Egypt and Mesopotamia. and returned to his home in Hanover on Wednesday night of last week, where he will now take a rest. His home town tendered him a big civic re- ception on Thursday evening. His worst experience, he informed us, was at Dar- drmeties where the British and Austra . inns lost ”5.000 men, and all were finary glad to withdraw. For several months t.e wasa doctor on a hospital boat in the Mediterranean. and he also travelled three thousand mice throughout Indo as med- ical officer on troop trains. He was with Gen Maude's victorious British ard Ind. ian forces. about 50.000 in all, in Mesc. pouimia. when they captured Kut-el Amara and Bagdad, and now states them to be entrenched about 90 miles beyond.

We were informed in all seriousness a week ago that the oat-leaves this year have impressed upon them the letter B and that it wasan evil portent of trouble to come for it stood for ' Blood.' We had an opportunity the other day to examine some leaves and sure enough there it was, a good twoline pica capital B arranged on the leat as we have crudely tried to show in the heading above. Just how and why this letter appears impressed there we are at a loss to say,but we have no faith in the tragic explanation for certainly we don't need the omen to remind us of blood being shed. We got into a reverie and wond.ered if it stood for Ball but that did not seem to be Wright, for uo4oubt it is not localized in this riding. -A weird thought came to us that it might mean a vindication of Bob Rogers of a better stamp than that just delivered by the alleged whitewashing commission. We dismissed the thought as unworthy of nature to try any such de- fence From Bob to Borden is only a step and here we imagined we had found it.

Jim was born in Durham about 30 years ago, and grew to manhood here ; ten years ago he went West and was employed on a ranch at Audrie about 20 miles north of Calgary. Three years ago last winter he was home fora few weeks, and this was the last time home folks.saw him. In January 1916 he enlisted in a Calgary battalion, and in February of this year he first saw service in the trenches.
