Montreal, Canada Canada has already merited and^ob- tained theproud distinction of furnishing furnishing 400,OOt) soldiers under the'volun- teer system.' That is surely a récbrd to be proud of when it is considered that not a foot of her territory lias ever been polluted by the tread of a hostile Hun. It is purely a patriotic sacrifice in which an intense love for the Mother Country alone prompted the gift. _ But those volunteers have erected a monument of fame that any country may well be proud of ; and their heroic deeds will constitute for all time the brightest and sublimest page of history. history. Her casualties have probably reached about 100,000 of her brave sons, which indicate that the boys were in the thickest of the fight, and where dangers were the greatest 'in this, the most decimating, horrible, and cruel of all wars. * * * * But Canada is to adopt the selective draft system for the future, as I notice Premier Borden has intimated is the government's intention of doing by proper measure of the Dominion Parliament. Parliament. Premier Borden has just returned returned from a visit to the trenches, where he met the Canadians west the new, Austrian monarch took his place on the throne. But peace, when it comes, is not likely to be accomplished solely or primarily primarily through a decisive battle on land or sea. It : is" much", more likely to be brought about by influénces n?t usually counted on by'those who make war. Self-preservation, fear of universal universal revolt among thé pebplë against monarchies, is one. .World-wide failure failure of crops, and what that means to the people at war and those on the fringes of war, is another potent influence influence that, may upset, the calculations calculations of the" militarists. . THE SOCIALIST PLAYS HIS PART. That despised and 'hated race of agitators, known as Socialists, have come to the front since Russia has selected selected six of them in her newly constituted constituted ministry. Conservatism and Socialism strike liands in a cause that submerges all differences of opinion. Men have come to realize at last that only one thing matters--the deliverance deliverance of the world from the threat of armed autocracy. Russia was foremost in giving the -Socialist this prominence, the wisdom of which may well be doubted. Th^ of : Russian ministry now consists of 12 Vimy Ridge just before the famous j members, and" to give one half to the charge that swept away this german Socialists stronghold. Here he learned the critical need for more troops, for he says- the boys pleaded with him to maintain the stream of reinforcements, so we may consider the proposed draft as his answer answer to their plea. * • * * * Canada now has five divisions on the firing line, and enough reserves in England to fill the gaps likely to oc-, cur for some time to come. We, on this side of the line, are glad to know that our plucky little Northern, neighbor, who led the way to the firing ! line from the Western-hemisphere, has not wearied, much less relaxed, her noble efforts to hold aloft the grand old banner of democracy which is bound to win as sure as the sun is to rise on the eventful morn. The con- \ sciousness of ' Canada's determination to thus dauntlessly maintain ' the struggle at any sacrifice, will " great-, ly stimulate the spirit of America. North and south of the great lakes we are all comrades now, and Canada can rest assured that there will be no shirking until the big job is done, and Kaiser "Wilhelm" and all that his militarism implies will be buried in is a hazardous experiment. They took advantage of. the general chaos incident to the revolution, and while averring dislike to accepting responsible responsible office, nevertheless practical- ly"forced their way into office. * * * * This thing might have happened in times of peace, without affecting the world or causing more than a passing comment; but coming at this time when the great issues of democracy may hang upon the action of Russia, it at once and profoundly affects the whole of mankind. Its evident effect is seen in Ger many's reaction towards her own Socialists. Socialists. The Socialists, upon whom the Kaiser poured his fierce invectives in the past, and who were so despised by Bismarck, and the autocracy of Germany generally, have suddenly won favor of the upper class by their philosophy pledged to their overthrow. overthrow.

The Russian sword of revolution revolution is two-edged, and has been cutting j and slashing both ways, so that all the crowned heads of unlimited governments governments are uneasy as to the present and future, and none more so than Au stro-Hungar y , which^with Spain, is the last of the dynasties that listened to the Vatican. The Spanish people are rebellious now, and if this war continues, there is no telling what will happen by fall. Constituted authority, . familiarly known as the "Divine right" prerogative, prerogative, is at a very low ebb in all the countries at war, or mixed in the war, and the people are liable to rise up any time and act for themselves. But the position of Austri^is more than desperate, no matter which way the war ends. If Germany wins, or compels a draw, Austria will disappear and become become tributary to ^Berlin. If not bolstered bolstered by Germany the dual monarchy will disintegrate, for there is nothiiig left to hold it together, the people have no common aim politically, though they may have religiously. And'if Germany completely dominates Austria-Hungary, the authority of the Vatican will be lessened greatly, if not entirely ended. If Austria can make peace now, as she is trying to do, so as to save herself, herself, or avoid becoming the tail to the German kite, her emperor and the head *of the -Catholic Church will take that course.

The following hints from an acquatic expert may be found useful. Two summers ago, Vera Stedman, the well-known actress, couldn't swim a stroke, now she is one of the most wonderful girl divers and swim-, mers in the United States. She has'/ attracted attention from athletes all over the country. Miss Stedman has an easy explanation explanation for her extraordinary rapid progress. "Most girls--and men, too--make the big" mistake of learning to swim with the breast stroke. I can't imagine imagine why such .a stroke is ever taught for any reason. It crooks back your neck like a horse with a tight check-rein; you can't make any progress; when you bring up your l^gs to kick, you lose- all the impetus you gained. There is only one real stroke worth while in swimming--that is the American American crawl. Years ago this used to be regarded only as a stroke for finished swimmers .and even then only to be used for short distance swimming; but -athletes have now learned that it is a good long distance and any purpose stroke. It is the first stroke I- learned. "The way I began was down at the beacjî^ I used to see the boys swimming swimming around and they were all swimming swimming the crawl stroke. I didn't know any other way, so I learned from -watching them. The first stroke I ever took in the water was with the crawl and I was a good swimmer before I ever learned any other way. <H course, I can swim dozens of strokes now, but I learned them all after the stroke that is popularly supposed to be the post-graduate course in swimming. swimming. "The funny part is that the crawl is the most natural and the simplest method. "You must naturally .reach out and claw the water in toward you the way animals .swim. The only thing that is a little puzzling at first is the management^ management^ of your feet. You don't kick as With other strokes. You just keep your legs straight out and wobble wobble your feet up and^ down a little-- straight up and down in the water. Your feet probably help you a little in making progress, but the main purpose purpose in the foot motion is to keep your feet and legs near on the surface of the water. The motion is accomplished accomplished with your hands. "One of the best ways to learn to swim is to hold on to a boat or a piece of a wharf with your hands while you learn to paddle with your feet. One good method is to get à surf board and hold yourself up with that while you learn to use your feet. * Miller's Worm Powders are a pleasant medicine for worm infested children, and they will -take it without objection.
