This has been arranged by the Ontario Athletic Commission, which for the past six years has handled these events and under whose jurisdiction the boys who are successful in the district com- petitions will gather at Toronto later in the summer to compete for the Provincial Schoolboy Championships. This week schedules of the ev- ents and dates on which the dis- trict meets will be held have been sent out by the Commission. Dis- trict No. 8, in which the schools of this section have been placed, apparently takes in the whole of Nipissing, Temiskaming and Cochrane districts and Algoma and Sudbury as well, and includes 36 High Schools, Continuation Schools and Collegiate Institutes. There are nine districts in the province and the dates of the meets are from May 23rd to June 6th, with the final set for August 28th at Toronto. Entries for this district are to be sent to Mr. M. Leo Troy; North Bay Collegiate, North Bay. The district meets are open to all school boys in Ontario with- out cost. The only stipulation made by the Commission is that a competitor must have made 50% in his school work during the year. Medals are presented to the winners and to those plac- ing second in each event.

MacKeracher, pas- tor of the Haileybury United Church for the past five and one half years has requested a change of pastorate, the request being presented at the last meeting of Temjskaming Presbytery, held on ursday last in Englehart. This request will go to the Set- tlement Committee of the Con- ference, when that body meets in Toronto on June Ist, and until that time Mr. MacKeracher has no knowledge of where he will be stationed in the future. Rev. MacKeracher came_ to Haileybury in succession to Rev. J. O. Watts, who had been in charge of the church for some years.

Gold, silver and bronze medals will be awarded those placing first, second and third respectively and the boys will be well cared for. Ina letter to the press the Commission says: "This is the sixth year of the Commission's work along this line, and some very splendid re- sults have already manifested themselves. At the British Em- pire Games held in Hamilton last summer, seven of our schoolboys still in attendance at school, were on the Canadian Men's Track Team. Many of the other mem- bers of this team had previously gained much of their training and experience, as schoolboys com- peting in our meets." Mr. and Mrs. George Suther- land Sr., who have been living in Bestel for the past couple of years, have returned to town and taken up residence at their old home on Russell Street.

ESTION aio STOMACH ARTBURN EADACH GASES -NAUSEA CESS acid is the common cause indigestion. It results in pain and sourness about two hours after eat- ing. The quick corrective is an i which neutralizes acid. The best corrective is Phillips Milk of M nesia. It has remained standard wit physicians in the 50 years since its invention. One spoonful of Phillips Milk of Magnesia neutralizes instantly many times its volume in acid. Harmless, and tasteless, and yet its action is quick. You will never rely on crude methods, once you learn how quickly this method acts. e * Be sure to get the genuine. "Milk of Magnesia" has been the U. S. Registered Trade Mark of the Charles H.

It is simply the (Continued irom Page 1) per cent preference to British goods, and that such a margin means nothing to Britain. _ The situation is this. We have been importing in the neighbor- ltransference of probably $300,000 000 of our purchases from the United States to Britain each year. There will no longer be any guessing as to whether or not this government will "peg" the hood of $600,000,000 a year worth price of wheat. It will not. The of manufactured, or semi-manu- experience of the United States factured goods from the United States. The non-existence of a preference in favor of British goods on those imports, or the insufficiency of existing prefer- ences allowed, made it impossible for British manufacturers to ov- jercome the geographical or mass production competition of the United States in the~ Canadian market. Mr. Bennett's plan has in mind the bridging of this gap. In many cases probably even five per cent additional advantage would transfer the market to Britain. In others ten per cent will do it. Elsewhere perhaps even greater preference will be necessary. But the basis of the whole offer that Mr. Bennett pect that a couple of games will be played each week during the summer season. Haileybury has not maed any move toward or- ganizing baseball or softball yet. where less than twenty per cent of the total crop is raised for ex- port has been a disastrous warn- ing. In a country such as Can- ada, where 75 per cent of the wheat crop is customarily Avail- able for export, pegging might not take more than three years to throw the whole country into a financial tragedy that would out-rival the present situation in New South Wales. fo Use Dorothy Brand Evaporated Milk for your coffee.
