. THE GAZETTE. OLDS. ALBERTA , RED ROSE TE Ais good ted” RED ROSE ORANGE PEKOE is the “best tea you can buy; *-picked when only, . three days old— juicy, flavor-filled leaves. - Now packed in Aluminum. Cidade s Diamond sound Tubilea Only once in the history of any nation does. the opportunity come to | its people to celebrate the diamond jubilee of its founding. Canadians will enjoy that opportunity on July ist next, and it. is gratifying to note that the celebration will be well nigh universal from coast to coast: Canadians. no doubt, would haye with equal zest and enthusiasm celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of Confederation but for the fact that in 1917 they were engaged | in a life and death struggle in. which the very existence of Canada was at, stake. The yictory won through ‘the great sacrifices then made should but add to the graiitude and pride of our people in this year of the Diamond | Jubilee. Children today may have the oppertunity of celebrating one hundred years of Confederation, but our adult population will not, and so those who actually witnessed the inauguration of this young nation, and those who have taken part in its earlier development, will no doubt throw theinselves whole- heartedly into the ceremonies which will commemorate this historic event. It is tho repeatedly expressed desire of the National Committee created | by Parliament to promote this Diamond Jubilee celebration that it should be participated in by all the people, old and young,‘in small hamlets and, rural districts aS well as in the larger centres of population: It is the spirit of the ceremonics rather than in their elaborate character that their real. signific- ance and value will be found. The National Committee has, -therefore, urged that there. be at least | one simple little ceremony everywhere at the same hour, and have suggested that, at twelve o’clock noon on July ist in every community however small, belis should be rung, whistles- blown, and the two national anthems “God Save the King” and “O Canada” sung. And again, that at.2.30 o'clock on the afternoon of Sunday, July 3rd, a community service of general Thanksgiving. te held. For this latter service the National Conimittee is preparing a simple programme of exercises suitable for all communities. These are suggestions which can readily. be carried out in all commun- ities; and it is to be hoped that the people of the Dominion will accept the lead of their Nationzl Committee and’ unitedly co-operate with it in giving | neéd in no way iuterfere with the larger towns and effect to these suggestions. They and more elaborate programmes being arranged in most, cities, villages. It is furthér suggested that a tree be plinted in every community with fitting ceremonies to be hereafter mmred for and known as the Diamond Jubilee Confederation Tree. This, too, offers no obstacle on the score of expense to any community. Not only can such a tree be planted in some public place in all urban communities, but there would appear to. be no reason why a Confederation Tree should not be given @ place of honor in the grounds of every rural school throughout the length and breadth of the Dominton. ‘ ; As a further marking of Canada’s sixtieth birthday anniversary proposed that some public park or place in | every community be named “Canada Place” or “Canada Squaré.” Hf all such places already bear names, ther one. the designation of which has no special significance, might . be | re-named In‘accordance with this suggestion. Ievery child enrolled in a public, separate or private school in. Canada.in this Jubilee year is to receive a’medal struck in the Royal Mint at Ottawa, the gift of the National Committee, The presentation of these medils to the | pupils offers a splendid opportunity to school district officials to plan a little ceremony at which a short talk on what Confederation has meant -and has achieved for Canada could be given, and the boys and girls of loday urged to render loyalty and devotion to Canada and’ dedicate their lives in service to their country. Like most people ‘living in northern climes, Canadians are. not much given to showing their feelings.. Their patriotism is something they do uot talk about to any extent. and they are seemingly averse to display, But this Diarhond Jubilee is one occasion on which the people of Canada may. well un- bend a little; display their flag with profusion, shout and cheer. It. will do . them good; and especially should the children be encouraged to regard Dominion’ Day, 1927, as a red letter day in their young lives, and celebrate. it accordingly. : A Country of Centenarians Fish By-Products n Has Large Number of Persons Map Showing Location of Plants in Over Hundred Years Old B.C.

Years’ Backache Subdued by “Nerviline” “Backache was the bane of my life, and for two years [ was so lame as to ;be unfit for work,” writes .E..8. ; Sloane, from Georgetown. “While in ‘Smith Bros.’ Drug Store, I heard of Nerviline ‘being «a “wonderful -pain- destroyer, so I decided: to try Nervi- |line. Thanks to Nerviline, my two- ‘years’ backache was rubbed away, and today I am perfectly well.” All those who suffer from ° weak, j aching backs, those whose .muscles jare stiff, whose joints are swollen, let them try Nerviline—the liniment that inever fails. 35c. at all dealers.

