I'he campaign for money for the Ca- Inadian Patnotic 'along in Kingston. Ihw workers put .in a very busy | itday on Tuesday, and although the of- | ficinl report was not given at the eBid of the day, being held over until the noon-day luncheon, in the city hall, it was hnown that the result wag most encouragmg: Kveryone. worked with a will, and there was no lost tine, Wednesday morning the men' wers at it again hardér than ever, for on the first: day the tricks of the game had to be mastered, and with all these tricks under their hat the men were able to get along with their work in fine style! Une outstanding feature of: the col- lection is. the amount of pleasure the men get out of the canvass. Every man you meet has a smile of the "Sunny Jim" stop to enquire how evérything 1s goilig, in spite of the fact that heis f very busy man, he will take time to" say, "Everything is going along fine," and at the same time you Will get a simile which verifies his statement. "Icingston's honor is at stake; help the war fund. Give, give, give. This is one of 'the mottoes placed al the corner of Princess and Bing slrects, snd it has certainly caught the 'eye of every citizen, for they are giving according to their means, and that is as it should be. . But it is the man with the means who will have to bear the heavy burden, and that, too, is as it should be, While the money is eoming in good, there is still a great deal to be gathered and as is well known the last half of the amount aimed at is far harder to get that the first and it means that all who can give another subscription should do so. On Wednesday morning a. repre sentative of the Whig dropped' into the Board of Trade rooms, which are used as"the headquarters for the campaign workers, and it was cer- tainly a busy scene which met his eyex. The' mein room was filled with men pouring over names The pdvtains of the teams' were arrang- ing lists for their team mates, and everything had a business-like air. C. A. Warburton, the orghnizer, was supervising everything, and when the Whig man asked him how thing was poing, he, too, had a smile. The Whig. wus sure then that all was sight and as it should be. But while *the amount is go- ing up Mr. Warburton still makes an appeal for continued effort, as he does not want the workers to fall short of the 850,000. every- Most Generous Gift, I'he commabdant, staff and non Royal have most gener- ously contributed to the Canadian Batriotic fund ome day's pay per month, to continue for six months. This scheme of contribution should commend itself to other assembiages recviving monthly salaries on ac count of its easy payments and the integral amount realized. The above contribution will easily sum up to 3500 Military College Realized Over 830. the ladies of Wolfe Island are to be heartily congratulated. Realizing that the gathering of people at the annual al fair would provide a good opportunity of canvassing on behalf of the Canadian Patriotic Fund, they made their plans ac cordingly I'he islanders and visi "tagged" on Tuesday and over 830 raired for the good cause tors were Notes Of The Campaign. Fhrough an error in rearranging the names, the name of-H. W. Snell- ing was omitted from the, team - of Frank Welch. Mr. Snelling has been on the job all- the Lime, doing every- thing in his power to help. things along, Many of the workers were on the job on' Tuesday night, and suc- ceeded in gathering in grist for the mill. Orgumnizer C. A, Warburton out that Thursday will be as a free-for-all day paign. Many more points observed Jin the" cam- people' are lgely to be missed by the cgllectors owing to the short camppign, and . they are asked to send in their money to the head office at the Board of Trade rooms. ) Ald. R, D. Sutherland met a for: mer Kingsionian on Princess street, while out on his rounds ¢ collecting "Of what service can I be to you ?"' said the. - ex-Kingstonian to Ald Sutherland. "Can ybu use me as a worker or a giver?" "PH use you as a givel, "if vou don't mind," replied Ald. Suther- land, whereupon the ex- Kingstonian put his hand down in his poel chet and donated a neat sum. A Kingston lady, eighty, years of age, sat in her home on Tuesday, anxibuslys awaiting the arrival of a collector for her .gift to the fund. All morning long she listened for a knock at the door, for she felt sure that some person would call. But no person came, so in the afternoon, fearing that she would be ovarlook- ed, she hired a cab and drove to the Board of Trade rooms, where she loft her contribution, amounting "to "l wanted to make sure the mon- ey would get here," the old lady told 'one of the collectors. And then she went away feeling very happy Through the kindness of oe 'Ww.
