Mr. | Mills then laid the stone and de- clared it to be well and truly laid. | Turning to the audience he said: | "Every true citizen feels the glow | of a healthy pride in the city in| | which he lives, particularly, if it be the place of his birth. He loves her | Institutions. There are no stores { and streets and parks that -he likes | better than those in his own city. | The others may be better and grand- | | er than those in his own city, but | | he 'loves the city of his choice and] | the place of his birth, and will not] allow anyoné-to knock it, that is;| if he has the heart of a true citizen. | He has respect for those in authori-| | ty, who are selected by the will of! | the people, and may I add juUpt { here, that: there is no city that has | 'better reason to feel satisfied with | its schools and officials and teaching | staff than has our own beautiful city | of Kingston. Where can a scholar | or student acquire an education un- | der more favorable conditions. No- | where, not even in Toronto or Mont- | real, and our educational facilities {are growing in usefulness and im- portance all the while. 'I congratulate the people of Cata- raqui ward on the prospect of having a school that shall be second to none, with a fine assembly room, which I | trust will be much used by the citi- {zens in furthering good fellowship | generally and thus prove a benefit to and an inspiration for the scholars. The assembly room well patronized will help bind the scholars to the community, and' the community to the school. "My! how they love to see the older people coming about the.school and exhibiting an interest in their work, and hard work it is for the most of the kiddies. I often wonder if we older people have enough sympathy for the little fellow who is struggling with his lessons and other troubles--have we? ""May I say that our citizens shoul- der their tax burdens with a good heart. I know there are some grumblers, but this sound wears away and is lost in the multitude of peoples who do not grumble: A citi- zen wk no family, and large pro- perty Zaterests, is called upon to pay taxes to erect a $140,000 school for the fellow with a small ious and large family. What a splendid arrangement that is after all. "I am glad that it fell to my lot to have the privilege and great honor of participating in laying the corner stone of the Robert Meek Memorial School." I am glad that it has been called after a once busy man, who won an abiding place in our memory, a man who did more for the public schools of this city than any other man I know of. Therefore, it is very fitting that we should express our love and esteem by naming this school after him, and thus aid in perpetuating his memory.

Everyone--man or woman, who has goitre, will read with the great- est interest the following letter from Mrs. Wm. Lower. It was a happy day for Mrs. Lower when she heard | of Gu-Solvo. It will be a happy day for you when you decide to get rid of your goitre for ever. "Dear Sir,--I now take much plea- sure in writing you to thank you for Gu-Solvo. It sure is a wonderful medicine, and I sure can give it a great recommendation, as it cer- tainly has done wonders for my neck, which is progressing just dan- dy. I can see a big change since I commenced taking it. The two (2) bottles have taken it pretty nearly away. I am at the third (3) bottle now, which is taking it completely out of my system. I have gained in weight since taking it and the trou- ble which has been making life mis- erable for me for the last five (5) or six (6) years, has been complete- ly overcome. I have suffered every day with severe pains in my neck, and it was causing my eyes to pain a lot, and I was very nervous, so much so, that the slamming of a door would make me' terribly upset, and a good night's sleep was out of the question. I would certainly get out of bed the next morning feeling more tired and worn out than I did the night before. Then I decided to give Gu-Solvo a trial, and it is the honest truth, I commenced to feel better before I had taken all of the first (1) bottle of your wonderful medicine, and my condition just kept getting better, until I am now better than I ever was in oy lifa I have got back all my strength, can easily do my housework. My nerves are in perfect condition, and I can now sleep as well as a child. It is sim- ply wonderful the way I have gain- ed,~in fact I just feel fine all the time. As long as I live I will never lose an opportunity to say a good word for Gu-Solvo. you again, | stood higher than many cities in edu- cational matters, and it was a cause for congratulation that seventy-five per cent. of the pupils in our schools passed the entrance examinations, and reflected very favorably upon the teaching staffs. Herbert Moore, trustee for the ward, congratulated the residents! upon haying such a splendid building that was to be all their own. As their representative it has been his plaesure to assist in securing it to serve their needs and he was glad to be privileged to take part in the ceremony of laying the corner stone. | Allan Lemmon, another trustee of Cataraqui ward, was the next speak- | er. He said he received his school- ing in the old Cataraquli school, and one object he had in consenting to act as a trustee on .the Board of Education, was to see a new school built that would meet the require- ments of the children residing in the ward. That hope was fulfilled and its realization was a source of grati- ficatiion to himself and to all who | had the interest of educatign <P. | heart. He knew the late Robert | Meek"well and he paid a 'warm tri- | bute to his faithful servife as a | citizen. The school was a fitting | memorial to his life's devotion to | the cause of education and the inter- | ests of the city generally, and would | prove an inspiration to all who en- ! tered its portals. Among those present on the plat- form were inspector J. Russell Stew- art, E. O, Sliter, John McDonald, sec- retary of the Board of Education, trustee A. W. McLean, J. B. Cooke, W. A. §awyer, Rev. J. W. Jones, F. R. Anglin, architects, J. Power and C. G. C. Drever, R. Wallace, con- tractor, Lt.-Col. G. H. Gillespie. At the conclusion of the addresses all joined in singing the National anthem. Trade Secrets. There are at least two trade se- crets which have been s0- jealously guarded that they have remained close secrets for hundred of years, and may never be known to the world at large. One is the Chinese method of making the bright and brilliant color known as wvermilion, or Chinese red, and the other is a gold or silver. Among the Chinese and Turks these two secrets are guarded well. Ap- prentices before they are taken fer either trade, are compelled to swear an iron-clad oath to reveal nothing of what passes in the workshop. They must also belong to families of high standing, must pay a large sum of money as a guarantee, and must fur- nish certificates of good character and honesty. These secrets have been handed down faithfully from one gen- eration to another for hundreds of years. EE ---------------------- = er Rutherford H. Hayes, owned in X-Ray uuaras the Aviator. In the construction of airplanes a great deal of attention is given to the inspection of material which is de- signed to enter into the various parts of the machine before it is worked up in order to avoid the possibility of accidents which might occur due to the presence of some defect. The wood used is especially watched and only such pieces as appear to be of the most perfect character are select- ed in the first place, and after being sawed up a large percentage of this is rejected despite the care of the first selection. The leading English manufacturers of airplanes now make constant use of the X-ray for the examination of all wood and metal designed for use in the com- struction of their planes. The X-ray tube is contained in'a metal case, a hole being cut in the top of this to admit the upwardipassage of the rays.
