The cadets have long since 'proven themselves worthy of a {place in the senior ranks and through {the resignation of Ottawa ( ollege, who were not invited to return to the fold, a place was made for the Kingston team. The junior series of the union was also extended and Michael's College of 'loronto was admitted to membership for the first time The season of I¥13 will not open until Tater mm October, the opening games being set for a week later than this year, the played on Saturday, October 1lth with Queen's at Metall and Toronto at the Royal Military College. I'he session was a lengthy one to the numerous amendments which came up for discussion. The majority of these were defeated while some im- portant ones were passed which in the opimon of the delegates will benefit the game greatly. hat points must be earned is made evident by the adoption of aha amendment to the counting of points. Herealter a try secured by a team through the fumbling of the opposing hacks will only count three points, while a try secured by a player carry- ing the bali over his opponents' line shall count five, with an addition of another point for a converted goal In past season substitutes were allow ed only in case of injury while in fut- ure they may he put in at any time which will go to make the game faster as it will keep the teams supplied with fresh players throughout the playing periods Probe in Lae St. due ably the greatest surprise came adoption of the amendment to player five yards to make a catch from a Kick, in place of three yards as has been the rule for th past thre if a player com mits a fou! within his opponents' lin there shall be no score as the result of it and the ball will be scrimmaged by the offending side five vards out trom the goal. 'The Metall advanced several good arguments in favor of having the ball snapped back from a scrimmage in place of heeling it out, but ihis amendment met with Little favor in the opinions of the oth er delegates, due to the fact that ip adopting this rule the two side scrim- mage men would have to be dropped. Onside interference was more ex- plicitly defined at dhe request of Qugen's club; and in future a player on the line will be enabled to advance two, yards in making a hole in the op posing line for a buck. \ committee to take charge of senior division was appointed, sisting of Graham Ross, Metall; say Malcolm, of Queen's and Maynard, of Varsity as secretary following officers were, elected: Honorary President--Uelonel J.

FIRE C AR TPRINC IFLES. Power and Speed Are The Essentials. In the application of the motor car to fire service, the period of kbx- perimenting and development has passed and radical changes in de- sign are not to be expected Three broad principles have been estab- lished --strength, power, and speed. | A fire-car must withstand very short but terrifically hard runs. It must have suflicient power to over- come every obstacle in the shortest possible time, climb all grades, and travel through all conditions of mud and snow. The plegsure car is not built to cvercome or meet such contingen- cies, and the motor driven appara- tus must be balanced. and have such weight that it will handle successfully on sharp curves, haits, and advances and meet every condi- tion of traffic or street surface. A very low cenire of gravity, broad gauge, or tread are necessary, re- quirements for the safety of men and car.--Advt. | Strength, Causing More Trouble.

A short time ago Mr. Allard appeared before Justice of the Peace George Hunter charged with having threatened to :hoot .a man, and was bound over to keep the peace.
