A very successful baseball tourna-
ment was held at the Thames Road
ball park on Labor Day. The wea-

croWd present. Many of, the far -
mere, were not through harvest and
conAPquently the gate receipts while
largp were not as large as they ot-
henivise would have been. The
teaMs taking part in the baseball
touittnament were Seaforth, St,
,Malys, Exeter •and Fullarton, while
theIeams competing in the girls soft
half • games were Kirkton, Chisel-

forth and St. Marys were the first

tinaie out a home run knocking it

between Exeter and Fullarton and
the latter won by the score of 11 to
10. The Exeter battery was Law-

tery was Goodley and Kerslake. The
play off was between Fullarton and
St. Marys. The first games started -

Shortly "-after two o'clock the girl's
softball was started with Kirkton
and Chiselhurst taking the field

Inner Ward. In the centre of the
'Ward is the White Tower, 90 feet
high, 116x117 feet and the walls
are 11 to 15 It. thick. The White
Tower contains the National collec-

Cheshire Cheese •
Wisdom has come to a certain
Exeter man with the years. On the
occasion of his sixty-first birthday
Pc said; -"As We now view matters,
from a mere mature nralerstanding,
we realize that all tho good people
do not belong to ottr lodge, that al'
Christians are not found in any per -
Ocular church, and that graft and
dishoilestY is about equally divided
aniong the various party organizat-
ions."
Among the odd little eating
'houses of fame, the haunts of the
'wits of olden days, is Cheshire
Cheese, up a, narrow alley off Fleet
St. Here Dr. Johnston and his
friends made revel, and where still
one may enjoy a famous 'pudding,
'containing steak, 'lark, kidney,
mushroom, oyster and spites. The
original date of the building is sonie
centuries prior to 1667 when it was
rebuilt. In this neighborhood, too,

The Embankmeitte
The Hotel Cecil, the headquarters
of the Prose' party in London, being
situate on the tantek
us embanments
of the River Thames, we saw' 'con-
siderable or the embrolitments and
we cannot pas by without giving
it some mention. The Thantee em-
bankments form a continuous riv-
erside drive extending front the
western extremity of Thames street
to Chelsea, a distance of four miles,
and has various names --Victoria,
Milbank, G•tosvenor. Road, Albert
and Chelsea. All along the drive
are beatitiful flower gardens, lawns
and parks, and great' masses of
people congregate in Vie afternoons
and evenings to enjoy the pleashnt
walks, the fIOvvere and the music
from many bands.
1' Victoria Embankment lies at the
,side of the Cecil, and extends be-
tween Blackfriars and the Houses of
Parliament. It was opened in 1870
and is fringed' by pleasant gardens
and notableejmildings, such as the
City of London school, the Temple,
Somerset House, the Savoy Hotel,
Hotel Cecil, Adelphi Terrace, White-
hall Courts, National Liberal club,
and New Scotland Yard. Along its
length of one mile are many monu-
ments, chief among. them being the
Obelisk, called Cleopatra's Needle,
now pitted with the marks of bombs
dropped during the air raids on
London, and the Memorial Of Bel-
gium's gratitude.
The. Bridges
Across the eleven miles of tide-
way of the Thames between Upper
Pool. and • Hammersmith are bus' -
teen large' bridges for general traf-
fic. Chief among them in Central
London are, Tower, London, South-
wark, Blackfriars, Waterloo and
Westminister.
Tower is a suspension bridge near
the Tower of London and its bas-
cules can be raised and lowered in
one minute. London Bridge is a
fine structure, but at the present
times is fulfilling the prophecy in
the old rhyme "London Bridge is
falling down", as one of the centre
spans has sunk several inches, and
the bridge is. closed to traffic. We
.saw workmen, as we passed under
it, trying to force the span baelt in-
to ,position,, but it as feared that it
will • all have to be replaced. Wat-
erloo is the .finest and oldest of the
bridges and .was opened on the se-
cond Anniversary of the Battle of
Waterloo, June' 18; 1817. It is
1240. feet long but,only 274 feet
wide. •
, The Sholps
As ,in Brussels and • paris, so in,
London, the women, w,ant to spend
it to* hours in. thbons. They do
not call them stores. In,a city thir-
tysirfiles square there ab, ,of course,
shops all overthePlace,-and of every'
conceivable kind. But the real shop-
, ,
ping paradise of the city is in what
is called, the West End—that is, the
,
west end of centre ,London—Oxford
;Regent and Bond etreets. The shops
are beautiful, althotigh not as large
as departmental stares in some cities
but more money is spent here than
in any other quarter of the globe.
The treasures of the -world find their
way here, are admiretlesold. and re-
turn to all the corne,rs of the earth.
Regent is a. street of fair clothes,
furs and jewels—Swan, & ..Edgars,

