The pro- gramme from first to last was of the highest order. One bout followed | another, with J. H. Cameron, the well-known emtertainer of Toronto, keeping the crowd amused between times. There was a very large crowd present and every person en- joyed the event to the utmost, and also showed by their applause when- ever he went on the stage their ap- preciation of the work of Capt. James T. Sutherland. Capt. Sutherland, as former man- ager of the Frontenacs, and now presiden} of the O.H.A. and C.A.H. A., gav¥ a short address of welgome at the opening of the programme. He spoke of the associations of the past between the public and the club and feeling that there was a debt of gratitude on the club's part it was decided -to discharge that debt by having an entertainment. He sin- cerely hoped that all would enjoy the programme, An event that proved even more interesting than any on the pro- gramme was an address by Lieut. Col. Charles A. Low, O.

"No fairer, no squarer or better officer commanding a battalion ever lived than Col. Low," said the captain in opening. He spoke feelingly of the way that "Scotty" Davidson and George Rich. ardson had met their end. He gave the story of "Scotty" being killed in the capture of a machine-gun that) was causing great loss among his men. Both deeds were heroic and worthy of official recongition.

There Are Many Citizens Who Refuse to Clean Off Their Walks. That there should be a proper sys- tem in Kingston for the removal of snow from the sidewalks, and that the necessary cost should come out of the general taxes, is the conten- 'tion of a number of citizens. While the snowfall has not been very heavy, still there has been some, and many citizens have been compelled to walkin snow knee deep on some of the streets. Citizens are called upon to clean off their walk, but there ate quite a npmber who do not put a shovel to their walk from one end of the year to the other. And it is a shame, too. With every citizen doing his "bit" there would be no need'of a the peril.
