It may be of interest to explain the motive behind this announce- ment. In every community there are those who think that the usual run of cheap ' melcdrama' does not fill all requirements in the way of public enter ainment. | It is felt that more could be done to cater to that large element] which has nothing but ridicule for the blood and Rhunder stuff. With a view to meet this con- dition, and to provide something out of the usual, Mr Bailey has agreed, at the request of the W. I to arrange for the appearance of Mr McRaye on Thursday next following the usual screen pro- gramme. As a result, those who at'end the Thursday show will be treat- ed to a programme which should suit all tastes. The picture will be st free at 7.30 to allow time £ Ir McRaye's address to fol- Mo additio:al charge will be made, and those who secure their seats early will be in a posi ion to enjoy the whale program- me to the best advantae.

We have been surprised to find that many women have a wrong impression of this organization, which s rapdly becomng a power n Canada. It does not entail any arduous labor upon its members unless they feel disposed to work. Indeed, the present work of the Institute seems to be in the nature of seeking to mould pub- lic opinion. Geo. A. T'utnam has recently]; summarized the status of the Women's Institute thus: "The 950 branches of the W.I. are now in the positon of each ite work of real worth, and stand ready and confident in their ow: pow=r to deal with local problem: and to meet'local needs. - The; are also waiting to take' part I those province wide campaign wheh may be decided ujon hein leaders in the Provincia rederation, elected by reprecen- tative women from all paits o die provnee."? One of these dominion widc campaigns is now on, and unless the women of Dryden act pionip- tly, they will fal to have a share in the victory which is now within our grasp. : Every woman s welcome to our o | meetings, whether a member or not. On Friday, April 1st, in' the ~asement or Union Church, 'here will be a Mo.hers and Daughters Banquet. All women of the Church are urgently requested to come and bring their daughters, or if they have none of their own, bring some one else's daughter. THE JACK POT. REMEMBER the Referendum!

It is obvious that if the inanu- facturer goes to where the eight hour day does not apply, the worker will go where it docs. The Thaw is uncovering a brilliant array of corks avd bottle necks.
