Articial ice is, of course, used. , The description of the plant, as given [in the programme, shows an area of 11,000 square feet, 170 feet long by 70 feet wide, with 12 miles of pipe installed. This length of pipe is div- ided into 300 units, each gander per- fect control of the engineer. Three large refrigerating machines of 100 tons capacity and requiring 165 horse.-power to operate freeze the ice. The 12 miles of pipe are as one piece, being welded together in perfect alignment and weighing over 60 tons. A large tank of 22,000 gallons cap- acity for the storage of 15 degrees Fahrenheit brine is connected to the rink by hugecentrifugal pumps which force the brine through the 73,360 feet of pipe. The brine tank also contains 10,000 feet of coiled pipe which is directly supplied with one ton of liquid ammonia, carrying the heat units outside the building into the water cooling tower, a specially constructed contriv-ance which com- pletely absorbs the heat units. pt1'l;r'<:'oT)-rs u , 7 almond. us: run nommon rnoiInmouL / PRESEITEDIJRAMATIG name CHAU1*X1@i"AssuREn ' .

This en- terprise iscertainly something. new in Sunny California. It would be in- teresting of itself, but is of specia` interest to people in Barrie owing to the fact that the promoter is a native of this town--Norman E. Metcalf. son of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Metcalf.

Rev. Ben. H. Spence, Domin- ion Secretary of the Prohibition Un- ion, A. E.

E. Wright, M.P.P., in voting with the Government for 4.4 beer, and `asking Mr. Wright to attend this meeting and explain his position. Mr.` Ganley also read Mr. Wright's reply in which the local member stated that previous arrangements made it impossible for him to be present. He explained that his vote was given conscientiously in what he believed to be the best inter- ests of temperance and he predicted that before long the majority of those who today "condemn the amendment will approve of it.

He read a letter from Mr. Spence asking him to introduce a bill in the Federal House calling for the total prohib- ition of the manufacture, importa- tion, exportation, inter-provincial shipment and sale of liquor, in reply to which the member questioned the wisdom of taking such advanced ground under existing conditions. He pointed out that several provinces had repealed their prohibitory laws and suggested that it would be wis- dom on the part of the prohibition workers to bend their efforts towards regaining lost ground before calling for Federal action. To himself, Mr. McDonald acknowledged the Value of. the dry vote and hoped that`-"Spence would not think he was side-stepping the issue. * lat e ience, who greatly enjoyed way in wich the case was presented and at times applauded loudly irwtheir ap- preciation of' the points advanced by the various speakers. In addition to his part in the debate, Mr. McDonald gave two solos and a monologue which were much appreciated by the audience.

Sparks of the Salva- tion Army. _ Q-1 vvvov.n -s Scene` three found Mr. Spence with the replies of Mr. Smith and Mr. Mc- Donald. In disgust .he exclaimed, What this country needs is states- men who are anxious to do something not politicians looking for a way out. He wired both members ask- ing them to meet him in Barrie.

They went into the living- room, which is o the kitchen, and after a time Lahay came` "in and brought two drinks of whiskey which he had poured from a bottle in the ` kitchen.
