Saturday was Apple Day in the Province, when the Boy Scouts of Charlottetown, Summerside, Alber- ton, Borden and Montague were early astir selling Island red, juicy Macintosh apples tp raise funds for the work of the individual troops. As Boy Scouts never beg, the As- sociation bought the grult from Is- land growers at the ordinary whole- sale price and resold at 5 cents or more per apple, according to the

pocket or generosity oi the purchas- er. The city was divided into sec- tions, aild each oi the eight troops were allotted‘ one which they had to comb until 11 a. m. After that the whole city was open to each and every troop, and than the scramble began to cover any home or householder that might have been previously missed. The cam- paign was well organised, under the

direction oi President L. D. Murray and Provincial Commissioner J. J. Morris. At three o'clock work was piped down, and those interested in

the Auction Sale oi Boy Scout Apple Number one proceeded to the Can- adian National Hotel to see who

would be the lucky owner as the re- sult oi the Auction. Tile Associa-

tion was fortunate in obtaining the services oi Mrs. Allan B. Cosh, who has for many years been interested in scouting. as honorary auctioneer

and she discharged the duties ad- mlrably. Boy Scout Apple Number

One was briskly bid ior, and ultim-

ately was knocked down to His lion- our Governor DeBIols for the handsome sum of $50. His Honour is not only the Provincial Patron oi

most enthusiastic active supporters,

attending meetings from time to time and following their progress with the keenest interest. This is the second year in whim ne ha: become possessor oi the Boy Scout Champion Apple. Other twelve up-

highest bidders for the other ap- ples were Mrs. Mould, Mr. W. R.

Murray. The sum realized was $81 for 13 apples.

OTTAWA, Nov. 17—Making probably the most exten- sive revision of the Canadian tariff structure since its in,- ccption the Canada-United States trade agreement signed in Washington Friday and published here tonight opens tile way to wider exchange of a great volume of United- States commodities for Canadian products, chiefly of the

forest, farm and sea.

Published simultaneously in Washington and Ottawa," the long-sought agreement opens a broader market in United States for Canadian lumber, a variety of farm and dairy products, live cattle, fish, some minerals, all types

of whiskey and some manufactured goods.

Reductions

range up to tile full 50 percent which President Roosevelt

was empowered to give.

All Canadian commodities now on the free list in the United States will remain there for the life of the treaty which runs three yaars as

from Jill. 1, 1936.

Each cnunlry gives the other most favored ‘nation treatment-that is. each country undertakes to give the other as low tariff rates aa are accorded to any other foreign country. This forms the hnsis of the

agreement.

Pruervaticn intact of the Ottawa Empire Trade Agreements was a feature of the treaty, the moat favored nation clause having no relation to the preference accorded by Canada to Empire countries. Thlrwaa also true of customs rates granted by United States to Cuba and other of its

Early in 1933, soon after Pre- sident Roosevelt assumed office, Rt. Hon. R. B. Bennett, then Prime Minister, visited Washing- ton and discussed the possibilities of increased trade. The question has been a live issue ever since.

Eflzabeth had given her subjects security and freedom, and here was a rebirth of the love of life expressed to a great extent in music. The narrow crooked streets were filled with ballad singers and street vendors whose musical cries, often very beautiful, have bsen used as themes by many composers.
