W. Sirett, who found it impossible to attend the meetings. The secretary was in- structed to write expressing the So- clety's appreciation of the services rendered. It was also announced that owing to his leaving the city to become | connected with O'Berli College, Prof. Lothrop had resigned from his position as secretary. This removal of Dr. Lothrop is a real loss to the society and to the city at' large. He has always attended the meetings 'regularly and has been keenly inter- ested in all phases of the work. The socfety's best wishes go with him to his new home. Mr. Black gave a very interesting report covering the months of March and April, as he had been un- fortunately ill and in hospital for some weeks. General regret was expressed of all the members at the announce- ment of the death of Miss Ida Ronan, who had been one of the Roman Ca- tholic members of the society and who had rendered valuable ser- vices in seeing after the needy chil- dren of her church. LETTERS To The Editor No Such By-law. Kingston, May 7.--(To the Edi- "Speaking of the city council it is realized the significance of their ac- apparatus, prohibiting out a special arrangement being made with the municipality or in- stitutions affected. This means, for example, that until some special ar- rangement is entered into the local fire department can not go to a call even to Mowat Sanatorium or Rock- wood Hospital, to say nothing of the penitentiary. When one considers the great amount of money that these institutions leave in the city this seems to be a pretty drastic action quite apart from the appar- ent unneighborly and ungenerous spirit, which, of course, it may' be taken for granted, the council never intended. No city can build a wall around itself and expect to prosper.' In reply I beg to say that no such a by-law has been passed by the council, but why should the Standard call this drastic action, and yet in its {issue of March 13th, 1924, ap- pears the following heading: 'Again Wants Pen Moved. Warden Pons- ford Repeats His Recommendation to the Department of Justice. Says Community Has Been Affected With Penitentiary Insanity.' 'May I ask, why it did not call this drastic action on the part of Warden Ponsford in recommending this large-spending institution be taken away, which would also cause & large staff to leave the city ? Way accuse the council of being drastic and not the man paid by the publie, who recommends the taking away of such an institution ? --W. A. TWIGG, 192 Barrie St, City. STAG PARTY AT MOWAT. A Presentation Made to Mr. Eaton Who Is Leaving. A very enjoyable time was spent by the patients of the Mowat Hos- pital Wednesday evening when a stag party was given by the patients. The men played cards, and refresh- ments were served and cigars and cigarettes passed around. A pleas- ant surprise was the presentation of a pair of cuff links to Mr. HEaton, who is leaving the hospital. The presentation was made by Mr. Swan- little speech in which he expressed the regret of all concerned that Mr. Baton was leav- ing. Mr. Baton replied in a few words, thanking the patients very much for the little gift, which show- ed the high esteem in which they held him.

From an attendance of 3,208 in the gymnasium classes during the winter of 1983-24, to a total attendance of 5,- 350 during the past winter, was the re- cord of the local Y.M.C.A. physical department. This was one of the many interesting facts brought out in the reports submitted to the board of dir- ectors, at a meeting Tuesday night. W. Musselman, chairman, of the physical committee, had an excellent report, reviewing the work as a whole and intimating some of the plans for the summer months. The City Soft Ball League, which is being sponsor- ed by the physical department, is creat- ing widespread interest among young men and boys, and the present indica- tions are that the young ladies of the city will have a league of their own. The finance committee's report was submitted by Mr. "Sid" Smith, and showed a growth in revenue from the building as well as a substantial in- crease in fees from members and in subscriptions over the same month last year.

A meeting of the executive of the Central Ontario Baseball League was in Cobourg on Wednesday afternoon for the purpose of clearing up the sch- edule and umpire questions for final ratification by the league and take up other matters which required attention. Those present at the meeting included the following: President C. M. Ander- son, F. G. Bales and C. P. Davis of Oshawa, H. T. McFadeen, P. A. John- ston, Peterboro, Newton Thompson and Vern Weir, Belleville and W. L. Kennedy and A. C. Givens of King- ston.

Game of Saturday, May 30, Belle- ville at Kingston, changed to Friday, May 29. Game of Wednesday, July 1, Osh- {awa at Peterboro, changed to morning game. The list of umpires previously an- nounced was cancelled and George Sullivan of Kingston was the unani- mous first choice of all the teams in the league. All clubs demanded that he be given a share of their games, even to Oshawa where the jump is a long one. Oshawa, Peterboro and Belleville were | heartily in favor of Sullivan. This is a | splendid tribute to the worth of the local man, whose fairness and judg- ment has made him a respected um- pire in the Central Ontario League. summer membership campaign and The following four umpires were cho- the special summer rates were approv-| gen to act in all games of the C.O.B.L. ed by the board. . ) | wherever it is possible for them to act: Mr. Harry Wilder brought in a fine George Sullivan of Kingston, Ken Col- report 'on the work of the property ling of Belleville, Alex.

Mr. F. R. Anglin's report on the Sunday afternoon meetings for men showed that strong speakers had been secured for a series of addresses but that the attendance had not been quite what might have been expected.
