This sapped the strength of nations and added poverty and injustice to the other tragedies of war. Later it has led to falling prices and unemployment. folding the ceiling has been a struggle. But the results have been worth while. From 1914 to 1919 prices rose 60%. From 1939 to 1944'the rise has been only 18%.' . In this war, we Canadians are determined to head off this danger. This effort of the Canadian people has been successfill enough, to be' noted in other countries.

After care- fully scrutinizing through the haze I saw it was no less than the languid blond, Janice Strong. The second act ushered in a weird, writhing, contor- tioning, sword-swallowing performer; When she bad twisted herself so her face peered around under her -arm I recognized her as Amourous Ada Brophy. Attracted back to the orch- estra I found it was led by the very famous Glen Whirler Wylie. My attention was then diverted to- wards sounds of argument pouring forth from a door at my right. The door opened and ushered out George Copeland amid Edward Brophy, both quite red in the face. George, as a very pressing salesman was trying to sell the manager of the club, Ed.

This consisted of a box- like compartment run on pulleys, and had a small opening for tall 'George's head. This hole allowed him to straighten up and see whether we were going up or down. Stepping into a brightly-lighted street I was confronted by an out- standing bill board, in French if you can believe that—which spelled out Keithie Hackettey, a few insignificant names and a show called "Love on Mars". I went in to see the show and was not at all surprised to find Xelth possessed the best qualities of Charlie McCarthy, Wallace Berry and Frank Sinatra 'combined in one colossal suc- cess. Managing to get a word with him while he signed countless auto, graphs, I learned that Merle' Abraham, Ada Dow and Phyllis Hemmingway Also appeared in one of the chorus numbers.
