But a look of mingled dismay and reproach on the lady's fate kept them .standing. Then the truth dawned. The lady of the house didn't want them to sit in the .comfortable chairs. She was herding them politely toward the kitchen. Those comfortable chairs were beautifully upholstered, and free from any stain.

The present prospect Is that that market will be Eastern Canada. The government has enlisted the advice of its own Their opinion is of importance mainly because it indicates the proposition around which the pipelines battle of the present session will be waged- The advocates of gas export are going to have to hatllo against government policy, rather than have it on their side. Unquestionably, If the experts had decided ths oilier way, the champions of the all-C'unadiun route wouldn't have taken their 1 teal NAVY RUM i n 3, verdict lying down. They would have put on .ne same sort of a crusade that the advocates of export now will wage. The experts who have been looVIng into the Albertan natural gas problem are mostly highly qualified personnel in the Federal Department of Mines. They are said to have reported to the ! government that Alberta gas can be sold as cheaply In the Ontario fund Montreal markets as United ; States natural gas lmiorted from FINANCE MINISTER ABBOTT reviews' the Bank Act which is up for its regular 10-year revision in the first session of the 22nd Parliament which opened early this month.

But the chairs were never meant to be sat in. and the room was never meant to be lived in. The room was a kind of domestic museum, kept to impress people with the wealth, good taste and housekeeping skill of tne lady who controlled it. So into the kitchen the visitors went, and perched on hard wooden seats. Of course the kitchen was spotless, too. Floor, stove and sink were pol-i.-lud to a high gloss. Every saucepan, every knife, foric and spoon was put away wh-'ie it belonged. The visitors felt themselves to be the only objects out of place in that exemplary house. Sooner or. later the hostess would get a broom and sweep them into the garbage can, or el.se absent mindedly rub them tlown. wit.i furniture polish. That liou.se was hot a lone specimen. There are many more like it. Sometimes you can identify such a house by the shoes at the doorstep. The lady cf the place, like the priestess of an Oriental temple, makes people remove their shoes before they enter to worship at her domestic shrine. One day we will hear of a lady who has carried housekeeping zeal to its logical end. and moved the family out of the hcuse into a kennel In the yard, keeping the house itself as a showplace.

Naturally the association's efforts will lie of -;itle avail unless its candidates are elected. But the Evidence will be there that voters of this city intend j;o do their utmost to ensure that their affairs are '.handled in a responsible manner. An attitude of Avatchfulness is being established which, with the passage of time, is certain to make itself felt in breedings of the council chamber. 'X!

Good attendance at the meeting tonight will mean additional assurance that the agreement will be translated into action. Introducing Santa Claus I OOKING at Christmas with the charitable L thought that they can make it a happier occasion for some children, members of the Kinsmen Club are once more getting ready for their Party Pack campaign. ' As they offer their packs for sale, it is wort,h remembering that through their efforts Santa Claus will become a very real person for some families who otherwise might not make his acquaintance. It is to be noted that this year the Kinsmen Kiddies' Christmas Party has been discontinued in favor of giving pleasure to youngsters on a' more selective basis. The change seems like a wise one. A few extra little favors will 'not be missed by most children, but a special surprise where it is most deserved will certainly be appreciated. The party at Miller Bay hospital will go on 3 before, much to the joy of the children there. So buy a Party Pack and make some little heart beat more quickly this Christmas. planning ages.
