Just afew lines to let you know that I am still in the land of the liy- ing. In fact, I weigh more now than I ever did before, so you see we are not starving yet. Well mother, 1 have been up the line five months now and the time has not seemed so long, although there were some days 'that I suppose we will be in places this summer that will be just as warm as the ones we have left, andy we may be lucky at that. We are out onrest for a few days but expect to go back up the line in a day or two. We have had a good time while out on rest-- nothing to do but eat and sleep, and we sure had a lot of both. I had beefsteak and eggs for dinner yes- terday--the first steak I have tasted since I left home--had almost for- gotten how it tasted. Must tell you of a little instance--what we call luck out here. Four of us had a dug-out about five hundred. yards from the gun and the first night we went back to go to bed, a lot of our kit had been stolen; so the next morn- ing we decided ta carry our kit to the guns with us and take it back at night. We put it all in a heap a short distance from the gun, but Fritzie relieved us of the trouble of carrying it back that night by. drop- ping a shell on it and we have not seen it since. So we might as well left it in the dug-oty fop someone to steal. I have not seen Perce Spen- cer as yet, but if I knew what bat- talion he was in I could look him, up. Let me know his address in your next letter. I suppose the news in the pa- pers looks good to the people at home these days. I know it doas to us 'here and the chief question is "When is the war going to end?" Well mother T guess that I have told you all the news for this time so will close. From your loving son.

The necessity on the part of the Dominion and Provincial ~ Govern- ments in the matter of co-operating with the medical fraternity, with a view to eradicating as far as possible the spread of venerial diseases, was strongly emphasized recently in a resolution passed at the conference of the Ontario Medical Association, It was the opinion of the meeting that the time had arrived when drastic action should be taken along certain lines to protect the feeble minded, a very large percentage of whom suf- fer from the ill-effects of the disease. On Friday evening last a number of the senior pupils of Miss Lotta White's music class met at her home and gave a farewell programme for Miss Frieda Pauli, who had received her entire musical education with this class, receiving her A.L.C.M. last mid- summer, Piano solos and duets were given by the Misses Goldie and Gertie Zimmermann, Gertrude Engeland, Nettie Henry, Olive Kelterborn, Olive and Mabel Roe, Lizzie Roese, Lena Schmidt and Lillian Atkin, Miss Pauli and Miss White opened with a brilliant duet, a variation of God Save the King, after which all sang the National Anthem. Miss Lottie Gow- irg sang twice and Miss Vida Craw- ford gave two readings after which Miss White made a few remarks on the pleasant relations always existing between all of the class and Miss Pauli. Eileen Rosamond presented her with the coin class pin. The agitation against horse-racing is making itself felt in various quar- ters, and it seems pretty certain that definite action will have to be taken. because of the opposition to the gambling associated with its prac- tice. The time is past for any un- real arguments based, on the duty of maintaining the breed of thorough- bred horses, because in reality this means a plea for gambling. No one wishes to stop, or even check, the pro- per progress of horse-breeding, and certainly there is no desire to hinder legitimate sport. The simple and significant truth is that horse-racing wherever it is found, is associated with betting and gambling, and but for this it would not occupy any-, thing like the attention it gets to- day. The Churches of Canada are be- coming more and more alive to the evils of race-tracks due to their as- sociation with gambling. and the call is imperative on all who are concern- ed for purity and truth of character, to oppose in every way the evil of betting, because of its unfairness, un- righteousness, and deadly influence on life. megaphone which the colonel was ac- customed to use in addressing the battalion on parade, "Hello, Gerrys |!" he called out, "I'm thinking it isn't information ye want, but divarshion: but 'tis information I'll be after giv- ing ye all the same, Later on we'll be sending ye some fun that'll make ye laugh at the other side of yer mouths, The last we heard of Car- son, he was prodding the Government like a very devil to put venom into their blows at ye, and more power to his elbow while he's at that work, say we.
