THE DAILY BR Ki anis Karnival a | "Bigger and better than ever" is not the exclusive slogan of the King- ston Fair. The many citizens who have thronged the armorigs the last thrée days comment on the improve- ment which the Kiwanlg Karnival shows over last year's successful ef- fort. It would be difficult to improve on the displays arranged by the merchants. Bach booth has some- thing to repay one's interest and many beautiful color schemes and lighting effécts have been worked out. There are altogether twenty stores represented. The concessions, fifteen in number, also show great- ter variety and originality than in 1924. All of these depend on science and skill and there are no "wheels." The arrangement of the booths is much better. The centre of the hall has kept more open and consider- ably more promenade space has been left for the visitors. The programmes provided for each afternoon and evening have en- tirely pleased. There was much in- terest taken in the baby show on Tueaday afternoon. The winners were: 1st, a silver cup donated by Kiwanian Harry Wilder, won by Harold Davidson; 2nd prize, a silver spoon, donated by Kiwanian Dr. Austih, won by Hilda Havery; 3rd prize, won by Betty May Davidson. On Tuesday evening the always delighting Kingston Symphony Or- chestra, composed of twenty-five musicians under the direction of Prof. Telgmann, provided the pro- gramme, assisted by Mrs. L. M. Collins and Miss Katharine Hart in very pleasing vocal nambers. The selections given by the orchestra 4n- cluded the overture to Lea, the Royal Cadet (7Telgmann), Sweet Melody Walts, Cleopatra Gavotte, Students' March and Metropolitan Maren. Wednesday afternoon's program- me was a pretty dancing exhibition by the junior pupils of the Florence numbers were: My first dance, Mar- garet Newlands; Little Miss Dainty, Genevieve Kans; ' Holland Baby, Eleanore Crossfield; Bouncing Betty, Phyllis Mary Gummer; Kid- dies' Polka, Edith Kling; Allegretto, Margaret Evans, Eleanore Moore, Margaret Casey, Edith Askby and George Newlands; toe ballet, Evelyn Jesse, Eunagitfde Dunn, Ellén Brinch and Beulah Hawkey; Golden Red, Betty d'Bstérre, Kathleen Howle, Grace Southall; Skirt Dance, Ther- esa Pilley and Margaret Bailey; Bunny Dance, Phyllis Mary Gummer, Jennie Miller and Blegnor Crebs- field; Littles Ballet, Nora Reés; a shamrock, Margaret Newlands. The accompanist at the piano was Miss Mamie Tiernéy. Wednesday night's programme, which was énjoyed by the largest growd yét in attendance, was given by twenty-three of the R. M. C. cadets. It comprised interesting gymnastic exercises with horse and parallel bar work and sword swing- iag. The parallel bar work was givén by Q.M.S. Instructor Preston, the horse work by Q.M.S. Instrue- tor Huggett and the sword work by C. 8. M. Harper. Capt. F. M. Harvey, V.C., was in charge. The dancing in the gun-room at the south-end, which has been pret- tily decorated with flags, was well- patronized on both evenings. Christ- mas' Orchestrd provided excellent musiéal programmes. ---- The Concessions. The wild anima: show at the north end, with its huge hand-paint- ¢d jungle sign, is a new featuré that is arousing desérving interest. The collection, which is still being add- od to, includes a monkey, a flying fox, a lynx, alligators, a badger, a bear, baby guinea pigs and baby black rabbits, large mud turtles and #0 on. The art galléry and the museum at the north-east corner are also wéll patronized. The museum, a new feature, has its walls covered with curios: from many lands; from a mummy's hSid that was fifteén centuries old when the Christian era began, to Eskimo art from the far north. Special mention should be made of Mrs. Constantine's loan of Eskimo ivories, and of A. H. Fair's loan of Chinese silks. A Borneo can- very generous in the lean of pictures.

The trophies offered at the different games, dart throwing contests, shoot- ing galleries, cross-word puzzles, etc., include beautiful bronzed ¥lor- entine statuary and electric lamps with parchment shades. Thursday's e. The afternoon feature is to be a competition for the best dressed doll. Two prizes have been provided by Kiwanians, a doll carriage by Stuart Crawford and a doll dressing set by Alan Meiklejohn. The drawing card Thursday even- ing will be an exhibitioon at eight o'clock by the senior pupils of the Florence Hudon dancing school. This is to include classical Greek and interpretative numbers, as pre- sented by the famous Russian School of New York, ho.ding out thé prom- ise of a charming entertainment. A silver cup is being donated by the Kiwanis Club for the boxing outs to be put on Saturday night by the city newsboys. Hemlock Farm Exhibit. Clean and bright in pretty green and white effects, the exhibit of the Hemlock Park Stock Farm on the south-east wing does not fail to at- tract the attention of every visitor to the Armouries. The booth, design- ed and dressed by the employees, tells in a very effective way why milk from this famous dairy is to be preferred as a food for both children and adults. Not only are the cows tuberculin tested, protecting its con- sumers against the dread "white plague," but the product is under the personal supervision of Dr. James Miller, F.R.8.C., Professor -of Pathology at Queen's University, guarding against other impurities so difficult to avoid ordinarily. An al- bum and other photographs show how carefully the firm guards the cleanliness or the herd and the milk. The stables are noted for their tidiness, one stable employing the full time of eight men to keep it and its herd clean. All the cows are hand-milked, and the milkers, in white suits, wash their hands in a sterile solution in individual basins after each cow, the plant being equipped with fts own plumbing system: Milking machines are not used. The management believes that every possible precaution has been taken to make this article of feod whele- tome and safe. amd. makes a point of inviting visitors to the stables any day during milking hours, between four and six o'clock. The héalth of the attendants of the herds is also an important item that is carefully supervised by the firm. It is very compliméntary to the efforts put forward by the dairy to presérve the purity of its product, that its cus- tomers include such institutions as the Kingston General Hospital, the Mowat Sanatorium, the Royal Mili- tary College and the National Baker- fes. . The dairy is prepared to take on a few more customers, guaranteeing, as always, that each bottle of milk delivered In its well-known white enamelled trucks will come from its own carefully supervised herds. De- livery orders may be booked at the booth. The farm telephone is 2676. ------ The Monarch Battery Company. It is a truly "live" exhibit that Ki- wanian I, Cohen has arranged in the north-east corner to display the well-known product of this growing Kingston = industry.

Parrott's, Ernesttown Township--Fire In Drive House Extinguished. The lightning on Wednesday morning was so severe in Ernest- town township that a horse owned by J. C. Parrott, who resides on the provincial highway about two miles from Odessa, was instantly killed while standing in the stable. About three o'clock, Mr. and Mrs. Parrott were awakened from their slumbers by the heavy storm. Upen looking out of the bedroom window Mrs. Parrott saw a reflection in the drive shed. As fast as she could put on a few clothes she ran to the shed and found that the lightning had struck the wall and two um brellas which had been hanging there were ablaze. With a couple of pails of water a fite in the drive shed was extinguished. Upon gofug into the stable, about forty feet away, it was found that one of the korses had been killed the flash, which was seen to strike the building by Mrs. Parrott. When making an investigation later it was found that the lightning had gone down a post in the barn and how the building did not catch Newman & Shaw THE ALWAYS BUSY STORE Estate FOR SALE--One of the cholo est building lots in the city, corner Mack and Fromteaac.
