It was apnounced by Sir Herbert Ames here that during the year ended "September 1st, the pa- triotic fund succeeded in raising $5,- 350.000. Some 20,000 families are now being assisted by.the fund and by next year it is anticipated this number will be increased to 25,000. As a result of the greater number of + calls now being made, the expendi- ture is now exceeding the revenue. Figures were issued showing the per capita and total contributions of the different provinces. The aver- age was 70 cents per head, while Ma- nitoba contributed $1.42 per capita, The lowest rate was in the Maritime provinces, - which contributed 36 £epts per capita. Quebec was above {the average with 80 cents, while Ou- tario was below with 68 cents per head. 4 1 The amounts raised by provinces | were as follows: : $1,675,000 1,760,000 325,000 750,000 240,000 ae a 238,000 British Columbia .. .. . 372,000 The estimated requirements for the vear commencing September 1st, {based om enlistments by provinces {are as follows: | Quebec .. | Ontario. . vein Maritime provinces. . | Manitoba ... .. ..

Some Ontario counties have done well. Halton county raised flies: within its limits for the period i of 'a year, while in addition, $37,000 was raised for the patriotic fund. The German Canadian country of Waterloo has contributed no less ithan $120,000 to date, the best showing of any county.

Barriefield camp lost another 300! men on Friday afternoon when 100! men and two officers from each of the three batteries left for Montreal. The send-off given the overseas men, while it was no more than they des-| | erved, was better than any that has | | yet been given to soldiers leaving! { Kingston for the front, and gréat | | eredit is due to a number of King- | ston ladies whose names are given | below who 'were so generous in pre- | paring a gift for each soldier.. { At 2 o'clock on Friday afternoon paraded and mar | | ¢hed out of the camp in which they | | have been training for the last few | | months. | { Preceeding the soliliers was a line | | of transports bearing their baggage | {and in this baggage were several! | boxes for which the officers. of the batteries deserve great credit. boxes contained chocolate bars, cig- | | arettes and a quantity of tobacco for | each man, and were furnished by the | officers from the canteen fund. | As soon as the men headed by the!

After the presentation of the par- cels, W. F. Nickle, M.P., in a. few words bade God-speed to the draft. He said that they were going to the front for the. greatest purpose that any person could try. to accomplish and the people who were left at home would watch their movements and try to show their appreciation of the sacrifice they would make. Col. G. Hunter-Ogilvie also spoke a few words, complimenting the men of the draft on. thel' earnest work while at the camp; awd the name | they had made for themselves. He | also wished them God-speed and ¢los- | ed by calling for cheers for Mr. Nick- le and the ladies who had furnished the refreshments. | The men were given their freedom | {for an hour and conversed and said | good-bye to friends present, after! | which they maréheduto the train that {was waiting.

At a meeting of citizens held in the City Council camber on Friday night, and presided over by Mayor Sutherland, it was decided to request the City Council to make a special grant of $2,500 to the fund being raised throughout the Empire in aid of the British Red Cross Society, upon which tremendous demands are being made, and which stands in need of assistance from the British Domin- ions as well as from the people of th homeland. After some discussion, {it was agreed that it would be inadvisable to make a general canvass of the city for subscriptions owing to so many demands having been made upon the people for patriotic purposes, and be- tause that Kingston will have to give largdly during the winter to the Ca- nadian Patriotic fund, and to the lo- cal Red Cross fund. The majority present were agreed that Kingston should do something towards the appeal being made by the British Red Cross Society, al- though it was felt that this city is in a peculiar position in regard to Red Cross work. W. F. Nickle, M.P., pointed out that the Kipgston Red Cross branch of the Canadian Society would need every dollar it could get this fall and 'winter to carry on the work it is do- ing in connection with furnishing the supplies for the Queen's Stationary Hospital at Cairo, Egypt. Dr. J. C. Connell, when called upon to tell about the needs of the Queen's Hospital, stated that it was doing British work, for of the 500 or more patients received into .it up to Sept. 15th, nearly all were British sailors. It received no assistance from either the British or the Canadian Red Soc!

Besides the request for. $2,500 from the City Council, to be raised by issuing debentures, the meeting decided to have an appeal made in the city chufches on Sunday for spe- cial contributions; and to have enve- lopes distributed for the purpose, Mayor Sutherland has called a spe- cial meeting of the Council for Mon- day evening to consider the question of a grant. ------ : A child's health deponds upon the state of his stomach and bowels.
