Paying a visit to the Oshawa Winter Gardens which have been for several seasons the mecca of dances, a new and differznt scene awaited us. Over the entire dance floor and up on the stage where wunce the saxaphone player and jazz violinist held sway, has been laid a beautiful lawn which we learn is several inches deep of what is known as golf green. Greener and. more grass-llke than turf itself, this green is like a rich sott earpet un- derfoot. Arranged around are many interesting hazards which make up 18 holes of golf. The decora'ive scheme of the Winter Gardens with its canopy of Autumn tinted leaves has been retained. 'The lighting of course, has been increased and gay lanterns shine softly {hrough the foliage while warm shaded floodlights give a glow of color to the scene. It is wonderfully quiet. The thick carpet of green softens all noise. With the bright paint. ed hazards, and the soft shaded lights, it is like a fairyland play- ground. 'The game of indoor golf, while similar in many respects te the outdoor miniature golf with which we have all become 'familiar, is also evidently quite different. There are no separate fairways, all 18 holes being played on one big lawn. Each hole has its tee mat plainly numbered and its hazard snd a cup besides which stands -a marker. Strikingly new hazards have been introduced and there included four maghle - niblick shots which while being simple enough for the beginner to negotiate, will add considerable interest for the practised golfer. As a matter of fact, it may be freely predicted tha: this indoor golf course will appeal very strongly to those who play # regul- ar golf in the Summertime and who will be happy to get the feel of a putter and mashie In their hands | during the winter months. There has been nothing, we are told, similar to this Indoor golf course anywhere in this uelghbour- hood before. It is built on the most modern plan and is of the same type as those that are being installed in the larger metropolitan centres in the United States. Rest rooms for players and plenty of seats for spectators has been provid- ed. There is no charge for admis- slon and thé management are in- viting the public to visit this new addition to Oshawa's recreation and entertainment facilities, GREAT MARKET FOR CANADIAN GOODS Trade Vast Opportunity in the Near East Ottawa. -- Yves Lamontagne formerly of Montreal, who has been loaned for the last three years by the Canadian Government ser- vice to the Egyptian Government as a tariff adviser to prepare the Egyptian tariff, has been appointed in charge of a Canadian trade office at Cairo. The new office which will cover Egypt, the Sudan, Palestine, Cyp- ress, Syria, Irak and Persia has been made necessary as a rasuit of the new subsidized steamship "service from Canada to Egypt, Pal- estine and the west coast of Africa. This service is expected to throw open to Canadian exgjorters a vast market for Canadian products and manufactured goods. In a recent report to the depart- ment of trade and commerce, Mr. Lamontagne predicted great pos- gibilities of trade as a result of the new steamship service. Mr. Lamontagne is a native of Montreal and a graduate of McGil) University. He served overseas with Canadian and Imperial forces and after the conclusion of the war was stationed in India with the Royal Engineers. He joined the Commercial Intelligence = Service of Canada in 1928 and was appoint- ed to the Brussels office. He be- came well-known to many Cana- dians who visited the Canadian vavilion at the Wembly exhibition in 1925 where he was in charge of commercial information. At present, Mr. Lamontagne Is in Canada visiting manufacturers in« terested in trade with Hgypt and the Near East.

There is a fine tone of optimism regarding economic conditions in Canada and a most inspiriting per- sonal cheerfulness in the attitude of prospective exhibitors for the forth- coming Royal Winter Fair, according to a survey made at the Royal Offices this week. Already those who have their thumb on the pulse of the big Fair predict an unsur- passed entry from all the provinces. Judging by the letters received there seems to be growing up among horsemen, cattle, "sheep and swine breeders, poultry fanciers, fruit, flower and seed growers, Government Officials and agriculturalists of every sort an opinion that this year's Royal offers an opportunity for them to express publicly their faith in the underlying soundness of their varied Some of the letters bristle with optimism and good spirit. Every effort is being made to turn these signs of cheerfulyess into acts, and to reflect through the Royal Fair this tone of confident assurance in basic conditions throughout Canada. Preparations are well forward in tvery department. The Royal Horse Show promises to more than equal its dashing and brilliant predecessors, An especially rousing feature is assuréd this year by the presence of crack army teams from European countries, United States and Canada. Exceptionally fine performances with breath-taking incidents are being arranged for every evening. The poultry and pet stock divisions are certain to be packed to the door. Twenty-one specialty poultry and pigeon clubs will hold their club meets during Royal Fair Week, An unusually interesting show of fruit is looked forward to, not only from Ontario but from British Columbia and the Maritime Provinces, The seed competitions will be unique in having a class for registered com- mercial seed taken from actual samp- les sealed at the thrashing by Gov- ernment inspectors. The exhibits of dairy products, in which the Royal has always been foremost on this continent will be no whit behind previous years, The dog show held in cc-operation with the Nationa! Kennel Club will bring in agairf over 600 dogs of the best type. The cat show held for the |of a profound first time last year in conjunction with the Royal Canadian Cat Club is expected to double the entries next November. Some outstanding fine silver and black foxes are promised from Prince Edward Island, and Ontario, New Brunswick, Manitoba, Alberta and British Columbia will be repre- sented.' The total value represented in the fox pens on the upper floor of the West Annex is likely to be greater than in any previous year. Entry lists in all departments will be open until October 30, though it is significant of the enthusiasm that entries are being. received earlier than usual at the Royal Winter Fair Offices. All this is indicative, accord- ing to the management of the Fair, spirit of optimism throughout agriculture that. is of especial significance to other indus- tries and enterprizes in Canada at the present time, BROUGHAM RAILY DAY A SUCCESS Splendid Attendance of Pupils at Sunday School Event Brougham, Oct. 6--Rally day was observed on Sunday, Sent. 28 by a united service of S.S. and church congregation, The yearly promotion exercises formed part of the pro- gram., The church was pleasingly de- corated with autumn leaves and flowers and the lovely day brought cut a goodly congregation as well as a splendid attendance of the S.S. pupils.
