The Sam Hughes Look The fuUowing very inteicstiiii! article «p()eari.-<) in h Loudon daily just uiior to the removal of the second contingent to France : *• Yaiw â€" sure." If y(u cross the South Downs in Kent at the present time, and ask the tiwt aoldiei you meet if you ate in tliu neigh- boiliood if t'je Ciiniidiiin camps, you will receive this reply, " Yaasâ€" sure.," in the accent » hich seems to Knglish ears to liail direst from " ChicawKo," -but it is pure Canadian. There «re many thousand Canadians camped on the Kentish Downs. A hun- dred year* nijo the Ktnii'.h yei men trained there to me-t Napoleon'.s tlirent- ened invasion. Eight hundred years ago, alon« the same line of hills, but a little further west, the Saxons gathered to meet the Norman invaders, aiid two thouiand years hgo the Itritons trumped across these hill tops to watch the ships of the in coming Romans. Todiiy Cana- da's second army has pitched its huts on the Dowii.s, and if you ask ihc Canadian tioldier wheiher ho lites the spot, he leplies eniplmtically, '• Vaasâ€" sure.' If he did not he would be hard to please. Canada has stamped her hall mark on •every one of thete thousands of her sons the S:»m Hughes look.. Whether from the east, or the weht, of the far west, or ftorth, and they come from every corner of Canada-â€" the Sam Hughes look is over thom all. You see it in the eyes, whose glance is ait straight as that of a machine ){un, and in the mouth, which is as firm «i a steel plite, and in the poi^c of the he:id, which is as ste iJy a-< (he Rocky ^fountains. Tliere is ;iii air of as'urance ji.id confidence in ilie walk, as if each man felt ([Uito sure tlmt thn lartli waa tnade for Canadians ; anJ n super-.Anier- ican aspect of independen.;i', which is all part of the Sam HuxIibs look. There arc not merely battalions, hut brigades of the.s? tall, bioad shouldered, <1p''P chcstod Canadians on the Kentish Downs. Their facei are tanned, and they are as til as men cm be. No one in England has heaul much about them â€" the I'resi Huicaii projeily -co.used u« to i^'iKiie their .irriva'. but for three nioiilhs I hey have been st home on the Kentish Dowjis, and in two or three of ihe liille UrsHgliiig towns along tK- sea their maple leaf is nir.ie f.imilinr than the badge I'f the Kenti'-h battuli(iii.«. All tho girls h'lve several Canndiiin admirers eich â€" sure. But for all I lie iulen.se Canadiinism of these sous of the maple leaf, tliere is r.o doubtim; the breed fiuni which they have sprung. They look, indeed, iiioie .\nglo- Saxon, foi they hine the pioneer bearing which must have marked the Anglo Saxon invaders, but which centuries of settle- ment have tamed in thj Knglisli. They Jiie more like our forefathers tlmn we are ijurtelves. Take your stand on some edges of the Downs a few miles from the camps, and watch a biiiiade of tho Canadians come •over the hillside. They are marcl.ini; as to war, battalion after biitalion, e.^cli with its mule train of ammunition, its supply wagons, its ambulanceR, and a line of cooking stoves on wheels, bubblins; as they go, wi'h the "^mokn trailini from their chimneys. After them come the ffUiiR, and the long line winds down the steep lane to the so* level, and crawls away across the miles of niaish land towards the bivouac for the night, ft i a re.'tdy-for- war brigade, made .iiid hall 4iiarked in Canada. Hut as you stand near the little old church where the dead of tbe parish have been buiiel during a thousand years, and ai you watch these t'oving fighters swing by, th i breasts of many ot thom bare to the sun and tho breesie, and their grey-bluo eyes bright with the joy of lifing, you begin to forget that they are a' I frum Ontario, and that they are men who call themselves by that new name, Canadians. Ynu see in them the old Anglo-Saxon tighters who con- <luerod Britain and made England. They bivouac in the chilly marshes for the night, sleeping on their waterproof «heefs, anlatr>.:ii) in tho morning nro «8tir again, for they are to tight the battle of Hastings anew, ns invader.'*, with another brii?ado bs tho defondins; «nemy. Tho defenders hec, Nova 8oo;ia, Mew llinnfwick (a Inttolion of Fieiich Canadians amon.^ thcni) have bivou- acked on tho hills de, and at daybreak line the trenches p.eparedfor the defence. The light occupies most of tho I'uy.and ends when the invaders, bridging a canal, I urn tbe defenders' flank and gain the country at their rear. Like all true soldiers, when the fighting does not iramediatsly concern them, some of the defenders snore peacefully in the shade at noonday under the trees, awaiting tho signal for acti ju. Here and there one of them gazes over the countryside with eyes for tho beauty of the view. " Sure, 1 never thought England was like this," s,iys a New Brunswicker. " 1 always imajiined England was all built up ; I didii'c think there'd bu hekls and sheep and trees. I guess I'd like to have a good look around England when this w:ir is through." The real excitement of the day is that of the scouts, who crawl riund cornfields, lie in wet ditches, ;ind escipe capture by niiracU's. A scout comes in, galloping.', pulls up beside (he otticer. who sent hiin out, and reports. He wastes no time in saluting;, bnt just shakes his head and says, " Nothin' doin'." There is no excess of cere'nioiiy, but the Canadian ofhcer.s and men uudcrst.ind and respect each other's woith. Ii is a tine sight to see tbtse Canadian brigades march pa^t oa (he Downs, for (here are no regiments in the British army which march betterâ€" and that is saying a great deal. You can see that every man of them is proud that he is a Canadian, and means to make everybody proud of Canada. Like their cousines the Americans, the Canadian soldiers have a well-formed souvenir habit. They love spoons, old Sheffield plate tankards, table gonjj*â€" any little thing that reminds them of their visit to England. " 1 think the real reason why th.it king chained Bibles in the churches," a Kentish sexton said, " was that he knew the Canadians would be comiiij;." " Well," replied a Canadian soldier,"! guess I'd like the chain, too." Many of them will take livin.' touve- niis back to Canada, or ihey will come and settle in England, when the war ii over. All the girls for miles around have engagement rings. Notice Dr. R. F. Englisli, ( laioopatliic Physician, of Owen .S'jund, will he in Klosherton on Tu.'Kday and Friday after- noons of ea;h week.
