The Doctor out- lined the Cause of the present Euro- pean crisis, the work being done by Canada and the Allies, and bespoke a loyalty to home and country. The speaker also referred to the loyalty of Orangemen in the present war. and emphasized the fact that a. man rams a better man for belonging to the above Societv, which stood for liber- tx and right, for King and country. A capital address. full of fonts, and at the same time stirring and patri- otic in its nature, was delivered by Bro Wm. Manning, who by figures showed that the Orange Society was doing its share in the defence of the Motherland and that Orangemen were flocking to the standard of Great Britain by the thousands. The speaker closed with the recital of a bit of poetry, which was opportune, and at the some time well given. The musical part of the program 'was lengthy, but was of a. highly in- teresting and entertaining nature. Vocal selections'were rendered by the Misses E. and G. Thornburb'. and Mr. ‘Ford W.
