PAGE SIX HAD A Barriefield Heights Quite De- serted on | Thursday. CAPABLE ARMY COOKS ARE A NEED OF ALL THE MILI. | TARY CAMPS, And Special Schools May Be Started | To Train Them--FPte, Thompson, | 48th Battalion Is An Ordained | Baptist Minister. The camp at Barriefield was rath- er deserted on Thursday, partieular-| ly during the afternoon as it was made a half-holiday and the overseas volunteers had the liberty to come Ww the city. As las been the case al- most daily since the camp opened & week ago the water claimed the largest numbers. The attraction at the Exhibition Grounds brought some but not as great a number as expected. The cheap railway! rates brought large numbers to the cily and some of these visitors went to Barriefield | Camp. The relatives of the soldiers of course were with them the great-| er part of the day, but many strang- ers made an inspection of the camp. There has been a great demand since the camp opened for qualified | army cooks but suitable men can not be secured. Therc are numer- ous men in the ranks who have at some time or other worked at cook- ing on boats, in hotels and other places, but very few kmow how to| prepare soldiers' meals in large quantities. The cooking to date has been excellent but qualified army | cooks would be much more ecofiomi cal. There is a movement on foot not only in Kingston, but in other military camps, to have schools for army cooks started, and it is ex- pected that 'such will have to hap- pen in a very short time. Pte. Thompson, 38th Battalion, | in camp, is a graduate of McMaster | University, and an ordained Baptist | minister, whe felt that it was his duty to enlist and go to the front | for his country. * | ~~ | The 38th Battalion Band furnish- | ed some excellent band concerts on | Thursday. In the afternoon for an | hour it gave a patriotic concert in| front of the Administration Build- | ing. In the evening it played at the | Mess Dinner and later played at the Camp-fire. 3 | All day Thursday men were gathi-| ering wood and brush from the | camp and made a pile of their col-| lections near the Y.M.C.O, tent. At dusk this was lighted and a huge ban-fire resulted which lighted up! the sky for miles around. There | were hundreds of visitors over from the city and with the band playing, fire works display and the huge] camp-fire it was a night long to be| remembered. { .

"Mrs. Smith," said she, as the neighbor answered her timid knock, "mother wants to know if you won't please lend her a dozen eggs. She wants to put them under a hen." "Put them under a hen?" was the wondering rejoinder of the neighbar. "1 didn't know that you had a hen." + "We haven't," was the re- joinder of the little girl.
