Reports from the various depart- ments presented at a meeting of the quarterly official boards of Queen Street United Church of Canada, held on Monday nfght, showed steady growth. The pastor, Rev. W. H Raney, presided at the meeting, and all the reports were of a most en- couraging nature. The report of the treasurer, Chief Armstrong, was read, and showed that the church finances were in a healthy conndition. The conference year closing March 1st showed a small balanc n hand, with all ac- counts paid fo date. Arrangements were made for the annual meeting of the congregation next Monday evening, the Young People's League to provide programme, and the La- dies' Aid Society to provide light re- freshments, The election of stewards for the ensuing year resulted in the follow- ing being elected by acclamation: W. J. Crothers, W. J, Lee, George A. Bateman, T. R. Carnovsky, W. H. Cockburn, J. B. Cooke, Judge H. A Lavell, R. Crawford and R. E. Sparks. District visitors' conveners were elected as follows: - Mrs. R. Meek, Mrs. John Crawford, Mrs. James Armstrong, Mrs. L. W. Williams, Mrs. W. T. Jeukins, Mrs. R. J. Mec- Clelland, Mrs. BE. Godwin, Mrs. W. J. Crothers, C. B, Ferguson, W. T. Jenkins, W H. Arthurs, ¥. T. Payn- ter, with John McCallum as chair- man, The treasurer of the church, Chief James Armstrong, was re-elected. Recording Steward T. R. Carnovsky was also re-elected, and it is inter- esting to note that he has occupied the position of recording steward for forty-three years, thirty-seven years of which were with the Brock Street Methodist Church, and six years with Queen Street Church. This probably is a record for continuous service in that position. A communication was received from the session of Cooke's Church, inviting Queen Street Church to again unite for services during the months of July and August this year. The firnvitation was heartily accepted, and a committee, consist- ing of Judge Lavell, G. A. Bateman and Rev. W. H, Raney, was appoint- ed to arrange the details. A committee to arrange for a meeting of the congregation is com- thers, and W. H. Cockburn.

BAILIE | A VETERAN PRINTER Slept Away on Monday | Night. a Grand OIid Citizen Quietly! | | | An old time job printer, William | Bailie, died at his home on Barrie | | street, on Monday night, on the] | eighty-sixth anniversary of his birth, | | following a short {illness from; | pleuro-pneumonia. Deceased was | born in Kingston, in 1840, son of| Hugh Baille. a shoe dealer. His] uncles were Henry and Isaac Bailie] (twins), who were also job printers in this city, and humorists of fame. William learned his trade with Creighton and Lightfoot and was an | adept printer. J About half a century ago he| purchased the job printing plant pre-| viously carried on by the late John | Creighton, for whom he had pre-| viously worked. For twenty-five) years thereafter Mr. Bailie carried | on his work being of the highest | character and with an artistic touch | that was appealing to his clients. | Then all work was done by hand.! He was the official printer for Queen's University and was scrupu- lously careful in handling and print-| ing examination papers. | | i He had a] closed shop when this work was be-, ing done. He was beloved by his| employees and many an apprentice | recalls his kindly manner and ap-| preciative helpfulness. He twice oc- | cupied quarters in the old Whig of-| tice on King street and once on] Brock street over 'the Merchants | Bank. | Some twenty-five years ago Mr. | Bailie retired, feeling that he was] entitled to enjoy his well-earned patrimony. His cozy home on] Barrie street,--the upper one of the! twin houses facing the Cricket Field--was his care in his retire- ment. He was a lover of flowers, | and his summers were spent in his; garden, his blooms being rare, fragrant. and -beautiful. His roses | were the admiration of the citizens | and he worthily maintained his| reputation of "Kingston's Rose] King." ' | He loved music, read extensively, | delighted in companionship with his | friends, was witty and sparkling in| conversation and a lover of jokes. | Many a one he "worked off" on his | associates and friends. He was an old time Liberal, zealous for its prominence in Kingston. He attend- | ed St. Andrew'® church, and, when | in vigorous manhood, seldom miss-| ed being in his pew. He revered his! o'd time pastors, Dr, T. G. Smith and | Dr. John Mackie. He was a mem- ter of the Independent Forester Order. In recent years Mr. Baille was] afflicted with semi-blindness but | with quiet patience he bore the loss | and maintained a cheerful happy | spirit to the last. 4 | Deceased is survived by his widow, one daughter, Mrs. A. C. Johnson, | Kingston, and two grandsons, W. 8. | Johnson; Montreal, and A. CO. John. | son, Toronto, and several great | grand-children, also by one sister, | Miss Hattie Bailie, Kingston. His! many friends, old and young - will, with sorrowful hearts, offer sincere condolences to those who mourn. | One of Kingston's truest, noblest | and most worthy citizens has gone | from us. -------------- The good Face Creams and Pow- lers are sold at Gibson's.
