Ross is, I think, pretty gen- | erally known. The campaign for | the necessary funds is now fairly | launched, and it is in order for the | Kingston public. to show what re- sponse they intend to #hiake to the appeal, It goes without saying | that the ealls from fhe front are | many and continueus, but should! not we, who cannot be there our- | selves, not only rejoices but glory | in the fact that we can hold up our | end of the great war, by facilitating in every way {n our power 4he work our splendid men and boys are do- ing over there for us, yes, for us. When we consider the comfort, even luxury, in which the average Kingstonian has lived through the last winter. and is living in to-day, and compare these with the trerch life of our heroes---overseas. heroes every one of them--the contrast al- most ehokes us. Surely, surely the least we can do fs to do the utmost in our power to smooth the térrible road for them » In this connection 1 would like to emphasize the fact that this project | of the Horse Ambulance is not solely 'a movement on behalf of the Norse (though here I must panse to ex- press regret that to so many the sufferings of thid fakthful dumb ser- vant mean so little), but a move. ment to lighten the iaber of our ajc reddy over-taxed men at the front, in enabling them easily and expe- ditiously to accéomplish the hitherto laborious task of 'removing the maimed and suffering animals from the battle line, Then there is the economic point of view; numberless fine animals have to be mercifully shot where they lie, beeaiise unable to walk to the Stationary Veterinary Hospital, where a little attention would work their cure, As the recipient of Col. Ross' let- er on the subjéet, I have taken the liberty of writing at length. We all know Col. Ross; he is our own, and we hear (not from himself) with pride, of his fearless, tireless labors at the front.

Capt. Walsh, the veterinary officer of the Ontario Brigade, is also a Kingsto- nian. Let us see to It that neither of these soldiers of ours shall find their fellow citizens hanging fire over a projeet of such moment to them, Although the project. . be- longs to the whole province of On- tario, Col. Ross has appealed to his own city to be the starter of the campaign, and naturally expects us to show up 'well in the matted The Huniane Society has obtained by cable the consent and ap- proval of the War Office and Army Coundll of the ambulance scheme, the ambulance in ques- | tion to be for the use of the Cana- dian contingent, of War Office pat- tern, and at an approximate eost of $3,500, Let us see what Kings- ton will do towards: raising this sum.
