The fur- nace was erected about half a mile south . of Lyndhurst, on property which is now owned by F. W. Bre- see. In a week or two the Dominion Government is to be approached and asked to place a tablet on the site. Because of e mini activities which went on in the vicinity, and be- cause of the smelter, Lyndhurst was formerly known as "Furnace Falls." --_-- TOURIST TRAFFIC HEAVY The tourist traffic in Gananoque is the heaviest in the history of the town. ring the early part of July it was lighter than last year, but the past weeks have witnessed a remark- able change .

DEMAND INCREASE Kingston dairies yesterday refused to accede to demands made by the Kingston District Milk Producers' Association for an increase in the price paid for milk, The producers are now being paid $1.60 a hundred- weight, and want $2, beginning Aug. 1. They will cease supplying milk and sell to the cheese factories, which at present are paying up to $1.75. H. F. Price, head of the lar- gest retail dairy, states that the dair- ies have a verbal agreement with the producers to pay $1.60 until the first of October, but if the producers de- cide to break that agreement the dairies will not suffer, as arrange- ments have been made for a full supply of milk from other places, PRINCESS LOVES GIRL GUIDE WORK Royal President of Guides of British Empire is Friend to All : London. July 30--Princess Mary Vicountess Lascelles, who attended recently a rally of nearly 2,000 Wiltshire Girl Guides at Bowood Park, the beautiful seat of the Marquis of Lansdown, has, since she was first enrolled, taken very seriously her position as a Guide and as president of the Girl Guides of the British Empire, Although Guiding has spread to go many countries of the world, no other Royalties have lent it such sympathy and encouragement as have thoseof Great Britain, it was pointed out in a London exchange, Princess Juliana takes a warm in- terest in the Guides, who provided a special guard of honor for her at her recent coming of age. In Swed- en the Crown Princess is patroness of the movement, and the Hunga- rian Guides find a keen president in the Archduchess Anna. But Bri- tish Royalties are actual workers and office-holders in the movement, Princess Louise is patroness of the association, and the Duchess of York and Princess Arthur of Con- naught are nation vice-presidents. Princess Alice, Countess of Ath- lone, is president of the movement in South Africa, and her daughter, Lady Mary Cambridge, is president of Lone Guides there, No one, however, is so keen as Princess Mary. To her generosity is largely due the success of the wonderful Hampshire Home of Guiding, Foxlease Park, which was opened in 1922 as a training centre for Guide officers. When at Foxlease as a visitor to the Imperial Camp the Princess entered fully into its daily routine, The Princess--or '"H.R.H.," as the Guides affectionately call her-- has been no "figure-head'" presi- dent, From the time of her first interest in Guiding in 1917, when she was tended lectures All Guides who have seen the Princess at a Rally or other fune- tions have unforgettable memories of her--of the erect figure, so graceful in its dark uniform, which is crossed by the president's cords of gold, silver, and purple; of the fair skin and golden hair beneath the blue hat with its purple cock: ade. But, above all, of the Prin- ess' true "Guide smile," the greet- foe of affection which tells even the most distant Guides that here, in the daughter of their King, 1s oneoft hemselves, "a friend to all and a sister to every other Guide."

London, July 31.--The first step in & new system of beginning par- liamentary sessions will be taken next Friday when the current ses- sion will be ended by ° tion, thus paving the way for holding the general elections next May. Until this decision was taken parliamentary sessions were begun each year in February, were in- terrupted in August by a three- months' adjournment and were ended with the King's prorogation speech a few days before Christmas. Future sessions of Parliament will begin in October or Novem- ber, according to the pressure of business to be done, adjourn over the Christmas holidays, and be terminated by the King in July Next Friday, instead of Parlia- ment adjourning according to tne long-established custom until Au- tumn, the King will make his usual February prorogation speech since the royal prorogation disposes of all uncompleted business, many minor bills will die automatically, In October or November the new sessions will be opened by the King with all the ceremony hith- erto connected with lausching the session in February. It is expeci- ed, however, that the new session instead of terminating in July, as it would normally under the mew arrangement, will be closed in May when it is assumed the next general election will be held. The political' parties are planning to begin the platform campaigns in October. The last few days of the present session will be devoted to a dis- cussion of the Kellogg pact and the report of the Imperial Wireless and Cable Conference, The principal business of the Autumn session will be the passage of a Govern- ment bill for tax relief and ap- proval of the budget, OFFER MEDALS TO ONTARIO TEACHERS Quebec Departments Do. nate Prize for Progress in French Quebec, July 31.--Two medals have been offered for competition among the Ontario teachers who have come to Quebec to learn French, the medals to be awarded to the two who show the greatest progress during the course of the four weeks that they will he here. One of the medals is the gift of the Department of Foreign Af- fairs, while the other has heen given by the Quehec Department of Public Instruction, The teachers have arrived In Quebec for their course at the Sillery Convent, and were officially welcomed here by Hon. Cyrille De- lage, superintendent of public in- struction for the province. There were 60 assembled in the convent when Mr, Delage arrived with F. C. A. Jeanneret, of Toronto, to whom he handed the medals, to remain in his custody until after the four weeks' course is completed, Mr. Jeanneter stated that the gift of the medals would further help cement the good .relations ex- isting between the two provinces. and would be an additional symbol of the bonne entente between the people of Quebec and Ontario. SIR VINCENT MEREDITH PROGRESSING FAVORABLY Montreal, July 31--Sir Vincent Meredith, Bart, chairman of the Board of Directors of the Bank of Montreal, who has been ill for several weeks at his home, and under the care of Dr. W. F. Hamiiton, was re- ported to be progressing favorably today. He had a comfortable day, according to his physician. TIRED, WEAK, NERVOUS WOMAN THOMPSON'S 49 Simooe St S,2We Deliver ON KELLOGG PACT Rome, July 31.--The old adage that a "man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still" is mot &ntirely applicable as re- gards Italy's decision to sign the Kellogg Anti-War Pact, it all the indications that have cropped up intermittenly 'since Premier Mus- solini gave his affirmative reply mean anything. As has been stated in previous dispatches, the popular attitude in this country as reflected in the Fas- cist press has never been clear cut in accepting the general ideas un- derlying the Kellogg proposal. During the early stages of the negotiations betweqn the United States and France, editorial writers here had already taken a hostile attitude and there was an impres- sion that every effort was being made to charm away the possibil- ity that Italy would ever be dir- ectly concerned in it. There was visible a certain dread of ever hav- ing to face such a situation even before it ever seemed likely to pre- sent itself, Then there followed a period of absolute silence, which began with the presentation of Secretary Kel- logg's first note to the various powers sounding them out concern- ing the idea of a multi-lateral pact. During that period Henry P, Fletcher, American Ambassador, was doing his missionary work, which finally led to Mussolini's laconic expression of willingness to sign the pact. There is no disposition on the part of observers here to minimize the importance of this final prac- tical outcome to the lengthy mnego- tiations. That Italy was finally induced to give solemn approval to the idea of outlawing war was in itself an event of great importance, whatever might have been the ex- pressions of the popular attitude. But it is also significant that the news itself of the premier's afirmative reply was given a vury inconspicuous position in the Italian Press. ' Various Opinions Then, contrary to the habits of editorial writers in the face of events, which are considered im- portant, there was not one expres- sion of editorial opinion for several subsequent days, Finally, how- ever, during the past few days, there have begun to appear vari- ous expressions of opinions both in the Fascist editorial columns and in conversations with repre- sentative Italians. In none of these expressions has | Layer Felt Mattresses at a big savings. All izes in stock. $12.95 | in fine Art Ticking.
