(Special to the Guardian)

TORONTO, Feb. t-The first ecs- sion bi the slghrssiiin legislature bi Ontario which opens tomorrow will be unique. It will be an experiment, Government officials usually placid and without worry when the social function of the opening 0i the house 1:1 performed, probably will be ner- vous for fear that the voice that the butwn releases will not be the voice that it should be.

Tomorrow's opening will be done by a, button, a lever and a set of tubes. .'I'he new broadcasting system installed in the Legislative Cham- ber_ and not completed imtil today is the cause of the worry. The operator will have to regulate each voice as it floats out to the waiting throng, but. sonic Queens Park officials are wondllin; iviiet tho voices will sound ,like until the adiiistmentl l-fe made. lmagiriex the Liﬂlichlnt» Governors -voic_e, res" the s-peach from the thrrlze in a high lsisctw.
