Tire 21st battalion members have now all passed the medical examina- tion and the officers examinations commenced on Monday afternoon. It was found that less than three per cent. of the men were rejected which goes to show that the exami- nations at local points were very strict. At Valcartier, between eight and nine per cent. of the volunteers were rejected and had "to return home. The rule was then made that the fares of any men sent Wome from mgbilization points in the or- ganizing of the second contingent, should be paid by the doctor who ex- amined and passed them at the local recruiting point. In one village in this district, the local doctor, taking fo chance, only accepted twenty-four out of fifty-four who applied. This new rule has saved the country a great deal of expense and saved men much inconvenience, Men gre not brought to the city from thelr home place, where they have resign é4 positions and made sacrifices, gn ly to be sent back again after =o week's stay.

Dur- ing the service the commanding officer, adjutant and two majors stand in the front. The officers are in a line and in lines about four paces apart the men of the battalion stand shoulder to shoulder. On Sun- day it was ¢ertainly an impressive sight to see aight hundred khaki clad soldiers and the citizens in the galleries singing to the music of the R.C.H.A, band, "Stand Up, Stand Up For Jesus." An incident worthy of note is the quick way in which the officers and men, without an order, came to at- tention when the national anthem was sung.

Thy Physical Drill, It is wonderful the 'way the physi- cal drill has straightened up the soldiers. The men when they came here were of all shapes. Stee had round shoulders and a slouchy walk. Now they 'are soldiers. The officers, of course, have all had more or less oxpérience and set the example of throwing their shoulders back. The physical drill consists of shoulder and leg and rupning and breathing exercises. It is unlikely that an ambulance corps will be formed here. Three have been organized for the second contingent in wither places. Fach sompany of a battalion provides iis own stretcher-bearers but outside of the sanitation there will be no me- dical attachment from the eily. Lieut:-Col.

THE G RAND TRUNK. Teaches Apprentices By New Corre. spondence Scheme. A correspondence course is to be one of the novel advantages enjoy ed by Grand Trunk apprentices for the first time this winter. W. D. Robb, the general superin téendent of motive power, has some six hundred apprentices in his de partment of the railway"s work, the young féllows being trained in the (various lpecomotive shops of the dompany at Montreal, Stratford Battle Creek and other points. The benefits of this training are such that boys are sent from all parts of the American continent, and ev- en from Europe to take their ap- prenticeship here. If they pass their entrance examination they are given a trial of from two to three month in the shops and if satisfactory are asked to sign indenture papers bind: ing them for the period their trad calls for,--machinisis for five years patternmakers and boilermakers fo! four years. : During this apprenticeship the boy has to attend classes arrange! by the company and is taught me chanical drawing and practical me chanics. Exminations are hel periodically to test the knowledge o the boys and at the end of the tern « final examination is arranged fo the whole system, the marks being compiled and .the station having th prize donated by the company. In dividual prizes are also given to the boys. This year it has been decided t improve the opportunities of the ap prentices at small stations where it has not been pessible to keep in structors. Correspondence eourses mapped out, along the most improv ed lines, have been adopted for this purpose and the boys will be in touch in. their theoretical studies with headquarters in Montreal. Tex books have been. compiled. by. the company in both drawing and 'me chanics suitable to the requirement and these have been made as prac tical as possible, so that the practical work may line up_with 'the theory taught The quality of the work done hv the apprentices was shown this fal) when apprentices from the Stratford shops obtained one first and three seconds in mechanical drawing com petitions at Canadian National Ex hibition, at Toronto, while the Montreal boys took two first priz LIVE STOCK MARKET.
