Marius Barbeau, of Ottawa, express- ed the belief that, from an artistic and literary standpoint, our country had not as yet truly come into its own. But spefking recently before the members of the Empire Club, he directed a gleam of light toward Can- ada's dark musical past and allowed its beam to reflect a ray of hope for the future. Through the medium of French-Canadians' folk-lore and their musical interpretations he visioned the possibility of Canada's national soul being expressed. . In Canada's folk-songs, the most of them of French and some of In- dian origin, he saw a national asset having a value comparative in value to the country's mines and wealth. "And if her mines and wealth should pass away, what remains is the ex- pression of a nation. Canada will only exist whén she finds her own. truc art." Thus he is quoted by The Globe, Europe's Musical Art M. Barbeou contends that Europe's modern musical art and expression had found its birth in her folk-songs. In Canada, that same art and ex- pression could be found in her folk- songs, which, although of French origin, had receive® certain qualities through New World environment that would render am individual expres- sion. The high spirits, gai¢ty, humor, and something of the theatricism that the folk-songs bespeak of the health, the freedom, the hopefulness and the Gallic origin of the French of Canada were expressed in the unaccompanied songs of H.H. Phileas Bedard, Que- bec and M. Bardeau, "M. Bedard is one of the/ foremost singers of the country," said M. Barbeau. "A good folk-singer knows between 200 and 300 songs and as the majaority ot them are songs of love, one can un- derstand that M. Bedard must have an equally large vocabulary pertain- ing to love," he smilingly told his audience. ITALY ABOLISHES TIPPING SYSTEM And What Mussolini Ozders to Be Done Must Be Obeyed Folk Rome, Mar, 22--Tipping has been abolished in Italy and all hotels and boarding houses are compelled to put up notices in four languages to in- form their guests of the fast. In place of tips a sum representing a percentage of the total--10 to 15 per cent--is added to the gueses' bill and is divided amongst the staff of the hotel. The change has been brought about by an agreement on conditions of work and wages in the hotel indus- try recently concluded between the Italian hotel keepers' association and the hotel. workers' trade union, A noteworthy feature of the agree- ment is the system of apportionment of the sums received in lieu of tips among the various categories of ho- tel servants. All hotel workers are now divided into two main classes-- the "visible" or those who come in direct contact with the guests' and the "invisible", or those whose du- ties are more impersonal and are confined to such secluded piaces as the kitchen, ? The visible workers receive 88 per cent on the shareout and the invis- ible the remaining 12 per cent. In each category the amount each in- dividual worker receives depends on the nymber of "points" which he or she holds and which are apportioned according to the class of work per- former. A head waiter in the res- taurant, for example, is entitled to 20 points, and an assistant head waiter 14, while an ordinary waiter gets 9, Salaries are received in addition, At one hotel the total amount for one ten day period runs in the neighbor- Bush Horses y during March we will sell 100 bush horses.

LONDON HOPES TO SEE ITALIAN ART Exhibition of the Foremost Italian Paintings May Be Arranged London, March 22.--For some time it has been known in which are called "art circles" that an exhibition of Italian art at the Royal Academy on the lines of the recent Dutch and last year's Flemish exhibition was in contemplation and that Signor Mus- | solini was reported to be favorably disposed towards the scheme, char- arter and. scope of an exhibition deal- ing with the most important of all the national schools of painting, but the prospect is one to stir the im- aginaion, hinted," says The Times. "We shall be wise not to expect such a picture as Tintoretto's 'Crucifixion' from Venice but there are many smaller works, such as the Giorgione 'Tem- pest' in the Giovanelli Palace which would make Burlington House a place of pilgrimage from near and far." SHARK PRODUCTS TO BE SAVED Valuable products from sharks are to be reclaimed in a factory which is to be erected at Twofold Bay, Australia. It is estimated that nearly $1,600 will be re- ciaimed in oils, leather and other substances produced from the sharks and other edible fish, many tons of which are caught in that vicinity during the whaling season.
