LONDON, Sept. 2-The newspapers

give prominence to the speeches ot' Sir Robert Borden and`the Prince of Wales at Ottawa. The Daily News re- 'terring to the 1"r0mlcr's speocli at lt‘i l- day’s lunch says he defined with per- fect clarity the Axilationship of the severafmemhers oi' the family of the British commonwealth. Tho News proceeds to ooirtout that tho very fact that the union ot' Einplizeexpres- ses itself thrr.up;h_ the symbol oi' the throne, impels all who care for Em- pire unity to rate the symbol propor- tionally high “and it is due hero to recognize tlie~good feeling, freedom and candor with which thc Prince is discharging his embolus,” continues the News. "He has appreciated the limitations as well as the responsibil- ities and privile_ges`ol’ his office and in it field where deviation ro the right or left would be easy he has kept witlt sure and uninlteriug instinct to the middle course."

Mr. king could not see his way clear to accept the offer.

C-arnegie‘s bequests to llriiish states- men have aroused considerable inter- est here and a certain amount of spec- ulation us to the reasons which prompted them. It ls not known that Mr. Carnegie was ever 'tn intimate friend of Mr. Lloyd George. and it is assumed he was prompted by sympa- thy with the Prernier’s politics and wished to spare him the anxiety of any pecuniary burden. Mr. Lloyd George Is. by no means a '.voi-,tthy man. His premiership carries 110 Hal. ary with it, but as First I.-ir-I of the Treasury he draws $25,000 yearly. His private income, is understood to be very moderate, and as one paper de- clares he has been too busy serving England to maye money for lilmself.

Summerfield Picnic 'A

A Grand Success

The picnic at Summerfield on the

Besides those of the parish who at-

tended thcre were many from Char- lottetown, Summerslde and the sur- rounding country.

it was a beautiful day on an ideal

picnic grounds and all present were afforded opportunity to have all the enjoyment that could be crowded into one day.

The commisarist department des-

erves sprecial mention as the good- stnffs so liberally served by compet- ent waitresses vouch very highly for the ability of the ladies of St. James

Chturch, Summerfield in the culinary ar.

A well stocked refreshment saloon

and also an ice cream booth alleviat- ed any further wants'ot’ “the inner man." . _ The League of the Cross boys con-

ducted the midway and did every. thing in their power to entertain the crowd; and their efforts were crown- ed with success. "

Perhaps the most enjoyable fea-

turn of the affair was the playing of the League of the Cross Band, which was well worth going miles to hear. The -Band gave a long and varied pm. gramme and the beautiful music pro-

duced was appreciated beyond mea. .ure.

The Festival ended- with threg
