Probably not, but other experiments have shown that typhoid germs will not long survive in a cake of ice. This information was once given to the Kingston Board of -Health when the question of germy water was being discussed. 2 This talk of reducing the num- ber of Kingston aldermen and of eivic government by commission is only the revival of A campaign carried on here several times, from 1905 to 1916. The late Robert Meek, then chief editorial writer of The British Whig, was a great admirer of com- mission government in a city. A reduction in the number of alder- men was strongly advocated by him in this newspaper, and much discus- sion resulted. But the ratepayers | were not_very much enthused, pre- ferring to stick to the old system of {delegating to a mayor and twenty- one aldermen the directing of the city's affairs. The Watchman recalls the strong alivocacy by The Whig of {'a change in our 'municipal system of i Bovernment. It would be very easy jinow to get the voice of the people on the matter. Perhaps they would vote for a council of eight--a mayor and seven aldermen. Who knows ? The well-versed old military ofi- cer will always say "uniform" when referring to military clothing, whether it be for one man or a He will not say "uniforms." Two little fellows were caught ) | helping themselves to flowers in a fi city garden the other day. When {| asked why they were robbing the garden they replied: "We want flowers to take to school for our teacher." The owner gave them Some, and a little advice not to steal, for teacher would not like to have -her flower supply by that method. Talking about teachers--this is a very trying time for those who in- struct the young in the schools, for the kids are feeling very frisky as the last week of schooling arrives. It is difficult to keep the young mind Interested when the call from the open is persistent. The little ones want to run wild after their long season of reading, writing and 'rith- metic--and the teachers are not sorry that vacation time is at hand. The next big passenger steamboat that the Canadian Steamship Lines builds should be called the "Cover- dale," alter the president of the company, Mr. W. H. Coverdale, the eminent Canadian financial world man, who was born in Kingston and whose forebears lived here long 480. Mr. Coverdale is one of Can- ada's most brilliant sons, who has large interests in New York, but who loves his native land and lves in it most of his time. Let us have a steamer Coverdale, and when Kings. ton bas a new street worthy of the name, let it also be called "Cover- dale." . The surviving members of the original graduating class of the Royal Military College, who will be present at the jubilee celebration of Monday, will recall pleasant mem- ories, ' The surroundings at Point Frederick will seem much the same to them, for the old fortificatisits still stand ag they did fifty years ago. They will miss the old wooden bridge that connected the Pittsburgh and Kingston shores, over which walked to come to town. Coal foil lamps lighted the way at night, while Kingston's streets were light« buildings are practically the same, and the lines of the business streets are unthanged, and they will recog- nize many of the qld buildings. It is a long way back to 1876, but there are quite a number of Kings- ton folk who will recall the gentle- men cadets of the military college as they appeared at that time. Those graduates of 1580 who survive are all past sixty-five, and some of them have reached three score znd ten years. Kingston welcomes back these military college veterans, and wishes them a pleasant visit to the old scenes. BOOKS THE MISSIONARY IDEA IN LIFE AND RELIGION. By J. F.

Edited by Muriel Miller Humphrey. Small Maynard & Co. Phice $2.00. In reading the latest collection of od by gas in their time. The eity|® love stories gathered together from many magazines, one is tempted to mpare it with the 1924 edition, d the comparison is bound to be favorable. There do not appear to be quite as many love stories, in the general acceptance of the term, but love in its broader, grander sense permeates many of them. Two stories stand out, namely "The Minister," and "A Flery Sweetness in the Afr." The former deals with a minister who has grown old in the service of 4 little church in a rural section and who feels that he has come to the end of the way. The love that is latent in many hearts for those whe h&ve served them was aroused by a hard-working farm woman and the preacher's heart filled with glad- Hess. "A Fiery Sweetness" deals with a young irl who Had come out from England through some matri- monial agency to marry a farmer in the backwoods of Louisiana. It fs different from most love stories and makes perhaps a little too much of a hero out of the farmer, but on the whole it i& quite human. For those who enjoy a real love story, of the triangular variety "The Bride- groom" offers a real thrill. The end- ing is rather unsatisfactory as . it leaves one rather in the dark, as to what really happened, but we imagine most people will cheer for Marcia. There is something herolc about & woman who enters a man's Toom at 1 o'clock on the morning of her wedding, and finding him pack- ing, sits down and reminds him of "days and nights of long | ago." She deserves to win out. Everyone 'Who enjoys good short stories should get this latest volume. There are twenty rattling good storles évéry- one of which is intensely interesting.
