Incidents of Days Long Ago That Old King- ston Boys Will Likely Recall | | Williamsburg, Indiana, April 4.-- | (To the Editor): Have just received | a few copies of your daily paper and {was more than pleased to read the | "Do You Remember' column or old [times recalled. And while being | blessed with a good memory, gray hairs and several years on that, I | had no idea "A.E.D." had lived so | long ago and "Old Mull" is old en- ough to be guardian for Methuse- lah"s goat. They surely stirred up old times in my mind and made me think of the good times I have had in Kingston. Many times I have fairly raved to think I had to leave the dear old town and wander to a strange place. I have often wondered why Kingston has always been a training. school for other places. But one thing that cannot be done is to drive the old town from our hearts. Do you remember when Paddy Cooley used to chase us out of the old Regiopolis College? Do you remember when we got up on the roof of Martin's Opera House and got in the window to see Harvey's Minstrels, Wilson Day and Harry Lindley? Do you remember Bushell didn't drive wagon? when Bob a vegetable Do you remember the old Queen's | College gate on Deacon and Arch | street, and the old gang, Tommy Kennedy, Frank Bissonette, Billy GC'Donnell, Dode Mooney and many others used to hold forth until Clocker Nesbit arrived? Do you remember when Wissy Oberndoffer ran for Alderman? Do you remember Billy Pipe's pop wagon with the triple deck and how it rattled, also what became of a good many bottles. Do you remember when Charlie Butlin drove old Jérry for the Ex- press Co.? Do you remember the grocery man on Princess street who used to make his clerks whistle when they went down cellar after prunes? Do you remember how far it was from town to Miley Burn's? Do you remember dear old Gary's barber shop and the old bunch who used .to warm their shins by the fire when Billy Shanahan's was closed? Do your remember away back when George Hentig, Tom Grima- | son and Billy Jackson wore knick- ers? . Do you remember the sergeant's mess at the barracks and the smok- ing concerts? Do you remember when Peter Devlin looked like John L. Sullivan? Do you remember whem Tommy Robinson couldn't talk? Yes, I remember these and many, many other things and. if the old town could talk and start telling tales out of school at the Old Boys' Re-union a good many would be looking up the time table for the first train out. May it be the great- est re-unfon ever held and I'll be there if the walking is good. Sincerely yours, . --J. W. G. $1,100,000 WILL SOON HAVE BEEN EXPENDED On New General Hospital Buildings--Hospital Will Be Worth $2,000,000. "When the work on the new clinic building,which is in the course of construction, at the Kingston General hospital, is completed, the sum of $1,100,000 will have been spent in connection with the rebuild- ing scheme at the hospital," was the statement of Mr. R. E. Kent, chair- man of the building committee, to a representative of the Whig on Tuesday. Mr. Kent stated that the work on the new building was rushed along as quickly as possible so that it will be ready for the opening of the col- lege term about Oct. 1st. The building committee, said Mr. Kent, is having plans and specifica- tions drawn up for the remodelling of the Watkins building, as well as the Nickle and Doran buildings. The committee has to consider that the funds for building purposes are nearly at an end and for that rea- son, the rebuilding of the Watkins, Nickle and Doran buildings will have to be done according to the amount of money which the commit- tee has for the purpose. It is stated that when the build- ing scheme is completed the citizens of Kifigston can proudly say that they have a General Hospital of value, in the neighborhood of $2,- 000,000. The board of management of the hospital certainly has a big propo- sition on its hands, and the best results can only be obtained by the utmost economy and good manage- ment being exercised. When the Watkins wing is over hauled more semi-private rooms will be arranged in that part of the | hospital where the public wards are at the present time. There are many people entering the hospital } who cannot afford a private, and at the same time do not want to go to the public wards. It is expected that the present staff of nurses, which is the largest in the history of fhe hospital, will be sufficient for the new clinic building. The graduation class 'will leave the hospital the latter part of May and a new class will en- ter the school of training. The building committee of the hospital is to be complimented upon the splendid manner in which it has carried ofit the duties entrusted to it. KINGSTON PRESBYTERY. Agrees to Transfer of Picton Pastor to Hamilton. On Monday the Kingston pres- bytery's committee on students met and examined the four candidates to be licensed and ordained. In the afternoon they reported favorably the transfer of the Rev. C. L. Cow- an of Picton to St. Andrew's chureh, BIRTHDAY PARTY OF THE G.W.V.A. The Big Event Is to Be Held in Club Rooms on Wednes- day Evening. The executive committee of the Kingston branch G.W.V.A. met in their club rooms last evening when plans were definitely completed for the big birthday party that is to be held tomorrow (Wednesday) at 8 p.m. An interesting programme has been arranged and those attending are pro- mised a wonderful evening. The, fere- works. will start at 7.30 in front of the club house on Princess street, The front of the building is being decorat- ed with flags and bunting in honor of the occasion. The inside of the large assembly hall has been tastefully de- corated and on the platform a realis- tic replica of a section of the front line trenches; including the O. C. dug- out has been erected. Tin helmets, sand bags, empty bully beef cans, and other souvenirs have been used to re- call the scene with which all veterans were familiar about eight years ago. Dr. W. D. Sharpe, M.L.A,, the Do- minion president of the GW.V.A,, is expected to arrive in the city on Wed- nesday noon and he will be the princi- pal speaker at the evening celebration, Other prominent local veterans and citizens have signified their intention of being present. Before adjourning the members took occasion to say good-bye to their retiring president, Comrade D. N. Mc- Donell who is leaving the city to take an important Canadian government position in the U.S.A. Comrade Mc- Donell goes to his new position with all the good wishes of the members of the local branch and as a small token of their good-will he was presented with a club-bag. Immediately after adjourning their business meeting the executive mem- bers formed themselves into a work. ing party to put the finishing touches on the decorations and other arrange- ments for Wednesday's party. * All ex-servicé men are heartily in- vited to be with us on Wednesday ev- ening.
