The speaker of the evening was Rev. D, W, Christie, Minster of Rhode"s Avenue United CEurch, Toronto, who took for his subject "Smiling Through." The address was quite out of the ordinary run of addresses and was very amusing, Mr, Christie being Scotch, directed many Jokes of this nationality on the audience and gave a wandering address touching on many sub- tecte which truly kept his audi- ence "Smiling Through." The speaker was introduced by Mr. Nicholls of the , Goodyear Tire Co., and rt the conclusion of the address, Rev, C. R. Spencer mov- ed and Mr, BE. P.

Bennett Sailed For New York on Thursday Ottawa, Nov. 13. -- Right Hon. ichard B. Bennett, Prime Min- ister, left yesterday afternoon for New York, where he may embark on a trans-Atlantic voyage or go south for a few weeks, depending largely on the mood. He was ac- companied by his private secre- tary. Arthur Merriam. The rime Minister has been advised by his doctor and Cabinet Col- leagues to take a short rest. He hae been working 16 hours a day for the last twelve months or more, and the strain of doing three men's worl: has proved too much for him. All Canadians, 1egurdless of politics, will wish him a beneficia! holiday. 1t is the first he has taken in several years. He does not play golf or bridge, has no hobbies or re- creations but reading, and his reading is all of the serious kind. It is possible, however, the Premier will visit England and discuss intra-Empire trade. Other versions of his holiday is that he is safling Saturday morning on the Aquitania, It is expected he will return to Ottawa about the middle of December, and he then will have to start the work of preparing for the session of Parliament, which will be summoned early in February, it is believed. Before the Government meets Parlia- ment there may be some reorga- nization of the Cabinet, including the appointment of a Minister of Finance, vhile a new Tariff Com- mission also is to be established in the near future, The indus- trial interests are expecting some tariff revisions, but it is doubtful whether much in the way of a reneral revision can be under- taken before the Empire Eco- nomic Conference meets. Hon. Edmond B. Ryckman will be Act- ing Minister of Finance in the absence of Mr. Bennett from Ot- tawa, and Sir George Perley Act- ing Premier. Hon. Charles retary of State, away for a few weeks' holidays. Mr. Cahen was in the hospital lately with a broken leg, and im- mediately on his discharge took over the work of the Minister of National Revenue, who was®re- cuperating in the Old Country. The additional work proved too nch for his strength and he is now taking the West Indies cruige in search « ° better health, DIED YOUNG--In Toronto, November 12th, Wilfred A.

Simpson of the Maddon Coal Corporation's fleet is in port at Oshawa harbour to-day unloading a cargo of 1,900 tons of soft coal consigned to the McLaughlin Coal Co. The coal will be distributed to the various industries in the city in trucks direct from the wharf. The steamer is berthed on the north side of the storage space in the turning-basin and, due to the fact that the crane on the boat is too short to unload the coal on to the plattorm, it will be loaded directly into the trucks that will cart it away, It is anticipated that at least ten trucks will be on hand this afternoon so that the un- loading will not take very long. ~ COMING EVENTS 8 Cents per word each in sertion, Minim THE LYCEUM WOMAN'S ART Association invite you to ate tend the exhibition of painting and sculpture, by well known Canadian artist in the Genosha Hotel Friday and Saturday af- ternoon and evening.

PROSPERITY 1 VERY APPARENT President "of Canadian Bankers Stresses ada's Dominance Montreal, Nov. 13.--Unmistak- able signs of a return in Canada to prosperous times are becom- ing apparent, so Beaudry Leman, retiring president of the Cana- dian Bankers' Association, told that body at its annual meeting here yesterday. Closing his presi- dential address, Mr. Leman said. "A cursory glance at occurrences during the last two years evi- dences the fact that the world has witnessed a drastic deflation of commodity prices and security values, The figures representing these readjustments are appalling. Govrnments, in many of the wealthiest countries of the world, have been hard pressed to main- tain their credit structure and, vet, throughout this financial and economic upheaval, young Can- ada has not suffered a single bank failure, "Nothing much can he wrong with a system that produces such results, and some merit must at- tach to the organizations which have conserved intact che savings of the people and kept them available to insure the return of prosperous times in Canada, of which unmistakable signs are be- coming apparent." The Dominion's dominant position was further attested in his comments upon the very high proportion of the country's pub- lie debt which is held by nation- als here at home, the growth of Canadian gold production to a point at which this country has become the world's second great- set producer, and the manifest advantages Which inhere in cur- rently higher wheat prices, In view of these factors Mr Leman deplored the tendency of Canadian publie : bodies and in- stitutions to go abroad in search of their credit requirements, ad- vising them to borrow at home and to keep their indebtedness within the capital--providing limits of domestic gcurces. High among factors contribut- ing to a return of prosperity he placed recent advances in the price of wheat, saying: "The marked increase in the price of wheat in the past six weeks is a matter of the highest importance to this country. The increased price bas stimulated transportation seaward ~ by ral} and on the Great Lakes by boat. The new money received in pay- ment should materially benefit our western provinces, improve the exchange rate on the Cana- dian dollar and increase the pur- chasing power throughout Cane ada." PROGRESS MADE * AT CONFERENCE Step Nearer Solution of Problems Facing India London, Nov, 13. ~~ The vex atious minorities question, which has beén holding up the work of the Indian Round Table Confer- ence, came a step nearer. to solu- tion yesterday with the an- nonnce that agreement had been reached by those minorities which are classified as Moslems , de pressed classes, indian Chris tians, Anglo-Indians and Euro- Deans. These groups have joined oin a memorandum headed "claims of the minority communities," which has been circulated among the members of the minorities rommittee of the conference. While the main disagreement between Hindus and Moslems re- rains unaffected by the agree- ment, it was hailed in confer- ence circles as happy augury of the ultimate success of efforts to soive the principal minority prob- Jem. The agreement stipulates that all public services shall be open to all castes and "untouchables" without discrimination. The minorities enjoying special rep resentation in the legislatures will continue to do so but will be allotted more seats than strictly warranted by the census figures. The Furrnnas= - munity will be allowed equal in- dustrial and commercic, .._..8 witk native Indians. As a special concession to the Moslems the northwest frontier province will be granted the same measure of autonomy as the other provinces. In addition, 8'nd will be separated from the Bombay presidency and made a province on an autoomous foote Ing. Some people can best make theit presence felt by their absence. gp Saturday Specials At Bowra Electric & Hardware Wash Basins. Reg. 40c. Sale ..........20c Wash Basins. Reg. 45¢c.
