GOODWIN'S PORTRAIT | IF UNVEILED AT QUEEN'S | Presentation-on Behalf of The To Lieut.-Gol. Pens, Major | A very happy event took place, after Graduates by R. O. Sweezy, Montpeal. | The autumn convocation was held at | Queen's University on Friday evening, | { and a pleasing feature of the event wag | the presentation to the university of al | beautiful portrait of Dr. W. L. Good- | win, for thirty-six years dean of the | science faculty, by R. O. Sweezy, B. | Sc., Montreal, on behalf of the gradu- |ates. In addition to the conferring of | degrees and scholarships awarded to | graduates and students, the honorary | degree of doctor of laws was conferred | upon 'His Honor Judge Thomas Dic- kie Cumberland # arts graduate of | Queen's in 1875, Dr, R. Bruce Taylor, principal and vice-chancellor, presided, and though { suffering from an affection of the knee that necessitated his walking with the aid of crutches, he displayed his wont- | ed cheerfulness and keeness. In addi- j tion to the student body there was a { large gathering of citizens and friends i of the university. Rev. W. E. Kidd, of. ficiated as chaplain, : | Mr. Sweezy was introduced by the | vice-chancellor, and after describing | his admission to Queen's twenty years | | ago he told of his happy associations! ferred in most complimentary terms | | with Dr. Goodwin, a professor beloved | by all who knew him. Dr. Goodwin | | was present. | In accepting the portrait on behalf | of the trustees and staff of the univer- | sity, Dr. Taylor paid a high tribute to [ Dr. Goodwin's fine qualities as a man and a scholar. He called upon Dr, Goodwin who said it was the greatest occasion of his life. He said he did not know that his students felt such a strong attachment to him, and he thought that the reason why Queen's was able to compete on even terms with the other strong universities of Canada, was the strong relationship that existed between the professors and students, The cordial spirit set free all of the powers of each profes- sor. He told of the beginning of stu- dent self-government when the late Principal Grant put the management into the hands of the Alma Mater Society. He thanked Mr. Sweezy, and in conclusion said, "I wish to sénd out to my former students my heartfelt thanks for this touching expression of their feelings toward me." Judge Cumberland was introduced by Dr. John Watson, vice-principal. Judge Cumberland was born in Duf- | ferin county, Ont., and after graduat- | ing from Queen's studied law. He prac tised in Winnipeg previous to his ap- pointment as county court judge at Brandon, Mart. After receiving his de- gree he gave a mest interesting ac- count of Queen's in his student days. He entered the Arts course in 1871 jand the total number of students was twenty-seven. Dr, Snodgrass was the principal and there were five Arts professors. The medical college was on Princess street and had no connec- tion with Queen's. The judge said he had vivid recollections of the events of that time. He failed then%o vizualize the Queen's of today and he esteemed it a great honor to have the degree of doctor of laws conferred upon him. Dean Connell, Dean Clarke and Ds. McNeill presented the students for their degres and scholarships. Dr. Taylor introduced Hon. W. F. Nickle, K.C,, M.P.P., chairman of the board of trustees, as the attorney-gen- eral of Ontario, and Mr. Nickle in re. sponding told some of the interesting incidents of his student days at Queen's. ? CONVICTS PICKED "UP BY SOME RELATIVES Who Drove to Glenburnie-- Gave a False Impression at Toronto. ---- There now appears to be no doubt that the four convicts who made their escape from the Portsmouth peliiten- tiary on the morning of September 10th were taken away from Glenburs nie in an automobile furnished by'rela- tives of the prisoners, There have been rumors for some time that one of the relatives of the prisoners came from a western city for the purpose of getting the four coi victs who were hiding. It would ap- pear that the man in question knew exactly where he was going as the Glenburnie residents did not see any | strange automobiles in that locality af- ter the sensational escape. There is a story in circulation to the effect that the man who drove the au- tomobile, after arriving in Toronto on his way to Kingston, tried to cause the impression that he had left for a trip in the western part of the province, while in reality he came direct to Glenburnie and picked up the four convicts. i { IN MARINE OIROLES Sub A strong south: westerly gale has forced the local coal fleet to take shel- ter either in the local harbor or at Am- erican ports. Several of the larger ves- sels have also been windbound owing to the storm. The steamer Canadian arrived from PRESENTATIONS MADE BY P.W.0.. OFFICERS L. F. Goodwin and Lieut. W. Hawley. dinner, in their mess 'at the armouries on Friday evening, when the officers of the Princess of Wales' Qwn Regi- ment marked of the occasion of the marriage of two 'of their number and the retirement from the command of Lient.