The Editor Hears That the vast throng 'that filled St. George's cathedral on Monday when the beloved dean and rector was present in the body for the last time, were comforted and calmed by the strains of "Safe in the Arms of Jesus," played on the organ, now softly and again swelling into great chords that carried the assurance that the one they loved was with Him whose ways are not our ways, nor His thoughts our thoughts. "The friend of man" was the way one of those who paid tribute to his mem- ory spoke of him, and those who knew him in the days before disease had taken hold of 'him, realize its truth. In the big church there were men and women with streaming eyes who remembered "Canon Starr" coming to them in their need, sitting with their dying relatives; through the long hours of the night, carry- ing food and clothing to them with his own hands, and slipping a five. dollar bill to the mother from his own pocket. Young men and women remember the cathedral curate who knew the name of every child in the Sunday school. In the crowd out- side the church were men bowed with age, men of other communions who had received help from the man who has passed from our midst. Among the flowers that covered tha casket was a wreath from the King- ston Girl Guides, many of them be- longing to other congregations, who remembered the kindly face that al- ways brightened for the children. As the procession passed, a young man, who had been a choir boy and is now a returned officer, said in a broken voice: "There are few men in King- ston who could command the tears that have been shed for him." That some of the chapters of the I.LO.D.E. are wearing a purple rib- bon with their badge out of respect for "the memory of the Queen Mo- ther. The order has cabled its re- spectful sympathy to Their Majes- ties, King George and Queen Mary. That the Women's Institutes of Central Ontario meeting in Toronto last week passed some important re- solutions. Among them was one in favor of women considering moral issues rather than party lines in municipal, provincial and dominion eléctions and one urgently request- ing the Minister of Health to pro- vide training and instruction for home service nurses in whatever way he thinks best and declared themselves ready to co-operate with the Department of Health in the matter. Another important resolu- tion was one urging all women fo "boost" Canadian industries. At the close of the convention, Mrs. George Putnam, wife of the super- intendent of Women's Institutes in the province, was presented with a handsome purse, and Mr. Putnam re- ceived the gold to fill it. ---------- Miss HASELL SPEAKS. On Van Mission to W. A. in St. James' Parish Hall. Miss Hasell, the bright English girl who gives her services free of charge to the work of the Van Mis- sion and the Sunday School by Post of the Anglican church in the west, spoke in St. James' parish hall on Monday evening to the mem- bers of the city branches of the Wo- man's Auxiliary. Told with a touch of humor, her story Is full of romance but also a tale of high endeavor for those lone- ly ones who are trying to make good In the vast spaces of Western Can- nda. This year Miss Hasell and sev- eral girls, one from Branksome Hal, Toronto, who gave her summer holi- day to this work, were in the new diocese of Brandon where Bishop 'Thomas is trying to break ground. In the district of Darkington, where hd Moirs the worst flood in twenty years de- stroyed the crop, these girls ana their van had many adventures ay they sought to bring the -gospel of Jesus Christ to the settlers in this backward region. The Sunday- School-by-Post is one method and 1,01F children have promised to fol- low the weekly lesson sent monthly in four sections. Miss Hasell showed some excel- lent slides of \the country, the ter. rible roads mes the various means of transportation they had re- course to when the van had to be deserted for a time. The girls walk- ed more than four hundred miles, as well as the 2,000 they travelled by motor.

She also showed slides telling a thrilling story of the trip In the Cariboo district where the gold rush of 1858 and 1860 took place and where the old Cariboo trail can be seen from the C. P.
