Another stage in the modernis- .ation f the Queen Hotel has just ‘been nished, with the complete renovation of both dining-rooms. [Visitors to the main dining-room are impressed with the cool. blue tones prevailing in the color scheme. adding a graclout atmosphere for the serving of the Queen's famous native dishes. The walls are done in a medium blue paper, lightened by a faint basket-weave design, over a wainscoting of natural cedar. The floor is covered in marboleum of ’ contrasting blue and red rectangles. and these same colours are picked ‘up in the homespun drapes. Win- clows have been shortened to a modern rectangular shape, the ,panes of a new-type concave glass designed to admit more light, less ‘sight.

The room has been equipped Wm‘ new fumiture in Imperial Loyalist ‘pattern, dark‘red maple chairs land corner cupboards. Sewing- 5tables are built-in, with red Ar-

iwith Mono-doors of natural fir, ‘cut with fan-shaped windows. ‘ The new banquet room at the

Irear, large enough for forty 81l95‘5v ‘contains the same general design and color scheme, but in reverse. iﬂere an effect of warmth is at- tained by emphasizing red instead :0; blue, and the wainscotlng is of ,"etchwood". the new i!1YW0°d Wm‘ .‘the soft grain buffed out to leave a three-dimensional effect. Chairs are light ash with red leatherette seats. The walls are adorned with 3 get of framed prints of Richard E. Bishop's famous paintings ‘of campaign game birds in flight- based on actual photos taken With a camera fitted with a. telescopic lens. L When the present owners. D- o'Rourke and R. W. Manning.

A must MESSAGE

Dear Friends:

I wish to write about something of which I have been thlnkiiu for some time, and which, 1 think, ap- piies to us all.

Ever since the Government pass- ed the so-caued .'"f‘ernperahce Act" (which is in reality a liquor bill). we have all experienced a let-down feeling. We seem to have a defeat- ist attitude. and a feeling of: "What's the use?"

I would like to offer a few sug- gestions as to why we should try to overcome this attitude.

In the first place. the battle is not done. We are all tamiliar with the temperance maxim: "No ques- tion is ever settled until it is set- tled right." Therefore let us gird up our loins for the fray. realizing that there are golden opportunities before us, and seizing the opport- unities as they come.

In the second place. "The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong," but: "onelwith God is a majority." We are confident that we are on the Lord's side. for we are fully persuaded that God is not in favour of the liquor traffic That consideration alone should give us courage. '

In the third place. "God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty." Therefore let us all hold firm and work unitedly at our task, knowing that: "The effectual ferv- ent prayer of a righteous man"(or woman) availeth much." and rely- ing on God to give us the victory. Lastly. even though we are few in number, we belong to one of the largest. if not The Largest wo- man's organizations in the world. Therefore, even if at the present time, we appear to be only marking time. let us at all costs keep up our organization, and meet from time to time. so that we may hold our part or the line: and when the time comes for united action, and the call comes to advance on an fronts. we may be ready. Edith 3. Clark, President

ALCOHOLICS VICTOTLIOUS

The Chicago Christian Industrial League is located in the heart of that square mile area known as the Area of Forgotten Men. Although The League is’ part of the city missions to any of the so.ooo in that Skid _Row who seek its ser- vice,s. '

One of the newer services is an organization known as Alcoholics Victorious.

The President of Alcoholics Vic- torious is a man who was an alcoholic for twenty years. He was a very influential business man and began his drinking career for business purposes. He took a num- ber of cures. which never really cured him. and thirteen years ago found himself in Skid Row. The League helped to rehabilitate him and he has been sober ever since. The secretary had been an alco- holic for years as a result of family difficulities. He came to The League nineteen months ago and has been sober all that time.

Last Tuesday night, the regular monthly meeting of the Women's Institute flared into a lively and healthy discussion of rural prob- lems in education after a general paper was yiesented on this theme.

Dor- mant ideas like the Home and School Association, more parent- teacher co-operation. the problem of a regional high school, were presented in the discussion ard found receptive minds in the group. Dlsciission is always’a prel- ude to action and it is hoped in the interest of Crapaud and the surrounding cornmunltiee. all of which have identical needs along these lines. that the Institute will initiate some definite steps.
