(GAVE INTERESTING TALK ROTARY CLUB LUNCHEON 'Rotarian Howard Kelly Tells Members About Local Pic- ture Frame Industry. An interesting address on 'Picture Frames," by Rotarian Howard Kelly, featured the weekly luncheon of the Kingston Rotary Chib, held at the Britiech-American hotel on Friday. Rotarian Kelly was asked to speak under his own classification at the club, and his talk provided some in- teresting information for his fellow members of the club. In the absence of the president Leman A. Guild, who was out of the city, the chair was oc- cupied by the vice-president, A. N. Lyster. There was a fairly good ai- tendance. Rev. Taylor Dale, who has been holidaying In Uncle Sam's do- mains, was given a warm welcome. As is well-known, Rotarian Kelly s engaged in Kingston in the manu- faciure of picture frames. Th2 in- dustry, as he pointed cut, is one of the 'baby industries' in the city, It {was started about eighteen months ago, and some predicted that it was an industry that would not last very long, but in spité of the hard times, the concern is making things go. It is employing from seventeen to twenty hands, and in the first nine 4 | months the firm turned out and ship- |ped between 42,000 and 45, {ture frames, The speaker pointed out that in 1919, one firm in Chicago had turn- ed out and disposed of 350,000 | frames, and 'the speaker fell that there was a great opportunity for the | manufacture of frames in Kingston, {and to secure a poriion of this busi- | ness. While business at the start was | not very brisk, the firm had been able {to live up to its agreement, and the prospects for the future were very |encouraging. At the present time, the tirm had about 8,000 frames on order. The company had about 5,000 feet of floor space on starting and had added about 3,000 feet the first year, and there was every chance of | the firm making still greater expan- sion, The firm had a pay roll of 1$1,000 to $1,200 per month, { Rotartan Kelly had several {samples of the picture frames turned lout by this Kingston industry and they were ehown to the members of {the club, Some weeks as many as 12,000 frames were turned out, crated |and shipped. Since starting in business, between 70,000 and 80,000 frames had been {shipped out of the city, and some- {thing the local concern had good rea- {son to be proud of, was the fact that not one complaint had been received {about the frames turned out. The |firm had recently added machinery {to its plant for the turning out of { mouldings, At the present {ime, the (firm had an order from Toronto for 1,000 feet of moulding. Following the address which was listened to with keen intetest, Ro- tarian Nash moved a vote of thanks {to the speaker, and it was carrfed {amidst loud applause. Rotarian 000 pic- [Kelly for his business activity, and also for the able service he was ren- dering Kingston dn the city council. Rotarian Nash said that he felt that | Kingston was now making an ad- tvance along industrial lines, and he | believed that all that was required to bring success, was that every citizen do his "bit" to help things along. Secretary Roy Ward referred to {the picnic held last week at Collins | Lake, when the members of the club were the guests of Mayor Corbett. | Everyone was agreed that the outing Iwas a most enjoyable one, | Rotarian Bert Abernethy reported {on the big excursion the club is hold- | ing next Monday night to Clayton. A | big time is in store for all who at- |tend. The Rotarians and their friends |are expected to turn out in goodly numbers. Citizens are invited to take in the trip, and have a good time. There will be an orchestra on board, and an hour will be spent at Clayton, and there wilt be music thers for all desiring to dance, The members of the club were de- lighted to hear from Rotarian Rex Snellgrove, who has been, as he ex- plained in his letter, "in the wilds of. Quebec." tarian J. J. Stewart, and created much amusement, Rex also sent the club © a very interesting souvenir, which speaks volumes for his stay in Quebec. During the club's snappy roll call, Thomas F'. Downing, Wheeling, West Virginia, and W. J, Regan, Toronto, were introduced as guests, and given |a warm welcome by the chairman and members of the club. ?

Lloyd George has lost faith in God he has allowed the miserable and ex- ecrable enemies of the British em- pire to blur and cloud his vision, and hence to lose sight of that stimulat- ing, never forgettable victory, which made the Huns say to our Genera!, We. are completely exhausted. Fur- ther is not such a fearful dread of another war, an insult to the mem- ory of our gallant heroes who made the supreme sacrifice in the con- sciousness that our righteous Goa would never allow such a sacrifice 1) be trampled under the feet of our enemies. The same God is with us to-day, to defend our glorious empire. The aftermath of the great storm has not completely subsided, and a little patience, and firmness and the days of calm and prosperous peace are upon us. Surely our history, Mr. Ed- itor, is too glorious to allow the haters of the empire to cloud our vision of the mighty past, and to try and make us believe we cannot hold this great heritage for the unborn generations which are yet to come. We went into that * war with un stained hands; we came out of that war with unstained hands. It pro- duced a race of the greatest heroic- men and women that th®-world ever saw; we have not surrendered to the enemy, we have no intention of surrendering. Surely despotism will never, dare to venture to raise her sceptre and turn us back to the dark ages again. The spirit of the gallant men who made the supreme sacri- fice speaks to us loudly to-day to still be mgn and carry on, for the protection of the widows and or- phans and the . cripples of this aw- ful war.

With respect to the recent state- ment of M. Considine Mrs. E. H. West, 15 Stephen street, made 'he following reply on Friday: "I take exception to the whole statement. Mr, Considine in his remarks has made it appear that my daughter is a loose woman, hanging around street cor- ners looking for men, whereas she is the viotim of circums'ances which {were premeditated. "I resent most strongly allegations against the morality of any member of our family and I am prepared to compare records with his by any pub- lic investigator when his intrigue may be fully shown for public judg- ment. Indeed, I have a charge of seduction, with claim for damages, pending in cour! and whem the case is heard his record and letters he has written will be broadcasted. Until that time I am not going to wash dirty linen before the public but I can state with absolute assurance that any allegations and aspersions he makes are untrue. 'His claim for public sympathy is unjustifiable, as I can prove that he returned to the city, not to put wrongs right, but because he believed that his wife had committed suicide and I would allow him to marry my daughter." - Canon Jones is to preach at the Tamworth parish. He was rector of Tamworth for nearly twenty years, and his former parishioners will be glad to see and hear him again.
