HILL'S PLEA FOR CANADIANISN Protests Against the Influence - Exerted on Canada by the United States. - " A plea for sturdy Canadianism was voiced by Brig.-General F. W. Hill, speaking at the regular meeting of the Rotary.Clubp on Thursday. Gen- eral Hill protested against the con- scious - and uncomseious influence which was being exerted on Canada by the United States and he regrét- ted that in England everyone from this continent is known as an Am- erican and no distinction fs made by the general public between resi- dents of Canada and of the United States. The speaker said that he know and Jiked the American people and that the example set by Canada and the United States.for friendliness was a great factor in the _ peace of the world, but at the same time he could not "help feeling that the American people liked what the Canadians possessed better than the Canadians themselves. ' He instanced how Canadians "to1- lowed. the American spelling ¢ of words rather than sticking to the form current in England, and he de- clared that the Americans were try- ing to stamp the English language with something of their own. Am- erican magazines and publications were doing much to unconseiously influence opinion in Canada and he urged Canadians to withstand this. The motion picture produced in the United States but exhibited in Can- add was also mentioned as a factor in the spread of the American pro- poganda. General Hill urged his auditors to stick to the old traditions rather than adopt everything mew, for' he said the traditions of their fore- on industry, jaw. In concluding General Hill spoke of the National Defence Force and it declared that it would be as logical to do away with the police force as it would be to abolish the Canadian National Defence Force. Such 'a ll | torce did not mean that Canada was | looking for trouble, he said,.but it gave her a national consciousness. || Canadians did mot wish to hide be- il | hind someone else, for if they did il | they were not worthy of their sons | who died overseas. Rotarian A. D. McConnell moved I a vote of thanks to General Hill, and | Rotarian A. N. Lyster seconded it.

The Whig telephones were kept buzzing last night-as-a result of the big. hockey match in Toronto, be- tween Kingston and Owen Sound; for the Junior O.H.A. honors. The Whig {ng out particulars of the game, and that the fans were interested in the big stryggle was shown by the num- ber of ealls received from the start of the game till the finish.

The news of the victory was re- ceived with great rejoicing by the tans, who were unable to go to To- ronto to see fhe final match.

"Well done, Kingston," was the general slogan following the final score; and the juniors well deservé all the praise that was bestowed on them for winning the honors, for it is fifteen yeard since-Kingston, the city that originated hockey, won the junior championship.
