Last week, a radio show, seem- ed to bear out that contention. A Can- adian, visiting In Chicago, attended one of the morning radio shows where they interview members of the aud- ience. On his card he had written that it was deplorable that the Americans were so ignorant of their neighbour to the North, The Master of Ceremonies called him to the microphone, along with some visiting High School stud- ents, whom he felt sure would show the Canadian that such was not the case and invited the Canadian to pose a few questions, The first was, "How many provinces make up the Domin- ion?" No answer was forthcoming, and one girl on being asked, replied, "I take history, not geography." The second was, "Which was the last pro- vince to enter?" Again no answer was forthcoming from the students and the qiiestinn was put to the studio audience, Aft0r considerable time, one hestitantly ventured "Newfoundland" and was proclaimed correct. The 044.4. question was, "I am returning to my home in Hamilton from Minneapolia„ in what direction am I travelling?"' Only the Master of Ceremonies .carne up with the right answer, :"North, East." This ended the interview and. it's just like we've always said,"—Pal- merston Observer, HARRY BROWNE s Repairing SHOES sale 1 111111111111111111111111111111•11111111111111111111111•11311111111 "34', rage Four COMING EVENTS CORONATION TEA AND SALE— The Salvation Army is holding a Coronation Tea and Sale, Saturday May 23rd., at 2.30 p,m., at the Town Hall.
