Mr. Dixon, re- | | marked that is was the largest gath- | | ering ever held in the edifice. The service was unique, in that it was | | conducted by the Rotarians and the | { Rotary Anns. Rotarian Rev. J. S. Laflair preached the sermon, while; Rotarians and Rotary Anns formed | the choir. The service was of a most inspiring nature. | Rev. 8. Dixon offered the opening | | prayer and the community singing was led by Rotarian Jack Elder. Mrs. A. N. Lyster presided at the piano | for the entire service. The Rota- | rian choir rendered two: beautiful] anthems, "Jerusalem" and "Stand| Up, Stand Up for Jesus," and musical part of the programme in- cluded a duet by Mrs. R. G. An- drews and Rotarian H. T. Single- ton, a vocal solo by Mrs. Frederick | Taylor and a violin solo by G. Rad-| cliffe, Rev. Mr. Laflair selected for his text Matthew, 13th" chapter, 55th | verse: "Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? | And his brethren James and Joses | and Simon and Judas? Also Acts, | | 10th chapter, 28th verse: "And he said unto them, ye know how that {it | is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come | unto one of another nation; but God | hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean." | Rev. Mr. Laflair spoke of the im-| portant place taken in the world by the A commonplace people. They were doing the best things in lite. | They were classed among the home- makers and were the people who were fighting the bravest hattics. It | was often the case that a man born | with greatness would fall down af-| terwards. { The speaker's message was a most inspiring one and held the intense | interest of the large gathering] threughout. A. N. Lyster, president of the Kingston Rotary club, read the serip- | tural lessons. The [congregation extended a | hearty vote of thanks to the mem- | bers of the Rotary Club for conduct- | ing the service, which was attended | by quite a large number of King-| | ston folk, apart from the Rotary | | Club.

This one for instance, seems to he Addressed by some fair dame, Who, having cast her eyes on me, Now burns with love's bright flame, But when the contents I explore, All set to find a thrill, The billet-doux I'm looking for Turns out to be a bill. Some envelopes quite regal are As If sent by a king, And then disclose a circular For bricks or some such thing. But what completes my total wreck And leaves me all forlorn Is, when I think I've got a check, To read: "You're overdrawn." Good Idea.

Brought By Donald Ross, Kingston Boy, Ag«d Fifteen, A correspondent in the Peterboro | Examiner from Stirling writes: Don- ald Ross, the high school student who has brought fame to that insti- tution as well as to the village, by receiving third prize for an essay on forest conservation in the competi- tion conducted by a Toronto news- paper with the sanction of the gov- ernment, wears his new honors with becoming modesty. Donald is only fifteen years old, but in the third form at the high school. When the | competition was announced he pre- | pared his essay without taking his | teacher, schoolmaster or friends into | bis confidence, so that his success | created general surprise. If he had failed to secure a place among the winners no one here would have known that he had entered the lists. Donald is the son of General A. E. Ross, Kingston, and since the death of his mother about eight years ago, has been residing here with his grandmother, Mrs. 8S. H. Parker, and his maternal aunt, Miss Emma Par- ker. He has been a student in the high school for the past three years, showing special aptness in literature and history. To write an essay that won a prize among over 300 submit- ted required in addition to ability to express himself correctly in the Dissolve Your Corns This is the best and surest way to get rid of cbrns and callouses.

So I | speak of the piano as being the peo- ple's orchestra." There is more truth in Rubin- stein's words than is perhaps appar- ent on the surface. Because the piano is a musical entity and is com- plete without the aid of any other musical instrument, {is the reason why many thousands of boys and girls In Canada are playing and learning to play this king of instru- ments. Violins, flutes, clarinets, cormets, and various other instruments one might name, are all delightful to listen to, and all have important mis- sions to fill in the realm of music, but none of these instruments with- out some accompaniment is capable of giving listeners the maximum of pleasure. The piano needs no assistance from other instruments. It can oe- cupy the platform alone. It offers one the main features of the pipe organ, with its capacities of harmony as well as melody; and because the tone is created by percussion, it em- braces such effects as those of the harp. the guitar, the drum, as well as the major elements of the orhces- tra. \ : That is why Chopin, the great com- poser, gave his all to the plano.
