TO � VALENCIENN BRITISH TRIBUTE .TO CANADA'S GLORIOUS WAR RECORD Splendid in •--, Valor in p d Spirit, in V for and righting qualities, Says Englieh- nlen Serving With C.E.I. The Sphere, one of London's fam- ous illustrated weeklies, publishes an elaborate record of the Canadian Expeditionary Fora. It is called. "'From Valeartier to Valenciennes," A record of the glories of Canada's ciw;ilian Army." It is written as a tribute from an Englishman serving With the C.E.F. Some quotations are here made from it: The great Dominion lived spacious- ly apart, $enure in her immensity, and immuno from the entanglements of European strife, The hover of war struck without warming. And 'When war carne to England, the Englishman looked questioningly at his brothera beyond the seas. In the past there had been no little flag - wagging and more than enough talk that "blood was thicker than water." But now? Now that England had need of her sons beyond the seas, would they answer Mier call? So far as Canada went there 'MS no need to call. With unerring instinct, the Dominion realized that this was a fight of right against might—o£ autocracy agtainst democracy. - With spontaneous unity, the people of Can- ada arose and threw all they had into. the Motherland's lap. The first of their gifts, apart from their love and their loyalty and their whole -hearted aid, was a full division equipped and aimed for the field --a gift bestowed by cable. On October 14, just over two months later, the first contingent, 30,000 strong, landed on the shores of Eng- land. Even so, Canada's declaration that she would raise half a million men, was accepted with reserve. But in 1918 that great pledge was on the eve of fulfilment. Upwards of 400,- 000 Canadians had some over seas, while 70,000 more were in the train- ing camps in Canada. And the glory of the Dominion's .civilian soldiers who have fought lin France and Flanders is deathless, if the price they have paid for it is high --very high. Over 65,000 of them sleep in alien soil, 200,000 of them are casualties. As to the manner in which they have fought, the record of ten thousand decorations, .includ- ing fifty, V.C.'.sits witness that they have fought well. Ypres to Cambrai.

A Phrase Frequently Occurring in Treaties Afterwards Broken. One spot seems to have been over- looked in the search for the thing that might have prevented the present war. The makers of most of the peace treaties that have taken their place in history most certainly have done their duty in this direction. in fact, a glance over the first article of most of these treaties brings more than a smile to the lips of the reader. They read like a joke. Short and to the point is the first article of the Russo-Turkish Treaty of Constantinople of 1879, "Peace and friendship shall henceforth exist be- tween the two empires." The Treaty of Vienna of 1866, signed by Italy and Austria, presented the same sentiment in many more words. If sprung at the right time they would cause a laugh. Article one here reads, "There' shall be, from the date of the e armies was enormous. The the p Lured 26,630 prisoners, 501 guns,' 3,000 machine guns and mortars, and recovered 96 villages and 169 square miles of beleaguered France. During the period alone the corps engaged 47 enemy divisions, of which 40 were fully and seven partially engaged. From the first the Canadians were "shock troops." And the marvel is how these purely civilian soldiers,l men with no military traditions, ad- apted themselves to the complex me- theds of modern warfare. Genera Currie, their leader in the field was himself a Canadian business man be- fore the war; to -day he is recognized as . one of the most 'able corps coni - menders in the British. Army. Again, apart from their capacity for leadership in the field and a gen- ius for stern and brilliant fighting, their gift of adaptability made them masters in other .(branches of modern war. The Canadian system of light railways was a signal triumph over the motor in bringing up supplies or in following up a push.

In the • summer of 1'918, too, great forest fires broke out behind the lines in France. The French, unable. to cope with them, called in the Cana- dians. Miles of roaring furnaces were extinguished and the thanks of the French Government was the Forestry Corps' reward. Nor should one forget the Canadian Corps .Salvage Company. It •saved material to the value of nearly $20,- 000,000. Such, in brief, is the proud record of the Cemadiansa But their spirit and their purpose are prouder still. Two on the greatest poems in the English language were written (by churns competing against each other in friendly rivalry. They undertook to: wort. at these poples for ox months ,and then compare results. Keats went to the Isle of Wight and wrote "El dyleion," and .Shelley went to a small resort on the Thames and wrc ,e "The Revolt of Islam." between His Majesty the King of Italy and His Majesty the Emperor of Aus- tria, their e r heirs andsuccessors, their states and their respective subjects in perpetuity." These "scraps of paper" seem to reg peat the words of a forerunner. The Treaty of Zurich of 1859 between Aus- tria and France seeing almost a copy of others. It states that there shall be future peace and friendship between "their respective states and subjects forever." In 1913,' following the Bal. kan War, the Treaty of London was signed by Turkey on one side and by Greece. Bulgaria, Serbia and &fonts - negro on the other. This states that there shall be peace and friendship "between their heirs and -successors, their respective states and subjects in perpetuity." The Treaty of Bucharest of 1913 between Bulgaria, on one side and Roumania. Greece, Serbia and Montenegro . on the other, is more modest, simply saying that "there shall be peace and amity a. ,'' * between their heirs and successors." The Treaty of Frankfort • between Franca and Germany of 1871 omits all mention of futti're peace;: as does that signed at .the end of : the Spanish- American War. 4040. - r----•--yip-.-.,..,.._.,,� Phonies A.

At a normal rate we expel air from the chest at the rate of four feet er p second, but in violent cough- ing we expel it at the rate of 300 feet a second. 'Thus a persistent cough not only weakens the constitution but it is a direct cause of emaciation. I5in rd's Liniment Believes Neuralgia, When Courage Failed.
