left to rot on the wharves in shanghai the salt herring industry in british columbia was forced to shut down before the season was half over pulp exports continue exporters of pulp say that the situation has not yet affected them and that shipments to both japan and china have not been inter rupted if hostilities continue long however there is always a possi bility of japan establishing a

the cost and the province and municipalities take over the balance mr beckett stated the legislation was framed to be retroactive to last august modern parable prodi- cal father although lacking the atmosphere of inspiration peculiar to the par able of the prodigal son the follow ing nevertheless is a great challenge to the fathers of our daya certain man had two sons and the younger of them said to his father father give me the portion of thy time at tention companionship and counsel which falleth to me and he divid ed unto them his living in that ho paid the boys bills and sent him to school and tried to believo that he was doing his full duty and not many days after the father gathered all his interests and inspirations and took journey into a far country into a land of stocks and bonds and securities and other things which do not interest a boy and there lie wasted his precious opportunity of being a chum to his own son and when ho had spent the very best of his life and had gained money there arose a mightly famine in his heart and he began to be in want of sym pathy and companionship he said how many men of my acquaintance havo boys whom they understand and who understand them who talk- about their boys and associate with them and seem perfectly happy in the comradeship of their sons and i perish here with hearthunger will ariso and go to my son and he arose and came to his son but while he was yet afar off his son saw him and was moved with aston- israent he drew back and was ilt at ease son he said i have sin ned against heaven and in thy sight i am not worthy to be called thy fa ther forgive mo now and let me be your friend but the son said not so i wish it were possible but it is too late there was a time when i wanted companionship and counsel and to know things but you were too busy i got companionship and i got information but i got the wrong kind and now alas i am wrecked in body and soul there is no more heart loft in me and there is nothing you can do for me it is too hue too late a mother could apply the same artice to her association with her daughter according to economic experts the earth will support 5200000000 people and the present
