by Mrs. Knox Klnard.
Mrs. E. B. Hedrick gave the

Continuing the study of Can-
ada, Mrs. Essie Cardwell told
the Interesting and Instructive
story of the history of Canada
as an English colony, tracing the
development of the colonies In
the United States at the same
period of time. She explained
the causes of the Revolution and
of the War of 1812 and describ-
ed how Quebec was divided Into
Upper and Lower Canada, and
touched on the disturbances that
followed. She told of the sup-
reme military Influence and the
autocratic first Oovernors whose
dominance lasted until 1840,
when the provinces were united
again and allowed to govern
themselves for the most part.
Mrs. Cardwell stressed the Im-
portant part of the City of King-
ston has played in Canadian
history. Kingston was the frist
capital of the provinces of Up-
per and Lower Canada and the
first parlament sat there.
Mrs. John McLean reviewed

Rock” by Willa Cather, an hist-
orical novel dealing with the
