The obMgations that the Canada owe to the on the high seas, were brought ou: in a most striking manner at the memorial service held in the Allen theatre on Sunday evening. The big theatre was well-filled with inter- ted citizens, the speakers incluad- ing Leman A. Guild, president of the Kingston branch, Navy League of Canada, Principal R. Bruce Taylor, Queen's University, and Rev. C. Adams, Torongo, chaplain of the Navy League for Ontario. The musical service included patriotic and) other appropriate sel- ections as follows: "Rule Britannia,' Charles Harvey; "Nearer My God To Thee," Master "Bud" Fair; "The Flowers of the Forest," Pipe Major Logan; and "The Last Post," by a bugler of the naval bridage. R. F. Harvey accompanfed the soloists on the piano. The chairman of the evening, Le- man A. Gulld, in a brief introductory address, ontlined the objest of the gathering, and stated that the mem- orial service was a tribute to the memory of those sailors of the Royal Navy and merchant marine who had paid the supreme sacrifice during the Great War. Our debt to these men riight never be paid in full, but their deeds of valor would ever remain fresh in our minds. It was to the men of the merchant marine, how- ever, that perhaps the greatest debt was owed, and it was the object of the navy league to assist in relief? work towards this end. The speaker concluded by stating that this entire weok in Kingston would be devi\ed by the navy league workers towards the raising of funds to carry on with the good work. On Thursday evening next a concert would be held in Memorial hall, un- der the auspices of the navy league, with the entertainment being pro- vided by the Ginl Guides and cadets of the Collegiate Institute and the faval brigade, Principal R. Bruce Taylor an- pounced that he would give an ac- count of the battle of Zeebrugge, that notable naval raid of the re- cent war, of which the 22nd and 23rd of April was the fifth anniver- sary. This spectacular engagement, while not the most important of tha War, was one at had a great deal DR.T. H.

' After describing the situation of the submarine depot, which was on- ly seventy-two miles from Dover; the speaker outlined the difficulties that surrounded the attempt to block the entrance to the harbor. Surprise, wind, tide, luck, ang several other things entered into the chances for After several previous at- teapts the raid was finally under- taken, there being 163 vessels of var- fous sizes engaged in the scheme. Dr. Taylor gave a vivid and elo- quent deseription of the actual at- tack, the gruelling fire that swept the decks of the Vindiotive, the al- most impossible attempt of the land- ing party, the success of one of the British submarines in blowing up a section of the bridge, and the action of the three oconcrete-loaded hlock ships who finally succeeded in their objective of closing up the channel. There were 1,782 officers and men involved én the attack, and of these, 215 were killed or missing and over 400 were wounded. It was a great victory of siragegy, and one at Which the whole empire thrilled. As the 23rd April was the of the 2nd battle of Ypres, of which Canadians were so proud, so was this victory ome of which the waole empire might point to with pride. Before introducing Rev. Mr. Adams, the chairman told the gath- ering something of the objects of the local comps of the naval brigade and sketched the success of the organiza- tion since it had been re-organized by R. J. Rodgers, formerly of this city. There were now sixty wel. trained boys In the brigade, and they were most efficient in thelr maay duties, having progressed fa a mos Satisfactory manmer under the dir- ection of Instructor Newton. A stirring appeal for support of the navy league, fts objects aime, and the great work that yat re- | mained to be dome, was given by Mr. Adams In an address that tohiched on every phase of relief work now be- HE Ir | °F 3 H : niin Recetsary materials of war could hate Leen carried across the seas.

Only one small bun- galow was saved, due to the efforts of Dr. Worth Haig, who with his mo- ther is occupying his"summer home on the south side of the island. When Dr. Haig noticed the fire it had | gained too much headway to be fought by him alone, and though | several boat-loads of people from the town motored over when the fire was noticed in town and the alarm given, they were much too late to be of any assistance. The hotel was a large frame structure, owned by Mrs. John Gibson, Gananoque, and Try it and be convinced. Order from MANOOD'S DRUG STORE ION ANNVERSARY DAY Rev. A. 8.
