"‘The fans and autographâ€"hunters strained at the ropes were googleâ€"eyed to see Mrs, Andrew Carnegie step from her oldâ€"fashioned limousine into the glare of the Klieg lights! "They say Mrs. Carnegie never goes anywhere â€" but here she was to see "Fantasia"! "Betsy Cushing Roosevelt, the former Mrs. James Roosevelt, was there with a party which included "Jock" Whitney, and Mr. and Mrs. James Young. Mr. Young is director of the Bureau of Forâ€" eign and Domestic Commerce in Washâ€" ington. f "You‘d have had a chance, too,to rub elbows with Mrs. Paul Pennoyer daughâ€" ter of J. P. Morgan. She wore a blue velvet evening (outfit and the severest hair comb‘ in the theatre. "Walt Disney arrived with Mrs. Walt, and at once bought three copies of a program he must know pretty well by now. But the pnroceeds went to British War Relief, so Walt knew what he was doing. Every one agreed also that he knew what he was doing when he dreamed "Fantasia‘"‘ into being for the pure pleasure and delight of the world. Stokowski Overwhelmed Leopold Stokowski, who conducts the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra as his part in the creation of "Fantasia," made a auiet entrance. But at the first intermission he blocked traffic in the aisles like a fiveâ€"alarm fire. In white tie and tails, the maestro was surroundâ€" ed by lovely ladies using such adjectives as "entrancing," swooning," "ecstacy‘". "Almost late was Mrs. Frederic N. Watriss, the mother of the highlyâ€"glaâ€" morized Brenda Frazier. Mrs. Byron Foy wore her chinchilla cape right through the rain into the, theatre. That‘s the kind of night it was, folks!

As is her usual custom, Mrs Vanâ€" derbilt wore black, and elbowâ€"length white kid gloves.

"I‘ve just returned from Fantasia and I‘m still delightfully Disney," said Benn. Get it? He went cn, "I‘m so chockâ€"full of brand new sights and sounds, T feel like a kid who hasw been to a theatre for the first time." ‘"Well, this here blitzeroo, ‘"Fantasia," is due to strike in our vicinity before long, and society is preparing to welâ€" come it with the first night fervor of New York. Many affairs are being planned, including dinner at the hotels in private homes, and balls after the opening performances.

WOODSWORTH WILLIAM BENDIX KENT TAYLOR Frances LA NGFORD in * Mississippi Gambler " Goldfields * Brooklyn Orchid " Starting Saturday Hopalong CASSIDY 2nd Ace Attraction Kirkland Lake, June 30 â€" The creaâ€" tion of a Retail Merchants‘ Association for Northern Ontario and Northwestâ€" ern Quebec was approved unanimously at the Merchants‘ Day business session held in the Township Hall, Wednesday afternoon. Fifty merchants from Timmins, Rouâ€" yn, Noranda and Kirkland Lake took part in the discussions and it was early decided that a central body be formed to deal with the nroblems of retailers throughout Northern Ontario and Norâ€" thwestern Quebec. ‘ Meeting of Merchants of North Last Week at Kirkâ€" An extensionâ€" agenda dealing with store holidays, closing hours, gasoline and tire rationing, credit relations, and other matters of interest to retailers had been prepared but shortly after the first item, store holidays, was preâ€" sented to the gathering, D. B. Curtis, Timmins, held that a central executive shculd be formed and that this body deal with matters at issue as they afâ€" fected retailers generally, while purely local matters, such as store closing hours, should be handled by the local associations. Carter Favors Idea Reeve R. J. Carter, Teck Township, favored the suggestion of a central reâ€" tailers organization. He believed that recommendations made for such a body would be well received by Provincial and Federal authorities as carrying much weight since it would be repreâ€" sentative of a large and influential group cf northern businessmen. W. A. C. White, Secretary of the Rouynâ€"Noranda Businessmen‘s Associaâ€" tion, agreed that a central organization would be worth while but expressed the opinion that first of all local retailers associations should be placed on a firm ting before the formation of a cenâ€" tral boedy be considered. Much Discussion Considerable discussion relative to the crganization of the central body ensued in which . P. H. Laporte, L. Lalonde, Councillor J. W. Spooner, Timmins, Mr. J.‘ Barnheart, Mr. White, Rouynâ€" Noranda took an active part. On motion of J. B. Bruce, Kirkland Lake, seconded by W. A.~C. White, Noranda, it was deâ€" cided that the central organization, reâ€" presentatives of all centres in Northern Ontario and Northwestern Quebec be formed, and that an invitation be tenâ€" dered all centres not represented at the meeting, to name representatives to the central executive. It was proposed that a tentative orâ€" ganization, a president and secretary be elected forthwith but it was finally agreed that each Retailers‘ Association, at a local meeting, should name three representatives to the central body. It was further decided that the president and secretary of the Kirkland Lake Retail Merchant‘s Association follow the matter un and call a meeting of all representatives named," at the earliest opportunity, for the purpose of electâ€" ing officers for the newly formed Retail Merchant‘s‘ Association for Norâ€" thern Ontario and Northwestern Queâ€" bec. It was furtherâ€" decided that the names of all representatives should be forwarded to the Kirkland Lake secretâ€" ary by July 15 at the latest. It was agreed that Merchants Day as inaugurated by the Kirkland Lake Reâ€" tail Merchants‘ Association, should be continued and that the locale for next years meeting be decided by the central crganization.
