PRAISE OF bOMIMON HEARD ON EVERY SIDE Since July 12 British Have Taken 1000 Square Miles of Land, 250 Villages, 120,000 Huns. LONDON, Sept. 30, Andrew Bonar Law, chancellor of the exchequer, speaking; today at a meeting opening the autumn war savings commission, said since July 12 troops of the British Kmpire had captured 1000 square miles of territory.

250 villages and more than 120,000 German prisoners. Mr. Bonar Law announced that General Allenby's forces had taken 10,000 additional Turkish prisoners In l'alestino. Alluding to the Palestine campaign, Mr. Bonar Law said: "The magnificent success of our armies in Palestine has resulted in the extinction of the greater part of the Turkish army, but something more is going to follow." The chancellor said it had been promised that if the enemy continued MONDAY MORNING LINE OF DRUNKS DISAPPEARS Ing straightened out and got on the wuy to becoming worthy citizens.

Those statements have the advan 1 tage of being facts which can bo proven by recourse to the books of the department, the court lists for the year showing that tho cases of "drunks" average less than two per duy us against nearly seven prior to Prohibition.

During tho present month the list ot cases under the net had been slightly below the average, amounting to 36, the number for August being still lower, only 23 cases appearing on the list for that month.

Serious Crime, That the enforcement of Prohibition has had a beneficial effect on the suppression of serious crime Is the opinion ot officials of the department, the records showing that In the past twelve months offences traceable to the use ot liquor have greatly diminished. An argument used In the past by advocates of the use of liquor to the effect that the abolition of the bars and the eliminating of intoxicating liquor from the list of articles obtainable across the counter would cause a tremendous increase in tho number of "hop heads" and "dope fiends," has also received its conge. It Is admitted by the police and can be verified by their records that the number of cases of drug using has appreciably fallen off since Oct. 1. 1917.

although It Is admitted that there Is still a considerable traffic In drug carried on In the city. Most of the drunkenness which is brought to the attention of the police at the present time, is traceable to the cates the effect of tle Prohibition measure, the year's results have been most suenesnful, and whereas in the papt, the "drunk" llni at the police rourt was In the nature of "queue," today the "booze artist" Is usually lonely In the dock. On the streets the spectacle of men reeling from the doors of saloons has become the exception rather than the rule and the work of the policeman on the beat has therefore been greatly diminished.

In an address punctuated with rich humor and 'an eloquence which won i for him fame as a lecturer on his re i cent tour through the eastern cities of! Canada and the United States eulogiz ing the seer ic beauties of the Pacific Northwest, Mr.

Frank 15. Riley treated the members of the Kotary Club to one of his characteristic talks at the regular weekly luncheon at the Hotel: Vancouver. Mr. Hilcy told of the impression Which he believed he had made on the I Speaker Declares Sir Arthur Currie Has Become Great War Leader. "Forty six Months With the Troops" was the topic of the address given to the Canadian Club at the luncheon at the Hotel Vancouver by Col.

tho Kev. lK attle, C.M.O., director of chaplain sorvice for Canada, In which the speaker pointed out the growth of the Imperial Idea through the war, an idea which, he. said, would soon take in not only the whole ot the English speaking world, the Anplo saxon world, but the Saxons also He stated, too, that the Imperial authorities had spoken of the Canadian corps as being tho finest fighting unit in tne British army, and not only that but it was the tmest fighting corps in Kurope today. The one man who had stood out supreme in this war. with the exception possibly, of General Halts, was Sir Arthur W.

Currie. He was a man who, when he went away from home, had not much use for religion, but during these years of great stress and anxiety he had come to lean upon the strong arm of Almighty Uod, and he had, some months ago, been received into the church by Bishop de Fender. Imperial Idea Growing. Speaking of some of the big things that had been brought out by the war, Colonel Beattie stated that one was the revelation of the Imperial idea, which had been working subtly and perhaps tub consciously for the last 200 or 300 years, but which manifested itself when war broke out when, from every part of the Empire there were cabled messages to knelami. "Mother, we are with you." He spoke of crossing the Atlantic with a great Armada, guarded on the horizon super dreadnoughts.

Then there came steaming through the line, the (Juee. Man the band of which played The Maple Leaf." to which the re!" wis plaved "Britannia Rules the Waves." This power of the Imperial idea was winning great rcsulus, for men from all over the Kmpire could see the magnificence of Great Britain. Meen from all parts lay side by side irlThe hospitals, and when they talked Canada was always spoken of as rfg the greatest of all the Dominions. Another magnificent thing was the wav in which fhe people of the old country had received the men from Canada, some of the best homes being open to men and officers alike. Monarch is KsscntiaL There was one thing of which he had been assured, although there bad been many who had gone from these shores, who had not much use for the king, and that was that a was essential.

They bad been told that the British Kmpire was crumbling awav. but could they imagine, in a republic, the men of the astern being loyal to Mr. fcmith from Yorkshire. Th king was eaaen tinl because the monarchy held us iis grip and because the king under lTuoryofhowthe king had cried when he had stood over the bed of an 18 ye.ar old boy with both hands and feet shot off, Col. Beattie stated that the king ho could weep with Ins people was worthy of his crown; arV befitted him more than the tels in his crown.

These men, he said, had not the slightest conception of the beauties of this country until they had seen the scenic views and heard the story of the west. 'h his topic was 'The Pacific Northwest," Mr.

Riley went afield and told of hat the United States was doing in the war, of the wonderful feeling of co operation which the citizens of that country felt toward Canada and the Mother Land. "The. story of this province in the war." he said, "is one of the romances of the great struggle. I told them in the east what you have done. We have no Mother Land, but somehow I feci that U1 the great Allied nations are in the melting pot.

We are all fighting more and more as a single soul here in America." Mr. Riley dwelt on the important part the airship is playing in the war, stating that the victory would be won by this means. He referred to the great supply of spruce which is being sent from the west. t'rcUit to bili nt Xavy. Paying a tribute to Great Britain, the spea ker stated that at least DO per of the credit for final victory would be given the British navy.

It its (Jreat Britain, he said, that had supplied all the bottoms with which the United Slates soldiers were being transported to the batllefront. He pointed out that although the United States hud few passenger ships, that country was turning out freighters by the hundreds. He stated that there were 171 shipbuilding ways in the slates of Oregon and Washington and every day and a half a wooden ship was being sent into the water. There was no time even for christening, lie said, He referred to the unconditional surrender of Bulgaria as the beginning of the inevitable end. He was proud, be said, of the Allies and his countrymen were proud to fight shoulder to shoulder to stubborn Britain, heroic France and brave little Belgium, which country had risen from her ushes and was again winning victories.

G. T. ADAMS IS KILLED Quality Dentistry Five cents used to pay for a loaf of bread, a bottle of milk, a nut bar, and a street car ride. It won't pay. for any of these today.

The cost of all these commodities has gone up aiid you have cheerfully paid them, realizing that the merchant, as well as the laborer, is worth his hire. Increased expenses have also affected the streetcar ride. The ride which formerly cost five cents now costs a great deal more. COMPARED WITH 1914, MATERIALS L'SED BY THIS COMPANY HAVE RISEN 102 PER CENT; WAGES HAVE RISEN CO TO 80 PER CENT. Five cents will no more pay the cost of a street car ride than buy a loaf or a bottle of milk.
