Britain Glory
In these times of natural airs
and patriotic singing and talking,
there is danger of forgetting what
Britain's glory really ie. It is not
her size, not her wealth, not her
ships or armies; but it is the spirit
of true chivalry, mixed with gen-
erosity and justice, that is h e r
glory. The world can do without
a Britain, but it cannot de without
these qualities. Let ns see that
they are kept alive.
Gordon of Khartoum is one of
England's heroes. on his monu-
ment in St. Paul's are the words:
"He gave his strength to the weak,
his substance to the poor, his sym-
pathy to the suffering and his heart
to God." There is Britain's glory!
"The tumult and the s h o u t i n g
dies." The material part of our
civilization is perishing, but great
principles incarnated into a life
and acted out are immortalized.
Only as the outer forms a channel
for the expression of the soul it is
of use. Let Britons everywhere
be brave and good for truth and
righteousnesu; and that will be het
lasting glory. Nations like that
will live eternally.
The Empire's Need.
Canada has 'now 50,000 men in
active service in Flandere, Eng-
land, and Bermuda and St. Lucia.
The total number under arms is
nearly 115,000—a greater number
than the United States bad in the
Spanish-American War. Addition-
al troops are being enlisted and in
a short time the Canadian LArmy
will have 150,000 men.
This plan which has applied
heretofore and which still holds is
that of keeping 50,000 men under
arms at all times in Canada, and
despatching them in large batches
as the necessity of the service calls
for. This has worked most satis-
factorily and at the beginning of
the month the different units were
fully up to establishment.
With additional units in pros-
pect of organization, the total by
midsummer will likely reach the
150,000 mark. Two complete
divisions will be constantly main-
tained in the field and reinforce-
ments at the rate of eight to ten
thousand a month provided for.
If more are required the Gov-
ernment will increase our army
to meet the requirements. The
measure of Canada's assistance will
be the need of the Empire,
Fear, Not Patriotism.
Those Laurier "Patriots" who
threatened separation from the
Empire if the Conservative Gov-
ernment persisted in its policy of
strengthening the British navy in
preparation for the Great Emer-
gency, which no one now denies
existed are now so "patriotic"
they would permit a Government,
which they say is "discredited"
"Incapable" and "degraded" to
govern Canada rather than have
the people pass upon its merits.
In the Brockville Recorder,
Hon. G. P. Graham assures his
readers that "all that is awaited is
a chance for the electorate to put
the seal of disapproval on the
ballots." And yet Mr. Graham's
"patriotism" prevents him putting
his opinion to the test.
And the Winnipeg Free Press is
confident that "the people would
hasten to get rid of a Government
which thus displayed its titter nn -
fitness for the responsibilities of
office at this critical time." If so
why does the Free Press persist in
trying to keep its friends from
showing how this country should
be governed? Canada's aid to the
Umpire would not cease with the
declaration of an election. At
least until the Conservative Gov-
ernment was defeated, there could
be no cessation in forwarding
soldiers to fight in the Empire's
just cause. Ie the Fee Press
doubtful of what would happen if
Sir Wilfrid happened to be return-
ed?
If these two papers are honest
in their opinion are they patriotic?
If the Government is incapable and
has lost the confidence of the elec.
tors is it patriotic to maintain it in
office? .A. disinclination ou the
part of the Laurieritee to meet the
eleetortt will have to be explained
Oh other grounds than; patriotism ;
_p.
r reason.

How To Address Mail,
To Prisoners 01 War In Germany,
1 Lettere (lettere should be left
open) postcards and postal parcels
should be addressed as follows; -
1 Bank, initials, name.
2 Regiment, or other unit,
3 British (or Canadian, French,
Belgian or Russian) prisoner of war.
4 Place of internment,
5 Germany.
Place of internment should be stated
always if possible, and parcels cannot
be accepted unless place of internment
is stated. All addressee must be in
ink.
2 Communications should be limit.
ed to private and family news and to
necessary business comtnunicatione,
and should not be sent too frequently.
No references to the Naval, Military
or Political situation or to naval or
military movements and organizations
are allowed. Letters or postcards con-
taining each references will not be
delivered.
3 Friends of prisoners of war are
advised to send postcards in preference
to letters as postcards are less likely to
be delayed, If lettere are sent, they
should not exceed in length two sides
of a sheet of note paper and should
contain nothing but the sheet of note.
paper. Ono account should the
writing bo crossed,
4 Letters . annot for the present be
accepted for regietration,
5 Postage need not be paid either
on letters or parcels addressed to
prisoners of war.
6 No letters should be enclosed in
parcels, and newspapers must not on
any account be sent. So far as is
known there is no restriction on the
contents of parcels; tobacco may be
sent and will bo admitted duty free
but food stuffs of a perishable charact-
er should not be sent. Parcels should
not exceed 11 lbs. in weight.
7 Remittances can be made by
money order to prisoners of war.
Instructions as to how to proceed can
be obtained from Postmasters of
Accounting Post Offices, The trans-
mission of coin, either in letters or
parcels, is expressly prohibited. Post-
al notes and Banknotes should not be
sent.
8 It must be understood' that no
guarantee of the delivery of either
parcels or lettere can be given and
that the Post Office accepts no re-
sponsibility. In any case, consider-
able delay may take place and failure
to receive an acknowledgerhent should
not necessarily be taken as an indica-
tion that letters and parcels sent have
not been delivered.
9 Se far as is known, prisoners of
war in Germany are allowed to write
letters or postcards from time to time;
but they may not always have facili-
ties for doing so and the fact that no
communication is received from them
need not give rise to anxiety.
SAFETY FIRST.
Officers and employees of the Grand
Trunk Railway are trying by every
means in their power to prevent in-
juries to all persons—patrons, employ-
ees and others. But on looking into
this subject, they find that more than
one-half of all persons killed on rail-
way property. In this way, in these
two countries, fifteen persons are killed
and about the same number injured
for every day in the year.
Perhaps you may think that the
11,000 or more persons meeting with
casualties every year while trespassing
on railways are tramps or hoboes; but
the fact is that 80 per cent. of th `m
are useful citizens. Men walking on
tracks to and from their places of
work or business, children playing on
tracks or flipping cars comprise the
greater part of this shameful slaughter.
To most people it seldom occurs that
in walking on tracks they are taking
any particular risk. It seems so easy
to see or hear a train and when one
thinks about the subject at all, he
likely concludes that while others may
have been caught he will be more
vigilant and escape.
Those injured and killed ill this way
are not the only ones who suffer.
Their families being deprived of their
earning power are called upon to bear
a large khare of the burden, The
public is deprived of the service of this
large army of persons and in a great
percentage of cases are compelled to
contribute to the care and mainten-
ance of such persons and dependent
members of their families.
In view, therefore, of these facts and
in the interest of public safety, every
person is earnestly requested not to
walk on or along railroad tracks both
on account of his own safety and for
the sake of setting a good example to
others. We ask parents to call this
subject to the attention of their child-
ren and instruct themae to the danger
of walking or aying
on or aboht
t
tracks and of flipping care.
In this connection lot us also can
attention to another source of ibjury
which is quite common, due to failure
of persons to stop and look in both
directions for approaching trains when
about to .cress tracks at highways and
other places, Remember that trains
may move on any track at any time.
We do not believe that any person is
so busy that he can t take the few
seconds before crossing a track to
make sure that there is no approaching
train. By ail means never "duck.
under" crossing gates or acroes tracks
when warned not to do E by eignel
from flagman or other source.
