O., General Staff Ofmoer, Inspected Corps. 14.<Col. F¥. O. Hodgins, D.S.0. Gen- eral Staff Officer, Militia Headquar- ters, M.D. 3, inspected the Sea Cadet Corps at Brown's Bay on Friday, August lst. Col. Hodgins, who was accom- panied by Col. J. N. S. Leslie, Mrs. Leslie and Mrs. Charles Constantine, crossed to Brown's Bay in a motor launch which was brought to anchor off the bay and the party came ashore in a ten-oared cutter manned by the Sea Cadets. The inspecting officer was received with a general salute, and the cadets marched past to the martial strains of Pipe Major Fraser's pipes, after which he minutely inspected the Cadets, the tents and equipment. In addressing the boys he expressed himself as greatly pleased with their smart appearance, and with the pre- cision with which they did their drill. He was specially pleased with the tidiness of the camp, and the very perfect manner in 'which the blankets and equipment were arrangdd. A prize was given for the best tent, and Col. Hodgins had great difficulty in plcking the winners. Petty Officer Jack Day's tent, however, got the prize. 'The inspection over, a bathing par- ade was held and an exhibition of swimming and diving, life saving and resuscitating an apparently drowned cadet, given. Col. Leslie, in addressing the boys, complimented them upon their turn- out and upon their good behaviour during the camp. He called for cheers for Mr. Brophy, of Brophy's Point, who made ho charge for the use of the grounds, for Instructor Arthur Raven, who had given up his holidays to voluntarily take charge of the camp, for Mr, Whalley, of the Bank of Montreal, who had made a most efficient transport officer, for Mr. and Mrs. Pearn, who did all the cooking, also voluntarily, for Major Larter, of the R.C.A.S8.C,, and Capt. Trudeau, who had visited the camp and donated prizes for competition, for Pipe Major Fraser for his kind- ness in coming over to play for the boys, and for Capt. Macdonald, Camp Commandant. After being served with tea, the inspecting officer and his party were rowed out by the boys to their launch and returned to the city. In the evening, through the kind- ness of Lt.-Col. H. E. Pense, D.S.O., the boys weére entertained at Bro- rhy's Point, to which ghey marched with the pipes and drums. The even- ing of a perfect day was brought to a close by a camp bonfire. The camp broke up on Saturday afternoon, when Capt. Macdonald towed the hoats containing the boys and equipment to their headquarters at Barriefield huts. The camp was altogether a success and there was no sickness nor ac- i | cidents during the week. LETTERS To The Editor Under Different Conditions. Inverary, Aug. 4.--(To the Edi- tor): The front page article in Fri- day's Whig, seeking to prove that drunkenness in Ontario is worse than in government controlled Quebec, is misleading and is just such propa- ganda as the enemies of the O.T.A. would just now broadcast. .The facts are that in Ontario any suspicions. of drunkenness are ap- prehended, while in Quebec the ar- rests are only made if there iz vio- lence or disorder. The government is in for money and is very lenient with its own customers. Dr. E. J. Hart and others have brought this out beyond dispute in the press re- cently. I have just come from a rv in Quebec province, and in a meeting of citizens comprizing three counties where government comtrol in part had taken the place of the Scott Act, it was declared, without exception, that the present condition was 'a thousandfold worse than under even the imperfectly enforced Scott Act. Quebec is trying to provoke the hostility of the prohibitionists in the * MAKING PREPARATIONS FOR KINGSTON FAR| Enquiries for Space Are Pour Ing in From Far and Near. A regular post office, such as the Canadian National Exhibition oper« ates, wil be a convenient feature of this year's fair in Kingston. Two interesting moving picture displays are promised in the deecis- fons of the Post Office Department and the Tuberculosis Association to exhibit their activities. Mr. Bushell is also trying to have the Ontario De- partment of Agriculture put om a similar exhibit, which should be of great interest to the farmers. Many congratulatory letters are coming in regarding the excellent make-up of the fair prize list. Pos- sibly the most pleasing was fhat re- ceived by Mr. Bushell from the Hon. H. C. Cody, ex-Minister of Education, who commented very highly on the verse and prose pages contained in the booklet. He considered them to be of a very high standard. The Kingston Industrial Exhibi- tion directors held a meeting on Fri- day afternoon when plans were con- tinued for the big event next month, Enquiring for space are pouring in from far and near, by mail, telephone find telegraph, A Buffalo establish- ment is the latest applicant. Quebec Students. Beating even last year's banquet in more ways than one, the teachers from Quebec province attending the summer school held their annual banquet on Thursday, July 31st, at the British-American hotel. J. G. Samson, a representative for Quebec, acted as chairman and dealt with the many benefits Quebec students have derived from the work taken up at Queen's summer school. During the evening several musi- cal items and recitations were ren- dered, which were greatly appreciat- ed. Among those who spoke were Miss M. K. Simpson and Messrs. Na- son, Snyder, Harvey, Ogden, McLean. Mr. Lapierre ended his toast to the "Habitant province" with his cele- brated masterpiece "Alouette."
