C. N. Blssett. Halifax. was elected president; R. 5. Anderson. Toronto. first vice-president; and W. R. Scott. Toronto. secretary- treasurer. An executive committee will consist of representatives of member companies in variousparts of Canada.

The annnunremc-nt of the for- mation of the new assui-iatinii said it will'not take the place ot pros- cnt provincial organizations. butis intended to co-ordinate their act- ix-ities,

Once morn he stopped to listen. "Sounds like those Fox cousins. I wonder what they are fighting a- bout." he muttered and went on.
