The early Britons painted their. faces blue. The staunch. Presbyterians were. endled “true. blues", the Corenan- ters having ‘adopted blue as their col- ov, red being the royal color.

April 3. 1936 Dear Mr, Editer:Tt is not just the tight thing te ds to make you the goat, but as we have no representative in parliament nt Victoria, what else can we do?. That reminds us ‘of the faet that the American revolution” was eaused by taxation without representa: tion, They did net call it BPA. in those days days. ut it amonnted to the about. same as what.we have now. Tn addition te the several blunders the provincial government has made during the present regime, we note that the next hove tow ards Fascism is to he the schools. We just wonder how mitch more of that the people will stand for. They tell us that “Britons shall never be slaves”. but there seems anything to prevent them having soft- ening of the brain. We note that there is to be no change in the liqnort laws. Thank God for that. .Had the government shown as good judgment about everything else it has done, and done nothing at all, it would have a more satisfactory record than it has. One just wonders lf Pattullo fancies himself in the rolt of Hitler, or if he is. getting paid by the C.C.F. to force people to vote C.C. P. Certainty he does not think that noyone, with any sense at all, will re- turn Lim to power—or perhaps-he will take n leaf out of Hitler's book, and conduct a 100% election such. as has off, in, Germany. We ne to think : the; iying dawn. When we note the gross stupidity. not only in B.C. but throughout the world, if would scem that the minds, if any, of the. people had either been petrified or yone ‘soft. All during the past twenty “years it ‘seems to be im- possible to point out anything done, thet bes been done right. Even the Gengue of Nations has not shown good sense, At the bnilding of the Tower Babel the Almighty confused the ton- gues of the people in. order to stop their silly actions, and today it would seem that similar action had heen taken on the so-ernlled brains of the nations, If sneh is not the case we would like a better explanation of the efeumstimees St were devout evough to get up on.Sun- day morning to attend service at 6.00 However, we are pleased to note ‘that our people hererbouts have gone those follza one better, In order to express their appreciation: of all the manifold Messings of Divine ‘ Provi- dence, our efficient government,'.and superb weather for crop purposes, they now assembble * themselves ‘together about 800 p.m.on Saturday night and continne with feasting, musie and dan- cing to worship the Lord until around 4.00 nm, Sunday.

About:six million pairs of men's and boy's s pants, from outing shorts to full dress, were made in Canada last year, whieh just about represents ‘the mar- keting.
