IIL For the Christmas Holidays, On Friday, December 19th, the Kingston schools will close for the Christmas holidays. It is the desire of the school editor that the school news should be continued during the holidays just as it has been kept going for the past month. To do this it will 'be necessary for the children to send or bring their little stories to the office. The School Editor will be glad to receive 'any contributions from the scholars of any of the schools. They should be sent in accompanied by the name, age and school of the writer and they will find their proper place in the School British Whiz. Any season- able stories of incidents of the holi- days will be gladly accepted, and it is hoped that the children will see to it that there is no letting up in the interest of their own news- paper during the holidays. The School Editor will always be at the service, of the children amd will be glad to have their articles. Make them short and snappy and let tem be original ae far as possible. v The Whig's Christmas Edition. The school children are asked to watch for the Christmas edition of the Whig, to be published on Sat- urday first.

A company has now been formed with a capital of $500,000, to pro- duce ofl from bituminous coal, to prepare fuel--e.§., gas, coke and bri- quettes--for domestic and industrial purposes, and to extract various by- products in the process of manu- facture.
