The Portsmouth Council got "into | harness" on Monday night, when the | inaugural meeting was held. Reeve | Jas. Halliday presided, and the other | members present were: Councillors | R. J. Baiden, M. J. Kennedy, Joh R. Marks, and the new member, Alex- ander Atkins, who takes the place of | Councillor Clark, who retired. There was only a small amount of business on the slate, and the council had an | early adjournment. Christopher Baiden and John M. Kennedy were appointed auditors, and H. 8. Asselstine was appointed a member of the Board of Health. It was decided to ask the peniten- tiary authorities to complete the | work on the breakwater, The question of the memorial to be erected for the men from/ Ports- mouth who paid the sacrifice in the war was also under discussion, and the couneil will get it under way this year. A monument is to be erected in the park, and will have the names of all the men from the village who s served overseas. It is likely that at the next meet- Ing Arrangements will be made for | the sending of a deputation to Ot- | tawa tp see about needed improve- | ments to the village. * | : I : f Theatrical 'Fiddlers Three" Coming. One of tffe most remarkable wo- { men in the theatrical world is Miss | Tavie Belge who comes to the Grand | Opera House on Saturday, Jan. 17th, | matinee and night, in John Cort's | sparkling production of the musical | play "Fiddlers Three". Miss Belge, | standing of the distinguished speak- | j er, nevertheless took the opportunity | to say, "Doubtless, there are few in | the audience who have not been, like | myself, violently opposed to many of | | the ideas he has advanced." } | The attitude of a number of pro- |: | minent Toronto women who listened ! |to the lecture, or read reports of it, Prot. strongly resembles that of tinged MacNaughton, their attitude with amusement as well as charac- terized by more or less indignation. Alderwoman Mrs. L. A. Hamilton says: "I don't think we need worry about Prof. MacPhail. He seems te be suffering from a bad: attack of pessimism. lations, since he gives not even a hint of what we believe, which is that man is a spiritual being. "I don't think that women need worry at all about his utterances or take them seriously. They are so re- actionary as to be quite ludicrous." OO-OPERATION IN EDUCATION. Subject of Address Before Parents Teachers' Association. An interesting meeting of the Par- ents' and Teachers' Association was held in the Collegiate, Monday even- ing, the Rev. J. W. Jones presiding. A hearty vote of thanks was moved to the committees of ladies who so ably carried out the social evening held in December, The general and financial reports, | presented by Miss McCormack, for the (rl Guides, were most encourag- ing. In the discussion that took place, the advantages of equipping the large assembly room of the Col- legiate with seats, heat and a pro- jecting lantern were pointed out by several members of the association. W. G. Anderson, f the Collegiate | whose work"as prima donna of the { Antwerp Opera House ended with | | the coming of the German army, is | | but a little over a year in this coun- | try. Forced out of her beloved Bel- | glum by the Hun, she traveled { through Canada and gave her voice | | for the suffering millions she had | left behind. Coming to New York, she found herself penniless, but through the perception of Mr. Cort, she was placed in the leading role of | | "Fiddlers Three," The sensation | | created by her voice, her beauty and | her dramatic fire, is now theatrical | history and it js something out of | the ordinary for a new singer to | make theatrical history in these swift moving days of Jazz. Made into rip- | pl.ng melody, the story of the Violin | Maker of Cremona who discovered a way of making the most beautiful has become during its one year of life, a musical comedy classic. The Cast is a large one and includes Tom Conkey, whose baritone voice has been a feature of the New York Hip- prodrome; Tom Dingle, whose ec- centric dancihg has made him one of the most imitated of jazszers; Gilbert Clayton, who, as Paganini, the sata- nic violinist, presents a startling pic- ture; Horace Sinclair, the vicaclious Edna Morn, Ethel Dwyer, and one of the most beautiful choruses of récent years. The production of "Fiddlers Three" is one of John Cort's great- est achievements, --Advt, At Griffin's. A large audience witnessed last evening the initial showing of Geral- dine Farrar's mammoth spectacle, "Flame of the Desert," which is her latest Goldwyn photoplay, and pre- sents a powerful love story of mystic Egypt filled with the color and ro- mance that is bred deep in the heart of the sand-swept far east. A mag- nificent spectacle revealing a great uprising in the Far Bust and a wo- man's courageous fight for love and happiness. Don't miss seeing "Flame of the Desert" or you will have miss- ed seeing the greatest productipn seen in Kingston in many months. In addition to the above feature, our usual line of added attractions are shown, and of first importance is the clever comedy picture, in which that peer of comedians, Larry Semon, takes the honors, "Dew-Drop Inn" is the title of his latest laugh maker, and judging by the frequent burst of applause and uproarious laughter heard amongst the audience last evening, this picture easily sustains his reputation of being the best in his linc. This particularly good bill will be shown to-night and agaln to- morrow.~--Advt. { SOME SWEET Music IN THE POLICE CELLS Youth, With Mouth Organ, Played "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles." There was sweet music in the po- lice cells on Monday morning, and people who had business at the Po- lice Court wondered who was respon- sible for the sweet tones, for as a rule everything is pretty sad with the unfortunates who fall into the police nets. An investigation was made, and it was found that a youth charged with theft, had a mouthorgan, and he was amusing himself, and at the same time entertaining some other unfor- staff, gave a very practical talk on "Co-operation in Education." The parents were especially interested in the discussion on co-operation be- tween teacher and parents, After the meeting adjourned, the building was Mghted throughout to permit of inspection. The annual meeting will be held in February, OFFICERS WHERE INSTALLED At Meeting of Granite Lodge of Odd- fellows Monday Night. On Monday ro ght, D.D.G.M.
