E. SMALLRIDGE WRITES. He Is With the Second Canadian Bat- talion In France. 8S. FE. Smallridge, with the 2nd Bat- talion in France, writes to J. Cooke as follows : "] am having a good time. I vol- unteered as a carpenter, and the colonel picked out forty-eight men from our battalion and shipped us to Lark Hill. That is where they put up over 1,000 huts for the 2nd contin- gent, but 1 hear they are going to be put into barracks. We were at Lark Hill for eight weeks and re- ceived two shillings a day extra. "We lost nearly a hundred men with spinal meningitis. They were buried in the Bulford churchyard and some of the battalions erected monu- ments as a remembrance. "We are near Kitchener's They have a theatre hall, stores, automobile truck sheds;~drag store, and saloons. The Canadians are not allowed any drink, We had a wet canteen but it was abused and Lien- eral Alderson had it closed.

Doyle, the Redemptionist Fathers, Toronto, gave a very interesting sermon on "The Judgment Day," to a very {large comgregation of men. The ca- thedral vas taxed to its capacity, {and the sermon was intensely 'inter- esting, Fr. Dayle reviewed the Biblical {story of the Judgmént Day and the {signs that will be shown the world when it shall come.' The' speaker urged all to be ready to meet their {God on that Day. The world graflually becoming more and more un'Christianized, Fr. Doyle said. Different. religions are springing up and the prophecies of the Bible are coming true, An appeal was made to the mem- bers to make a closer study of their Bible so that they would then be better 'able to talk intelligently about it.

Uncertainty With Regard to Market- , ing Butcher Stock. Toronto Globe Inquiries are coming in from feed- ers of cattle ,or information regard- ing the best time to market butcher stock. This is an especially puzzling question this season. Feed is ex- cessively high, and those who have it {are inclined to take a sure profit lon it rather than risk it in feeding cattle to the finished state or hold- ing them for higher market values. Another feature to consider this year is' consumption. This has fallen off, because people are 'eating less meat. They are eating less meat because their incomes have been cut down. The Lent séason has also figured in the. recent past. In spite of these factors, some of the hest authorities in the business, feeders, drovers, packers and commission 'men, are bullish in their | views on the market 'for May, and es- pecially for June. A large number of { unfinished butchers' that would na- turally have come out later have al- | ready been Zabattoired.
