George Tervit of the 99th Battery (A.F.), Cards and dancing to the music of the Ranch Boys was enjoyed and George was 'presented with a purse of money, The folldwing address was read; Dear George: Speeches are a little out of my line but I have been asked to make a short address on behalf of our, comninnity who have enjoyed the popplarity of all who have known you. There are many things that could be said but the finest thing we can think of right now is that George has enlisted in the armed forces to fight for you and,ine. He has already, been stationed in places far from home and family and we want to find some concrete, way of expressing our thanks. You all know George and you all like him. Beyond that I can add but little except that I join you in hop- ing that wherever the fortunes of war take him, George will have our assur-, ances of goodwill and our prayers. George has been a Wingham lad and hat managed to gather a loyal circle of friends. I am proud' to be num- bered among those present here to- night and hope .that when. the day conies that George "comes marching home" I will be there also. Before making the presentation of the small gift we have for him, '1 would like to remind those here to drop him a letter once in a while when he is sent to other battlefields. I'm sure as you will realize yourself on thinking it over, that George would appreciate your letters with news of the home town more than any gift we could make, and trust that you will join me in promising him lots of let- ters and lots of news. • And, now I think that without fur- ther talking I'd better get to the bus- iness at hand. George . . . I have here a small token of our esteem and thanks for the pleasure we have had in our association with you. I hope you will find the contents of this purse sufficient to. buy some article you really want. We all -have decided that this was the best way to ensure you something you really want and need. ,Signed on behalf of neighbors and friends. Alex Sproal. Petrie Holmes. Chester Casemore. FREE TRANSPORTATION FOR ARMY RECRUITS Free transportation by bus or rail- way will be extended to prospective army recruits who live some distance from a Canadian Aril-1y enlistment depot, according to an announcement by Major George Tilly, District Re- cruiting Officer for M. D. 1. A "warrant for transport" may be issued to the recruit after recruiting authorities have satisfied themselves, as far as possible, that the applicant is a suitable Candidate. If the candidate is rejected and pro- viding such rejection is due entirely to the requirements of the service, such as medical defects, failure to pass re- quired tests, or if the candidate is enlisted and posted to leave without Pay, a transport warrant may be is- sued for the return journey, Such enlisted personnel, on leave withOut pay, may be furnished with an addit- ional warrant when required to report at the expiration of their leave. "---A number of recruits are also brought to their nearest reerniting centre by mobile recruiting units which tour the countryside.
