Gardiner, A.D.M.S7 has returned from Ottawa where he was engaged in business in connec- tion with leasing the Cunningham home on King street as a military hospital. In dn interview, Major Gardiner stated that owing to the in- creased amount of surgical work for the soldiers the home was urgently peednd. In speaking of supplies and equipment he intimated that if some good Samaritan would donate the money the hospital could be furnish- ed with the most up-to-date equip- ment. being put fo great expense in hospi- tal work and it might take some time before the best apparatus could be secured. In the meantime the sol- diers would have to be taken care of as at present by the equipment at the Queen street Military Hospital which ic only equal to that in the average doctor's office. . Therd are other reasons why it would be very much better that the money for the operating room equipment should come from other sources. This state- ment is made after giving caréful consideration to the great need for money for other patriotic purposes at the present time. 5 It should be remembered that this home is being used not as a conval- escent home for returned soldiers as is the Richardson and Elmhurst homes, but 4s a military hospital. It will take the place of the Queen street hospital which will be used for other medical purposes.

New York World: The play- grounds of this country are just as important, if not more so, in their way as the playing flelds of Eton, where, according to the Duke of Wel- lington, the battles of England were won. In the great manufacturing centres they are the safety valves for a lot of stored-up energy which oth- erwise might be misapplied. Ath- letics under proper regulation and control are highly educational, Through them standards:of sports- manship and fair play can be better explained and emphasized than in any other way perhaps. s Many major league players haye been signed by the Internationsl League clubs.
