I had there every comfort, I did not lack for food, The cooking was a marvel, And everything was goad, The buds were soft and downy. I did not lie awake; The coffee was delicious— Like mother used to make. Nobody tried to sting m9 On prices for my board; Mosquitoes didn't bite me, No Irate hoarders roared. l motored out quite often At very slight expense; I was quite close to tennis, And golfing was immense. Yee, 1 will epend the summer Right where I spent it last year— I'm going to stay at home, LETTER FROM THE FRONT - Tho following letter was written by Hugh Russell, somewhere in Trance, to his friend, Graham Wray, Turn - berry,. Dear Graham:— It seems a long time since I heard from you I suppose you will be very busy these days studying. I hope you pass your examination alright. I haven't received a letter front Cecil for a long time, Surely I answered his last letter, If I didn't I must have forgotten all about it. Well l am still going to it the same as ever, We have been up against it pretty hard this last three months. The Germane have tried hard many times to get through here, but it was no use, instead we gained some ground from them. They have been quiet since the French and Britieh started to drive them back, I guess they had enough to do there without bothering ue. The allies are certainly giving it to them now. If they do as well for another couple of months, I think the Germane will have to give it up. We are in billets just now enjoying a few days' rest. It's not much of a rest though; for they keep us drilling all the time, We had a horse show the other day, just think a real horse show within range of the German gune. The show was for the transports of this brigade, and was held at our camp. There were about two hundred horses and although the men had only about three days' notice and had to do their regular work. They had everything in good shape, it was a fine day for the show, and the first horses entered the ring at 2 o'clock. They were heavy draught teams. The winners were decided on points, and the judge examined ;horses, wagons and harness thoroughly, taking every strap off to look under the buckles. The twenty-first took first prize for this event. There were nine other events, so we had a long afternoon of it and it would take too long to describe each event in detail. I will just give you the results, The nineteenth took six first prizes and two seconds. The first prizes were for light draught team, light double team, and light group, and heavy groug, one mule and mule race, The seconds were for heavy draught team and driving contest. They also got the Championship Cup, given by the Bri- gadier for the winner of the most prizes. There was one other event for officers chargers in which tient Wigle took first prize. We had two pipe bands, and a brass band, also a bugle bands so we were well supplied with music. We had a Charlie Chaplin in the ring that could make everyone laugh. So altogether we had a very pleasing afternoon. I am cgetting used to these Belgian horrors now. I 'was plowing and• billing up potatoes the other day. The farmers are all busy here with the hay. I. went out and pitched on a couple of loads one dal- and 1 dont don't think I ever sweat so much before. There will be a good crop here this year. The grain is all headed out and stands about four feet high. I never saw such a crop before, Well Graham, I guess I had better quit you will be sick reading this al- ready; So hoping to see you all some day soon I will say good-bye just now, From your old friend Hugh P. S. I am sending you a drawing, that I did in the trenches one day. Belmore Sergt. W. G. Abraham who has been visiting friends here, left on Saturday for Camp' Borden. A Miraculous Escape.

We feel that you boys, having enlisted in "Huron's Own Battalion", will with the other nine hundred of the Flower ,of Huron's young manhood, bring honor and fame to not only our own County of Hur- on, but also our Country and Empire You are inspired by the most pure and noble spirit which has ever fired the breast of man, for greater love had no man than this"that a man lay down his life for his friends", having shown your willingness to, if needs be to mingle your blood with the Empire's beat, in the interests of civilization and humanity. We regret that we cannot in a more tangible way express 'to you our keen appreciation of your actio,. in taking your lives in your hands and going forward to protect our homes, our property and our lives. It will be our sincerest wish and our most ardent prayer that you will return to your homes in safety and then only will we be able to show our pride and admiration for you. In the meantime we ask you to accept these bibles, coins and mirrors as a token of our esteem and love, and with it we all wish you God speed and a safe return.
