HIGHWAY INN TO BE FINISHED JULY 10 King's Arms With Accom- modation for 65, to Cost About $35,000 (By Staff Whitby, May 15.--The King's Arms, local unit of a chain of high- way inns being established from Welland to Whitby, will be built by July 10, according to a statement made by S. H. Moore, director of the Brock Securities Co., at a pub- lic meeting held in the counefl chambers last night under the joint auspices of the town council and the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Moore pointed out that The King's Arms would cost approximately $35,000 before it was complete and would inclule a large central building, with dining hall, a ser- vice station, several small cottages and spacious, well kept grounds. The total capitalization of the tea inns is $500,000. Mr. Moore add- ed that it was hoped by "the com- pany to ultimately extend the chain from coast to coast, In spite of the inclement weath- er, a number of citizens were pres- ent at the meeting and displayed considerable interest in the pro- ject. Mayor L. W. Dudley presid- ed as chairman and in his introduc- tory remarks mentioned that the English Inns would endeavor to in- troduce the hospitality and good accomodation which featured the inns of old England in the time of Dickens. He was certain that the establishment of & unit at Whitby would be wa , with interest 'lo cally and expressed the opinjon that its existence would give much favorable advertising to the town. The need of a chain of highway stopping-places of standard equip- ment and accomodation to care for the ever-increasing tourist trade was stressed by Mr. Moore. - He quoted figures to show that 3,600,- 000 cars crossed the 'border from United States into Canada last year and that over $200,000,000 was spent by tourists. A careful analy- sis of the business done by persons offering accomodation for tourists showed that in almost every case it was profitable. It was the aim of the company to first establish a chain of ten inns on the most heavily travelled .high- ways of Ontario. Each inn wouid have accomodation for 65 gu while it would also cater to th light lunch trade. The main build- ing would contain a large dining room, with big fireplace, while the separate cottages built in old Eng- lish fashion would each contain 2 comfortable bedrooms, fireplace and washroom, with all conveni- ences including hot and cold water. The grounds would be planned by a landscape gardener and would in- clude beautiful: flower beds, well a [trimmed grass plots and pleasant walks. Everything would be man- aged as in a first class hotel, he sald.

The corps turned out in good strength and presented a very smart &ppearance before the Ine specting officer in spite of the fact that the unusually wet weather this spring has prevented it from exten- sive drilling on the campus. A few minutes after the opening of the inspection a heavy rainstorm came up and it was necessary to. finish rifle drill and other exercises in the school gymnasium, This was Major Power's first visit to Whitby and he expressed satisfaction with the showing made by the cadets. Much of the credit for the good work of the corps must go to H, Case, mathematics master and cadet instructor, he said. The cadets number 68 at full strength including all ranks. The officers were as follows: Capt. Dou- glas Maundrell; Lieuts. Joseph Bas- com and George Scott; Senior Ser- geant, Charles Robertson.

YOUNG PEOPLE HOLD HARD TIME PARTY Pickering, May 15.--St. Paul's Sunday School looked more like a hobo's paradise than a gathering place for ordinary folk on Mon- day evening, upon the occasion of the Y.P.S. Hard-time party, when the Truhonchee group, winners of the efficiency contest was entertain- ed by the Wabagowanas Invincibles and Keewatins. In the midst of the festivities, the lights. went off for a few minutes, which added to the pervading atmosphere of. pov- erty. Besides a program of games, mu- sical and reading numbers were given by the Wabagowanas, and a mirth-provoking silent drama "The Supreme Sacrifice", in three strug- gles, which resembled strongly the old-fashioned melodrama of the screen, was presented by the Tru- The were laid in the wild and woolly west, and cen- tered around the rich young helr- ess, the daring cowgirl, cowboys, and villainous Indians.

Last year, immigration ques- tions were much to thé front, but this time very little, if any, refer- ence has been made to them. Conesrvative members, however, 'are preparing to take up the mat- ter. The immigration statistics show somewhat of an increase in the proportion of British to Contin- ental immigration, but the situa- tion is still regarded as being far from satisfactory and this aspect of the matter is certain to be ex- tensively ventilated. a.
