To the uninitiated, the rustic ex terior of "Pat's Palace' suggests revival of ploneer days In frigid northern setting. Its pretentious pame, painted In two-foot letters across the broad gable; the hiss ing gasoline lamp at the portal; the pendent. ironrod triangle that serves as summons-gong for meal- time; even the high boots and par kas and fur caps of the hungry clientele add to the mental pleture of frontier days reborn, At the threshold, accosted by the aroma of steaming stew and tasty coffee, the visitor accepts his first surprise. Two women, trim In riding breeches and woolen camp- shirts, bustle about a tidy kitchen, Some two-score hardy northmen, in § room beyond, are busy about two long tables, depleting a store of appetizing victuals, Immacu- ate linen and shining cutlery gleams on the prandial board, Mas. culine chatter flows tree, no long- er restrained by the cramping con- tines of the colonist car, Supper-laden section men, whose season's work is done, lounge back in unaccustomed comfort of ches- terfiold and fireside chalr, puffing at cigarette, pipe, or even cigar, A gramophone beats out enliven ing tunes ,and a testing wayfarer, perhaps, cheers mates with rous- ing song.

McKenzie Gives { Startling Information in Address Here That the world at the present time was heavier armed than in pre-war days was one of the res markable statements made by Pro fessor Norman McKenzie in a mas torly address to the Wo 's Cane adian Club of Bowmauvi@ in Trine ity. Chureh Sunday school room yesterday afternoon, Mr, McKeus zie who is professor of Interna tional Law at Toronto University spoke to the club on "Canada's Place in International Affairs." The British Empire The first part' the professor touched on was the relationg exists Ang between Canada and Great Britain, and the colonjes and de- pendencles governed directly from London, The Imperial Conference held in London in 1926, he said, defined | there, relationships as equality In status, not bound ex- cept by Empire ties and members of one great British Commonwealth of Nations. Misunderstandings were still exe istent and In October, 1020, ane other conference was held at which thése misunderstandings were ful- ly discussed. The result of this conference' was that Canada or any other self-governing part of the Empire was not obligated by the 'laws of Great Britain but any law affecting the Dominions was only effective If the respective gov- ernments had. agreed to the same, The Empire at this conference was classed as an association of na. tions who eo-operated together for the mutual interest and benefit of all concerned. The British as a people had always insisted on their own rights and in coming to the various Dominions stuck to that Sxidamental right of representa- tion. Effect of Other Countries "Do other countries' affairs af- fect Canada?" asked the speaker, "Although they do not always af fect us directly," he explained, "they do indirectly as can be seen from an event that took place fu 1014." 'In that year an Austrian Archduke was murdered which ace tually had nothing to do with Cane ada, and yet the outcome of this brought the country Into the bigs gost. conflict of all ages, The coun. try was still feeling the effects of this war and was even now paying huge sums each year on the debt contracted during those four years of fighting. IMaving defined Cane ada's position with regard to Great Britain he noted that many couns tries recognized the status of Cans ada and' had ambassadors in the country. Turning to the second stage of his adress he defined the relation. 'hip between Canada and the U. B.A, . This relationship was of fun. damental importance for whether or not we liked it we were attach ed by a 3,000 mile border to that country which maturally has a tre mendous efect on the relationship between the two countries. Trade Rivals The most !mportant phase of this relation was the fact that England and the U.B.A. were at the present time the greatest trade rivals in the world and many mis- understandings naturally crop up. It was part of Canada's duty as a part of the empire to help maintain peace between thése great nations, 44 far as Canada and the other ringions on the western hemisphere were concerned there was little of importance apart from the factor of trade, which. might. be: better developed, To forward thiz end he hoped that Canada would will the vacant seat left for her in the Pan-American Conference, The third part of Mr, McKensie's address dealt with Canada's etatus with the rest of the world and the League of Nations. The League of Nations, he said, was the out. coma of the great war and was n+ stituted for the express purpose of firstly, the reconstruction of all nations after the disorder of war, secondly, for the prevention of war snd thirdly, for the solving of coee nomic problems between all paw tions, Canada a Nation ' Before the war the British fore elgu office was the official mouths , piece of Canada. but at the cone clusion of the war ft was thought desirable and. essential for Canada to be given some voice in the fore eign policy ot the British Empire, | and so through the efforts of Sir Kobert Borden then prime. minis. ter of Canada, the country was re- | presented at the Treaty of Ver< | sailles and since that time has been represented at all eouncils of the League of Nations the same as if it had not been a coputry within the Commonwealth of British Na- tions, Now this Dominion status was being seen in the fact that Great Britain, Ireland and Canadas all bad represeutatives in Washing- ton, who all represented the same king and yet did mot meddle with the affairs of each respective coun~ try. That plainly showed, the speaker concluded, where Canada stood in international! affairs, Naval Conference Following the main address, Mr, McKenzie spoke, for fifteen min utes on the Naval Disarmament Conference now in session in Lon- don. We in Canada; he sald, had | practically achieved disarmament | and were almost free from the tre- | mendous upkeep of huge armfes, | navies and alr forces, Germany | and othey enemy countries were supposédly disarmed after the war but. Germany alone now had the largest fleet of commercial aerc- planes in the world which at a mo- ment's. notice could be turned into § the greatest fleet of war planes in § existence. In fact the whole world was more. heavily armed at the present time than before the war, § the speaker added, He lovked with § hope into 'the future when com- plete. disarmament would become = effective for he saw in Canada a J great commercial' future and the } maintenance of peace was abso- lutely essential for this future to & become effective, 3 Previous to Mr. McKenzie's ad- § dress a short business session 'wax | held with Mrs, E. 8, Senkler in the | , 'Mrs. George Mason, who. was J indisposed.
