They first heard their cheerful whistle and then saw the birds flying from tree to tree. They were quite happy and were making friends with the bright little chick- a-dees who came out to see the visi- tors, full of curiosity, Their black caps. white collars and grey coat give them a smart look and they call '"'chick-a-dee-dee-dee," in a hoarse voice that seems too loud and deep for 'such a small body. -- & That a press note says, "The curious thing at this date is not that women's presence on school boards should be advoeated but that they should have been so long excluded. The whole idea of women's position in social Ife and their ability to take their place, independently of any question branches df the public administra- tion, comes principally from the movement for women's higher edu- cation and its results. Their par- ticipation in public affairs no longer makes men 'tremble in fear of be- ing 'crowded out.' That there is room for both sexes has long been obvious. According to a recent re- turn there are now upward of one hundred women'in the national par- laments of the world, eight being in the British House of Commons, though st present they are barred 'trom the House of Lords.

Canada's Oldest House } Several Kingstonians are inter-| ested in Canada's oldest house the first residence of the Jesuit Fa- thers, in Sillery, Que., which was this year purchased by the Prov- ince of Quebec, through the genmer- osity of the sons of one of Canada's distinguished families. The sons of Hon. R. R. Dobell, minister of. the] Laurier Cabinet of 1896 gave the old. house to the Commission of Historical Monuments. This, the first residence of the Jesuits In Canada was built in 1639 by Father Ennemond Masse, the first mission- ary who arrived in Canada and M Commandant de Siilery. In the tirst years of the nineteenth cen- tury when the last Jesuit died, their properties were transferred to the state and the house became the royal store in Sillery. Later it be- came part of the Dobell manior "Beauvior." It is situated at the foo: of the cape, at L' Anse au Foulon where General Wolfe's soldiers ar- rived on the eve of the battle of the Plains of Abraham. The remains of Father Masse were found under the old church. Tkis is said to be the second oldest building on the continent, the oldest being at St Augustine, Florida. Mrs, Dobel!, senior, was a Miss Molson or mont. real and the Molsons are closely connécted with several Kingston families. a. WOMEN'S MEETINGS Chalmers W.MS. The new study book, "New Days {n Old India," formed the basis of a most interesting and instructive pa- {per by Mrs. I. Allan at Chalmers IW.M.S. on Wednesday afternoon. The field is Central India, where the people Mve in villages more or leas isolated, a population of over two million. The contrast between the | condition of these people fifty years {ago and their condition now was very |elearly brought out ~ and showed iwhat a wonderful transformation I had been wrought by the gospel of Jesus. Mrs. Archibald Strachan gave a most interesting sketch of an Indian celebration which fis being held this week (in Lawrence, Kansas, US.A. Ti is unique in that it re- sembles very closely the present cam- paign being held for Queen's Endow- ment Fund. The occasion is the opening at Haskell Institute of a new stadium, bulit end paid for entirely by the ed men at a cost of over a qua of a million. The Indians of this district have become wealthy through the ownership of vast oil fields and the subscriptions of many of them Tun into the tems of thoii- sands. A football game for which ali schools, stores and places of busi- ness close, will be one of the features of this big celebration. .-Mre. F.
