Bruce Walker, Commissioner of In. migration at Winnipeg, announced on Wednesday that arrangements had been made between the Ottawa Gov- ernment,. the Attorney-General of Saskatchewan. and the Attorney- General of Alberta, whereby there would be no prttseeutions for urgent work carried on in the provinces on Sunday in connection with thresh- ing operations. WESTERN FARMERS MAY WORK ON SUNDAY. "Look at Sweden. Norway, Den-' mark, Holland, Belgium, five small kingdoms. everyone of them outraged by the German power.

Fighting for Freedom. "is it really supposed." he asked. "that we have shed our dearest blood by hundreds of thousands, that we have been paying over 25,000,000 a day and shall continue to do so as long as it is necessary, in order to leave Prussia the devilish power she has been in the past? "Why, I venture to say this (I can- not, of course, speak on behalf of the dominion). If there was a Minis- ter (and thank God there is not) so cowardly, short-sighted and imbecile n to conclude a peace of that kind I am afraid our dominions and our Britons beyond the seas would say that a country, so governed, is not a country to adhere to, and we had better find some better statesmen of our own.' In England, according to the rumors to which Lord Rosobery referred, there was a tendency to look only at the present results and forget the primal reasons for which Great Brit. nin went to war. reasons which Lord Grey emphasized in his recent speech to the foreign press. The German Chancellor's expected statement has been foreshadowed as on appeal to reason and humanity on the ground that prolongation of the war could not materially nlter the military position and would only in- crease useless carnage. A despatch from London says: "In lone irresponsible quarters," said Lord Rosebery in a speech at Edin- burgh on Wednesday night, “I hear some babble of immediate peace." Lord Rosebery’s reference was pre- Iumably to rumors which were cub rant in London recently of a move- ment in favor of the consideration of proposals which, according to reports emanating from Germany, Chancel- lor van Bethmann-Holweg intended making public in the Reichstag. N0 “AS YOU WERE” PEACE POSSIBLE Lord Rosebery Says Prussian Military Power Must be Eliminated. "From documents recently found on i prisoners there is no question but that 'there is a great deterioration in the enemy's morale and material, al- though they have been able to main.. tain the number of their divisions. This has been accomplished by with- drawing regiments from old divisions Ito form new ones. You see, in de- ' fence warfare, eight or nine battalions ‘ can form an effective division, where- as eleven or twelve are required for offensive work. On the defensive a smaller number of battalions can hold a great amount of line. This is pos- sible through the use of machine guns. whereas on the offensive the men must be individually armed with rifles. "l am confident the actual new or- iganizntions of the Germans are not 'more than 10 divisions. Others were formed as indicated by withdrawing battalions from old divisions." A despatch from Paris says: Two American aviators have been killed near Nancy, according to a despatch received here from that city. The despatch gives no further details. The, Matin says that the aeroplane con- taining the two Americans capsized while flying over Boudonville plateau, near Nancy. The observer fell out and the pilot, who came down with the machine, was crushed to death under the engine. TWO AMERICAN AVIATORS KILLED IN FRANCE. i "Our recent offensive was not de- lsigned to break through. Its purpose was to relieve the pressure on Ver- dun and kill as many Germans as pos- sible. I will not undertake to say 'whether it will take, thirty years to get the Germans out of France, but the allied strength is constantly grow- (ine and the German strength con- stantly declining. The effect of the allied offensive is accumulative. When the weather permits its resumption the results will be greater than ever. ,Torrential rains in the past week ‘have prevented actions of any great i' consequence. te.l number of prisoners taken on the Vrrdun front since October 24 has reached 6,011. The material captur- ed comprises )5 guns, 5 of which are o," large calibre, 51 trench mortars, 144 machine guns, two wireless plants, and a great quantity of rifles, bombs, shells and various other ma- terial. 6.0ll GERMANS TAKEN IN VERDUN BATTLE. A despatch from Paris says: A French official statement says that, according to late information, the to- "It is no doubt true that the Ger- mans in recent fights have been short of ammunition. During the Winter, with its short days, limiting the use of artillery, they will be able to re- plenish their stores but, despite the bad weather, we have no intention of letting up on them. Our offensive will continue throughout the Winter when conditions are at all favorable. Allies' Olfensive to Continue Whenever Weather at all Favorable. A despatch from London lays: During the course of an interview with the Associated Press correspond- ent on Thursday, Major-General F. B. Maurice, chief director of military operations at the War Offiee, was asked what he thought of Field Mar- shal von Hindenburg's statement that the Entente allies could not break through the western front in thirty years. General Maurice replied: M) WINTER REST (Ili SOMME FRONT Berlin, Nov. I.-The Overseas News Agency reports that three Germnn lubmarines which recently returned to their home ports sank within a few dnyl twenty-one ships of a total of 28,600 tons, in the English Channel. Among the vessels sunk were the I This nervous trouble stayed with him as he crew up, loud and sudden :sounds causing him acute suffering, Jand when the war broke out he was lfaced with a difficulty negligible by most normal men. He was patriotic enough; he wanted to enlist; he did tenlist. But war meant guns. And :guns, modern ones especially, meant "rightful noise. So this young man, lvictim of some trifling kink in tem- perament or brain, did something for which the term heroic might scarcely be an exaggeration; sick of his life- ,long weakness, determined to conquer (it, he joined the artillery. l His Will Was Strong. ' The first time he stood close to a field gun in action he shivered with lapprehension. He gazed at it with awe. What did it signify, this com- 'plex monster of iron and brass, that was to leap into life at the pull of a ‘lanyard, to spit its shell four or five miles, to recoil softly, and settle into stillness once more-all in a second br two? The crashing, instant blast :of the explosion-compared with ‘which the bang of the old-fashioned saluting .cannon that had seared his boyish ears was as a pop-trun-shook ‘him, and he experienced that nasty ("puneh" at the pit of the stomach ’from the concussion, as though some (capable but unscrupulous boxer had 1_ caught him neatly on the solar plexus. ‘He endured his first day's actual fits I ing practice to the end, and then was ,ill for a week with nervous shock. But his will was as strong as ever. The end of the day was swift ind merciful for his comra:les. Death came to them blindly, but ah, so ac- curately, with one shattering report that missed the gun but sent steel and stones flying all around. He fell, he struggled, staggering, to his feet. He Somewhere, miles in front, another little group of men were serving an- other gun, and the result of their work began to come unpleasantly near. They had a grim, methodical, German touch, too, altering their range by a matter of yards every ten minutes, and confining their atten- tion to a few acres of ground. Soon- er or later, thought Georgie-sooner or later. . . . His body-his brain and heart and nerve fibres-in time became used to the carnival of noise which seemed to be his daily portion; his soul, his temperament, his real self never did. He went through gun drill thorough- ly and pyith apparent indifference, but all the time felt himself shrink- ing from the infernal din that the other men accepted as part of their work. And in due course he went to France. l As an infant he cried pitifully at (the sound of a steamer’s whistle; as 'a youngster he held in abhorrence Ethe toy pistols with percussion-caps .which gave his companions such {thrills of joy; thus those who de.. Ylighted in the arts of teasing were gable to inflict upon him iiendiish tor- ‘tures. The bursting of an inflated f paper bag, for example, close to his ‘ear would make him tremble and grow pale-a fact which could not be lost sight of by the nerveless bullies lot the school.

