W THE DAILY miuTISH WHIG, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 6, Books for IS REQUIRED AT THE GENERAL! $ HOSPITAL. An Earnest Effort Will Have to be Made Along That Direction Warm Tribute to Service Render-| ed by Late Willie Glenn. i The reguiar mopluy meeting of the board of governors 'of the Kingston General Hospital, was held on Monday | afternoon, . at four o'clock, in the, board room, Present: James A.| Miones (chairman), F. ©. Lockett, B.| W. Robertson, Rev. Dr. Mackie, Prof. | Marshall, F. Welch, Rev. D. Laing, | Col. Massie and F. Spangenberg. The report of the committee of management showed that a number of improvements had been energetically taken hold of during the past month, telephones installed, painting, kalsom- ining, decorating, ete.; all of which will | tend to increase the efficiency and com- fort of the hospital. The visiting governors hfought in al very satisfaciory, and quite a hy report, alluding particularly to the marked improvement in all parts of the hospital, since their last visit, which occurred neatly a year ago. The question of the need mors accom- modation, was again alluded to by these governors, who stated that the need was now becoming so great that an earnest effort would very soon have to be minde. A very touching and interesting re- ference was made to the late William Glenn, who, for over forty years, had given the best service which his con- | dition admitted of. So long had been his connection with the hospital, that he seemed almost an intergral part of the institution itself. The report of the medical superin- tendent showed that the usual activ-' ity had been maintained throughout | the month of Oectober; 147 patients admitted and 135 discharged. The relatives of the late Glenn wrote a letter to the governors, medical superintendent, medical staff, nurses and Miss Hunter, in which they expressed their deep appreciation of the kind, courteous and sympatheeic treatment extended to the late Willie Glenn at all times during his sojourn at the Kingston general hospital, which in time he came to look upon as his home, and here he said, him- self, his dearest and closest friends were to be found. = More particularly | are they grateful for the care and at- tention given him during his recent | illness, leaving nothing further that | could be done. { A hearty vote of thanks was passed » the board of: governors to the Woinen's Aid Society for so kindly un- dertaking and completing the painfing of 'the outside of the buildings, in-! cluding the nurses' home. J Visiting governors for the present | month are Prof. Marshall and F. Spangenberg. IN LABOR CIRCLES.

The theatre was packed to the very doors, and her tirst reception in her native land must have warmed the young player's heart, She is young and bas everythinz in her favor--personal charm, modesty, an unruffled éalm, and a magnificent technical equipment. Many retalls greeted her first effort and when she came back and played Tartipi's mar. vellous work, "The Devil's Thrill,' the audience sat spellbound. Indeed, it seemed no earthly music that flowed from her violin. Her toue is the finest singing tone we have had since Ysaye's ! greatest days. One of Sarasates Span- ish dances she played with fire, fers vour and jonate coloring." iss Parlow, who is a Srilliant art- ist and' a ine musician, will be heard in Grant Hall, Thursday even: ing, Dec. Sth. "The White Squaw." A play that is said to have valid claim upon the admiration #nd pa- tronage of votaries of the stage is "The White Squaw," the romantic Am- erican drama to be seen at the Grand (return engagement), Saturday, De- cember 10th, matinee and night. . The play is by the actor-author, Della M. Ularke, ahd the scenes are laid in Michigan, about an hundred years ago. "The White Squaw" is a story. of primitive folk of simple custom and straightforward living and, like strings that vibrate in musical har- mony, the elements of love, romance, laughter and heart interest are em- ployed in the making of a spoken and acted melody. There is not the slight- est vestige of vice, villainy or sensa- tion to the play. ny St. George's Scouts. The "Beaver" patrol ob the George's Boy Scouts, left the city at 1 a.m. last Saturday and marching to Dend Man's Bay, lit some fires and cooked their dinners.

Then followed prac- tice in makiny shelters out of scout's staves and small branches of trees. Part of the second class scout ex- amination was tried and successfully passed by some of the Boys. Instrue- tions in bandaging dnd carrying wounded persons was also given by the scoutmaster, The troops returned to the city at about § p.m. St. Chusches Already Covered.

Dearer Coffee. The housekeeper will have to make up her mind to pay more for the favorite breakfast beverage in the near future or buy a poorer quality, and few are prepared to do the latter. Reliable information from South Am- erican countries confirms previous re- ports that the growing coffee crop will bé much beneath the average and totally inadequate to meet the de mands of the constantly increasing consumption. Importers are now paying. 4 to 5 cents per pound more than six months ago and as the profit of the retail dealer i= none too large on high grade cofices, he will either have to increase his selling price or accept a profit much smaller than he ought to et considering 'the expenses of a well managed retail establishment, The consumer has the consolation that old prices will no doubt be restored in the course of a vear or so, and it is more than probable the crop of 1911 will be a good one.

Carson, chairman of the water. works committee, desires to sav that he has no excuse to offer for recom mending the city council to buy weld- od steel pipe to replace the inshore portion of the intake.
