EXPECTS TO HAVE SIX TEAMS NEXT SEASON A Picked Kingston Team Will Play For the Dominion Championship ketball Tie, A" meeting of the city soocer 'league executive was held on Tuesday even- ing, at ich W. G. Ferguson al, m chief discussion of yo evening dealt with a smoker and concert, which the league intends holding on Friday, Jan. 16th. The details were left to a. committee con- looking after will be presented to the champion Shipyard team on the same might as the smoker is held, and orders will be given immediately to have the medals sebured and engraved. In addition to the medals the Shipyard team will be presented with the silver cup presented to the league by H. Milne. last year the cup was won iy R.C.H.A. It was stated in the Whig a few weeks ago that next seasom will eee six teamg in the league, and at the meeting on Tuesday night it was stated lg some of the members pre sent that one of these additional teams will he an aggregation com prised of some of the:Lancashire boys who are im the city, and. will be known as the '"'Lancashires." Tha other team, no doubt, will he Queen's. ' The league next season will then be comprised of the following teams : Shipyard, C.L.C., R.C.H.A.. Departmentals, Lancashires, and Queen's; it was proposed by W. G. Ferguson that the city league play under the rules of the Dominion Football As sociation, which e considerable amount of wrangling which has been in evidence this sea- son. It was also suggested by Nr. Ferguson, that Kingston will in all probability have a soccer team to com: pete with Toronto and Montreal for the Dominion Soccer Championship. The various members present were well pleased with the idea, and were of the opinion that a winning team could be picked in Kingston. It was Mr, Fer. guson's desire that if he was here next year, nothing would please him bet. ter than to see a team from this city go up against either of these two large cities and defeat them. He had no hesitancy in saying that Kingston has a fair share of good soccer players, and he would not he surprised in the least if next fall Kingston won the soccer championship of Canada.

According to the argument of Miss Agnes Slack, that prominent Eng: lish temperance figure, who is in the city, after attending the world's convention of the W.CT.U. at ooklyn, N.Y., he who drinks, is not a true patriot. Miss Slack is the corresponding secretary of the worlds W.C.T.U.,, and a leader of organizations which aim for teetotals ism. As Mrs. William Craig re- marked, they aspire at obliterating "this foul blot" of the drink traffic from the world. At Tuesday evening's meeting, in St. Andrew's church hall, Miss Slack justified her charge of the drinkers lack of patriotism by saying that it is he who fails to do his part in striking at a traffic which is his country's worst enemy. Those who take drink, said she, are, to say the least, not setting the best and truest examples. During her address, Miss Slack spoke of conditions in India. Here the British government has done wonders for that country with its Mohammedans and Hindus, and their castes. The development of trade and advance of education has been marvellous. ' But the natives say that the Christian mation has brought to India as elsewhere, the curse of drink, would eliminate a The members of the Williamsville | Sydenham are now tied for the cellar Laing, Rev.

The chairman of the evening The mild spell on Wednesday morning, put an end to "Mike" Y.W.C.A, held a successful tea and Flanagan's endeavor to make ice at sale in Rev. Dr. T. B. Scott. a missionary on furlough from Ceylon, added that the British planters have HWrought to the natives of that island the drink, which is the worst ourse. As present there is a wave of temperance itiation passing over Ceylon. is Slack spoke in am enlighten- ing manner on conditions in Fag- land and other countries, The wqrid is learning, said she, wherever liawor is in the community it will meet and check, to a very large de- gree, the good which is being at- tempted. In England, Miss Slack said, it' checks good that would result from legislation,, and every bill pass- ed for education is<met by the liquor traffic. She added that England looks at Oanada as a kind of "hea- con light." She was glad the domin- ion was attaining such results. The higher the civilization in any country the less the liberty for the individual was one of the answers she made to the excuse that local op- tion takes away a man's liberty. What the drink trafic is doing in the poli. tical life of Great Britain, she elabor- ated on. It is the greatest enemy to the home, the health and trade of any people. Mrs. William Craig, presided at the meeting. Reviewing the work of the W.C.I.U.,, she informed the audience that one of the departments of activ- ity was in the interests of the franch- ise poor women. "For this we hope, and for this we pray," said she. She believed that if women had the franch- ise they would exercise it for the im. provemrnt of country and home, Mrs. G. A. Bateman read the scrip- ture, and Mrs. J. Fvans, sang a solo. Rev. G. I. Campbell, = and v. Dr. Scott were the mover and seconder of a vote of thanks to Miss Slack. Rev. A. Brown, pronounced the benediction. A number were enrolled in the "white ribbon" union. MISSING BOY LOCATED. Cross Lake Mystery Has Been Cleared Up.

Of the Medical Missionaries in Bleak i Labrador. In the records of great { what lines more bright than those which tell of the men who have] : turned aside from the path of as | sured success and brilliant fame to devote themselves to the service of their brothers in the bleak and un- kindly outposts of the world. Such men are Dr. Grenfell and his co- workers of the Labrador medical mission. The fishermen who livg on these coasts have a hard life, ag- gravated by Isolation and lack ot * medical attendance. They are a the "allyviations to their hard lot which fhey owe to the medical mis sion th its hospitals here amd there along the coast. There are also the small hospital steamers calling at too long intervals at all the out-of-the-way places, bringing healing and comfort, and often standing between the people and starvation, for sometimes the sea, their chief dependence, fails them. The reports of Drs. Grenfell, Little, Hare, and the rest of the devoted bani, ate sometimes pa- thetic reading. But the picture has its bright side, top. Strong friends are gathering to the support of the mission; hospital facilities are im- proving; the people are learning to use more foresight, and gradually conditions are changing. But this iesson's' fishery has been a partial failure, and the mission is calling on its friends for help. Some yea: ago, Dr. Grenfell 'brought over a large herd of reindeer from Lap- land.
