MONTREAL MEMBER GREATLY MISSED IN PARLIAMENT Toronto Newspaper Pays Tribute to Personality of R. S. White Toronto, Ont., March 23, -- Under the caption "A man who is missed," the Toronto Globe writes thus of R. S. White, M.P.: -- "Parliament has been deprived this session of the pleasure of seeing R. S. White, the popular member for Mount Royal, who has been laid up for several weeks in a Montreal hospital. "Bob" White, as he is familiarly known to fellow-craftsmen throughout Canada, has been a distinguished figure on Parliament Hill since the 80's, when he was a member of the Press Gal- lery, and his father, Hon. Thomas White, was a member of Sir John A. Macdonald's Cabinet and a potential leader of the Conservative Party. No man in Canadian journalism could analyze a budget speech lige "Bob" White, and the younger generation of journalists used fo marvel at the ease and clerity with which he completed the task, while perusal of the finished product the morning after in his pa- per was a sheer delight. One found the salient features of the budget embellished, illuminated and interpre- ted for the mandarins of Montreal in the space of a column. When Hon. James Robb rose the other day to deliver this year's budget, a special messenger delivered a copy of it at Mr. White's bedside in Montreal, with the compliments of the Minister of Finance. But if the member for Mount Royal is missed on the floor of the House, he is missed even more in the lounge-room of the Press Gallery, where genial souls gather when the debates are dull. And he will be missed, too, by the little folk of Westmount, whose special friend he is. For in the summertime he treats the children of the neighborhood to ice cream cones. In that connection he experienced the thrill that comes once in a lifetime one day last Aug- ust. He was sitting in his library when the front door bell rang. Mrs. White went to the door and found there a boy and girl, aged about 5, who wanted "to know if the ice cream man was in." Friends of "Bob" White, old and young, will wish him a speedy and complete restoration to health and strength, for no man has dispensed more good fellowship and sunshine than this notable Canadian journalist and gentleman, ; GUELPH TO HOLD MUSIC FESTIVAL Produce Prices in the Commercial Markets TORONTO PRODUCE QUOTATIONS Toronto wholesale dealers are paying the following ' prices, delivered Toronto: ' Eggs, ungraded, cases returned--Fresh ex. tras, Soc; fresh firsts, 28c; seconds, i Ais No. 2 40 15. to 40 Ske: Nyy Ny oe. 22 0 Sle. 0. 3 heese--No, 1 large, colored, paraffined and a gl 2 12%. 32-34 28- 27.

At this musical assembly some 4,- 500 pupils of the royal city schools will participate in a program arrang- ed to show the citizens and Mr, John- son particularly what remarkable re- sults have been obtained in the way of musical education in the short space of eight months. Ranking as one of the leading smaller cities of fhe . Dominion in musical activity Guelph has on many occasions done itself proud in en- deavors along musical lines, but the festival which is to officially mark the close of the 1928-1929 ~ season promises to be the most elaborate en- tertainment of its kind. Mr. John- son is expected to contribute num- bers one evening of the festival, while the Toronto Symphony Or- i chestra has been engaged to play a prominent part in the second night's program. Under the direction of J. L. Yule, former musical director in the Kitch- ener' schools, wonderful results have been achieved through the plan of training made possible by Mr. John- son's gift.
