P Sproule, county director for Frontenac, who acted as chair- man of the gathering, called upon | E. H. Sills to give the first address of the afternoon. Mr, Sills, in his open- ing remarks, said it was high time that the farmers were getting some- [ thing, as they had been getting | j secony choice every time for some years. He stated that he was glad | to say that Premier Drury was tak- {ing no notice of the little dogs who {arg barking at his feet. , When speak- |ing of the Hon. Mr. Biggs, minister {of the provincial highways, he said that he thought it was pretty near time that he stopped explaining ail matters when charged by certain men with mere trfling incidents. He was convinced that the people of Ontario were satisfied with what Biggs a done for this country in the matter «f roads. Mr. Sills complimented the Drury governme:t for establishing a rural tredit system, which will great- ly assist the farmers. At this point of his remarks he took a swing at the Hon. J. D. Reid, mia- ister of railroads and canals, who, he claimed, was running this country into a debt of from sixty to seventy millon dollars a year in his manage- ment of government-owned railroads, Th> Hon. George E. Foster also re- ceived a rebuke. The speaker said that he thought we should be lenient with him, as he had been recently | Betting a new wife, and as Hie was be- tween seventy-five and eighty, he might not be responsible for all he did. Thre was one thing that the people of this country should not.tol- erate, and that was his (Mr. Foa- er's) statement to the effect that ha did not know which was worst--the Bolshevik, Soviet, Labor or Farmer. The Villages Robbed, Claude Brethen, who ran as U. F. O. candidate in the last provincial election, was the second speaker on the list. During His remarks he show- ed how that @uring the past fifty years the industries in the large cit- ies had. been stripping the country of farm hands. The population in the township of Camden, he said, had de- creased two thousand. He cited cases where industries which had been lo- cated in Newburgh, Camden East, Yarker, and other smaller places, had been absorbed into the larger mergers, thus robbing these villages of industries, Miss Balance, president of the Un- ited Farmers' Women's Association, for the county of Lennox and Ad- pdington, said that so far no organi- zation meeting had taken place in the county, but in the very near fu- ture, the women would get together and organize. She contended that the women of the rural communities were entitled to recreation, more than they have had in the past, and when the women's clubs were form- ed, one of the first things she con- sidered should be a recreation pro- gramme, A. E. Weller, secretary of the U. F. O. for the county of Frontenac, when called upon for a speech, con- gratulated the people for the large attendance, but said that instead of making any lengthy remarks, he would make way for the speaker of the day, Mr. Burnaby. Mrs. R. J. Vair, director for the women's movement in the county of Frontenac, gave an account of what had been accomplished in this coun- ty and urged upon the women the necessity of getting together, nine Bushell Boosts the Fair, Robert Bushell, the genial] man- ager of the Kingston Industrial Ex- hibition, who went. out to the pic- nic for the purpose of booming the Kingston fair, was spotted in the audience, and was called to the plat- form to make the closing speech of the day. He congratulated those who had organized this picnic on being able to get such a large attendance, and at the same time urged them to turn out in large numbers "to the Kingston Fair. He did not let the THE DAILY BRIT ee ---------------- spect to Dr. J. W. Edwards, M.P., Frontenac, with whom he had wag- | ered a newspaper controversy re- | cently. It was unnecessary for him | to go into detail, he said, but he | would. just leave it to them to de- cide who came out on top. | Mt. Bushell, when he took over | of the Kingston | I Fair, after the expiration of his good | friend Dr. Edwards' term, said he | found that forty-five dollars had bed | [Spent-annually for advertising per- | J poses. Mr. Bushell rad gradually in- creased this sum until a year ago last fall he had spent twenty-three hun- dred dollars, and then had a balance of fourteen hundred dollars to the good. Good advertising, and much thought and hard work has put King- ston Fair in fourth place in the list of two hundred and sixty. Mr. Bush- ell said that he would leave it en- tirely in the hands of those who at- tend the U. F. O. convention which will be called upon to select a can- didate, who will nieet Dr. J. W. Ed- wards in the next dominion election. Although the Kingston fair man- ager was the last on programme, and 'many people were ready to leave for home, they listened attentively to hys remarks, and he had a larger audi- ence when he finished than when he started. Notes of the Event. It had been expected that a ball game between Verona and Yarker would have been played, but on ac- count of the unsettled weather dur- ing the morning, the game was cao- celled, The Napanee band was on hand during the afternoon and rendered a number of selections which were very much enjoyed. /The place where the picnic was | held is an ideal location for such an outing. In the woods, where the speeches werq given, seats had been arranged for all the ladies. A great deal of credit for the suc- cess of this event is due to the foi- lowing men: M. N. Empéy, director for e U. F. O. for the county of Lennox and Addington; E, H. Sills, Napanee; Franklin Beckwith, ¥rins- ville; M. C. Burgess, Napanee; C. B. Brethen, Napanee; W. H. Hunter, the U. F. O. for Frontenac; John Shibley, Harrowsmith; E. E. Day, Joseph Watson, and J. L. F. Sproule, county director for Frontenac. During the chairman's remarks, Mr. Sproule said that if any of those | present had been with him when ha passed over some of the roads on the way to Varty Lake, they would have realized that the sooner the Biggs road policy was put into effect in that section of the country, the ride, The large gathering departed for their homes about 5.30 o'clock fully satisfied that they had spent one of Napanee; A.
