This would not apply to the league >lubs, as the $10 fee would include the affiliation fee. A communication was read from Mr. A. Thickett, the former secretary, axpressing his regrets at not being able to attend the meeting, but in- timated that he would do everything he could to assist the Association In its work. Another communication was read from the Oshawa Football Club asking permission to play with the T. and D. The decision that they be allowed to continue to play in the Toronto League, which was made at a previous meeting, met with the approval of those present, and the club will be notified to that ef- fect.

RECITAL AT BISHOP BETHUNE COLLEGE A very delightful hour was spent by the pupils of Bishop Bethune Col- lege and others on Saturday at the College, when a recital was given by Miss Howson of' Toronto: awd Mrs. Neale of Bowmanville, kindly arrang- ed for by Mr. McNally, of the Toronto Conservatory of Music. Miss How- rson is a pupil of Mr. McNally, and showed by her finished playing evi dence of careful teaching. Before each of her group of numbers Mr. McNally gave a short sketch of thu composer and the piece to be played, which made the interpretation most interesting and intelligible as played by Miss Howson. 11/11 ~ Mrs. Neale, of Bowmanville, charmed her audience with two groups of songs, and Mrs. Morrison's sympathetic accompaniment added --_-- ------ 5 SOCIAL and PERSONAL The Reformer invites the co-opera- tion of its readers in contributing ftems to this column.

ELECTRICAL PROGRESS By J. E. Middleton Since the first i Sect, incandescent lamp} i more than twenty tt) Lik i 3 Vag been made op the pi gina! idea. The ordinary individualhas perceived oni; {wo, namely, the use of a tungstes filament and the vse of mtrogen ga within the bulb. but the intern ediat: steps were many. Invention pro ceeds by degrees. but it proceeds particularly in that branch of Applicc Science relating to Electricity. Water-power was first" conyerted into eleciric energy in 1881 bul a horizontal turbine used under a large "head" of water was not in operation until 1895. Tbe first practical {rans- mission line in the world was estab- practical electri | lished by John R. Barber of George- his pager He conducted current for two The line was first used in 1888. Two years later Ferranti the inventor succeeded in transmitting power a distance of ten miles "'at the tremendous pressure of 10.000 volts." The Hydro-Electric System began operations in 1911 with main trans- mission lines conducting current at? tension of 110,000 volfs. Electrical engineering has .nade enormous advancement in recent yedrs, and with every new invention possibilities of still' greater progress appear. This fact was considered in devising the financial policy of the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario. Not only was a sinking fund required to meet maturing obli- gations of -the local or co-operative plant. but a Renewal charge of approx- imately 2} per cent. on capital was imposed on the current revenues. for the purpo:e of building up a Fund ual to the amoun! of the investment. Thus the municipalities were protected against the possibility of their plants sinking into comparative obsolescence during the debenture-period, by reason of revolutionary inventions. In addition, a liberal provision was made for maintenance--expenditure from current revenue. As a result the transforming stations and trans- mission lines have been kept level with changing and improved standards of practice. To-day the efficiency and physical condition of , the property under (he control of {he Commission is far better than it was in 1912 immediately after the initial construe- tion had been completed. As am instance, continuous maintenance work. has practically eliminated the danger of system interruptions by reason of electric storms. There was a time, when lights were going out. and 'mofiors were dying with almost every flash of lightning. Last year the Com- town in connection with mill. miles { missioners Report confained the fol- lowing "sentences with reference to the operation of the Niagara System: "The period during which lightning disturbances were reported from our different high-tensionstations extended from March 16th to October 24th, and totalled 43 storms in all, three of which were general, passing over the entire system. The apparatus installed to relieve the system of excessive surges set up due io lightning disturbances proved most effective, in that no system interruplien occurred from this cause."

The deceased was born in Brooklin, and lived in Oshawa on"two different occasions. He first worked in the old South Oshawa tannery about 50 years ago for Robson & Lauchland for a few years. He then went to Lindsay and entered the tannery business with his brother, Thomas, the partnership existing for a number of years. He moved back to Oshawa and worked in the Robson tannery for a few years, later moving to Newmarket, where he resided for the' past 15 or 16 years. The deceased was a brother of the late James Robson of Oshawa and is survived by his wife and four chil- dren. The latter are: Mrs. 0. P. Hamilton, Newmarket; Mrs. Norman Crone, Sharen; one son attending the Brandon Agricultural College. In religion deceased was a Methodist and in politics a Liberal. Interment takes place in Newmarket.
