Wonderful memâ€" discuss ghosts and murders, and finally when they are all worked up in the spooky atmosphere one present conâ€" fesses to poisoning his host. It was a good play,â€"well written,â€"arriving at its climax gradually and each characâ€" ter did marvellously well. It is not fair to the other young actors to sinzle one out for special praise but Bessie Verner gained their quota of laughs, and even they couldn‘t be awkward. "At the George‘ the first act, was splendidly done. Five people who had been present at an old friends house, the night before he mysteriously died, have all received telegrams signed "L" to meet at a remote courtry inn at a certain date. They all goâ€"they all meet; they talk things over, while things get creepier and creepier. They The boys‘ athletic exhibition (under Mr. Mulchhy) was as fine a gymnastic display as we have ever seen from boys of this age. Really remarkable were the pyramids and tumblinzg examples shown. Gratce, easy action, strength, balance, muscularâ€"activity, lissomness. all were apparent. The boys got great applause and deserved every clap. From George Dogue whom we could see was one of the best, to Stephen Evans, the smallest boy, each was on his toes, and not one missâ€"timed act was noted. The two clowns (Pecore and Donaldson) A Country dance "Gathering Peasâ€" cods‘ was most gracefully and lightly executed. The girls under Miss Wilkins and Miss Lucas have been trained to do this well.

"A business change of considerable local interest took place in Rouyn this ;“eek when the Royal Sweets Tea Room on Main street was purchased by A. G. Luxton of Timmins, a wellâ€"known resiâ€" dent of the north for many years who recently disposed of his business in that town.. He took over the business cn Tuesday and will be assisted in his new enterprise here by Mrs. Luxton and their son and daughter. The famnly comes to Rouyn with the highest creâ€" dentials and will be welcomed as citiâ€" zens. Thay hope to merit a continuâ€" ance of the patronage which has long favoured the pepular Royal Sweets and Mr. Luxton will be on hand at all times to welcome old and new customers, Good food, well cooked, and quick courteous service at reasonable prices will be the inducements offered the public and Mr. Luxton hopes in this way to merit public confidence and support. The tea rcom will be open day and night. Hector and Frank Elliott, the late proprietors intend to take some holidays, and Hector will probably be in business again someâ€" where before long, while Frank is planâ€" ning a visit to Italy his dheomeland, beâ€" fore settling down again.‘ COULD WRITE! COULDN‘T READ! Mr. Blake directed and trained the caste of "Thank {you Doctor." The Rouynâ€"Noranda Press last week had the following paragraph which will be of general local interest: Mr. Blake and his assistants are to be complimented on the success of the concert, and we feel sure that the bringing together of pupils from Schuâ€" macher and teacthers from both schools, to say nothing of Schumacher people patronising a South Porcupine concert, will do a very great deal toward ceâ€" menting the two ends of our township into one. Miss Lucas trained and directed "The Patriot," l i "Thank you Ix«tor"® was the thixd play and so very realistic, that some of us wonderer afterwards if we wer> "seeing things."

Dennis Pullin LV s1 iss .4 + xt Fino Kautto Dennis Pullin as a crazy man was almost too realistic and Lillian Kaufâ€" man as a clever jewel thief was most convincing also. The whole plot was cleverly laid. A patient was to come to the famous psychiatrist at his sister‘s pathetic plea. His failing was that he imagined he had lost a valuable pearl necklace. The patient comes (he is a fake, of course and in league with Mrs. Lester) and put on his act,. Afterwards a jJewellers‘ assistant calls at the office with a string of pearls (and is met by Mrs. Lester) for the doctor‘s niece (also a factitious lady made up by Mrs. Lester). She goes off with the pearls. He waits while she interviews here "unâ€" cle." In comes the crazy "brother" and all go "unts‘" together. By the time that "Cort" is strapped in a straitâ€"jacket (Cort is really wonderfully portrayed by Kautto) and we all are wondering how it will end.

He arrived on Saturday night and leaves toâ€"day to keep up with his halfâ€"comâ€" pleted tour of Canada. President of the Arihur Balfour Co. (Canada) Ltd., and the Capital Steel Works, Sheffield, Lord Riverdale has for years been an authority on inâ€" ternational economics. He was the chief British delegate to the World Economic Conference of 1927. This visit to Canada is one of a series of trips of a "purely rscnal‘ nature made by him once every two years, he asid. Speaks of Corentation Like most British subjects, Lord Rivâ€" erdale is somewhat exzcited at the prosâ€" pect of the Coronation celebration this May. "Ycu‘ll see millions of people in the streets of London. Traffic will be completely stopped. There‘ll be dancing and singing." Police will throw off for one evening at least their traditional alr of reserve and will be seen dancing in the streets just as the others. What happened at the Jubilee celebration of two years ago will happen again. Deâ€" spite the derse crowds and the wonderâ€" ful opportunity for pickpockets, there Questioned about an article that apâ€" peared in British, American and Canaâ€" cian medical journals that left the imâ€" pression that the poorer classes in Ergland suffer from malnutrition, Lord Riverdale said that condition definitery did not exist. In Germany, though, the people are beginning to suffer. Malâ€" rutrition may scon show its effect there, he said. The Years Hang Ligh‘ly Personally, Lord Riverdale is an imâ€" mediately attractive sort of man. Tall and well built, he is now a man well on in years. But they seem to hang lightly on his broad shoulders. Pleasant of voice ard hearty of manner, he makes friends rapidly. He talks easily on almost any subject. War, Lord Riverdale said on his visit two years ago to Timmins, was imposâ€" sible for fifty or a hundred years in Europe. He still holds that view, and toâ€"day at the Kiwanis Club, he gave the reasons, clearly and authoritatively. Many Catholitcs of town, who came from the Ottawa Valley, will regret to learn of the death last Wednesday of the Rev. Father Murray, who for sevenâ€" teen years has been parish priest at the Church of St. Jolhn the Evangel‘st, Camphell‘s Bay. News was reczived here yesterday of his death from cancer in St. Vincent‘s Hospital, Los Angeles. He had gone to California for his health early in January. Father Murray was one of the speakers at the banquet given in Timmins a year ago last September by the Catholic Women‘s League and was a great friend of Father O‘Gorman and Father McManus of Timmins His body will be brought from California to Pembroke where his mother is living and a requiem mass said there before interment in Campbell‘s Bay on Tuesâ€" day. Father O‘Gorman left on Saturâ€" day and Father McManus will leave on Monday to attend the obsequies. Fathâ€" er Murray was 47 years of age and had won the Military Cross during the war. He was noted as a fine crator. "Not a great deal," he replied. "Our piants were working at 96 per cent. capacity (jefore the present armament programme was undertaken. We don‘t like the business of arminz but we find is recessary." Lord Riverdale Notes Conditions A between Dr. Atkinson‘s car and the car of Dr. Barry oâ€"curred on Railroad street on Wednesday when the cars slid on the icy road at Rich‘s corner. It was a headâ€"on collission but fortunately nobody was hurt, The lantern lecture on Wednesdav in St. Paul‘s Church was on "‘The Anâ€" glican Mission" in Kangra, India., _ Mr. Jack Hean, of Gravenhurst, is visiting Mr. Carl Gilmour for a time.
