Is Very Representative of the Salva- tion Army of Kingston, and Carries Units. A letter received from Valcartier says that the 146th Battalion has the best band at the eastern cimp. It is a purely brass one, and plays Eng- lish music, thus making it the pride of the camp. The 146th band was organized on January 10th of! this year with seventeen bandsmen, the majority of 'whom®are from the Salvation Army of' the city. It has grown steadily until 'now there are thirty- five musicians, and of these twenty- five are Kingstonians, eight are from Ottawa, and one each from Toronto and Montreal. In all the Salvation Army has contributed eighteen of the thirty-five men, while the 14th Regiment has sent three and three -ame from the 43rd Ottawa Regi- ment, It is indeed cpeditable to say that in the seven months since organized not one minor or major military crime has ever been recorded against any of its members, and this is one of the reasons why Lieut.-Col. C. A. Low, commanding the battalion, al- lows the men so many privileges. The bandmaster, Sergeant George Granger, is a Kingstonian, having been .for eighteen years with the Sal- vation Army Band here. He was deputy bandmaster for eight years, and was bandmaster after Bandmast- er Christmas enlisted in the 59th Battalion for service overseas, Sergt. Granger was a member of the Can- adian S.A, 'Staff Band, which made quite a reputation by attending Con- gress in London, England, in 1905, Many a man with a good scheme lacks the required nerve to push it through. ° Dyspepsia sours a let of the milk of human kindness.

GREEKS SLAY SENTRIES. | Canadian Nurse Tells of Perfidy of | Natives at Salonika. | Montreal, Aug. 18.--How he Greeks murdered Allied when they were posted for duty.at Salonika is told by Miss Mary J. Crowe, Montreal, professional nurse, who returned to the city last night frgqm France and Salonika. She has been attached to Scottish = Women's Hospital Ship early in the war. Miss Crowe says that when the British first landed and placed their sentries many of the latter were assassinated by the Greeks, no doubt in the pay | of the Austrians or Germans. These infamous attacks became so common that in_many cases the semitries were doubled. The people, however, had a mortal dread of the British, their Austrians at some points that they can seq the enemy's eyes through the holes if wheervation posts."

K. McKinnon Held A Parade Of the 154th Battalion Among the many checks that the Militia Department keeps on every department is that of having an in- spector to call muster parades to see that the parade states and pay ac- counts are correct. Lieut. McKinnon who is in charge of' the work for Military District No. 3, held a parade of the 154th Battalion and found everything entirely satisfactory. Lieut, McKinnon calls parades at irregular intervals and is thus able to keep a close account of the way the accounts, etc., of the various units are being handled.

In the storm it was badly ripped and torn and tent-makers of the battalion have been busy repairing the damage. In the meantime the soldiers are get- ting anxious for more concerts and entertainments. mr CAPTURE SMELTING IN- DUSTRY FROM GERMANY Great Britain and Australia Have Completed an Impor= tant Arrangement. London, Aug. 18.--An agreement has been reached ' between Great Britain and Australia under which Great Britain contracts to purchase 100,000 tons of zinc concentrates and 45,000 tons of spelter annually from Australia during the period of 'the war and for ten years afterward.

TEN New System For School to be in Use --More Field Work That Will Show Practical Value of Course. Ten officers and thirty N.C.0's. of battalions in various training camps will report to Lieut. V, C. Kerrison at Barriefield Camp on Saturday for a course in the School of Cookery. The officers will be in attendance for a week, while the N.C.O's. will take a course of thirty working days, beginning on Monday. . Object of the plans that will be changed will be. that of bringing into the course a knowledge of interior economy and its relation to the mess- ing of a company. The school will be conducted as a unit with sections of a company. There will be a duty roster with an orderly sergeant by detail as in a company of a battalion Lieut. V. C. Kerrison will command the school and Sergt.-Major Rolfe will be regimental sergeant-major. Each day an officer will be detailed to take command of the company. Another part that will be emphas- ised will be the out-door work ac- po Biden f1 by the school. On every posible occasion the class will cook their meals in the field, so that those in attendance may gain an insight into what conditions face the active service volunteers. Thrown From Motor Cycle: While coming down Princess street on Thursday, Lieut. V. C. Kerrison, Royal Military College staff, had the misfortune to be thrown off the motor cycle he was riding and dashed to the pavement. He was fortunately not seriously in- jured, although his clothes were torn. The cause of the accident was the wet pavement, and one whee] of the motor cycle catching in the groove of the str car rail. Pictures were taken on Thursday morning of Lieut. E. A.
