The officers of military district | No. 3, who attended the staff tour !this week, were the guests at a splen- did bdnquet in the Frontenac Club on Friday evening. The occasion {was marked by the greatest spirit { of unity, and all of the speakers who contrfbuted to the enjoyment of the evening aroused the feeling of good fellowship. Brig.-Gen. W. B. King, G.0.C., M.D. No. 3, presided, and the princi- pal speakers were Maj.-Gen. Sir A. C. | Macdonell, Col. Macphail, Col. Ed- wards, = Lieut.-Col. McLaughlin, | Lieut.<Col. Dawson, Lieut.-Col. H. E. | Pense, and Major J. Alman Lefer- riere,,of the Hull regiment. All of the speakers referred to the {tactical problems ef the tour, and i the value of the experience, but while [this was one of the objects it was |also the desire of the staff to pro- | mote an esprit de corps by getting | together and bringing about the re- organization of the militia. As a re- sult of the week's tour, local tours will be held at a later date at Peter- boro and Ottawa. The addresses of Col. Hill and Major Laferriere were very fine, both speakers being re- peatedly applauded. Gen. King in his address showed a deep appreciation of the needs of this district and is anxious to have the units under his command reach a high state of efffeiency. NAVY LEAGUE CAMPAIGN A Banquet on Friday Night-- $8,000 is Asked From Kingston. | _ U8 At a banquet in the British Ameri- can hotel on Friday evening given by the Kingston Naval Brigade a rumber of very fine addresses were given at the conclusion of which an ofganization was formed to conduct the drive for subscriptions with which to carry on the work of the Navy League in Canada. A resolution was passed in which the amount to be raised in Kingston was fixed at $8,- 000 and in the county of Frontenac $4,000, making in all $12,000. The drive will commence on Trafalgar Day, October 21st next, but in the meantime all of the officers and the members of the executive which was formed of practically all of those in | attendance at the banquet, will carry | on the work among their friends and | acquaintances. On Sunday Rev. A. S. Boal, the chief speaker of the | evening, will deliver an address in| the Strand theatre. | Mayor Wickle; 2nd vice-president, H. W. Newman; 3rd vice-president, ccmmander of the Kingston brigade; treasurer, Mr. Newman, managen of the Royal Bank; secretary, Sherman Hill; assistant secretary, Lt. H. Shaw; executive committee, R. J. Bushell, Lt.-Col. R. J. Gardiner, Dean Starr, Mr. Adney, J. C. Ponsford, Mr. Sky, George Young, Mr. Hudson, Mr. Cavanagh, Capt. C. Kane, Mr. Mc- Donald, Lt.-Col. Bedell. Captain, the Rev. A. S .Boal, gave a most inspiring address upon the British'Ndvy and the Mercantile Mar- ine. He dealt with the rise of Bri- tish sea power, so essential to the life of the Empire, the enormous resources of the various dominions and the need of maintaining the com- munications by sea. It was becom- ing more and more essential that British ships of all kinds should be manned By British sailors, and it was hoped that the people of Can- ada might become fully aware of the duty and opportunity to take a greater part in providing the neces- sary men for naval and cerchant service. The work of the Navy League of Canada was dest with in detail and the number of boys being fitted under its care for seafaring life entitled the organization to the ful- lest sympathy of the public. Capt. al told of the work of 'a similar | « 'ganization in othér parts of the empire and showed the enormous value it was. He was followed by Dean Starr and FARMER COLLECTED TOLL.
