Paper on the Queen's Park | Revels; rm | The Port Hope Guide, a new spaper which supported Sam Staples, U.F.O. | member for West Durham, has the following scathing criticism to | make of the memorable Queen's | | Park party in the closing hous ot last session, and the stand taken by { the Drury Government. "June 21st, 1921, will be remem- bered as a notable date. The legis- | {lature was prorogued. Members of | the assembly, principally U.F.0.'s | sathered in a large room in the | buildings. An unlimited supply of | whiskey was immediately forthcom- ing. The end of the session was cese- | brated with obvious results to many | of those taking part. It was a dis- graceful but a jolly party. Young women typists were sent, for. Somo of them are said to have entered inwo the spirit of the occasion, were pass- ed from knee to knee among the maudling crowd of jolly representa- tives of the people, and hugged and kissed by these slobbering muddle- brained chosen representatives of an intelligent electorate The party broke up next morning at two o'clock. "In a short tinie the story leaked {out, The U.F.0. exectuive, Burn- aby, Morrison and Fraser, passed a formal resolution condemning the orgy. But great care was taken that it did not reach the press. The tale was brought to Premier Drury. He was assured that no member of the cabinet had done anything to be ashamed of. But the premier did not consider himself the cystodian of the moral conduct of his followers. It was hoped the unseemly orgy woud be forgotten. But not so.
