Musgrove, M, P. P„ ably presided and in hie opening remarks; said that all :now 4believed that. when Britain was at war Canada was at war. The unification and the solidarity of the Empire was now complete and the war :would be pressed tc a successful conclusion even to the last man and the last dolls^. From this war he hopedhat old things would pass away and a new Europe, willing to settle disputes by arbitration would seise. Rev. E. G. Dymond trusted all would give liberally to assist the families of those who had gone to the front. Rev. Father Blair in a neat address stated that he was glad to associate himself with the movement. Britain's war is our war, When the call came, we were proud of the reeponso and we cheered our boys, who had gone to the front, butour dutydid not end there. u Their families would suffer from anxiety and it would be a lasting shame if any should Buffer from hunger or cold. This was a time for doing and he was sure all would do their duty and pray without ceasing for the reetoration of peace. Rev. J. W, Hibbert epoke in his •usual eloquent and stirring meaner. He was glad to see men unite regard- less of differences in church or state in this grand work. Britain could ;cot. stay out of this'war without besmirch- irg her national honor and integrity, He laid the responsibility of this bloody war on the military mad Kaiser. As there were great generals in the past. so have we gr eat generale today in Kitchener and French. The speaker made a strong appeal to the mothers and wives to permit their sons and husbands to enlist. Dr. Redmond was proud as a British subject to be present, Victory was in sight, and, as Britain had many times before, in past centuries rescued Europe in the name of civilization from despots, eo, the would now. Those of us, who could not go, had a duty to perform at home and alt should contribute according to their means. In clueing he paid a tribute to the brave Belgians. Geo. Spotton then spoke ;and was followed by the last speaker of the evening, Captain Champen of the Salvation Army. The Captain stated that her work brought her into homes, which were already in waist and she trusted that all would do their beet.

Kennedy received from ber brother on her visit to Valcartier, Toronto, Sett, 17th,,1914. Dear Minnie, I am back from the front. My trip was one of the most enjoyable I ever had, acd I would not have missed it for anything, I left berg Thursday night and ar- rived in Ottawa Friday morning, I concluded my business there about 2 p. m, and left for Montreal where I arrived about 6 in the evening. Stay- ed at the Windsor and left for Quebec thenext afternoon, arriving there a- bout 6 o'clock p. m. Found a big line- up waiting to get rooms at the Chat- eau, enquired the price of rooms and was told that they were from $5,00 up. Went and had dinner and then went over and got a room at the St. Louie, Spent the evening on the Terrace which was thronged with military men and their friende, as was_all Quebec. Arose Sunday morning and boarded a Can. Northern train with hundreds of others for : Valcartier. Not only were there train loads but every im- aginable vehicle, and I was surprised to see the out fits that some of the French country people had. Quite ;as good, if not better than a similar turn out among our people. The train pass- ed at first through a very good 'agricul- tural district, and then the country be- came more uneven, one might say hilly were it not that the hills were such as are common in Quebec—large, round - topped hiile, .Signs of•military occup- ation began with a corporal's guard at a railway bridge where was a small en- campment on guard, and I unders' and guards are stationed all - around the Camp, but this is hearsay and I take it for granted. At riving at the station, wo all left the train and proceeded picking our way through quantities of military material towards the camp, the main part of which was about half a mile away. but nearer were several patches of tents occupied by, different epecial corps. I proceeded to Headquarters passing' material for wagons, that is parte of the sante which had arrived and were being put together, and a great num- ber of military water carts, and other such material. The former were of very peculiar material. They had 2 wheels on which was a broad low met- al tank with a large opening in the top and taps at the back to draw water from. They were made low so that water could be placed in them with buckets, They were to be drawn by two horses, Proceeding down the camp from' Headquarters, I , was struck by the thick smoke which hung over it, which. 1 found was due to the incinerators in front of each Company line for the most pact but also to the cooking out- fits. First in line were the infantry regim ents 16 of 1000 men each on each side of a wide Avenue Nvhieh traverses the Camp lorgitudinal'ly and has on each aide a ditch. The- suit is sandy and seemed reasonably well drained, thou- gh lying in a valley between two ;lines of such hills as I have described. On one side near the bills, which are of considerable height tune the Cartier River—a considerable rap'iclly flowing stream. The Camp ground is abs ut half a toile wide and I should say about' about, 3 or 4 miles long. It is lighted by electricity. • Resuming where I digreseed, there - is a line of tents, round and bell shap- ed ea P ed running back from the Avenue for each. Cotnpany. They are set quite close together, about ten rows for a battallion of infantry. On the end of each row next the Avenue is first a water tap, from which they draw their water, and beside it a pipe comes up and turns over ending in a thing like the Fitt inkier on a sprinkling can. This is enclosed with board sheeSing and constitutes a shower bath for the Com- pany, and each Company has its own —I00 of them. Next is a stand about nreart high topped by two boards slightly sloping towards each other and joined by two more at asteep elope forming a kind of trough. T could not make out at first what these stands which were quite long were for, but found that they were the laundries. I saw many of the men doing their washing on them. (Contiued next week The Wingham Patriotic Fund. The Wingham Patriotic Fund on Monday evening amountel to $1348.02 With a numl:er of people yet to be called on.

The 'Wingham Fall Fair will be 'held on Filday of this week and WEST SHORE RAILWAY In its report of their Council proc. sedingn the Kincardine Reporter says; Some time ago Mayor Mitchell sent a communication to the Attorney General's department asking what steps had been taken to have Mr. J, W. Moyes arrested. The following letter was received by the mayor: Toronto, Aug. 29th. 1914, Dear Sir -1 beg to acknowledge the receiptof your letter 'of the Att. otney General which will receive Atte. tuition. I shall be extremely glad if you will let me know what extrads 'table offence to your knowledge has been committed by J. W. Moyes. Yours truly. Edwin Bayly. The communication brought forth a. laugh. The mayor Said that the solicitor had informed him there was a brief be- fore the department showing enough to indite and extradite Moyes. Surely there is some mistake by which such a letter can be Bent out from the Attorney'Qeneral'e office. Crown Attorney Corley, of Toronto, has been several times quoted as saying that there was ample evidence for a public prosecution of the absconder Moyes, and it will be hard to convince the average citizen evho has read the published reports of the investigation. thuds far that there is not ar, abundance of ground for neti,,n by tete Attorney- General's depart met, t. \1'hy this tender feeling for the seiedling ab- sconder? Heaven help the Empire if such timidity had been shown by the leader of our forces in the present war, Who is this man, Moyes? Qn what doth this great Oaeear feed, that he should be so gingerly dealt with ? Or, rather, that be should not be dealt withas a public swindler and perjur- er ? While he is luxuriating on the $180,000 or so shown by the evidence to have been stolen from the muni- palities up here, the victims 'of his rascality are sweating to pay heavy taxes each year and have a mortgage on the next 30 years on their farms which makes them practically unsale- able. The letter sent to the Mayor of Kincardine is surely the limit of im- pertinence.=[Goderich Star, Conser- vative. Belmore.
