The speaker then faced Ihe cenotaph, and in a clear voice called the names inscribed thereon, as listed below. Kipling's " Recessional." was then sung, after which J. .A, Fi-^ser, chairman of th-? school board, gave an address, pay- ing a tribute to the men of Carib.;o who gave their all that others might live. He congratuUfed the memorial committee on their efforts, which had resulted in such a credit ible monument — one of 'which the district might well be proud. J. .^I.f'Yorston, the district's representative in the Legislature,. aUo made a short address, speaking of the lessons to be learnt from Ihe late war, and the incentive to bringing into everyday life lhe spirit of sacrifice as illustrated by those who had laid down their lives for king and country. Rev. H. B. .Allen then offered up the benediction, patrol leader Jack Ratledge .sounded the " Last Post," and the singing of the national antheiu brought the^ceremiony to a close. -The booniing'oC'minute gum^duririg the .sei^'ice 'mi.ist'li^ve reminded the returned men of the days-when burial services were conducted in and behind the line.s while on active Sfrvice.

Considering the short lime they have been organized, their drill nnd deportment were fav- orably commented upon, R. R.

A.prayer was then offered up by Rev. J A. Petrie, after which Major Gook made an address ou the general idea of the monument, and enlriisled it to the school board, on whose ground it is erected, and especially charging the younger generation to treal it with respect and niaintain the traditions for which it stood. The speaker then faced Ihe cenotaph, and in a clear voice called the names inscribed thereon, as listed below. Kipling's " Recessional." was then sung, after which J . .A, Fi-^ser, chairman of th-? school board, gave an address, pay­ing a tribute to the men of Carib.;o who gave their all that others might live. He congratuUfed the memorial committee on their efforts, which had resulted in such a credit ible monument — one of 'which the district might well be proud. J . .^I.f'Yorston, the district's representative in the Legislature,. aUo made a short address, speaking of the lessons to be learnt from Ihe late war, and the incentive to bringing into everyday life lhe spirit of sacrifice as illustrated by those who had laid down their lives for king and country. Rev. H . B. .Allen then offered up the benediction, patrol leader Jack Ratledge .sounded the " Last Post," and the singing of the national antheiu brought the^ceremiony to a close.

• -The booniing'oC'minute gum^duririg the .sei^'ice 'mi.ist'li^ve reminded the returned men of the days-when burial services were conducted in and behind the line.s while on active Sfrvice.

Several wreaths were laid upon tha monument, including one from th« local branch of the G . W . V , . A . W e congratulate tbe Boy Scouts and Girl Guides on ihelr smartness and splendid showing. Considering the short lime they have been organized, their drill nnd deportment were fav­orably commented upon,

R. R. C a r v . r was director of ceremonies, and the smoothness with which the whole program was carried out is a tribute to his ability, and the time and effort he devoted to the preparations.

The following are the names eingraved on the.cenotaph of those.men from this district who made the supreme sacrifice, and in whose honor the memorial is erected ; —

Box 28. Quesnel, B. C.

G O V E R N M E N T C O N V E R ­SION PROPOSALS.

The Federal Minister of Finance is offering, on very a t trac t i ve te r m s, to e X eh a n ge Victory Bonds maturing on the 1st of next December for new bonds bearing the same rate of interest, and running for a further period of either five or ten years. As an ex-

• tra inducement a bonus of a full-month's interest is given to those accepting the offer, which is open until Septeir.-ber 30th.

The Minister's proposals carry us back to the grim war days of 1917, when these bonds were first put out: Under the impetus of the pa­triotic appeal, and the inten­sive campaign of the first victory loan organization, the issue 'Was successful to a de­gree that the most optomis-tic had not dared to antici­pate. Literally, hundreds of thousands 0 1 Canadians be­came, for the first time, in­vestors in bonds - a result of tremendous importance to the country as well as to the investors themselves. Accu­mulated savings v;ere inves­ted, and surplus carningofor many months ahead were pledged, calling for a very practical response to the ap­peal of the Minister of Fin­ance at that time to "save and serve."

The 1922 maturity was par­ticularly favored by small investors, and, even as it was important to Canada at tliat time that thoy should have invested in fhe bonds, so is it desirable now frcm a nati­onal as v>'ell as a personal standpoint that their invest­ment should continue. It would indeed be regrettable i f any considerable number of the holders of bonds sub­scribed to under these cir­cumstances should pass over the miiiistci's offer wilh thu idea of using the money at maturity for less sound in­vestments or unnecessary ex­penditure.
