Theatre Aluminum Matince Wed- nesday afternoon, as she climbed over a huge pile of old pots and pans in the lobby. "I thought tac salvage committce collected ahl tais a week ago!" Through the generosity of Mrs. Doris Ross a special show was put on 8t the Royal Theatre, the pnice of admission belng some alumi- numn article. The response was tremendous and thc theatre wa packed to the doors. The show was in aid of the Red Cross and a number of the ladies ta that organization assisted at the door but their ingcnuity was overtaxed for once. The salvage ta the lobby made quite a con- trat with the luxurious furnish- tags of the newly rcmodelled theatre. PcrodcaiyMrs. Ross has made siilr eres doing what she conîdrs erpart in war work. AU1 in ahi her initiative has made ber deserving of much credit and the tangible result of ber efforts is considenable. Merchants Express Views on Street Dance Saturday Many have asked just whnt effect the Saturday night frolic in tac heart of the town bad on business. It bas- been suggcsted tant the dance drew a large num- ber down town and hadl a bene- ficial "tonie" effect on business in general. If tis is the case, it is argued, it would not be amiss to stage similar affaira pcniodîcnlly. Since The Statesman bnd an opportunity to speak to rnost of tac business men within the lat fcw days, their comments are worth noting. Sunprisingly enougb, tbcy dlaim that business was not pepped up Saturday night. Possibly the restaurants are exceptions to this statement, but even they did not find trade booming. One dry gooda mer- chant even wcnt ns fan ns ta, say that bis trade was deprcssed by the dance and offercd as n reason that it was lnrgely patronized by tac younger generation, the older folks, who do the buying in his lime, staying -at homne.' Summarizing, ai the merchants seemned to think the fete was a pleasant and credîtable expeni- mnéat but. they did not favor put- ting similan affairs on vcny often. v il LOWEST PRICES PRESCRIPTIONHS CAREFULLY AND ACCURATELY COMPOUNDED When you bring your prescription to us you can be assured of the finest possible resuit.
