Clarke, of Wellington, Pringe Edward county, writes to the Whig that he read with great pleasure a short sketch of Mr. George Fralick, which along with his picture appear- ed in the Whig a few weeks ago, and adds: "1 wish to congratulate my old and estéemed friend upon the hale and hearty boyish looks which he still retains for a man of eighty years.

Mr. Ligklater being one of its honor- ary members. At the conclusion of Mr. Sines address the whole assemblage sang the song composed; by Mr. Sine, "Linklater Day," to the tune of "There's a Long, Long Trail." Rev. Father Hanley spoke on behalf of the separate school 'board and then Mr. Linklater spoke to his 'boys and girls." It was a nard task for him and though he had ever taught all his pupils that there was no such word as "CAN'T" he realized yes- terday he said -that he had found there was when he attempted to ex- press his feelings in regard to Link- later Day. The banquet at the Lyceum by the ILO.D.E. and Canadian Club was very largely attended as was also the concert in the Delaney Theatre. It was a big day for a big man. . The Canadian Club entertained the Hon. Charles McCrea at luncheon at the Gananoque Inn yesterday, Kingston Rotarians. To-day is "Children's Day" and will prove one of the very best fea~ tures of the week. The evening's pro- 'gramme will draw many from King- ston and other places in this vicinity and will be well worth the trip. On Friday might the Ratary Club of Kingston will honor the town with their presemce. R. J. Bushell, who was in town on Monday for the day, waxed eloquent on 'the whole day's proceedings, and was particularly en- thusiastic about the parade in the evening. As there is to be a big dress parade on Friday might also, with a street dance, no doubt this feature will attract many Kingston- fans and others from out-of-town. Citizens remember with pleasure the visit of the Kingston Rotarians on a similar occasion and how much thelr presence added to the even- ing's entertainment. Their vieit is looked forward to with enjoyable an- ticipation. Dr. F, J. O'Connor, Mrs. O'Con- nor and family were down from Kingston Monday night for the par- ade, and Dr. O'Connor eplied to Mayor Wilson's address of wel- come. Dr, O'Connor is one of Gana- noque's" former mayors, having filled that office at differemt periods amd goes down in history as one of the best mayors that town has ever known. As he and Mayor Wilson are warm friends it seemed very fitling in every way that he sfiould respond to the address of welcome on this occasion. Mr. and Mrs. Arch Heaslip, To- ronto, are in town for Old Home Week festivities. Arch is one of the Linklater pupils who chme down to do honor to that day. Misses Marion Keenan, Margaret Wilby, Kathleen Gorman and Lil- Man , Brooklyn, N.Y,, are among the latest arrivals at Tremont Lodge. Misses Alice Gratton and Isobel Dugan' have returned to Ottawa _af- ter spending the past two weeks here or the river. Miss Zita Pilon, who has been the guest of Mics Dot Heffernan for the week-end returned to Kingston yes- terday, Dr. C. E. O'Connor, N. O'Connor, Misses K. and A. O'Connor and Miss Martin, were among the Kingston- #ans who motored down for Monday evening's parade. Miss Lillian Bedand, Schemectady, and her sister Mrs. H. O. Oraven, New York City, are among the Link- later pupils here for the reumion. Harry Donald, Oshawa, has return- ed to Oshawa after spending a two weeks holiday at "Tremont Lodge." | OBITUARY | The Late Elmar MacArthur.
