the Hon.Sydney Fisher, Minister of Agriculture; Mr.R.L.Borden, Leader of the Opposition in the Federal Parliament, and Mr.F.D.Monk, all of whom delivered addresses.At such a function, and with such well known statesmen, one naturally looked for speeches breathing an Imperial fervor, and in this the 400 or 500 present were not disappointed.The Imperial note was introduced by Mr.R.C.Wilkins, Treasurer, who, in proposing the toast of \u201cThe Parliament of Canada,\u201d said, in part: \u201cThere are 16,000 commercial travellers in Canada, and did it ever occur to the members of Parliament that owing to the peculiar nature of their avocations, probably 50 per cent.of the number are disfranchised at every election?Would it not be possible to introduce legislation whereby they could in some way register their votes, although absent from the constituency in which they have a right to vote / Gentlemen, I commend this to your serious consideration.\u201c Another point on which I believe the majority of thinking men in Canada are to-day agreed is, that the time has arrived when the Parliament of Canada should unfurl the broad banner of Imperial Britain, and utter in no uncertain manner its belief y 0 1e \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 me + cm = em _ lin the British Empire, its willingness to take an important part in the furtherance of the great Imperial idea, in shaping the destinies of this wonderful Empire, in which may be grown and made everything that man requires\u2014to eat, drink, wear and admire\u2014sothat it may be possible for the Canadian commercial travellers to do business all over the greatest departmental store the world has ever known, the British Empire unlimited.\u201cThe Parliament of Canada should put a quietus on those men in the old land who are trying to make the people believe that we are Imperialists only because we want a preference in their market.\u201cWe are Britons of a broader type.We claim by right of heritage equal citizenship in Canada, South Africa, Australia, or within the sound of Bow Bells in London, and we are anxious to see the Empire flourish and grow stronger in every part.\u201cSir, if wise statesmen welded together the scattered provinces and territories of this Dominion into one compact confederation, who shall say that Canada has not now statesmen who can grapple with this greater question of a greater Britain?\u201c Each sister state self governing at home, and each with a voice in the Imperial Council of the Empire.\u201c This Empire that acknowledges one sovereign and one flag.\u201cThe flag that flies in perpetual daylight, the sun-kissed banner of Britain.\u201d TTL N ff or (TOO dll] \\ » 7 A OFFICERS FOR THE YEAR 1906 OF THE DOMINION COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS\u2019 ASSOCIATION.MR.H.W., WADSWORTH, Secretary of the Dominion Commercial Travellers\u2019 Association.Mr.Wadsworth has filled the position of secretary of the Association for the past twenty years.He is its only permanent officer.MR.R.C.WILKINS, Treasurer of the Dominion Commercial Travellers\u2019 Association.Mr.Wilkins was connected with the Board of Directors of the Association for two years.He is a well known Montreal manufacturer.The Laying of the Corner Stone of the Royal Scots Armory by Sir Frederick Borden \\ THE REV.J.EDGAR HILL, chaplain of the regiment, offering up the opening prayer from a prayer desk (Photographed for THE STANDARD.) composed of the regimental drums.~ hw a workman SIR FREDERICK BORDEN, with trowel in hand, declaring to the spectators that the stone has been ¢ well and truly laid.\u201d The stone has just been lowered upon the mortar spread by Sir Frederick, and will easily be recognized in the illustration from the fact that (Photographed for THE STANDARD).stands beside it.A DETACHMENT OF THE REGIMENT which acted as a of Militia, who officiated at the ceremony, guard of honor to Sir Frederick Borden, Minister (Photographed for THE STANDARD.) ?- a a SO CHRISTMAS DAY AT THE OLD BREWERY MISSION, ONE OF THE LEADING CHARITIES OF MONTREAL.\u2014A crowd of men waiting to be admitted to the hall where the Christmas dinner is to be served.(Photographed for THE STANDARD.) - N CHRISTMAS DAY over five hundred homeless men and boys were the guests of the management of the Old Brewery Mission at a typical Christmas Day dinner.The = scene at the tables was a sad one in many respects, and yet it had its bright side, too.It was pleasant to witness the satisfied smiles chase the wrinkles of care and worry and heartache from the face; pleasant to hear the heart-felt \u201cthank you\u201d as the men retired from the hall : pleasant to know that something had been done to make the lot of a few of the unfortunate a little brighter and happier.The result abundantly justified the trouble and expense of the undertaking.116,410 the evening the mothers and children were the guests of the management at a Christmas tree entertainment.Warm and useful garments, toys, candies and other pretty gifts were dispensed, and a right merry time was passed.The question now is: Will the public of Montreal, which has in the past so generously helped this work, enable the workers of the Old Brewery Mission to accomplish more in the future than in the past ?Willing hands and hearts are waiting to do the work.COLLAPSE OF AN ENGLISH THEATRE.HAVOC WROUGHT BY THE RECENT DISASTER AT CHARING CROSS STATION, LONDON\u2014A vivid picture of the wrecked Playhouse Theatre, a structure which was being rebuilt for Mr.Cyril Maude, and in which the largest loss of life occurred.Copyright ¢ Illustrations Bureau,\u201d London and New York.pT 08 gg So BD ce EME BY He Te vib, salt = = 0 ME 2 THE STANDARD, MONTREAL, CANADA.sion of the Christmas Day guests.ated with holly and evergreen.festoons of greenery and flags.were enjoyed by all.BEFORE THE CHRISTMAS FEAST.\u2014The tables in the hall of the Old Bre wery Mission prior to the adinis- placed lengthwise of the hall in which the Gospel services are held each week, and were nicely decor- The walls and ceilings, too, were brightened by the addition of The scene in the w hall after the entrance of the guests was a spirited \u2014 : + one, and, it is safe to say, that the good things The cost of the dinner was defrayed by the friends of the Mission, which is one of the most deserving of the many splendid charities in the commercial metropolis of Canada.(Photographed for THE STANDARD.)

