Amen psi erculosls committee was held in the Randolph hotel on Tuesday evening, and progress in the campaign for the co-operation of al classes of citizens, public bodies, eocial or- | \ganization and churches, was report- \j led by several of those present. G. A. McCullagh, of the Ocean Ac- | cident and Guarantee Corporation, Ot{awa, and a representative of the Ontario Life Underwriters, express- ed very definitely the attitude of all business in Canada to-day, and said that they were actively behind any measures calculated to check the ravages of this dreaded disease. "Tuberculosis stands' in second place in the mortality figures of this country," said Mr. McCullagh," and cur companies are giving firancial isupport in every province to com- Lmittees and associations that are | \taking corporate action in the figh* {| tor legislation that will reduce the great losers as a resuit of failure to Lady Caramel that is dreamily de- licious. Crisp-toasted Peanuts. And a coating of the richest Milk Chocolate imaginable. Do you wonder why they go so fast ? Just say-- OH HENRY! THE HANDY-SWEET CROTHERS KINGSTON EST. 1869. provide adequate treatment for the jcare of tubercular patients and these {iosses are running up higher and thigher every year." Mr. McCullagi {sald that action had to come from the people in each municipality, and he predicted that if there could he a simultaneous movement all over On- tario the government could not af- ford to trifle but would be compell- ed to put through the necessayy leg- islation. Mr. McCullagh's remarks were {keenly appreciated by all of tha members present, and steps will ba | taken through him to have a simil- |ar committee formed in the city of |Ottawa. As soon as the permanent {committee is formed in Kingsten {following the meeting called for May | 4th, communications will be sent to {all of the outside municipaliti>s and |to the branch organizations, such as {the Canadian Red Cross, 1.0.D.E., {Knights of Columbus, Masonic Or- ders, I1.0.0.F., Canadian Clubs, {county councils, Rotary Clubs, Ki- A ---------- a --" With Our Magic Torch we can weld the heaviest and strong- | their {wanis Clubs, city councils, chambers {of commerce and boards 'of trade, {women's institutes, the U.

Lovers of baseball who desbre to see Kingston players get a chance to develop a strong team are pleaged cver the action of the city council in voting $500 toward the expenses | of the Kingston team of the Central | !Ontario league. This is regarded las a recognition of a duty to pro-| mote good healthy sport, and especi- ! jally a sport that appeals to tho great mass of the people, and the majority lol the people endurse the action of*| council. > { There are other considerations, | however, besides obtaining a public | |grant that would be carefully taken | {up by those who have the manage- {ment cf the teams forming this lea- | gue. The most important one is | jto tonvert baseball into a paying | ipropositicn. 'There is a lot to learn | |in Kingston before this will be ac- complished, but it is not an impos- {sibility if the sport is raised as it {ought to be and taken out of the | |ciass of public charities. | An experienced baseball man, ig tiscussing this matter with a repre- | (sentative of the Whig, said baseball | could be made to pay here, and the | i romising players would then get an | opportunity to develop their talents | and reach the big leagues just as (they do in the United States. | "But," said he, "you can never do | it while the citizens are.content te sed schoo! kids driven off the cricket | field that should be theirs, to make way for what is practically a free |saow that never yields more than enough to cover the railway expenses cf a visiting team ! "That is not playing ball. It is {enly an exhibition of a mean spirit, {for in addition to taking the cricket | field from' the little children who | icnly have the right to it, there are | many" people who will not even pnt | a nickle into #ie hat when it is pass- | ed around. How can you have base- | Iball or any other sport without pro- | per organization and management? | {You must get away from this thing. | {Leave the cricket field and the pub- | {I'c parks to childien._and make a | |good diamond at the fair grounds ! that will be a credit to the city, and will yield a revenue. This is the very | thing that the citizens of Kingston | want done for they have faith in the ability of Kingston boys, aud desire {ty see them stay in Kingeston rather {than go to Gther places." a -- mina Baseball Year--Every Boy Should Play Ball We have made it possible for every boy to have a Baseball Mitt, having purchased an enormous quantity of Mitts at a very low price.

Only by such a course can the On- tario legislature be persuaded to |take up the very serious problem of {the suppression of the dread di- |sease, tuberculosis, that is causiag {havoe in this province. There is lit- |e or nothing done for the protec- {tion of the people who are without money, and the disease is spread {among the very poor because they {cannot fight it. Mothers see their {children taken from thém or are {taken themselves, because the gov- iernment of this province has nevar {mode provision through municipal {taxation or otherwiic fr the pro- {per care of such patiears in a tuber- culosis hospital. Such econditiens cannot be permitted to exist !n an enlightened country, and the people of Kingston cannot afford to lag be- hind such provinces as Alberta and (Saskatchewan where every afflicted {person has the right to free treat- {ment in 'a tuberculosis sanatoria. "The members of the provisional comamittée are to be congratulated upon their great zeal," said the sup- erintendent of one of the largest in- surance companies in Kingston to- day, and he added, "My company will subscribe $100 if it is needed to push along this splendid work.
