The Constitution provides for the existence of a Commonwealth and State Governments," he added each with definite sovereignty. Thus honour's re comunendations for Commonwealth and State services respectively appertain to the Commonwealth and the State, neither haping the right of interference with the other's recommendations.

The Constitution, however, can only work successfully with co-operation and From this point mutual consideration. of view the Commonwealth's action, in insisting on the recommendation, con- trary to the wishes of the State Govern- ment and the Legislative Assembly, may be regretted.

The Colonial Secretary, on the other: hand, could not have, rejected the recom mendation on this ground without ex posing himself to the accusation of inver fering with a position established by the Constitution.

The incident illustrates the advan tages of the position adopted by Canada, under which honours are no longer con- ferred on persons usually resident in the country.

The Prince of Wales intended to visit the exhibition, incomplete as it would then be, before his departure for South Afrien.

This year they intended to have more gardens and more flowers, mere flags, more music, more light, and variety in the restaurants. They hoped to stage in the Stadium more than one spectacle of the starop of the famous
