Both China and Japan
Warned by Britian
Shanghai—The, Foreign Office in-
dicated that, in view of conflicting
'Chinese and Japanese claims con-
cerning the Japanese occupation of
:Shanhaikwan and the apparently
short-lived hostilities near its sister -
city of Chinwangtao ,the National
^Government has asked the British
and United States Legations to send
military observers there "in order to
obtain the facts."
The National Government also said
that the British Charge d'Affaires had
directed the attention of both the
Chinese and - Japanese Governments
to the British interests in Chinwang-
tao,` the port city a few miles from
':Shanhaikwan, which earlier this week
was taken by the Japanese.
The British official requested that
:the two Governments guard against
'any activities which might jeopardize
The British interests.
The National Government also said
that the British consider "the grow -
ng seriousness of the Chinwangtao
situation as necessitating this re-
-minder."
Illumination sof Fall May Cease
Niagara Falls, Ont.,—Mayor Jenss
.of Niagara Falls, N.Y., proposes that
the illumination of Niagara Falls be
discontinued in the winter months.
The City of Niagara Falls, N.Y., pays
$10,000 annually as its share of the
•cost, the Parks Cotnrnission $5,000,
:and the city $1,250. The Canadian
cost is less because of the provision
of power and operation at the low
Tate. It is expected there will be
considerable opposition to the change
since large numbers of visitors come
"here nightly to see the Falls illum-
inated.
Cosgrave's Party May Be Split
Dublin, Irish Free State—Political
'circles ewere astounded when Rich-
ard Mulcahy, former Minister of De-
fense and front -bench member of
William T. Cosgrave's party, voiced
a, demand for immediate union of the
Free State and Northern Ireland.
The only alternative to union, Mr.
:Mulcahy said, was "a 26 -county re-
public and endless ill will."
In a fiery election address, he
Tamed Great Britain for partition of
Ireland and denounced the oath of
allegiance to the King.
Partisans expressed fear that his
stand might split the ranks of Mr.
Ccsgrave's party and give added
strength to President Eamon de Val-
-era's Republican forces, in the whirl-
wind, campaign preceding Jan. 24, the
polling day

Another Ally for Parity with Pound
St. ` John, N.B.--The establishment
of the Canadian dollar on a. parity
with, the British pound, and the issue
of a special loan to cover any loss
due to commitments in the. United
States, would revitalize Canadian in-
dustry, particularly in the export
field, would increase employment,
and thus, in the : final analysis, light-
en the terrific burden of taxation on
the Dominion, Provinces and mun-
icipalities. This opinion was express-
ed by Hon. L. P. D. Tilley, Minister
of Lands and Mines in the New
Brunswick' Government. He was
speaking to a group of Saint John
business men et a luncheon on board
the liner Ascania.
May Try Inflation in the U.S.
Washington -The `money question'

gress, may come to a head in the

ly from Western States, for currency

Aid is Available for Calgary
Montreal—The City. of Calgary can
meet its obligations if it wishes, and
the Bank of Montreal will give ev-
ery assistance in enabling it to do so,
declared the bank in a formal state-
ment.
The statement reviewed the situa-
tion caused by the refusal of the city
of Calgary to meet' its bonded . obli-
gations or Jan, 1 in United :States:
funds, and 'declared: "In 'strongly ur-
ging the honoring of the city's legal
obligations, it (the bank) did so with
a view to protecting the interests of
the citizens, and believe its 'action
will be approved by every right-
thinking person •hexing knowledge of
the facts."
Temporary loans for wages, salar-
ies, etc., had been authorized by the
bank to prevent hardship and suff-
ering at Calgary.
Insurance Plan to Receive
Consideration
Ontario's sympathies and influence
at the impending interprovincial -Fed-
eral conference at Ottawa will be for
a nation-wide system of unemploy-
ment insurance, but this Province
will press the view that the Federal.
Government should meet all the Go-
vernmental costs.
Prune Minister Henry gave to
President Tom Moore of the Trades
and Labor Congress an intimation
along the line of Ontario's attitude
and the intimation was later supple-
mented in official quarters. Premier
Henry's statement to Mr, 'Moore was
"I can assure you we go to Ottawa
with a very sympathetic mind toward
the working out of some scheme of
unemployment insurance that will be-
come operative as soon as possible."

