The splendid/work of the Victorian | Order of Nurses was the subject of a | very helpful address by Dr. M.'T MacEachern, director-general of the order for Canada, who spoke before | the members of the local branch in| the city council chambers on Thurs- | day afternoon. Dr. MacEachern is | now touring Ontario to assist the | various branches of the order and his visit to Kingston will be repeated in the near future when further plans 11 be worked out Dr. MacEachern was introduced by J. B. Walkem, who acted as chairman of the meeting, and in his opening remarks, he told of the very great pleasure which he had in meeting the members of the Kingston branch of Victorian Order He remarked that he had just arrived from Sud- |bury, in the first stage of his trip {through Ontario, and that every com- munity he had did work accom ian nurses It must be recognized, continued the speaker, that the local tees were the back-bone of the order, as they raised money to assist in their own special work, as well as supervising the nursing, etc., carried on in the community, These com ¢ the ed by the Victor- mnittees also give many helpful sug- | gestions to the head-office in Ottawa It was the main object of the present bers of these committees and receive their suggestions to further the in terests of the order The order never was in a more ng condition, stated Dr. Mac and the demands for nurses are such that all the canno: filled In Sashatchewan ana Alberta where the speaker recent y made a tour of some four hundred miles the problem was gradually be- orders be ing worked out, but the possibilities | {for expansion were enormous, fs a great deal to be accomplished in Canada even yet, not only in the great Nordh-Weet, hut in | Eastern provinces, and tlis expansion | would benefit Voth the Victorian Order and the community at large. The doctor sketched the work and co-operation with the Red Cross So- clety, and similar organizations while many of the hospitals have adopted a plan to train the nurses of | the third-year class in this commun- ity work and public health service also | The order now gives a vear's train- | | ing in public health nursing at a uni- | versity, and now they are able to go jcut at the request of the local board {and carry on with anything demand- ed of them, It fs the policy of the order to go into a community and do |any work that is needed. Public {health, bed-nursing, school-nursing, | mothercraft, home-nursing, ete., all come within the accomplishments of the Victorian nurse, and in this way she had become an invaluable addi (tion to the national life of Canada. The order was now appreciated {much more than in years gone by. The people looked for the service, land the members of the medical pro- |tession were sympathetic to its ob- jects. Every doctor admits that the |order have always played the game, and with this. in view, a wonderful {future, full of co-operation between the various organizations to combat disease and ill-health, is promised. The speaker remarked that pub- |iicity was not usually prominent in the objects of the order, but that the | people wanted to know, and should be told, of the activities of the as- sociation. The press came in for some complimentary remarks from the speaker, during' which he stated that the newspapers were not only | great educative mediums, but that |they had always been very sympathe- | tie towards the Victorian Order. The {local newspapers should be assisted {in every way possible, as their object {#8 to inform the people of all com- {muity activities. Dr. MacEachern [then told of a publicity campaign {which was being being planned, and which would include literature of the {order, and exhibits and lantern slides. { In conclusion, Dr. MacEachern | stated that Canada was now divided |into three districts of organized ac- { tivities, the whole to be directed by | | the Ottawa headquarters, as follows: | the Maritime p es; Ontario and | Quebec; and the r Western prov- {inces. There will also be a special {nurse in each district to assist the local committees. Before the meeting was brought to a close, Dr. MacEachern answered a number of questions relating to the | work of the order, and a general dis- | cussion also took place among the interested members of the Kingston | branch who were present, Mr. | Walkem gave a short address on the | work done in this city during the Vacation Footwear SUITABLE FOOTWEAR FOR ALL OUT-DOOR SPORTS AND RECREATIONS. --TENNIS SHOES ~--BOWLING SHOES |, --SPORT OXFORDS --BATHING SLIPPERS -- BALL SHOES ~WHITE CANVAS SHOES NEWEST STYLES!

At a meeting of the Frontenac Cheese Board on Thursday afternoon, a letter was read from the Montreal Froduce Merchants' Association, stating that "all purchases of farm products, such as butler, cheese and eggs, bought on and after August 2nd, would be paid for on the basis of deducting the excess stamp tax at time of payment." A resolution was passed to that ef- | fect, and the board informed that the operation of this tax came into effect three times on the same 'ransaction; by the seller in the country; the Montreal merchant on bills of ex- jchange, and by the handler in the | country when dividend cheques were {issued in payment for milk or cream |sent to factories. The association suggested that the boards protest to the minister of fin- ance and promised co-operation in having the difficulty remedied. The board passed a resolution asking the secretary to write a letter to the min- | | ister of finance pointing out the hard- {ship as it was never intended that 2 ITiSH WHIG.

The way the tax affects the business, the factory pays the tax twice, because the Montreal buyer deducts the cost of stamps | when making out a cheque in favor | of a' factory, and the factory has to Pay stamps when issuing cheques to | patrons. How the Montreal merchan: | pays a stamp tax when the goods are | sold in Britain through agents is not | clear, but they claim that they do pay it.
