Nearly a dozen churches were represented by good: sized parties, between two and three hundred being present. Following "the banquet, during which seemingly unlimited quantiâ€" ties of cake and pie were consumed a number‘ of brief addresses were made. Hugh Rogers, mayor of the Boys'x Council for the Twin City was the first speaker called upon. His manâ€" | ner of proposing a toast to "Our Dads" was a happy one and in his short address there was given amâ€" ple reason to the older members of the gathering as to why Rogers had | pttained such popularity among the Tuxis boys. The response to the toast was made by L. J. Breithaupt, who spoke of the Y.M.C.A. and what it means in the upbuilding of a boys‘ life. The toast to "Our Lads" was proâ€" posed by Rev. J. P. Hauch. His talk ‘dealt with boys of three classes or days as he had known them, startâ€" ing off with the companions of his ‘own youth, then with a somewhat younger class and finally with the class occupied by his own sons. The response to the toast was made by ene of these sons, Carl Hauch, who delivered an able address in which a high tribute was paid to the Dads of Kitchener and Waterloo makipg the new Y.M.C.A. possible. The toast to "The Ladies" was handled in acceptable manner by A. K. Cressman of Waterloo and responded to by Mrs. Augustine, asâ€" sisted by L. J. Breithaupt, her elder brother. At the compietion of the toast list Wm. Gooke of Toronto, Natlonul' Council Eoys‘ Work Secretary for Ontario and Quebec, was called upon k to speak. "Bill" Cooke has been| beard here before and is always as-] sured of a good hearing from local boys. His free and easy manner.‘ and good humor, while at the same time giving some worthâ€"while truths fit him admirably to address a gaâ€" thering of boys and young men and his remarks last evening were 111-1 tened to with particular interest. He spoke on the development of a boy‘s life, giving as the dad‘s three functions in this development, "breeding, feeding and leading," pointing out the various . qualities that went to make up each of these tireée parts of the boy‘s life. A. R. Kaufman, chairman of the kathering made a brief address in introducing the programme of the evening while Boys‘ Work Secretary i. A. Samson led the boys in a numâ€" jer of choruses which were sung with a vim, Harry Law presiding at the piano. remainder of the money will be sed at a musicale which the tes intend to give shortly.; Another feature of the evening was the presentation of the two Tuxis hockey cups. The handsome trophy for the Senior Tuxis cham;{lonship was presented by J. J. MacCallum and accepted on behalf of the Trinâ€" ity Keystones by H. Massel, captain of the class team.

Boecker Makes Promise at Special Meeting Held in City Hall on Tuesday Afternoon â€"Estimates Cost of Work. GRAND TRUNK WILL MAKE COMPLETE SURVEY OF ALL LEVEL CROSSINGS N CITY Would Cost $2,000,000. ' "It would cost easily $2,000,000 to put subways in and make adjustâ€" ments as industries would be hit by the necessity of raising tracks on sidings," pointed out Mr. T. G. Roecker, general superintendent of Ontario lines of the Grand Trunk Railway, in discussing the question. Mr. Boecker would not make any reâ€" commendations one way or the other, but warned the Council that a very heavy expense would be entailed if subways were put in at all crossings, making it necesgary to raise the level ‘of the tracks and the level of the many sidings.

Largely Attended. The meeting was originally called for the puspose of taking up the deer hupiing question, this matter being incroduced by E. Beam and also spokenm on by W. J. Moody, who acted as chairman of the meet: Ing. Oscar Eby acted as secretary while the gathering was made up of the following: E. E. Bowman, Irâ€" vine Roos, Herman Wagner, Emanâ€" uel Beam, J.

Krupp, F. Bauman, P. Bergman, W. Bielâ€" stein, B. G. Mickel and L. Hoelle. but Mr. Boecker was able to sWow that this would be a difficult and unsatisfactory means of protecting traffic. M "I have seen â€"parents living on | West King street go as far as the crossing with their children in order | to get their children safely acrou‘ the tracks," declared one of the; committee. Ald. Hagedorn believed that the Grand Trunk estitmate was that it would be necessary to raise the railway tracks some eight or ten feet along the right of way throml Kitchener. This was not an expert opinion, of course, but it showed that ] conflicting ideas were possible. Some | years ago engineers had suggested a ] fourâ€"foot raise of the tracks would| be sufficient. However, Ald. Hage dorn was optimistic that if the track was raised eight Afeet then street level adjustments would be much easier. | Ald. Baets suggested that it was time for the Grand Trunk to do something for Kitckener in return ' for all the business which the muniâ€" cipality had already given the railâ€" irood. Answering a query from City -‘Endnser Shupe, Mr. Boecker proâ€" ‘mhod that with the completion of | new tracks in Whe eastern part of the city, much of the shunting would ~ iaken away from/ King street c ‘<!ng and away from the trafficâ€" ‘tmnnud crossings. Ald. Hagedorn offered a resoluâ€" tion to request that the G.T.R. make a survey of the whole situation, and upon this Mr. Boecker declared that they were ready to send an engineer here to go over the territory and draw. up plans. . The company wus ready to stand the expense of this. *The company doesn‘t have to get an appropriation to send an engineer here, and 1 promise to have the surâ€" vey started in siz weeks," replied AUTOMOBILE BARGAIN perintendeht..at .the.Y.W.C.A.,. and Overiand Tourltig $5â€"4, 6 passenger | who leaves this wesk for Gusiph ke new, at abbut halft price.
