Canada's Registration Its Purpose and Application CANADA faces the gravest crisis in her history. Four years of war have taken from the Dominion a heavy toll in talent and labor, yet despite tl;e shortajje of man power, our Allies still depend on Canada to maintain her own fighting forces at full strength and to increase her exports of food and war materials, so vital to them, and to the successful prosecution of the war. F.';ery ounce by which Canada can increase her food production and every ounce Canada can save in her food consumption is needed for export to the Allies. Should the war continue for another year, food cards and a rationing system may have to be instituted. It is the duty of Canada to be prepared for whatever situation circumstances may force upon her. It is (luite probable that before the war is won our Government may have to place restrictions upon the occupations in which men and women may engage. In such an event the Government wishes to be in a position to render all possible assistance in keeping our population usefully and profitably employed. Regis*4ration Day, June 22nd so that every available unit of human energy may be Utilized (o the beat advantage. The information procured throutih registration will be used â€"as an aid to the Military Authorities in pro- curing the men necessary to maintain "Canada's First Line ol Defence" â€" to mobilize all units of avail- able labor in the Dominion and direct them from lest essential to more essential occupationsâ€" (o establish and intelligendy administer a system of food rationing should that become necessary. authority of Canada Registration Board These conditions point (o the necessity oi Canada knowing the exaift capabilities of her men and women at home. All persons residing in Canada, raain or female, British or alien of 16 years and over, will be required to register on June 22nd and truthfully answer the questions set forth upon the registration card. Il is not the Government's intention to conscript labour in any form, but to assist in directing it wisely, 21 Issued bjf The liords on Siiffriige. It is the .ueneral opinion that the speeches in the House of Lords against woman .suffrage, at the ses- sion which witnessed the victory of ' the women's cause, certainly did not err on the side of originality, what- ever high level they reached in the matter of eloquence. Lord l.opeburn spoke of "a leap u\ the dark," one of the .Moining Post's favorite expres- sions; Lord Curzon of the "opening of lloodgates." It was curious how prominent a part was taken In the debate by no less than five chancel- I lors, past and present. Two were in favor. Lord Haldane and Lord liuck- raaster, and three against. Lord Fin- lay, Lord Halsbury and Lord Lore- burn. Division of opinion among the heads of the lej;al profession is no now thing on tho question of wo- men's enfranchisement. A story is recalled of how. many years ago, the then Attorney-General, afterward "Lord Chief," Sir John Coleridge re- marked that women possessed many qualities lifting them to be judges, but was brought up with the growl from Serjeant Dowse that "because so many judges are old women that's no reason for making old women Judges." How the Rcinforcementti Kront' Rii8.>sia Will Be Tsed. The German army Is taking ad- vantage of the reinforcements it has been able to bring to the western front from Russia to effect a re- organization or formation in order to strengthen the fighting units, says a cable despatch to the New York Tribune. At the beginning of (be war the German army was organized in powerful manses, Ijut as the fight- ing reduced the number in size until a r.e>inan division, whch counted 42.000 men of all anns at (he be- ginning of the war, became 16.000. The Kcho de Paris gives the fol- lowing as the new organization of (he German battalion: A staff, comprising a comraand'>r, two aids, a quartermaster and a chief iliedlcal officer. Four companies of infantry, each with a complement of lightweight machine guns. A machine gun company with four ofllcers, eighty-five enlisted men and non-commissioned officers and twelve heavy machine guns. A mine thrower detachment with eight mine throwers. Necessary transport. It Is not evident as yet whether they are going to return to the former system of four battalions to the regi- ment and four regiments to the bri- gade, but even if they do not, they have strengthened the division by not less than 3,000 and thus brought it up again very close to 20.000. Le Temps describes the present method by which a German battalion advances to the attack as follows: "At the moment the artillery bar- rage Is lifted from the opposing first line trenches, a detachment compris- ing one machine gun and a