That the past season was the most successful iw the history of the Kin: ston Fair Association wes evidencr at the annual meeting of the offic- ials, directors and members held the association rooms on Wednesday afternoon. The reports submitted by the various ofeials were state- ments of splendid progress ovér all previous years, and a high note of enthusiasm and optimism prevailed throughout the entire meeting. Man- ager R. J. Bushell was lauded by all the speakers for his splendid work and in his retention of the office for the coming year, the association and jdistrict and city at large, are assur- ld of a prosperous season in 1922 ! Owing to the growing imterest in the fair and its prfepects, there was 2 record number of members and {friends in attendance, valuable suzgestions were put for- ward for the improvemeni of some of the departments, James Henderson, the president of the assogiation In 1921, gave a jshort addreds reviewing the work of | the past year, and of the success of the annual fair in September last. it | He told of the intcrest taken by the merchants and citizens of Kingston, and also of the inereasing value that the big event is to the city and sur- rounding country. Every year more | entries pour in from outside points, |end the fair is gradually working up ito a high place in the estimation of | patrons throughout the province. He remarked that the financial condi- tion of the association was highly | satisfactory, and that Mr. Bushell, {who had always worked unselfishly {in the interests of the fair, deserved | most of th redit for their success. | Mr. Henderson also paid a high tri- "bute to the directors and other offic- fals connected with him during 1921, and expressed the hope that the as- | scclation would continue to prosper |in the years to come. |" The treasurer's report was then read by Charles Adair, one of the {auditors, which showed that the as- | sociation had cleared nearly $4,000 |during the past season, which is a | record to be proud of by the mem- |bers. Mr. Adair also paid a glowing | tribute to Manager R. J. Bushell, who had given unstintedly of his services, and had built up the exhi- bition to its present sound condition.

Manager Bushell roused the mem- bers to great gnthusiasm in his short address, in which he outlined the progress of the fair during the past | few years, whem dt had grown from {an insignificant affair to one of. the langest events of its kind in the do- minion. He remarked that the exhi- bition this year would be the biggest ever, and that from. the present pros- pects the debt of the association would be wiped out and a substantial bank balance sown at the end of the season. Mr, Bushell stated that there were already 165 paid-up members for the coming year, and that applicatipns were coming in fast. In closing hinaddress, he ask- ed the members if they were desir- ous'of retaining both the field crop competition, in oats and corn, which was unanimously approved, and a number of entries were then sub- scribed. Owing to the satisfaction obt by the/departmental judges of last year, the same system will be again for the coming season. 'Beu- cral approval was shown with' re- gard to the prize Msts and no changes of ahy note will be made for the present.

J. THE NEW,PRESIDENT. Nu J. M. FARRELL Canadian Club. MORMONS ANSWER REV. PUTTENHAM Rev. John Puttenham: Your recent Anti-Mormon letter "in the Whig reminds mé of a conver- sation "between a Heathen and a Christian missionary. Heathen: 'The Bible is a very {bad baok." | Christian: Heathen: Christian: one?" Heathen: "No. told me it was bad." | What "5 you think of this Hea- then? Don't call him bad names. You are standing in his shoes. You |#ay that Mormonism is bad. What proof do you give? You quote a Presbyterfan! Suppose I should fol- ,Jow your example and Judge the Presbyterian church by what the Catholics eay about it, what would you think about me? * Would you not think that I was narrow and big- oted? What 'then do you think of yourself, when you attempt to judge the Mormons by what the Presbyter- jans say about them? Redlly can't you see yourself? Don't you keep a looking glass? In my Kingston sermon 1 said, "Mormonism is 'pure Christianity." I stand by that etatement. I chal- lenge you to erase one syllable of it, with logic, reason or the Bible. Jesus said, "By their fruits ye shall know them." That is the only just standard by which you can judge any religion. What are the fruits of the religion of the Latter Day Saints? Good health, prosperity, education, morality and spirituality. The devotees of this religion are the healthiest people in 'thé world. Here is the proof. The United States census for 1920 show that omly 64 Mormon babies out of a thousand die before they are Jue year of age, as compared with 101 out of @ thousand in the United States at large. The Latter Day Saints are the most pros- perous people in the world. Here is the proof. The Country Gentlemen for January 29th, 1921, on page 12 |says, "Utah should be called the home owner state. Out of 26,662 farms in Uteh seven-eights of them are owned by the men who operate them." The Latter Day Saints lead the world in educagon. Here is the proof. The Toronto Evening. Tele- gram for July 23rd, 1920, at page 11 anotes Dr. A. E. Winship of Boston as saying: * 'No state fs within heil- ing distance of Utah in an efficient attempt to solve the civic, industrial and educational problems of the youth between twelve and eighteen years."

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which excites the kid- neys, they become overworked from tne strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleep- lessness and urinary disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts or if | the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about four! ounces of Jad Salts from any phar- | mecy; take a 'tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and | in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, | combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and sti- i HER the highest etandard of. morality, Here is the proof. In a. letter pub- lished in Collier's Magazine, April 27th, 1911, on page 18, Col.

Such are the fruits of Mormonism 4s attested by scholars, statesmen, end moralists of international note.
