"It was so new end different, Stage acting is one long sustained effort," he explained. | "This is all done in little cameos of work. I love it," In addition to Sir John Martin-Harvey, many of the stage actors long connected with him and familiar to Kingston audiences will be recognized in leading parts on the screen. Great care was taken in filming the story. "The Only Way" is recommended by competert eri- tics and photoplay experts to the attention of the picture goer. It will be shown at the Capitol theatre for three days, starting today. HEARD ON THE STREET Local Briefs Gathered by Re- porters--What the Merch= ants Are Offering. Rev. John V.

This 'meeting was largely attended by both clergy and the lay members of the church. The business transacted was chiefly of a routine nature. = A notable feature of the meeting was Rev. Dr. W. 8. MacTavish's re- port which he gave at the recent As- sembly at Montreal. Dr. McTavish stated that most astonishing progress had been made in every department of the church and a most outstanding feature was the fact that the church had increas- ed in its membership by over 50,000 in last yeat in Canada. The largest previously reported membership be- ing 20,000. This gratifying report was well received by the assembly. *, . MISS LOUISE Beauty Parlor At Elliott's Barber Shop 856 Princess Street.

H. Edwards. He was assist- ant manager to Mr. Edwards and lat- en to the present manager, E. 0. Smithies. Mr. Dodge was later ap- pointed manager of the Strand Thea- tre, and had charge of that house, under the supervision of the resident manager, Mr. Smithies, for some time. When the Strand Theatre was closed, Mr. Dodge resumed his posit tion at the Capitol again. Since he has been in Kingston, Mr. Dodge has made many friends by his pleasant and amiable disposition. His courtesy to patrons at the theatre was marked and he was held in high re- gard by those who had dealings with him. The successor to Mr. Dodge as as- sistant manager of the local theatre will be H. A. Halloway, of Belleville. Mr. Halloway is known to the sport- ing world as "Bouncer," and: was very prominent in hotkey circles, playing defence for the Belleville team and later for Brockville in the intermediate O.H.A. series. Mr. Hal- loway has been in Kingston for some time and is quite well known here. While he has not had previous experi- ence in theatre work, it is expected that Mr, Halloway will make good at his new position. He is a brother of "Toots" Halloway, well known pro- fessional hockey player, who start- ed with the Toronto St. Pats and lat- er with Montreal Maroons, in the Na. tional Hockey League. SEA CADET CAMP | Hy 9 The Sea Cadet Camp is a decided success. The boys are all having a good ' time, receiving useful! instrue- tion under proper supervisors. Lieut. Frank Joyce, Chief Instructor of To- ronto Sea Cadet Corps is in charge of all training. ' The training in- cludes squadron drill, with and with- out arms, physical training, boat work, band practice and other sea- manghip in' general. Supervisor Ars thur Raven also instructs che corps in First Ald. A novel feature of the comp is that Reveille is sounded in the morn» ing by the entire band, eighteen bugles and six drums. There Is no doubt about this waking the boys from their slumbers. All the training is carried out in the morning, so that the afternoons are free for games and sports. The boys are practising for Field Day, which is to be held | Wednesday, July 14th. The parents will be glad to hear tNat there has been no sickness or accidents in the camp. All the hoys are pleased with the camp life. The work of the cook has been 'a revelation to the boys and they have received some won- derful meals. : Late John Weir.

Canada's favorable trade balance amounted to $401,134,405, an increase over the previous year of $116,705,299. Only on one other occasion was the Do- minion's favorable balance as large as in 1926, viz, the war years, 1918, when it amounted to $662,637,214. At the end of March, 1928, the favorable trade balance was almost entirely with the British Empire, the amount for the Empire being $392,- 621,842 and for foreign countries only $8,502,563.

On the average during the fiscal year 1926, the Canadian dollar was practically on a parity with the United States dollar, Canada's foreign trade was extre- mely active during the fiscal yead ended March 31st, 1926, reflecting a genéral improvement in the economic condition of the Dominion. While im- ports were less in value than for the "peak" year, 1921, exports were greater, being exceeded in only one year in the history of the Dominion 1918. | STOCK MARKETS. er (Reported by Johnston & Ward, corner King and Clarence Streets, members of the Montreal and Toronto Stock Excharges). ---- New York.
