[ill] I] HATE DRESS-NEIL- PEHMITTHI Signers of Treaty to Wear Cutaway Coats And Striped Trous- er-s — Germany Will Sign Pact First. PARIS, Aug. 23.—-Simplicity and dignity will mark the proceedings on Monday, when representatives of the nations gather at the Quai d‘- Orsay to sign the Kellogg anti-war treaty. Even ceremonial dress for the great gathering of diplomats has been banned after an exchange of views between Secretary Kellogg, sponsor of the agreement. and Aris- tlde Briand, French Foreign Min- istcr. The signers of the treaty will wear cutaway coats and striped trousers. although those of ambassadorial rank don gold-braided suits and plumed hats. Bince only Lord Cuslienriun, of‘ Great Britain, Count Manzonl. of Italy, and Baron Uch- ida, of Japan, are entitled to pleni- pctentiary full dress at such a cere- mony, it was decided any discrim- ination in splendor might be resent- ed by thc foreign ministers and high commissioners representing other countries. I Gustave Stresemann, German For- cigri Minister, will sign first. Lord Cushendun will leave his seat twice. signing oncc as representative of Great Britain, Northern Ireland and the British, Dominions not repre- sented in the League of Nations, and once for British India.

LONDON, Aug. 23.——An Exchange Telegraph despatch from Coperi - hagen. says that the sheriff of South Greenland, has informed Copenhag- en that an aeroplane was seen fly- ing over Flskenaesset, Sunday, and thence turned to the east. A tele- gram recelved by thc Greenland administration from the sheriff said: “Machine reported absolutely with- out doubt from Fiskenaesset. The whole place as well as Llohionfels observed the machine Sunday rnom-= ing at 10.30. coming high from north northwest and descending over Fl iienacsse‘. "The crew were clearly seen look- ing over the area through binocu- lars. Afterwards the machine turn- ed eastward. The Greenlandeis‘ statements are absolutel, trust- worthy, and they described the sounds of the engine and give the national marks on the machine. The telegram received from the shcrifl’ at 4.40 p.m., added that two motor boats would be sent out lm-i mediately to resume search for the missing airmen in view of the new information available.” Italian Consul is Slightly Wounded (Canadian Press.)

Since the famous clock room only holds 300. the list has been selected with extraordinary care. ‘ Premier Poincare will sit in the special diplomatic box between My- ron T. Herrick. United States Am- bassador to France, and William T. Cosgrave, president of the Irish Free State executive council. The entire ceremony will progress under powerful projectors playing through the rear doors, enabling 50 cameramen and four modern picture machines to register the slightest gestures. An application for the privilege of making talking movies and to broadcast the affair by radio was rejected as out of harmony with the solemn spirit oi’ the occasion. Speeches will be curtailed and simple. Brland will make a welcom- ing address and Kellogg will reply briefly. Then the signing will begin. A magnificent pen created by a famous Parisian jeweler has been offered for the occasion. Kellogg also will be presented a gold pen by the city of Havre and other famous" or costly pens have been suggested. What one will be used has not been decided. ‘Dinner at. the Embassy on Sunday will include d cgates from foreign nations, Frenc officials and their wives. » The formal dinner to be given by the Quai D’Orsay on’ Monday also will include women. It is believed ‘Frau Stresemann, Countess Menz- oni. Mme. Hymans and Mrs. Kellogg will be the‘ only wives of treaty sign- ers to come to Paris. " The omb has been besieged by hundreds of applications for seats cans now in Europe, most of whom will be disappointed. One prominent writer on economics. who is a pro- fessor at an eastern university, threatened to carry the matter to Congress when he was refused an invitation. The cruiser Detroit has arrived at Havre. ready to carry Kellogg to Ireland aft.er the cere- mony. Kellogg will repay the re- cent visit made by Cosgrave to the United States. Aftor leaving Dub- lin, Kellogg will visit England and return to the United States probab- ly on September 4._ Cockroaches Have Redeeming Feature wAsnmo-rou, n. c., Aug. asi- Thc research bureau of the de- partment of agriculture, which issue helpful bulletins to all who care to read them. oocasionaly varies the businesslike monotony of their style with sly humor.

ZZi-The Provincial Government has passed a. law that no muskrats are lo be trapped for a period of at least one year in Ontario. This step has been found necessary as a u nsequ ice or tremendous drain upon our wild fur-bearing animals due to the in- creasing popularity of furs for both winter and summer wear. The uniform scarceness of wild furbearing animals is resulting in the development of a new industry. that of the fur farmer. The pioneer in this field was the breeder of silver-black foxes, but the large number of muskrais used by the paltry trade, and the high prices that today can be obtained for their skins, are making this also a very desirable animal to raise in captiv- lW- . Swampy land ,.fittcd by nature for little else. so long as it has an abundance of bulrushes and cat- talls, upon the roots of which the muskrats feed, is best suited to it. Fur farming is following just as naturally as stock raising followed the demand _for regular, stosdy supplies of meat. l-el-i- 1, c Au Eucieuz ACHELOR is A boox OFVANKY toMruafal-‘f SuRRounoao BY WOMEN TORONTO, Aug. moderate to fresh easterly fair and warm. proceeds rcoom mend methods for ridding buildings of both puts. “Commercial sodium fluoride. a powder easily obtainable lg about the inst for the purpose, 10.10 p.111.
