the only goal •made in the first half,
and secured the first tall} in the
second period. Hensall succeeded in
marking, up one shortly after, out

AN A.D.MIRABLE ADDRESS. — A
fair sized audience only attended the
Patriotic Lecture and concert in the
Jame. Street Methodist church Fri-
day evening last, under the auspices
of thu Women's Patriotic League of
Exeter The Lecture on "Methods of
Modern Warfare" by Rev. D. W. Col-
lin.. 'was most interesting and in-
structivrewhile the solos by Miss N.
Carling, Miss E. Follick and Mr. R.
Philip:were very pleasing. The
Presentation of a wrist watch 'ay
Reeve Taylor to Private Mallett was
also a pleasing feature, The pastor
of the church, Rev. McAlister, filled
the chair in his usual able manner.
The ordinary reader of war news has
the idea that attack, defence, alit -
post and scout work, are more or leas
of a haphazard and chance nature, 'and
battle. are won and lost by virtue of
numbers tike skill of a great ereneral,
the strength of fortifications ar the
nature of the ground on which the
battle. takes place. These, while hav-
ing a strong bearing on the result of
the engagement, are, by no means the
only factors, .bearing on the result,
Little on nothing is left to chance,
Th` minutest details are looked after

duties of trench work; skill in taking

These paints were made •,leas and
interesting to the audience by Mr.
Collins who also compared and ':on-
trasted the tactics of the different
nation.: in the great struggle now
going on. The address in every way
was a most admirable one, end the
only regret is that the number of
those hearing it was not much larger.
