The ine heen found guilty of graft tide of battle is ever uncertain will not find much sympathy and losses and disasters are al- from either party in Canada. ways a part of the game. What In discussing the matter the is galling in the extreme, how- Vancouver News - Advertiser has the following to say: “But the immediate fact is that a commission created by the Legislature, at the instance of Mr. Flemmings Cabinet col- ever, is the loss of dashing big ships without even getting the smell of powder. The impres- sion gained from the dispatch is that she the expivsion of one of her own was destroyed by leagues, has found at least one shells, probably carelessly charge of extorting money sus- handled. This, indeed, is more tained, and has also strongly consoling if it should after- censured him in respect to wards be;shown to be the re- other matters.“It is understood that the commissioners were chosen by Lieutenant Governor Wood at the request of the act- ing premier. Whatever may be the personal sympathies and regret of the other ministers they cannet disregard this finding, even if Mr. Flemming did not see the necessity of re- signing. But he must see that necessity. If no other member of the cabinet was in any way connected with the proceed- ings, Mr. Flemming can hardly expect them all to make them- selves parties to it as they would by retaining office with him. Nor is it likely that the Lieutenant Governor would al- low the report of the eommis- sion to be ignored in this way.” ® £4 -2 The loss of another British warship is announced and the news bears with it a_ biting sting. There is no one who will sult of a shot from a German submarine. * * * Yesterdays dispatches from the Russian front are very re- assuring. If the reports are true there has been a telling defeat inflicted on the German army in Poland. Previous dis- patches had declared that this was to be one of the decisive battles of the war and if the Russians have succeeded in putting a quarter of the hos- tile army out of business it means much for the immediate success of her armies. It will mean that the spirit of her forces will be raised to a high key and that the fall of Ura- cow and investment of Posen will be early actualities.

There is a reason for this. It is because some flours absorb more water than others. The more water your flour will take up, the more bread you will get. Only “strong” flour will give you the maximum of bread—the light, flaky, nutty flavored kind. And it also means that the more bread you get from your flour, the lighter and better it is. So you see how necessary it is to have “strong” flour. But strong flour can be made Hard Wheat, ie., the from Number One Northwest wheat. That is the only kind of wheat used to make ROYAL STANDARD FLOUR. That is one reason why ROYAL STANDARD FLOUR is the best kind of flour —the most economical—for you to use. Don’t forget that when using ROYAL STANDARD FLOUR you are not only using the best your money can buy, but you are helping to keep up a payroll in British Columbia, because ROYAL STANDARD is made in British Columbia. only best Canadian Vancouver Milling & Grain Company, Ltd.
