In Toronto this week it was rather
inspiring tosee the War Effort at
its peak. The flag poles of most
buildings flew the Red Cross ensign,
and from most of the stores and
homes could, be seen the same Red
Cross in all direction, -Streets,
stores, restaurants, street cars,
hotels, in fact everywhere could be
seen men in Khaiski, airmen, sailors
and all the branches of the service.

Patriottic Societies collecting for the.

tario proves to all and sundry, that
this Province is right in there` for.

Everywhere you are conironte'd with
the words "Chin tip:' "There'll al-

To an old soldier it centainlyy

well we remember the stirring

Burning," fat's a long way to 'Tip-
perary," "The long long Trail,'
' Take me back to dear old Blighty."
We marched and grunted, we parade

our Empire, to make Canada and the

now our children are being called,

We thought of those it symbolized,
those of our Comrades we leftbe-
hind, sleeping beneath the poppy
fields of Flanders. "If ye break faith
with us who die, WE SHALL NOT
SLEEP, though poppies grow In
Flanders fields." The tragedy of.
those words, today, arter twenty
years of peaceful sleep, the loving
care the tender devotion, that hes
kept their graves green and fresh
and their memory hallowed, today,
they are being trampled by an even
greater tyrant, more ruthless, more
hateful,

Army who is' in Canada on a special

for another year, The ' fact , that
the weeeleer man 'decided thatwe
should have a fine day dry and sun-
shiny, something quite rare, the
past few weeks accounted for.the
fact that the attendance was down
considerably, A gsod many fatal -
ere of the district could not ,sp7se
the time to enjoy their loeal tar,
much as they might want to while
their harvesting tivas uncompleted
and threshing to be done,
There were a good many splendid
exhibits shown in the "Palace" and
the outdoor entries among the Live -
stook was particularly good,
The parade headed by the presi-
dent of the Fair Board, Jas. Burgess;
and the Brussels Ci.Jzens Band
marched, shortly after one o'clock
from Victoria Park to the Fair
Grounds. Outstanding in this
parade were the pupils of Miss H.

hate of yellow and red and those at
Miss Dorothy Wright's school who
presented an attractive appearance

During the afternoon the Strati

and created their usual good impres-
sion in their smart angler= and led
by their snappy drum major,
One feature that drew consider-
able attention, at least of the kid-
