As Guests of Manager Johnson--the Kingston Agency Did Great Work During the Past Year. A few months ago the displaying of a piagnificent silver trophy in the window of Kinnear & d'Esterres jewellery store, caused considerable comment in city circles, particularly when, it was learned that this trophy was awarded the Kingston agency of the Manufacturers Life Insurance| Company, -for the collection of the largest percentage of new permiums during the year 1918. Naturally | this progressive agency, under the | ' ible management of Manager M: G. Johnston, was determined to exceed in 1919 the splendid results obtain- ied in 1918. The new business writ- {ten in 1919 exceeded the year 1918, | which in itself was a banner year by | | pearly 200%. In appreclation of | | the wonderful work accomplished, | Manager Johnston acted as host at a | sumptuous banquet at the Hotel Ran- | lolph Thursday evening to the King- | ston agency force. A. Mackenzie, manager of agen-| cies: L. A. Spalding, superintendent, 1nd J. P. Lyons, advertising manager of the home office, came down from Toronto to extend congratulations. Mr. Mackenzie In the course of his | | remarks mentioned the appreciation | | in which life insurance is held point- | | ing out that during 1919 the Manu- | factyrers Life wrote new assurances in excess of forty million dollars and | | that the insurance in force now ex- | { ceeds one hundred and thirty-eight | million dollars. { | The banquet proved a feast of rea- | | son and a flow of soul. Mr. Gates, of | | Kingston, entertained the guests in | his own ipimitable way and his se- lections were much appreciated. The following enjoyed the even- ing immensely, and left for their re- | spective flelds determined that 1920 | would see the Kingston branch the | company's banner agency in On-| tatio: Milton Storms, Picton; G.

To-night will be the last showing of the splendid feature picture pro- gramme mow playing at the Grand. Evelyn Greeley, the, dainty World Film star, is seen in "Bringing Up Betty," which is one of the best put- together pictures shown here in some time. It's a corking play, fall of good humor and fun, with a well- { written plot running through it. The photography in this picture is uspe- cially worthy of note, as it contains many of the most beautiful scenes ever thrown upon the screen. Miss Greeley is supported by a large ani talented cast, and this picture is among the best she has as yet appear- ed in. '"When Fate Decides," a five- reel Fox Film release, starring the famous emotional actress, Madiaine Traverse, will also complete its en- gagement to-night. The plot is cer- tainly well developed, and, is a photo- play with a great big heart appeal. Miss Traverse makes a point of ap- pearing in mone but the 'most ex- quisite gowns, and this feature will aspeal to all the ladies especially. There is also one of the very laugh- able Sunshine comedies that have become so popular, and an act of splendid vaudeville, 'This bill will bé Seu for the last time" to-night.-- vt. "Fiddlers Three" Coming. The Grand Opera House will have for its attraction for Saturday, Jan. 17th, matinee and night, John Cort's musical comedy, "Fiddlers Three." William Cory Duncan has provided the book and Alexander Johnstone, the writer of many pleasing tunes, has given "Fiddlers Three" a grace- ful and at the same time a delightful score, The cast, with a few excep tions, is the same that was seen at the New York Cort Theatre for eigh- teen weeks, and includes the beau- tiful and accomplished Belgian prima donna, Tavie Beige. Others that bring @ brightness and happiness to the score and dialogue dre Thomas Conkey; Tom Dingle, Edna Morn, Horace Sinclair, Katherine Ward, Ether Dwyer, Marius and others. The stage pictures are beautiful and fil the eye with a warmth and coloring that will please the most discriminating, The chorus has been chosen fo its youth and beauty and has peen highly criticized for its ability to sing with a brisk- ness that fascinates the eye end tic- "les the ear with the melodious music of the score.----Advt. / At the Strand. In spite of the intense cold weather the Strand was full, and the people fairly rocked with laughter at Mary Pickford's latest picture, "Heart of the Hills." In this story Mary Pick- ford takes the part of a mountain girl, whose family relations un- satisfactory, whose educhtion"is lim- ited, and whose sweetheart insists on making her bait her own book worms, replete with comedy incidents and rare pathos and capably led by the greatest of all screen stars. "Heart 0' the Hills" bids fair to be most popular attractions Strand for a iong time.

"tl The Late James Compton. 5 James Compfon, one of Kingston's most industrious and highly respect- ed citizens, passed away in the Ge- neral Haspital on Thursday. He was ailing for some time. The deceased was born in Buckinghamshire, Eng- land, and came to Canada forty years ago, becoming a resident of Kingston. He was an expert garden- er and followed that occupation. Mr. Compton was seventy-five years of age, and is survived by his wife, who | is ill in the hospital at the present time; two sons, George of Kingston and Harry of Vermillion, and two daughters, Mrs. Roylson of Shaunavoe. Cay A Soldier Missing. A despatch from Brockville states | that a returned soldier under treat- ment in a Toronto military hospital, and absent withcut leave, {8 béing sought in that city, He got off the eastbound train there on Wednesday morning, and was missed by the con- ductor because he had a ticket for Halifax. The department of soldiers' civil re-establishment when informed asked that the man be held if foun until an escort could go from Kings- ton and receive him. After leaving the railway station he reappeared and was detained, but later gave his guard the slip. He is said to be suf- fering from lapse of memory as the result of shell-shock at the front. He is twenty-five years of age, smooth face, fair complexion and about five feet in height. He wears a blue hos- pital band on the sleeve of his tunic. J. 8.
