HARMONY SINGING DE FOREST RADIOPHONE To The Editor of The Mirror: Dear Sir: On account of a few misunderstandings and some criticism in connection with the building of the new Arena, I have, on the request of the Directorate, been forced to seek a little of your valuable space. Every one realizes that Stratford needs a new Arena, needs it badly and needs it now, The citizens are in favor of it and will support it financially. Stratford wants this new structure in time for the Old Boys and Girls Reunion, The Classic City Arena Company, Limited have received their but there was no thought of sur- for his Were wife. j After leaving the court the law : } Feito' Te became auhoat fa?

It was also decided that Stratford people, as far as possible, would be employed and empowered to do this work. On behalf of the Directors, who at a minimum cost, have obtained such a beautiful lot of approximately two acres on our water-front and with the assured knowledge that a building will be built thereon and completed before August, surely it is only | . fair that I ask that the co-operation of all the citizens be i ' secured at once in order that the project can be started immed- I iately and contracts let. i bees It 1s the desire of the Directorate that the Classic City ' Maybe he was right and so was the judge for to live with his first wife when she knew that she was Second Lords Roberts and Kitchener com- pelled the Boers and Free Staters | not the only pebble ot) the, beach Fick up fog Seaton to withdraw.
