which at first it received from the

sap0 the' Lenrlon Times, "has boon to

art, history, literature and other sub-
jects of interest, to institute a re-
vival of old -tinge village industries

speaking, to relieve and brighten the

SIXTY YEARS 013' PROGRESS.
Royal Colonial Institute Celebrates
Its Diamond Jubilee.
The Royal Colonial Institute cele-
brates its diamond jubilee this year.
The largest and most influential or-
ganization of Its kind, it can look
back upon sixty years of progress and
effective contribution to the develop-
ment of the Empire.
Founded on June 26th, 1868, the
institute is as old as the Dominion of
Canada, and its story is a pocket edi-
tion of the story of the Empire Over-
seas. There were 174 members at
the start, and the Duke of Manches-
ter, Lord Normanby, Lord Carnarvon,
and Lord Grenville were among the
first vice-presidents. In the follow-
ing year the membership had risen to
300, while the membership now ex.
coeds 14,000.
In 1871. its staff consisted of Dr.
to a eight of at least three feet. The
sheets should overlap et least six
inches and be folded carefully over
all corners and junction points of
the floor and side walls. In the
case of refrigerator cars, howe4er,
no paper should be placed over the
end walls or central floor lack be-
tween the side doors. The floor
should be bedded with dry hay fir
straw, leaving the hunker ends free,
and exercising due care to prevent
its sifting under the racks or false
floors. Place Side tracks or scantl-
