Now how can a chap be serious and write a sensible letter with this sort of conversation going on at SOLDIERING IN INDIA. Lance-Corporal Robert Campling Bowmanville Writes from' Quetta, India. Citizens knew Bobbie Campling who sang inSt. John's Church Choir and worked at the Goodyear Factory. Wh en he and G. N. Carter left Bowmanville to enlist in England a presentation was made to them in Taylor s Arena by the Goodyear people last Autumn. The following letter will be read with interest by their old rades : Quetta, India, May 5, 1915. Dear George : Have read the James papers you/sent me with much interest, especially Pté.

The first warm days are apt to bring with them a loss of appetite and an increase of thirst. So cool drinks served with luncheon, or . in place of afternoon tea, are very acceptable. acceptable. However, it is often, difficult to think of a variety of soft drinks, and one is apt to fall back on the old standbys---cold tea and lemonade. Here are a few suggestions to help out the housekeeper. Grape juice is an excellent foundation foundation for a variety of delicious drinks and has the. advantage of being healthful. It is much more economical economical to put up your own grape juice each year, but; if you have not done this a case of small bottles does not come high. Grape juice and limes make one of the most deliciously cooling of summer summer drinks. Pour into a tali glass three or four fingers of, grape juice, add the juice of two limes and a slice of peel; fill the glass v.dth water to ;aste--a sparkling water is preferable--and preferable--and serve ice cold. To make a milk shake fill a glass .wo-thirds full of milk; sweeten it to taste with any fruit or with a little little of some strained preserve if have not the syrup. Fill the with cracked ice and shake until well mixed. Grape juice and lemonade makes a good combination, and ice cold grape juice and vichy makes a very refreshing refreshing drink. A ginger ale and cold tea punch is a novel drink that is very good. Sweeten half a pitcher of cold tea, add. the- juice of a lemon and several sprigs of mint. Keep on ice, and at the last minute pour in a bottle of ginger ale. This should not stanc before serving/as the ginger ale'wil lose its sparkle. A rather strong anc not too sweet ginger ale should be used for this punch. Iced cafe ou lait is thé best drink to serve if the luncheon is very light and, a little extra, nourishment is wanted. To make is properly ----anc it seldom is made properly--it should be carefully .blended, mixing the coffee coffee and milk well together and sweetening to taste. It is better, if possible, to use a sugar! syrup, to sweeten it. Stand on the ice until ready to serve, and then add a little thick cream to each glass and enough cracked ice to fill the glass. For the sweeter varieties of soft drinks, milk shakes and fruit syrups may be used. Fruit syrups can be made from strawberries, raspberries, cherries or currants. Cook a quart of fruit with a pint of water until well softened, then strain and press out the juice) through a heavy, cloth. When cold, histelbow? One would hardly think there was a Wav going on a few miles away from us~to see the boys now. Some are at présent on the downward path--gambling--for path--gambling--for matches. Matches are some- timès as scarce as money, so they play for them. There is no particular -wrong in it here tho, for, should one lose all he lias,.the winnev will hand him a box to keep the game going--it is Just play. The boys have faced death together, and they can certainly live together just as well. We very often know less about what goes on in the firing line than you people do by reading the papers. I don't mean all the papers ns the tall stories some of them publish must require require salt even to you people. Have had no word lately from the boys back afc tlie base, so Ï cannot sav how they are going on. Perhaps (it's a dream, I know) thev may write themselves to you. Clarence Hall threatened to write to you one day, but I was too enthusiastic about him doing so. I use all sorts of threats as regards telling tales about them, but they seem to think they know me too well. What is the use, anyway, of telling you all that happens, as you do not realize things are looked at in a different light here. Things that would shock citizens of the town of Bowmanville are every-day affairs here. No, we are not turning into cannibals, cannibals, so you need not be scared on our return, Just now one of the boys is nursing a baby belonging to the lady where he is billeted, and there are two or three around talking nonsense to it like old fathers. Who can imagine those same men, with bayonet fixed, rushing at others, intent on killing or at least so injuring them that they will be of no nse for some time to come. When one thinks of it, there are so many sides to a soldier that it is difficult-to find either his wrong or his right side. He will carry an old lady's basket for her, and at the same time threaten to knock "the stuffing out of the chap who notices him doing it. I ask for a definition of our present state of living and one says "Pigs in clover". One would think he was correct correct to see them lying around after dinner, too lazy to move--or too hot. It is good and warm here just now, hut we had a peach of a hailstorm yesterday, yesterday, with h:iil stones as big as marbles. I pitied the boys in the trenches at that time, for it tried its hardest to flood us out of -bur house here. It must have been awful in the trenches, Kind regards to everyone in and around the old town as usual.

