A sumptuous wedding supper was then served, to which all did ample justice. The evening was spent in singing and dancing for which Mr. McKay and Mr. D. Horton rendered violin and banjo music.

FAMOUS THEATRE uas CELE- BRATION

(Canadian Press)

MEININCYLN, Germany, Jan. 2- ihe Court Theatre, cradle of mod ;rn German dramatlcs, will cele- brate its centennial anniversan his month.

In the course of its long lll5t0r]. .t produced one of the world's mos‘ famous theatrical troupes~ “The Meinlnger“—and therewith restor- ed dramatic art from trlvlality to significance. The story of the Meln inger ancl the Court Theatre is one of rise from obscurity to internat- ional fame.

In the first decades of its exis- tence, the new theatre existed without stirring a ripple of artis- tic commotion. It was leased to road companies until dashing Duke George of Melningen, later known to the world as "Duke of ‘he Theatre" came into power.

In 1873, horrifying the social elite of that period, he married an actress, Ellen Franz, and together with her and Ludwig Chronck set to work in the theatre. Duke George himself designed most of the settings and costumes and in- sisted that historical authenticity in decoration, as well as absolute fidelity to text be adhered to.

Within the next seventeen years the Meininger played in Germany, Great Britain, Austria, Switzer- land United States, Russia. and Holland, giving 2,591 performances‘ in 36 cities to packed houses.

The original Court Theatre was destroyed by fire and replaced-by, another in 190D. The commcmora- ' tive exercises will be held there.

Gandhi Asking For More Trouble

I i (By James A. Mills, Associated Prela Staff Correspondent) BOMBAY, India, Jan. 2.—(A.P.)— | Mahatma Gandhi has issued one more warning to his people to be ready to resume the civil disobedi-

cnoe campaign, and packed up his ‘ All" lhallw I ialil - collection of loin cloths and spin- ‘ }l|m'§|,,§,‘,:w__l 63%| 0W‘: 65% . 1

ning wheels in preparation for

another term in Jail.

Q The Congress Party working com-

mittee meanwhile addressed an ap- peal to merchants to abandon their ‘trade in foreign cloth and cooperate ,with the Congress. at the same time iasking all Indians to make only the |very minimum use of the govern- [ment railroads, post ofllces and oth- er bureaus. l ‘The Mahatma issued a statement Iof his own "on the eve of the new ordeal to which India has been sum- moned," inviting all free peoples to study the progress of the civil dis- obedience campaign as a possible

‘effective moral equivalent for war." ‘

His impending imprisonment or de- portatlon-the Viceroy, Lord Wil- llngdon, made it clear yesterday that

the Government will deal firmly , ,1 with leaders of any subversive‘

movement-failed to disturb Gand- hi’s poise.

“If I go to jail it will be a sat- isfaction to know that I am getting ‘free board from the state,” lie said. |“I am used to prison and if I go there again it will be a marvelous opportunity for quiet reflection, meditation, spinning and reading."

In the light of lower commodity prices and general slack- ening of activity, the maintenance of |total assets at such a. high level lshould be regarded as a. remarkably good showing. In keeping with its ‘policy the Bank's liquid position, as ‘usual, is a strong one, liquid assets totalling $348,630,551, or over 48% of liabilities to the public. The princi- pal accounts included among them !are cash items of $150,286,891; Dom- ‘inion and Provincial Government [securities of $85,473,058 and Canad- ian Municipal and British foreign ‘and colonial public securities of 124,641,816.
