Along the top of the arch is inscribed in the stone- work these words: «Children of 2 Common Mother." in the arch below are two iron gates, wide open, and cut into the wall above is the significant phrase:--"May these gates never be closed," ; Tt is a nice idea, this memorial arch built to commemorate 100-years of peace and "concord between Canada yg' and the United States.

The original regulations covered export, import antl inter-provincial shipments but it is now. provided that every case or container of eggs ship- ped or delivered either on consignment 'or -bought for resale will have to be marked on both ends with the name and the class of egg contained there- in. Provision is made that any pro- ducer 'or other person dealing in eggs may, delegate his right to candle and grade to the first wholesaler or re- tailer to whom the eggs are shipped or delivered, in which case' cases Or containers must be marked with the words "Ungraded - Eggs for Ship- ment Only". This regulation will not apply to shipments or deliveries 'direct from producer to consumer. sAn al- lowance is made of sin and one half (6%) apart from breakage. In the event of any complaint as to grade this must be made to the vendor within twenty-four hours of the receipt of the eggs after which time the liability as to the eggs being below grade will rest upon the person on whom the eggs are found. Consumers will be particularly' in- terested in the regulations which read as follows: "Every case or container of eggs that is exposed, displayed or offered for sale by any person selling or delivering eggs direct to consumers in a public place or manner shall be marked, labelled, tagged or accompan- jed in conspicuous letters with the name of the class and grade of eggs contained therein. -No person 'shall ship eggs or cause eggs to be shipped or delivered or displayed for sale®in cases or containers which are marked or labelled or tagged with the name of ny class or grade specified in these 'regulations unless the quality and weight of the eggs contained therein M.F. be or what I another had 40 Dis- written the face: til next March as suggested is not ex- : . pected here, the authorities being an- | CHURCH OF ENGLAND xious to clear the docket of the case Sunday, July 29th immediately.

Therein, no doubt, lies the reason why Canadians today take so much interest in theatricals, and par- ticularly thosg of the amateur variety. Being a small population lying along- side a great one, it is but natural that Canada's professional stage should be entirely dominated by that of the United States, but it is greatly to Canada's credit -that there has come into being an important theatri~ cal movement in this country: which is distinct from that of the, regular professional stage. Under existing conditions it is only thus that there can be developed a Canadian stage i H credit that are wide importance with a literature of its own.

Eggs moving for export, in interprovincial ship- ment, imports, and eggs for domestic consumption are now covered by these regulations. The standards for eggs upon which all this work is based cover both the weight of the egg and the interior quality. The application of these "standards to export ship- ments has given Canadian; eggs an enviable reputation on the British market and the extensions of the reg- ulations to eggs moving into domestic consumption in Canada will be wel- comed by all handlers of eggs "from producer to consumer.

One of his own plays was produced three years ago in Bir- mingham, and it was because there was no native theatre where Cana- dian plays could be tried out that the little theatre of Naramata came to be built. ; ; } The neighbourhood of Naramata had actors enough.
