Mr. PUTNAM:

Alluding to the remarks

of the hon. member for West Calgary (Mr. Shaw), I think he seems to assume that the proposed barrier against the word "royal" corresponds with the line at which the word is allowed or disallowed upon application at present. That is a fallacy, because in hundreds of cases people now of their own volition are assuming to use the word "royal" on all sorts of advertising devices and in connection with little partnerships and companies whether properly incorporated or not. Therefore, the remedy which he would assume as at present in the hands of the authorities is not there.

Mr. PUTNAM:

Who shall be the judge

of what is logical? Shall we leave the standard to the hon. member for Mackenzie?

Mr. PUTNAM:

The hon. member gave

very fatherly advice to the minister when he said he would be well advised, if such an arrangement were entered into, to let the House adjourn. Does he understand the import of that particular remark? It was a little too fatherly altogether.

Progress reported.

On motion of Mr. Graham, the House adjourned at 11.10 p.m.

Monday, June 15, 1925

Mr. PUTNAM:

Perhaps for Hon. F. B. McCurdy, the man who turned Liberal.

Mr. PUTNAM:

What is the length of the season each year?
