A Canadlan Woman Post Looking through a new, collected edition of Pauline Johnson‘s poetms the other day, I was rather surprisâ€" ed to find how many of the eighty» seven poems were familiar, and how exactly they expressed the feeling of place and the sentiment of people in all parts of the Dominion. Pauline Johnson‘s recitals in Engâ€" much as poetry, but from the aspect of history and a passionate loyalty to race. Pauline Johnson‘s loyalty to Canada and the Empire, however, was as great as to her Indian ancesâ€" try, and her poem, "Canadian Born", is quoted from coast to coast. We first saw light in Canada, the land beloved of God; marrow and its blood: And we, the men of Canada, can face the world and brag ‘That we were born in Canada beâ€" neath the British flag. ‘The presence of the Princess Patâ€" ricia Lady Ramsay promises to add tremendously to the social life of Bermuda this winter. "Soncy," the palatial Pembroke Parish estate of Mr. and Mrs. George Plimpton of New York City, which Captain and Lady Ramsay have leased for the winter season, is one of Bermuda‘s show places. Bermuda‘s famous Easter lily industry is largely due to the efforts of the late General Russel Hastings, father of Mrs. Plimpton, and for many years no visit to these islands was complete which did not include a glimpse of the glorious lily fields of "Soncy," his fairyland estate, where, in seaâ€" son, over 100,000 blossoms mignt ‘be seen, stretching away like a blanket of purest snow over the broad acres of the delightful place, the atmosphere about redolent with the perfume of the rare blooms. Capt. Ramsay, who was recently ap pointed Chief of Staff to Vice Admirai Sir James A. Fergusosn, K.C.M.G., C.B., Naval Commander in Chief of the British North Atlantic and West Indies Station, with head-; quarters at Hamilton, has preceded Lady Ramsay to Bermuda and is deâ€" lighted with "Soncy," where they will be much entertained during the coming season. ‘There is a strong probability that H.R.H. the Duke of Connaught may come as the guest of his daughter and her husband for a portion of the winter.

A special committee was appointâ€" ed by the Kitchener city council at Monday night‘s meeting to go into the question of the sale of the unâ€" useq hospital land, and, if necessary, will ask the government to pass special legislation which will permit the Hospital Trust to dispose of part of the land. It was pointed out that the hospital has considerably more land than is necessary and that the frontage tax on same amounts to $2.000 annually which the city must meet. Mayor Breithaupt referred to the fact that Waterloo and the Hos pital Trust favored disposing of some of the land. He said that Arthur Foster, chairman of the Hospital Board, had approached the members of the Seagram family with a view to securing their consent to sell the land which was deeded to the hospital by the late J. E. Beaâ€" gram, but one of the three Seagram: brothers declined to agree to the disposal of the land. If the land could be sold, the money obtained could be used for the proposed new addition to the hospital. The comâ€" mittee met the Hospital Board and members of the town council of Waterloo on Tuesday afternoon. Since exâ€"mayor Wm. Kutt has anâ€" nounced his candmm_mr the Reeveship, Henry Ja has enâ€" tered the field for the council at the next municipal elections with a number of others also considering entering the contest for the council.

ZICK, The Kitchener city council, at thel regular meeting on Monday evening, passed a resolution calling for the submission of a question to the rateâ€" payers at New Year‘s for the addiâ€" tion: of two members to the Police Commission. Ald. Hagedorn,. in making the motion, stated that it was deemed more satisfactory to‘ have five members instead of three as at present, which included the Mayor, Judge Hearn and Magistrate Weir. The latter two being in the majority could always outvote the council‘s representatives on importâ€" ant questions. The two new memâ€" bers can either be appointed by the council or by the electorate. If the ratepayers approve, the Ontario Government will be asked to pass the necessary ‘bill authorizing the city to make the change.
