The Mongolans had seen to it that Ma Wag representéd in 'Mah Jong" so.we had to take up the cudgels'on be- half of Pa. The game is very simple. Invite in all the people who have bor- rowed umbrellas from you In the past ten years; ask thenr to name an animal that has six legs, no ears and which refuses to-pay his income tax. The dark gentlemen sitting on the chair next to the piano, which the bailiffs are, com- ing for to-morrow, then offers to blindfold himself and tell the. fference be- tween a plate of Chop Suey and Flamingoes pin feathers on t.° At this stage the oil stock ghlesman gets gushy, says those who follow hifi will have barrels of fun and avers he's no other than the guy who took the "Téan" out of gasoline. "Oh Boy," the refreshments come in. Just when yé hostess commences apportioning the hot rolls of honor, Pah steps in and says: "Boys and Gals the honour of having you here ig all me own. The empty plates and, heads is convincing evidence you have left mo, stones of flour unturned. fion't know who won the game, but I am sure you have all benefitted by the spirits of goodwill, which is the big idea half-back of the game." The rules and regulations of Pah Jug are just coming from the printers. A copy of same goes with every Duniep Tire we sell. Likewise the man or wo- man who purchases gas or oil from "Old Reliables," 277 Bagot Street (or calls on the A. & D. boys to repair that dover or tube, instantly or sooner), ig en- {tle to, and certainly will get a set of these instructions.

Cullen's CASH AND CARRY 'as the centre, | der of the big KINGSTON BOY SPEAKS! AT ROTARY LONCHEON F. K. Upton's Address on the Tuxis Programme and Boys' Parliament The members of the Kingston Ro- tary Club, at their weekly luncheon in the British-American hotel on Fri- day noon listened to a splendid ad- dress delivered by F. K. Upton, a Kingston boy, who represents this | ity in the older boys' provincial par- lament. He spoke on the Tuxis pro- gramme and the boys' parliament. The president, Leman A. Guild, pre- sided, and the attendance of mem- bers was good. In opening his address the speak- er remarked that much had been said and read about the great men of the past, but that his address would have.to do with thé great men of the future--the boys of to-day, the men of the future who would make Cana- dian 'mistory. He spoke of a move- ment put on foot about twenty years ago, to fornf an organization for the benefit of the boys. At this time there were many. organizations doing good work, but only along one line. One society probably looked after athletics, another debating and so on, These organizations were but one-sided. * It was hoped to have an organization which would cover the intellectual, physical, religious and sbcial side of the boy---that would be four-fold. This was brought about by the formation of the Tuxis movement. . This organization stood for a training for service, with Christ as the only perfect man. These organizations were formed in churches, Sunday schools, Y.M.C.A., or any place where the boys would congregate, the boys ranging in age from 10 to 21. The speaker then went on to tell how the organization was governed, the various work undertaken and the badges given to the boys for good work. As a result of these organiza- tions boys were well developed in every way. Junior city and county councils were among the products of the organization and reference was made to several of the councils form- ed and the work being carried on. In the Toronto ceuncils, the boys got a good training in political pro- cedure as boys of all nationalities and creeds were gathered together into friendship and unity. Anothe product of the organization was the formation of an older boys' parlia- ment, at which various problems were discussed, particularly those which have to do with the boys. At this stage the speaker took oc- casion to pay a warm tribute to the Rotarians in Toronto at a , recent meeting of the boys' parliament in that city. The Rotarians gave the boys a great reception and helped them in every way possible. Continuing, the speaker pointed out that the programme of the Tuxis movement .was of a national charao- ter and with. boys of the teen age this formed a unique assemblage. The organization"was turning out boys who would develop into the type of men Canada wanted--men would make good citizens. Canada would have no need to worry over these boys. < In closing his address, which held the intense imterest of all present, the young speaker stated that sev- eral of the members of the Rotary club had been helping along the movement and he appealad for unit- ed support from the club. He also expressed his thanks for the oppor- tunity of addressing the club. "The invitation came to me as a surprise," he stated, "but it came es-a good surprise.' ¥ Rotarian C. C. Nash moved the vote of thanks to the speaker and |in doing so stated that he was very proud of the young speaker, especi- ally in view of the fact that he was a member of bis Sunday school claps. Rotarian Nash stated that the movement was a good one and he thought the club should gét behind it and establish an older boys' city council in the city. The president praised the move- ment and referred the matter to the incoming board of directors. Rotarian Wightman reported that ten members of the club will go to Syracuse, N.Y. tq. attend the dis- trict convention ofAvei 25th, | The members were given a remin- yention to be held in Toronto, June 16th to 20th, WE SERVE GOOD MEALS VICTORIA CAFE Siug Lee and Gan i THE 304 King Stree. and see' perfectly. . {After a careful examination of the eyes--of course ! . ¥ An cement was also made of the London rt Six to appear at the Grand Opéra House on Monday, April 218t, It is of interest to note that the ing chorus for this pro- duction, "Hail Glorious Canada," hds been dedicated to the Rotary clubs. On motion of Rotarian Harry Breathwaite and Howard Kelly, the sum of $10 was voted to help defray the expenses of the hoys' choir of Victoria school going to Toronto the latter part of this month, to take part in the big musical festival there. The president read a few extracts from a breezy letter received from Rotarjan "Al" Davis, now in New Tweddell's top costs $15.50 to $28. THE TOWN WATCHMAN | Are you taking your spring tonic of sulphur yet? po ---- { The persistence of those three for- | eigners, who could not speak Eng- lish when they arrived in Kingston lately and yet have secured work, should make - some other people around here ashamed of themselves. v The plumber usually comée out on top, but one of thejfraternity saw his finish when he tried conclusions with a Kingston woman in court. The result of automobile actions heard in court here this week show- | ed that people should think twice before, suing for damages. The blame in the majority of collisions is of the fifty-fitty variety. Every encouragement should be given "to singing by school children. About thirty or more years ago there was good singing in the schools here and big choruses appeared in the old opera house. Now there is a revival, A singing people will become a happy people. ) ' You can laugh at the Ladies' Aid if you wish, but where would the churches and the hospitals be to-day Without that..time-honored' body of women?

