The Theatres
THE KING S Hotel

Randolph Gray, who will be seen
here this season with the Grand Stock
Co., tells a yarn about a vaudevilian
which Is worth repeating.
A vaudeville actress accompanied by
her colored maid came to Toronto for
a weeks engagement and stopped at
the King Edward hotel, while the maid
secured lodging for herself in a small
rooming house near the theatre. In
looking about for a place to eat the
latter made inquiry of Ernie, the prop
erty man, who directed her to res
taurant where the color line was not
closely drawn. This important mat
ter being attended to, she asked the
way to the hotel where her mistress
was stopping, producing a slip of pa
per or which was written the name of
the King Edward. 1t was obvious she
could not read. but in order to prove
she was not altogether ignorant she
repeated after Ernie had obliged with
directions, "Oh, yes, King Edward, he's
the king of England, aint he?"
The late king of England" correct
ed Ernie. King Edward died about
ten years ago?"
"oh," replied the maid, Il didn't
know that; who's running the place
now?"

MAYVHLE NORMAL

The summer school for 1918 closed
this week, Wednesday, with almost
every summer school student present
until the end. There have been sew
eral features that have helped in
making this season particularly pleas
ant and this continuous attendance is
one that makes it satisfactory The
week of chautauqua gave the students
an opportunity not heretofore offered
and several lectures occurring during
the term gave further inspiration to
the students. Examinations for teach
ers' certificates were held on Thurs
day and Friday at the normal building.
In giving the names of those who
had entertained for Miss Butterfield

Mrs. Travis and Mrs. Hillyer were not

in the auditorium on Saturday even

picious that you DO not belong to this Juris-

"a rose by any other name would nell

impression that you are anti-Danish, al
though you would have it believed to
the contrary when it suits your purpose;
your whole career has demonstrated that,

Barbados, February 24th-Her Highness
Princess Marie Louise of Schlt swig-Hol-
stein landed at 10 20 q. m, after being
greeted enthusiastically by an enormous
crowd on the banks of the Careenage. As
sembled to meet her were members of the
Legislative Council, the Officials, the Clergy
and representatives Of the Planting Com
munity and of Commerce. The Governor
explained to her Highness that, in order TO
preserve the distinctive character of the
Intercolonial Needlework Exhibition, it had
been arranged hat the ladies of the Island
should wait at the Exhibition in order to
receive her Highness, and that consequently
none we're present at the occasion of her
landing. He explained how intensely graft
flying it was to the loyal and ancient colony
of Barbados that Her Highness should first
set foot on West Indian soil by landing in
this island, which latter was thereby made
the gate to the West Indies. On behalf of
all present he hoped than when Her High
ness had passed that gate she should find
health, amusement and interest.
At 11.30 a. m. Her Highness opened the
Exhibition and manifested the greatest in
interest Ill the specimens of work. An adj
dress was delivered by His Lordship the
Bishop of Barbados and the Windward Is
lands, on behalf of the organizers of the
Exhibition, thanking Her Highness for her
gYaciousuess in opening the Exhibition.
Her Highnees, before leaving the Assem-
bly, Room, made q most impressive speech,
every word of which was distinctly heard
throughout the loyal assemblage. The speech
was received with enthusiasm, and the latter
became indescribable when Her Highuess,
making a pause, announced that she had
been charged by His Majesty the King to
deliver a message to the West Indian Co
lonies. The message was: "The King has
charged me with a message to you. He
desires me to express to you, and through
you to all inhabitants of his West Indian
dominicns, the interest which he takes in
their welfare. He has watched their pro-
gress with sympathy, and it has been a
great satisfaction to him to see that Of re-
cent years the British West Indies have re-
covered from the period of depression, which
they met with so much patience and fortl-
tude. His Majesty has noted with pleasure
tie many signs of permanence in that re-
covery, ard looks forward conf lently to a

One of the latest inventions in
the line of automobiles, is the de-
vice for pulling motor cars on to
solid ground. When their rear
wheels have sunk into mud holes
or deep mud and the car cannot
be moved by its own power, is
where the appliance is used, one
end attached to the front of the
rear wheel and when the motor is
started, the device, which re-.
sembles a large razor strop. is
dragged under the wheel. The
loose end of the appliance is car
ried forward and fastened to a
stake in the ground. Upon start.
ing the mote r the second time, the
car is quickly drawn out of the
mud and on to solid ground.

With Glass

Coating wood with an imperish-
able surface Of granulated glass
is late method of preservation,
tried out with success in England.
The deposited granules are rolled
down to any desired fneness. and
the surface of the glass is then
painted or enameled to the desired
polish.
The process may be applied to
othor su bstanc6s and has been used
on the cylinders of locomotives
for the purpose of preventing
erosion and heat radiation. The
glass coating lasts as long as the
metal, and corr rrosion is absolutely
impossible.
