It is the time for travel, this warm agreeable weather of early summer, before the dust on the back-roads bdcomes a drawback, a hindrance to pleasant motoring. Sunny skies and gentle breezes combine to make conditions for the tourist superb and Canada, with its appeal from the forests, the farm, the 'village hamlet and fen" has just cause to claim first place among the other countries for summer touring, Reports received at the local Chamber of Commerce give the conditions of the highways be- tween Toronto and Peterboro as splendid, although a small number of detours have been established along the route Chief among these are at Harmony where two de- tours have been constructed around the highway due to washed out bridges which are now being re- placed. A further detour west of Cobourg is still in evidence. The road from Toronto to Osh- awa is clear, A smull stretch west of Pickering is not up to the stand- ard of the other section of high- way because of frost uprisings, but on the whole it is in excellent ¢on- dition.

The secretary of the local Hydro Come mission has stated that Hamilton. ians would save $50,000 on their light bills thereby. Possibly if it was generally rec ognized that daylight saving time is also money saving time there would be less trouble in securing u uniformity of adoption. And it is that lack of uniformity which is one of its chief inconveniences. CANON H. P. PLUMPTRE Who seconded a motion proposed before the Anglican synod in Toronto by Rev. J. E. Ward of St Stephen's church to legalize civil marriages in Ontario. Pro- ponents of the proposal explain that ending clerical monopoly of marriage would be helpful in the sense that it would obviate the necessity of persons irreligious- ly inclined having to go through a ceremony with which they do Prominent Men of Canada Favor Shopping Week One good description of the Empire Shopping Week in Canada Movement was received from a man in Western Canada who declared that for Can- ada the Empire begins with each per- son in Canada, moves on to his home, his business or other daily occupa- tion, his home town, -his Province, Canada and the Empire. The main Sanception is that anything that helps Canada, whether in social or busi- ness aspects, also helps to make Canada a stronger link in the chain of Empire. The Movement is fortunate in hav- ing the gracious consent of His Ex- cellency, Viscount Willingdon, 'Gov- ernor-General of Canada, to act as Patron. The Advisory Council also count themselves fortunate in having the Honourable James Malcolm, Min- ister of Trade and Commerce, as Honorary President. At its last meeting the Advisory Council, composed of the Presidents or other chief administrative officers of the following Associations: Na- tional Council of Women of Canada; Imperial Order Daughters of the Em- pire; Canadian Girl Guides' Associa- tion; Boy Scouts Association (Do- minion Council) ;" Canadian Legion of the British Empire Service League; Retail Merchants' Association of Canada; Canadian Chamber of Com- merce; "Trades and Labour Congress of Canada; Association of Canadian Advertisers, Inc.; British Agents' Association; Canadian Association of British Manufacturers; Canadian Manufacturers' Association ; and the High Commissioner for Great Bri- tain in Canada, together with the Chairman of the Executive Commits tee, the Honorary Treasurer and the Honorary Secretary, approved the policy that in addition to the many important cducational features of the Week, its purpose should be to stim- ulate. the purchase and sale of Empire produce and manufactures in Canada, focussing particularly on the week of 25th May to 1st June this year, Canada's products to be favoured first in purchases, then the products of other parts of the Empire. Benefit Last Year In 1928, the car loadings of Cana- dian nierchandise increased by 6,000,- 000 tons over 1927, and both imports from other parts of the Empire to Canada and exports of Canadian products to 'the rest of the Empire showed important increases, thus in- dicating that Canada and the rest of the Empire arc all benefitting from the Empire Shopping Weck Move- ment. Already this year Lieutenant-Gov- crnors and Premiers of various Pro- vinces have promised to speak at various functions associated with the movement, and the Departments of Education - stand ready to instruct the teaching profession oh the patri- otic and economic advantages of ithe work that is being carried on. All the organizations with divisions and branches throughout Canada, with hundreds of thousands of mem- bers from 'coast' to coast, and many other influential citizens, are con- cerned in an important way in mak- ing Enipire Shopping Weck activities in Canada assume a real place in the life of every community.

Toronto, RAnd, 1862 Barbara,' ANCIENT COINS Intended to Form Part of a Permanent Public Museum New York, N.Y., May 30.--A history of civilization, as written in the coins and money of all races and epochs, has been purchased by the Chase National Bank of New York for a permanent public ex- hibition. Farran Zerbe, former president of the American Numismatic As- sociation, spent 40 years of his life gathering the greatest variety {of ancient and modern currency in the world, The result of his labors is con- sidered a masterpiece of the col- Jector's art and a monument to patience. The Chase National Bank recently acquired the collec- tion. A special department houses the 43,000 pieces which tell in a thou- sand strange tongues the story of 5,000 years of the world's econom- ic growth. Everything from African spirit charms and the peach seed cur- rency of early California settlers to the latest, sparkling product of the United Statese mint is includ- ed. Commodity currencies from re- mote corners of the world form one division. Tea bricks from northern Asia, colored cloth, co- coa beans, pelts, gold dust, shells, wampum and woodpeckers' scalps are a few of the coins of past and present realms on display. There are several sharp breaks in the record of steady progress toward table, standardized curren- cies, notably during the world war. Coinage and temporary cur- rencies, of the war period show a sudden reversion, {in many in- stances, back to the commodity idea where the value of the money depended on whether it could be eaten or worn, The largest coin is a piece of copper weighing 31 pounds and shaped like a slab of bacon. This was legal currency in pld Sweden. The smallest coin on "display is a duly stamped pinhead of gold used in. southern Indiana and worth approximately four cents. There is a check collection which includes originals signed by Washington, Lincoln and most of the presidents. Other items in- clude John Law'g Mississippi "'bub- ble" currency, rag money of the California volunteers, pieces of eight that figured in pirate lore, stick tobacco and mat money of the South seas, leather money, rubber money, wooden money and a large assortment of American colonial money. Mr. Zerbe now {is chairman of the executive committee of the New York Numismatic club and is the first numismatist to be incluad- ed on the executive staff of a bank. He is 58 years old and was a merchant in Tyrone, Pa., until 1900.
