Frost decided to swim ashore from a pier in the middle of the river, instead of walking back over the bridge. Pedestrians Organizing Ottawa, -- The Pedestrians' Rights Association is the latest organization contemplated for the protection of pedestrians on the highway and in the public streets.

SEED IMPORTS DECLINE Some rather surprising figures as to the decline in the volume of imported seeds during the present season are supplied by the latest issue of the official re- port compiled by the Dominion Seed Branch, These figures pro- vide a very interesting indication of the striking change in nroduc- tion trend which is taking place in the seed industry in Canada.

Ald. Jackson--"We are carry- ing on, saving money, and these people come to us and make a suggestion. They have no funds so far as I can see. The time for these suggestions was whan the welfare organization had funds, not now." Move to Defer Action Ald, Morris--*I am ready Lo move that action be left in abey- ance until after the annual mee!- ing of the Associated Welfare So- ciety." Ald. Hyman--*If I may offer a suggestion, as chairman, 1 think we should write to the wel- fare organization setting forth our views on the contentious clauses of these recommenda- tions. We should ask, for ir- stance, for definite advice in writing, as to whether they ara ready to throw their funds into the pot; whether they plan fo continue social service work; and request. other information whizhL should be definitely outlined." Ald Bunker--*"I agree. The welfare organization is entitlad to know just what this council requires before we can take ac- tion." Ald. Boddy seconded the me- tion of Ald. Morris that the mat- ter be left in abeyance. Changes Opinion "I want to be candid," said the chairman of the Finance Com- mittee. 'lI am not now prepared to support these recommenda- tions. Some of them were teu- tatively approved by this council last. week it necessary 1 wi' 'renage' owing to the informa- tion we now have regarding fi- nances. "Unti] we have some definite statement of policy from the wel- | fare organization I do not think we should go any further." Ald. Bunker, with the whole touncil assenting, "I do not think we should create an atmosphere of distrust I am sure that un member of this council wonld like such an impression to get abroad We all appre-iate the work that has been done by the Citizens" Advisory Relief Coni- mittee and the splendid way in which the Associated Welfare 5n. cieties have heen carrying on." To Write Letter At this point the motion of Ald. Morris and Ald. Boddy was put to council in committee anc carried unanimously Ald. Hyman, from the "and what about writing to welfare organization What about a small committee to araft the letter What do we want to know?" Ald.

It was bequeathed to the Tate Gallery, together with the unfinished portrait of Miss A. M. Alexander, by the late W, C. Alexander, with life interest to his daughters, and in the case of Miss A, M. Alexander this inter- est was relinquished some time ago, but the other daughter, Mrs. Bernard Spring-Rice, retained hers until her death recently. Both pictures were exhibited at the Tate during the Whistler loan exhibition of 1912. The new Whistler was painted a year after the famous 'Por- trait of the Painter's Mother" and at the same time as the por- trait of Carlyle. These pictures mark the greatest period of his work in portraiture, and immedi- ately preceded the series of Thames night pieces, in which the influence of the Japanese painter Hiroshige is so marked. The portrait of Miss Cicely Alex- ander is perhaps the greatest of the whistler portraits, and it pos- sosges an appeal which is not to be found in his other portraits. James Laver has crystallized the effect of the painting in a sen- tence which cbuld not be better ed: "The whole painting is a mir- acle of lightness, and the little girl herself is like some delicate white moth poised for an instant with faintly fluttering wings." Whistler's characteristic butipr- fly signature is painted above a grey coat on the chair to the left side of the picture. The circumstances of its paint- ing are not without a touch of cial service work." Ald. Boddy--"We should ask what they are going to do about funds." Ald. Hyman--"There are some suggestions This letter is 'go- ing to be a difficult matter." Committee Named Bunker moved that a small committee be appointed to draft the suggested communica- tion, and that the draft be sub- mitted to the council in commit- tee, council in committee being given power to act." The motion was tha committee rose progress With the Mayor in the chair, and council again in formal ses- sion, Ald. Hyman reported pre- gress, both the resolutions pass- ed in committee being formally approved The committees charged with drawing up a letter to the relief organization wag named by the Mayor as follows--Aldermen Hy- man, Boddy and Bunker, with tne City Clerk ex officio. | Ald | carried and to repor* Tate Gallery Gets Noted Painting by Whistler comedy. In the early 70's Whist- ler was painting the rather som- bre portrait of Mrs. Leyland, and he was to paint the whole Alex- ander family, including the elder Miss Alexander, whose unfinished portrait hangs at Millbank. Sud- denly he appears to have felt a longing for a "light arrange- ment," and much against her will little Cicely Alexander was handed over to his devices. Nothing in the world seemed to her quite so tedious as to be painted. Tears of vexation and wearl- ness poured down her cheeks while she had to endure the 70 sittings which Whistler required for his 'harmony in grey and green," and the painter was com- pletely oblivious to her suffer- ings. Whistler took infinite pains with this portrait, and it is parti- cularly interesting as it marks definitely the beginning of his pre-occupation' with elegance. He took complete control of fhe unfortunate Cicely. He chose the muslin for her dress, and had very stroug views as to its cut and general effect. He even went so far as to supervise its wash- ing, and finally he presented Tin- nie Greaves, the sister of Walter and Harry, to make a mat of black and white tape for Cicely to stand upon. It is small wonder that the little girl in the muslin dress disliked the imposition of having her portrait painted.

