J Renton submitted a interesting report on the wor the industrial comm port is as follows: "The industrial committee paid a visit to the 8chool of Navigation and the class for marine engineers now being. gondycted in Queen's versity buildings Those present were Trustee Lemmon, chairman of the board; trustee W. Cook and Messrs. C. Macpherson and John | Birkett, The visit was most interest- ing. The classes were well attended by an exceptionally | students and the indicationg were | that every provision is being mada | for the operation of successfui classes. "The on the seventh session. {primate venture by Capt McMaster, of the Montreal Transportation Com- pany, it' was transferred to the uni- | versity in 1914, "rom a small class | it has gradually grown until it now hes. an enrolment of forty-one, The equipment of books, charts, tables, | etc., is very complete. The school is { instructed by Capt. A. Barrett, and is under the direction of Dean Clark, of the Shience faculty. "The average daily attendance is 12; m tiphe? registered, 41; studying for mast € mates' do ters' inland certi- ficates, 7; mutes' do., 7; mates' min- or do., 1; general knowledge, 12, "Number who have passed exam- inations, 8; number to try, 21. Those who attend for general knowledge usually take the examination set ny the university. It is of a more searching character than set by the department of marine and fisherjes. "About fifteen out of the total number did not hold any certificate. The balance either have masters' or amtes' inland or minor waters certi- ficates, or mates' coasting certin- cates. The highest grade of certi- ficate is forf masters' coasting. No one as yet has tried this examina- tion, but several are expected to try this month. There are only two sf these certificates in Kingston, and these were obtained elsewhere before this s¢hool was in operation, "The inland waters' examination includes dictation, arithmetic, cowm- position, seamanship, chartwork, lighthouses, masters' business, ruie of the road, deviation, pelorus, cargo, and ship construction; and coasting trade, in addition to the subjects named, includes meridian altitudd, mercatons, amplitude, azimuth, sea- tant, signals, longitude ,etc. "This year a new class for marine engineers was formed, with F, Nor- ris, chief engineer of the steamer Westmount, in charge. Beven stud- ents have already passed the's ex- amination and others are pre, k ing. The class is open to engineers for all grades of certificates. "The courses for marine engineers consist of reading, writing, arith metic, management of boilers, the barometer, thermometer and sali- nometer, incrustation and corrosson, tanks, burnkers, pumps, furhace bars, valves, dynamos, electric light machinery, steering engines, mecu- anical drawing, etc. "The number registered is 22; average daily attendance, 16; study- ing in fourth class, 4; third class, »; second class, 7; first class, 2; gen- eral knowledge, 4. "Number who passed, fourth class, 4; third class, 1; second class, 2. A number of those attending the school this term will not have completed their studies this term, so will attend next year. There will be a number of engineers who do not reside in the city attending the school next seas- on. ittee schoo! of navigation is now FORMER FRONTENACER DIES || Pleuro-pneumonia Hastenéd End of Bright Young Man. In the death of Dawson Beatty || Walker, on Tuesday afternoon, Feb. 16th, in" his eighteenth year, St. Catharines lost one-of its most popu- lar and highly respected young men. His death was a shock to everyone. He took the "flu" and it developed to pleuro-pneumonia, but in spite of the best medical care and nursing he passed away. Dawson was a general favorite with old and yoiing alike, his charming personality making him a host of friends. He 'was born in Florida, July 10th, 1908. The funeral take place on Friday, at 2 p.m., at the home of his sister, Mrs. Thomas Cain, 47 Berryman aventie, service being conducted by Rev. A. W.

On Thursday afternoon Dr, S. A. Mitchell combined bis lecture of the afternoon, "What Astronomy Owes | to the Engineer," the Universe" which the last of am excellent course on | astronomy to a large and apprecia- tive audience in convocation hall. At the close of the lecture {R. Bruce Taylor thanked Dr. chell for the illuminating course of { lectures he had given. He said that | Queen's was always glad to welcome |' | the lecturers, and especially when { they were her graduates, Dr. Taylor remarked that the lecture would | cause one to think of the small part | man plays in the universe and yet { what a profound knowledge he has | of its workings. Dr. Mitchell, in | replying, stated that he was glad to return to Queen's once more. He | had always found the grounding in | mathematics which he had received { under the instruction of Prof, Dupuis | ene of the best, and one which had { been essential to him in the study of his profession. Showing first of all slides of the moon, Dr. Mitchell pointed out the | features visible, such as plains, and | high mountains, which equal in | height those of the earth, which is | remarkable as the moon is but one | quarter that of the earth in diamet= er. It is interesting to note that | the height of the mountains ig cal- {calated from the length of the shad- {0w cast as seen in the plates taken. { The moon is a barren body which has no life on it due to the absence of air. Astronomy owes mnch to the en- gineer in the perfection of 'the tele- scope. The various types of instru- ments used were shown on the screen from the Galileo's first to the huge ones of the present day. The lectur- er has done much work with the tele- scope used at the University of Chi- cago, which ig the largest refracting telescope in the world. This instru- ment is sixty-two and a half feet long, has a forty-inch lens, weighs fifty tons, twenty of which 'are mov- able parts, which can be moved by electric motors. The dome in the observatory weighs one hundred and forty tons, is ninety feet in diameter, and can also be moved, Another form of telescope used is that for work on the sun. This is known as the tower telescope, Here also, the engineer has to provide a very steady tower which will be un- affected by the wind. Mount Wilson, California, has a couple of thasa tele- scopes. < The stars are popularly described as being numerous as the sands on the sea shore, but with the haked eye We can see Iéss than five thousand, while the largest telescopes bring within the power of vision two hund- red million of stars each of which is like the sunt and many thousands of which are much more brilliant than the sun which appears bright to us merely because of its proximity. Dr. Mitchell gaid that many people were disappointed when they looked through a telescope and saw that the stars were not, as they had believed, five or six pointed, but were really like the sun in shape. Many pictures were shown of the milky way, which the lecturer impressed was made up of a large number of separate suns. At Mount Wilson observatory, con- siderable work has been done in measuring the distance to Betelguese and yet more work will have to be done before the discussion is conclud- ed. The universe is indeed large when it is learned that some of the light reaching the earth left Its source two hundred thousand years ago.

Newman & Shaw | "THE ALWAYS BUSY STORE" the earth we are amazed, and yet it is but small compared with the sun which is in turn insignificant when compared with the rest of the universe. Yet the human mind is in- finite and fathoms space and learns much about the universe Dr Mitchell concluded with the remark that as- tronomy, more than any other sci- ! ence, has show the power of the hu- man mind to fathom the mystéries of life.