The National Gallery
. • , JEW •
'Althougli'less than. .100 years blot
the Natibnal Gallery has a collection
of pictures that cannot be surpassed
in the world. All the leading schools
of painters' are here` represented.
There is no need to name them or to
attempt to describe 'the pictures,
while the ifrst might be clone it is
utterly impossible to do the latter.
Suffice it to say that one conld spend
many days within its Walls and still
he in ignorance of many of the valu-
able pictures Contained in the thirty
six rooms or galleries.
Of course there are scores of oth-
er art galleries in London.—in fact
the great public -halls, the great resi-
dences in town and 'Country have So
many beautifal pictures that they
may ail be described as art galleries,

Trait sliort
There is no trouble to.get about
in London. You can go bY motorbus,
tramway, underground,: trunk, line
or fly overhead. All you need is
tbe price and not much of that, And
If you lose your way any poliCeirfan
on any corner can tell you how to
get anywhere in ,the shortest possi-
ble time. You caithot stick a police-
man on anything,, and he tells you
so nicely to. The double -deck
busses are lots of, fun, the under-
grottral is a real experience and a
dandy way to make a short cut a-
cross the city—and so easy once Yott
get on the right line. You need no

Madame Tussaud's
Madame TussO,ud's Waxworks
was missed by few of the press par-
ty. Commenced first in England in
1802, it was' on tour for about 30
years and finally settled, permalfent-
'1Y on Baker St. in 183.3, About
two hours are needed to view the
many figures in wax work, and to
say the least, they are very realistic.
One is. -tempted at times to speak to
the wax, policemen here and there,
or to shake hands with the kings
and queens, or enquire for informa-
tion from the lady secretaries in
various corners:- A great many of
the notable people of the world, par-
ticularly during the last ,century',
kings, queens, nobles, statesmen,
sportsmen, poets, authors, preachers
editors, generals, explorerersemrses
etc., are' shown. Some dead, some
still living. It is very interesting
to try to name them without refer-
ence to the catalogue. One room is
devoted to pictures and relics, while
another is called the Chamber of
Horrors, and another has tableaux
of historicel scenes. To be appre-
ciated it must be seen.
The Theatres
The Hotel Cecil Is almost in the
centre of the theatre and music hall
district, while cinemas are scatter-
ed all over the city by the hundreds.
A few minutes walk will bring' one
to -almost anyone of fifty places
of this nature, but in the busy sea-
son it is a more difficult matter, to
obtain seats. Sometimes one had
to telephone a half dozen Places 'be-
fore-oseats could be secured. How-
eveer, the most of the party spent
the few evenings we had free
in visiting some of the more impor-
tant theatres. Any kind , of a pro-
duction ina,y be seen, or ,heard --
from grand opera tti, vaudeville .
Covent Garden, Drury Lane,the Ly-
ceum, Gaiety, Daly's the Winter
Gardens, His Majesty's, The Coli-
seum, the. Palladium, The Alhambra
Victoria Palace, Albert Hall , and
Queen's Hall are among the impor-
tant nearby theatrep,oxiusidand corb
cert halls.
Parks and Gardens
Contrary to tne' general opinion
London is not all streets and builld,
ings. Few cities are so richly en-
dowed with parks, gardens and open
spaces. They have been called the
lungs of London and consist of
crown lands, of estates acquired for
parks, gardens and commons that
have been preserved from enelosure
They are distributed, over the city,
but central London has a great share
One can wander around to no end,
almost, admiring the gardens, the
flowers, the little lakes and canals
in St. James Park, the Green Park,
Hyde Park (640 acres) Regents
Park (411 acres.); Kensington Gar-
dens; Royal Botanic Gardens, Zoo-
logical Gardens, Kew Gardens and
