We have had, three engagements to- day (May 2) and still have a din- ner party to attend tonight „ Columbus is full of retired army people, and they all carry on in a style "similar to their army days, although not quite so elab- orate and, of course, they can't get the help they used to have before the wg , How- ever, they are all very interest- ing and all have travelled every • - where you can think of . . * * WE drove through the military reserve (Fort Henning, Ga.) on the way in, and you never would know the place , . . miles and Miles of barracks and other build- ings erected during the war . . .

OFFER OLD SCHOOL GODERICH—At a meeting of Goderich District Collegiate In- stitute Board, • it was reported that the new building has pro- gressed to the point where its completion is assured well in advance- of the opening of school in September.

This time it is the Canad- ian dratha league. It had no money. It wanted to make ex- travagant awards. The brewer has lots of money. He would underwrite the financial needs of the drama league. The price he asked was that the trophy should hear his name. The drama lea- gue succumbed to the brewer's temptation. So now it will not be the Governor General's trophy but the brewer's trophy that will be the award offered to the win- ning dramatic society. It is high class publicity for the brewer. For the drama league it is an association • that it cannot afford to make if it wants to be free anca independent and if it wants to hold the respAt and good will of the Canadian public. It is not to be tolerated that our institu- tions 'of learning and culture should accept the patronage of the brewer.
