One day, an unwashed bedraggled looking stranger, charged with having been drunk, as well as disorderly, appeared. In some way he had learned the name of the magistrate was Robert Ritchie and that he was a stickler for decorum and dignity. The moment the accused entered the dock, he smiled broadly at Magistrate Ritchie and bellowed: "Good morning Robert my old college friend."

The ' position in Britain, where great inducements have ; been made to increase the birth rate, seems to be ! much the same in this regard. : A few statistics in regard to the development : of Britain's population in a period of 150 years are of significant interest. In the early 1800's Britain's ; population was some nine million people, by 1891 it ' had increased to 29 million and today has reached ' the 49 million mark. However, present trends have ! caused some experts to estimate that the population ; may fall back to some 29 millions by the end of this ; century. ; Nowadays British couples limit their families : to two children 'or less whereas ninety years ago couples produced from five to ten children or more. . The will to smaller families has been motivated, it I is suggested, by the growing burden of parent-' hood in Western society, the lessened security for large families in the midst of intense competition and the unwillingness of women to assume the ties ; of motherhood in an era of increased social status ! and activity. The British answer today, at least, appears to be in the direction of even greater social assistance ! to those raising families. ATLIN REVERSES rRIENDS OF W. D. SMITH, who was Member of I the last Legislative Assembly for Atlin, will regret his now apparent defeat which will be subjected likely to confirmation by a judicial recount in view of the close majority and unusual aspects ; in regard to rejected and irregularly handled bal-i lots. Mr. Smith was a hard-working and popular ! member of the last House and represented his rid- ing well. It is ironic enough for him that he should ; have von in the 1945 election when the .Socialists I jiefeated the most of the Coalitionists in this- part ; Z the Country, only to be knecked out in this latest ; TSctiqh jrhen the Coalitionists were being" so gen- erally favored, particularly in this area. Such are ; the fortunes of political war. Obviously, it was the Indian vote which reversed ; what appeared to be Mr. Smith's victory on the first preliminary count. The government, already possessing a preponderant majority of seats, can, of course, get along with one less member. The Indians, as newly enfranchised citizens, are fairly entitled to some representation in the House and ; Mr. Calder was the only candidate of the race in ', the province. As a member, he will be in a position ! to give an especial type of service and his career will be followed with particular interest. HAVE HAD. YEARS OF PLUMBINQ AND HEATING EXPERIENCE U. E.
