He gaid the movement among the farmers of the west was prompted, by the laws of | || seli-preservation. They had to get to- | gether for the purpose of defeating the grain elevator monopoly as exer- | i c.sed by the railways. They secured the Grain Aet, and the prosecution of the Canadian Pacific Railway for violation of the car.distribution pro- visions of the Act was the first blow | at the monopoly. From that time the existence of the Grain Growers As-| sociation. was justified, and it grew | rapidly in numbers in all of the prai- | rie provinces.

Be. fore appearing on the theatrical field as a playwright, Mrs. Cushing was well known throughout the land as an authoress. The story concerns Glorianna Gray, a society girl, who is obliged by financial reverses to earn her own living as a singing and danc- ing teacher. Under stress of circum- stances she assumes the name of a timid friend who is too bashful to dead hushand, because she is un- known to his folks, thereby precipt- tating a situation that results in more than two hours of lively and divert- ing entertainment.

The result is i that the grain growers are in politi- cs and time alone will show whet her the movement 'is a desirable one for the country as a whole.
