The tables were beautifully decorated with daffodils and can- dles in silver candlesticks, instead of the prosaic electric bulbs pro- viding the fitful light for the pro- ceedings, and giving the affair a puaint and bizarre appearance. The feature of the evening was an address from Mrs. Mason, of Bowmanville, who spoke on .the "Canadian Girls." The girls of to- day were not the pioneers In car- ving out careers in medicine, law, and the business world, said Mrs. Mason, that had been done by the generation preceding them, their mothers and even perhaps stimm- lated by their mothers. The girls of today, however, had new paths to blaze, new problems to solve that their mothers knew little or nothing about. Some girls thought that if they could mot accomplish big things that their tasks were not worth performing, but it was the little things that counted, and that could not afford to be despised. Mr. Ma- son sald she was confident that the Canadian girls were op the right track, and were faithfully following up the ideals that she thought belonged to Canadian girl- hood. The entertainment portion of the nrogram was well looked after by Miss Leah Garrow, who sang a pleasing solo, and Miss Quita Da- vidson, who obliged with a piano THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 29, 1928 LON CHANEY a scene from "London After Midnight." BRINGING FORMER NAVAL MEN HERE Arrangements Are Complet- ed By Navy League of Canada Saint John, N.B., Feb. 29.--In- creased immigration of a high class from the British Isles to Canada was forecast in an interview here on Sunday with Captain CG. 8S. De Carteret, of Halifax, head of a delegation of the Navy League of Canada, who returned on the C, P. steamer Montclare, from Eng- land, where a conference was held with the British Domrinions Immi- gration Society. The conference was very satis- factory, and good results are ex- pected from the agreement reached In solo. The gathering *"got togeth- er" with a sing-song to open the proceedings. The toast to the Kinz | was proposed by Miss Ada London, and the assembly sang, "God Save the King," following the toast. The toast to: the Chureh was given by Mrs. Heist, and responded to hy Mrs. Dougall, The toast to the Mothers, probably the most popu- lar, considering the nature of the ' gathering, was proposed hy Mies) Tois Mundy, and responded to hy Mrs. C. Lander. The Class was proposed hy Mrs. Mundy, and res ponded to by Miss Leone Wallace. Miss Ada London acted as the Class Chairman for the evening.

GERMAN PRINGE AND ENVOY DIES Breslau, Feb. 29.--Prince Lich- nowski, former German ambas- sador to Great Britain, died of apoplexy Monday at his castle at Kuchnela. Prince Lichnowski was German ambassador to Great Britain when the World War broke out, and per- sistently warned Germany against a declaration of war. Prince Lichnowski openly pre- dicted that a war would end mu Germany's downfall. His pre dictions, many detailed, made him one of the great war prophets. He was almost alone among German officials of high influence, and all J during the war, in Germany, he vas under a cloud of suspicion re- rarding his loyalty. He always 1eld his ground. ' In 1918, while the war was still on, Prince Lichnowski pub- lished a memorandum arguing that Germany and Austria were responsible for the war. It was reported he was to be prosecuted, but in June, 1918, he arrived in Switzerland with 2 German pass- port. 3 LOOK FOR DISSENSIONS Herbert Hoover has announced his allegiance to the Volstead ASt, but Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, presi- dent of Columbia University, and one of the stalwarts of the Republican party, says that the wet East will de- cide the issue, and that somebody must be mominated who can beat a wet like Smith of New York or Rit- chie of Maryland in six pivotal Sta- tes. In crises like this the Republi- cans usually calculate wpon dissen- sions in the Democratic party to help them ont. y . whereby former Royal Navy men will be brought to Canada with their families. It is the intention to deal in families, and efforts will be con- rentrated as much as possible on naval men who have been dis~ rharged owing to the fact that the British fleet 'is heing reduced. There are several of these men with their families desirous of coming to Canada. The financial part of the agree- ment will he met hy the British Society, while the Navy Laague will take care of them from the point of their departure until they reach their destination. Positions will be secured hefore they leave the Old Country. The general scheme {is to find jobs for the man and his family if the latter can work. The positions: will then he offered to the men most suitable for the johe. If they accept they will be given a contract for one vear. Should the man default be- fore the: expiration of the year, the League will attend to his de- portation, so that there will he no charge upon the country, All these men, however, must he accepted hy the Canadian doctors in Great Britain.

Williams return- ed last week for the purpose of preparing, for the first batch of families due early in April. Ad- miral W. O. Story, C.B.E., und Col. B. Vynans, other delegates, are yet in London. RUMOR CODIINGE TO VISIT OTTAWA U. S. Magazine Says Presi dent May Lay Legation Stone Ottawa, Feb. 29.--The state- ment contained in a United States magazine that President Coolidge may visit Ottawa this summer as a return courtesy for the visit of the Governor-General to Washing- ton last fall, has aroused comsid- erable speculation here says the Journal in a news page story. states that the President may lay the corner stone of the United States Legation in Ottawa. It adds: "There has heen no announee- ment from Washington concerning the President's plans, but it is be- lieved in Ottawa that if he visits the Canadian capital he will come during the early summer. The Governor-General plans to travel to British Columbia at the end of March and probably will not return until the middle of 'May, and in any event Mr. Coolidge will not pay his visit before that time. "Only one President of the Unit- ed States Las visited Canada dur- ing his term of office. Warren G. Harding, it will be recalled, stop- ped at' Vancouver shortly before his death."

