Not by alien hordes or base traitors, but by eleven-year- old Muriel Kerr, the musical prodigy of the Canadian West, no, of the Dominion, for Muriel is certainly the most remarkable figure in the musi- cal world of Canada to-day. 'She is to play at the Memorial Hall to- night under the auspices of the Ki- wanis Club of Kingston, but an ex- tract. from the long and eulogistic report of the Ottawa Evening Jour- nal, descriptive of Muriel's playing at the Russell Theatre on. Friday. may be welcome to those who have not yet decided to attend her recital this evening, The Journal says: "Neither fulsome praise nor exagger- ation have been bestowed on little Muriel Kerr. Those who heard her have come away with the impression of bewildering wonder that so young a child could possess such amazing power and captivate her audience with such emotional beauty. Her programnie was one of wide range, and would have tested the endur- ance of many a mature player., A feature worthy of observance was the manner in which Miss Kerr pass- ed from one movement to another without pause in the Beethoven and Goddard numbers, thus preserving an "even balance of the whole and stopping the mistaken but kindly ap- plauge which disturbs the sequence of thought "in most concerts."-- Advt. A - ) i MISSION IN ST. GEORGE'S Was Opened on Sunday by the Rev. Ensor Sharpe of Toronto. - The missioner, Rev. Ensor Sharpe, who is conducting a ten days' mis- sion at St. Georges' Cathedral, deliv- ered a powerful sermon at the ele- ven o'clock service in the cathedral on Sunday morning, taking his text from the 139th Psalm, and speaking on the omni-presence of f§od. People try to get away from the fact that God is with them in all their ways, in the office, in the school, the college, the barracks. Some would deny Him, though few really do. We only hear of one instance in the bible, "The fool hath said in his heart, There 1s no God." "You will notice it is in his heart, not in his brain, that the fool said there was no God" God's ap- peal is to the heart, to the affec- tions, for God is love. On Calvary He bore the sins of the whole world in His Body, our, sins, yours and mine, and the pa of our neglect and ingratitude. We think of the great sins that crucified Christ, but the little sins, are the thorns that pierced his brow, the little sins we all sin every day. At three o'clock there was a ser- vice for the children and young peo- ple at which the children of St. George's Mission school were pres. ent, being brought up in cars by members of the congregation. Rev. Mr. Sharpe spoke to them of the things each could do to make the mission a success and told them or the ways they could please God their Father who had done so much for them, At evensong the cathedral was again crowded, and after a short service the mission proper began, Rev. Mr. Sharpe being the speaker. "This mission," he said, "is your mission. I am only God's messenger to you. Why do we have a mission? The answer fs on a hill with three crosses and on the centre cross is the Son of God." The short address, sing of hymns and prayers followed. The missioner is a man of commanding presence, great personal magnetism and pow- erful intellect and the large congre- gation listened with wrapt attention to the old, old story of God's love, Man's sin and the Sacrifice of the Cross for the sins, of the whole world. ------ Simple Deduction. "Now, tell me the truth," said the fussy old lady to the corner mendi- cant, "are you really blind?" "Yes, ma'am," said the beggar. "What is that I am about to give you?" "A nickel Ma'am." "Ha! If you are blind how do you know it's a nickel?" "Because, ma'am, I never get more than a nickle out of people like you." Mrs. G. M. Wood died in Toronto. She was born in Brockville, daugh- ter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Miller. . For community good the public spirited man can get his field of op+ eration too large. Theatrical !

It is an in- Productions, and the pictures, made un- der Mr, Stahl's personal be presented by Louis B. Mayer. initial offering of this company, accord- ing to advance reports, is one of the most dramatic stories ever filmed. The [story evolved about a startingly novel sithation--one that has never been done before in film--and the suspense and tenseness throughout make this one of the outstanding achievements in movie history. The cast is of all-star calibre, including such celebrities as Lewis Stone, Barbara Castleton, William Des- mond, Adele Farrington, Winter Hall and last, but not least, little Richard Headrick alias "Itchie," who has won his way into millions of hearts by his acting in previous pictures--Advt. oS. *1 34s 67 vbgkqj bm bmmbf = At the Strand As a book "The Sheik" has had. a phenomenal sale, Like "Charley's Aunt," it is still running. A Kingston- ian who bought a copy has already lent it to several friends, and he has a long waiting list. And the picture? Well, the waiting list for this is enormous. The day after the closing showing of "The Sheik" at the Strand in January film fans of many types asked if "The Sheik" had finished here, or if it was coming again. Some had missed it, others had seen it and wanted their friends to see it. To-day is the opening of the second run of "The Sheik" in Kingston. The Strand management have made elaborate preparations for this showing. Extra music will be given, and Miss Mignon Telgmann wilt lead. The haunting melody of the "Kashmiri Song" will be heard again in the theatre, where it made such an im- pression two months ago. The way of an Arab chief with a haughty English noblewoman, the ways of fierce' Arabs whose lives are passed in nomadic ad- venture on the burning sands of the desert, the way of a French author torn between love of the ill-fated English girl and a life-long affection for his friend the sheik--all these are picture- ized with a strength and beauty rarely surpassed on the screen. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday the Strand will present "Three Live Ghosts," a picture which has taken rank as one of the most comical phofoplays ever filmed. Which is saying something !--Advt. Late Mrs. Goodfellow, Godfrey. Godfrey, March 21.--A gloom was cast over the neighborhood on Sun- day last when the people learned that Mrs. Margaret Goodfellow had passed away at the Kingston General hospital. The deceased was sixty- four years of age, and had been a resident of this place nearly all her life.

Taylor Dale, pastor of Cooke's church. It was the first fumeral of a pup+ lic character to take place in Kings ston for a long time, and the popa~ larity of the deceased was shown in a remarkable degree by the-repre- sentative nature of the throngs that made up the procession.

But recently he not only withdrew from his honored position, put ceased to be as regular an at- tendant at church as formerly. The minister, who came to call at the Brown home, demanded the reason for this failure. "My rheumatism is much worse than it has been for years,"" Mr. -Brown began, 'and I cannot -walk so far." "Tut, tut!" laughed the minister, "I believe it is lack of religion." "Sir," Mr. Brown drew himself up firmly, "my religion ils in my heart--anot in my legs."