Half the fun in this world comes from unexpected sources and half the sorrow from planned joys that didn't, materialize. It was in the year 101 that Trajan led his legions forth from Rome to conquer the Dacians, whose country comprised the provinces of Moldavia, Wallachia and Transylvania, which the Roumanians are now endeavoring to reunite under one sovereign. Da- cia's warrior king, Decebalus, defend. ed his land so well that Trajan had to start a second campaign four years la- ter before Dacia would acknowledge Roman rule. The wall that bears the Emperor's name is an earthwork ex- tending from the Danube above Czer- navoda to Constanza on the Black Sea. It is no great rampart, being just an earthen ridge from eight to fifteen feet high, but the Turks defend- ed it against the Russians in 1854, and it may be useful in the present Dobrudja fltrht. Other traces of Tra- Jan are still to be found in the mili- tary road he constructed along the banks of the Danube, including a com- memorative tablet and the piers of a bridge he built across the river near Orsova--the important point from which the Roumanians have driven the Austrians back into their Banat province. And there the war now bridges more than 1,800 years. The longer the engagement ' the shorter the married life. i "Didn't seem to make any noise, 'that last shot," he murmured. "Fun- ny, I could have sworn I fired it." And then he closed his eyes and floated into a lovely, exquisite dream sea of silence. _ At home, with a decoration for dis- itinguished conduct to his credit, loud sounds or whispers are same to him now, though a clever doctor hopes to do something in the matter. But he is not unhappy, for. as his mother said, "He never was a noisy boy." Places That Marked the Beginning of History. The great war thrusts its tongues of flame into scenes that mark the be- ginnings of human history and the foundations of religions and empires. In this moving picture our attention has been called to the traditional site of the Garden of Eden, to rivers that are supposed to have watered the earthly paradise, to Mount Ararat, Mount Sinai and Mount Lebanon, to relies of the Assyrian, Babyonian, Egyptian, Parthian and Roman cm- pires, and to places that are closely connected with the rise of Judaism, Loroastriunism, Christianity and Ma- hometanism. It is a little world, and war can but tread on ancient ground, Not long ago we were reminded by the fighting at Ctesiphon, on the Tigris, that there the Parthians defeated Tra- jan, and now comes the mention of Trajan's Wall in the Dubrudja as a battle line, with the Russians and Roumanians on the north and the Germans and Bulgarians on the south. looked " the men who sixty seconds before had been toiling with him, laughing, joking . . . he looked away. The trun-the gun was there, loaded, but the breech, that wonderful, beau- tiful back door that with a turn of the wriest was closed and locked against incredible pressures, stood open. He stumbled to the gun. It was queer, but there was a curious little ringing in his ears, a small sound that trailed sway and lost itself down' long ave- nues of uncanny silence. He swung the breech with all his strength; it locked with the familiar snug clash and click. He sent that final shell shrieking on its journey, and dropped. “I any, X battery . . . hello, hello} . . . are you there? _ You've done the L trick . . . that last one landed square t on their emplacement . . . are youl there? Hello . ' . hello . . ." [ No answer came to the advanced observer's call. But Georgie, lying! limply by X battery, turned over and looked vaguely at his gun, squuritur, on its haunches, with its gaunt nose‘ in the air as though wondering at the , sudden stillness.

The evening's enter- r tainment is about to begin. On a nar- t row platform " one end of the hall is ; a piano. The pianist ilogs the keys, and above the babel of talk sounds r some “rag-time" melody, once popu- , lar, now forgotten or despised at home.

We sing a hymn, for choice a very sentimental hymn. We say a short prayer, often as rugged and uncon- ventional as the entertainment itself. Then "The King." In these two words we announce the national anthem, and the men stand tstiffly to attention while they sing.

The end of the entertainment is set to allow time for a final cup of tea or at least a glass of milk, The last half hour is a busy one for the ladies behind the counter in the outer hall.
