THE FISH+EN.111 31T On either side oft thetobacco ex- hibit which represents the. Canadian tobacco industry, -are t' •o .cases of the, various fishes found in Canadian waters. THE INDUSTRIAL SECTION The Industrial section is eloquent of the remarkable growth of Can- ada's manufacturing industry. Blan- kets; hats, shoes, silks, furniture, steel products, castings, motor cars, canoes, the products of the Canadian Millers'- Association, foods of all kinds, cold storage, flannels, velour, overcoatings, electric machines, ran- ges, stoves, agricultural implements, rubber machinery of all kinds, news- papers and wool—everything in fact that can be manufactured • for the use of man. POUI.IiRY His Majesty, the King, was pleased to accept a`trio of Canadian Poultry —Barred Plymouth Rocks -which were exhibited at the British Poultry Exhibit. They were three of the 34 Canadian;, birds which travelled 6,000 miles to take part in the Second World's Poultry Congress at Barcel- ona, and on their arrival at, Wembley were laying as usual -a fact that speaks volumes for the stamina and constitution, of the Canadian stock. SILVER. &+'_OX'. The Silver Fox 'pelts which are on view at the Canadian Pavilion, are the finest that have, ever been seen on Exhibition. ; .The breeding of foxes in Canada has now been put upon the same basis as the breeding of any prime bred live stock. Foxes are now registered under the Cana- dian National Live Stock Records. WOOL Although wool does not figure in Canadian export, there is a fine ex- hibit at the Canadian Pavilion. When the,King cameto the wool case there was a ring of pride in his voice when he said to the King of Italy, "Thin wool was grown on my son's; ranch' in Alberta, Canada." THE EFFECT OF THE EXHIBI- TION The Canadian Authorities are more than satisfied with the, Exhibition as a media of; trade. It is a cardinal point with Canada that her entire ex- hibit is to demonstrate in no uncer- tain manner, the resources andpo- tentialities of the Dominion, and that her Sectional stands are not mere huckster's :' booths for catchpenny* trade. Consequently no actual sales takeplace in the Pavilion. What passes out is given away as samples. One result of the "Exhibition is that c n wants to come to Canada. everyone Hensall *** ***.'** ***- x a One Half of the taxes paid to -cin y go for things the average citizen 'doesn't want, and a great portion of the balance for things he does snot need. •; ar EXETER COUNCIL Exeter, Monday,` July 28, 1924 A regular session of the Municipal Council.

SOFT BALL On Thursday, July 24th, the Main St. and Caves Pres. game had to be called off owing to rain. On Friday Trivitt Mem. went down and took tflhe -measure of Centralia by a score of 7-0 in a fair, 'good game,' Centralia making some errors at bad times. Girls' Results On Friday the James St. girls won their league, when they defeated the Trivitt girls in a heavy batting ,game: The James St.. girls seemed to be on a batting bee. By this win the James St. girls win the league with one loss and five wins. The others have lost two or more. The girls have enjoy- ed the games and got to be real .ball players and drew bigger crowds than the boys. SOUND SENSE FROM CHRISTIAN GUARDIAN The an, ;GiGiuardian n all fair - nes h":u,f hu s toChristite tiub s ciiestioin o t proposed plebicite to be taken in Oc- tober makes the -following comment: "Temperance people in the prov- ince have urged that sufficient time had hardly been given for the -satis- factory trying out of the present measure, but they are not inclined to stand too' strongly on that claim, and many of them will be ready to welcome the 'announcement that a vote is to be taken. In an issue of this sort, the people in a broad way, oughttoto be given the rightht of decis- ion, and those citizens of Ontario who believe in the Ontario Temper- ance Act, would ``be - the last people in the province to desire that the Act should be kept in force if a majority of the people of the province do not believe in it. "In the long run what is best for the people and for the -country will probably prevail, and temperance people are in no sense fearful either of the immediate or the most distant results if a matter of this sort can be brought to •a fair-minded, intelli- gent and conscientious issue. It is expected that the announcement as to the precise form in which the mat- ter will be voted `on will be made shortly, :and it need hardly be stat-!, ed°that' it is also expected that Pre- mier Ferguson' will live 'up'to his promise that the ballot Will be in every particular; straightforward and fair." GARDEN PARTY The garden party given by the Ladies' Aid of Caven church on the Manse lawn, on Friday evening last was a gratifying success to the com- mittee in charge and all concerned. Refreshments and soft drinks were served at, booths and the "Lady with the thousand ..pockets" was a special feature and furnished lots of amuse- ment to the juvenile element. A goodly supply, of cooking was sold and everybody enjoyed the evening. Dashwood brass band furnished .the, music and their many beautifully rendered selections brought out much favorable comment from those in attendance. Before going to the grounds, the nand played several catchey airs,on'Main street. The pr- seeds amounted to about $100.60. \7cGILLIVRAY FARMER FOUND DEAD IN FIELD Parkhill, July 6.—A sudden death took place ;iisiea' Greenway, McGillivray rp this morsaigJohn Faster a farm ea about 45 year of b,g.e, was pound dead in a field '`jack of the {orchard an, his faun.
