At the grove, which is a beautiful spot for 4 pienic, all enjoyed the outing. There were about fifty pienickers, Who spent the afternoon boating, fish. ing or playing softball. There were fruit and ice cream cones for the children, and scrambles for peanuts and kisses! The picnie supper was served at the tables and all did jus- 'tice to the meal. In the evening, there was dancing, for which 'a Vietrola had been brought along. The return trip was made about ten o'clock, the end of a . The , due Association, when asked if the Pro-| Chamber of Commerce, held in Belle- Falls, told of the highly unsatisfac-| tory position of his town in regard to power. Smith's Falls, Perth, Carleton Place and Kemptville had been induced to enter into a joint arrangement to take power from the Hydro-Electric Power ommission from a dévelopment at High Falls on the Mississippi river. The power costs, which at first were reason- able enough, had gradually been ad- vanced until in June they received notice that the charge would be $50 per horsepower per annum. The ville, Dr. Anderson, mayor of Smith's | } neighboring town of Carleton Place was even worse off, for théir power was advanced in price in the last five years from $33 per horsepowér to $55. Up to 1919 Carleton Place was procuring power at $20 per horsepower from private interests. The effect on industry was almost disastrous. The Frost & Wood Com- pany, Smith's Falls, as a matter of self-preservation, sought relief by going back to steam power and later acquired a power plant of its own. Other important users are being out and the result is higher prices for those who remain. In other towns, not dependent on Hydro-| Electric, in the near neighborhood, power was being sold at $15 to $25. 'How can we compete in the attrac- tion of new industries when the odds | are so great ?' 'asked Dr. Anderson. LATE COL. GEORGE ROY. A Former Kingston Officer Dies in Quebec City. former director of artillery at Otta- wa, and acting commanding officer of the Quebec Military District, died suddenly here Tuesday night.
