CANADIANS OBSERVE
GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY
Confederation of Provinces Extolled
at Banquet in Shoreham Hotel.

Exercises throughout the day COM
memorative of the golden anniversary
Of the confederation OF the Canadian
provinces ana the establishment OF
the Dominion were brought to a fit,
ting climax last evening by a ban
quet at the Shoreham Hotel in honor
of DR.. Henry n. Ami, a representa-
tive of Canada in the National Cap
itaI.
Representatives from three nations
France. Great Britain and the United
States, were present, and the flags
Of these nations were entwined in
the center OF the banquet table.
In answer to a toast, DIR. Ami gave
a most appropriate simile when he
remarked that to his mind the three
aforenamed nations typified to him
granite. the strongest rock in the
world"
There are three essential elements
in granite each one of which has
glowing qualities and each of which,
to my mind. is representative of one
of these three nations. Mica. the first
element, represents France because OF
Its brilliancy; quartz, the chief quality
Of which is grit, is representative OF
Great Britain and feldspar. an impor-
tant and composite element, repre-
sents America, for 1t is very useful,
interesting and absorbing"
DR.. Ami provoked much applause
when he expressed the fervent wish
that these three nations might always
stand together. mutually pursuing
peace, progress ana prosperity"
