funds,
1917 (s the 5oth year of the confedera-
tion of this Domiaiau, If It werenot for
war there would be some "deluge."
ADMIRAL. DEWEY, the 'U, S. hero of
'Manilla Bay and the sinking of the anti-
quated Spanish navy, is dead, He was
never troubled much with big head.
TRosx West Simcoe tooters would be
good heeds to send to the frout as their
mud throwing batteries would do great
execution, especially when combined
with gas.
Pu'r the Militia Act in force in Can
ada and all the recruits necessary will
be secured to bank up with earnestness
the gallant lads who are already doing
their part to keep tate Red, White and
Blue flying.
DoeneIOH Parliament opened its ses-
sion Thursday of last week. There are
eo seats vacant besides those represent-
ed by M P.'s serving overseas. The
Government bas now a small majority
in the Senate.
WEU.s there is every necessity for a
recruiting boom the thinking out of best
pians to look after the boys who come
home from the front should not be
overlooked. They must be dealt with
most considerately.
BETTER sleep will be obtained by many
when the German raider on the mer-
chant ships of the ocean is captured or
sent to Davy Jones' locker, The Kaiser
is a past master on a warfare of piracy
on the seas.
We don't think that the Queen city
should lose the insane asylum as it will
be bandy to accommodate such fellows
as appeal to the police to discover
whether they are married or not, pot-
witbstanding that a woman is on hand to
testify for the affirmative,
6 000 auto licenses are to be issued
5,
for r9I7. it is said, and they will be
ready by February 1st. The Provincial
Government does not appear to think
there is going to be any slump in the car
business this year. It is a little gold
.nine for them from an unknown source
r0 years ago.
SREAK a good word for your com-
munity and prove to the people you
meet that you have no grouch and that
your liver is all right. Folk often get
tired at the everlasting grumbling some
people are always ready to unload. Be
an optimist for 3 months es a trial just
to see how it would go.
PLO WING up the Royal parks that have
not been cropped for possibly hundreds
of years is a notable victory for the com-
mon people io England and also evi-
dence of wisdom on the part of royalty

war pressure.

He's a great find for the lawyers and the

of a resolution in that behalf. Every

port of this desirable legislation.
D1n you say you were tired of the con-
stant calls for money for Red Cross sud
Patriotic purposes ? Supposing the
tired soldier in the trenches said he was
tired and dropped his rifle, the machine

eettlrnet1 or returning soldier boys, who
ba•ve been m tithed for life ib the terrible
confi.et, will never be permitted to feel
want. Where they are able to supple.
ment their assistance by their own ef-
forts they should do it. It removes the
idea of being on the °barite list aucl ed.
uouragesthe thought and act of first;
class eare.
IF King Constantine were shunted
from the throne of Greece he would be
id great fettle to join a first class circus
as an up-to-date Somereaulter er sword
swallower. He sure has a cotton string
fora backboue, but perhaps he is not
lord and master in his own house and' if
this latter is a fact many a married man
will deeply sympathise with him. Poor
Connie ! playing jumping -jack for all
and sundry cannot be much fun after
all.
$6,iso wits paid the other day for a
Gucrusey cow. It was the good name
of the breeding that boosted the price.
The value of a good name for either
man or beast is not easily estimded,
hence it should be the aim of everybody
to keep chnr.,eter unspotted is both word
and deed No easy task is undertaken
w`ten a person sets out to do better but
it bespeaks much toward the winning
to decide to do so and then to make the
effort. Ni ver surrender, never haul
down the flag, fight and win.

Days May Come and Days May
Go but the Mud Stays Here
forever.
The advet'tisementts used to say—
"Just 4 more days till Christmas," but
to view the big headlines would cause
little enthusiasm here. The day will
in all probability be spent much the
same as others, although we are hop-
ing Lhat the powers that be will con-
descend to give us a rest fol• a few
hours at least.
We are still muck -mixing and at
tiimee absorbing a little mixture of
which there seems to be an abundance.
Robert WV. Service penned a little

