That the question of harbor im- provements, to meet the demands of the Welland Ship Canal, will receive the special attention of the Kingston Board of Trade, was manifested at a meeting of the Board held on Tues- day night, Several matters of impor- tance were dealt with at the meet- ing. The newly-elected president, Frantes King, occupied the chair, and the other members present were Messrs. Robert Meek, R. D. Suther- land, W. T. Minnes, John Sowards, William Cook, John Donnelly, E. A. Rees, J. G. Elliott, J. M. Campbell, R. J. Carson, H. C. Welch, R. J. Rod- ger, F. R. Anglin, J. W. Power, and J. A. Minnes. At the opening of the meeting, the president, Frances King, took occas. fon to thank the members for the honor conferred upon him at the last meeting. 'He said that he regarded his election as a compliment to the legal profession. Regarding the work of the new year, he said that the Board could not, in view of the war, look for a year of great success. A record year could not be looked for in the industrial world, as the chie: industry was at of making 'war f munitions. If we could break even in the year's/work, it was all that] could be expected, Mr. King freferred to the good iclf had been accomplished ! ay Committee, and com- | plimented ths chairman, J. M. Camp- | bell. He appealed to the committee | to keep up the good work. | The president also referred to the | power question, stating that it would | be before the members just as pro- | minently as ever. The question for| the city now was' How soon are we to hook up with the Hydro-Electric | Commission?" | Perhaps the most prominent ques- | tion to be considered was that of | the improvements to the Kingston Welland Ship Canal. It was to be re- | gretted that the Government, at Ot- | tawa, was just at this time tied up | with heavy expenditure on account | of the war, Every department of the | Government had to cut down their | expenses. The work on the canal] | however, was proceeding, and it was | | necessary that the Kingston harbor | | receive attention. War or no war, | the Government might be expected | 10 meet the needs , although the] speaker was led to believe that there | «would be no immediate work under-| { taken. As a result of the recent reso- | lution "passed by the Board, sound. | ings had been taken in the local har- box! : The President stated further that | he did not think the Government in- | tended to undertake a large develop- ment scheme until it was known | just how far capital was to be ex-| pended on elevators and docks. It| would be the duty of the Board to| | approach the parties interested, and | see what 'development could be ex- | tee, dealing with town planning, and {and with a horse and wagon travelled on either business or pleasure and causing fires. He moved that the re- solution be supported, R. J. Carson seconded the resolution, and it was carried by a unanimous vote, The Board of Trade, of Welland, asked the support of the Bgard, in their movement to have the charge of ten cents, imposed by express com. panies, for manifésting on ali ship- ments to and from the United States, eliminated. R. J. Carson said this was some- thing which should receive the sup- port of the Board, and he asked that the members co-operate - with the Welland Board of Trade in the mat- er, He said the charge was not just to dealers, on the suggestion of J. G. Elliott, the matter was referred to the Railway Committee, A memorial from the Fort Wil liam Board of Trade, appealing for help to have unoccupied lands in On. tario laid out, with the community idea, was referred to the Agriculture Committee. The Sherbrooke, Que., Board of Trade, submitted two resolutions for support, One was to promote Rus- sian trade, and the other for a change to be made in the conditions governing the bonds of government contractors, Both were sent to the Legislation Committee that after the war their resources would be gone, and they looked to Canada as a place where they would haye greater op- portunities.' He felt that the federa- al government should be prepared to aid these people as far as possible. It was agreed to send the matter to the Agricultural Committee, for consid- eration, The Board has a special commit- the resolution from the Commission on Conversation, dealing with this matter, was referred to this commit- tee, Prof. O. D. Skelton is chairman of this committee, which has been quite active. J. G. Elliott said that there has ween a falling off in the membership of the Board of Trade, and advocated a campaign to secure more members. He said Kingston should have three or four hundred members on its Board of Trade.

It was afterwards decided that the | president, with 'Mayor Richardson, John Donnelly, Ald. Hughes, chair- man of the Civic, Property commit- tee, and a representative of the loco- motive works, form a committee to meet Mr. Chapleau, chief engineer, and Col. Anderson, district engineer of the Department of Public Works. This conference wjll be held in the course of a few days. At this meeting it is hoped that the new wharf line will be settled satisfactorily -to all concerned, While the Locomotive Works ask to have the wharf extend. ed three hundred feet, it is claimed thay extend it further than one | hundiéd and fifty feet would inter- fere with mavigation. Resolutions Endorsed. The members had before them se- veral resolutions from different Boards of Trade, asking for support. One came from G. Y. Chown, on behalf of ithe Forestry €ommission, asking for better protection from fire in the forests, which was heartily en- dorsed. . on Mr. Meek said that it was a reso- lution that should be supported. He recalled a wonderful story told at a recent meeting of the Associated Boards of Trade, in which it was stated that tifere had been enormous losses of valuable timber, as the re- sult of people goimg through forests A -------- It is universally known that iron is "very important element of the cause of run-down conditions and an- aemia.

SAGE TEA DARKENS HAIR TO ANY SHADE Don't stay, Gray ! Here's an Old- time Recipe that Any- body can Apply. * The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded, gray hair to its nat- ural color dates back to grandmo- ther"s time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and at- tractive. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked ap- pearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. But brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for a 50 cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com- pound," you will get this famous old preparation, improved by the addi- tion of other ingredients, which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You y dam- pen a, or soft bi with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair d pears, and after another PL, two, becomes beautifully dark and glossy. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com- pound is a delightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance.