Objection has. beén taken to the location of a Chinese laundry at the corner of Brock and Division street.

Yes, we may need it even in" Kingston. Who knows but to- morrow the mayor or some of the | alderman may wake up to find i laundry sign on the house next door to him. There are good reasons why | the mayor should be annoyed if he found a Chinese laundry or glue fac- tory open next door to his residence. First, 'not being familiaF with their tongue, he would find it somewhat difficult to hang over the back fence and gossip as good neighbors should; second, experience teaches that sur- rounding property depreciates in value; third, neighboring property cannot command as desirable tenants as previously." "But the argument that I would espegially emphasize," continued the citizen, "is that the site of the pro- posed Chinese settlement is within a stone's throw of Louise public school, which is attended by over one hundred children, some of them quite young. This fact makes the aforesaid petition of much wider in- terest and importance. Some chil- dren are known to have a terror of Chinamen. #"The public school board has suf- ficient influence, if it cares to exer- Phere about their schools. Let the elected representative or repre- tatives of the petitioners and others interested act with the school authorities and there should be no trouble in disposing of this particu- lar case forthwith. In conclusion I would ask if it iz unreasonable that families 'who have been Canadians and Kingstonians for a generation or generations should request that their interests should be protected in a matter such as this." ; -------- LETTERS To The Editer Kingston, April 11.--(To the Bditor): I take much pleasure in ; the semi-annual meeting of. the King- Easter Millinery Hats that are differemt.

An A Vanishing Species ? { (News Heading, --8ays 'Type 'Will Vanish Soon) Alas, little flapper, must we bid you adieu? Is it possible that in the inexorable process of evolution you must vanish, with the caveman and dinosaur, into the shades of history? No, no, we can not be so pessimistic as to beMeve it! Can you conceive a spring unheralded by delightful feminime creatutes, adorn- ed, for the confounding of mankind, Flapper in fair raiment and fairer millinery ¥% creations? What would summer be without the summer girl in her glory, captivating all hearts as she wields a mean racket, equals her brother -at high diving and drives Her own car? Nor would winter be the same without those fur-coated, gay toqued figures amid the throngs upon the, rinks, or hiking manfully abroad upon snowshoes and skiis, There is no season of the year to which the flapper does not add pi- quancy, grace and the needed charm. As long as there is any spring, there will be flappers to 'welcome its com- ing, add brilliancy to its loviiness, and syncopate its rythm. Criticise the flapper, you may if you wish, (she'll never care) adore her you must, but do without her,--never. Going to Western Canada? Every year at this season hun- dreds of families consider paying a visit to one of the three Prairie Provinces with the idea of perman- ently locating there if, they find suitable locations. 8 The very best train to take from Toronto is the NATIONAL, the steel equipped Canadian !