WOMEN WHO ARE WEAK | | } | | Gain New Vitality by Building | | Up the Blood ; There are many women-who pass | their days in a constant state of wear- | sufficient to - perform iness. They have barely energy to enable them {their _manifold duties.. Often they |have an aching head, a miserable) | pain in the back, and limbs that feel ‘as heavy.as lead. ‘The whole trouble | ;is. due to bloodlessness. No woman \need suffer in this way. - It is easy to ; obtain a.supply of rich red blood by ; taking Dr.. Williams’ Pink Pills.. The | |new blood created by these pills | rapidly builds. up the system; head: | ‘aches and . backaches disappear, ‘energy returns and the joy of living is felt once more. .. Proof of these statements is given | by Mrs. Ed. Lanore, Stoney Point, | Ont., who says:—‘“For a long time I thad ‘been in a.very miserable condi- ition, always feeling tired. out, sleepy and weak. The least work about the ‘house would leave me helplessly tired | and nothing that I did seemed to give | per SOE Believing that a -rest might |do me good, We moved to town, but, , contrary to expectations, instead of | getting better I was growing steadily \weaker.

To ac- 'complish the building of the line as | rapidly as possible, the contractors’ have three gangs working. The first started greding at Weyburn’ and is working in a south-westeriy direc- tion; the second is. working’ in a north-easterly direction from. Rad- ville, and the third gang started grad- ing work 11 miles southwest of Wey- burn and is-working-to-meet-the-ether Loss Ran Into Millions Forest Fires In Canada Last Year Were Costly The forest fire situation in Canada during 1926 was. again a very serious one. There were marked contrasts in fire hazard conditions between the East and the West and consequently wide differerces in the total fire losses. in the two parts of the Domin- ion. In Eastern Canada both the spring and fall were cook and rainy so that new low records for forest fire losses were established. A mid- summer period of fire hazard occurred in the East generally but it. passed without any great damage being done. In Western Canada, 1926 close- ly followed the two previous years, both in the intensity of the hazard and in the fire losses: Danger condl- tions continued, genérally, throughout the season and the scant precipation afforded little relief from only spring to late fall. According to figures prepared in the Forest Service of the Department: of the Interior, there were 5,529 forest fires in Canada last year which burn- ed over a total area of 1,824,015 acres. The total gross damage .and. loss 1s estimated at $7,468,343. Air Not Yet Congusred Casualties In Long Flights Greater Than the Successes Since’. Lindbergh winged his ‘way through hail and fog and night to Paris, men have begun to talk about flying to Honolulu, to Australia, and to Japan. It is quite possible that, in time, such feats may be accomplish- ed, but. to conclude that thoy are go- ing to be accomplished .as a.mere matter of course is. to fly into the face of experience, Lindbergh, with extraordinary luck as well as_ skill, got to Paris. But in the meantime Pinedo fell into the océan near the Azores. Lieutenants: Carr and Gill- man, flying from England to India fell into the Persian Gulf. And Nun- gesser and Coli ‘flying across. the Atlantic disappeared. That is a price in casualties which ought at least to qualify some of the easy optimism about -over-the-ocean flights. : Chief of Western Castoins J. W. Kempston, of Yorkton Receives Appointment . : ‘Joseph William Kempston, of York- ton, Sask., has been appointed | divi- siomal chief of. the customs and: ex- cise preventive service for the west- ern district, which includes’ the provinces of Saskatchewan, Alberta and Manitoba. Announcement to this effect was made by Hon. W. D. Euler, federal minister-of the department ot national revenue. , Mr. Kempston is a former officer of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and his. varied experiences in this connection gives him a wide know- ledge of the western stretches. of the Dominion. He is to assume his new duties at once with headquarters at Winnipeg. ~ This. completes the list of appoint- ments of divisional chiefs of the re- organized preventive service for the seven districts of Canada. - Would Speed Up Mail Air Service for Incoming Mail From Britain is Planned Arrangements have practically. been completed with the British authorti- tles to have the other side so that. it can be taken by ‘plane at Father Point and distrib- uted to Quebec, -Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto, according to. the post- master-general.
