The formal opening of the Exhi- bition took place on the evening of August 16th in the Paton Pavil- ion. Addresses were delivered by His Honor, Lieutenant-Governor George D. DeBlois; Premier, the Honorable Thane A. Campbell, M. A.: Honorable Charles Dunning, Minister of Finance, Ottawa; Mayor P. W. Turner; Honorable W. H. Dennis, Minister of Agricul- ture: and your President.

The speakers stressed the value of the Exhibition, the improve- menis that have been made from year to year, and the splendid co- y operation which everyone has giv- ,en towards it.

Honorable lvir. Dunning in his geloquent address traced the history iof Exhibitions and ‘among other

things said: “I am especially in- terested in fairs, not only because they link us togetheinin the Prov- ince, buirbecause beyond the Prov- ince and across the broad Domin- ion people are gathering together |in what they call "The Fair". But the institution is wider than the Dominion," he said; “in every part of the world where the British flag flies. people gather for purposes similar in that which brings you together. They have been doing it ‘in British countries for more than a thousand years. It is one of the oldest institutions. Many cities in England point with pride to Royal charters granted many hundreds oi years ago giving them permis- sion to hold a. fair.

“Those old ones differed only in degree from the one which we see opening tonight. The fairs gave farmers and artisans an opportun- ity to gather and to show, com-

And Eire To

Confer On TradeAnd Defence

By GEORGE IIAMBLETON Canadian Press Sisii Writer

LONDON, Jan. 12—In Downing Street Monday afternoon represen- tatives of the Governments of the United Kingdom and Eire (form- erly the Irish Free State) will meet around a table in a business- like eflort to end their differences.

Delegates from the United King- dom will be Prime Minister Cham- berlain, Sir John Simon, Chamel- lor of tho Exchequer, Sir Samuel Hoars, Home Secretary, and Mal- colm MacDonald, Secretary of the Dominions. Other ministers will be celled in as subjects 0i their particular concern arLse.

The representatives of Eire will be Eamon do Valera, Prime Min- ister Sean Lemass. minister for industry, Seam McEntee, minister for finance, and James Ray, min- ister cf agriculture.

No formal agenda has been drawn up but the subjects most in view are: settlement of the 1on8 drawn out economic "was" over land annuities, and defence.

The question of partition may also arise. The. new constitution of Erie, while not specifically bar- red, is, it is felt, unlikely to enter prominently the discussions.

The British Government has al- ready made clear that it does not consider the new constitution ap- plicable to Northern Ireland and is content to leave the mutter there.

BELFAST, Northern Ireland, Jen. i2—"If Mr. do Valera points s re- volver at Britain-and at Ulster- he will receive s speedy answer.” the Northern Whig, Conservative. declared today commenting on next Monday's Anglo-Irish conver- sations when partition of Ireland is to be one of the topicsdiscussed.

"Britain is well awn-e of the determination of Northern Ireland to oppose to the utmost the fusion of Ulster with tho south," the newspaper continued.

The Irish News (Nationalist) said that "removal of the artificial barrier between Irishmen and Ir- ighmen in their own country is essential if negotiations between England and Eire are to lead to better understsndiu." -
