NEW UNION JACK FOR KINGSTON BOY SCOUTS Interesting Ceremonies Meeting Held on Monday Night. The First Kingston Troop of Boy Scouts had their regular weekly meeting Monday night in the market | 'butldtig. The boys were surprised to See a new Union Jack on the pole, ready for the ceremony of "breaking the colors." As soon as the qere- mony was concluded, and the meet- ing opened, the troop had a short run to. the "swimmin' hole" (in mimic). For fun, you should have seen the illustrations. of the Scout Laws given by the four patrols. The Beavers came out on the lucky end of the game, their "friend to ani- mals" stunt, being voted the best. Did you ever see a Charict Race? No? Then you should have seen the one the Scouts had Monday night. It at ii] had all the thrills of the real thing, iif and showed that the Scouts were willing to do almost anything fo gain a point for their patrol. The Wolves won the race by one point. The 8. M. gave a talk on the hand- ling and breaking of the flag. The 'marks for the night were as fol Beavers, 110; Eagles, 109; We'll close, don't you think? see fi! how it comes down next week.

The manifesto says: A unique necessity is upon us to vindicate temperance laws as the| most constructive of all legislation passed during two generations by provincial legislatures and Parlia-| thent; and to prove afresh to the people of Canada that the trade in intoxicating liquors has been and is the most corrupting thing in our so- cial and political life. The revela- tions at Ottawa, which threaten to overthrow the Government prove that the arch-offender "against. na- tional decency is the reign of alcohol in certain sections of the community. Clearly, the nation's political life cannot be stable or progressive until whatever Government is in office is compelled by public opinion to ele- vate the administration of our social- ly protective laws. This isn ry, whatever party may win the election: for the brazen violation of the laws against smuggling is not chargeable only to the most Tecent regime. Re- covery of patriotic tone in the na- tional services is mot possible mere- ly through the rivalries ©f political | parties, whose first interest is office. The 'expression of public opinion sistible; and it requires the gonstruc- | tive co-operation of all the decent | elements in every community. We, therefore, urge upon all men and women who care for social pro- gress and national honor to evoke in their own localities insistent demand that the parties which appeal for sup. port in any Dominion election will officially pledge themselves to a rigid administration of all Customs laws; particularly as to intoxicating liquor, and to the passing and unqualified observance of new laws that will make it a criminal offence to facili- tate in any way the illegal sale of in- toxicating liquor in any province, or of trade in it against the laws of a friendly country. The spectacle of Canadian govern- mental authority conniving at whole- sale law-breaking, during the period of Canada's advent to international rank, has been particularly disgrace- ful. No ome political party is entirely responsible for it. The admission that distilleries have contriouted to both party funds is painfully appar- ent. No party, through electioneer- d to present this matter to the people with the disinterested moral force the situation needs. That must be dome through non-partisan agencies, and 'this appeal is made to all men and women within and with- out temperance organizations to be- come active in the interests of patrio- tio Canadianism.
