Bomâ€" dardier Milton Mills, to give our young friend his full title. was the Urst speakâ€" er and, the Standard says, was tenderâ€" ed a hearty ovation. We quote from the Standard ; "In quiet and modest manner Bbr. Mills told of his trip with the 7th Field Battery, now the tenth, to France and of the encounters which the battery exâ€" perienced. The battery left for Valcarâ€" tier on the 28th of August and on the 26th of Septemper for Quebec. _ Then came the trip to England and arrival at Salisbury Plains. On the 4th of March the Battery went into their first action at Neuve Chappell. Bbr. Mills missed the gas attack of the 22nd because he was at the waggon lines. â€" It was on this notable occasion that theammunition had to be taken to the guns by hand and when Major King reversed his guns, he gave it to the QGer mans both ways. In the battle of Loos the Brigade of which the 10th Battery was a part, was the only Canadian unit in action. The Somme battle, is accorâ€" ding to Bbr. Mills, the hottest and most interesting battle of all. Itissome place. The bombardment of the Germans, the returned hero said, was very heavy, but the bombardment of the Allies was far heavier. "We can and are sending over the lines 10 shells to their 1. In closing Bbr. Mills stated that the food and the conditions at the front were even better than one really expected. Archdeacon Perry asked the speaker if he had hâ€"ard of the Angel of Mons. Bbr. Mills had heard of the Angel and believed it to be a divine manifestation which saved the day for our soldiers."

Town Council and School Board bave the power. Wingham gave over $5000 to the British Red Cro«s, leading all Oatario tow ns of or near its size, Here is something from an exchange for some of our young ladies and young men to ponder over : A woman who can bea member of a chnrch choir for ten years and never had a squabble, would makea fine wife for any man. The council of Elderslie, its Clerk and Treasurer, are, all seveno, abstainers from alcoholic beverages and not one of them use tobrcco. An exchange says; These days it is quite a rarity \to meet men who do not smoke, and when the whole cabinet of Riderslie, fjuciuding the Chancellor of the Excheâ€" quer and Secretary of State, refuse to . bow the knee to Quaeen Nicotine or King Baccus, it is, indeed, something anique. The whole bunch happen to be Presbyterians. The fact that they are nonâ€"drinkers and nonâ€"smokers is not a passport for them to heaven, but it certainly will not hinder them in their pilgrimage to the Celestial Kingdom.

Milton Mills Honored n motion of Jno McQuaker and Dr Mearns a committee was appointed to draft a resolution of thanks to the Mayor and citizens of Amherst for the splendid hospitality they showed to the 147th while in their town.
