.RADISETS '�lty Many 1Vien and �aznen Ate' Says Cli�edit Due
;A,p predloted last year, radio with -
int batteries, chemicals, chargers, at-
tachments, eto., are now the standard.
In another year or so battery-oj)er-
ptecl sets will beobselete, almost
lwortheless, wherever current is avail-
able.
Those considering the purchase of a
radio operating withoutbatteries
P atin g .
Should bear this in mind: There are
two types of "electric" radio—(1)
!those that are built to operate direct
from a light socket, made In one fac-
tory, complete in one cabinet—all
!ready to operate, and—(2) ordinary
'electric pets that can be "adapted"
to light -socket operation by installing
a so-called power unit, which power
Unit generally consists of a 'B" Elim-
• plater, a storage battery and a
charger. You still have the "A" bat-
tery; you still have chemicals, but
lthe charger is connected to a light
socket, and so they are termed
("socket -power." This latter type
Serves very well for those who al-
eady have a battery operated set, but
cannot afford to turn it in for a new
enuine Batteryless Model, but when
buying.a new radio supposedly "Bat-
teryless," be sure to get the typo that
is completely batteryless and built to
be so.
Of this type the "Rogers Battery-
less' is the only one with any record
of proven performance behind it. Con-
eeived in 1923 and introduced -in 1925,
it is the first and only time -tested
ii t
radio set complete rete 1n one ca b ie ,.
made in one factory and operating
direct from any alternating current
socket (and in most cases it needs no
aerial);
Moreover the Rogers was conceived,
developed, perfected and made right
in Canada and was the world's first
Batterless A/C radio set.
Producing such a set that will give
uniform performance in all localities
under all conditions is not easy. The
first year or two brings grief. Now,
in ftp third year, with thousands of
sets in active operation from coast
to coast the Rogers has proven its
merit.
Don't experiment. It. may cost you
dearly.' Look for the name "Rpgers;"
Iook for the Rogers A/C Tubes with
the top clips and be sure then you'll
have no regrets later.—Advt.
New Zealand's
AOples in Favor
Shipments May Be Made
Direct to Continent, Not
Via England
Auckland, N.Z.—Fruit growing for
export is quite a minor industry in
New Zealand, but a good deal of capi-
tal is involved, the quality of the pro-
duct is high, and strenuous efforts
are being made to put the business
Ion a better footing. Eiport is strict-
ly controlled by a board, and great
pains are taken to insure a high level
of quality, and uniformity.
The report of the Fruit Export Con-
trol Board for the season ended May
1 refers to the poorness of the season
lin England. The only satisfactory
feature was that the position of New
Zealand fruit on the English market
was retained, and though New Zea-
land's realizions were poor, those of
its competitors were worse.
During the season 449,000 cases
were shipped to Britain, and 67,000 to
South America. Sturmer Pippin was
the predominating variety of apple
sent to Britain, but .Delicious account-
ed for more than half the shipments
t� South America.
At present trade with European
centers is dealt with through English
ports, and the board notes the in-
creasing Continental demand as a
very satisfactory feature, and thinks
it may be necessary to ship direct to
the Continent. A scheme by which
persons in New Zealand can send
fruit to friends in England has been
a success, and is considered valuable
as a means of advertising the New
.Zealand product.
The industry, however, is still work-
ing under a government guarantee,
and a result of last season's low
prices 'was that the State had to foot
a heavy bin. It is believed that there
is little or no likelihood of the State
having to pay out this year, but the
industry will not be in a really
healthy condition until it is able to
do without this government help.
They say that this football season
is full of upsets. Also, we should
say, of setups.

Kemal for that six -da-; speech prob-

South African
Flag Dispute
Now Settled
Draft Agreement Provides for
Continuation of the Use
of Union Jack
Cape Town.—There is reason to be-
lieve flag controversy is novw practi-
cally settled. A provisional agree-
ment has been drafted, and except for
one small point is generally approved.
The agreement provides that the
Union Jack shall .always fly officially
alongside the national fag and be re-
cognized as one of South Africa's
flags. The proposed new design for
the national flag follows the design
embodied in the Flag Bill, but the
shield is removed and in its place the
Union Jack and the tw,o old republi-
can flags are placed side by side in
the center panel. The three minia-
tures occupy one -ninth of the whole
surface.
Tielman Roos, Minister of Justice,
says the country is indebted to Gen-
eral Hertzog for the agreementt,
though the feeling outside parliament
is that General Smuts and Mr. Roos
also deserve much credit.
Since the South African Govern-
ment at the beginning of the special
session of Parliament agreed not to
proceed with the ,Flag Bill until a
final effort had been made tp reach a
peaceful settlement, private 'discus-
sions between the Prime Minister,
General Hertzog, and General Smuts,
the leader of the South African Party,
have been held daily. The country
awaited the result with anxiety, the
issue being regarded as of the grav-
est importance.
The Flag Bill of the Government
proposed that South Africa should
have a flag consisting of a red verti-
cal stripe next the staff and horizon-
tal stripes of green, yellow and blue,
entirely excluding the Union Jack.
This proposal was met with opposi-
tion from a large portion of the South
African population and many at-
tempts have been made to reach an
amicable agreement on what is a vital
question. One proposal made was
that the Union Jack should be—flown
on a few special occasions, as an evi-
dence of the country's connection
with the British Empire, and 'that the
South African should include the
cross of St. George.
Then followed another proposal to
the effect that the flag should com-
bine the Union Jack with the old re-
publican flags in a shield in the mid-
dle of the household flag of the old
Dutch House of Orange. The Senate
refused to pass the Flag Bill and a
deadlock has continued ever since,
with au attempt on the part of both
leaders, as stated in the above cable,
to reach a modus vivendi.
Badly Handicapped
When you are so run down in health
that it impairs the ofilcioney of your,
work as well as your power to enjoy.
your leisure hours, orobtain rest, it
le time you looked to the cause. If
you do not, a serious breakdown is al-
most sure to resultt. In Nearly all
eases this condition, which doctors
usually describe as general debility,
is due to poor blood -blood that is
deficient in red corpuscles. When the
blood is thin and weak your whole,
system suffers. You lose appetite,
have no energy, your nerves trouble
you and you feel restless.
What you need is help to build up
your blood and you should begin at
once to make your blood rich and red
by taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
you will soon notice the difference in
your health by a.*t:,rl' appetite and
increased vigor. The reason is that
the new blood created by Dr Wil-
liams' Pink Pills stimulates all the
organs of the body to healthy activity
and so the system gains nourishment
and strength. . If you are weak or out
of sorts, begin gaining new strength
to -day by taking Dr. Williams' !?ink
Pills. "I was in a badly run down
condition," says Mrs. J. Potter, of
Winnifred, Alta., "when I began us-
ing Williams' Pink Pills and they
fully restored my health. I strongly
recommend this medicine to all weak
people."

