As president | he was a capable, energetic head. As | a friend and associate of the gov- ernors he held a warm place in their affections and with sincere sorrow | we have learned of his passing into | the great beyond. The assoeiation | offers heartfelt condolences to those bereaved. During the interregnum the asso. ciation has lost by death the follow- ing governors: Vice-President H.R. | | Duff, Dr. R. K. Kilborn, Messrs. R. | | Meek, R. J. McKelvey and Prof. Coad. Sympathetic and fitting tributes were | paid to the deceased, After discussion the governors con- | curred in extending the lease of the | hospital to the Dominion government | until August 10th, 1923 and there- | | after from year to year. A commit- | | tee of Dr. J. C Connell, W. F. Nickle, | | K.C,, and J. G. Elliott was named to | | consider the future conduct of the | | Institution and to take such action as is deemed desirable, It was felt i | that the institution was too large a | | character to be carried on as a local | | institution and endeavors will be | | made to have it maintained as a fed- | | eral or provincial sanitorinm. It | | would be a great loss to scrap such a fine equipment as the Donmiinion gov- | | ernment has provided for the care of + | the soldiery suffering from tubercu- wee | lar complaints. Those present at the meeting were Drs. J. C. Connell, D. E, Mundell, W. T. Connell, R. J, Gardiner, W. Gib- | son, E, C. D. Macallum, Messrs. G. Y. Chown," J. A.

She is now visiting the towns and cities in Canada. Since she came to Kingston on Wednesday, she had been successful in obtaining $400 from the local Chinese. \ Miss Chew said that one reason for collecting this money was that she thought it was her duty to do some- thing for the country of her birth. Her brother, who entered the univer- sity the same time that she did, in- tended to graduate as a doctor but he was killed by an automobile in Cali- fornia. Short addresses were given by Rev. W. T.
