A CUE FOR COMPANY
 DIRECTORS

{ Vancouver Financial News )
 Advices from Ottawa would indicate that only a miracle will forestall revised levy on mining stock transactions, se- verely penalizing low-priced stocks in trading. The effect of this law, applicable July 1, very logically would be a sharp curtailment in the buying and selling of such stocks and con- sequently a tendency of prices to decline.
 Since the Federal government is making this ruling which would be primarily if not ult- imately adverse to the interests of holders of these penny stocks," it remains for the di- rectors of companies whose shares would be affected to act quickly in behalf of their share holders. And it would appear that the course of action would be immediate steps to recap italize by boiling down" the share capitalization and in many cases issuing one new for 10 old shares.
 Western Canada development companies, for the most part, will receive the new taxation scale as unwelcome, but wis dom dictates that they adapt themselves as rapidly as poss- ible to the change.

 Benjamin Franklin followed vague inclination to ship from Boston to Philadelphia and be-, came Pennsylvania's leading citizen of his time, the spokes- man for the American colonies and an immortal figure in American history. What might he have been had he continued in the employ of his brothers print shop?
 Who can account for the chance stroke of the spade which uncovered the tomb of Tutankhamen, the fortunate discovery of the first oil well at Titusville, Pa., and the gold nugget which precipitated the rush of the forty-niners to Cal ifornia?
 Many of us can place our fin ger on one happening, perhaps accidental, which was the de- ciding factor in the determin- ation of our life's work. The chance perusal of an item or an advertisement in a newspaper has been the deciding factor for thousands.
 When Ebert Hubbard wrote that Man should follow the dictates of his passions" he did not mean that he should give full play to his desires, but the subconscious inclinations of man are sooner to be obeyed than obstacle-finding, inspir- ation-dampening, deliberation.

ALASKA'S CALL
 TO TOURISTS

Prospective tourists are now studying the summer schedule of Alaska steamships and the descriptions of special sight seeing trips by land and sea, which appear in print from time to time, as the season ap- breaches, says the Fairbanks News-Miner. There are many agencies on the Big Outside, conspicuous among which may be mentioned the Alaska Rail- road publicity offices, the two big Alaskan steamship lines and the Canadian steamship lines, the various railroad lines, and individuals who intend to pilot touring parties to the Northland during the tourist season.
 But there is something that Alaska and Alaskans must be told, sooner or later, and now is just as good a time as any other. Alaska and Alaskans must provide morei adequate hotel accommodations to care for this ever-increasing number of tourists. Alaska cities, towns and settlements have hotel ac- comodations to properly care for the ordinary travel through these communities, but it has not sufficient accommodations to care for the tourists that are likely to visit the big northern territory this coming season.
 This big tourist business is not a transitory thing, to last few years only. Rather it is a permanent business that will grow with each passing year. To make it grow and expand until it reaches enormous pro- portions, not a visionary pre- diction, good hotel accomodat- ions are absolutely necessary, and it is up to Alaska and Alaskans to provide these ac- comodations. It is going to be a big job, but it is going to be a profitable one, we'll worth while.
 Alaskans should take thought on this situation, which is a self-evident proposition. We on this end of the line will do our

that one of the teachers in the

that 1t was almost locking-up time.
Marion only had time to give her

Honesty like a good many other
virtues can be taught better by ex-

must the child's property be re-

family must be equally scrupulous
in observing each others property
