others marched in procession to the Hall, the faculty and regents having seats on the platform and the Choral society filling the choir. The entire service was designed to make a lasting impression.

On Monday a banquet. under the auspices of the Federated Alumni took place at which Mr. R. B. Kan- son former Minister at Trade and Commerce, was the guest speaker. Probably the climax of all the pro- ceedings were the closing exercises of the Academy and Commercial College on Tuesday morning, the Uliivelxsity Convocation in the of- ternoon and the Commencement programme of the Ladies’ College or_School for Girls in the evening. Splendid fil'CBl'ilnlillf.‘S were given and inspir lg addresses heard. Lhc speakers being Premier A. A. Dysart, Hon. Dr. Roberts, Minister of Health, President A. 5. Hatchet of St. John's. Newfoundland. and Rev. J. A. MacKeigan, D.D., oi Halifax. NS. The Memorial Hall was crowd- ed on every occasion and is it ally wonder for it was a glorious sight to see those splendid young men and women with all the enthusiasm and glory of youth, ready to go forth to take up their respective tasks in the varied activities of life.

“This is the word that year by

year, Whilst in her place the School is set Everyone of her some must bear And none that hears it dare forget; This they all with a Joyful mind Bear through life like a. torch in

flame,

And falling. fling. to the host behind,

Pill! up! play up! and play the game."

The final event was the annual meeting of the regents, when vari- ous reports are read and considered and financial and other questions discussed. Preliminary action was taken for a due celebration of the Centennial of Mount Allison which takes place in 1940 when steps Wii no doubt: be taken to raise funds for an additional Academy building and for other purposes. It is al. ways customary at a mgent's meet- ing to read a. Memorial of former regents who have passed away in the previous year and on this oc- casion a fitting memorial of Mr. James Paton was presented by Messrs. John F. Whear and Charles H.

Thornas was the third minister to resign hilice Mr. Baldwin re- organized the government after the general election last year. Bir Sam- uel !-ioare, Foreign Secretary, re- signed as a result of the Heave- Laval proposals for the settlement of the Iialo-Ethiopian dispute. and Lord Eustace Percy, Minister with- out portfolio. the so-called "min- ister of thought," resigned because he had too little to do.

The oft-reported cabinet shake- up was believed to have been hastened by Thomas’ departure. A second vacancy in the ministry is expected shortly through the re- tlremont of Viscount Monsell. First lord of the Admiralty.

It had been assumed that Sir Samuel Hoare would then re—entcr the cabinet as First Lord. but it is now being suggested that sir sam- uel may become Secretary for the Domlnions. with Malcolm Mac- Donald going to the Colonial ot- fice. In this case, William Ormsby- Gore. First Commissioner oi Works, would likely be chosen for the Ad- miralty, although in some quarters Ormsby-G-ore was regarded as a likely choice for the ColonLtl__9f_-

Speculation Rife

Political observers. speculating “D031 511' Samuel I-loss-e'e pouible return to the cabinet, assert Italy's success in the Ethiopian adventure has proved the former Foreign Secretary "at far-swine l>f0Dhof.." Primg Minister Baldwin went to 9" a, his official country res- idence. beions the resignation was aaI|I')0l.IIl0€d. He is d to lay plans to bolster the cabinet in order to continue in office at least until after the coronation next year when, it has been frequently pre- dicted, ho will retire.

The downfall od '!'l-iomas in a sense is due to the fact that Lloyds. the great insurance con- cern. acoepts risks Bzainst any- thing. That, according to testimony before the tribunal, enabled two friends of Thornas to make $96,500 by gambling that the government would raise the income and tea taxes. ~

Testimony was given that Thom- as won money by “insuring” against the calling of a general el- ection i.n 1935. It also came out that Alfred Bates. a friend of Thomas. had promised to pay the minister $100,000 for his auto- biography, to be written after his retirement. Most of this sum was paid in advance. going for the purchase of a house at 1"erring-on- sea which Mrs. Thomas was “very keen on."

Emphatic Denial

Appearing before the tribunal, Thomas emphatically denied he had disclosed any of the budget secrets. His conversation on budget day with Sir Alfred Butt, wealthy member of Parliament and one of those who profited by the budget insurance, was about horse-racing, Thomas testified.

The minister's withdrawal from the cabinet brings about further disintegration in the “national" character of the government, inas- much as he was one of the four important members of the Labor government who boiled Labor ranks in 1081 to go into Ramsay Mac- Donald's coalition ministry.

Of the four. only MacDonald now remains. He is Lord President of the Council. Philip Sl‘iO\\'(if.‘ll, now Lord Snoirdcn. quit in 1932: when the general tariff policy of the gov- erliment. was lna.ugui'nted, and Lord Sankey. the Lord Chancellor, was left out in the reshuffle that fol- lowed the election last year.

I m p o r t a n t Discoveries In Royal Society

(By Guy E. Rhoades. Canadian Press Stan’ Writer)

OTTAWA. May 22—Dl'. E. Gor- don Young of Halifax and W. Rob- ert Inman of Summerside, Dulhou- sie University Research workers. re- ported discovery of the composition of salmon egg casing to the Royal Society of Canada. today.

They said that the casing has now been shown to belong to the class of substances known as sclero- protenis ILIKI to be similar in cer- tain ways but not identical with the substances of hair, tortoise shell and feathers.

The iiaiching

The explanation of the way in which hatching occurs has been made clearer by the discovery that under certain clr-cumstanccs this salmon shell can be digested and so can be softened and dissolved through the agency of natural sn- zyrries, chemical as opposed to or- genie ferments.

(Mr. Inmmi referred to above is ii son of Judge Inman, summer- side).

Mcorea. said Dean admitted shooting Poole, who had been lured to the lonely spot by it ruse, as

Poole knelt been his captors.

"I shot him: I thought it was my job, according to our discus- sion." Mccrea said Dean told h‘m. Davis and Dean are employees of the Detroit Public Ligiiting Com- mission. Most of the others hold are factory workers.

Nlnvarre said 34 other members of the orguniivation were being sought as having attended a meet» ing of the “Wolverine Repubfican League" at which the abdiictinn of Poole was planned.

Headquarters of the league. which is not, connected with the repub- lican party. were raided today and a dozen firearms. a large quantity of ammunition, two daggers. and several black robes and hoods. bearing a skull and crcssboncs in- eignis, were confiscated.

"As the story was told me by the men under arrest." Navarre said. "a meeting of some so mem- here at the society was called by Davis the night of May i2. Prior to the meeting I-Ierrhell Gill and Lowell Rushing, relatives of Poole's wife. told Davis Poole had kicked and beaten his wife."

Mrs. Poole. to whom a daudrter was born the day after Poole was slain. denied that Poole had ever beaten or kicked her.

Navarre said some oi’ the men held had expressed fear that thur statemen‘ would lead to reprisals by other em-‘ or the black le- iiloll. which they told him had branches throughout the country. They refused to name other cities in which the organisation is active. toying its motto was "secrecy ai- waya.' he said.
