“Again the scene is chantrod-
Thmulh the kindness of the Can- adian Hilh Commissioner i got ad- mission to the I-louse of Commons and to o seat in that select portion known as the distinguished stronti- ers gallery. There I sat for sev-
_sessionl looking down up0f\ w tellin the House at itB
But the gentleman in long tailed coat and while tio in charge of the gallery come over to whisper that not even distinguished struiigcrs were permitted to use pencil and paper ill the British llouse of Coin- mons. So I had to trust to mem- cry.
"l noticed the members occasion
ally glancing up in my direction to see who tho dlstiiuzuisiied strang- er might happen to tie. I also cauglit zi looli from Lady Astor- also glancing up-~a|id I concluded that curiosity as u eliai‘act.ci'lstic of human nature was not c.on\`lued to the western shores ol' the At- lantic. .

And when he moves his legs as lie is api. to do thc aullioritlcs get cou- l`us'ed and lutiihlc on the floor and his efforts to lteop track of his uu- tlioritios are terribly oniliarrassiiig.
“l lind read some of the speech-

PREMIER itll BE ELEC-lIj.fll '_' I """"" IN PRINBE CUUNW SEAT
(Special to The Gifardianl
Dec. 10.- It is quite Mackenzie King will
seek re-election in a constituency outside of Ontario. Prince riding seems to be the place- where the Premier wi ll try his chance. He al- ready represented that riding in the past) and, , it is said that he would surely be elected in
master.
"And there was Lloyd George
with his big head and broad shoul- ders and slender underpinning. When he walked across the floor he wobblcil-as the duck wobblos. He is usually silent and moreso. Once he was regarded as the great ost man in England--yes the great- est that ever had been in England.
»>ln the dark days of the war when
the allies were fighting with their backs to the wall, he never lost courase or cciil'ldcnce.iii ultimate success. And lie it was who ln- spired the nation with his courage and confidence. He it was when returning t`roni the peace confer- ence at Versailles, the king in per- son went down to Victoria station to meet and congratulate-and when lie entered the Chamber the Commons rose on masse to wel- come and to cheer him. It was upon him that 50 cities of thetna- tioii vied with to shower the free- dom of their cities. After the war he dissolved the House and ap- pealed to the people for a renew- al of their confidence. The people expressed that confidence by ii tremendous majority oi votes. His control over the House and the Iiritlsh electorate was manifestly ostublislied forever.
Yet there lic sits now in the

enter the grountls and climb to the iiialiest. point-to the top of the stadium and look around. The statliiiin itself-i',lie playground of the Exposition is built of concrete -it is about 400 yards ln diameter and capable oi' seating accommo- dation for 125,000 spectators. Down in the centre of the enclosure are i'oiir rings similar to what yoti see in tho circus. In these rlnils
,the host athletes of the Empire

Your eye rests on the Dominion Exhibition buildings, each made of white stucco. each fashioned nc- cordlng to the latest style of ar- ciiltccturo in the several Domin- ions-eacli vieing with each other in beauty-nround the buildings a mass of flowers and lovellness.

The Railway system is also repre- sented on the walls. The trains also are in motion. You see the smoke puffing from the cn- glne. You follow the train across the pralries through the grain fields, Now it strikes the Rock- ies and begins the long climb. Now it crosses the summit and speeds away to the Pacific.
“The transport system is one of
,tho main products of Canada. In the Australian building the main iexlilblt is wool, A pile 20 it. high at the door-a man standing on the top in the act of shearing a ishoep.