comple- ment of grenade throwers leaves the German lines and advances into No Man's Land. The machine gun ia placed at a point that will command the enemy lines while the grenade throwers go on to where they ca« throw their grenades Into the trenches. German prisoners â- who have explained this formation say that it gives excellent results, as the grenade throwers can often clean up the front line trench t>cfore the main body of the battalion leaves the trenches and thus it is not held up in its charge. "The assaulting columns in the German army are now provided with arms and munitions for only a quick, sharp light. The machine gun mea carry a revolver and sixteen cart- ridges and a bayonet each, while they have only 1.000 or 1.500 cart- ridges for the gun. The grcnadien* have each a rifle and bayonet with sixteen cartridges and twenty gren- ades. They wear rubber-soled shoes to walk noiselessly. The machine gua I men and grenade throwers are all under thirty years of age and are men who were athletes before the war." tmmaam MM Haiti on Hairdressers. The Defence of the Realm Act, which has been nicknamed "Dora," has come in for more abuse from hair dressers owing to an einliarpo put on the use of the spirits for gen- eral use. The measure has become necessary In consequence of the enor- imously increased demand for muni- Itioii and Ued Cross needs. Dry sham- ipons and hair lotions are all threat- jened by the latest order of "Dora,"' and as the use of methylated spirit for burning purposes is also forbid- den, thousands of forced-draught oil- stoves which cannot be lighted except by the aid of spirit, are made useless. Artificial Diamonds. Sir Charles Tarsons, who has been experimenting (or over thirty years upon the production of artiheial dia- monds, will shortly lecture at (ho nrltlsh Institute of .Metals on tho re- sult of his labors. He has probably more inventions lo his credit than any other living Fnglishman.

The "Poilii" In the Hospital. What sort o£ a man the poilu is as he lies defenseless in his bed. I may as well admit at once, after sev- eral months of intimacy with him. that he has not only conquered my affection which any poor stricken lad might do. but has inspired tn me a profound respect. I will not say that I have been surprised to lind him brave and cheerful, for his patience in su£fering has been not less than j I expected. But perhaps no one who has never helped to nurse wounded soldiers could have anticipated that men from the humblest walks of life, the rank and file of farm laborers, factory hands, cab drivers, butcher boys, and the miscellaneous herd of city clerks, would, witli scarcely an exception, have proved so refined, so gentle, so responsive to any over- ture of courtesy and any demand of generosity. France has always been a great civilizer. She has given man- ners to the world. Her people em- braced Christianity when "our fathers worshipped stock and stones." She was foremost among the nations to be Inspired with the divine folly of cliivalry. She, with America in her hand, was the Hrst to turn at the luile-post of democracy and begin the arduous race for equal rights and- mutual sacrifice in human society. After all, then, that her sons, the poorest and most ignorant of them, should be rich in grace and wise in conduct is not surprising. One little trait is significant. When gentlemen are hungry they show their breeding; by restraint and consideration for j others, and it is a fact worth noting ! that in our wards when meals are i set upon the table the men eat with j a decent regard for all and with sin- â-  gular self-respect. They divide the , food among themselves justly, giving, I indeed, an extra portion to the weak- est; they hold their knives and forks j properly; tliey enliven the repast { with wit and humor and make of It j a pleasant diversion. â€" Scribner. Koyal .\utoRraphs Go Cheap. The bidding for royal autograph letters contained in the Morrison collection offered at Messrs. Sotheby's rooms in London recently, showed less reverence for the dignities of royalty than one would have expect- ed a few years ago. A letter written l^ Queen Chris- tina of Sweden sold for £3 8s. The bidding for a letter of Catherine de .Medici began at 3s. and ended at £3. A letter to Louis XIll. from Charles I, signed by the latter, made only five guineas, while an autograpb description of the. battle of Marston Moor was bought for £300, Sovereigns In Bolivia. Bolivia has a strange connection with Great Britain in the fact that tho Knglish sovereign is the standard gold coin, remarks the London Chron- icle. This is minted from local gold at tlie capital of the country. La Pax, along with tho Peruvian halt sove- reign, which also ie legal tender.
