Send More Such Donations To the Sol- diers. |. The following extracts are from a { letter from Col. A. E. Ross to Mrs. {d. R. C. Dobbs referring to a box of 1 Bifts sent to the front during the | summer. The welcomeX{his box re- | ceived will be of interest to pud- lic, many of whom will be encour- aged to send along gifts to the boys { for Christmas. Col. Ross says: "I have the good news that your | case of presents has arrived and in | good shape. = Everything was in or- | der just as you packed it, a few hum- bugs and one package of tobacco broken. 'The case came at noon (Sept. 12th) and by night I had a | box packed and away to Capt. George | Richardson for the men in the 2nd | Battalion, and a bag away to the men in the 3rd Battery. They seem to have the largest (Kingston) repre- sentation at present. Then I gave some things to my own men. bere are about thirty with me from Ki | looked after, so we are letting the most go out to the men of the other units, "People always ask, 'What can I send you?" I will advise any en- quirer to go ask the members of} Chalmers choir. When 1 separated out the contents of the box, I had a | pile of tobacco, a pile of candy (and from our experiences there are caly two places where one can get candy, Canada and the United States) a pile of chewing gum, a pile of socks, a | pile of underwear, a pile of handker- chiefs, some playing cards, whistles, | safety razors, soap, not a thing miss- | ing that we need. I felt like Santa Claus, and don't you forget it, the men enjoyed it, even to the jokes. | 'The sweetest girl, 'the most beauti- ful' and' the one who wants him to meet her 'alone by moonlight." Talk all the love to Tommy "you like, it won't hurt you and it makes his way | pleasant. These little messages are almost sacred to him. "How good to read the familiar names, Dr. Jordan, Mrs. Yule, Dan Couper, ete. Just think of those pipes and tobacco from Dr. Joraanm, | yet some say tobacco is 'defendu.' Then there is George Lee. I would | like to know who 'Alice' and 'Mary' | are! What fun you all had in the packing. Well you know that we | all Taughed and read the notes as if {it were Christmas morning and we {all bad great pleasure and will re- | member it. How different to the | experience of the Princess Pats who! | stood on parade for church service | this morning as a Presbyterian Padre | conducted the service. He asked | them to sing a hymn of 16 verses {| omitting the 4th verse. From the | 8th to the end, only gasps were to | be heard! | "Regarding horse ambulance, I am Sorry any would try to block it, es- pecially when they know so very little of what is required. I tore my coat and pocket at a game of baseball, so +you will know how good those bats and balls you sent were to us. We | patch with adhesive plaster, but it { doesn't stand the wet very long. La- ter we start rugby." Capt. George Richardson was also heard from regarding the distribition of the gifts sent on by Col. Ross, and expressing the warm appreciation of the recipients and the welcome with which they were received. The next | box to Col. Ross will be shipped by the above choir in the course of two or three weeks so as to insure its ar- rival'for Christmas: Al friends of | "the boys" in the city who would like | to put in a gift, are heartily welcome { to do so. The gift must be of dn ap- | propriate character, with full name. | Christian name only, or initial of giv- | er signed upon it, while the addition { of a message of good cheer, affection | or fun would surely be appreciated. | The sparcels can be handed to any | member of Chalmers choir, or sent | to the office of J. R. C. Dobbs, 41 | Clarence street or to the residence { of R. H. Robinson, 234 Barkie street. THE ANNUAL MEETING Of the Women's Christian Temper- ance Union. The annual meeting of the Kings- ton W.
