The spirit of the competition be- tween the units all organized at the same time will play a great part in attaining this end. No one realizes this more than the battalion officers now. They know that they will be up against other units that have had exactly the same difficulties to over- come that they have. All were au- thorized within a few days of each other. The districts allotted to each were according to the best ex- pert advice exactly similar in advan- tages and disadvantages, there was no partiality shown, and it will sim: ply be a case of the best battalion winning. With the eagle eye of the ever- watchful officers of the headquarters staff always noting the work being done and the progress being made, every officer, N. C. O., and man at Barriefield Camp will have to give all possible energy to the making of his battalion a unit worthy of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. When one considers the very im- portant part that training takes in the making of a soldier or the organ- izing of fighting units for service at the front, the necessity of a good system can be seen particularly when the men are separated into detach- ments of usually fifty men each. The great tendency with small bodies of men widely separated is to have the training run on what the lieutenant or other officer as the case might be considers in his limited personal opinion to be the best. At Barriefield all this will be changed. There will be nine bat- talions of 1,100 men each working towards the one goal, that of effi- ciency. Colonel T. D. R. Hemming, D.0.C., will be in direct and intimate touch with the actual working con- ditions, and be within a few minutes' walk of where the men are actually doing the work. With this will be the additional advantage to the offi- cers of the battalions in having the headquarters so-near that it can be used as an information bureau. There is a handful or men in the army Who seldom shoulder a gun, And it's little that's known them : When everything's said and done; And they try to escape any 'notice As they quietly slip off to war, For they never expect a send-off In the Army Service Corps. about They don't aim at capturing prison- oners, Or taking the ememy's flag, But they serve in an humbler voca- tion For the sake of the grand old rag.

This announcement was made at a meeting of the Quebec Foot- ball Association by Craig Campbell, President of the D, Fr R., and means that cancellation of all Connaught Cup games as well as the Interna- tional match between Canada and the United States. It' is understood that either Shock- er, °the former Ottawa pitcher, or Plerey, who was with the Vernon club of the Pacific Coast League last year, will be obtained from the New York Americans by the Toronto Leafs. Shocker worked against the Leafs at the Island last year, and during his five innings on the wnound shaped , like a promising twirler.

The officers of the new Kingston batteries replacing those of the 13th Brigade going to Petawawa are ex- pected to " be appointed in the near future.

"Newsy" Lalonde is shaping up well with the Nationals despite his long service on the lacrosse sward. Newsy has played everywhere from goal to inside home, and has made a success of every position. Pittsburg acted like a tonic on ,| John McGraw's New York Giants. After only 'being able .to win two games in fifteen against' the eastern club, Muggsy,s team drift into Pi- rateville and won three straight. John' McGraw, of the New York Giants, never tires of attacking the 21-player limits, which is in force in the National league. He laid upon it the blame for the Giants' failure to win last season. No soon- er had his men dropped a couple of games this spring than he came out with another attack upon it. He claims that the American league managers have a big advantage over the National because they are allow- ed to carry 25 men, McGraw might as well quit whin- ing and yelping, for the chances are a National league club carry more players than are allowed it at present writes Ralph 8S. Davis, in the Pittsburg Press. Twenty-one men are enough for all practicaly purposes, especial- ly in view of the fact that the league allows a suspension list, on which may be carried all incapacitated players.

In this connection it is published that no authority will subsequently be granted to cover such] purchases, and the expense will have to be borne by the "commanding offi- cer who incurred same." : On Thursday Lieut.-Col.

One night recently, while a de- tachment of the new army were camping at Aldershot, it was very cold. One man who shivered could not find any of his outer clothes. So he went from one place to another asking if anyone knew where they were, "H-h-has a-a-anyone s-seen my b-blanket?" He was told that no one had. ~ 'H-h-has a-a-anyone s-seen m-m-my t-tu-tunic or t-t-trous- ers?" "No!" The man scratched his head for a moment. *"W-w-well, I'm g-g-glad th-h-that I h-have the| military units in: Toronto. E-g-got a w-w-warm p-p-pair of b-braces on." World of Sport lowed only twenty-seven men to face him. He also fanned eighteen. Not a man reached first base and only two succeeded in hitting the ball out of the infield. They fell in fielders' hands. The score was 3 to 0. Lance of Pennington also pitched good ball, allowing only four hits. Three errors were made behind him, however, Harry Lajoie is playing fine ball for the Athletics this year and has been of considerable help in winning] several games for the Mackmen., Although almost two hundred of its members are in khaki the Winni- peg Cricket Association at its annual meeting decided to continue opera- tions this season, Judging from the strength that has been disclosed in the games played to date a team that can win ninety games this season will come very close to carrying away the American League pennant, If the Boston Red Sox repeat as pennant winners Carrigan's pitchers must do wonderful work. Outside of the box the team 'does not shape up as unusually strong. It is weak on the bases and none too strong with the stick. "Nick" Bawlf, who played hockey with the Shamrock N. H.
