Campbell, has returned to | Mr. and Mrs. William McCammon, tary station at Kingston, they roach- ed the sheiered harbor at the en- trance of the Bay of Quinte, the French spelling of the name of a large Indian village, Kante, situated further up the bay. The settlement Was named for Deputy Surveyor John Collin, who surveyed the land along the shore in 1784, and is to- day one of the popular summer re- soris in the neighborhood of King- ston being only six miles from the city, easily reached by train or motor. vo With Capt. Grass were the Her- chimer's, the Purdy's, the Everett'a, the Fairfield's and other loyalists, RS. DARIUS SMITH MRS, Of Collin's Bay, who is in her 102nd year. ' whose descendants are to be found farming land given to their fore- fathers by King George IL Capt. Grass, who was given a large grant of land in the neighborhood of the City Fark and'Macdonald Fark, was als' given the morthern part of the point across from the settlement at Collin's Bay, the soathern half be- ing granted to the Herchimer fam- ily. Of the houses built by the U. E. Loyalists] only one remains today, "The White House," the first two- story house built in Ontario. - The home of Mr. azivd Mrs. Thomas Fair- fleld and Miss Alice Fairfield, who ngoresents the fifth generation of. tac family born within the walls of this fine old house about four miles west of the bay. , I'assing through. the village, the visitor is struck by the number ot fine stone buildings, "The jodge," where many Kingston people enjuy the ool breezes from Lake Ontario, the old hotel and the beautiful vid homes of Anthony M. Rankin, M.P. P., who represents Frontenac in the provincial legislature, and his bro ther, Dr. W. #. Rankin, Brooklyn, N.Y, who with his family, spends the summer in tlie home buiit by his uncle, Anthony MeGuin, who some ing from Sacket's Harbor in 1783 drew land from the crown at Brew- or's M's but later settied at Col- !m's Bay, wiere he built the great stone mills, the dam and raceway, te be seen today, and the carding mil, now shaded by dr-oping wil lows, on the bank of tae stream which has its source in Col- lin's Lake. For many mils the settlers carried grain to be ground at the mids and the fam ies were clothed In the "Pull cloth" made at tg carding mill. A distillery was built on the shore, 80 all things needful wore provided for the self- which conwuped village. "Lm Lolge" was bu'lf by Anthony Mafein in 1535 and wae his home until his E d'ed when he bui't the house w Dr. Ramkin's home.

One of the draw backs to' life in Collin's Bay has been the two dan- gerous raiiway crossings at which many lives have been losf. Now a new road has beem built across the end of the bay which will be com- pleted this autumn, and there is no doubt the trafic between Kingston and the village will' be greatly in creased. : Little use is mow made of 'hg splendid. natural harbor that the bay affords, a house boat owned by some . pleasure seekers from tha United Stales is the only sign of life on the smooths surface of the water, but at ome time the Collin's Bay Rafting and Forwarding company, of which Capt. William Lessiie was presideni, did a large business here and the ways now in use, are a te- minder of those busy days. Collin's Bay sets an example in the vexed question of church union and seems to have solved it to everyone's for the little Union church, ministered to by Rev. G. A. Bisco, Cataraqui, ts filled with wor- shippers, who join 'in the hearty singing and benefit by the thoughi- ful sermons of the clever young minister.

Conflicting figures ane again found in the ruling sidereal operations. Al- though there may be some decided breaking away from old obstructions and congestions, with the opportun- ity for change, removal or travel, yet there may be a tendency toward too precipitate movements or decisions, which may defeat more JPpropotious openings. The inclination to haste or impulsive acts shouldbe subdued if the benefic influences are to pre- vail. Avoid law and quarrels, * Those whose bifthday it is have the prospect of a year of renewed op- porturmity, after long obstruction and Stagnation, but this sheuld be em- braced with deliberation, not impetu- ously. Speculation, litigation and disputes should be avoided. A child born on'this day may be impulsve un- Jess it ds cayefully trained.
