Hon. Stanley Baldwin, the British Premier, took a short course in engine driving at Pickering, Ontario, on the new Canadian National locomotive, number 6120, the largest and most powerful railway engine in the British Empire. Mr. Baldwin, when visiting Kingston, Ont‘, heard that this titan of the steel rails was an allâ€"Canadian product, designed by Canadian National Railway engineers and built at the Kingston shops. Farly on Saturday morning No. 6120 was attached to the Royal Train to haul it into Toronto to mark the opening of the new Union Station. Mr. Baldwin, although busily engaged in the preparation of his speeches, halted in his work to make an inspecâ€" tion of the engine, eventually climbing into the cab with the engineer. He showed the keenest inâ€" terest in the manner in which the big locomotive_‘was handled when travelling at high speed, and worked the various levers controlling the "It is a wonderful piece of machinery and should be a source of pride to the Canadian designers and builders,"‘ said the Premier on leaving the locoâ€" motive. No. 6120 is one of forty engines of similar type that are being turned out this season for the fast passenger and freight services of the National System. When in regular service they will run 510 miles without changeâ€"the longest locomotive runs in the Dominion.

The remains were taken on the noon train Monday to the east, the burial and funeral services to be held at Portage de Fort, where interment will be made. The late Mrs. Toner was born in the city of Cork, Ireland, in 1841, and came to live with her sonâ€"inâ€"law and girl. She was educated at what is now the city of Ottawa, but was then known as Byâ€"town. In 1865 she marâ€" ried the late CGapt. Philip Toner, and later took up residence at Portage de Fort, Pontiac county, Quebec. _ On the death of her husband in 1914 she came to lie with her sonâ€"inâ€"law and her daughter, Mr, and Mrs, H. Jefâ€" frey, and had made her home there ever since. Four daughters are left to mourn her loss:â€"Mrs. Jeffrey. Timmins; Mrs. E. Davis, Fort Couâ€" longe; Mrs. J. M. MacDonald, Sand Point; and Miss K. Toner, of Timâ€" mins. WA NT E D The late Mrs. Toner was well known and highly estemmed in the district where she had been a valued resident since 1914. During her residence of thirteen years in Timmins and district she made innumerable friends, all of whom will deeply regret her death, and extend sympathy to the hbereaved family. The death took place on Sunday morning, Aug. 7Tth, at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. H. Jeffrey, of Mrs. Ellen Toner, widow of the late Capti. Philip Toner, aged 86 years.

The Smart Sweater Costume Has Wide Appeal From the severity of sports sweaâ€" ters we turn with pleasure to the more feminine styles that have such a vogue this Summer. This sweater is of fine zephyr wool, hip length and belted. A collar and smart little bows of silk at the neck match the wool of the sweater as well as the colour of the belt. The skirt of blocks of wool crepe in two shades of tan stitched together and pleated, adds greatly to the sucâ€" cess of the costume. For some time past there has been an angle iron picket fence along the central public school property on Fourth avenue. This week work is in progress in erecting the iron fence along Pine street, north, and along the rest of the school property. The rain descending last night and toâ€"day may have dampened the ground, but it takes a lot of rain to dampen the enthusiasm of the regular golfer. _ Accordingly, play for the tournament was carried on toâ€"day as scheduled. 1.

One section remains to get its finishing touches before the highway will be completed to Poreuine. Construction gangs are still working north of Swastika and a twenty nule section remains unopen« ed to the public. Official cars have been over it, but surfacing is not comâ€" pleted.
