The kaiser's men took 'their places on the side of the street, whila the British took the other side. There was a Shortage of shrapnel for the fray, so the boys decided that stones should be the weapons of warfare. The order was given to attack and immediately there was something do- ing. Stones flew in all directions and it was not long before one from the British lines was popped into the front window of a house close bv Ihe window is a large-sized one, and 'there was a great 'smashing of glass. . This ended the fight. The sol- directions. The owner of tht house got busy and as a result he had ome of the lads who wrved on the British line, summoned to court. - And this resulted in the session of the juvenile court. The lad, when charged with the window, said: he could not say as to whether he had broken it or mot. All the boys had been throwing and he could not say who the guilty party was. The magistrate adjourned the case until Friday in order to give the young- ster time to make a settlement for the broken glass.

Rein- forcements are calculated at a year- Iv rate of 70 per cent. of the total force engaged. If the war lasts another vear Can- jada will jn all probability have at least 130,900 under: arms at the froui, Fad mobilized at the various division- al centres in 'the dominion. In addition to the second army divi- gon, announcement. of which was made a third will doubtless be sent. p. | In addition there will be the 70 per { cent. reinforcements and the 30,000 jmen always kept mobilized and in training in this country. The second Canadian contingent will arrive in England early in Jabuary. This contingent, with the extra hri- gade of infantry sent with the first contingent over the requirement for one army division, will make a: se. Leond complete army division. The se- cond contingent will have longer time and a better opportunity for training, before sailing, than the first con and should be in much better condition. The second army division will, therefore, not need so much to-day, for | training at Salisbury Plain, and will probably soon follow the first division 'The convention for { to the battle front.
