Tho collegiate iate auditorium was prettily decorated for the occasion, the colorings being love- ly and the scheme of decorations de- cidedly original and dainty.

This is on account of the high exchange rate on Canadian mon- ey in New York, where the Ontario Hydro Commission seems to owe a lot of •money. The local commission • seems to havcc-surplus which takese p care of this extra drain for the tiro being but if the exchange rate con`, tinues no doubt we shall have to in- crease rates as others have done Goderieh is protesting - to the Pro- vincial Commission against the in- crease, suggesting that the exchange be paid out of the contingency fund. If we could manage to get along without borrowing from New Yorle we should be that much better off.
