On Thursday, July 24th, Bailey William Simpkins, a highly respected resident of Elginburg, was called by death, after an fliness of two weeks. The deceased who was seventy-nine years of age, spent the last ten years at Elginburg, before that being a resident of Wilmur, Ont. In religion he was a Methodist. He leaves his widow, two daughters and four sons. The daughters are Mrs. George Smith Cataraqui, and Mrs. Walter McFad- den, Elginburg. The sons are Chaun- cey, living at home; Bert, Elginburg; Stanley," Grand Rapids, Mich, and Herbert, Utica, N.Y.

"Our Lady of the Snows" --- but with not too emphatic an accent on the snow, please, Such is the first impression one gathers from a visit to the Canadian pavilion at the empire exhibition at Wembley, Lon- don. Others come crowding fast-- of the achievements of the present, as portrayed in the picture of Can- ada,.as it is; and of its faith in the future, as fllustrated by the panora- ma of Vancouver as it will be 20 years hence. One observes how the snow, ex- cept for scenic purposes, has not re- ceived emphasis; how sunshine ef- fects have been skillfully introduc- ed into vignettes, which give gracious glimpses of fall; and how the dominion's mag- nificent water-power, only 7 per cent. of which ft yet harnessed, receives due recognition. The tepee of the Indian, the sleds and snowshoes of | the frozen North are not in the pie- | ture, any more than the wurlies of the disappearing aborigine or the faintest suspicion of drought are to Canada has given as fine an summer and | Peers bette ty be seen in the Australian pavilion. | g dominion. A moving panorama of scenic wonders revolves as ma- Jestically as the procession of the equinoxes, and for the moment one loses sight of crop prospects. But stay--here again is the jocund globe itself, accomplished by the painted inquiry "Why not own a farm in Canada?' Why not, indeed? The Canadian Pacific railway building is vibrant with the rattle of a4 model train which passes round its entire circumference. One gazes again at farms, fishing and sporting resorts, harbors and cities, with all the machinery of modern transport --"shuttles of an empire's loom's" Vancouver stretches to the horizon, d Quebec crowns its hill. There is such artistry as this in the Australian section, which demon- strates that Saturday's child must work for his living, but makes per- haps a simpler and more direct ap- peal to the plain husbandman.

The Australlan exhibi- | tion 'is more spacious, but Canada offers evidence of more lavish ex- penditure. The cold gray and white of the ceiling of its pavilion give a chiller light than the effect of sun- shine secured in the Australian sec- tion by the employment of white and primrose yellow. Each display has its salfent merits, Perhaps, for sheer artistry, Canada is in the lead; but for a direct appeal to the home-making instinct, Australia can- not be eclipsed. Stand back and look. "Daughter I.am in my mother's house, but mistress in my own." And a magni- ficent house it is -- a vast, cream colored colonnaded palace whereto there lead a pair of majestic flights of steps at eifher end, guarded by bronze lions huge as dragons of the prime. On the flanks of the main pavilion there stand those of the Canadian National railways and the Canadian Pacific railway. One of the entrance halls is "em- bellishéd"" (the word jumps to one's lips) with pictures of portentous Canadian statesmen, But they are forgotten in the first sight of the dis- play of Canada's lavish mineral wealth. Lofty glass museum-like cases set forth trophies of coal and shale. \ Canada 's out for the trade---but it is more of an artist than a com- mereial traveller in the avowal. Jt camouflages fits showcases wit beautiful scenery. Case after case there certainly is -- each a "silent salesman," but the eye can always turns to the wonderful pamoramiec background. There are trophies and monuments and pyramids of bis- cuits, canned milk and beef, bacon, fruit and jam, testifying to Canada's excellent appetite fostered by hard work and sport. Canada has more than enough for its own larder, and is willing to feed the. northern hemisphere. It o's marshalled the products of its industry in parade state. There are sporting goods, rubber products, shoes, cutting tools, motor cars, carpets, tinned salmon and salmod in the nude, both Chinook and Sockeye; poultry, eggs and all the products of the dairy farm, in- cluding a remarkable representation in solid butter of the ranch of the Prince of Wales, with prince and saddle hack complete. There is wool (so Canada does grow wool, admits the surprised Australian.) There are orchards and wheat fields and farms. There is a house of timber, joined and fitted as if it were cabinet-work, beside which the Australian sgettler's bush' hut of weather-board and galvanized iron, or even slabs and bark, looks rough and ready. A sturdy Canadian log hut would be a fairer comparison. But enough of cataloguing. Suppose we approach the other entrance to the pavilion. This also is "embellished" --with velvet-hung royal portraits. They do this sort of thing better at the academy, where people expect it of them. But the portraiture is for- gotten in the unequaled series of scenic panoramas which fill the eye and capture the imagination: St. John's Harbor, with tiers of crowd- ed bales and argosies of purple sails and many more accessbries than Tennyson ever particularized; Jasper National Park in the North- ern RocXles, with its pine-clad moun- tains; stretches of corn-land with grain-elevators and moving trains -- a spacious and proud demesne. Here is Niagara pictured to scale-<but no brush can' picture Niagara. There is an experimental farm scene which Australia could reproduce, but which any Australian would covet. The trophies of game on the walls would gladden the heart of Nimrod Upstairs one finds a volatile and informative moving picture show, with cyclopedic lecturers. No human being could hope to ab sorb at once the display of the their 22,663 miles rafllway carriages; but imagination boggles at the number of trains re- quired to cover the vast track por- trayed, with ganglia of coruscations, by means of illuminated perfora- tons stretching across a map of he CHICAGO MURDER CASE Chicago, July .26.--Upon a pair of horn-rimmed glasses, dropped by Nathan Leopold, jr., when he and Richard Loeb stuffed the body of Robert Franks into railroad culvert May 21st, centred interest in to- day's session of judicial hearing which is to determine their punish. ment. It was these spectacles that gave Investigators their first tan- gible clue to the {dentity of the slayers. The state arranged for de- tectives and eye specialists who traced the spectacles to their owner, to testify today, and expected to complete final testimony against the youths before adjournment, planning to read confessions Monday and fin- ish the prosecution's case on Tues- day.

He Was a Respected Farmer at Perth Road, Perth Road, July 22.--The re- mains of the late William Peters were brought home from the King- ston General Hospital on Thursday afternoon. The deceased succumbed to heart failure at the age of sixty- nine years. Mr. Peters spent the greater part of his life as a farmer at Perth Road and held the respect of everyone. Besides his widow he leaves one daughter, Mrs. James Hunt, Kingston, and two sons, Frank, Hamilton, and Charles, King- ston. Rev. Mr. England, Inverary Methodist church, in the absence of Rev.