WHAT THEY THINK (Ottawa Citizen) J Most of the fair sex mow think they have a right to life, liberty and the pursuit of snappiness: i De Cateret, It ment in Difficulties Over Sale of Guns Rll Paris, Feb. 29.--Whether or not the disquieting developments in Central Europe during the last week assume the dangerous propor- tions which are possible, there can be no doubt of one positive reac- tion. Both Hungary's hasty sale of the machine guns at St. Gotthard and the sudden Austro-Italian ten- sion over affairs in the lower Ty- Tol--in each of which Italy is def- initely interested, are not calculat- ed to make the task of Rome and Paris reaching a much needed clos- er understanding any easier. In fact, as observers in Paris in- terpret the situation, the heralded Franco - Italian rapprochement which constituted M. De Baumar- chais' principal mission when he re- cently was appointed French am- bassador to Italy, is now in more difficult and uncertain straits than ever. The machine guns smuggled into Hungary at St: Gotthard came from Italy, The polemics between the Fascist and Vienna Government over the treatment of the German- speaking inhabitants of the Tyrol are directly an Italian affair, Rome-.Vienna Danger In the first case, France obvious- ly is committed to the rule of op- posing Italy on the strength of her Little Entente allies. In the second case, if Signor Auriti, the Italian Minister to Austria, fails to return his post and Rome takes the initiative in opening a breech with the Vienna Government, France's peace policy can only make her look with restraint, if not open dis- favor, upon such a break, It may be seen, therefore, that Foreign Minister Briand's and Premier Mus- solini's rapprochement overtures can in no wise benefit from these present central European condi- tions, This explains why the Quay D'Orsay is watching events in Aus- tria and Hungary with the greatest caution and is anxious to throw its influence where it can help some- what out of the troubled waters. Official comment here, is charac- teristically guarded. But it is not difficult to find responsible French- men here who see something more than Tyrol management or mis- management in Italy's quick offence at the speeches made by deputies in the Austrian Parliament. They draw the inference that. perhaps Rome has reason to olf o draw attention away from th nsavory St. Gotthard incident, wich, if an investigation is made by the League of Nations, may leave certain Italians in an embarrassing posi- tion, particularly if proof is forth- coming that the Fascisti actually have beem secretly supplying the Hungarians with arms in defiance of the Trianon treaty. This at least leaves ample room for speculation on the unpleasant developments in Central Europe. War Given In official circles in Paris warn- ings are given against too hasty judgments om the Austro-Italian tension, It is said thay the chief danger Mes in the unfortunate propaganda of the Pan-Germanic press both in Vienna and in Ber- lin, while hope is voiced that Muss- olini will act with restraint before the affair reaches menacing propor- tions, But, in any case, little pro- gress for new declarations for greater amity between Rome and Paris can be expected until these central European tinder boxes are smothered or forgotten. ----E-------------------- CANADA UNWILLING TG-CHANGE POLICY Question of Assisted Pass. ages for Miners Before British House London, Feb, 29.--The Minister of Agriculture announced in the House of Commons Monday after- noon that he would shortly intro- duce a bill for the marking of im- ported eggs. Col, L. C. M. 8. Amery informed Capt. V. A. Cazalet (Conservative, Chippenham) that the British Government would be very glad if Canada could do as Australia and New Zealand were doing, namely, allow assisted passages to married men with families desiring to take up work other than agricultural, Assisted passages to Canada were limited to agricultural workers. Capt. Cazalet referred to min- ing development in Ontario and British Columbia. Col. 4. 8 Wedgewood (Labor) asked if the Government would make represen- tations to the Canadian Govern. ment on behalf of miners here in view of the condition of the mining industry. Col. Amery said he did discuss the question with the Cana- dian Government, but they have not been able to see their way to change their policy.

"LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT" IS COMING TO REGENT THURSDAY Fantastic shadows, weird appari- tions, and the gruesome denizens of the Great Beyond--these are the background for ome of the strangest roles an actor has ever been called upon to play--Lon Chaney's part in "London After Midnight," coming to the Regent Theatre Thursday, Friday and Sat- urday. Ghosts, and the grim things known as vampires, or the "un- dead"----corpses that desert their graves at night to prey upon the living, and other eldritch beings of Europe's many superstitions come to life and being in a strange phanntasmagoria of horror-- creepy, supernatural details to a story that, in its real analysis, sticks to scientific fact. Tod Brown- ing, the author, and also the direc- tor, has worked the wildly improb- able into latter-day fact so skilfully that one almost believes, against his own reason, that such things do exist. : But outside all this--i¢ is one of the greatest screen entertainments Chaney has ever given the silent drama. "The Man of a Tousand Faces" plays a Scotland Yard detective, de- tailed to ferret out a strange plot cloaked behind the shadows of a2 haunted English manor house. A student of hypnotism and other modern Sciences, he pits this strange art against the grim spec- tres and other superstitious beliefs; and solves a mystery that, when the supernatural is explained away, is a very remarkable scien- tific exposition of the craft of the modern investigator of crime. It is the last word in detective stories. As the detective, assuming strange disguises and working 2 strange hypnotic spell as a scien- tific ald to detection, Chaney has a role that keeps the audience in breathless suspense until the amaz- ing solution at the close of the pic~ ture. Marceline Day makes a very charming heroine, and Conrad Nagel a romantic lover for her, while Henry B, Walthall does a splendid 'bit of chaacter acting as "Sir James," about whom the plot revolves. Claude King, Polly Mor- an, Jules Cowles, Percy Williams and others of note have adequate roles, and Waldemar Young's handling of the strange scenario was a clever plece of filmecraft. A young man entered ap ing with a dog and attacted a grea deal of interest from an Irishman, who-inquired what kind of a dog it was. The owner looked the questioner insolently up and down and then replied: "It's a cross between an ape and an Irishman."
