H they are sailing aboard the Cunarder Aurania from Montreal this summer for "home". Denmark‘s native "Jazz" is not the best, and United States foxâ€"trots are somewhat late arriving in Copenhagen, they said; but young Danes are admirably sociable, young women may vote, and the winter climate is mildâ€"all of which offsets "jazz" difficulties. The seven hundred passengers of the big Cunard liner agreed that tha diplomatic sisters were ambassadors of beauty as weli as zgood will. it was from them we got Thomas himself being too ive us any information Danish Jazz Late The Kapuskasing Courier last week says:â€"‘‘Rev, Douglas Davis, of bmooth Rock Falls, and Rev.
