FATHER AND SON BANQUET Unique Event Held by Kings-| ton Rotary Club on Friday | Night. "What does Rotary mean to the | boy? It means a great deal. Thou- | | sands of boys are growing up calling | | the word, Rotary, blessed," said J. | | Alexander Hdmison, boy mayor { Tqronto, | Queen's | Father and Son banquet, held under ot | at present attending | University, addressing a} the auspices of the Kingston Rotary | Club, at the British-American hotel | | on Friday night. | enjoyed--in fact The event was well attended, and the programme provided was much it wags voted by | all the members of the club, as one | {| of the finest ever conducted by the | | Rotarians. At roll call all the guests | | were introduced, and prior to the | | address of the evening, there was a short programme. President Leman A. Guild presided J. Alexander Edmison was intro- { duced by the president of the ciub, | | Rotarians and was given a most enthusiastic | welcome. In opening his address, | which held the keen interest of the | and their guests, the speaker stated that It gave him great | | pleasure to be present and speak on | | what Rotary had accomplished for | boys, as he was well acquainted with | what had been accomplished by Ro-| tary along the line of boys' work. | Rotary, no doubt, would mean al vacant chair at tie dinner table at one meal each week, in the home, but the service of the Rotarians was doing much for the coming genera- tions. The work of Rotary among the boys was far-reaching. The speaker told about the good work being accomplished by the boys' work council of the Toronta Rotary club, with which he was very familiar, and also the Toronto Boys' Munieipal council. Among other things accomplished, the boys' coun-| cil had published a newspaper for the boys, and much had been ac- complished. Special attention had been given to athletics, and as the speaker remarked, '""we cannot all be a Batstone or a Conacher," an effort was being made to get all the boys on the side lines interested in sport. Oratory was another matter taken up. Contests were held in oratory, with the result that many boys were now able to express themselves in a most intelligent manner at gather- ings. One of the chief works of the council was to give attention to the underprivileged boys. Summer camps and outings had been under- taken and with success, The speak- er had received many letters of con- gratulation on the success of the work of the council among the boys. "We should not forget the under- privileged boys," added the speaker. "These are the boys who have never had a chance, and we can do much for them." Mayor Edmison touched on a very important matter when he spoke of the relationship between father and son. The name "Dad" should be ever dear to the boy, and the speaker appealed to father and son to be pals always. Referring particularly to the work of Rotary, the speaker said: "We cannot all be Rotarians, but we can all practice the principles. We can play the game fair and square." During the course of his remarks, the speaker told many interesting stories relating to boys' work, It was a most inspiring address, and dealing as it did with the work among the boys, which is the chief plank in Rotary, it was warmly appreciated by the members. ' Rotarian Dr. "Cliff" Nash moved the wciie of thanks to the speaker, stating that the address was one of the finest the club had ever listened to, and his remarks were backed up by the club with loud applause. The forepart of the evening was given over to much jollity. The boys were provided with *"'bazoos' afid horns, and they made things lively. Rotarian Fred Colwill, of Sher- brooke, gave a number of imperson- ations in fine style; Gordon Strachan tavored with an excellent violin solo, and "Jack" LaFlair, son of Rotarian Rev, J. S. LaFlair, rendered a solo in good voice. The entire programme was one of high merit, Rotary songs were given throughout the evening, with Rotarian Harold Singleton pre- siding at the piano and Rotarian "Jack" Elder as leader. ; Rotarian Rex Snelgrove was pre- sent, and was given a most enthusi- astic welcome by the members, and his presence brought forth a special address of welcome from the presi- dent, and the singing of "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow," by the entire company. The president extended a warm welcome to all -the guests. Altogether, it: was an evening of much enjoyment. -------------------- The First White Male Child Born.

First Political Ambitions Fired By Lloyd George: A. W. HAYCOCK A. W. Haycock, the young Cana- dian who has been elected as Labor representative for the British House of Commons from Salford West, was bred to politics. This is not the first time Mr. Hay- cock has aspired to political honors, he having led a forlorn hope against the Conservative strong hole of Win- chester in the election of 1922, After leaving Kingston in 1904, he went to England and accepted a position with a large chocolate com- pany, making his home latterly in Manchester. His first political ambitions were fired by Lloyd George and the radical movement. In explaining the reasons which later induced him to throw in || his fortunes with the Labor party, he said: "I joined the Labor move- ment because I thought its policy right. In Britain economic conditions are quite different from' those In Canada. The struggle for existence {s immeasurably harder here and the under-dog has a dismally small chance for making good." Previous to the war, Mr. Haycock was organizing secretary of the for- eign policy committee of the House of Commons. He also served for some years as organizing secretary and lecturer for the Norman Angell league. Immediately on the outbreak of war in 1914, however, he joined an ambulance corps and saw service in France. But when the military service act was passed, he returned to England to oppose conscription, which he re- garded as an infringment of consti- tutional liberties. Mr. Haycock is sald to be a keen debater and to have an unsually good platform presence. AS FULL OF HUMOR AS QUEEN'S OF TOUCHDOWNS What a Writer Has to Say About the Principal of Queen's. -- "The Spotlight" in the Star has the following: The primary intent of Principal Taylor's incursion to Hamilton and Canadian Clubs within this week that Queen's is somewhat of a university and not almost or altogether a foot- ball team. He has talked of edu- cation and progress in the manner of a man who is so sure about both that he doesn't have to confess to be so all-fired serious about either. 80 doing, he convinced a reporter that he is not without humor-- which is about as much as many experienced people think it prudent to say about a Presbyterian minis- ter. 'Truth is that he is as full of humor as Queen's is of toucheowns, To look at, he's Lord Grey wearing glasses, and much keyed up. To listen to--well, he's asrgood on the radio as he is on the platform--a great deal to cay when a new kind Toronto "The Ha: Store" Christmas Hats BUY TO-NIGHT 'We Hat Every and our three Hat de- partments are at- tractive now for the buyers of useful gifts No better gift for "him" than a Velour Hat or a real good Cap.

Newman & Shaw THE ALWAYS BUSY STORE \ ec a of stageless stage fright is affecting some men of whom it was' thought that their nerves were proof against distraction. Principal Taylor is one of the boys at Queen's. On the sassy side of fifty when he went there fivé years ago last winter, he delighted the students by telling them that he felt as if he had only lately left college, He's a regular feller and so say all his girls, His father taught him to sail boat almost as soon as he ducked him intq the Shorter Catechism. He taught his girls likewise, and they go off for long trips on their sailboat, with Sister Mary usually as skipper in chief. Down the St. Lawrence, up the Richelieu to Lake Chaniplain, for {nstance, is the €ont of journey these Taylorean adventuresses would take when they were otherwise fancy-free, and inspired thereto by gravity, divinity and wind-wisdom in parental guise. y For years and years it was cus. tomary to speak of Queen's almost as if the beginning and ¢nding were Principal: Grant--a noble principal indeed. But the tradition of get. ting a head that's passed through Glasgow University was maintained | when Taylor came, and Glasgow be- ing Glasgow yet, Queen's is still Queen's in mining, theology and football, D. 8.
