He said that the society was keeping wards from nearly all the counties | in Eastern Ontario, for which they | were receiving remuneration. The secretary, in her report stated that the provincial nurse had report- ed that the children were in a very, healthy condition. The board of management had not seen its way clear to accept the offer of Queen's University to purchase their pro- perty.

DECORATED STORE WINDOWS. In Honor of Armistice Day---Three Fine Scenes. : Windows in Kelley's grocery store, Laidlaw's and Steacy's dry goods stores are beautifully decorat- ed for Armistice Day in mem- ory of the Canadians who fell fight- ing for their country. Kelley's grocery store window de- plets a soldiers' grave yard, showing the miniature graves, with poppies, strewn over them, and small white crosses. The back ground of the scene is black, throwing into relief a The scene is very pretty and realistic and the decorator has made the window f very noticeable. Laidlaw's window Is decorated l with flags, poppies, soldier helmets || and guns, and presents a very nice appearance. A model dressed as a nurse brings back to the soldiers and nurses, memories of "over there" il| and a number of pictures show battle front scenes. Steacy's window shows a soldier's f grave, with a large crods in the cen- tre and kneeling by it, a model dressed as a war widow. The scene brings back memories of the war and ( of the wives and sisters at home, who passed through years of fear || for those loved ones fighting for them. Poppies are strew over the I grave, and the window is very at- tractive. ' The decorators of each store lll nave made the windows very realis- ii tic and pretty and many favorable |. comments have been passed upon their appearance, California and Pacific Coast Tours.

To the Editor of The Whig: | There is likely to be much eri | ticism of the Archbishop of Canter- bury's statement that the clergy must burn more midnight oil, to draw large congregations, Men are not drawn to God by the silken swish of an academic gown, no matter how much the wearer knows. The wayfaring man may not err therein. On every hand we are told that'the churches are preaching themselves empty. We cannot fail to see that crime is rampant in our midst, yet the sale of Bibles is largely increas- ed, So there are still thousands of souls that have not bowed the knee to Baal. Then again, are all our clergy re- born? Because the blind cannot lead the blind. Do they walk as children of the light? Those who do, will certainly have followers. There is an irresistible magnetism in God's word, when the preacher him- self has found the truth. President Coolidge says, there is great need of true religion to stem the tide of | prevailing crime and lawlessness. | The good book tells us the dark| places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty. Can anys thing be more cruel than the crimes | that are taking place in our midst? Our preachers must try to rekindle the lights. It will never be accom- plished by man-made laws, for those | very laws are openly defied by those | who are supposed, and paid, to guard them. It is, asin the days of old-- selfishness. Man, by himself, is priced. For thirty pieces, Judas sold himself--not Christ. | We need in this age true men, | such as the Bishop of Exeter de- | scribed; aye, aye, and we need more | true, womanly women, and less | grinding of the terrible divorce! mill, making children worse than orphans, and breaking up homes, the purity of which should be the| strength of the nation. We need, | and greatly, too, more unity and less | sectarianism, some of which seems | as silly as the children's song, Don't Want To Play in Your Yard." --MARY A. NASH. Brooklyn, N.Y., Nov. 6. A Great Investment. To the Editor of The Whig: As a business man grows old en-| ough to take life seriously, the wise investment of time and money, and | energy is his guiding motive. To-day as never before, such an | opportunity is presented if he takes a share {n the $4,000,000.00 budget of the United Chutech of Canada, | with its guaranteed dividends of | one hundred per cent, of real joy | and happiness. | God has invested his all in the great task of bringing us from the jungle of hate, to the Paradise of loving each other.

A friend met a cheerful Irishman who had plainly suffered some hard | knocks. "Well, Pat, how are you getting along now?" he inquired. "Oh, Oi'm still dard up, but Ofi've a fine job in Honolules, and fare paid. Of sail to-morrow. "Sure, man, you'll never be able to work there. The temperature is a hundred in the shade." = Pat had endured too much care- fully to be discouraged. "Well," he replied, hopefully, ¥Oi'll not be working in the shade all th' toime."

STORE CLOSED MONDAY Clearing Sale of Fall Millinery Parisian Shop 822 BROCK STREET THE TOWN WATCHMAN A week ago, the Watchman asked it anyone knew why Barrie street was laid out in the shape of a bow. As the historical society perhaps does not know, the reason was this: In the early days of the settlement, the people feared attacks from the Indians and a stockade was built from the water's edge near River street in a semicircle to the shore of the harbor at-the present Macdonald Park. Inside, this stockade the in- habitants felt fairly safe from attack, and the old town of Kingston was built inside the bow. Without the help "of the United Farm Women's organizations, which took -a big part in .the election in 1921, the Progressive candidates last week had no chance. It was the farm women who elected the big Pro- gressive following in the House of Commons four years ago. This time those organizations were not func- tioning, and thus the sad result for the Progressives, ' Should there be revelling on the anniversary of Armistice day? It ' are bargain days in other lines of business--why not in the insurance business? The announcement of the provincial inspector may seem strange to many policyholders who were lately called upon to pay higher premiums to fraternal organizations. --- Potatoes are now selling as high as three dollars a bag in Kingston, owing to the shortage and exports. There are few homes, however, in which there is not a big waste in po-, tatoes; the garbage cans show this. In this shortage time people can get along with about half the quantity they usually buy and still have suf- ficent. They can use substitutes, just as we do sometimes when hard coal Is scarce. ¥ | The Family Market Basket Poultry of all kinds was very plen- | tiful on the Kingston market on Sat- urday- morning. Chickens, which were the best of their kind which had been seen on the market in years, sold for from $1.50 to $2 per pair. Barred rocks chickens, which weighed about eight to nine pounds to the pair, brought $2 per pair.' Turkeys were fairly numerous and; sold from 35 to 40 cents per pound® Ducks were $1 to $1.25 apiece. One toticeable thing was the very small | showing of geese. Strictly fresh eggs, which have not been very plentiful during the past week or ten days, were sold at 75 cents a dozen. It is claimed that the shortage of eggs this year is due to the fact that the farmers have ex- perienced considerable difficulty in the young birds owing to dis and also having the skunks and foxes. pound for hind qu ' for fronts.
