on November 1 1 TO PLACE WREATHS to Take Salute for March Past Erection of a temporary cenotaph on the green south of the Memorial hall at which an Impressive ceremony of placing wreaths will be conducted, is a feature of extensive plans being made for observance of Remembrance day In Edmonton. Placing of memorial wreaths on the cenotaph, as conducted In most Other cities on Remembrance day, will be observed here at the temporary cenotaph by various military units and veteran organizations at a ceremony scheduled for 2:30 p.m. on November 11. Distance of the Cross of Sacrifice in the Edmonton cemetery from the centre of the city makes such a ceremony there inconvenient, and the temporary cenotaph will eliminate this objection. Present plans for the ceremony are that organizations placing wreaths will parade past the cenotaph, along Macdonald drive to 102 where Hon.

W. L. Walsh, lieutenant-governor of Alberta, will take the salute from a saluting base erected at that point. Paraders will continue north on 102 from there to a dispersing point. This ceremony will not interfere with the annual Remembrance day service which will be held in the Memorial hall under the chairmanship of Mayor Knott.

As in former years at this service, Miss Beatrice Crawford will play a pianoforte prelude, followed by the invocation. Howard Stutchbury will sing a "Lest We Forget" and Delbert Mc-Farland will sing "In Flanders Fields." The Last Post will be sounded by Bugler J. Ratcllffe just before 11:00 a.m. and at that hour ft round of gun fire will usher in the two minutes' silence. Edmonton war veterans will play a prominent part in observances of Remembrance day, which will be held throughout the length and breadth of Canada in memory of the dominion's soldier dead.

Climaxing a two-weeks' sales campaign of poppies and wreaths, SO uniformed members of Edmonton military units will sell Vet Craft poppies on the streets on Saturday, Nov. 10.

Taxpayers Strike StiOebulous Was Threatened at Meet-' ing Held Last September Edmonton's long-threatened taxpayers' strike was still nebulous as the zero hour approached for the strike threatened, at a meeting of taxpayers last September. At that meeting taxpayers were asked not to pay their third instalment of taxes, due Nov. 12, and to pay no more taxes until the attitude of the new city council, taking office after the November 14 election, was ascertained. City officials say there is no apparent evidence a strike. Payments are reported as "good." It is admitted that a large number of property owners are not paying taxes either voluntarily or involuntarily.

It is suspected that the great majority not paying do not have the money to do so. R. D. Tighe, K.C., prominent at the September taxpayers' meeting, says that he knows of no actual taxpayers' strike in progress.

Job Preference Sought by Body Jobless Ex-Servicemen Tax-. payers to Approach City Council Plans to urge on the city council their two-fold objective of preference In employment and non-forfeiture of ex-servicemen's property were laid at meeting of the recently-formed Unemployed Ex-Ser-vicemen'i Taxpayers' association held last night at 10012 101A ave. Chairman Wilfrid E. Rose told the gathering that the organization was not asking for the cancelation of tax arrears but merely wanted the city to defer forfeiture of ex-servicemen's property because of arrears until they were gainfully employed. The city provides a stay of action for three years for unemployed taxpayers but the organization wish this extended indefinitely.

It was pointed out that the federal government had promised preference in relief work to unemployed ex-servicemen and therefore the civic authorities should make the same provision. The organization, Mr. Rose explained. Is taking no part in the civic election and is entirely non-political. 8.

There can be no doubt about it, in the opinion of the Edmonton star-gazer. The position of the heavenly constellations, he is positively adverse to the stability of the bridge as from Nov. 1, and the danger is increasing every day.

There was a second crisis period at 5:46 a.m. on Friday, and though it too was safely passed the ultimate crash may come at any time, any day. The astrologer is also convinced that Mussolini and Hitler will be assassinated next year, "Foundations Insecure' Asked what he thinks will cause the bridge's collapse, Mr. Mueller said that the foundations are not sound enough, and the vibrations of the huge structure, linked up with the vibrations of the planets, will presently be its undoing. And the people still keep crossing over.

Werner Mueller is a quiet-spoken man, who. is giving his life to the study and promotion of astrology and doing It with the devotion and enthusiasm of an apostle. He is German-born and was a merchant in his home-land, coming to Canada six years ago and to Edmonton live years ago. His mission here and now is, as ha puts it himself, to "help people live right and happily by relating themselves properly to the heavenly bodies." "I am absolutely convinced, he told a Journal interviewer, "that there is a connection between planets and people and that every human being on this globe is under the influence of the stars.
