When a gas stove exploded in her home on Sunday morning, Mrs. James McGarvin, who resides at the corner of Quebec and Cherry streets, suffered severe burns about her eyes and face. She was given prompt medical attention and doing as well as can be expectéd. It is be- lieved that one of the children turn- ed on one of the taps while playing around the house. The case is an extremely sad one, as Mrs. McGar- vin's mother is an. invalid and she has been caring for her, while two of the children are ill with scarlet fever, TRAINING OF THE MIND. Brightens Life's Way, Dr. Morgan Tells Summer Students, Convocation Hall was well-filled for the students last Sunday night sing-song when Rev. Prof. Morgan, of the Theological College staff, was the speaker. In an inspiring ad- dress, Dr. Morgan brought to mind the wisdom of holding fast to our "human birthright." Life's bless- ings were added to by the friend- ships of home and acquaintances, love reaching its highest form in service for others. Life's way was brightened, too, by the training of the mind, that opened the door to the world of art and literature, and to the wonders of the universe. Yet so often men cast these "aside for "a mess of pottage," forfeiting their precious inheritance through sloth, avarice or sensuality. The closing hymn was "God Be With You Till We Meet Again." J. L. Challinor conducted the sing- song. Lorne Matthews presided at the piano. Rotary Club Activities. The members of the Kingston Ro- tary Club have been invited to hold a "basket picnic" on Tuesday eve- ning, Aug. 12th, at the 'summer home of Rotarian Dr. H. E. Day and Mrs. Day, at Sandy Bottoth and the members are looking forward to a big time. Summer school students who took part in the musical pro- gramme- at the club's luncheon on Friday last have been invited to join the picnic. Each Rotarian will provide baskets for himself and his guests, SEVERAL FUNERALS. The funeral of the late Saraphin Compeau took place from his late residence, 57 John street, Monday morning, to -St. Mary's cathedral where the sglemn requiém was sung by the Rev. Fr. Hyland. Interment was made in Philomen cemetery, Howe Island. The arrangements were in charge of the James Reid firm, The funeral of the late Kenneth Ralph Dixon took place on Sun- da morning from the residence of his { tather at Inverary in charge of the James Reid firm. It was largely at- tended. Rev. Mr. England conducted the last services. The pall-bearers were: C. Beckwith, H. Gibson, C. Garrett, J. Snyder and C. Lake. in- terment was at Sand Hill cemetery. The funeral of the late Augustus Conway took place from his late re- sidence on Rideau street on Satur- day morning to Cataraqui cemetery in charge of John Cornelius. The pall-bearers were his six sons: Charles, Frederick, George, William, Percy and Armbs. A widow and one daughter, Mrs. Andrew Long, Water- town, N.Y., also survive. The ser- vices were conducted by Rev. W, BE. Kidd. A HORSE INJURED When a Street Cor Strikes a Wagon and Drags It. A horse driving one of D. J. Zur- brigg's delivery vans was badly in- jured when the wagon was struck by a street car at the corner of Prin- cess and Division streets Saturday afternoon, The wagon was going south along Division street and the car coming down Princess. The rig was hit in the back part ahd it and the horse dragged for 157 feet. The two hind wheels on the wagon were smashed. The driver escaped injury by jumping out. ---------------------- At St, Andrew's Church. Rev. Dr. Geo. E. Ross, B.A, of Montreal, who filled St. Andrew's pulpit the last two Sundays during Rev. Mr. Stephen's vacation. deliv- ered an eloquent address Sunday morning on the text from Job 11,7: '""Canst thou by searching find out God?" He claimed that God was seen in nature and in humanity but most assuredly in the life of Christ, whosé remarkable personality af- forded men an insight into the na- ture of the Creator. A very pleasing vocal solo was given by S. W. Carriere, of Toronto, a student at the Queen's Summer school. C. A, Milner presided at the organ. 