The conference has brought to- gether representatives from the chief newspapers in Canada, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, the Irish Free State and India, and the long and' varied "program has been carried ! through without a hitch, under the auspices of the British Empire Press Union, of which John J. Astor, pro- prietor of the Times, is chairman. T. W. MacKenzie, chairman of the South African delegation, on June 28 said the great aim of all who bad at- tended the conference had been for closer union between the countries within the British Empire." Freedom in unity was what the conference had set out to attain. While there must be closer trade understandings and re- lations, they must seek a more lasting cement than even the most favorable trade agreement. Their aim should be toward a political union--not party political union but a political union of the various countries. He wished to see a council of empire established, not a legislative or an executive body but an advisory body which would deal with all the big questions fairly and squarely and advise the various governments upon them. eee dl} etn Some fathers still seem wonderful to their small sons, and some have tried to help them with their home- work. - i ein Recent Bride: "I can't stand it any longer, Judge. ~My husband actually swore at me (tearfully).
