George Henry, minister of public highways, { and asked that the entire cost of | construction and maintenance of the | provincial highways be borne by the | government. Although the reeves | who made the trip to Toronto are | not saying very much, it is under- stood that they consider that they did not get very much satisfaction. | In plain words, the premier and the | minister of highways informéd the | deputation, which represented twen- ty-eight counties of the province, | that the government would not con- | sider the suggestion. The deputa- | tion claimed that it was great in- | Justice for the counties to have to pay twenty per cent. of the cost of | construction, but the powers-that-be | in Toronto could not see it that way. At almost every session of the { Frontenac County Council the ques- tion of the cost of the provincial | highways was considered and it was | thought that the Ontario government | would do something, but now the matter is just where it was a couple | of years ago. At the present time | the county council has a bill for | about $122,000, which has not been | paid to the Ontario government. | What action the council will take | no person seems to know, but one thing is certain--if this amount has { to be met, it will mean that resi- dents of Frontenac will have to pay more taxes. ! The reeves from the back town- ship have always made the claim that the provincial highway, which was built at such a cest, was of no benefit to them and for that reason they should not have to pay any of the cost. It will be remembered that when the reeves of back town- ships presented their case to a com- mission which sat in Kingston it was decided that they would not | have to pay for oné&'year, but the bill | which is. now outstanding is for { work dome since that time. In past years there have been {| three sessions of county council but the members of council thought that if there were four sessions fit | wollld mean a saving in modey, be- cause the committees could meet during the time that the county councillors were in the city and so save the expense of making special trips for committee meetings. There [ will be considerable other business, | besides the highway question, to be | considered by the council next week. LOCAL NEWS. drief Items of Jaterest Picked Up by the Whig Re- . porters.

A Notable Remember the niversary Ser- vices and the Anniversary Supper in Queen street Methodist church on Sunday, 16th, and Mbnday,/17th, with Rev. Principal Smyth, a | LL.D., as special preacher and . speaker, : i 1 BISHOP FARTHING'S "MISSION OF HELP" | Concluded at St. George's gn thedral--The Congrega= tions Large Nightly. On Wednesday evening, the Dean | of Ontario thanked the Bishop of Montreal for his kindness in ccming i to. preach a "Mission of Help" in the | cathedral, saying that the large congregation present was evidence | that his addresses had been of real ! help, not only 'to the members. of | St. George's parish, but to many of | Kingston's citizens.' Before begin- | ning his sermon, Bishop Farthing said that he had considered {it a | kindnéss on the part of the dean to invite him and that the four days spent in his old parish had been happy ones, the happier if he had been,of use to any one. It had been a | wrench to leave St. George's and | Kingston, and it was always a pleas | ure to come back. | "The power of God" was the sub | ject of the last sermon of the mis- sion and very beautifully the mis- sioner dwelt on the power of "The Holy Ghost, the Comforter" to lead | us into all truth. During the missfor | he had sought to show God the Fa- | ther creating man out of the dust of | the eartlf, breathing into him the' divine life by which he could have fellowship with God, God the Son coming down to live in a human body, dying on the cross In that body, rising from the dead and ascending | in the same body to His throne in Heaven. But before he ascended he d his disciples not to depart from Jerusalem until they had been bay tized with the Holy Ghost, who as He had promised them, would bring all things to their remembrance which He had told them. The gift ot the Holy Ghost was the completion of God's plan for man. Through 1 he goes forth not in his own strength but in the power of God. We _receiv- ed the gift in baptisin and those os the Church of England come for an added strength as they go out into] the world, at confirmation. The | priest is not set apart because he has | passed examinations, necessary as! these are. The hands of the Bishop and clergy are laid on his head and | the words "Receive ye the Holy | Ghost for the office and work of & priest in the church of God," are| said; and so the bishop when he takes the tremendous responsibility of his office comes in the way ap pointed for the gift of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is in us, St. Paul says: "Know ye not that your | bodies are the temple of the Holy | Ghost?" It is through this "power | of God" the third person of the Trinity, that we can attain to "the fellowship with the divine life for | which we were destined." | At the conclusion of the sermon. | the great congregation sang, kneel- | ing. "Come Holy Ghost our Souls | Inspire." CUEEN'S WILL EUILD A NEW HARTY ARENA, Next to the Richardson Sta-! dium--Artificial Ice Plant | to Be Included. Qleen's Athletic Board of Control has dgcided that a new arena will be built to replace the Jock Harty arena which was recently destroyea | by fire. A meeting of the finanee | committee has been held and the! question of building a rink was con- | sidered and it was decided that a arena would be build this coming. spring and summer. It is almost certain that the new rink will be built on Union stree. next to the George Richardson mem. orial statium. If the rink was built on.that location it would mean that the insurance rates would not be] nearly as heavy and there would be! no fear in case of the surrounding | buildings taking fire. The ice surface of the new rina will be the same as the old one, bu. it is understood that the seating ca- pacity will not be quite as large but will be sufficient to accommodates all the hockey fans who wish to at- tend the games. It is very likely that when the new rink is being built an artifical ice plant will be installed. Ever since the Harty arena was construct- ed, the Queen's authorities have realized that if there was an artificial fce plant it would mean there would be 'more revenue from skating and the hockey season could be extend- ed six weeks longer. The Queen's authorities will have the plans and specifications drawn ur in"the very near future =o the building can be undertaken during the spring and summer months. It is desirable that the new rink be ready br the first of November at the lat- est. He who blows In Ge dust fills his own eyes. ' --- DAILY MEMORANDUM. LT.B.
