A most inspiring address | on he | work among boy scouts, i before the members ot! the tary Club, at their nocn-day It at Lhe British-American hotel Prof. John I Stiles of tha pO; on Friday, by sistant commissione: scouts, and a member of the 1): Rotary Club. It is-tie intention of {tte Rotary Club to g». back of the | ut work in Kingstcn, and the ud- sss of Rotarian Stiles was brimful of timely sugyestions for the carrying | ion of the work. Th: speaker punc- tuated his remarks with some very interesting stories to emphasize his | | points and he pat them over in most | fc suvine!ng ranner. R5~ 1 boy tawa The address was | [listened to with keen interest by all 'he members, 't was ne of the fin- [ «t addresses given before tie club (8 {this year. Tre presidens, Leman A. | | Guild, presided, and thers was a-good | irendance of members, Rotarian Stiles, in opening his ad- {a ss, revise the hirtory of the boy ¢ont movemart, which was started 1907 and has had a wonderlui B wth. There are at the prescn< ime two million scouts, the erganiz- ation being worid-wide. At the pre- sent time, a Canadian scout was cor- responding with a scout in Australia The apeaker expressed the hope that great interest would be taken in the scout work in Kingston, There were at the present time two troops of scouts in this city, but there should at least be four. Speaking of the work accomp'ighed in Kingston, ith the scouts, he stated that he wished to thank the citizens who had helped wl { university, who had given much of their time in instructing the scouts. * Rotarfan Stiles todk for the title of "iii address, "Scouting," and ask- ed the question, "What is Scouting?" and when he had concluded his ad- | dress, the members of the club were given a great insight Into the work, and everyone felt satisfied that it was indeed great work, and something worth while. No person could listen %0 Rotarian Stiles' address without being touch- ed with the appeal for work of this kind among the boys. Like at their play, the boys were put in gangs in the scouts, or what was referred to as a patrol, and everything possible was carried on to develop the lads. In the old days boys around the | home were given ohores to do, bu! | today there were very few chores for a boy to do at home, and for this | reason, something had to be provided | |to take the place of the chores. The | boy scout movement stood for de- veloping the boy along the line of health, character building and public |service. All education must have health as its first object, f For Public Service. The speaker made a strong point when he went into the question of fitting 'he boys for public service. "Too many of us are content to be box cars when it is engines that we need," he said. '"We need some per- son to do the pulling, and if democ- | racy is to be a success, we must train |° the boys to take part in public or- | ganizations, The boys in Kingston | should be taught that this city is a good place to live in. I hate to gc into a town and have some young fel- low make the remark, 'this place is dead." You can make sure that the fellow who makes such a remark is dead." Going into the work of the boy scouts, Rotarian Stiles: stated that the chief motto was "Be Prepared," and he told how the scouts were given instruction in first aid, and ali kinds of work, "I think there is a good deal in. this movement to help Canada," said the speaker. "And if this is not so, I have made a bad guess." Many stories of the good work car- ried out by scouts who had been The Best a Christmas Gift : For Those Who Need Them Would Be a Nice Pair of Glasses For Grandmother or Grandfathér-- | A pair of Kryptoks--the new double vision Glasses for reading and distant use, all in one solid piece of glass.

Scouts the world | over had, by acting promptly, saved | many lives, The speaker spoke of the attitude of mind, and stated that it was the duty of the boy scouts to do. a good turn to some person every day and | not say anything about it. Above all | things he was tatight to be loyal, His | training was such as to call upon | { him to whistie under difficulties. | Andther very important matter | touched on by Rotarian Stiles was | that boy scouts could do more for the new Canadians than any other organ- ization, as the boys mixed together in such a manner as to form friend- ships, played the same games and be- oame interested in their scout work. The speaker referred to the various the question of religion had been raised, but the scout movement pre- pared the boys for religion, and handed them over to the church for this part of their training. Some people had regarded the organiza- tion as a mili'ary orgamization, but SI0h Was wok Ch It was not anti-military, however, but was not military because others were engag- ed In this line of work.

Kingston has a good milk supply, ac ording to Dr. James Miller, path. logist of Queen's university, who jade a report to the Board of Health at its meeting on Friday afternoon. [Dy Miller made bacteriological ex- amination of 107 samples of milk submitted to him by Inspector G. W. 11. The results werg very favor- ible, and an improvenfent over last year was noted. Kingston's' milk !supply compares favorabiy with those {of Edinburgh, Scotland, Manchester, [i 'ngland, and other large cities which Dr. Williamson, medical health lofficer, remarked that the report of the Queen's pathologist was very satisfactory indeed. It was pleasing to know that Kingston had such a good milk supply, . 'Inspector Bell reported as to milk tests made. During November he bad examined 247 cows. He found a big improvement all round In re- gard to the milk conditions, Mrs. D. A. Volume asked if it was right for & storekeeper to keep a pail of milk on the counter without a cov- ering. InSpector Bell said it" would be better to have some covering on it, although ilk needed ventilation. It should be kept in a clean and sani- tary plage, as required by the regula- tions. In hot weather it had to be kept in an ice box, Mrs. Volume said she had seen milk standing uncovered on a store counter, and did not think it was right, Dr. Marcelis, chairman, said the dealer should be given warning, and if he repeated the offence his license should he taken away. Sanitary Inspector Sleeth reported | that during the past two weeks he ! had pritarded fourteen houses for scarlet fever. He had received a complaint that an old man living on | Division street had recently had a | stroke, and that his family were not | properly caring for him. The mem- bers decided that 'this was a case of neglect, and that the Board of Health had nothing to do with it. A petition was received from resi- dents of Rideau street asking that a {license be not granted to M. Rosen who kept a second-hand and junk place down there. The petitioners claimed it was a nuisance. No license had been issued by the board. This matter will be further dealt with, Mrs. Volume asked what re dress there was for residents | whose neighbors kept cows | and 'calves which were a nuis- ance, There was a by-law against the keeping of "pigs, but calves were regarded as great 8 nuisance when close to one's place of residence. A | *esolution was passed asking the city clerk to consult with the city solici- - tor and secure a report as to what {regulation the board could pass with respect to cows, calves and horses.
