Sein the Kiwanis Club on Monday ut Hugh 'C. Nickle, at the request of Kiwanian A. H. Fair, told them of some of the difficulties that the rail way was meeting. The first franchise for a horse car for Kingston was granted in 1876, he zaid, and this city was also on: of the first places in Ontario to get a franchise for an electric railway. When the electric reilway was first started here, the | fare was five cents and the wages to the men was $1.16 for 15 hours' work. . Now the fare is still five cents and thd wages $3.26 for ten hours' work. In 1925, said Mr Nickle, the total revenue from the railway was $52,- 000, of which $37,000 was paid out iu wages; $6,200 went for power; and almost $1,000 went for taxes. These were - only some of the ex- penses. While the street railway was the second largest user of power in the city, it was the only concern that had pot received a cut in rates. Mr. Nickle remarked that he heard lois of knocks given fhe railway but he had not heard anyone say that in 1017 and 1918 when a coal famine threatened, the railway had offered to elose down so that the power could be used for munition plants and other war industries. The speaker also made a plea for more. cosoperatiofi from motorists to accidents, In January and February of 1925 there occurr three accidents, while in the first two months of this year there had been sixteen accidents and iu not one was the street railway responsible. Kiwanian Harold Davis reported that arrangements for the Kiwanis Carnival - were progressing very smoothly and Kiwanians Jack I'Esterre, George Bawden and W. Y. Mills reported as chairmen of com- mittees. Kiwanian Leonard Jerome was the booster and the prizés were won by Harry Wildep- and George Hanson.

' Two portions of scripture | were given by Miss Mary Porter and Miss Isabel Veale, The topic for the evening was "Persevere'" and was ably handled by Willtam Bruce. Mr. | Bruce told of many men who, in the face of great opposition, succeeded because they persevered. He men- tioned Columbus and Livingston, and said they would never have won out but for their bulldog grip. He dealt with his subject in two parts. Per- severance in material things and in the spiritual things. "To persevere," sald Mr. Bruce, "it isbnecessary to 'have an objective to strive for, and to be prepared to meet difficulties in the way. We must be able to en- dure to the end and never let go. Service is measured by love, and if we would serve Christ we must Iqve Him. Christ is the ideal of what man should be and we should strive to be like Him." The second part of the meeting was entitled "Steps to Heaven," and 0 1d eral members dealing with the dif- ferent steps taken.
