MARICHAL: To Joseph MéQuade-- He Takes Is. sue With the Statements the-Col.! lection Makes, ; i Kingston, Jan. 19---(To the Edi- tor) : It is much to be regretted that satelbyns, right or wrong, can- not be made by Mr. McQuade with- out indulging into vulgar abuse. Whit, has, pray, my "cognomen" to do with the questions I raised in con- nection with the unspeakable system of garbage collection? Yet, since it seems to M® MeQuades a "superna- tural" name, let, me tell him that it has been constantly born by meii who distinguished themselves in other paths of life than the fattening of "pice, juicy, succlent, healthy pork" however, honorable and soul-elevat- ing the latter occupation may be! My credentials are simply those 'of a ralepayer entitled as such to decent and sanitary treatment and this whe- ther I am a Pole, a Chinaman or. a Senegalese! : : 1 will now answer very briefly, for my time is precious, the few points raised and freely dijuted into gallons of the best condensed. wisdom of past aldermanie (a. suspicious-look- ing word, almost [like Germanic!) generations, (1) My mention of two outstand- ing disgraceful features of Kingston, not the only ones it seems from a perusal of yesterday's local! papers, does not imply a connection between the two, and I was quite aware at the time that the managers of the CGar- bage Co., Ltd., had a totally inade- quate knowledge of chemical "Kul- tur," (which Mr. McQuade spells Kul ture!) and could not therefore at- tend to the chlorination of drinking water. (2) With regards to the by-laws, how on earth could a "new arrival" be possibly acquainted with Mr. Me- Quade's encyclopedic knowledge? I confess that coming from civilized countries (since I am not a German, and have no special king for Gér- mans, having four relatives at the front against them we will leave ont Germany so as not to offend further exaggerated susceptibility,) 1 wis to- tally ignorant of the fact that a sani- tary matter of such importance as the collection of house refuse was diverted in this city into a pig-fat- tening business. In spite of Mr. Mc- Quade's statement, I have never seen this done elsewhere and my horizon is certainly far wider than his limit. ed local experience. I" knew so little about that eye- sore, the fragrant establishment in the vieinity of a local cemetery, that 1 remember putting; quite .innocent- ly, some diginfectant into my bin to avoid unpléasant smell during the summer. No doubt, if Mr. McQuade had known of this, he might have constructed this sanitary precaution into a wilful and malicious "attempt at poisoning his pigs! COST OF AN.INCINERATOR WILL BE CONSIDERED. Board of Health Desires to Have Sat- isfactory Collection -- Hugh Me- Bratney Elected Chairman. The inaugural meeting of the Board of Health was held on Wednesday af- ternoon, when Hugh McBratney was elected chairman. The other members present vere Mayor Sutherland, Dr. W. Gibson, B. Blackhall and Dr. A. R. B. Wil liamson, the medical health officer. The question of garbage collection was discussed at some length, and on the suggestion of Mayor Suther- land it was decided to have a com- mittee secure information yegarding the cost of installing an incinerator. The committee appointed will = con- sist of Mayor Sutherland aud Mr. Blackball. The mayor. said that some definite scheme should be put forth for the proper disposal of gar- bage, and he was of the opinion that a suitable plant could be installed at a cost of $1,700 or $1,500. All the members of the board were agreed that the present system of the collection of garbage was far from satisfactory, and an effort will be wade to put a system into effect that will give "satisfactory results: A request was received from Ander- son Bros., for a permit to cut ice for eooling purposes, the ice house to be closed under the direction of the board. The request will be granted under these conditions. Two other requests of a similar natore have been granted by the board. Dr. Williamson reported that the area for the cutting of pure ice had been out on Jan. 14th, and that there was no excuse for ice be- ing cut in the prohibited area. The chairman drew the attention of the members io the "great need of an inspector to work for the board the entire year. Last year the board had the services of Consfable Tim- merman for a few months, but the chairman held that there was a great deal of work to he done, and. that it would warrant the hiring of an. inspector to work &il the time. The mayor was asked to take up the matter with the City Council. On motion of Mr. Blackhall it was decided to recommend to the City Council the installation of a sterilizer for the use of the city creche and for citizens who desire to have milk for infants steralized A SPLENDID SHOWING How a Policy In the Sun Life Com. pany Turned Out.

