Officers and Soldiers ,Debts As applications continue to be re- ceived at District and Militia Hcad- quarters from 'tradesmen and iudly- iduals for assistance in the recovery of debts due to them by officers and soidiiers serving in the Canadian Ex- peditionary Force or the Active Mi- litia of Canada and by Officers' or Sergeants' Messes, Reginhental Can- teens,. etc., it has been found desk - able to state publicly that the Mil- itary Authorities have no power to enforce payment and they are unable to assist in' the recovery, of private 'debts. Therefore, all persons who give credit to officers and soldiers do so at their own risk. Officers, Non -Commissioned Officers and men are as amenable to the Civil Law of the Country as any ether class of His Majesty's sub- jects, with this exception, that no execution can he' taken against their person, pap, arms, ammunition, e- quipment, instruments, re*aimental necessaries or clothing.

NATIONAL SERVICE .LTTERA- One pf the mostTURva:Diablo of recent literary contributions to the great cause is a booklet by Professor Stephen Leacock,' entitled '"NationaI Organization for War." In this booklet, Dr. Leacock makes an ur- gent call for national thrift and na- tional saving. He attacks in vigor - ods style the evils of extravagance at' this crisis in Canada's history, and by trenchant phrase and apt il- lustration disposes of various com- mon errors in regard to individual spending of money" during war time, This pamphlet was originally pub- lished by Dr. Leacock himself, but the National Service Board were so convinced of its value in connection with their Thrift Campaign that . they have had it republished and , have undertaken its distribution. 1 Cbpies may be obtained by, writing to the Secretary of the National Service Board at Ottawa, or by ap- plying In the National Service Di- rector in any Province.
