Sibbons. commander of the "Duchess of Bedford?' p ROOF that the St. Lawrence route is rapidly in- creasing in popularity and that an era of eon - tinned prosperity is predicted`for her ports, is shown by the addition of four new cabin class liners bf the mew "Duchess" type to the Atlantic fleet of the .Canadian Pacific. The Duchess .of Bedford, leader of this quartette of the largest liners to Montreal, arrived in that port at 8.45 p.m. June 8th, having completed her maiden voyage in exactly seven days after leaving Liverpool. The liner is over 20,000 tons gross register, is oil burning, two -funnelled, and measures 60.0 feet in length, and I5 feet in width. She will carry Cabin' Class, Tourist Third' Cabin, and Third Class passen- gers. In each class broad deck space is available, and accommodation is far superior to more expensive quarters on Atlantic liners of not long ago. The three sister ships of the Duchess of Bedford, now under construction in the shipbuilding yards of the Clyde, are the Duchess of Atholl, Duchess of Cornwall, and Duchess of Richmond. The discoveries of radio engineers 'have aided in snaking the Duchess of Bedford an outstanding mar- ine personality. For instance, while the ehip's, orchestra is playing in the 'Cabin 'Dining Room the music is relayed by means of microphones and am-, plifiers to the Tourist Third 'Cabin and Third Class Lounges and decks. Loud -speakers also simplify the, transmission of orders to the forecastle, crow's nest, and docking -bridge. Other interesting facts about the construction of the Duchess of Bedford are that the twin propellers' weigh 16% 'tons each, and the 186 foot steel shafts; connecting them with the powerful turbine engines weigh about 108 tons. Nearly two million rivets were used in the Ship, totalling '1;000 tons in themselves, i some of the plates having as many as 650 rivets each, 'The •advent of the "Duchesses" greatly increases the passenger and freight services maintained by the 'Canadian Pacific on the 'St. Lawrence route. The schedule of passenger sailings had already been in- i creased this summer by speeding the "turn about" of t the Empresses from a four -weekly basis to meet the 'expected expansion of traffic. The "Beaver" class of l ships, newcomers to the St. Lawrence also, have been' placed 'by the Canadian Pacific' 'on an exclusively freight •service. They run 'regularly. between Montreal 1 and -Londorn and continental ports, making almost as 1 ,good time .ae the ,passenger diner . W. Sangster of Listowel.and several .others spoke, The ringing of the school bell an- nonnced 'that supper was ready and over 400 sat' down to a bountifully prepared picnic supper. Following thtis, a splendid program of musical ,selections, .readings, solos, eta, was giveim To A. Doig and Miss Harris .and. the committee in charge of the re- union goes a great amount of credit. .13E -UNION :OF B.RADEN FAM- ILIES IS T-WFLD Ou ixionday, July 2, an unique and pleasant event took place in Ford wich when the descendants of the late Henry Braden. together with tIaemi families, met in the Agricultural Park ant rink in the form of a farri- ily re -union.

LICENSE PROPOSED FOR THOSE WHO FISH One of the duties of the special committee under Hon, Finlay Mac- diarmid which is toinvestigate the fish and, game resources of the Pro- vince will be, it is understood, to. sound out public opinion on the mat- ter of a $i fishing license for all resi- dent Ontario anglers. The Department of Game and Fish- cries would like, it is said, to establish this license fee, but has made no move to date in view of the strong opposi- tion to the fee which was voiced by members of the Fish and Game Com- mittee at the last session of the Legis- lature. The Macdiard+nid committee will endeavour, it is said, not only to sound public opinion, but to direct it down the channel the Government has in mind. An angling fee for resi- dents would, it is argued, aid greatly in game and; fish conservation.. Recommendation of the $isee by the special committee would likely mean its operation in 5929. • POLITICIAN GOT TOO ROUGH P. G. Saunders; a candidate on the Democratic ticket in Texas lost the convention for pulling off some jokes the ladies thought too rough. Mr. Sanders in telling how times had Chartggd cited the following examp- les: "It used to be that friends dropp- ed in for a call, but now they Call in fora drop. It used to be that ladies showed the styles, now the styles show the ladies. It used to be that skirts barely hid the insteps, now they I barely hide the step-ins." Here the 'women delegates called a halt and de- , mantled an apology. The Texan , re- fused and lost the convention. Moral yuu find it.
