The soldier honorably discharged from the Canadian Expeditionary Force, recelves fifteen days pan af- ter'the date of His discharge, the sum of $13, in credit at any clothing store he cares to name, and a parch- ment certificate giving his history including a statement as to his con- duct was while in the army. There has been some criticism by | co those afraid to enlist and by ¢hronic grouchers to the effect that the Gov- ernment is acting "mighty small" when it pays for a soldier's service as a gratuity only $13 for a sult of clothes. These knockers explain that $13 is hardly enough for a second | C.E.F rate overcoat aside from paying for the remainder of a man's eivilian "duds". A soldier goes away from the Con- valescent Home after his term of convalescing has expired and he is examihed and reported on by a board of medical officers. The clothes ta- ken from him are his actual uniform and consist of khaki cap, coat, pants aid puttees. He retains his underwear, shoes, ete., of the Government issue. With the $13 credit at clothing store and fifteen days pay he is Jonsidered to be on the same footing as when he joined. It seems to be a sensible con- cession by the authorities and none of the convalescent soldiers have been heard to make complaints, Pen- sion etc., are arranged at Ottawa. The following have been taken on the strength of the 146th Battalion: Ernest Colting, A. F. Knowlton, James Nellis, L, H, Byles, L. A. Lew- is, H. Keeler, T, J. Beverley, The band of the 146th Battalion is parading the streets every day as an inducement to young men to join the ranks, It has been mentioned to the Whig that Lieut.-Col. C. A. Low's battalion does not make any of tlie battalion parades that so endeared the 21st Battalton to the hearts of the citi- zens, The reason for this is that un- like the 21st, the 146th Battalion is spread over' three counties. and this city. The 800 men are therefore so widely separated that it is impossible for the colonel to show what kind of a unit he has under his command. Nevertheless he promises, when camp opens, to have one that will be far and above any other in the division. "Nothing new about the camp' is the sign hung out in military circles. From many sources however, unof- ficially, the situation can be reported in the short statement that Barrie- field gets 5,000 men and Petawawa gets the artillery of Kingston. Kingstonjs.aplotted one, brigade of infantry or the equal of four battal- ions at full strength, This may mean eight battalions 'at half strength or some number of battalions; not ne- cessarily four. It seems quite decided that the bat- teries will go to the nonth sand dunes for the summer vacation, however, although it is unlikely that the Roy- al School of Artillery will be sent] there. | --- f It is published for the information| that all N.C.O's and men in the 3rd Division who are qualified for and desire to transfer to the Pioneer Bat- talion C.E.F. with headquarters at Ottawa may be permitted to do so, and such transfers must be carried out at once, the usual documents be- ing forwarded through headquarters here. Commanding officers will take such steps as may be necessary to Sugure that all ranks under their 'are made acquired the provisions of this order, aa will not hinder any man transferring if he desires to do so, provided of course, all applicants for transfer are bona-fide lumbermen. This order does not apply to the 59th Battalion It is published for the information that any man, surplus to the estab- lishments of the 50th, 51st, 52nd and 53rd Depot Batterjes, C.E.F. should be transferred to the 4th Divisional Ammunition Column, C.E.F., to be raised in the 3rd Division. Officers commanding the above mentioned units, should make their selections and prepare the necessary documents to be handed over as soon as an offi- cer has been appointed to command the 4th Divisional Ammunition Col- umn, The following letter signed by Lieut.-Col: C. A. Low, is being distri- buted to the men of the 146th Bat~ talion:- "We now have over eight hundred men in the Battalion, with about three hundred and fifty more to re- cruit. Every man understands, asa resident of the counties of Frontenac and Lennox and Addington, that he should take p personal pride in soli- citing his friends for enlistment, It is well understood, the fact of being with your own friends in the various platoons makes it very pleasant and satisfactory. It is, therefore, re- quested of each man to show his loy- alty and regard for his battalion, to do everything he can to further its best interests by inducing every av- ailable eligible man to enlist now. We go into camp in a'few weeks and must be up to strength by April 15th, Attachments: ""C" Battery, Royal Canadian Horse Artillery.--Lieutenant (super- numerary) F. C.

Brooks, W. Brooks, G. A. Hagerman, 136th Port Hope Battalion, As there are a large mumber of supernumerary officers in the vari- ous battalions in Canada to be ab- sorbed, headquarters, Ottawa, state that it is not considered in the best interests of the service to return of- ficers from the front to accept ap- pointment in battalions being organi- zed in Canada. Commanding officers will not, therefore, submit applica- tions for officers to be so return The transfer of N.CO's and men from units overseas will also not be approved of.

They claimed that Manager Kennedy had failed to pay them $1,000 promised if they won the N., H. A, championship. The Secley"s Bay team are now champions of the Leeds County Lea- gue and holders of the Sir W. T. White Cup In the final game Westport won by 4 to 2, and in fifteen minutes' overtime the score on the round was tied twice. In the'last five minutes Seeley's 'Bay notched the deciding During the game the referee and judge of play were removed by the President of the league, J. 8. Dar- gavel, of Elgin, for alleged favorit- jsm. President Dargavel personally took change in the third period and overtime. Pitcher Urban Shocker, last season with Ottawa, stands a very good chance of sticking with the Yankees after the twenty-five player rule goes into effect on May 156. Donovan in- sists that Shocker has plenty of pitch- ing ability and plenty of nerve. He does npt hesitate to use a slow ball or a spitter, even when a batter has him in the hole and he is forced to put ome over. ' Battling Hildreth Whitehouse, champion lady bantamweight and only lady pugilist to receive a box- ing permit from the New York Ath- lotic Commission, picks Frank Morin to win.
