Curtis at Winchester, The ' Winchester Press in this week's issué refers to the visit there of a former pastor, Rev. J. K. Curtis, of Kingston, andl of the many warm friends he had who were pleased to see him again, also the. very large congregation that gathered last Sun- day when he preached there.

Of interest to every Canadian motorist is Mr. Weesel's statement that Ontario highways are far and away superior to those encountered across the Ifme. On the trip north from Denver, the party travelled a distance of approximately 1,000 miles before striking any concrete roads, in contrast to the beautiful highways over which they travelled in our own Province. Established by a Kingstonian. The Hamilton Spectator is eighty years of age. It was established on July 15th, 1848, by Mr. Robert R. Smiley, a Kingston printer, and a friend of Sir John A. Macdonald. The enterprise was a successful one, and Smiley's venture prospered, but he was not long spared to reap the fruits of his industry, he died in 1855. He established the journal to preach the doctrine of moderation to allay the bitterness which followed the re- bellion of 1837. ' Team Had Tire Trouble. Motor trips do have their troubles even for baseball players. The Vic- toria baseball team which played in Ottawa Thursday had some tire trouble in Prescott, and was held up Friday morning. ®ires for the large bus which they were using could not, be had there, 'so it was necessary to have them sent down from Kingston 'which caused quite a delay. However the team arrived quite safely about three o'clock this afternoon. \ ' A ------ | Cam Zinder B a Who said the boys were getting homesick? They make a rush for the mail as soon as it comes in the evenings and are "tickled pink" to get a letter from home, but they are quite contented to stay at the camp. Some of the boys who have to leave at the end of the week to continue their work in the city, are wishing that they could stay over with the rest, There/ are absolutely no signs of discontentment and as for meals, belts have to be loosened after each meal. ; A Another wonderful camp-fire was enjoyed Thursday night, all the boys taking part. The spirit of competi tion overcame any shyness of getting up before other boys to sing or tell a story. Some very amusing and enter- 'taining humorous songs were sung 'both by the group and in solos. The scout-master and the assistant scout- master sang an ol English folk- song "There's a hole in my bucket." At meal time the officers visit each tent in turn, which instills into boys a desire to. have everything just right. The kitchens and the tents are kept spic and span, everything being in its place. : Many visitors are coming to the camp during the week but the Visi: tor's Day is Wednesday August 25th, when .a special programme will be | fish or If, the fish would catch him.
