Northrup r THE PATRIOTIC FUND. The appeal to the people for a sec- ond contribution to the Patriotic Fund has not been cheerfully an swered, and for two very evident rea- sons: (1) All the first contributions, | some of them spread over many months, have not been paid, and (2) the calls upon the willing givers have become numerous and pressing. Un- der the circumstances it is doubtful whether a second demand, in successfully met The Patriotic Fund suggested, and laynched so early in the war as to have a urique claim upon the public bounty. The cam- paign in connection with it, too, was practically directed by the Govern- ment, and undér the auspices of an organization that guaranteed it a splendid administration. And yet there have been changes in it, in the purpose or object which it covers, and the sufficiency of gifts promises to beeome in the mer future an in- sufficiency. There is more now go- ing out than there is being paid in, and the fund must all too soon disap- pear unless it is supplemented. ' More and mere it becomes appar ent that the Government of Canada will have "to exercise an oversight upon the movements that are being started and that have for their qbject the raising of funds for patriotic pur- poses. There is no limit to the number and variation ;, of these --schemes. They are running amuck, or they are colliding, and in the con- fusion which these unregulated ef- forts cause there is a danger that the fountain of benevolence will be seri- was wisely ously affected. * "Tt was the Toronto | News 'that suggested some sort of governmental control, and the more the subject is studied the more it ap- pears that this control is dbsolutely NECOSSAEY, : "About 450,000 Armenians have been slaughtered by the unspeakable Turks. What a record of blood! What a crime without a parallel, and all because they are Armenians, and have been, true to-their Chris- tian professions, and refuse to be- come Mohammedans. 5» WOMEN RECRUITERS Complaint is made that the wo- men in Hamilton, have become offen- sive towards the men because of the manner in which they have been ad- dressed upon the question of war. The Government does not regard these women as regruiting .officers, but they have 'constituted them- selves as such and have essaved © the lives of some men more or léss miserable, as they have been Jibed upon their duty to the State. "The women do not kuow, of course, the circumstances of every case. They assume that every man who is physically equipped is eligible for 'the King's service and because he has not. ealisted assume that he is guilty of cowardice. : g So. far has this tendency been car- ried that the Hamilton Herald pro- tests against it. The man who stays at home may have a reason which is known only to himself,%or to his friends. He should not be challeng- ed without cause, and te should not have humiliation put upon him. On thre contrary he should be left to his own devices, to the consciousness that he is under serveillance, that he is being mentally measured or cen- sured, and that his conscience will 'probably do its work. The Hamilton Times adds: efforts to induce men to emlist who ought to enlist. But let their influ- ence be exerted upon men whom| they know : whom they Know to be eligible not only in age and physique, but in other respects not so apparent.
