PRESIDENT WILSON and Premier Bor-
den are in the public eye to a larger ex
tent than usual over the poor condition
of their health, Sometimes people covet
earthly honors and high positions but
probably it is because we think the rose
is without the thorn, It is assuredly an
exacting life that oftens hurries to a pre-
mature grave,

honored by having royalty and nobility

Be -union of ex-Brusselites
in Toronto
Splendid Time.
A very successful reunion of ex-
Brueselite residents in Toronto was
held in High Park, Toronto, tiatutti83'
tll•teenoon, Sept. 20th when 171 former
friends met again, renewed acquaint-
anceship and fin mei' new friendships.
A Committee of 10 had the matter in
hand searching names and addt eases
of all who had ever. had a connection
with the "old town," and when we re-
port that names have been secured of
over 100 who were able to attend, this
brings the aggregate to neatly 800 ex-
Brusselites now living in the Queen
City. Committee was headed by Mrs,
(Dt,) Graham, Rev, Dr, Jam. Rose,
Mrs. Charles Law, Hobert Ross, dlisa
MaellcLauclllin, R, Wm k, tlliss An-
nie McBain Mrs. Frank Stoi ey
anti Roy Ainley, with the refreshments
in the hands of Miss Carrie McCrack-
en, On the arrival of the guests, they
were received by Dr, and Mrs. Graham
who labelled each one with a card
bearing his or her name, thus destroy
ing any element of formality. Chas
Leckie made an able assistant in th
labelling;
After many exchanges of heart
greetings, the company sat down a
12 tables decorations of all bein
uniform anti the color scheme red and
white. After partaking of a sumptu
ons repast (which showed the Bros
sell' reputation for good baking had
followed her daughters to Toronto
Rev, Dr. Ross occupied the chair,
which fact was greatly appreciated by
the large number present, as he had
just come from the sick -bed of his be-
loved partner in life and al. the earnest
request of the Committee, to lessen
the great blank that would be felt, had
neither of them been able to attend.
He welcomed the old and new friends,
spoke of his long and happy residence
in Brussels, the large number of ster-
liug friendships made and referted to
the peesenoe at the gathering of Dr.
Win. Graham, who was the longest
resident in Brussels of any cue on the
grounds that afternoon. The men-
tion of Dr. Graham's name brought
forth prolonged applause.
Calling on Rev, I)r. F. J. Oaten, for-
merly pastor in the Brussels Metho-
dist church, for a few WOI de the ap-
plause was renewed, Dr. Oaten spoke
in glowing terms of hie happy connec-
tion in the Huron town, the pleasure
It gave flim to renew aCgltaintannes,
and cloned by making a strong appeal
for Prohibition.
Next speaker was most warmly re-
ceived he being Rev, 1Vln. G. Hanna,
M. A., who gave reminiscences of
early days, speaking with enthusiasm
of the standing the County of Huron
had taken in advanced education.
Three special points he wished to em-
phasize as reasons for the success at-
tending that part of the country
were: -Good land, good iimprove-
rnents and good` roads. Rev. Mr,
Varma congratulated the magnificent
assemblage on their being together on
such a happy occasion as this renew-
ing of ftiendshipg and hoped this
would only be one of many 51(0(1lar re-
unions,
Rev. F. Powell, of St. Barnahas
church, Tornntn, who supplied in St,
John's oluu'rh, Bruseels, duringthe
absence of Rev. Mr. Webb, testifed to
the delight it gave hien to sleet so
many ex -Ben So impressed
wan be that he offered to alto ry all ex-
Brusselites free if they would come to
him at St. Batnabas,
As the afternoon wore on, every-
one
very
one wondered why a re -union had not,
been Meld before and on motion of

(Dr.) Graham it was unauimonely de-
cided to forth an Association and fol.

How the last
Victory Loan
was spent
For
Demobilization
For Trade
Extension
BEFORE buying Victory Bonds again you may want to
know how Canada used the money you loaned her last
year.
Canada borrowed the money to carry on the war and to pro-
vide credits for Great Britain and our Allies,
CONSIDERABLY more than one-half of the Victory
Loan 1918 was spent on our soldiers, This included
$312,900,000, for paying them, feeding them, bringing them
home, separation allowances to their dependents, maintenance
of medical services and vocational training schools.

Other disbursements were not, strictly speaking, expendi-
tures, but National Re -investments,

$30,000,000 for other Foodstuffs.
$2,900,000 for Canadian built ships,
$5,500,000 to pay other British obligations in Canada,

To our Allies, we loaned $8,200,000 for the purchase of
Canadian foodstuffs, raw material and manufactured
products.
