Then, there was a programme of sports, for sports with the travellers, form an important item. And this part was well cared for. In addition, there was a splendid programgne of music and dancing. A special feature of the pro- gramme of sports, was the duck race, in which three of Kingston's leading Citizens took a prominent part, name- ly, Mayor Hughes, United States Con- sul Johnson, and Canon FitzGerald. Eadh of the contestants was present- ed with a white duck, and the task they were called up to perform, was that of getting the ducks in through dent of the Toromto Recruiting League. He spoke at many meetings in Torontosand other cities and towns in Omtario during the last three years, withdmawing from d@otive pas ticipal in recruiting work .only when his health became impaired. Mr. Alen was bdrn in Odessa, Ont., August 20th, 1867. His father was the late Rev. H, I. Allen, a Methodist minister of Ottawa. After attenditg Albert College in Belleville, Mr. Al- len entered the Insuramce business, and in a few years was made district manager of the Standard Life Imsur- ance Co. at Kingston, which position he held until he took charge of the Mutual Life Insurance office in Mon- treal.

Kingston, July 23.-- (To the Edi- : you kindly allow me through your valusble paper to draw attention to-the-military pleot-in the cemetery at Cataraqui. It consists of nearly three-quarters of an acre, and was assigned for military burials of both officers and men, but since the grant I cannot find that it has been systematically cared for. 1 drew attention to the fact some years ago, and pointed out the cure given the graves of the hero fighting men of the United States in contrast to our neglect. The late Government promised to give it "serious con- sideration," butsnothing was done. We are now having constant de- mands for military interments, and I lament to say they are likely to in- crease rather than diminish with the great number of sick and wounded quartered here. The time is, there- fore, 'opportune for action. Cannot we raise a fund by Government aid and voluntary subscription *~ nut the lot in order--I1 am sure tn. =idiera themselves would assist in the actual work of beautifying it--and placing: a little cross at the head of each grave with the man's name, reg- ment and number, similar to those at the front. , Could we not also have a decora- tion day similar to that of the Unit: | ed States, when each grave would be specially cared for and the loved ones of our hero lads know that their sons were not treated as "stringers in a strange land," a land for whose 'life and liberty" they had made tha great sacrifice. I understand a branch of the Great War Veterang' Association, in] affiliation with that in vogue now | throughout Canada, is to be formed, | and I feel no better work cotld mark | its inception than this effort te make | real this last tribute of affection and | respect to the niemory of their fallen comrades.
