When the last shattering stroke of the eleventh hour resounded from Westminister Tower on -that mem-| orable night, Aug. 4, 1914, it set up reverberations which were heard to| the farthermost limit of the British | empire.

The echo of Britain's call to war toughed Canada's shores and was re-ewed back almost Ingtantan- eously. But into the interior of the north-land that call took longer to penetrate. There on the Kattle river, a gang of men were hewing out the way for the Hudson's Bay railroad. The lute fall mail deliv- ery brought the news that the world was at war. James threw down his engineer's tools and started for Winnipeg. Tait was a Scotchman. He was born in Dymfrieshire in 1888. He was the second son of the late James B. Tait, of Maxwelltoh. He attended Laurieknowe school and Dumfries academy successively. Later Le served for five years in the Im- perial Yeomanry. Three wf Tait's brothers have seen active/service in this war, two in France and ene in Mesopotamia. After coming Canada in 1911 the future Vz OC. started in at his profession of archi-|«w tect, which he had learned under his father's direction, in Scotland, But the call of the wild lured him to the barren tracts of the new land, and he joined a survey party for the Hudson's Bay railroad. On his arrival in Winnipeg Tait received a commission in the 100th regiment, Winnipeg Grenadiers, and was gpd to the 100th Battalion. While ning, both in Canada and England, he received high commen- dation as an officer. His darly training and natural beni made him an athlete of many parts. At Se- ford Pp he won the revolver championship. Before he left Can- ada he did much work at recruiting, speaking at many public mestings.

Tait again distinguish- ed himself. It was after this en- gagement that he was recommended for a bar to his Military Cross and promoted to the rank of captain. With his rare gift of imagery, Capt. Tait described the night before Passchendaele in one of his letters He tells of the men of the Canadian battalion digging themselves trenches in the brillant moonlight. The men worked quietly and steadily. Every once and again one of them would roll over, hit by a German sniper who was stationed in a blasted free. In spite of the cold and the other dis- comforts of the place, Capt. Tait, says that 'there was no other place in God's fair world," where he would rather be. The same gilt of descrip- tion is shown in an article which he wrote after Vimy ridge, and which was published in an English maga- zine. During last summer, when the leaders- of our army were making their heroic and successful effort te bring victory and peace, Capt. Tait took part in all of the big engage- ments.