5 "Albert Gordon, aged five, a native of Peterboro and eldest som of Joseph and Bthel Gordon, 42 Beres- ford avenue, died in Highland Park General Hospital late Saturday al- ternoon, after being struck down by an automobile driven by , Forrest Dix, 89 Beresford avenue, who 8 held at police headquarters charged with negligent homicide. © The dey ceased lad's parents came here from Kingston." NORTHERY ONTARIO HAD BIG MOUNTAINS Ranges Higher Than Rockies Account for Minerals, Says Prof. M. B. Baker. ------ . Northern Ontario is rich in min- erals and one explanation of that was offered before the Geology Sec- tion of the Scientific Association, meeting in Toronto, by Prof. M. B. Baker, Queen's University. That was-to be found in "geological holo- causts" which led to the formation of metallic deposits and the build- ing of two huge ranges of moun- tains, probably larger than the Rochies. "During the formation of"each of these continents of mountain ranges, vast masses of igneous rocks were introduced into the lower parts of mountains to be exposéd later when they were worn down to their bases," said the geologist. "At the close of the pre-Cambrian age there was another period when igneous rocks of enormous volume were injected into and poured over vulcanism, and in the 'country' the rocks already formed. "Included in the rocks of this later rocks adjacent to them, are to be found the copper, nickel, silver and cobalt of the Keweenaw, Sudbury and Cobalt arfeas," he The gold ores of Porcupine, Kirk- land, and other regions in Ontario and Quebec were amassed during the second great igneous upheaval, when the molten rocks were squirted up inside the mountains. CANADIAN PACIFIC--THE HARVESTERS' SHORTEST ROUTE TO THE WEST. Due to the fact that the Canadian Pacific is the shortest route to the West, the greater majority of har- vesters last year travelled via Cana- dian Pacific. The company will main- tain the usual high standard of colonist car equPpment ladies, children and their while Junch counter cars in which hot. meals, refreshments, etc., may be obtained at most reasonable rates will also be attached to all trains. Because the Canadian Pacific is the shortest route to Western Can- ada and due to the efforts of the Company to have the harvesters spread over as much territory as pos- gible in a minimum space of time, it is expected from the numerous in- gpiries received, that a number of extra trains will' be necessary this year to transport the harvesters to the West, Canadian Pacific agents throughout Ontario have been fully instructed in the various mati per- furnish * Int 1 ding the departure of trains, = On August 22nd, at 12.01 a.m. (midnight, August 21st) the first special train will leave Toronto, fol- lowed by one at 10.00 am. and others as required. . It is confidently expected that harvesters will again travel Cana- dian Pacific, the majority of har- vesters from Ontario last year hav- ing done so as the harvesters are thus able to be among the first from Ontario in the harvest fields. Barnabus Wood, of Odessa, Is Eighty-eight Years Old The Whig extends congratulations to Barnabus Wood, of Odessa, who on Monday, August 11th, celebrated his §8th birthday anniversary. Mr. Wood is still very active and able to carry on his farm work with surpris- ing energy for one of his years. Since 1853, a period of seventy- one years, Mr. Wood has been a read- er of the Kingston Whig. One day, when he was seventeen years of age, he was in Sydenham on horseback, when a Whig representative took his subscription and he still watches for the arrival of the paper every day. Balloons.

By ELEANOR GUNN The much overworked term, "simpli- city," which creeps into every fashion writer's report, is being qualified. One now reads about elaborated simplicity, which seems to indicate more accu- rately the mode at present. Many a frock cannot come under this classifi- cation of simplicity, although it may be simple in silhouette. As a matter of fact, there appears to bean alarming tendency of gowns becoming ifitricate, The reentry of lace is largely respon- sible for elaboration in effect, while, of course, the curious and unexpected turns and twists to which tucks are subjected, the use of cordings and of braiding, to say nothing of applique, 'make a sum total decidedly on the side of elaboration.
