THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1917. ROAD PAVING NEXT YEAR THE BOARD OF WORKS DECIDES UPON CERTAIN WORK West, King and Clergy to Be At- tended to--Too Expensive to In-| troduce a Paving Flushing System Yet, There was a meeting of tlie Board | of Works on Wednesday evening with Alds. O'Conner, (chairman), | Couper, Nickle and Wright and | Mayor Hughes in attendance: | The question of damages to auto-| mobile springs was up when two bills came in. These will be paid] when the City Solicitor puts his O, K., on them.' Two applications for refund of ofl| taxes were ordered paid. These were | to Mrs. Marshall, Union street, and | A. C. Knapp, Ontario street, The question of flushing the| streets came up when the City En-| gineer read correspomdence from out-| side cities. There is evidently noth- | ing doing in this line' for Kingston ! with only four miles of pavement. | It could not be operated economically | without more pavement being con- structed. The Utilities Commission will be asked to put the services into shape for the paving of West street from Wellington to King, and the King GIRLS! WOMEN!

The Kingston Shipbuilding Com- pany is one of Kingston's biggest and busiest industries, and in an inter- view which the Whig had with J. F. McMillan shows the effect that the Military Service Act will have on the manufacturing concerns. The Kingstori Shipbuilding Com- pany has two boats under construc- tion and four more to be started as soon as these are completed and room is available. There are a num- who are in Class A2. One of these as least, is absolutely essential to the working of the yard. Trking this man as an example of those for whom the company is ap- plying for exemption, Mr. McMillan said: "If that man should be sick for a day the whole work would stop. It he is ordered to join the colors the same thing would happen and it is almost if not absolitely impossible to replace him. Other yards are cry- ing for such Skilled help. We have one and should have four." With regard to the unskilled la- bor, Mrg McMillan is not making ap- plication'for their exemption. He has full consideration of the situation in Europe, realizing it perhaps more than others because of the fact that his home is in the old country. There are unskilled men in the plant who must be kept or replaced to keep the yard running. If they are taken the company must take its chance with of labor which will be present after the first class is called. Mr. McMillan's conversation shows the crying need for National Service. There is no sorting out of the avail- able supply of skilled d unskilled help in any of the multffude of Can- adian industries to attempt to reor- ganize the commerical world of Can- ada on a most efficient basis. Now it is simply a case of take every per- son who does not put up a strong enough fight, into the ranks .of the the fighting force. Facts prove farms are lying idle, certain branches [of commercial life are being slowed up and in some cases stopped. Na- tional service of the Dominion to fit every man for his right place and then the same scheme applied to all of Canadian resources must come. \ | others, for the small available supply MANY BILLS COMING IN Bills Sent Into City to Pay For Springs. At the Board of Works meeting on Wednesday evening the question of paying repairs to broken automo- bile springs came up for discussion, when two biMs were received for springs broken on Raglan Road, It is understood that 'there is a shoal of these bills being put into the city and in a great many cases the ac- counts have to be paid. 'The repairing of the streets which was started recently has done much to overcome the trouble, Holes are dug out of the road and filled in with a mixture which makes it part of the level roadway. Part of the city has been greatly improved in this way and the City Engineer pro- mised to continue the work to the 1imit of his ability. The repairs for a few springs will cost the city more than repairs. In connection with the report on Joring Ald. Wright said that he had ved the bumps on Brock street as long as possible and bad moved to Gore street because there were pros- pects of some improvement dhere. He was still riding the bumps and holes of the city roads, When the decision was made to pave Clergy street he was' asked, "are you going to move back"?. Newton, N.B., Nov. 15.--Here is convincing evidence that = however much you may suffer from . liver trouble and consequent biliousness there is cure in the use of Dr. Chasé's Kidney-Liver Pills. ¢ Overeating is the most common cause of sluggish liver action.
