Similar To Picture
Out of the columns of this newspa-
per have come the stories of the recent
Morro-Castle disaster which shocked
the entire world—a catastrophe which
will not be forgotten for many years
and a similiar occurence to this will be
found as the background to a popular

Destroy”, which is playing now at the
Kingston theatre.

through ignorance or a desire to earn
the coveted letter of their school, com-

trimental to their health.
Examinations are the rule, of course,

ness and remain with the boy long
after his muscles and body have passed
