Skel- ton and Ald. T. F. Harrison, a hearty vote of thanks was tendered the sponker. vi "When we speak of the concert of the great powers of Europe," said Dr. Horning, "we mean the six-- Britain, Germany, Russia, France, Italy and Austrio--and of tLese we all instinctively, and right- ly pick out two as standing out pre- from the rest, namely, the British and the German. empires. Therefore it is that these two are always in the Dbublic mind, and in the press and in the speech of all peoples, for upon the relationship of these two Titanic, Teutonic nations" of kindred blood and similar, sister tongues depend, for weal or woe, the fate of the warld of man, "Therefore it behooves us Cana- dians, who are rapidly becoming so Strong in. the councils of the British Fmpire, to take sober thought on these problems of Anglo-German re- lations. Gradually the tension has Blown and increased, until in these latter days peril after peril has passed, emergency after emergency has swum into our ken and vanished over the far horizon, and we are left with an uncanny feeling and have a mysterious dread of the next scare or of the possible untoward event which shall set a fuse to all accorded rights, : of their natural The end is not yet. 'The {wentieth century belongs to Can- ada!' Weighty words and true! Bat It ia truer still that the twen- Leth century belongs to man. One of the most striking signs of this twentieth century is the prominence of organized labor parties." "Just consider what momentous chtnges, revolutionary changes, have taken place in the England of to-day, chief among them the victory of. the house of commons. Note the Lipgny measures introduced for the benefit of the laboring man, which have made Lloyd George, the first covimoner of the empire and a dom- inant force in the world," "Therefore," sald the speaker in conclusion, "we ought to be pro- foundly interested in the first step towards the realization of that ideal, namely, the fostering of peace and amity * between the great sisters, England and Germany. Some steps hive already been taken. Arbitra- tion is a substitute for the appeal to arms. It is to the credit of ex-Presi- dent Taft that he has desired to make war impossible between the ricther country and her great daugh- ter." There is really nothing heroic about war. The soldier marching to death to the blare of trumpets and beat of drums is showing a very low ammal kind of courage. The moral erthusiasm which enables man, wo- man and child, alone and unaccom- panied, to.complete the daily round of ecmmon, monotonous tasks with- outeflinching or swerving, and to do this year in and year out, is of a far higher order than martial courage. The Hague tribunal has opened up a rew view. Let the nations of Eur- cpe prove the Superiority of their ciyil'zation by beating their swords into ploughshares, and their spears lito pruning hooks, let them devote their enormous war budgets to the benefit and uplift of mankind, and {then may be ushered in that 'Parlia- ment of man, that federation of the world," of which our poet Tennyson has sung. Then we will be letting 'ape and tiger die,' then and only then assuredly will we be taking a leng step forward toward 'that one fur-off divine event to which the vhele creation moves," the era of 'Peace on earth, goodwill to men.' " THE FIRE COMMITTEE Considers the Duties of the gineer, W. H. Waye Ene the terrible preparations for slaugh- ter and bring about an Armageddon unparalled in the history of world." .. . u With a schplarly grasp of his sub- Ject Dr. Horning indicated clearly tie historical lines of development 02 both nations, and pointed. out Some of the reasons, chiefly commer- cial, 'why there is so much friction. He said that he was fully persuaded thit he who would attempt tq settle these differences by %&ms was looking backward and not forward, that he knew little of the great world problems of today and along which way their solution seems undoubtedly to be guiding us. He continued by pointing out forces whichmake for peace and goodwill. "First among these," said the speak- er, "is the almost miraculous growth 0? the means of bringing the nations of the earth together." * 'The business men of the world," pursued the doctor further on, "with the exception of the armament trusts, are rapidly seeing the point in question and with the awakened and rapidly growing sense of moral responsibility in money matters will use their influence to make war as antiquated as duelling. "But this is not my sole hope. It is not my strongest hope," said he, and he referred to the intellectual force of the travel and study of stu- dente of Britain and Germany, A new force which makes for peace, emphasized the' speaker, has arisen within the past two years and pro- mises to become world-wide in its inuence. "The associated councils of the churches of the British and German Empires for a fostering of a better understanding between the two nations have already in very quiet but effective ways, proved their right to recognition. Not only rang- ed on the side of peace, and consider- ed for long by great numbers of the common people, as linked with their oppressors this universal and ele- mental force of religion scems'about to become a mighty influence for the Universal Peace! Hmil the day!" "Powerful which are the commer- cial forces which tend to do away with war, mighty as are the educa- tional forces, universal as are the rcligious elements, my greatest hope iy in the common man," declared Dr. Honing. "Man was discovered in the. Rendissance, ~ the fleshly man and again in the eighteen century, the man of reason. The new ideas were slow in developing and the ecrth was red in the French revolu- tion. But steadily and surely in the democracy has advanced, the condi- tion of woman has been improved, the mother and the child have been Who Are "Just Ready to Drop."

A lively discussion took. place over the wage of engineers, and that , of the present engineers of the Kings- jton fire department, W. Il. Waye, was discussed at some length. Mr. Waye had forwarded a letter to the commit- tee, asking. .for an increase, and it was finally decided, upon motion of Ald, Stroud, that the salary of the engi- neer be fifteen cents a day over that of a fireman for the same length of ser- vice, and that he be required to do extra, duties such as fireman under in- I struction from the chief. The present engineer will also be given the option of continuing his duties as engineer only with present salary, 'or duties of fircman-and eogineer combined with a salary as mentioned above. Armstroug read a report wherein he stated the salaries and duties of fire department engineers in various places. Chief Armstrong recommended some | alteration to be made at No. 2 sta- \ tion for the purpose of securing quick- ef response to . fires and also better care of homes. It was decided to go ,abead with the improvements. In attendance at the meeting were \lds. Sutherland, Stroud and Hanley. First.
