The degrees in medi- | cine will be conferred later on. The degree of doctor of divinity | | wag conferred on Rev. Colin Gordon I! Young, of Saskatoon, Sask., and Rev. Thomas Eakin, of Toronto, and that of doctor of laws on James Brebner ll registrar of Toronto university; Prof. || E. F. Scott, D. D., of Union Theolog- || ical Seminary, New York, formerly on ll | the staff of Queen's University, and i | Seager Wheeler, of Rosthern Sask. |! Rev. Mr. Young and Seager Wheeler were unable to be present to receive their degree in person. A special feature of the proceed- ings was the presentation of two very { fine oil paintings to the university. One that of Dr. D. M. Gordon, the ex- ll principal, and the other that of Prof. || James Cappon, who recently retired as dean of the faculty of arts, after A long and faithful service. These oil paintingsg adorned the platform, lj and fitting reference was made to il them by Principal Taylor. i The degrees were conferred by ll| Principal Taylor in the absence of i Chancellor Beatty. { Rev. Dr. D. M. Gordon acted as il | chaplain, and officiated at the open- ing devotional exercises. I] Principal Taylor, who presided announced that . W. Beatty the chan- cellor, regretted very much the fact that he could not be present. Dr. || Taylor remarked that these were not easy days for men at the head of big railways. At the present time, Mr, Beatty is in the west, but he sent word to the graduates that he was || exceedingly sorry to have to miss the Procecedings of convocation. | Dr. Taylor stated that the end of what had been a most strenuous ses- sion had now been reached. Every- one had been working migh pressure, but he felt that all could look for- ward in the near future, to further extensi of the university. Principal Taylor, after his brief address drew attention to the two oil paintings on the platform. Dr. Gordon he referred to as, "A dear old friend of Queen's" He said the Painting was being transferred to Grant Hall from the old arts build- ing. The painting is a full length picture and Dr. Taylor remarked have to be opened in Grant Hall from the students, staff and trustees 'land friends, and added that Dean | Cappon's tenure of office at Queen's was most important to hundreds of students who had been taught by him. He expressed régret that Dean Cappon could not be present. He is at present on a tour overseas. Both that of Rev. Dr. Gordon and Dean Cappon: are admirable por- its, and. will make a: valuable ad- on' to thé collection of portraits of celebrated men whch now adorn the halls of Queens. . Dr. Gordon Speaks. Principal Taylor called upon Rev. Dr. Gordon for an address, and the latter thanked Principal Taylor for his kind remarks. He also expressed his best wishes to all the graduates; and to all who were returning to the university next term. The day of graduation was a day eagerly looked forward to in college. life. It was the day when they branched out into thé world, an@® he appealed to them to take with them the spirit of serv- ice. Students,'he remarked, learned a great deal outside of ' the class room. "But if there is a'student who has passed through Queens' Univer- sity and who now requires tq have an appeal made to him for enthusiasm," said Dr. Gordon, "then he has not caught the right spirit of Queen's. The older graduates of Queen's will tell you that they received something they cannot express in words. It is 1] the richest treasure and might be re- garded as the treasure of Queen's." §| 'Since I retired from the university," sald Dr. Gordon, in 'his closing re- marks, "it has always given me great pleasure to have any of the students come to me for advice, and I want to | assure the students that if at any ¢ { il | Principal Taylor Presided and Ad- Terre. se { Seager Wheeler of Rosthern, Sask., {icans had a much higher estimation of the Canadiansthan some years ago | There was a time when Canada | (when mentioned over the border) | il| PORTRAITS OF DR.

Address to Graduates. Principal Taylor gave a most in- spiring address to the graduates, dealing with their work now they were leaving the college. Many left the university with the idea of mak- ing a lot of money, but Dr, Taylor re- minded the graduates that the quiet life must be considered as one of the essentials of happiness. Mere nosses- sions he pointed out did not bring about real happness. Pricipal Tay- lor talked on many matters of im- portance to the graduates and gave them some sound advice, Following the address of Principal Taylor, the degrees in arts, science, theology, and pedagogy were canfer- red, and the various prizes present- ed, and the proceedings closed with the benediction pronounced by Rev. Dr. Gordon, and the singing of the national anthem. Following this an adjournment was made to the university cafeteria where tea was served, the proceeds being devoted to the women's resi- dence fund at the college. HOSPITAL "GRANTS RAISED TO GE, FIFTY CENTS A DAY FOR A PATIENT. This is an Increase From Thirty Cents--Houses of Refuge and Orphanages Also to Receive More. Increased grants involving au ex- perdituure of about $350,000 will be paid by the Ontario government to hospitals, sanitoria, houses of : re- fuge and orphanages. The necessary legisldtion was introduced in the house by Hon, H. €. Nixon, provin- cial secretary. The Increases are made to meet the greatly increased ccsts of maintenance in the various institutions, and -will mean little | short of a doubling of the outlay of | the province upon the ingtitutions named, The most ortal increase is that to the a Sovpitire of the province, now receiving 30 cents per diem per patient. The government grant after the bill goes into effect will be fifty cents per day, and the estimated cost will be $178,913 over the present aggregate grant. In 1915 the average cost of mainten- ance per patient per diem was $1.64. In 1917 this had increased to $2.02 and in 1919 to $2.25. For some years previous to 1917 the hospitals received only twenty cents per pa- tient, this being raised to thirty cents in that year, From 1915 to 1919 the cost per diem for patients in sanatoria in- creased from $1.74 to $2.8). Pre- vious to 1918 the government grant was $3 per week. I: was then rais- ed to $3.50, or fifty cents a day. By the bill introduced it will be increas- ed again to seventy-five cents a day. "entailing an extra expenditure of $80,988. 'I'he government has also decided to increase from seven (0 ten cents per diem per patient the grant to houses of refuge, and from two to five cents per day that to orphan- ages. The former wil cost $31,001. 40 more and the latter an additional $23,754.78. X- The government has also decided to pdy to all hospitals the same grant for child patients as for adults.
