The day of the meeting has been changed back to the second Thursday. splinters. I never saw the guns in fldye Park in action but one night I did see the searchlights there aweep- r*g their white fingers across the sky. At the northeast corner of Hyde Park, where Park Lane joins Oxford street in the awankiest pert of the city, is the Marlble Arch. I dont know what it commemorates, but it's a famous landmark. In the part of the park neanby, there's an open space backed up by masses of trees. It is there that the famous Hyde Park or- ators hold forth. I saw them one Sunday afternoon Each one had a crowd around. They didn't stand on soap boxes, but each had some special arrangement atbove the crowd, usually a step ladder with one wide step to stand on and a broat top to make a desk or pulpit. They were preaching all kinds of odd doc trines. There was generally a 'brigh banner hung on the front of the step ladder, with the man's name: "John So-and-So, Christian Anarchist," oi something of that kind. Some o them were quite fluent in a loud mouthed way. Most of the listener? did not seem to foe interested, but rather roamed from one group to an. other as I did. Westminster Abbey Disappoints There were a few things I saw In London which disappointed me and Westminster Abbey was one of them. [Mint's strungf. Perhaps it was be- cause part of the Ibig church was shut it)', possibly from bomb damage, al- though none is apparent in the front portion. There is no doubt that the Abbey is a great national shrine, but I found it all cluttered up with ugly statuary and memories of several centuries ago Evidently, the older generations were not so particular about the qualifications of those who were buried in the Abbey, and it may be that tastes in statuary change. I appreciated the tomb of he unknown soldier, but felt that one in every century, Westminster Abbey might be better if a general housecleaning took away some of the old-timers. That may be heresy, but I've Driven my im- pressions frankly throughout this series, so won't stoip ow. Outside the Abbey, a soldier stvod on guard in front of the door leading to the ancient cloister. My Irish-Can- adian guide of that day talked the soldier into letting us inside, because we were Canadians. These ancient cloisters, plain and simple, with the memorials dead long centuries ago, seemed much more beautiful than the interior of the cathedral itself.

Your Kind Co-Operation^ Please In order to save our cream patrons embarrassment, we feel it our duty to explain the new government ''cream can" regulations of which the dead line is July 2nd. The regulations concerning the pro- ducer are :- 1. After July 2nd no one may have in his posses- sion cream cans unless they are used for cream only. 2. A producer may not send or deliver cream to any creamery except in a cream can belonging to that creamery.
