Folger made | to the Public Utilities Commission, at a meeting held on Monday after- noon, and as a result of this repaqre, it is the intention of the Commis- sipn to carry on a systematic nam- paign, in order to have all the leaky taps attended to, in an endeavor to check the great waste in water. An inspector will réport in cases whery leaky taps are discovered, and the users will be asked to co-operata with the members of the commis- sion, in their endeavor to put a stop to the great waste of water. Tenders were received by the com- mission for new street lighting equipment. The tenders will be tabu. | lated by Manager Folger and presen:- ed to the commiission. In a report to the commission on proposed changes to be made in tha street lighting system, Manager Folger pointed out that the next | year should show a net saving of $1,500. The manager has.in view a complete revision of the present | street lighting system. In the last | twenty years the arc lamp, or general | street lighting has undergone a | great change. | On motion of Mayor Angrove, the commission approved of the changes as recommended by the manager, and- decided to proceed with the work. > On behalf of the Kingston' Indus- trial Exhibition, .R. J. Bushell asked that the commission grant free pow- er and light required at the fair this year, but no action was taken. | Corporation of In his letter, Mr. Bushell pointed out that the fair was a great asse: to the city. This year it was the in-| tention to increase the prize list and | the directors would be up against it) to make ends meet. | Tho free light asked for by, Mr. | Bushell covers the general illumia- | ation of the fair grounds, as the | exhibitors are called upon to pay for | their own lighting. > v Commissioner H. W. Newman was | inclined to favor the request, but did | not pass a motion when he found it | was the general opinion of the com- missioners that it would not be right | to make the city pay for the light required. Commissioner H. C. Nickle sald that similar reports might be re- ceived from other deserving bodies and it would be starting a precedent that could not be kept up.' Mayor -Angrove stated that if any action was taken to help out the fair association he would rather give the association a rebate on their ac- count for last year's fair. R. J. Bushell also wrote asking for a water service for Kingston township school. The matter was re- ferred to the manager for a report on the cost of said service. An application was received from J. C. K. Munsie, collector in thea utilities office, for an increase in salary. Mr. Munsie is at present re- ceiving a salary of $100 per month. Commissions Newman moved, seconded by Commissioner Harris, that Mr. Munsie be given an increase of $25 per month, and the motion carried on the casting vote of the chairman, Under the present regulations a consumer of gas or electric light is regarded as being in arrears if the { New York "Sun." a--KDEKA (328) Pittsburgh, Pa. 2.30 p.m.--Baseball scores, inning by inning? 5 p.m.--Baseball scores. 5.30 p.m.--Dinner ccncert, by the Pittsburgh Athletic Asgociation or- crestra, Gregorio Scalzo, conductor. 6 p.m.--Baseball scores. - Concert continued. 6.30 p.m.--"Robin Hood."

"Authors Who Have Riled Me" was the subject of a breezy address by Prof. John MacNaughton at the annual meeting of the Toronto Branch of the Canadian Authors' Association at the Arts and Letters Club on Saturday night. In his us- ual outspoken, even Shavian, man- ner, Prof. MacNaughton discussed tendencies and men, He confessed his dislike for socialism and the OTA. and passed on to Bernard Shaw, H. G. Wells, Sir James Barrie and oth- ers. Shaw was often 'an' irritation, but he had done yeoman service in curing the English people of Phari- | seelsm. Wells had riled him because of his dabbling in science, his assum. || ption of knowledge in every airec- tion and his ventures into prophecy yet Wells' early books were delight. ful. Barrie's "Peter Pan" was ad- mirable, but he had shown too much sentimentality in later years. The seif-complacency of the Ameri- cans riled the speaker, but he was grateful for the unmasking of it by Sinclair Lewis, one of their own > guilty are alarmed and furnl| Human guilt cannot go beyond the | pale af the slightest thunder. crime of those who solicit war, » fr "Phone 220," Gibson's Drugs. \ "Tar Moth Bags," Gibson's. give satisfaction.
