Five hundred thousand dollars was sent as a gift to the. British Red Cross. An Australian Red Cross hospital was estab- lished at Netley, in addition several hospital units on that! continent. Gifts of motor ambu-l‘ lances have been a favorite meth- ! 0d of Red Cross benevolence as in; Canada. An average of 34,000 gar-i, ‘ments :1 week haxe been dis-: :tributed throuO‘hout the English ’hospitals, and since the Dardan-g !elles operations an immense iduantity of field comforts and lhospital supplies have been senti l1to the Australian troops in the ‘Mediteranean. 111 in all the Australian Red Cross has done iadmirablx during its one year of ‘existence and has recei\ ed offici-‘ al thanks from Queen Alexandra 1 l and the British Red C1 oss. i i Prisoners of War in Germany 1 = l i T. E. Steen, .a Norwegian, is 'leccuring in England under the auspices of the Red Cross upon 'the treatment of prisoners of war iin Germany. The Red Cross is the recognized international guardian of all prisoners of war and is at . present actively engaged in sup- : plementing the meagre German rations. Mr. Steen’s statements 1 show the need of public support 1 in this matter. He states that after 1 mam difficulties he was allowed, lin the company of German offici- =1als, to \isit several piison camps. ‘â€" An incident which recently. 0c- 'disease fin? The first visit was to the campi at Sausson, '22 miles from Berlin,‘ 1x here 15, 500 prisoners were in-I terned in huts. They then slept on mattresses, with two or three blarnkets each, but plank beds were being made. There was a! but used as a theatre, and in an-! other some sculptors, one of them; apupil of Rodin, \xere carving l monuments for dead comrades: The bread was made of ry e, with :25 per cent. of potato flour. \l’hen well made it was nourishing Land not bad, but the quality was [not uniform. and when not knead- ed properly the bread soon he- came mouldy. Each prisoner re- ceived three pounds every five davs. The dinner was a kind of no‘ttage made of salt cod and *barley meal, insipid and not ap- n-etizinro'. Solid food was given ‘nounded or stewed, so that it could be eaten with a spoon. knives and forks not being al- lowed. Hospital arran0'e.ments left i nothinO' to de desired. At Blankenburg, six miles fronr Berlin; Where some 140 officers were confined in a building Well adapted for the purpose, he saw General Leman, the gallant de- fender of Liege, who Was in bad health. and spoke of himself as be- ing “condemned to death.” He also saw General Gordon of the Gordon Highlanders, who was in ill health. His general impression ivas that there had been decided limprovements in the last few {man-thus, and that the German au- {thorities paid great attention to [hygiene A'n officer who has just return- ed from a German camn said that, though condition-s Were much improved, the favorable deseripé tions given and the pictures shown by the lecturer did not apply to all the camps. Hygienic precautions had not prevented ravages of contagious diseases, and there were 2,500 deaths in one camp from typhus. The food was sometimes insufficient; and presents of biscuits and such things were useful. But present ‘conditions were not those of one or two months ago. Epidemics of things of th of prisoners The Rev. Dr. Marsh left on. his holidays on the 20th. He will take two weeks now and the remainder a little later. He is spending a few days in Springhill and Peterboro then will go to Rochester anu New York... " The Rev. Mr. McCullough of Port Hope filled Dr. Marsh’s pul- pit very acceptably on Sunday, and will preach again next Sunday The garden party at Fairbairn on August 19 was a grand suc- cess.‘ Excellent supper and a short. spicy program in the church after supper. The proceeds were very satisfactory. " Mr. Hostetter left Holstein for Winnipeg on the 16th., and will likely be absent till Christmas, or longer. ‘ Mr. Chas. Legge expects to 20 west in a- f ew days. The villagers much appreciate the effort of the Trustees to se- cure the Hydroâ€"Electric for H01- stem.

If anything were the matter with any of the family belongings. from the automobile to the kitchen sink, he could find the trouble and remedy it, before the ordinary hired plumber or me- chanic had even left the ShOp. In camp he was a perfect Wonder at cooking .and of course they never needed a carpenter for off jobs at his house. “How did you ever learn to doi so many kinds of Work ‘2” I in-‘ quired admiringly. “I have yet to hear of the job that you can‘t turn your hand to, besides being a great success in your own partic- ular line of business, which doesn‘t require any manual dexterity at all. It I had a Wireless apparat- us or a flying machine and thev needed tinkering, you are the first Eman I should come to.” The ha'ndierst man laughed. “And I suppose I should dash right in and try it,” he admitted. “It's the way I was brought up. There were. five of us boys at home on. the farm and when mother and father wanted anything done thev inst picked out the nearest ho} and said ‘S-am,’ or ‘Jce.’ or who- ever it happened to be, you go and do- that.’ And it didn't make any difference Whether We'd ever idone it before or not, we had to go, and we did it, too, the very best we could.

I said I couldn’t solder a tin pan once, I remember, and as a result I got a job of taking down and cleaning the next stovepipes.
