P. Chown Elected President. The annual meeting of the King- i ston and Frontenac Children's Ald Society was held at the Court House on Wednesday ' afternoon. There was a good attendance of members. Dr, BE. C. D. MacCallum, the presi- dent, was in the chair. In addressing the gathering, the president sald that the members de- served great credit for attending so many of the meetings, and remarked that the meeting of the executive had also been a success. He paid tribute to the late Miss Ida Ronan, who had left a bequest of $100 to the Children's Aid Seclety, and to the late Miss Taylor. also men- tioned that the es ons of Mr. E. A, Sirett, and Mrs. C. C. Abbott, would be received with regret. The society was putting on a special campaign for funds, and he urged the citizens to respond. Rev. Mr. Black, the agent, had found it ex- tremely difficult to carry on without the aid of a stenographer, because he had to travel, and at the same time attend to his corerspondence. Dr, McCallum also mentioned the fact that the society would appreci- ate it if the citizens of Kingston would endow the society, and stated that other societies could "carry on" by this means. The idea of the Orphans' Home and Infants' Home was to use these institutions until the children could be placed in suitable foster homes. The society had received a generous offer from the ladies of the Orphans' Home, who offered to take care of the children being held hy the so- ciety. There were five children who belonged to the society, and homes had been found for four of these. There were two things in which the society had failed. One was that they had not been able to make arrangements for the mentally defi- cient children in their care, with the Ontario government, and the other was that there had been no juvenile court formed in Kingston of the kind that the society wanted. Judge McKinley, of Ottawa, was coming to Kingston to speak on this subject, and he hoped that he would be suc- cessful in influencing the city to take definite action. The juvenile court acted like a father or brother to the delinudnts, and it had been A success in other centres. Mr. Black was 'deserving of great praise for his untiring work among the children. The rural work took up a great part of his time, and he found little time to de- vote to matters that were very ur- gent, The president thanked the Wo- men's Institutes of Westport and Pittsburgh for donations of clothing, and also the city churches. He also thanked Mr. T. A. Kidd, Father Coyle, Mr. Herrington atid Mr, Brad- ll| shaw. 'The county council and the ll ¥resh Cod Fish, 1 1b, pks. 14. [f | Good, Sweet Oranges, doz. 25¢.

Dr. McCallum stated that he had held the position of president for three years, and he thought that it was time that some one else had a chance fto take this position. He then offered his resignation. He had enjoyed the work. Mr. T. A. Kidd then presented the financial report, which showed an overdraft of over $400. This was mainly due to the fact that some of the cities, for which the society was taking care of children, had not paid up all their accounts. Thirty- five of the wards were paid for and this helped to keep down the ex- penses. The fact was emphasized that the grants will have to larger of the society is to carry on its ~~ | work.

Mr. Black, the local agent of the soclety, presented his report, He stated that the work was three-fold in its character; the supervision of wards, the care of the wards and the finding of homes for the child- ren. These duties have been laid on the Children's Aid Society, There were seventy new wards added with- in the. year. This made a total of x EGA LETTERS | To The Editor Much Is Expected. To the Bditor of The Whig: It Is encouraging to see how the members of the United Church are meeting the mew duties which they have! taken upon themselves. They are] everywhere recognizing that the need of the world, which was the compelling force behind the chureh union movement, now calls them to greater service and sacrifice. } In the discussion of the last few years, it Was frequently emphasized that union would mean economy in men and means. This contention 1s correct; but there was a danger that no greater work would be under- taken by the church and that smaller personal sacrifice would be suf- ficient. It is now clear that fears in this regard were groundless, and that throughout the church there is a deepening semse of individual re- sponsibility for the welfare of others. Much is expected of the United Church at this time--at the outset of its career. The eyes of many, the world over, are upon it to see what the results will be of its great ad- venture. It is a question whether any Christian body has ever had such a magnificent opportunity for leader- ship in doing good as now opens out before this new church. J. MATHESON. Kingston, Nov. 19th. Sacrifices Grim tragedy stalks the corridors of Queen's University. Every "@ini- versity student expects during his college life to make some sacrifices for the cause of higher education, but there are at least two at Queen's who have been called on to face a crisis .and they have responded out- | wardly calm but with untold secret | anguish. Two notices have been | posted on the bulletin boards. One | reads: "For Sale--Dress suit, medi-| um size, in good cpndition, with necessary accessories. Cheap." The other is along a similar line: "Banjo for Sale." Perhaps these treasurers of a happier day are to be sold to buy text books or theatre tickets or some other necessary educational acces- sory. re more will the banjo spread gladneSs and sunshine throughout the boarding house, and the present owner of the dress suit is destined to attend no more dances.

Belleville, Nov. 19.--David Grant, hunting at Weslemkoon Lake, figur- ed in a strange adventure. He was resting on a pine stump, and not twelve feet away a large buck stuck his nose out of a thicket. Mr. Grant fired at him, striking him in the nose. Either by momentum or in a charge, the deer fell against Grant, and both fell in a heap, Other members of the party were near and ran to the hunter's rescue.

At a meeting of the Ontario Asso- ciated Boards of Trade and Cham- bers of Commerce in Kingston a de- [|i Falls i chamber submitted a resolution call- if legation from the Niagara ing upon the Hydro-Electric Power Commission to restrict tiie power to domestic consumers for the benefit of industrial users. The ar- gument is that by diverting the cur- rent into the homes, the factories are in danger of being starved. Instead of encouraging the use of electricity |} for domestic appliances, the commis- sion, it is contended, should do all it can to restrict suth use, in order that Hydro power might bé available for the development of industry. It i will not surprise readers to learn that the resolution met with & con- siderable amount of opposition. It carried b, ever; but, in view of the almost equal division of the vote, the mo- i} tion was withdrawn and a special committee appointed te bring the subject to the attention of the com- mission. The object of the Hydro is public service, and service in the home should not be made to take a back seat to service in business. There is enough electricity available in the |} national waterways to supply all nor- mal needs. What the chambers of commerce should condentrate upon is the effort. of the Hydro to secure the greater utilization of those wat® erways rather than restriction of the sale of current. By supplying the homes with convenient labor-saving devices a strong stimulus is given to trade in various articles which, with- out the enterprise of the commission, would be bought. Consumers' re- quirements are paramount; it is to satisfy those requirements that jn- dustry exists.
