Councillor Franklin said that Mr. Gray had stated that Mr. Fair would fill "the bill" all right. Councillors Taylor, Gordon, (Cronk, Donaldson, and Ruttan spoke in Mr. Fair's favor. Councillor Stoness thought that a road engineer of more experience should be appoint- ed. The committee's recommendation was adopted on motion of Councillor Gordon, Mr. Fair was asked to address the council. He said he was not a civil engineer, but he had much experience in road building and in constructing small bridges. He also understood con- crete work: Af far as the position fin- ancially was coacerhed, it would . be no benefit Pon The work was a hobby to him, and he would do his very best to give the townships good roads.

Councillors | Grimshaw and Franklin moved that a deputation of the coun- cil wait upon the city council and ask for the abolition of this measure, which has been for years a grievance of the farmers, Councillor Grimshaw said the by- law had been a "bogey." It should never have been put on the city sta- tute book. Councillors Donaldson and Salmond recalled that a promise had been made by city aldermen to abolish the forestalling by-law and market tolls, if the county abolished its road tolls. These tolls were abolished, but the city' did nothing in return. "We haven't been used right by the city of Kingston,"' declared Council- lor Salmond. "The time of the county deputations which have waited upon the city coun- cil has been lost!" declared Council the aldermen of the city were at the mercy of the people who elected them, The resolution of Councillor Grim- shaw was adopted.

Bride and Groom Who Invaded the Arctie Regions--Thousand-mile Bicycle Ride, Tendon Answers The day of the honeymoon of hill ing and cooling in a quet, country retreat seems to be on the wane, and the era of ihe strenuous honeymoon to be ushered in. Within the last six read of ope cauple "month of honey" i months we have who spent their a thosmnd-miles' eyelé ride in Frazce, of another who sealsd a round score oi Alpine peaks in the interval between the altar and the homecoming, and of a third who had the "time oi their lives" among thes grimlies and other wild beats in the Rocky mountains. It is not long since Mr. Fleischman, an American = millionaire, returned from an adventurous honeymoon among Arctic snow-wastes and ice bergs. "Forty-seven days," he says, spent ramming steadily against the gathering ice in an efiort to land on the north-east coast of Greenland." In bridal rig of skeepskin, lined with leather, Mr. Flesichman and his bride dispatched thirty reindeer, 100 seals and twenty-three polar bears; and when at last they returned to Cincin- nati it was to declare that their little trip had been worth every penny of the $75,000 it had cost. Even mare strenuous was the honey moon of the Comte de Lesdamn and his bride, who left the altar on a peril ous journey from Pekin to Caleutta, climbing mountains 20,000 feet high, tramping through desolate regions where for two months they say no living soul, escaping drowning in swollen rivers as by i& miracle, living on game they could shoot, and wan- dering aimlessly for days on vast de- serts and mud plateaus.

The young- est, piper is fourteen years of = age, and only joined the band since coming to camp.
