And it's moving in the right direction—,toward larger pay ro11s, What might be called the most significant anonuncenrent of past few weeks came from the factory inspection branch• of the provincial department of labor last week. It revealed that the department had approved nearly two million dollars worth. of planus. for new factories or addition's to existing factories and at'flce buildings du,rtnig the month of May, This total might he passed over without mach notice, were it not for the comparison that goes with it. The exact total for May this year was $1,507,000. For the same month. Fast year, the total was only $130,600. The inference to be taken from this bald "report Is plain, 17nrai takably, Ontario leaders in the man- ufaotnring field can see increased mrkets ahead, and they are pre- paring to get their stare of the new business, It doesn't take much imagination to foresee what the effect of this ruauufactuu'ing expansion is likely to mean to the peovbsce generally. The increase in factory payrolls should increase the consumption cf farm products this. fall. And then cartes the cycle, with the farmer turning back some of his suivlus to the manufacturer for new equip- ment tor his farm and hie home. There are plenty of other signs in sight to back up this inference. One of the largest baking companies in the )u'ovince has had to step up Production • sharply in the past two weeks to keep up with the demand. For this first time in several yearn. the employees of this eekpany have had to work overtime to get orders out. ' This trend toward better business has been in the making for ewe or three Months, of course but it is in• teresting to note that the situation has become markedly better since the public mind has been rid of war fears, The determined stand of the Bri- tish Goveanmuent against the dictat- ors, and the apparent backing down of Hitler from his aggressibe moves has a great deal to do with the bau- ish'ment of Ohds dlstuebing war dread. But as far as Canada is concerned, the visit of the King and Queen has been even more ef- feotive In its influence ort the public, .Canaddan citizens have been so absorbed, in the royal tour, there has been little time left •to worry about what ncightt .happen in Europe, Aieter many false Punto"+s, it now appears almost certain that this fall will bntng a federal election, Octo- ber has been mentioned by the Ot- tawa guessers as the month for the ballotoasting, CRANBROOK the annual Garden Party of the Presbyteran Church will be held on THURSDAY, .)UNE 29th Supper Will be served froiiin b' to 8 p.m. to be followed by an ENTERTAINMENT by the Lambeth Concert Party Concert to start at 8.30 p.m, Admission ---Adults 35c Children 20c BRUSSELS POST I LET US LOOK • AT THE, PAST LFero Are Item.

Inter- ment was 10 Motint Pleasant Cem- etery. Most of us are sun-evorsitippe •s but, unhappily, Old Sol is less mer- ciful to same than to ohtres, Our skins de not all react alike. Start your sun-bathing moderately at first. Indiscriminate dawdling in the sun's rays is harmful; you might easily ruin your skin and se'orch the nutriment out of your hair. Don't forget that no matter how nicely the ,sum treats you, your skin will lose some of its natural oil during the sun-bathing process. There are two things you musk be sere to do to help protect your skin against isle drying tetndencies of tha sun: (1" cleanse your skin with palmolive soap, which derives its goodness from soothing olive and palm oil (2) maseage tihe skin every night with a good tissue cream. ;paying', pariieular attention. to tate skin about the eyes, mouth and throat. It is advisable to wear coloured glasses to protect your eyes. If your eyes are pale grey or bine, wear tinted green glasses, as light eyes are more sensitive to glare than dark ones, Use non -oily suntan lotion, screened to prevent the dangerous actinic rays of the sun harming the skin, and which atthe same time give you a smooth all-over tan.
