YE OFFICERS MESS
SONGSTERS
of the
1GIST .
The following lines was written by
one of the men of the officers mess
of the 161st Battalion at Camp Bor
den.
Say where are we going?
Is the cry on every lip.
If you -ll give 'me a pointer chum
I'.11 give a silver tip ,
Is it London, is it Goderich,• or
Is it Toronto gay?
Or wi11 it be old England
'When from Borden we go away?
If you go overseas boys,
Then to the tiring line,
Will you remember Borden
And the days of Auld Lang Syne?
How that in the eventide,
'When quiet we would be,
Freddie would start that old old song
"Nearer my God to Thee."
3. 03. would grow quiet,
Then join that beauteous strain
And together they'd sing,
The o1•d hymn again yes and again
Then followed the evening song
Fast falls the eventide,
The darkness deepens.
Lord with ane abide.
Sergeant Jack would sometimes sing
And ;Millson too would chime
Should Doc Tbompson be among the
crowd,
There's !melody subime;
And now before we part boys,
Take up the old, old strain
God be :with the soldier lads
Till we meet again,
I know sometimes we forget boys.
And do that we aught not to do.
And say what we aught note to say,
Myself and you and you;
03ut when we're at the front lads
And ,tar., yes fax away
'!remember those who are waiting
'Who wait and watch and pray,
Beckw'ltb won't be with you,
But he'll ne'er forget the time,
'When he worked in the old kitchen
Near the guarded line,
If good wishes 'can make heroes
Then heroes you will be
And glory you will gain boys,
Beyong tbe deep .blue sea.

SILKS FORECASTS
A rectionary storm period is cen-
eral on the '14th, 15th, and 116th This
period ;finds the Moon at greatest
declination north on the 15th. The
influence of Earth's' autumnal equin-
ox is -about et its closing time, buil
it' id near the 'center of the Mars pet -
aid. The perhilion of the planet 'Mer-
cury'fa11s_on the 15th, that Mercury,
is nearest the Sun at that time. The
difference in the distance of riltercur'y
from the' Sun is so vast, and the dif-
ferent .rates of his speed in hie orbit
are so great, at his aphelion and' per
Killion ,points that it seems to tiO un-
scientific and irrational not to recog-
an'ize him as a marked factor in the
physical perturbations that he be-
hind the meteorologic elements. As
this may be, there are sufficient cau-
ses to make praotiaal readers of these
forecasts watchful at 'these reaction-
ary periods. As the Moon moves
southward from its high paint north.
boreal currents will follow from the
north., adding to cold, discomforting
weather.
