HEMMING RE- GARDING DEMOBILIZATION The Greatest Possible Reduction in the Forces With the Least Possi- ble Delay Will Be Aimed At, 2 The order calling the demobiliza- tion of all troops in M.D. Neo. 3 has been received at local Neadguarters and Brig.-General Hemming, CIM{G}, has called a conference of the heads of all establishments for 7.00 o'clock this evening with a view to the im- mediate compliance with the order from Ottawa. The greatest possible reduction will be aimed at with the least pos- sible delvy, but it is recognized that some of the service units will have 10 be retained and their strength will depend upon the demands likely to be made upon their service. For in- Stance the Army Service Corps, Army Medical Corps, Army Dental Corps, Veterinary Corps and Engineers will be required for a very considerable time---just how long will depend up- on the rapidity with which the troops return to Canada and the number assigned to this distrist for disposal. The conference will determine what establishments can be abso- Iutely dispensed with. Among the depot battalions of the Eastern Oon- lario regiment, situated at Belle- ville and Ottawa, will likely be the lirst- to disband. The 3rd battaljou C.G.R. will be retained as a demo- bilizing unit and the present staff will doubtless be reained for some cQusiderable time in order to carry out the discharge of the returning men, The Royal School of Artillery has already been closed, It is most like- ly that the RC.H.A. being a per- manent force, will remain as a train- ing unit and that the depot battéry will go out of existence with the infantry depots.

[i CONFERENCE i CALED) --- my ENTRAR \ At the Grand The offering at the Grand last! evening was worthy of special men- | tion Henry B. Walthall had thel titular role in the Jatest Paralta play, "With Heops of Steel," and the; capacity house were all thoroughly delighted with his talented acting. Mr. Walthall was remembered by many for his wark in "The Birth ef a Nation," where he played a leading | part and his portrayal of a western character in "Hoops of Steel" gave him plenty of opportunity to display by his forceful acting the qualities that made him such a popular star. The story dealt with a ranch owner, who, sooner than see his name flaunt- ed in the dust, started out to redeem his honor. How he succeeded made a very interesting story, and although it was a fiery western tale there was also a pretty little romance running through it. Other ims on the bill were the Pathe News, a good two- reel drama, and last but not least was Billy West, the funniest man on earth, in "The Candy Kid." which is sald to be his best comedy An aet of vaudeville consisting of the Todéscag in a bicyele novelty com- pléted the best programme seen here in many days. It will be repeated to-night and also to-mororw, both matines and night. TT THERA At Griffins' Presenting what may be perhaps his most ambitious screen offering, David Wark Griffith, dis- played his splendid photoplay "The Great Love," which deals specially with the great awakening of the wealthy and exclusive classes of England to the tremendous needs of the" war, with great success at this termed oetng | JN 4 HERE theatre ~ yesterday. For the first time in the history of motion pictures Mr. Griffith portrays in this photo- play the activities of the leisure classes of Great Britain during the world war; their splendid and un-! selfish labor in caring for convales- cent soldier, and their innumerable sacrifices. It shows not merely ae- tors made up to represent these people, but the people themselves, the very flower of England's finest womanhood engaged in the noble task of succoring the brave sons of Britain, France and the Allies of all the loyal nations, in their time great suffering and sacrifice. Practically the same cast screen artists, who were seen "The Birth of a Nation." and "Hearts of the World," appear Tn "The Grea Love," OPPOSED TO USING ANY GERMAN GOODS {The Local Woman's National | Council Executive Passes | a Strong Resolution. {| At the executive meeting of the Bat- | 1ocal bramen of the National Counoll jor Women held on Saturday, Novem- i following in | cent epidemic of influenza in | city. ber 16th, in the Council Chamber the resolution 'was passed: "That this local council expresses field.
