"Oh, I'm sick 'and tired of hearing about the poor, starving Belgians! Why do the papers keep TL away on that same old subject?" . "Because the Belgians are still hungry, I suppose. By the way, haveyou given much to ~ mes the Belgian Relief Fund?" "Well, I can't say I have given anything yet. But then there are so many demands on one's purse these war times." Isn't that usually the way? Those who 'have followed the impulses of humanity and have given what they could to the Belgians are the ones who are always interested, who sympathize with their sufferings and are willing to keep on helping. Those who profess to be "fed up" on Belgian Relief talk are the ones who, at every appeal, have stifled their generous impulses, and are feeling more uncomfortable about it every time. : Belgium's need is growing greater every day' as one family after another exhausts its little hoard of money and becomes entirely dependent on the Belgian Relief Fund for daily bread--for life itself. Already these number nearly three millions. : , More is needed than the con- tinued help of those who have been giving on ih along! The big gifts of the rich and well-to-do by no means meet the demands! What the Fund needs -- what these Belgian women and children must: have or face stark starvation--is the additional help of hundreds and thousands who have not yet contributed ! In the hands of the marvelously efficient Belgian ReliefCommission, Seven Cents a Day, or even less, will provide food for one needy woman, child or old man. Can you afford to give that much ? Can you, knowing the need, refuse it ?

Guild, Which occurred during an attack on the Germans on April 9th, Lieut. W. Kent Macnee has written the family as follows: "On the morning of April 9th our company was ordered to charge and take a German position. During the charge Stanley was hit badly with shrapnel. We got his wounds dress- ed at once and sent him right through to the hospital. His wounds were of 80 serious a nature that he passed away in & few hours, as fine a hero as Canada has given sincé we have help ed our Mother Country, d "Stanley was a Lance Corporal in' my platoon, and I never had to worry about him at all. If T wanted work done, and done properly, I gave it to him to do. We buried him yesterday morning, April 10th, in a graveyard about two miles behind the front line, as he is there with other of our boys | whom we have lost. I am looking | after his personal belongings, and will have them sent to you. May God be with you and your family in this very sad and distressing time." The family is also in receipt of | the following letter from Rev. F. George Sherring, chaplain, Church of England, 5th Brigade, Canadians: "It is with deep regret that I have to report to you the death of your son, Stanley Guild, of the 21st Bat- talion, C.E.F. He died of wounds in the ambulance en route to the dressing station on April 9th, and I buried him to-day, the 10th, in the military cemetery. "I have every reason to believe that he sufféred no pain, and was un- conscious, A cross will be erected to mark the grave, bearing the name, date and regiment. Will you please accept my heartfelt sympathy in your sad bereavement." The late Stanley Guild was well- known throughout the city, When the Highland Cadets of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church were being formed, he took great interest in the matter, and collected quite a large sum Jf money to assist in buying uni- forms for them. After their organi- zation, he served for some time as captain of the junior half. He took a prominent part in the presentation made by the cadets to Lord Dundon- ald during his visit to the city. The Highland Cadets were instructed and trained by Capt. Hughes, now officer | commanding the 31st Battalion, and | in which this young Kingstonian was | serving when he met his death. He attended public school and the Colle- giate Institute, and also the Kingston Business College, and was a member of Kingston Lodge, No. 59, 1.0.0.F. W. Hazlett, a Kingstonion serving at the front, writes homes that he vis. ited Stanley's grave, located in the military cemetery. He states that it is marked with a very fine cross bearing his name, date, and regi- ment, and also the three links.

"When one passes down the sev- eral miles of line held by the Cana- dians, and meets in every trench and in every part of the game, hundreds of our best friends from home, one feels that almost every one you would care to know, and whose friendship would be worth having, and who is physically fit, is either already doing his bit hére, in Eng- Men's $5.00 Special .