New Use for Aeroplanes. Aeroplanes may have as important uses in peace as they are developing for themselves in war. Since the submarine became active it is claimed that one of these war vessels can be spotted by an - aeroplane even when the ship is under water. It is pro. posed to send out aeroplanes to scou for seals, and when the herds are located the fishing fleet can sail di rectly for them, instead of wasting time in the hunt. Operations of the sailing sealers- during the last season season were not successful, and the be lief in Newfoundland is that the utilization utilization of the aeroplanes as scouts will add materially to the catch in the Gulf of St. Lawrence next Pursuant to the judgment made,in this cause and bearing date the 17th day of April, 1915, there will sold with the approbation of Esq., Master of this Court at Cobourg, by L.

A fellow might get tight in the middle of the day, fall down to sleep some place, his topi comes off, and he gets a sun stroke, and then he may as well shoot himself. 1 his is a lovely country. Oh how we all love it l Our first station was 3 months-- Jan 9th to March 29th--at Karachi, a iairly large seaport on the east coast, about 300 miles north of Bombay. We are now stationed in Quetta, one of the the most important military stations in India. It is about 600 milés further north than Karuchi, up amongst the mountains on the Afghan frontier, 6,000 ft. above sea level, has a garrison of about 20,000 troops including European Infantry, Cavalry, R.G.A., R.F.A., R.H.A., Gurkhas, Buiu- chis, Pathons, and several more units--all first-class fighters, to, and they need to be, for there are tribes up in these hills who are always spoiling for a fight. In fact they have just cleaned up a few of them at Peshawa, and if they ever take it in their heads that they would like to try Quetta they will get a warm reception. We have just finished firing "Table A" of our musketry musketry course, and I believe it .is the most interesting part of a fellow's so'diering. To-day was a grand finale. We were dragged oiit of bed at 5-30 a.m., marched twomiles, got there about 6.30 and start- Axru 6 J ast two Practices of the course. When we got home again it was 11.3b and as vet we had had no breakfast. WeP, believe me, we none of us belong to the L._D. A., and the language was awful--it brightened me, and that's going some. The art of using strong language runs in our family, but the Cornish miner wins easily. Our breakfast does nqt consist of shredded wheat and cream, followed by ham and eggs, and a little fruit if necessary* necessary* but two slices of bread and jam figger big in our menu. I used to wallow in the Jim pot whilst we were in billets in Newquay, Newquay, but I shall sign off when I shake the dust of the army off my boots* Things go along in a very hum-drum way out here. Of course, we are soldiers and are treated as such. We make our own fun and keep very much to ourselves. Girls do not enter enter into our thoughts. Say, I haven't spoken to a woman since arriving in this country five months ago. You may guess how_wemiss them. Say! G. N. Carter and I were discussing a polygamy scheme last evening, to go into fo.ee right after war is over. I don't know how it will work, but something will have to be done with the surplus women after this carnage is over. The idea is not so bad, but I don't know how it would work, but there will be a surplus of females. G. N. and I are quite worried about it, not lor ourselves, ourselves, but think what the nations who are at war will be like when it is over. They will be broken nations for years to come, /or next to a crushing defeat in its aftereffects aftereffects is a big victory. We go to camp □ext week, but no one is looking forward to it with any degree of pleasure, for the glamour of soldiering has worn off and those who can get thru with the fewest number of parades to their credit are the jest off. Looking at the war with an open eye and a broad mind, we have got to land it to the Germans so far. Last September September we said we should have them back in Germany in six months, but they were fighting around Ypres last Christmas and they are still there. Things have got to move much faster than they are at present or we shall not have them out of Belgium in the next eight months, and the war only just starts when we get them there. Some of us are of the opinion that our Battalion- will go next Fall. You see the trooping season lasts from September to March of each winter and they do not troops at any other time between India and England, unless the circum- stances are very Unusual. Won't it be *fine, too, for about the time we get there whole, battalions will be going up in the air at once, for it is to be expected that they will mine every yard almost. The r*. ei !h? ans have been under-estimated by nàanÿ people, and if something unforeseen doesn't happen we are in for a long war. Anyhow, it is what we joined for, so we cannot grumble.' But how everyone wishes wishes it were all over and we were going back home again* Things in the old town seem- to be fairly prosperous. Glad to hear it. Say, George, you should see some of these army teams play football. It is lovely:. and so duced hot, too. We held our Battalion Battalion sports last Friday and Saturday. Our Company came out ahead one point. G. N. Carter won the veterans' race. - He ought to have been ashamed of himself, eh ? There was a poor old fellow about 70 who wanted to win it in the worst way. We both pulled in a tug-of-war team tha pulled second. R. Campling (2966), Lance Corporal B Coy., 2nd/4th Batt, D.C.L.I., Roberts Barracks, Quetta, India. .
