GRANT ADVISES EVERY MALE STUDENT OF | QUEEN'S TO ENLIST In One of the University Military Units And to Participate in Whole- some. Sport and Social Life. Capt. W. L. Grant, 59th Battalion, C. E. F., Who holds the chair of Col- onial History in Queen's, writes as follows to the University Journal: "To do the right as God gives us to see the right." But sometimes it is onl? given us to gee dimly, and as far as I can judge, there is some dimness of vision at Queen's at pres- ent In this hour of peril, should a student play hockey and football, | dance or hold dinners, should the | University have a team in the foot- ball league or the O. H. A_, or should | all men lead the strenuous life and forswear the joys of peace? We must remember that in this problem, we are dealing not with or dinary citizens, but with students [i.e.,, with men who have definitely | decided that unless some new and | | terrible crisis should arise, it ¥s not their duty to go overseas before next April Whether they are right or wrong in their decision is imma- terial; it is enough that after weigh- ing the situation such is their deci- sion, and it is an essential element in the situation | Next; there is nothing unpatriotic in taking part in athletics; and noth- { ing patriotic in forswearing them. In | iso far as they tend to keep a man | physically fit, they are an essential of military training, for war is } | game for the fit only There is no | | more patriotism in cutting out ath- | leties than in cutting out classes. But, and here is the point, it is! the first duty of every fit man of | | military age to be ready to answer | the call. If a man is playing games, jor "fussing" on Saturday afternoon, { whe knows that at present he would { be of no use either in the field or in | | the munitions factory, them that | { man is-----to put it plainly--an unpa- | | triotic cur. But if a man has had such train- | {ing, either at Queen's or elsewhere, 1 | then the more normal his life, and | | the keener his interest in athletics, | splendid. The first floor is lined with | charge of the Machine-Gun School at|the better both for his own nerves | {and for those of his neighbors. What is wanted at the present time is not | withdrawal from the O. H. A. or from any other legitimate form of sport, but participation in . games | only by men who have learned the | elements of military drill, and if pos- | sible gone some way on the road to | | becoming officers.

LARGELY ATTENDED, i The Programme By Artists of Inter national Reputation Was Greatly Enjoyed--Four Belgians in the Stellar Concert Group. The concert given in Grant Hall on Monday night, with one excep- tion by Belgian artists, in aid of the Belgian sufferers through the ter- | rible war, was attended by a large audience, which listened with great pleasure to the splendid musical pro- gramme presented by the artists of international reputation. To the patronage of H. I. H. the Princess Clementine Napoleon and the Lord Mayor of London, England, was add- ed that of Queen's Theological Alum- 1 ni Association, in session at the uni- versity, which included the concert in its programme of the week. May- or Sutherland arranged all the local details, and there would have been a much larger audience had His Wor- ship been notified a week earlier that | the concert was assured for Kings- toi. As it was, the Mayor was no- tified only a few days ago, and the !| arrangements had made. No more briffiant group of musi- cal artists has been heard in Kings- ton in a long time than the "Cercle | Esperanza," which includes Mile. | Oct. Belloy, soprano of the Antwerp | Opera House; Mlle. Daisy Jean, 'cell- ist Brussels Royal Conservatoire and Concerts, Ostend; Mlle. Gabr. Ra- | doux, professor Royal Antwerp Con- | servatoire; Willis Flanagan, tenor, Italian Opera, and Jan Collignon, . bass-baryton, Antwerp Opera House and Concerts, Ostend. Mlle. Gabr. Radoux, who figured in every number, is a brilliant accom- panist and pianist, Her two solo selections, "Caprice Brilliant" and "Papillons," both by Olsen, were skilfully executed, The 'cellist, Mlle Daisy Jean, play- | ed "Concerto" (Servais), "Recueil lement" and "Tarentelle," the latter two by Popper. Many 'cellists have heard in Kingston, but none could eclipse the Belgian artist; who | won the warm applause of the large audience, who greatly enjoyed her playing Mlle. Oct. Belloy captivated the audience with her rich dramatic so- prano voice. Her 'singing of "La Reine de Saba" (Go#inod) was mag- nificent Other numbers given by Mlle. Belloy were "Calling," "Le Cid" (J. Massenet) and Lenoncavallo's "Serenade." Besides these she sang two duets, Verdi's "Migerere" (II Trovatore), with Mr. Flanagan, and "Hamlet" (Ambr. Thomas) with Mons. Collignon. Both these operatic renditions were saperbly sung. Mons. Jan Collignon has a mag- nificent bass-baryton voice, and his rendition of "O Palerme," Aria Ves- pres Siciliennes (Verdi) and "La Libertie,"" made a great hit with the audience. One of his encore songs was "La Marseillaise." Willis Flanagan can sing Italian as well as Irish, but his songs in his own tongue were appreciated the bet- | ter. "In An Old-Fashioned Town," | "Absent". and 'Mother. Macree," were sung in a,sweet tenor voice. Mr. Flanagan possesses a voice of great | power as well as sweetness, : The concert concluded with the singing of the Belgian anthem by | Mons, Collignon," and "O Canada"! by Mr. Flanagan, the audience stand- ing the while, followed by "God Save the King." The concert netted $327. elgian fund.
