As to the proposed election he felt that it would be a disgrace to bring on a contest at this time, when the nation was engaged in sucha terrible struggle. It was up to Premier Borden to announce to. the people that there would b no election. Just at this time the thoughts of the people should be turned to nobler things.

('Meara, president of Arts "15, explained that while a graduate realizes that he has obtained his 'ambitions after four years work, yet he does not really want to!leave the university and Kingston, where for four years he has lived! one of the best parts of his career. He spoke of the intimacy between the, stu- dents and professors that character- ized Queen's University and stated that this 'had. to a great extent helped in the work on thes course.

H. Filson, speaking for the medi- cal faculty, paid a tribute to the splendid professors and sald that they were all experts in their work. In reviewing the four years work in the University the speaker expressed the opinion that more time might be allowed for clinical work. At present this must be done outside of the regular hours and the speaker sug- gested that "an afternoon a week might be devoted to this work.

The Medical Faculty had kept | versity and had students and grad- : Deing accepted. e| the high recorti of Queen's Uni-|U | ing of officers is the most important | feature to-day.

Recent raids have been made [probably to ascertain England's | strength of defence in this particular {1ine. The fihish of war is, in my opin- | fon, a long way off. | "Germany is still very powerful, and pot suffering because of 'any shortage of food or war munitions; so advised by a friend who had spent six weeks there. Ultimftely, there is | bound to be a shortage of munitions | 6f war, but economy or substitution | is apparent on all sides. For instance, | white metal buttons are used on uni- | forms in place of brass, and white | metal is being substituted in place jot brass where possible, in the manu- i | | | facture of shrapnel. "Belgium, or that portion occupied by the Germans and back of line of | action, is all under cultivation, work | being performed by soldiers after be- | Ing taken from trenches. The nature { of work keeps the men fit and fur- | nishes diversion. "Russia is a country of wonder- ful possibilities, not at all appreciat- | ed by others than the Germans. The | Russian merchant to-day speaks well of the German business methods. He appreciates their willingness to give credit, and likewise, their system of | credit. I cannot help but feel that Russia is a rich market and one we should study and concentrate on. This is undoubtedly a time when we, as Canadians desirous of branching out into the world's markets, should ayail ourselves of every opportunity and get started right. I have heard criticisms abroad "of failure to make promised deliveries and some in- stances of goods not being up to standard. We can only beat out German and other competition by making good and giving the purchas- er what he wants and pays for. "Seeing Russia to-day, you natur- { ally see it under its best conditions, due to the absence of drinking. In- toxication is unknown and the change I am told is marvelous. One meets with courtesy on every side and the country seems absolutely settled and adjusted to the new condition, and I am told that the constant agitation of a peasant member of the Duma was largely responsible for issuing of the order. Russia, I am told, has eleven million men under arms to- day, although their losses have been appalling. Cities are full of. wounded men, and one sees many pitiful sights. The Russians ave a deeply religious people and it was my good fortune to attend a Sunday morning service at St. Saviour's, Moscow. By special permission we were allowed in the gallery and looked down on a congregation of six thousand people. fully one third of which were wound- ed soldiers. - No seats are provided and these people stand for hours crossing themselves and bowing dur- ing the chanting of the service. The deep bass voices of the priests are marvellous, likewise, the unaccom- panied voices of the choir in fhe res- ponses, The cathedrals or churches are beautifully decorated and finish- ed inside, so absolutely different to the Pigin simplicity of the English e | cath 1s." The journey to Petrograd occupies six and one-half days, the route be- ing Neweastle to Bergen; rail to Christiania; Stockholm and Karungi, Sweden, thence by sleighs across the Torneo River to Karungi, Finland, and by rail through Finland to Pe- trograd. Mr. Wheatley made the trip with Amelius. Jarvis, Torontd, president of the locomitive works. It was a long trip, covering three months, ana very tiresome travelling but, nevertheless. Mr. Wheatley enjoyed it. W. C. T. U. Meeting.

Mrs, Patrick Campbell who is ap- pearing at the Grand to-night has brought herself new honors through her intimate conception of a pecu-| liarly difficult characterization, that of a flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, in G. Bernard Shaw's latest play, "Pyg- malion." In the highly English tale, |. we find a modern Pygmalion in the guise of a professor of phonetics, who in defiance of a wager under takes the evolution of a Cockney flower girl to duchess. The bet. is won, and the hand-made "lydy" shows well the time and attention bestowed upon her by her teacher, who leans toward expletives and maledictions. In the process, Hig gins, however, fails to realize thei] the girl has a heart, and perhaps a soul. 'He doés not realize rhe has fallen in love with him despite his irrascible nature. There is mo "Mvy ed-happily-ever - afterward" finale, but one easily grasps the inference that all goes well. An exceptiopaly competent cast is seen in support of the star, notably Philip Merivale, as Prof. Higgins and Edmund Curney as Alfred Doolittle. Vaudeville On Thursday.