Soviet Executes Three as Spies
for Britain; Final Appeals
for Ex -Millionaires Fail
Moscow.—Two brothers, Vladimir
and Cyril Prove, and their brother-in-
law, M. Korepanoff, once rated as mil-
lionaires, with high social connec-
tions, and one of them, Cyril, a noted
sportsman, went to their death by or-
der of the Soviet court. They paid
the supreme penalty for alleged es-
pionage in behalf of Great Britain.
The Soviet Government moved
swiftly, both in the apprehension and
.execution of those who would betray
the secrets of the State, thd- army and
the navy to the Soviet's enemies. The
trial of those whose activities are
ferreted out by the police is usually
concluded with all speed and no time
is lost in carrying out the' sentence of
the Court.
Cyril Prove, weeping bitterly, beg-
ged for mercy. Vladimirtried as .best
he might to hold up his drooping
shoulders when the head of the mili-
tary . tribunal of the Supreme Court
ended all hope of appeal by declaring
that the death sentence would stand.
The case, however, was appealed,
but the All -Russian Executive reject-
ed the plea, declining to grant clem-
ency,to the convicted men, who had
hoped to benefit by the amnesty
which will come into effect with the
commencement of the tenth anniver-
sary celebration of the founding of
the Soviet Republic.
Attorneys of the men held out hope
until the last minute, but their efforts
failed. The Executive ruling was that
their offense was among the gravest
of all offenses against the Soviet Gov-
ernment.
The two brothers turned State's
evidence, thus hoping their lives
would be spared, and M. Korepanoff
pleaded that he was not aware of the
"espionage character" of questions
put to him by Edward Charnock, First
Secretary of"the British Mission at
Moscow. At the time, Korepanaff,
though counsel to the War Commis-
siariat, transacted mainly civil mat-
ters and he declared he knew few
military secrets.
A colored man being interviewed
by authorities in regard to a shooting

of 22,350 -Mile Tour
New York,—Back at the starting
point of his flight to world fame and'
his 22,350
nitre tour of the. country,
Col. Charles A. Lindbergh was wel-
comed by 2000 persons, including
Harry F. Guggenheim, President of
the Guggenheim Fund for the Promo-
tion of Aeronautics, under the aus-
pices of which Colonel Lindbergh
made his tour.
The Colonel shifted the conversa-
tion of interviewers from himself to
the merits of the plane that had car-
ried him through 355 hours of flying
since he left San Diego, Calif„ pre-
vious to his hop to Paris. "Tho Spirit
of St. Louis is in fine shape," he as-
serted. "It gives more revolutions
per minute nog than when it was
new. But this looks like a good time
to do it, so I'm going to have it com-
pletely overhauled. That's never
been done since it was built, you
know. No, it isn't destined for a
museum yet. Eventually, but not
now."
He said the tour had proved the
reliability of modern equipment.
"Others will have to say whether the
tour was successful," he declared.
The "others" dict. Statements by
Mr. Guggenheim, . William P. Mc-
Cracken, Jr., Assistant Secretary of
Commerce for Aviation and Harry S.

tion of airports."
GUARD THE CRI REN
FROM AUTUMN COLDS
The Fall is the most severe season
of the year for colds—one day is
warm, the next cold and wet, and un-
less the mother is on her guard, the
little ones are seized with colds that
may hang on all winter. Baby's Own
Tablets are mothers' best friend in
preventing or banishing colds. They
act as a gentle laxative, keeping the
bowels and stomach free and sweet.
An occasional dose of the Tablets will
prevent colds, or if it does come on
suddenly their prompt use will relieve
the baby. The Tablets are sold by
medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cts.

Yangtse
Shanghai.—Sixty persons were kill-
ed or wounded in a pirate attack on
the steamer Kianghsin on the Yang-
tse River, says a semi-official Japan-
ese statement.
The attack took place soon after
the steamer had left Ichang.. Thirty
Chinese pirates traveling as passen-
gers, seized the vessel after a fierce
fight with the crew and a dozen
guards attached to the Governor
Kwaichow. . The fight lasted an hour
and resulted in a victory for the pir-
ates.
The bodies of those killed in the
fight were thrown overboard and the
passengers and crew were robbed of
their money and belongings. The
pirates then left the steamer and
made a landing with their booty.