-Col. H. E. Pense, D.S.0., M.C, Among the guests were Major-General Sir A. C. Macdonell, K.C.B, C.M.G., D.S.0., commandant of the Royal Mi- litary College*and the following ex- commanding officers: Brig.-General W. S. Hughes, D.S.0., Lieut-Col. H. J. Dawson, C.M.G., D.S:©., Lieut-Col. J. S. Skinner and Lieut.-Col. W. Y, Mills. During the course of the dinner an excellent programme was played by the regimental band, under Band- master W. J. Christmas. Major H. D. Wightman, M.C., mess president, called upon Col. Pense to niake the presentation to Major LF. Goodwin. The time-honored gift of the officers to those of their number who join the ranks of the married is a clock. In a brief speech Col. Pease re- to the work of Major Goodwin for the past thirteen years, of heir apprecia- tion of his contribution to the life of the mess, and, on behalf of his broth- er officers, asked the second-in-com- mand to accept the gift, with the best wishes for long life and happiness for Mrs. Goodwin and himself, Major Goodwin replied .in a very fitting speech. The second presentation of this nature was made to Lieut- W. Hawley. Lieut-Col. E. B. Sparks, the present commanding officer, extended the best wishes of the officers to Mrs. Hawley and their brother officer, Mr. Hawley expressed his appreciation. Col. Dawsog, the commanyer of the 7th Canadian Infantr command of the local infantry battal- ion, after seventeen years of service with it and the C. E. F. He traced the service of the retiring C. O., since the days of his enthusidstic work as a pri- vate, non-commissioned officer and subaltern officer, to his appointment to the 21st Battalion, C, E. F., his ulti- mate command of that unit, and the task of re-organizing the Kingston re- giment upon his return from overseas in 1919. He declared as decidedly fit. ting that the enthusiastic and consist- | ent work of such an officer should be suitably marked and asked Colonel Pense to accept from his brother offi cers a handsome silver tray, suitably engraved, as a token of their apprecia- tion of his work for the regiment and of their regard, The retiring commanding officer very warmly thanked those with whom he had been associated in military work, whom he had considered as friends, and without whose co-Opera- tionshis efforts in Kingston's historic old regiment would have availed little, To Colonel Dawson's words of praise of his work in the local militia and the C. E. F. he replied that it had given him a great deal of pleasure to assist in building up the records of the units with which he had been assuciated at the front and at home, and expressed his assurance "of the future success of the local battalion, under Col. Sparks. Sir Archibald Macdonell was called upon and, in the course of his remarks, congratulated Col. Pense on his re- cord with the Canadian Corps, of which he had first hand knowledge, and paid a tribute to him for carrying out the re-organization of the P.W.0O. R. upon his return, when an officer who had been so long in strenuous work at the front might have preferr- ed to be relieved of all military res- ponsibility. : General Hughes, the first command- ing officer of the 21st, and whose many years of work in the old 14th Regiment are so well known, paid a glowing tribute to the efforts of the recipient of the gift of the officers, and in a very interesting manner, touched upon events in connection with the ym ---- "The Hat Store" New Hats BUY TO-NIGHT When you were cheering for Queen's to-day, were you wave ing a proper Hat?

General Hughes spoke very highly of the pre- sent C, O., Col. Sparks, whom he had recruited when a boy. Colonel Skinner, the "daddy" of the ex-commanding officers, who guided the destinies of the regiment from 1898 to 1903, was given a most hearty reception. During the war he served with the British army, but has return- ed to Kingston to reside, a fact over which he is wery happy. His brief speech, chiefly in regard to the events of the nineties in the local unit, Was | very interesting. He voiced his deep appreciation of having been so warm- ly received by the present officers.