our feelings here :
"It isn't the foe that we fear ;
It isn't the ballets that whine ;
In isn't, Lhe business career'
Of a shell or the bust of a mice ;
It isn't Lhe snipers who seek
To nip our young hopes in the bud ;
Nn, it isn't the:gnne,
And it isn't the Huns—
It's the mud, mud, mud.
The disagreeable weather is natur-
ally affecting, to a considerable extent
the troops from Canada, and the Medi-
cal Officel'e are busy men, hospital ac-
commodation ie taxed to overflowing.
With the exception of Gordon Hoff-
man, who has been a very sick boy,
but is now on the road to recovery,
the Milverton platoon have enjoyed
fairly good health, The "Overseas
bark" is a common complaint, but is
not a serious malady. We are now
all housed together and Bill Rosamond
who has been superannuated bo head-
quat'ters, being a little aged for active
service, looks after our palace. W m.
has no small task keeping the boys in
der. he meals etre cattle
d from
or r
the cook -houses to the huts. Haven't
as yet heard grace said before tbe re-
past is disposed of.
We were somewhat surprised to
note in papers from Canada a state -
melt by Lieut. 'Torrance concerning
troops now coming ft ern that country.
Possibly the cub reporter of the Her-
ald got his wires ci ossed, for in some
respects the information was far from
correct. As regards the fit men being
sent to school°, there ie not a little of
truth. Already men with whom we
crossed the ocean have fallen in
France and officers of our Battalion
are in the front line trenches. Thele
is a system in vogue as far as I can
see of making training battalions of
certain units, Into these, other
battalintts ate drafted and as arule
the N: (1 O.'s are sent to take differ-
ent courses and are then held fur a
certain time to train the new men as
they some in. In the assertion that
many men unfit for service are taken
to England and sent back without
ever seeing France, I believe there is
a heap of truth. Today men who are
costing the Canadian people possibly
$100 a month are detailed to ramble
up and down guarding such important
iuslitutnns ae water tanks, wash
houses rand coal yruds. This may be
necessary but in 005001in language it
appears to me as hlawsted rot, Take
a mat's view of the situation, for-
getting politics for the moment, and
the outcome of any reasonable think-
ing must be that the people of our land
are being bled white situply because
he o erument bus
not. et decided to
t v y
lock horns with a difficult problem
nd force men who ane fib and able to
a
take pat t in the big show to get into
the khaki uniform. There are
thousands of young men in Canada to-
day—trot lacking in courage or manli-
ness—who would without doubt face
the Huns with as much dash and
spirit as those who fell at the Somme,
Givenchy orFestubert. Ye u ask why
are they not here P My belief is that
90 per bent. have not the nerve to
break the home ties that bind them
fast, They are holding back, fearing
more the sight of a mother's tears
than German bullets. Most evet'y
Bran in the army to -day will tell you
he lost more sleep over• enlisting than
he inas since signing up.
I see there is still a strong appeal
for recruits but is it not high time to
cease such acts of folly as have here-
tofore been perpetrated. A stu-
pendous amount of money has been
squandered simply to advertise that
Canada has raised so many hundred
thousand troops, If Quebec is a draw
back to conscription why not send a
e them
fe O rtario battalions to mak

be much missed anyway.
"Your Man on the Job."
Seaford, England, Dec. 21, 1916.
DRY BRITAIN IS INEVITABLE
To the Editor of T11B Poem:
The following is condensed from au
arLicle in the Globe of January 6Lh
"'The belief is in the air that Lloyd
George, win, two years ago, was m
favor of State purchase and was
forced by the Opposition within the
Cabinet to drop his proposals, will
now press the liquor question to an is-
sue. T.he chief protagonist in the
movement for drink flus been Arthur
Mee, a Journalist. He bus been the
Peter LheHermit of a- crusade which
now appears to be on Lhe point of
Victory.'
PRAHIBITION INEVITABLE
"Do you think Prohibition is com-
ing Mt•. Mee ? I said." "It is as in-
evitable as victory" he replied. "We
stand face to face with all the forces
of ecientiflc deviltry, and though the
things Edison said the outer day are
rather hard they are also rather tune.
Our people and our Parliarnent both
have been "overbeeied." You know
how slow we -are, to move. 11 was our
freedom that stood in the way—the
very thitag we are fighting for, I1
was that which brought us nearer to
defeat than we ever have been. Man
has so much freedom in this country."

"Although we s
alcohol is poison, for the miserable pit-
tance of a few pounds apiece, we allow
a hundred thousand men to sell this
poison, and then .nen who grow rich

Lords. A trade bus so much freedom
in this country that it can carry on
its work despite the fact thatthe King
of England has declared that it pro-
longs the war. The free habits of the
people have been a sort of fetich with
us always. A man can do as he likes,
and it was not until the end of the
South Aft lean war that the first doct-
or went into a school on behalf of the
State to see that the children were
well enough to learn. He found Lhat
a mighty army of them were not fit
to be at school and we are beginning
to alter that now. But still there are
parents who will not let the school
doctors see their children. 'Things
are coming to a pretty pass" they
would say "when a man can no longer
do what he likes with his child."
When you think ue slow remember
that our very freedom makes us so.
