R. station, It gives a pitiful instance of German brutality : Dear (jeorge,â€" Well George, 1 am getting along as: well as can be expected. I have got my arm out of the splints now, but. can‘t move it hardly any and the doceâ€" tor was saying that I would not be able to do any more fighting, so it is likely that they will send me back to Canada before long, but I am thankâ€" ful that I get away with my life, as it looked pretty bad for a while the way the shells were coming. There are two in this ward that had to have their leg taken off, so a stiff arm is better than losing a leg and I will be glad when I can get away because I am getting tired of it here, as we are kept in too much. They let a few go down to the town twice a week and the rest of our time is just hanging sround the hospital, Well George, there were about for y of our wounded killed in a barn thas the Germans had captured, as they could not walk and the cermans drove them back and the next day our felâ€" lows eaptured the barn and all of our fellows had the bayonet run through them, so you see it doesn‘t help a person to be taken a prisoner, The only way is to fight until you ave killed ; get as many of them as you can before they get to you, Lanee Corporal J. Lamb, 1645, American Women‘s Hospital, Paignton, 8. Devon, England The following are extracts from a letter received by Mrs cilbert Mcâ€" Kechnie from her friend, Miss M. Maye Moore, of Vancouver, who is nursging at the front. SBhe is in the ceneral Hospital, Rouen, France. ©" We live in huts, nine rooms, opening on a long corridor, two in a room, on eamp beds, brown blankets, no sheets, enamel dishes." © I love every moment of life here.

PDurham Review Our Picture Show JULY 8, 1915 Paignton, June 20, 1915 - ONTARKIU ARKUCHIVES " TORONTO I THE PDUBHAM REVIEW It was our privilege last week in June to visit Hamilton as delegate to biennial meeting of Grand Camp. The attendance was large and interâ€" est in the order very keen, since reâ€" ports of the officers were most opti-! mistic and financial standing amongst: the highest in ali the fraternal orders. At a reception given by the Mayor, we had the pleasure of meetin«@: with Mr J. S. Drysdale and of Le 1i~g h in sing,.. Mr John A. Black, Ci«s ev, also an old Durham boy, was awung the delegates and was appointed Depâ€" uty Grand Chief. for his district. Howeyer it is not of the Order we write. It was the first visit the editor (and wife) had paid to Hamilton, one of our rising Ontario cities and it is a city of which any Canadian may be proud. _ At the western extremity of Lake Ontario ite founders likely dreamed <of its expansion to be the leading city of the Lake, but Toronto eclipsed it. However in recent years there has come a throb of life to Hamilton that bids fair to make it a serious rival to the Queen city. A diive to Builington through the great industrial district is a revelation. New industries are springing up and spaee and facilities for more are abunâ€" dant. The city lying between ‘" the mountain " and the bay is picturâ€" esque in the extreme. Views from the mountain near the Asylum and at the western *‘ Inclined " railway, are not surpessed even by Montreal from its Mount, or by Ottawa from Parliament Hill. Beautiftul homes abound and stree.s and business placâ€" es are clean, attractive and upâ€"toâ€" date, The cute little park called * The Gore " in the centre of the city is a thing of beauty, and the Terminâ€" al Station nearby, from which radiâ€" ate trolley lines i1 various directions is an imposing building. The ride from Toronto to Hamilton and from Hamilton to Grimsby, Beamsville, St. Catherines giyes one a glimpse of the {ruit garden of Onâ€" tario in all its beauty. As we pass the canal, we are reminded of war conditions as we see sentries on guard at all points, and an official wants to know where you are going, when reâ€" turning, your business, birthplace, &c., to make sure no (German or Ausâ€" trian is leaving the country, Niagara Falls on American side is now a city of 40000 we are told and hustling with activity and tourist traffic at this time. We were agreeâ€" ably startled to be recognized by an old Durham pupil, John Barclay, who had not seen us for 22 years, and who left Durham in 1893 at the age of 13, As good fortune would have it, h« is the owner of the best autoâ€" mobile in the tourist trade and with his wife and baby he gave us by far the best ride over Goat Island and on both sides of the cataract we ever enâ€" joyed, chatting meanwhile of old Durham chums and incidents, He has travelled extensively since leavâ€" ing Durham, and is an intelligent, ideal chaffeur. One of the sights of the place is the Shredded Wheat Building, where visitors are welcomed and conducted by a guide through the vast estabâ€" lishment. The whole process of cleaning, shrecding, &c., is seen and explained. Of the Falls nothing new can be said except that the proâ€" cess of attrition has worn them. back considcrably, since we first saw them 48 years ago perhaps 100 feet, Trolley from the Falls to the heart of Buffalo makes an agreeable ride, One is landed on a busy centre and if a stranger, is «pt to be confused for its streets have not the parallelism of Toronto, Officials are most obliging however, cars of a certain nnmber, easily distirguished, run to the varâ€" i0us districts, so if the street and car number are known. the rest is easy, Any car bearing that number takes you there, *"* P«y as you enter" is strictly enforced, no tickets required . The conductor is stationary, near the motor man and gives you change or a transfer,. Entry and exit through doors at same end of car which are controlled by the motorman. There is some strapâ€"hanging but the sysâ€" tem on the whole, works better it apâ€" pears to us than in Toronto, Buffalo is a great ci‘y containing many German citizens, yet the paâ€" pers we saw all lean editorially to the side of the Allies, Of course signed letters for and against Germany, are published and some stuff is pretty hot to British eyes. Commercially Buffalo is profiting by British war orders. * A trip through the Z9o, some of the beautifu! p:rvs, and through the great Larkin estailishment in comâ€" pany with Mrs T. Aitken, (nee Miss Belle McLachlan, Priceville) gave us glimpses of beauty and utility not easily forgotten. The " Larkin idea" includes the conducting of visitors over the immense establishment, containing 64 acres of floor space where many processes of manufacturâ€" ing are carried on, one of the most amazing of which is the manufacture of soap. The sales department though is inferior to Eaton‘s or Simpson‘s of Toronto, The "Larkin idea " provides so thoroughly for the welfare of its thousands of employes, physically, mentally and morally, that no labor troubles ever arise. ercises *‘ where two classes of graduâ€" ates received their diplomas, _A spiendid address was included in a program containing some unique ideas, but we were surprised that in the large and elegant Assembly room not a flag was visible and when the last item was through, dismiâ€"sal took place in silence neither vote of thanks nor elosing anthem relieving the sudden ending. We had the privilege of attending a High School +*Commencment exâ€" In company with Mr Aitken we visited several great public buildings, McKinley monument, &c. The Liâ€" brary with museum and other educaâ€" tional features was a fascinating spot and should not be omitted by visitâ€" ors, â€" Rlevators connect story to story of this immense storehouse of informâ€" Notes by Editor on a Ramble. Among Border Cities $3 g Take a 2 Kodak & With you We left feeling we had just had a glimpse of the big city and took our route home through the picturesque Niagara Gorge, were again quizzed at Lewiston by a war official and crossed Lake Ontario at the sunset hour, its waters like a sea of glass, and a study for poet or painter. We duly reach Toronto, a growing city though at present it is a little ‘‘off color." No fewer than six hosâ€" telries have closed and a roll of unâ€" employed is mounting to ominous proportions. â€" The shadow of the war has a sobering effect but the city 15 still buoyant and hopeful.
