RT | ston club put it over Brockville, and Held There Members of the Kingston Rotary Club, 'to the 'numberof twenty-five, were the guests of the Brockville Ro- tary Club, at a dinner held in the Grand. Central Hotel, at Brockville, on Monday evening, and the local -Rotar< ians were: sgyally entertained. The Kingston Rotarians made the trip to Brockville in cars, leaving their head- quarters at the British-American hotel at 4 o'clock, In the recent attendance contest held in this Rotary. district, the King- the complimentary dinner was tender- ed to mark the splendid showing made by the local club. Dinner was served at 6.30 o'clock, and the two clubs spent a very enjoyable time. H. A. Stewart, 'K.C., M.P., of Brockville, was the speaker of the evening, and he delivered a forceful address under the title ot "Essential Elements of Well Regulated L fe" a most timely topic for a Rotarian gathering. A splendid dinner, with the best of service, marked the event. No Rotary gathering is O.K: without the usual "sing-song," and a number of Rotary songs were pit over with great "pep" during the evening. * Rotarian Bert Craig, of Brockville, very ably acted as song leader, while Rotarian James Makepeace, of Brockville, and Rotar- ian Percy Hall, of Kingston, provided the music at the piano. In the absence of the president, Stuart Allister, who was out of the city on business, the chair was occupied by the vice-president of the Brockville Club, Fred 1. Rifchie, and he carried out his duties with honors, There was not a dull moment from start to finish, and the Kingston Rotarians returned home singing the praises of their bro- ther members in Brockville. Good fel- lowship prevailed, and the event was voted a great success by all present. The Brockville club had a good surn- out of members to welcome ti#f€ visi- tors. Given Warm Welcome. Rotarian Etuest J. Smith, of Brock- ville, said grace an afidk auipie justice had been done to the very fine spread, 'Rotarian Ritchie 'started things going in great style. Several songs were ren- dered, including a special number for the occasion entitled "How Do You Do," which went over big. In this live- bok song the Kingston Rotarians were referred to as the "Kings-onions" and if we might be permitted to say so, it went over strong. Andy Gump, Farmer Brown, Mister Rooster and the Misses Hen, were also featured in the song, which made a great hit, Rotarian Ritchie extended a warm welcome to the Kingston visitors and also took occasion to congratulate the attendance competition, and in a jocu- lar way asked to be tipped off as to how the Kingston club had managed to put over so many hundred per cent meetings on the attendance sheet, Ro- tarian Ritchie stated that such gather- ings. tended to promote good feeling among the members and above all, would make the members better Ro- tarians. President Arthur Lyster, of the Kingston Rotary Club, was called up- on, and as he arose to speak was greet- ed with the song, "See Him Smiling," President Lyster returned the thanks of the local Rotarians for the warm welcome and splendid entertainment. Three cheers and a "Tiger" were given for the Kingston club, after which H. A. Stewart, K.C;, M.P,, was called up- on for an address. A Timely Address. 'In opening his address, Mr. Stewart stated that he had attended several tary dinners, and he appreciated the will and fellowship in Rotary. He took as the subject of his discourse. "Essential Elements of Well Regulat- ed Life." He realized that he had a big subject and he desired to pick out four essentials--Work, play, love, wor- ship. All these in proper proportion and order, were essential to the well- developed life. This was a working life, the speaker pointing out that ev- rked from the ants to the and without it things do not go right. Sincere love and affection for one's race aid country also played a big part. 7 "And as regards' worship, all men worship something in some way. And iv is just as essential as any other ele- ment, We need to acknowlédge our sin. We need to. confess sin. It acts just the same as sleep to the body. It will tcleanse and purify, What foppor- | tunities we have to exercise! How many opportunities for work and play! We ate living in a wonderful time. "As members of Rotary you have undertaken a certain line of work -- work that is very valuable and much- needed at this time, and I wish you the fullest measure of success in your vrderaling," remarked Mr. Stewart, in the closing remarks of his address, which was greeted with round after reugd ot 2pplause. ~~ Rothcjan Ritchie expressed the thanks of the yathcring to Mr. Stewart for nis address and the very happy event was Liought to a close with the singing otf the Naiicral Anthem. THE CAPITOL THEATRE THRONGED MONDAY Splendid Picture Films Shown --Cameron Geddes, the Canadian Basso, 8ang. The Capitol Theatre had another "sold out" night on Monday and the programme presented was certainly worthy of it. Attracted by the splen- did bill advertised, hundreds crowded the entrances long before the starting time, and when the lights did go off the big auditorium was well filled and a steady stream coming through ¢the lobby. 'Interesting Canadian news views, "The Fun Shop," "Mother Hubbard," a "Telephone Girl" comedy, all prece- ded the main programme. Cameron Geddes, famous Canadian basso, made his first appearance. For his first song the audience remained quiet, passing judgment, and then as it finished there was a burst of ap- plause that lasted for some minutes. Fhe second song was lighter, speedier and enlivened the audience, although it did not give the full play to Mr. Geddes' wonderful voice. In response to a five-minute applause and repeat- ed demands for an encore Mr. Geddes presented a little novelty dealing with a cuckoo clock, It was certainly good. The feature picture was that herald- ed production "Merton of the Movies" with Glenn Hunter taking the part of Merton. We cannot give this picture enough praise--it gives comedy of the cleanest and. brightest degree, pathos which leaves on wondering whether to laugh or mourn, a. which has a great many unexpected turns and splendid acting throughout. It is a mo- vie of the movies, showing the serious and the comic side of life "on the lot" and giving a more natural presentation of the life of those who make the films Fthan any picture produced heretofore. The same programme will be re- peated' today and Wednesday. Don't | miss hearing Cameron Geddes. a -------- LATE MRS. E. MONTGOMERY. The Funeral Took Place on Monday Afternoon.
