The only radical change in the Duke‘s 1938 machine over his 1934( model is the installation, on his instruction, of Purdah glass in the back and rear quarter windows. This innovation in motor â€"car engineering is in effect a oneâ€"way glass, making thne passenger invisible from outside while affording him a clear view of the street and passâ€" ing vehicles, which is considered to be of great value to royalty and other notâ€" ables who may wish at times to escape public notite on unofficial trips.

Tribute Paid to the Late Hon. Martin Burrell, Ottawa (From Toronto Star) In 1937â€"38 Canada has lost five of the eighteen mssn who constituted the RBorden cabinet after the reciprocity election of 1911. Many had, of course, passed away in previous years, and there are, indeed, only two now surâ€" viving.. The most recent to go have been Sir Robert Bord>n himself at 82, Hon. W. J. Roche at 78, Sir Douglas Hazen at 77, Sir George Perley early this year at 80, and now, at 79, Hon. Martin Burrell, who has been parliaâ€" m>ntary librarian since 1920. Of the sixteen members of that first Borden In ono> way Mr. Burrell was unique among his cabinet colleagues: While he was alert and progressive (he was campaigning against milkâ€"borne tuberâ€" culosis away back in 1913), he always impressed people as one who was inâ€" terested primarily in something other than politics. And it is true that he had these other interests: fruitâ€"farmâ€" ing, flowers, musi¢, literatureâ€"interests cultural as well as agricultural.. Yet he was practical enough to become one of th2> foremost fruitâ€"growers of, British C:lumbia and to hold, at one time or another, four different Canadian portâ€" fclics: minister of agriculture, secreâ€" tary of state, minister of mines and minister of customs and inland revenue.

As a public speaker, he had wit without malice, and one of the lovelest English accents ever brougzht to Canada. As a young man he came from Engâ€" land to Ontario in the early eighties and took up fruit farming in the Niaâ€" gara peninsula near St. Catharines: madeo his debut as a Canadian public spseak»>r by lecturing there on fruit for the provincial government, went west to Kettle Valley in British Columbia; took up municipal politics; then gradâ€" uated to Ottawa and a cabinet portâ€" folio.
