six outstanding cows. The young females . are particularly good throughout.

l Dr. Head judging the light horses stated that there were some splen- did horses, but not many shown. The single carriage mare shown ,wou1d be a credit, the Doctor stat- (ed, to any country. It was a pity, he said, that she was being exported from the province.

Mr. J. D. Eadie. judge of the heavy horses stated that some good classy clydes were shown though many were hardly up to standard as regards size and weight. The stallions are particularly lacking in ‘this regard. The mares, however. have some animals among them of great promise, and these, bred to stallions of weight and substance, should produce an excellent strain of draught horses. A draft stallion ‘in the opinion of Mr. Eadie, should weigh at least 20 cwt. to cross with ordinary mares.

Women's Institutes

A most attractive booth is that of-

the Women's Institutes, which is located upstairs on the south side of the main building.

As is fitting, the displays in this booth are of such a nature as to im- press‘ on one the fact that it pays. [frfom every standpoint to buy Island

products, of which many are shown, including preserves, canned goods, flavoring extracts. beverages, etc. as well as some lovely examples of ‘domestic handicraft in thg shape of beautifully designed hooked mats and rugs. A placard prominently displayed asks the pertinent ques- tion: “Do you use these Island pro- ducts?“

THE CENTRAL BEDEQUE FLOUR. MILLS

This firm occupy a booth on thc north side of thc building towards the west side. The feature of their display is a very realistic reproduc- tion of an old time watermill, eq- uipped with an ovérshot wheel. This is shown in action.

The booth itself is trimmed artis- tically with Golden glow, Golden Rod and other flowers of the seas- on. There is a display of packages of whole wheat flour and cereal; also of breads made from this flour.

The Central Bedeque Flour Mills were formerly known as the Robert Wright Mills. They manufacture, in addition to the products mont- ioned above, Island white fio f‘ and ground oatmeal, also crusydg feed. It may be noted that all their pro- ducts arc prepared by thc roller process.

DE LAVAL SEPARATORS

The celebrated Dc Laval Cream separators are shown in a booth in the centre block on the north side. The exhibit is in charge of Mr. J. D. Offer.

As this is thc fiftieth anniversary of the firm. they are this year turning out their separators with many added refinements. The scr- (es is called the "Golden Series’- and in their stand three of these separators arc on display.

They are very beautifully finish- cd in gold enamel with black lin- ing. and are a most attractive ox- hlbit. ‘ As to thc quality of thc D0 Laval separators. suffice it to say that thousands of prizes and medals have been awarded these separators since they made their apllélfflnce fifty years ago. Moreover. butter made from De Laval separated cream has won first prlze at every meeting of the National Butter-mak- ers Associations. with but one ex- ception slnce the first mcctlng in 1892.

the Quai D’Orsay on! Aug. 27.— Premier King Will Sign for Canada and Aust- rali-a.

(Special to the Guardian)

PARIS, Aug. 21—The British Em- pire will iifllx seven signatures to thc renunciation of war treaty which will be ratified at the Quai D'Orsay on August 27, one week from today. Lord Cushendun will sign once for His Majesty as King of the United Kingdom and, second time as Emperor of India.

Premier W. L. MacKenzie King. of Canada, now on his way to Paris aboard the Ile De France, in com- pany with Secretary of State Frank B. Kellogg of the United States, will sign for Canada and Australia. New Zealand and South Africa and the Irish Free State will also afilx their signatures through their rep- resentatives.

There will be only one original which will be deposited in Washing- ton. Signatorlcs will get certified‘ copies. The instrument upon which the diplomatic pen will be used is to be upon a large single sheet of thick paper with the French text on one side and the English on thc other in parallel columns. Lin- guistic experts in the foreign office have been having an absorbing study in thc exact rendering of the treaty into the two languages. The [French text, it is understood, will be. cabled to Washington for approval‘ tlierc, its there have been some slight changes in it from the text submitted to the state department by the French embassy.

The first intention of Becq dc Fouquleres, master of ceremonies of the foreign office, was to engross the text o_f the treaty in beautiful script but so little time now remains that this cannot be done. The present idea is to print on one large folio shcct sufficient for the text of both languages each of which will run (o 800 or 900 words. The official text as proposed by the American gov- ernment in naming the rulers of states which would authorize picni- potentiaries to sign the treaty plac- ed the President of France first and the President of the United States second. The french proposal which the United States accepted, was to use the French names of thc various states in alphabetical order. Under this arrangement, Germany. as al- lemange. will come first. Belgiquc second, Etats-Unis third, France fourth and Grande-Bretagnc fifth.

ROME, Aug. 2l.——Count Mazony, Ambassador to France, will sign the anti-war treaty for Italy, the for- eign office announced.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21. - Sir Austen Chamberlain. British for- eign secretary, who was one of thc negotiators of thc Kellogg anti-war treaty. telegraphed to Secretary Kellogg, prior to his sailing for France on Saturday wishing him

"Please accept on your departure from the United States to sign in Paris the treaty for renunciation of wnr. my best wishes for a safe and enjoyable journey." said Sir Austen. "It will ever be a source of keen- cst regret to me that thc state of my health prevents my being assoc- iated with you and the plenipotent- iaries of other signatory nations in the signature of a treaty which will mark signal advance toward the goal of universal peace. Am confi- dent that the world will owe much to your initiative." --~——-Q-O§—-—-_-

The plot holds ones interest from the beginning until the curtain comes down at the end of ‘the fourth act. In it, o. fast living ar- tist. owing to a clause in his Un- cle's will, marries his secret wom- an-n lady who is much too 300d for hlm~to obtain money. Later on he basely throws her out on the street. But. in the end her mar- riage to the man. loendall Rath- burn, is annulled through the good offices of limiter Meredith. a reporter, whom shc marries.

The parel. of the scrub lady, Der- ry, is taken splendidly by Miss Shorey, who docs some very fine acting in the gripping climax which developes in the third act.

She is well supported by the rest of the company, Mr. Fred Campbell. Mr. Dowling and Miss Altkens in particular playing their parts in a most finished manner.