Big Room In Calcium Carbide. Fagineetin and Mining Journal. . The world's output of calcium car- Ride in 1913 exceeded 350,000 met- ri¢ tons. The autigenous welding ol metals requires a large quantity, about 32,000 tons being consumed ter that purpose any, as compared with 28,0 ms for illu- no'nating. The price for calcium carbide in Europe was maintained at aoout £11% per ton. The produc- tion and price are regulated by a syndicate, which at the end of 1913 wos renewed for another term. mide in 1913 was over 150,000 tons. The Oddo' works in Sweden have a plant capable of making 90,000 tons per asnum. All European makers separate the nitrogen from the at- mosphere by the factional distilia- ition of liquid air.

The missionary conference was opened. on Wednesday. at 4 p. m., when Rev. Dr. W. T. Hersdge, mod- erator, delivered an address before a large audience in Convocation Hall. Principal Gordon was on the plat- form and introduced the speaker. Dr. Herridge spoke of the service which we owe to our country and stated that there was no escape from service of some kind whether it be military or not. The crown of all service, however, in the speaker's estimation was the service of preach- ing the gospel of Jesus Christ. Now- a-days materialism tends to quench the spiritual in us. "I feel that it is a great trial' which is tending to change our view of things, but over our great land to-day is heard the ery to God." The scoffer says that it is a selfish cry and js the last ap- peal, but such is not thé case. Many who were not accustomed to do so are now appealing to the church. We are all wailing for strength and guidance from above, whether con- scious of it or not. We cannot emerge from this great war as we were before it, and will either be better or worse. If we be- come worse as a result of this great trial, then we shall be our own worst enemies. When faith is dead, even if everything is on the material side is pleasant and proigprous; yet the seed of ruin is sown. We have evils near our own homes which are easlaving our souls, evils which are a greater menace to us than any defeat on the battlefield. Do we not need this terrible trial of war as a chastisement for our fol- lies? Life's greatest conflict must be a conflict between opposing ideals and aspirations. Mow, there Is a call for every one of us who aspires Lf to be of some service to his fellow man, the call of truth and righteous- ness Wo can afford to endure pall And PArEonnl Sorrow bur we must keep our souls. . We are told that the day of the preacher is past; but the day of the preacher is coming. The people of the present day feel the force of the message he brings. © This is the hour of labor for the church, and all men are watching her work. "We have sent our. soldiers to the front, God bless them all, but we cannot properly -setve our king unless we serve our God." - But we who stay have a greater battle to fight; of truth against hate, salvation against destruction. 2 .

"But, if T had to choose over again, I would still' be a preacher of the gospel of Jesus Christ," said Dr. Herridge. y with a general appeal to the divinity students 'to keep their bodies pure, and to make use of every opportun- of the university. "Lef nothing that pertains to man be foreign te you." Contrary to éxpectitions, Rev. Dr. Grant did not speak, but 'will conduet Sunday's service in ' Cénvoeation Hall. | " ---- On wednesday another game in the Arts League was played when Arts '16 and '18 clashed on the gymnasium floor.

Game--Two Hun. dred Belleville Supporters Came Down To See The Game, The expected happened on Wednes- day night when the jumior Frontenacs defeated the Belleville junior O.H.A team on 'the covered rink by a score of *5 to 2. Owing to both the Col- legiates and Queen's having the rink lor practices shortly before, the jce was sticky and eut up. The game all through was an excellent exhibition for the large erowd present, among whom were over two hundred Belle- villeites, who came dows oa a spec- ial train, with a band. The. gama was won for the squad by superior combination, stick- handling and skating. The sticky ice kept the puck rolling and made it very hard to handle. The fault of the Belleville team seem 'to be too much bunching, every man playing the puck and not watching his opponent. The Frontenaes played a 'good game all through and worked together won- derfully. = For the local team Stin- son and Cooke shared the hénors equally. Captain Millan also played a Very fast game but had a habit of not always passing the puck when it was advantageous to db so. Stewart and McCallum, on the defence, did good work, the former playing one of his best games. Smith, on left wing, although playing wonderful : hockey, at times, seemed to be slightly off color. He scored one of the five goals, however. Mills playéd a splen- Sid gone in the last two periods, when his nets were being const y bombarded. + : oatly For the Belleville squad Pimlock, the theologian, from Albert College, played the hest.

The play was very spectacular, as both of the Frontenac defence men were resting, on the fence for tripping.
