McClary's Electric Range saves money by saving current on the "stored heat" principle. You can bake for hours in Mc- Clary's Electric Oven after the cur- rent is turned "off"—because the oven has double insulation. You can do practically all your boiling or frying on "low" because "TOR -RED" Protected Elements retain heat.

Among the passengers sailing for England on the Canadian Pacific steamship "Marloch" July 3rd from Montreal was a, large party of teachers, who will join the tour of the Overseas Educational League, which this year is covering Great Britain, France and Belgium. A set of 12 beautiful colored pic- torial menu cards illustrative of the history and romance of Canada has just been placed in service by the Canadian Pacific Rafway on its crack transcontinental expresses, the Trans -Canada Limited and the Mountaineer.

The newsprint production in May this year both for Canadian and United States mills was greater than the previous months. Cana- dian mills made a new high record, the total for the month being 117,- 833 tons, compared with a previous high figure of 115,572 tons and their production ,for the first five months of the year exceeded that of 1923 by 56,087 tons or approx- imately 11 per cent. "Canada is the country for the Scotsman and I am going to bring every opportunity that Canada can offer, especially in farming, before my compatriots," declared the Rev. William Dunlop, M.A., F.S.A., of Buckhaven, Fifeshire, when in Montreal recently, on a tour of the Dominion investigating its agricul- tural possibilities, "But you are eadiy in need of more people and we t.an supply cnem." Thro.,gh the generosity of the British Museum, the Fine Arts School of the City of Quebec has been enriched by the donation of a precious collection of books on arts, which contain over 3,000 reproduc- tions of masterpieces. Among his- toric schools represented are the English of the 14th Century, the Italian of the 16th Century, the Ger- man of the 15th Century and the French and Danish of the 18th and 17th Centuries respectively. For the 12 months ending May 31, Canada had a favorable trade balance of nearly $200,000,000. Ex- ports during that period totalled $1,069,715,880 and imports $873,- 367,752 873;367,752 in value. This represents an increase in value over the ex- ports of 1923 of $110,000,000 and of $32,000,000 over the imports of that year. The chief increases in exports were noted in agriculture, wood and paper, The first residence of the Jesuit Fathers at Sillery, which was built in 1689, has been presented to the Province of Quebec by the sons of the late Hon. R. R. Dobell, a min- ister in the Laurier cabinet of 1896. This house, which stands at the foot of the path outside the City of Que- bec up which Wolfe's army climbed to the Plains of Abraham, is the oldest in Canada and the second oldest in North America, the oldest being situated in Florida. Something new in the way of "stunts" was staged at Montreal on July 4th by the publicity asso- ciation of that city. as a send-off to Canadian and United States delegates going to the annual con- vention of the Associated Advertis- ing Clubs of the World, which opened on July 12 at London, Eng- land. The 250 men of the party rolled a huge ball made of wood and canvas through the principal streets from a local hotel to the docks occupied by the Canadian Pa- cific steamship "Montcalm," upon which they su'bsequentiy sailed. On her arrival at Quebec, June 14, the Canadian Pacific. steamship "Empress of France" broke the rec- ord for the fastest tim- made be- tween that port and Southampton, England, from which she sailed, having maintained an average speed of over 19 knots. This vessel also holds the record for the run between Quebec and Liverpool. Arrangements for the Pageant of Empire, to be held at the British Empire Exhibition f u'.y 21 -August 30, are now rapidly completing. Episodes showing the history of Canada and the other f)arninions as well as of the Mother Country from the .earliest times to the present day are being organized with the assist- ance • of prominent residents. of the Dominion now in London. Hon. J. E. Perrault, Minister of Colonization, Mines and Fisheries for the Province of Quebec, on his return from a recent extensive trip to the Temiscaming ' district of that province; stated that there were over 2,000 prospectors exploring the gold -fields - of Quebec and at least a million dollars would be expended in development work in the region during the course of the season. According to figures prepared by the freight department of the Ca- nadian Pacific Railway, the export grain movement via Vancouver reached a total of 48,971,930 bushels on May 31, 1924, compared with a total of 17,387,715 bushels as on May 31, 1923. In each instance the figures cover the crop year com- mencing September lst. The 'a - crease is therefore 31,584,213 hushels or 181.5 per cent.
