The "narcotic cloudlet'" has evi- dently blown over, and The Star is happy to report in nautical phrase- ology "All is serene." However, interesting tion was gleaned. And it was soothing for those who have been exercised about 'the example to children whose lady teachers smoke in public" According to evidence gathered it was not the women teachers, but the varsity students temporarily employed to do clerical work, who felt the need of a stimulant to while away the deadly monotony. Strange to say, those who were approached on the subject of the women smoking failed to take the matter seriously. informa- cation and the Senate of the uni- versity: who have become uneasy. One fair co-ed of 'peppy' pro- pensities stated frankly. "Sure I had to have a smoke so I went out in the quad: you have to smoke somewhere." Another recalled having seen a varsity maiden indulging in the much-maligned weed on the steps of ti® front entrance. "The girls are kicking about having no smoking room. They complain that they have to go some "distance from the college buildings to a tea-room to smoke," remarked another party, 'and one girl gave that as a reason for failing on her examinations." According to the maiden in ques- tion, she could not get a smoke around the university By the. time she had walked to Bay St., had had a smoke, and walked back, she had lost a good hour of her pre- cious time.

The approximate date for its opening will probably mot be an- nounced until Hon. C. A. Dunning, Minister of Railways and Canals, re- .| turns to his office from which he has been ° absent for ~ several = weeks through illness, but it will likely be well into next year's navigation sea- son before the new route will be ready for use. A report on this gi- gantic undertaking, which is 'really one of the great engineering feats of the present century, has just been submitted by the engineer in charge, Alexander J. Grant to Col. A. E. Du- bue, chief engineer. Almost staggering difficulties have had.to be overcome in bringing the undertaking along to its present stage of completion since Canada first took up the task in 1913. Engi- neering' feats, the seriousness of which at times is known to have weighed heavily on the mind of the minister as well as his responsible officials, have been successfully ac- complished.

Venture by Canadian Tacoma, Wash., July 26.--After a test flight of an hour and a half over Western Central Washington yesterday, Lieut. Harold Bromley enthusiastically announced his monoplane, City of Tacoma, ready for his projected 4,700-mile flight to Tokio, flight ever undertaken. If Bromley is successful in his adventure it will mark another achievement for Canadian airmen, as the flier is a native of Victoria, B.C., although he has been a resi- dent of the United States for some time and has done most of his fly- ing in this country.
