K, Clarke, of Toronto, For- merly of This City Addressed Canadian Club at Luncheon. on Tuesday----Must be Careful of Our People to Build Up a Strong Na- tion. That the people must be educated to 'be ruled by scientific men along medical lines, was one of the out- standing points of an admirable ad- dress given by Dr. C. K. Clarke, of Toronto, before the members of the Canadian Club gt their noonday luncheon, held in the Frontenac Club on Tuesday. The address was of a most interesting nature. J. G. Elliott, the president, presided, and introduced the speaker, The members sat down #0 the luncheon promptly at 12.30 o'clock, and the service was of first-class order, In introducing' Dr. Clarke, was formerly at Rockwood tal, and who is now engaged with spécial work for the Ontario Gov- ernment, Mr. Elliott' welcomed the guest of honor as a distinguished Canadian and an old friend of many of the gentlemen present "We all knew Dr. Clarke in 'Tor mer days," added Mr. Elliott, "and we appreciated him in all the activi- ties in Kingston. Dr. Clarke has been away from Kingston for a number: of years, and Kingstonians have watched with a great deal of pride the success he has attained in the larger sphere to which he went." Dr. Clarke pxpressed his pleasure at being, back in Kingston again, and having the opportunity of meet. ing so. many of his old friends, and his stay in the he held a position at Rockwood Hospital, Dr. Clarke naturally took up the medical question in his address, and at the outset stated that he had héld who Hospi- | the opinion that the Insane were not being, properly cared for, even in Canada, and incidentally the speak- er took a good rap at politics, when he declared that politics were. re- sponsible for poor treatment given some of the unfortunates of wun- sound ' mind. "So far as social matters are con- cerned," sald the speaker, "politics are a curse to the comntry, The political patronage is the cause of 80 much deficiency in the matter of the service given in institutions. It is not a question of getting a man who can fill the position, but that of getting a position for a man to whom there is something owing, on account of service rendered the party." Dr. Clarke went to to tell "of steps wliich are being taken to cope 'with. questions of the utmost importance to the people's health. "W& must be careful of our people if we are to bujld up a strong nation," said Dr. Clarke, who also explained how the ' very best of care must be taken to pre- venet the spread. of disease. He sald that the people should' be edu- cated 'to be ruled by scientific men. In this regard it would be necessary to have both the support of the press and the pulpit. The passing of laws would not get you any- where, although there were many whoiwanted a law passed for every evil. The best plan was by way of educating 'the public. At the close, Mr. Elliott extend- ed to Dr. Clarke the thanks of the members for hls admirable address. HAVE 10 SLEEP IN" CHAIRS NEED FOR MORE HOTEL AcC- COMMODATION SHOWN HERE. Dr. C.-K. Clarke Told Canadian Club How He Came Near Being "Locked Out"--Was Given =a in Hotel Parlor With Fel- low Traveller Fromj Cobourg. The need of a new hotel for Kingston is being put forth every day. Dr. €. K. Clarke, a former Kingstonian, who addressed the Canadian Club on Tuesday, told of his experiences, and again the gues- EE "ITA. N-EQUAL" SAYS ED. JooeR No Medicine Did Him Any Good Till Me Teok Tanlac. "Tanlac bas convinced me that it has no equal fer people in the con- dition I was in, for it has made me feel like a different person," said Edward Hooper, 2062 8t. Clair Ave. Toronto, Ont. "For four years," he eontinued, "1 suffered from en awful case of stom- ach trouble. My appetite failed and the little I forced down hurt me. I felt dike there was a ump right in the pitipf my stomach and was con- stunty Yeiching up sour, undigested food. I'would get iso dizzy that I would almost fall, I had dull bead- aches and felt unfit for work. 1 jejt I was getting worse and don't be- lieve 1 could have kept up much longer, 3 "1 have taken folr bottles of Tan- lac now, and am ling fine.

Dr. Clarke arrived in the city Monday might, Every room in the hotel he registered &t was filled, also all' the other "joints," as the clerk referred to them, but the management did the very best they could for him, and that was to let him. share the parlor with a fellow traveller from Cobourg. The hotel man: ent did the very best they could for Dr. Clarke, and as they were filled to capacity, therefore théy could do no more, but wha about the other fellows 'who, arriv- ed in the city later on 'that. night? It is stated that every nigh travellers have to sleep in chairs, in the rotundas of local hotels, and on a night of big "doings" in the city it is stated thay they are very iucky if they are able to get a chair; Travellers who are wise to local conditions have Foon known to go through to Broel as the case may be, spend the night there, and then double back to Kingston the next morning. This is bad husiness for the travellers, and it is also bad business for the city, True, this is not a good ad- vertisement for thaigity, but never- theless it is a fact.

Speculation as to Whether He Will be First Sea Lord. {ondon, April 9.--On the dis- persal yesterday of the Grand Fleet Vice-Admiral Sir David . Beatty hauled down his flag as command- er-in-chief. - All the newspapers publish ar- ticles on the historic occasion, dwelling on the fact that its pur- pose was achieved with the com- plete destruction of the enemy's naval power. They pay tribute to Lord Jellicoe as the organizer and leader, and Viee-Admiral Beatty as a first-class fighter, who crowned Lord Jellicoe's work. There is some speculation whe- ther Sir David Beatty, now unem- ployed, will be offered the post of First Sea Lord, the importance of which position, it Is now pointed out, has never been greater in view of the possible effect of the League of Nations, upon Britain's naval policy. | It i$ also urged that a properly organized naval general staff must never again be allowed to lapse. MINEFIELDS CLEARED. Swetlen Has Swept. or Destroyed "Pills" Planted in War. Washington, April 9.--The Swed- ish Ministry of Marine has notified navigation interests that Sweden has taken up or destroyed the mine and minefields planted during the war in Swedish territorial waters as a protection against belligerent sub- marines. A copy of the notification received by the State Departmens warns shipping against possible danger from stray mines during storms. ' IN FLANDERS FIELDS The Whig has prepared a very beautiful calendar print- ed in three colors and tontain- ing the immortal poem by Col. John McCrae, known now wherever the English lan- guage is spoken--"In Fland- ers Fields." This beautiful lyric of the war was written by Col. Me- Crae, of Montreal, during the second "Battle of Ypres. As an inspiration to war giving and war sacrifices it strikes a major note, The illustration that adorns the calendar i¥ one of unusual attraction. It shows the red poppies blooming amid the crosses on Flanders fields, while in the aif above dre the * spirits of the departed heroes calling to those who remain to "take up our quarrel with the foe." It shows them throw-, ing the torch from their fall- ing hands with their parting admonition to "hold it High," as otherwise, , "We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields." These calendars will be dis- tributed free to every reader of the Whig who cares {o call at the office and ask for one.
