He said that flying in a stiff wind is dangerous and not commonly done by experienced men "Is it true that the Royai Flying Corps have a new machine that has proved 'marvelous in its work?" was the last question put to him. It was absolutely quiet in the smoker when fhe lieutenant stood up and walked out of the compartment, leaving be- hind him the words, "Excuse me, gentlemen, but after that question I prefer leaving, to lying." WAS HELD IN QUEEN STREET METHODIST CHURCH Over Two Bright Young Soldiers Who Had Made the Supreme Sac- nfice--Other Church Services. A memorial service was condueted in Queen street Methodist church on Sunday morning for Stanley R. Bryon and Miller Briden, young sol- diers who had fallen in battle. Rev. J. D. Ellis spoke feelingly of the men paying" fitting tribute to their worth. Capt. Fairful, a returned soldier, now with the Y.M.C.A. and Military Hos- pitals Commission spoke In a splen- did way of the Canadians at the front. They worthily represented' the Dominion.

A Helpful Sermon, A sermon of great beauty and in- spiration was given in the First Bap- tist church on Sunday evening when Rev. J. K. Fairful spoke from Psalm, XXIII. Though the captain as a Young Men's Christian Asso- ciation representive was through the campaign at the front, he did pot tell his congregation much of the Kfe there. He dealt more with the need of confidence of the people as their Maker to bring peace back into the world and to take care of them in this great crisis, The captain spoke of all Christian people being God's redeemed ones, as the sheep belong to the shepherd, Christ bought his people by His own sacrifice. - As the His | always.

I was up recently and met with quite a scare when the machine dropped in- to an air pocket, but I have been going up and will go up every tim I get the opportunity." "Do you fly in the rain?" "What height do you fly at?" "Is it cold up there?" "'Are you frightened?" were a few of the many questions thrown at him. He stated that there is no object to be gained by flying in the rain because one cannot gain information and only take a chance of getting lost. The average machine flies about 6,000 feet in the air. It is cold--mighty cold he said--at times. Perhaps for a few minutes) some people might be frightened, but it is never noticed. He was asked ng! believer in medicines, but I feel that Mrs. M. O.
