To the Editor of The News -Record: Dear Sir: A reply to James T. Keys, Sir: There were two questions only raised in -"an open. letter". A direct answer would be .much appreciated, 1st Did you make the statement attributed to you in the article re- ferred to? 2nd Are you prepared to debate the question of the relative merits of the two institutions? A clear-cut answer, either Yes or No, is all that we ask of you to these questions.' Anything else is superfluous.— Frank Welch, Sec. Varna U. F. 0. „ue.a To the News -Record. Dear Sir: Seeing in your paper of March '4 that Clinton people were likely to vote on a bylaw for . the raising of ten thousand dollars for a inonuineiltfor our ,dead soldiers• which is a nice thing, but at the same time I think it is a little foolish to put se much money in a monu- ment. Why not put that same mon- ey into a Memorial Hospital for our soldiers, as a hospital is much needed in Clinton'? Then for some 'time to come the general public would be receiving some good from their money, and place the- -hospital on the outskirts of Clinton. There plight be several good sites say out on the London Road or out on the Huron Road, either side of the town as these two roads are becoming Provincial Highways, or another place just over the railroad hear the Wm. Jackson residence, these being all very much travelled roads all the year round, But I think a hospital should not be right in the town. I am in sympathy with doing some- thing in honor of our. fallen soldiers us I had two nephews killed in France, brothers, one of them went with Col. Combo's Battalion and the other from Winnipeg, so you see I am interested in this thing. But I really would like to see a fine hos- pitalClinton and it would. b in, e' a usefill thing for all time and I think if the country, sty for five miles on every side, was canvassed there eould be a lot of money collected for this cane .

Tp. s a s, 8 Clinton, March 23ril, 1920 To the Editor ,of The News -Record. Dear Sir: On April 5th Bylaw No. 7 for 1920 of the town of Clinton, to raise $10,000 for a soldiers' monu- ment, will be before the ratepayers, and it will be up to therm to say whether they wish to erect a memor- ial to perpetrate the memory of some thirty-five young men of Clinton who gave their glorious young lives, that we all might enjoy British lib- erty. By their sacrifice 'this nation.nn- doubtedly escaped the Hell black sys- temi of human bondage that the Huns would have imposed on us all. This matter has been in the hands .of a committee for more than a year past, and different propositions have been before thein, such as Memorial' parks, hospitals, halls, scholarships etc. etc., but after giving all these every consideration and thought, it was decided that a monument would bo the most suitable and the most enduring, Not only will it tell its story during the brief fife of all who knew the young men, it will tell the same story for the next thousand years,' that _these were .the glorious days when men would lay down their lives for the cause of 'right and liberty. We should perpe- trate the names and deeds of our greatest benefactors. and the pro- posed monument will do it, Amongst all that is old and an- cient in England;- its old cathedral buildings of great age, they are re- cent and modern, when compared with a . monument which stands on the Embankment in Old London, called Cleopatra's Needle. This stately shaft was carved out of stone 1700 years B. C.