\u2018Starving Unemployed in the Metropolis of Great Britain ONDON TO-DAY is confronted by the most unusual situation that has ever developed in the course of a very long history.Eight hundred thousand men, women and children are out of work and have no money to provide themselves with food or clothing.Many are homeless.Incredible as it may seem, nearly one-sixth of the population of the greatest, wealthiest city in the world is on the very brink of starvation.These people do not know which way to turn for work, for there is no work to be had.The King and Queen, the officials of the city government and the rich and generous of the United Kingdom are doing everything in their power to provide the bare necessities of life for this vast army of unemployed.What they do is not sufficient, and the hungry are marching daily through the streets of the city for the purpose of showing how deplorably bad their condition really is.Great processions of women, many of them mothers with little babes in their arms, have joined in these processiors, and banners have been carried bearing devices threatening all sorts of dire things if work be not provided.Of the more than two hundred thousand unemployed men of London, one-half are skilled mechanics, this seeming to prove that there is something wrong with the industrial condition in the metropolis, that the supply of the best labor in the nation is far in excess of the demand.That conditions are growing worse, the fact that the army of unemployed men is increasing with additions of two thousand daily, grimly attests.Hungry men know no reason\u2014no law.So the myriads of enforcedly idle men have been led to listen to demagogues who have made the most of their opportunities, and to-day they blame the Government, scoff the efforts of their charitable Queen, and have even LONDON\u2019S UNEMPLOYED.Heartbroken and weary after the daily unsuccessful tramp for work.= Copyright ¢ Illustrations

Mary have made warm protecting garments for the ill clad, and by so doing have enlisted the efforts of hundreds of noble youths and maidens in the same employment.In the peoples hour of need their constitutional rulers have shown themselves their friends indeed.With magnificent indifference to the taunts and jeers of the wretched poor of London, the work of charity is proceeding and temporizing as much as may be the pinching want of the cold winter.Britain\u2019s Queen, Alexandra, has risen to a full realization of the gravity of the situation, seemingly more promptly than any other.Not content with starting her fund for the unemployed, she has directed the opening of emergency labor yards for the idle, where, for a couple of hours\u2019 work at sawing wood, men may secure nourishing food.Her example is being followed by others, and a mighty concentrated effort is being made to alleviate the sufferings of the hundreds of thousands, and to afford some little healthy employment by way of compensation on the part of those who are too proud to live by mere charity.Not since 1886 has London been menaced as it is to-day.Then, a mob, springing up from the four quarters of the wonderful city, tore from its hiding places through the streets and, incited to fury by incendiary speeches, swept through the wealthy West End and invaded Mayfair itself.It was a lesson that London recovered from but slowly and most painfully.That was nearly twenty years ago.Gradually those terrifying days have been forgotten or the memory has been lulled by sedatives.But there has been an awakening.The dangers of a vast population of idle men and women, with children pinched and wan, and who have never known in all their lives what it was to have enough to eat, are now confronting the people of prosperous old London.Conditions have been changing, and the metropolis is congested with a population in excess of the necessary industries and other means of labor to keep it employed and free from want.* B OC GR ÂRE wi dede ey AN EVERY-DAY SCENE IN LONDON.ITundreds of the unemployed, having no homes to go t i to rest their tired bodies on the public benches, © obliged Copyright \u2018
