Ceremony In London Very Brief Ouly One Hitch Occurred. A despatch from London says: The treaty of peaoe between Tur- key and the Balkan allies was sign- ed at St. James' Pa,lac at 12.40 p.m. on Friday. Thanks to the firm action of Sir Edward Grey, the trusted and respected spokesman of the European concert, the Balkan war, after a duration of nearly eight months, was definitely termi- nated by a ceremony lasting exactly one hour. Five copies of the treaty, one for each belligerent State, on plain, printed sheets, with blanks left for the signatures, lay on the polished mahogany table. Sir Ed- ward Grey opened the proceedings by inviting the delegates to sign the treaty, whereupon copies of the treaty were passed from hand to hand by the different delegates for signature as they sat round the long table. The proceedings were busi- nesslike and brisk. The only jar- ring note from the point of view of the Servians and Greeks was the discovery of an annex to the treaty, believed to have been drafted by Bulgarians, proposing that the treaty should come into force with- out further ratification. This an- nex was not signed. I entitled "Gutting Into Parliament and ' After" and us juHiahed by William Briggs. dreaded a moment's pause to look at them. My knees trembled as it alarmed Canada.

Toronto, August 23rd to Sept. 8th, is being distri- buted, and it shows that tho Man- agement have given special atten- tion to the Agricultural department generally, and to the encourage- ment of the smaller exhibitor in particular. In cattle, more money is given to both the beef and dairy classes, and the list has been extended so thai in some classes as many as einht prizos are given. Thus the small breeder with a good animal is prac- tically sure of recouping at least a part of the expense of shipping to Toronto. More money is also given to Hor- ticulture, Floriculture and Poultry. The entire list totals $55,000, and as no prizes are given for Manufac- tures, every dollar of this goes to the products of the home, tho school, the farm and the garden.
