This was decided last night at the an nual meeting of the Charlottetown Chess Club which elected Mr Allison MacKinnon president for the coming year. Mr. Edwin Johnstone will continue in office as secretary treasurer. Termed the "game of kings," chess knows no barriers of langu- age. age or social standing. It is perhaps the only game In which the element of luck is not present. A player wins a game of chess by sheer skill and nothing else.
