Raise School Age to 18 | Years, Urges T. Board

The Board of Trade on Mamniay d ® resolution favoring compul-

L. Kenny and others, In | supporting the resolution, pointed out jthe value of vocational courses for jadolescent boys who, If permitted to }leave school at an early age, would |simply crowd the ranks of unskilled labor, In which there is much un- employment. As an alternative to the |present impracticable academic high |school course, he favored elementary | manual training, as is being provided lin Alberta.

The resolution will be submitted at the forthcoming quarterly meeting of the F.V. Associated Boards of Trade.

Representative delegation of rate- payers petitioned the Village Commis- sion last week for extension of cement sidewalk on Essendene ayenug from Montrose avenue to Trinity church. Mulch sidewalk laid by 50-50 contri- bution of property owners and Village is unsatisfactory and unsafe, the del- egation reported. An inspection of the area was promised by Council.

Block Ballot Abuses Under Village Act ?

Control of Abbotsford’s village el- ections by block ballot with proxy votes was charged by G. A. MacKay at Monday's Board of Trade meeting. He sald the Village Municipalities Act permitted ballot franchise to any per- son who had paid a nominal license fee, and in the last election he had knowledge of 380 such votes being “picked up’ and used. The meeting named a committee to verify the com- plaint and peruse the Act, which, if permitting such an abuse, would be

protested. No such “proxy” yoting Is permitted in district municipallties, and it was felt that villages should

be similarly protected against any al- tempt at “plugging.” Correspondence was read relative to town improvement by tree-planting, and a committee comprising C. K. Morison and G. E. W. Clark was sel- ected to accompany one of the Village Commissioners in an interview with Prof, Buck at U.B.C., Vancouver, next week.

preying upon life and the survivor is not always the strongest or bra- vest or most godly, Wile and treach- ery are often the victors, I have seen the sweet and full-blown flow- er of the Death Lotus trap a hum- ming bird's beak in its sticky heart and slowly close its beautiful petals around the fluttering body. The gor- geous blue Morpro butterfly does no to anyone, You would think that the jungle would be kind to this elfin specter that lights up its forlorn sha dows, Yet I have seen a them down in a sheer fit of wanton- ness and crush the beautiful wings beneath mud-fouled paws.

answer of the jungle Indian is that these creatures are reincarnations of human beings Killed in the night, and that they are terrified by total dark- ness.

Men “too, try and escape now and then from the oppressive jungle. From the village there is al trail that leads to some high peak, and to it the natives climb—to get on the top of something for a change, to get out from under the towering, man-smothering roof of the forest. The jungle man hates the jungle. He spends most of his life trying to hack it down, fighting back from the burn- ed acres in which he builds his vill- age. The jungle is nobody's friend. I like the jungle. At the moment I am more than 3000 miles away from it and I think it’s a fine place. But send me a wireless next November and ask me how I like it. I'll say, for heaven's sake send some ice. Send me some more injections for black- water fever. Send me some beoks; something to eat that does not require
