THURSDAY, JANUARY, 19, 1922. THE DAILY BRITISH WHIC. 'I. C. MCKLE ADDRESSES | CADETS OF THE RM. On "Adm Civic Administration--! Other Addresses to be Given Weekly. * The first of a series of Je Prominent Kingston r an innovation Introdu § Gencra! Sir A. Mvered at the Roya! li Before tho assembled Wednesday afternoon g » C. Nickle, The commana It for some time tliat 'should be provided with tunity of grasping the principles which govern the commercial world, "and he, therefore, decided that on each Wednesday afternoon, th ad ets would attemd a lecture of this kind to be given by thie courtess local prominent men. The add of Mr. Nickle was the inaugurs of this feature, his subject bejur "Civic Administration," and next 'Week Principal R. Bruce Taylor will) be the speaker for the occasion. | Anjong those who have already pro- mised to visit the R.M.C. for purpose are Elmer Davis, Prof. W. Mitchell of Queen's, and J. . mpbell, In Introducing Mr. Nickle, Genoral gcdonell remarked that the late yor had already forgotten more ut civic affairs than most vecple ew, and besides being a man of Ig experience in the interests of city of Kingston, was a great nd of the college, therefore, his ence at the college to deliver an ress on civic administration was eed a happy choice. | Mr. Nickle stated that it was a tri-| Plo honor to address the cadets of the R.M.C., first; because of the fame Of the Sir Arthur Currie hall in which he was speaking; second, of | the privilege to speak to the cadets of a college which has done so much | Mot only for Canada, but for the British Empire, and whose graduates Rave made the name of the R,M.C. | famous the world over; and third, | that he had been asked for (he dress by General Macdonell. Iie cu-| logised the general for his great ser vice to the country, and stated that during his tenure of command at the college, the city had had no bettar * friend. : The matter of civic administra- ton is a very large one, continued | the speaker, and, therefore, only the most important parts might bel touched in a short address. "It is| Astonishing how few young men| Know anything of the administrati; | of their city, and young Canadians! &re usually quite unconcerned ro-| garding the inner workings of the; community in Which they live. Why are streets built; what is the source of revenue of a city; and how is the| money expended?" asked Mr. Nickle. | It was pointed out that the mun- felpal council is elected each year, and that it is an honor to face the polls, and no disgrace to be defeat- ed.

SPORTING NEWS Will Select A Referce, The executive committee of the County Hockey league is experien;- ing some difficulty in getting a rof- eree for the Verona-Wolte Island geme for Saturday afternoon. Ver- ona named a couple of officials, who { would be acceptable to them, and Woife Island also suggested sone name. Wolfe Island will not accept the men euggested by Verona, and Verona will not agree "0 the Wo:re Island eelection. The executive will have to appoint a man. At the Allen, Elaine Hammerstein's latest pie- ture, "The Way of a. Maid," which opens to-day at the ANen Theatre, is eaid to be a springhtly romance of intriguing charm. "The Way of a Maid" deals with the complications arising out of th esoapades of Nadia Castleton, orp an and heiress. Dressed in the fanc ball costume of a lady's maid, she is mistaken by a tipsy young million- aire far the real thing. Entangling situations in infinite variety present themselves one after another when Nadia, posing as her own maid, ac- cepts the attentions of Tom Lawlor. An Harold Lloyd comedy, the Fox News, and the popular serial, "Hur- ricane Hutch," completes a perfect programme.--Advt. Queen's vs. Collingwood? Many enthusiastic backers of | Queen's junior O.H.A. team think | that the snappy sextette will go a long way in the series this year and it they do there is a possibility that they will run up against a junior team from CoMingwood, the old hoc- key contender of the city of -King- ston in many past battles. The northern town always put out fine hockey teams and this year seems to have turned out a wonderful jundor squad, The Collingwood juniors have played four games to date and have got into double figures in every game in the scoring line, They have scored 654 goals and have had eight scored against them. This looks like a long trip through the series for them, and, as Queen's have been showing up almost as well, the two may possibly fight out 'the final championship series. At the Strand.

City Hockey League. There was no games in the City Series last evening, as fce was hard to get and the players preferred to wait until better weather prevailed. In the junior series St. George's and St. Mary's were ready to play, but the snow . made the ice so heavy At Griffin's Theatre.

Queen's and Frontenacs Both Won Their Games Queen's and Frontenac juniors Were the winners of the junior O. H. A. games at Brockville and Cornwall on Wednesday evening. Queen's de Teated Cornwall by a score of 5 to 2, while Frontenacs shut Brockville out by a score of 3 to 0. The Cornwall game was very closely contested dur- ing the first period, and Cornwail was leading by a score of 2 to 0. In the second and third periods, the Queen's boys showed that they had good condition and team play. At the end of ihe second period Queen's made the score 3 to 2 in their favor In the last twently minutes they sim- ply ran away from Cornwall and the boys slipped in two goals. In 'he first twenty minutes, the Queen's boys found considerable difficulty in getting used to the rink. The boards close to the ice are whitewashed and once the puck is raised above thao whitewashed boards, it is very dirfi- ult to see it. The win on Wednesday evening will put Queen's in good position to win the group. The local team was handicapped on gecount of the ab- sence of Boucher, the crack wing player who js confined to the hospi- tal with an injused knee. Frontemacs Also Winners, Frontenacs outplayed the Brock- ville team from start to finish and won out by a score of 3 to 0 'n wyandottes, 5 cock, 2 and 4 hen, 5 and 10 cockerel; 6 pullet, 3 pen, Mr. Jinks, black langshan, 3 ang 4 hen, 3 cockerel.

The convention was one of the most suc cessful ever attended, and they were all eminently pleased with the man- ker in which it was conducted, and expressed great appreciation of the efforts of the Kingston president, W, Y. Mills, to make their stay in the city pleasant by providing for their entertainment. Many vigited the public institutions, including the Royal Military College, Portsmouth penitentiary, Rockwood asylum and Queen's University, and were greatly impressed.
