Ofi- cers have to buy their own uniform and have countless expenses to meet and knowing thatthe faces are so to- tally different from the general op- infon held by civilians, the officers are sure that the publication of the rates will clear up a general misun- derstanding.

Warm days bring hopes of camp. | Officers are of the opinion that from now until camp opens there will be a gradual though small decrease in the numbers of recruits coming into kha- ki. The warm weather has the pecul- open air and certain class, who will eventually go, will enlist in a body as soon as the camp is opened. Major C. J. Burritt, C.R.C.E., and his very capable staff are now busy drawing up the plans for alternationy to the camp grounds. It Is planned to have an annex Quilt to the pres- ent administration building. The bakers of the Army. Service Corps will require a new building and the engineers themselves will want more office room. The sanitary conditions will be even better than last year. The water supply and drainage will be on a slightly differcnt scale and vastly improved. The Press is prom- sed better accommodation. Capt. R. E. Layfield, 80th Battal- ion, Belleville, was in the city on Fri- day as was also Lieut. W. J. Boyd, 8th Brigade, A.C., - of Ottawa. "Nothing but 'regulation uniform shall be worn and no alteration in dress shall be made without orders," is an order by Lieut.-Col. C. A. Low to the 146th Battalion. The following have been admitted to the 146th Battalion: S. F. Self, R. R. Dougan, H. Commer, N. Robich- 'aud, John R. Bell, E. J. Cledgett, K. G.

The paymaster was on Friday the most popular man of the unit. It is published for the information of all concerned, that all soldiers of the Canadian Expeditionary Force, who have returned from overseas, and who have received an honorable discharge, on their return, are to be | permitted to retain their vhiform. In the casc, however, of any soldier who | has been discharged for misconduct, steps are to at once taken to deprive steps should, if siops of the Militia Act. An explosion had occurred in an ammunition hut behind the lines in France and the colonel, who was on a trip-to the trenches, hurried*back to | make an ifivestigation. "How in the world did it happen?" | he asked the sergeant in tharge of the hut, as he viewed the wreck. "Who was to blame?" "Well, you see, sir," replied the sergeant, "it was this way. Private Murphy went into the powder room, probably thinking of something else, and struck a match in mistake. He "Struck a match?" exclaimed the colonel in amazement.

Oscar Tuero ,the Toronto Cuban pitcher, who has been in the New England League for three seasons and who had a short trial with the Jersey City Internationals; will re- port in a few days to the Lynn club of the New Epgland circuit. Eddie Livingstone proposed to ad- opt next season the. O.H.A. offside rule, coupled with the six man game, He does not believe the P. C. H. L. forward pass would help.

Egan looked like a mighty good prospect a couple of years ago, but last year he fell down badly, especially in his hitting. Detroit have cffered infielder Full- er last year with Ottawa, to. the Leafs, but the Horonto club at pres- ent have no place for him. The New York Nationals have ask- ed for waivers on Jim Thorpe, and are trying to place the Indian wita one of the International League clubs. Thorpe was offered to Roch- ester, but Tommy Leach did not want him. .

Herzog has ordered the Regs not to bowl, and Connte Mack has urged the Athletics to abandon golf, Ban Johnson has barred writing for the papers. It almost seems as if the baseball players would have to play baseball this season. Donald Smith, one of the cleanest puckchasérs in the NH.A., favors six man hockey with the old penalty rules. . He claims it would soon re- sult in the passing of rough house artists. His only objection is that it might also Tesult in loafing and leave defences continually open. Ottawa will return this season to the National Lacrogse Union. In view of the suspension of the Canadian Baseball League it was décided to make an effort to bring back la- crosse, which formerly enjoyed great popularity in Ottawa, : "Jack" Johnson was thirfy-eight vears old Friday as he was born in Galveston, Texas, on . March 31st, 1878. In spite of his vain boastings to English newspaper scribes, to whom Tecently expressed thie belief that he was able to] tick any man breathing, Johnsorm js surely through as a boxer. According to the Eng- lish papers, Jack didn't make any big hit as an actor-man, and added little to his pile by that means. The money he received from his battle with Willard in Havana has practie- ally vanished, and the big smoke is said to be tn the verge of that condi- tion popularly described as 'being "broke." When at last he reaches that condition, there will be a great scattering of the hangers-on who have fattened on Jack's past Pros- perity, and the big black will find himself friendless and alone. , Lacrosse players who have la placed under the ban in the amateur association for any less offenfe than out and out professionalism will like- ly be reinstated if they are in khaki, and this is what should take place. A man in the uniform of hig country should receive all the consideration e. s Changes to the playing rules of the National Hockey Assqpiation were liberally discussed at a meeting of representatives from the .five afiili- sted clubs in Montreal. The penal- ty system, which has been one of the weakest used by anv of the hockey Shag | associations during this season, will Wialy be <hanged for next winter. It by one of the repre- 'aesssnsadeesasesnssnsmasssssssssssssessssscsssesansssssssssssscssnsssnnssnsses In the World of Sport sentatives that the Western penalty rules, which have been endorsed by the officials handling the Stanley Cup series, be adopted, with a change which will allow substitutes for play~ ers who draw minor penalties, while those being given major penalties cannot be replaced, which means that a club would occasionally play a man short. This rule would elimi- nate the rough play participated in during the past two or three seasons by players of the N. H. A. Another change to the rules was suggested regarding offside play, This is another rule used by the On- tario Hockey Association, oné of the strongest of governing bodies, be used. Under the O. H. A. rules one player can skate another on side. This not only makes the play faster, but does away with unnecessary stops for offside play that have a tendéncy to make the game drag at times. In a letter to Secretary Fred. Wag- horne, of the Canadian Amateur La- crosse Association, President Hay- don, of Saskatoon, head of the 8. A. L. A, states that he is now .drawing up a constitution for the Dominion body. When his task is finished he will send a copy to Secretary Wag- horne in order that he may look it over and offer suggestions, At the same time President Hay- don is also drafting a set of rules of competition for the new trophy which will replace the Mann Cup as embematic of the Amateur Lacrosse |' championship of Canada. The new trophy is to be donated by Dingwall Bros., of Winnipeg. Unlike the Mann Cap, over which questions of dispute and what teams shall play for the cup, are decided by three trustees, the new trophy will be in full charge of the C. A. L. A. This, it is expected, will do away with the continual sqGabbling which took place over the Mann Cup for a num- ber of years, as there will then be no intermediate body to consult. The Ontario Amateur Lacrosse As- sociation is looking forward to the best convention in its history, and at this date reports from the lacrosse centres, in spite of the war condi- tions, promise that fhe great boom the national game has had during the past two years wil! be continued, and 1916 will see a record number of 'eams playing. Of 'the fourteen hundred players the O.H.L.A., over seven hundred, or more than Half, are 'to be found in khaki, A great many have already crossed overseas, while those who re- 'towns and cities, in training. 2 » JNo. who held certificates last season in| main on this side in their respective] THE ¢ your carpets are-up.
