
some fine old buttons in your button
box. now is an excellent time to bring
them to light. They may be just
what YOU want to use on the little
tailored jacket. or If there are four
of them you may choose to make
them into cuff links.

Family Meals.

'It takes so much time to get din
ner ready. In half an hour. it's
eaten. The same old story, day in
and day out. l have nothing to show
for all the work I do" laments the
mother of growing brood.
But the mother Is wrong in her
conclusion that she has nothing to
show for all the time 1t takes to pre-
pare the meals. She has the good
health OF her youngsters as definite
proof that her work Is profitable.
IF l only had some one to plan
the meals. it wouldn't be so bad. We
always seem to have the same old
thing" says Mrs. Neighbor.
There IL certainty about meal
time. But a hungry family must be
fed. The rosy cheeks, happy health
good pay for time and thought given
to family meals.
AS for menus. they can be only sug'
gestive. Every family differs In
tastes and in income. Even age diff
ference In the members OF the family
group and their respective occupa-
tons must govern the family food
schedule.
Instead Of thinking her job a minor
one. the housewife should look upon
1t as profession worthy of her best
efforts. The mother-chef must serve
wholesome, balanced meals. They
must be within the income. They
must be nourishing. They must be
good to look at. They must be tasty
and well cooked. Their preparation
must be simple enough so that she
spends q minimum amount Of time
on them, so that she will have time
for other duties and other pleasures.
Where there are children in the
family, they are the first considera-
ton. II they are old enough to eat
at the family table, the thing of first
importance 10 to supply the foods
their growing bodies need. And