Boddy submit a verbal report regarding the proceedings of the Finance Committee. Report on Conference Ald. Boddy reported the details of the conference between his committee and representatives of the Associated Welfare Societies and the Citizens' Advisory Relief Committee. 'The welfare or- ganization, through its president, Mr. Storie, expressed itself as willing to agree to one central organization. The society was fully in accord with the idea that only one organization should handle relief", said Ald, Boddy. "When it came down to dis- cussing funds, however, I gain- ed the impression from Mr. Storie that the welfare organization would retain what money it has to its credit in order to carry on social service work. Mr. Storie was not prepared to make any Aetinite statement as to whether the welfare organization would hand over any funds to the pro- posed central organization. Welfare Society Attitude } "I. am of the opinion that while the Welfare Society is ready and willing tn give up all relief work they will retain any funds they may have and use the money as a nuc- leus for operation as a purely so- cial service organization. If this is correct then the formation of a cen- tral organization would not do away with any one set of officials as the welfare organization will retain a director of social service and other helpers." said Ald. Boddy. Ald, Bunker--"My understanding was that the Associated Welfare Society would retain the services of two social service workers in order to carry on work that is most necessary but outside of regular re- lief." Ald. Morris Surprised Ald. Morris,--"I am surprised to learn that the welfare organization wants to carry on atter we have been told so many times that they were willing to join hands with us. Personally I cannot see the differ- ence between relief and social ser- vice work, that may be my misfor- tune, "I take very grave exception to any body of men coming to us from the outside, with nothing in their hands, to take up the reins from this elected body. If they had a fund of say $25.000 then I would say go to it by all means but they have nothing to offer but theif good will, their money is gone or will be retained, ' ; mpliments Committee "I want to congratulate th- com- mittee of this council who have been administering relief so success- fully durin the past few weeks. As vou all 'know I was nbt very favorably disposed towards the re- lief depot and the new system but I must admit at the present time I am wavering in my position very much. So far I will admit the sys- tem appears to have been a success. "Now we have these men from outside, we do not even krow who they will be yet, who want to as- sume full control. 1 am very posi- tively opposed to any such step. Until we know what the cost will be, whether any worth while saving will be affected, who will administer affairs, and other details, --where the funds are to come from for one, then I am not not going tgp ask any man to come in off the street and do the work this council was elected to perform," said the Dean of council. Favor One Organization Ald. Clarke, ~"We are all in fav- our of one organization, but if the welfare organization is going to carry on we will still have two or- ganizations. We cannot get out of this work and turn it over tos some other organization just because we find we are facing a difficult task. "If the Associated Welfare So- ciety is not going to handle direct relief in the future then it appears to me that we will automatically be in a. position where we have one organization, and only one, handl- ing relief. There will be just the one committee left, the committee of this council. Until this other organization is in possession of funds I think we should move very carefully," said Ald. Clarke. Ald. Morris --~""Are we going to consider the establishment of a General Emergency Relief Commit- tee? If not then it is no use for us to discuss these recommenda- tions anv further." Mayor Hawkes' Views Mayor Hawkes, speaking as a member of the committee of the whole: --'The Associated Wel- fare Society is said to plan to carry on. That is not go. I know that, The call has already gone out for the annual meeting on June 28. Some of the members think the society should carry on the social service end of the work, work for which the society was primarily organized, Fsr myself I do not agree and there are other members of the same opinion as I am, The city is at present paying the salaries of six nurses and we have a social ser- vice worker who 1s also a trainc! nurse in the city's employ. 1 cannot see for myself why it should be necessary for the wei- fare organization to carry on any social service work at the present time. " "The welfare organization is agreed, however, that there should be only one source of re- lief, and I think every member of this council is agreea that there should be only one organi- zation," ] The Mayor also went on to congraulate the committees of council charged with the admiu- istration of relief "on its splen- did, arduous and successful work." The Financial Question In closing Mayor Hawkes stat- ed, "Now in regard to raising money.
