The road to Barriefield Camp is in a disgraceful shape. There is about three inches of dust from the bridge to the camp despite scraping which it received a short time ago. The dust is blowing about and every person and wagon that arrives in camp is covered with it.

Cargied On in Kingston During the Past Winter, The Kingston Relief Association has presented a very satisfactory re- port of the work carried on during the wint.: months, . The amount ex- pended on families in the city was $2,165.62. The report of the trea- surer, W. J. Crothers, showed this to be the case, with a balance in the treasury of $834.48. One hundred and fifty-nine families were assisted. The dispensers of help were Miss Muckleston and Thomas Ronan, who tied a most satisfactory report, showed that there had been no overlapping. ? The various charitable organiza. tions co-operated with Miss Muckle- ston and Mr. Ronan. W. H. Wyllie, secretary of the Board, rendered his services in the way of examining all applicants for help and otherwise as- sisting. The active working mem- bers of the Board are Miss Muckle- ston and Mr. Ronan, who are deserv. ing of the thanks of the citizens for untiring efforts in assisting the ployed. chairman expressed his work done - Pe Pp of the other mem- connection proposed new | Sergt, G.

The Sports Committee of Barrie: field Camp met on Monday evening in the Y. M. C. A. tent and a very enthusiastic meeting resulted. Two representatives from each unit were chosen making fourteen on the com- mittee. This committee will look after all sports at the camp. Each unit will run a league of its own and the winners of each week's games will play in the Camp League on Saturday afternoon. This Satur- day the following games will be played: football, 38th vs. 26th; Sth C. M. R. vs. Base and Ammunition Column. Baseball, 8th C. M.

Patterson were appointed a permanent sports committee. This committee will hold its first meeting on Wednesday evening. A schedule | for indoor baseball games will be drawn up in the near futare. On Monday evening in the Y. M. C. A. tent what is called a "'Sing- Song" was held in which the soldiers make an impromptu programme for themselves. It is remarkable what splendid talent can be shown up in} this way and some of the work last night would be a credit to the profes- sional stage. There were about twelve items consisting of recita- tions, comic songs and vaudeville stunts which were thoroughly appre- ciated. A committe¢ has been ap- pointed to draw up programmes for the future. The written examinations of the fourth course of the Royal School of Artillery are being conducted this week. Both officers and men have worked hard and the instructors ex- pect a splendid showing when the pa- pers are corrected. The course fin- ishes on Friday afternoon.

Burritt left on Monday for an inspection trip to Deseronto and other places in the west to choose a suitable place for a convalescent home for soldiers. Gananoque has offered the Gananoque Inn. Kings- ton should get busy and make some éffort to seoure this home for the city. The authorities prefer to have the building on the mainland; it is not likely to go. to one of the Thousand Islands. Where Is the Tree? y Flowers are not the only things that are a prey to thieves. Last Saturday a penitentiary official re- siding on Kensington avenue plant- ed a little chestnut tree with which he had beon presented. When he went out on Sunday morning to wa- ter it, the tree was gone and the | spot where it had been planted was nicely levelled. . > ' Broke His Wrist While A, J.