The First Robin
Often one reads stories in different
papers of the first robin seen, Us-.
ually these appear about the middle.
of January or the first of. February.
However, the year 1933 has made it.
possible tR state that a robin was
seen earlier than ever. On Sunday
afternoon, January 1, one of the fea-
thered redbreasts was seen on Hur-
on Terrace, near Mr, Ivan McKenz-
ie's home. The bird seemed quite
satisfied to be braving the winter at.
such an early date and was singing
a cheery song to welcome the new
year. While those who saw the bird.
discussed whether or not it meant an
early spring the robin continued its
singing, quite unperturbed.—Kincar-

A Heavy Council
"There were giants in those days,"
we have read and there are still some
big men to -day and some of them
are to be found on the Arthur Coun-
cil for 1933. There is no place for
light weights on this important or-
ganization and Arthur can now boast
the heaviest council in its history and
probably in Ontario, The combined
weight of the Arthur council is well
over half a ton made up approximate-
ly as follows: Reeve W. H. Heppler,
275 pounds; Councillors, George Wil-
son 210, J. H. White 210, W. Pinder
200, and H. J. Colwill, the baby of

Howick Pioneer Passes On
Monday brought death to another
of Howick's pioneers when Adam
Spence passed away at his home in
Palmerston, where he had lived for
two years since leaving his farm in
Howick. Mr. Spence was born in
Enniskillen, Darlington township, in
1853, and came next year with his
parents to Howick township.
He spent his lifetime farming the
land which his father first took up
when the township was opened for
settlement. He was a faithful church
man, teaching the Bible Class in the
Anglican church at Fordwich for ov-
er forty years, and was a delegate
to the Synod for forty years. Re-
cently he was the recipient of a life
membership in the Upper Canada
Bible Society, having served for ov-
er fifty-one years as an officer at
Newbridge. He was a member of L.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Silver
Silver can be a joy or a burden,'
When kept up it is certainly a dressy
addition to any buffet, table service
or living room, The only thing that
detracts from silver . is the job of
keeping it clean.
Here is a simple cleaning method
recommended by some of the best
jewelers;
Use clean aluminum pan (free from
grease).
1 teaspoonful of baking soda.
1 teaspoonful of table salt to each
quart of boiling water,
Immerse the silverware until tar-
nish is removed. Then rinse in clean,
warns water and rub dry with a clean
soft cloth. Be sure cloth is free
from dust.

To Clean Windows
It is difficult to clean windows in
the winter time as water freezes so
quickly. A way out of this difficul-
ty is to dip a cloth in kerosene and
rub on windows.
COOKING HINTS
How to Cook Rice
Either put a piece of butter in with
the rice while it is cooking or grease
pan with butter before cooking rice.

juice to each quart of water.

1 pound of powdered sugar
1 cup of cream
1 cup of maple syrup.

and cream until it forms a soft ball
in cold water. Let stand until cool.

Wednesday Was Rabbit Hunt
Day for Walkerton
Jack rabbits being particularly
numerous in the district north of
Bervie this season, it is the point of
expeditions ,practically evey day. Or-

Walkertonians motored there on
Wednesday morning and spent most
of the day at the hunt.
In addition to them having plenty
of sport, about 130 rabbits fell be-
fore the shot guns of the County
Towners, and early in the evening
they returnd well satisfied with the
day's outing.

Alfalfa for Poultry
Alfalfa in the green state has long
been recognized as an ideal poultry
feed when used in conjunction with
the usual grains and mashes. It is
used extensively as range or as cut
green feed for bird in confinement
(luring the spring, summer and fall
months inmost afalfa-growing areas,.
but the value of the hay as a winter
feed. is not so generally known. .Sq
much of the year's success depends
on the number and quality of chicks
hatched each spring, that it is im-
portant to do all possible to increase
the fertility and hatchability of the
eggs and the livability of the chicks,
Experiments have shown that 20 per
cent. better fertility and 6.4 per cent.
better hatchability of fertile eggs can
be obtained where alfalfa hay instead
of stray is used as litter in the breed-
ing pens. The alfalfa should be used
as litter during the winter months
preceding the breeding season and.
the same treatment given to males
and females.
