Values were inclined to ease slight- ly in less active dealings on the local stock exchangeiin today's session of trading. The day was lacking in any particular developments with a mar- ket significance, but generally ahout the street there was encountered a more cheerful attitude, as events shaped themselves for a resnmpqon of normal activity in the financial life of the United suites. a gain in wheat was a bright spot in the day's markets, while n firmer tone in other of the commodity mirrkvts of late has provided n encouraging background for sentiment.

(Canadian Press)

MONTREAL, March iL-The Can- adian Dollar has advanced over two cents in gold value in the past two days. This conclusion was reached by financial experts at the close of foreign exchanges here today. The French franc, which has a con- stant gold value of 3.018 cents, has been used here as a basis cf calcul- ation since the United States Bank- ing Holiday has made it impossible to get American dollar quotations.

Since Tuesday the franc has de- clined steadily from 4.80 to today's

at 4.72 but soon lost ground touch_ lng 4.88 at mid-day. It recovered somewhat in the afternoon to close at 4.70 throughout most of the clay sterling was steady at yesterday's closing quotations at $0.13. It. clos- ed at that figure.

A sharp upward trend in the Can- adian dollar has been in evidence since the Banking Holiday went in- to eflect across the border. 'I‘he movement has been attributed here not only to European confidence in the Dominica's currency, but to a new tendency in International Trade. Heretofore European im- porters have made payment for Canadian goods through the med- ium of the pound or the American dollar. During the past few days prices of Canadian goods have been quoted in Canadian dollars and doi- lar credits have accordingly been in demand on the Continent.

Fifteen Yea rs To Deliver

AMHERST, N. S., March 9 —(By The Canadian Press)- Back in 1918, Just. before the close of the Great War, Troop- er F. E. Wiibahd, then station- ed in Morestleld, England, mail- ed a letter to‘ his father in Am- herst. Today the letter, with the son's photogr ‘, arrived at. the home of E. M. Wil- band, his father. A second- hand dealer ln Amherst, while rummaging through a pile of old magazines, came across the letter and forwarded it to Mr. Wllbsaad. How it came to be among the magazines is a. mystery. It. had never been delivered to the father.

HOCKEY

A very exciting game of hockey W88 staked at the Forum on Satur- day night between the Swissvele "upper and lower" ranches, the game was well fought, and the lower ranch won by the score of 6 to 4.

The game was slow until the ten minute mark when Dupesquler broke through and put his team one up. MacCarron evened it up a few minutes later. At the nine- teen minute mark Jimmy Mac- Phee, towering defence man of the upper ranch, broke away split the defence and gave coville no chance to save. Arsenault and Du- Pasquier finished the scorin! for the upper ranch, McCai-ron and Gard scored two more each for the lower ranch.

Jmmy MacPhee hard hitting dcfenceman was the outstanding player of the night, he poke check- ed, bodychecked, backchecked, and

every other kind of checking that an ordinary defenceman could do. “Well" MacNeill and the big dc- fenceman Jimmy MecPhee rough- ed things up A considerable, Mac- Phee got a major penalty-

If the Abegweit nockey club wants a. good defenceman for next season they want to get in touch with this whirlwind. spectators who watche‘ the game say Jimmy would pair up good with "chins" Johnson or "King" Clancy.

“So Big” Is A Triumph 0f Movie Making

Barbara stanwyck at her best- that's the first summary of "So Big" which opened at the Prince Edward yesterday. ,

But it is not a complete summary, It is not fair to leave out the other members of the cast-George Brent, Bette Davis, Dorothy Peterson, Al- lan Hale, and the rest of the sterl-

ing players. And adorable little Dickie Moore. In "So Big" the Prince Edward

are presenting a screen version of Edna Ferbers greatest hovel. The story of Selina. Poake, dramatic and utterly human, is told as Edna Fer- ber conceived it; the autospncrc is that of the hook itself, the char- acters of the author's imagination have taken on flesh and blood. “So Big" is a triumph, no less.
