Her dancing was among the best seen here for some time. "Ben Blair," an unusual pho- toplay of life on the prairie and on Broadway, with the celebrated actor, Dustin Farnum, in the title role, was an exceptionally good picture. It possesses action aplenty, and a theme that will hold and thrill. .

Shortly af-| terward he went to the trenches. { | | | HONORS FOR 21ST MEN. * -- + Captain Albert Peter Miller + and Lieut. George Speer, 21st %| Battalion are awarded the | military cross, Sergt. E.

There are four brigades and am-| munition columns with a divisional| ammunition column here. The old Kingston drilling brigade command- er, Lieut.-Col. R. Costigan, Montreal, is In charge of division ammunition | column, and is looking as young and | fit as when on Barriefield, with| Lieut. E. W. Rathbun back in the good old days when it cost something to be an officer in the Canadian] service, and the work was as strenu- | ous in the artillery as at the present | time. One of the chief sources of pride of gunnery officers was to} carry out the syllabus no matter how | big the head might be after the night | before. The gunners who have been left on this side of the pond feel keenly | the fact that they have not received | the call of the powers that be. Al number have worked just as hard at home as any of the chosen ones, and | in some cases harder, ! from | beaver FOR GALLANT CONDUCT A Number of Kingston Officers Are] Kingston is interested in the fol-| lowing names of Canadians mention- | ed by Sir Douglas Haig, British com- | mander-in-chief, for gallant distin guished conduct in the field: | Staff--Brig.-Gen.

CAUGHT AT COBOURG. Young Soldier is Alleged to Have Overstayed His Leave. A young man, who was taken in charge at Cobourg, was brought down to Kingston on Thursday night, and is being held at the police station. He was a member of Barriefield camp, and it is alleged that he overstayed; his leave. ¥ " The military authorities are put- ting forth every effort possible to round up all the men who overstep the mark in this way. Soldiers are given leave of absence, and of late many of them have been taking a few extra days on their own account. When brought down to Kingston the accused was attired in a suit of uveralis having discarded his suit of ' ow , Ladies' Outing Hats.

The mas-| terpiece is a film version of Cervan-| tes' famous work, 'Don Quixote," in| 5 parts, in which that famous come-| dian, De Wolf Hopper, is seen to] great advantage. Ford Sterling was | also shown in a laughable Keystone comedy in 2 parts entitled '"'His/| Pride and Shame." Mary Pickford was also seen in "Won by a Fish," and Fred Mace in "Josh's Suicide." | Other good reels were also shown completing a very strong programme, | The same bill will be repeated again! to-night and at the Saturday shows. | -------- "BATTLE CRY OF | PEACE" | Causes Stir in Canada--Picture En.| dorsed by Officials, "The Battle Cry of Peace" is aid-| ing recruiting in Canada. The chief| recruiting officer of Ontario made a speech endorsing it after seeing it] shown in a private exhibition at To-| ronto. Mayor Church, of Toronto, | issued a letter endorsing the picture. | He said: { "This picture, although its warning| is primarily directed to the United | | States, cannot be viewed by any true Canadian without arousing in his breast an intense and burning indig- nation of the wrong suffered by hap- less Belgium and at the same time an intense desire to serve the cause| of his own King and country. The] incidents depicted are a reproduction of what actually happened in Bel- gium. It is only preparedness and power behind preparedness that can| avert such a thing from our own] loved country." "The Battle Cry of} Peace" has been accepted by Canada| as an object lesson for it to heed also. This picture is being shown at the, Strand Theatre here on Monday,| Tuesday and Wednesday of next| week under the auspices of the 146th] Battalion, and should not be missed by any one in Kingston.
