to ply mouth and all its historical asbocla ttons us memories of drake walter rallegh problsher richarfl grenvtlle hawkins and many other great mari ners who carried the hag of england to the uttermost parts of the earth in the days of tfce great queen eliza beth all these were well known to plymouth and many were born in its vipinity but we have to get to salisbury camp and to that happy end the battalion tumbled cut of- the tyrolla and lined up along the docks prepara tory to marching to the train that was to carry us to devizes in wilt shire for the first time in three weeks they were shod in ammunition boots deck shoes having been issued so as to minimize the wear and tear on the decks and this condition and the lack of physical condition due to the long voyage tilus the fact that the qualifications of the officer who led the battalion on its march- jihat night were muscular rather than cerebral these conditions combined made the first march of the fourth battalion in england a somewhat re grettable incident the first section of the trip to salis bury was a march to the train and this was accomplished as well as could be expected though i suspect the good people of plymouth were lni no danger of mistaking us for the spruce formations of the devonshire regiment as they threaded the streets j in pre war days we had no band i and the buglers had all they could do to struggle along under their packs without the additional load of blowing marches the second section of the trip was from plymouth to devizes via taunton in somersetshire and though we passed the historic town in the mid dle of the night when the drowsy world was dreaming and most of the 4th battalion with it we are con strained to pay a few words of hom age to the sturdy burghers of earlier and troublous days who trimmed and kept alight the beacon of religious and political liberty when engalnd was a house divided and tyranny and persecution were enthroned at west minister here was one of the bulwarks of the people during the civil war and here the royalist army laid siege to no avail for the sturdy population stood like a rock and beat back from their walls all attempts of the kings army to capture their city here too was the focal point for che uprising under the duce of mon mouth in 1685 an uprising that failed through no fault of the men of somer set or devon and here too as a sequel the odious judge jeffries conducted his bloody assizes which for injus tice and brutality has few parallels in history so all hail to taunton for at your altar fires many torches of liberty have been lighted and carried to the uttermost parts of the earth but the third the fifteen mile night march from devizes to bustard camp on the plains was for the left half battalion some what of an adventure and a profane one at that we reached deviebs about two on that dark foggy october morning and lined up in companies on the station platform what instructions were given to the officer who was to lead the battalion to bustard i have never heard for the battalion staff or the greater part of it piled into a motor car and disappeared taking the road under the sure guidance of a local driver while the battalion was left to find its way under the direction of the mus cular officer above suggested this narrative is no indictment of any officer or group of officers and moreover it is impossible to judge without hearing all the evidence but somehow we didnt like it for we were trained and educated in the old halton rifles that the place for all officers was with their men especially on marches over unknown roads and in conditions of danger or trial none dilemma there was but one thing to do and that was to halt and look for sonic local guide for we had no map of the salisbury area the left half battalion halted and slumped to the side of the road and smoked while we took action tojsee where we were and above all which was the right way to that part of the plains which was to be occupied by the 4th battalion since thcr plains were abogt flfteeb miles- square and no one had ever heard of the 4th battalion this promised to be pro- i blcmatlcal lieutenant newton young volun teered to invade the grounds of the estate oi the right and make enquiry at the residence and we gave him permission with bme misgiving idr since an englishmans hquse is his cas tle- and there was considerable war in progress at the time ft was some what risky to enter those grounds at 2 oclock um or a- little after but neiit was helped over the great stone fence ahd started on his- rej connaisanee and we walked develop- men la on the road and wished for the presence of the padre or the medi cal officer in case anything might hapjjen to the audacious young of ficer the enterprise gave us little infor mation except that there was a great kennel of dogs guarding that mansion and these all gave tongue at the same time and we knew that behind that wall there was a certain canadian officer breaking all wiltshire records in his endeavour to reach the stone wall intact before the same pack should come to close quarters he made it and we were right glad he did and colonel newton young has been climbing over all sorts of walls ever since and at the present time he has the honour to represent one of those turbulent constituencies in the toronto area in the dominion parliament then the upstair window of a house was raised and a truculent voice de manded what the hell are you do ing there and who are you and be fore he could pull the trigger or otherwise open fire we hastened to assure him that we were not highway men nor robbers nor a german in vasion but simply a travel weary seg ment of the 4th canadians who were looking for the shortest way to a camp which we could not properly describe he came down stairs at this with his truculence all evaporated and went out of his way to assist us in finding our way to the camp alotted to it so ended a hectic night and the moral is to see that your orders are explicit and that the march is pro perly regulated by an officer who knows the difficulties of a night march in a strange country and above all that the staff of the battalion are at the head of the column and not loll ing in motor cars while the battalion gropes its way through the dark shortly the day broke and we found by inquiry that the road was via tilshead and that the camp of the 4th was at bustard and after that it was all sole leather and macadam and no more wcri esquesing council public sciiool board of our officers from the halton rifles would have motored to damp but would have stuck with the battalion no matter what the conditions more over if an officer is not capable of marching fifteen miles he would not be employed as a regimental officer however we formed fours left andj away in uu r in u of route wlth ule senior officer at the head of the column ahd stepping out as if bis own house were on are and he the only means of fire protection like otdr tjtogcncs he carried a lanthorn the rays of which were quite invisible to the rear companies and unlike old diogenes he was not looking for an honest man had he come back among the officers and men of the rear companies he would have heard some very honest opinions and much en lightenment as to the necessity of moderating the pace at the head of the column if the men in the rear companies were to keep closed up i would give a great deal to have a talk ing movie of that march especially the talklve part of it for the men of the battalion used some strange ad- jectlves when overwrought and that night we made no effort to restrain j them for they were expressing our j own attitude in the matter it is one thing to step out at the head of a column it is quite another matter to keep the same pace in the rear companies a fact that every sol dier knows if he has marched there or if he marched with the fourth batta lion that night moreover tt is one thing for an officer who carries little more than hu haversack and sam brown belt and it is quite another thing for the men who in additlbn to their pack horse equipment carry a heavy rifle as well as all the tools in- i cident to warfare and light house keeping two spates sometimes met in j domestic life j it was a tug of war without tho rope no onehad sufficient eaergy to smoke and even the grouching that relief valve which serves the soldier in all such times of stress became a pro- fane whisper and ppeeenily died away till nothing was heard save the hoarse breathing of the men and their ryth mic tramp upon the stone road passing through a smattvillagte lavington i think the column broke in two ahd moving to the head of the company we found that the lead ing companies had disappeared in tho fog while the road forked and in this the board met at 8 pm april 8th members present r b foullsv cnair- man mrs p w cleave mrs l f denison a h duncan and h red- shaw accounts

the road to health is marked by a signpost pointing out the need for an understanding of your own body the road you will follow depends somewhat upon your condi tion as you start out you should have an appraisal made of your body to know if there are imperfections that require attention your capacity should be known so that you may gear your pace to it start out with a periodic health examination
