PARTRIDGE & SONS, PHONE 38e. ve UAL FOR FOOT PASSENGERS GOING BARRIEFIELD, gestion of Trafic On the Tempor- ary Bridge This Summer, Cataraqui bridge seems to be Causing a great amount of trouble to People who try to think of methods Of overcoming the crowded condi- tions that are bound to come with a Samp of 10,000 men at Barriefield. The motor traffic will be very heavy, but with so many soldjers there who are used to tramping' the country roads, there will also be an immense foot-traffic, A splendid suggestion' has been advanced by one who has been study- ing the conditions. His idea Is to uge the new causway for pedestrians and the temporary bridge for ve- hicles. The temporary crossing will this year be divided by a series of boards into two sections to compel all vehic- 166 to take the right side of the road. Thiz will be of great value but it does not allow any room for people walking. At present there is just enough room for two motor-cars or horses-drawn vehicles to pass. Pe- destrians simply have to crowd against the outside railing to keep away from the wheels. Even with the most experienced drivers some one is liable to be in- Jured. This will be the great dif- ficulty, as the wheel vehicle traffic, when properly regulated, as it will be by the Militia authorities, will take care of itself, To take care of the thousands of soldiers and others who will use the bridge in crossing to the city it is suggested that the causway now in Course of construction be used. It would be a simple matter and not in- terfere with the work that is going on. The work is now confined to the centre piers for the lift bridge and from now will consist mostly of concrete work. The opening is not too wide and could be spanned in the absence of thé steel bridge by a pon- toon. The cadets of the Royal Mili- tary College could be called on for this work which is very much in their line. The pontoon or scow, which ever would be the most prac- tical, could be made the width of the opening. There is always a tug working somewhere near the caus- Way and the arrangement could be made that either this tug or some small motor boats could be used in moving the scow or pontoon to allow the pdssage of boats through. IL seems a splendid working out of a difficult problem as there will cer- tainly be accidents if some precau- tions are not taken. WIDOW OF SHIP BUILDER. Mrs, Emeline H. Johnson Dies Clayton Home, Mrs. Emeline H. Johnson, widow of Simon G. Johnson, one of the most prominent shipbuilders of Clayton, N.Y., and launched during his time over forty lake vessels, died on Fri- day, after a long illness, aged eighty- eight years.- Mrs. Johnson was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Oades, Sackets Harbor, where she was born in 1828, her grandfather, a native of land, being a shipbuilder and having launched at his yards at Sackets Har- bor some of the vessels that helped | to hold Lake Ontario for the states | during the war of 1812, and her fa- At | Eng- | MIGHT USE CAUSEWAY WHY NOT ESTABLISH IT AT KINGSTON ? Barrieficld Lower Commons An Ex- cellent Site--A Better Place Could Not Be Secured Anywhere. The Militia Department having Practically decided that a new school of instruction in aviation wit} Started in Canada, there should be Some movement started in Kingston to have the school established here. In many ways Kingston is exception- ally well fitted to be the location of an aviation school. ' The water, the atmosphere conditions, the conven- fence to the manufacturing eentres of supplies and the fact that it is centrally located to several big ecit- ies so that the students' transporta- tion expenses would not be high all lend their part in making it highly suitable for such a school. ve Last year the school was situated in Toronto but in the fall it was moved to Cuba owing to the cold weather. The reason given at the time was that there was an urgent call for aviators form the Imperial Government and these in training must be graduated as soon as pos- sible, The call must have stopped as quickly as it began as there is no school now in_existence either at Cu- 'ba or Toronto. | There can ' be no doubt of the great assistance that Canada can be to the Imperial authorities: in the training of aviators for one of the most important branches of the ser-| vice, Hundreds of Canadians are! making a sacrifice of much time and | money to go to s¢hools of aviation | {in the United States. This money | | could be better spent in Canada and the course could be under the juris-| diction of the Canadian Military au- | thorities rather than having Cana-! fians g0 into a neutral country to| earn the art of flying, i 1 The level plains {near the Cataraqui River shore | Would prove all that could be de-| | sired as a site for the school. It is { now owned by the Government but is seldom or ever used. There are a few times a year that the artillery | | use this particular part for their { training ground, but often the offi- | cers prefer the Heights where there | { is greater field for the training of | artillerymen. | The plains, Tunning as they do | from the end of the Cataraqui Caus- | way to the point some half a mile | away, are very level and slope grad- | ually down to the river.

WILLIAM HIS BACKBONE SPRUNG. | The Snapping Bug Has a 'Spinal Column Like a Knife. The snapping bug has a spring in his back, like a knife. When mot in use as a spring, it serves him as a backbone, s0 you see he is a believer in scientific efficiency, and makes one vart of his machinery do the work of two. His spring backb or backbone spring if you prefer. gives him power to jump, which in turn gives him his name. Nature probably gave him the spring to help him on his feet wihen he's on 'his back. You've no- ticed how helpless some insects are when you lay them on their backs. Not this one, however. He slips his backbone out of its groove, and then slips it back again, suddenty. The spring pops him up in the air, he turns a somer sault and drops right side up. - Spring backibones are common in several other beetles. The beetle of the pestiferous wire worm, which destroys the farmer's crops, 'has a spring in his back. Other members of the family make their homes in trees or decayed wood. Will Have to Use Oil.
