They are Dr. N. Woods, a practising physician of Barfield, Ont,, and Staff Sergeant Major Les- lie Liardet, a draughtsman and ar- chitect of the militia department. Both came unknown to each other from England over five years ago. They had' parted long before and did not anticipate that the re -union of, their friendship formed In study would take place over a quarter of a century later in a land so far from the home country. By one of those vagaries of fate they stumbled across each other a short while ago and have been corresponding prior- to their meeting yesterday. An inci- dent showing that long years had dimmed the memory of his chum's face in his mind occurred when Staff Sergeant Liardet walked through the revolving doors of the Chateau in response to a telephone message from Dr. Woodsat the hotel, He was walking quickly to the office to en- quire of the clerk for his old friend when passing the chair in which Dr, Woods was seated he stopped short, 'Dr. Woods ?' he asked, `I am afraid you have made a mistake,' replied Dr. Woods and the Sergt: Major walked on to the pllice, Dr. Woods then remarked to the reporter, who was with hive at the time, 'I'll fool him this timno. He used , to play lots of pranks on me at college and many's the linking I have taken for him.' 'Leslie,' he called, when Sorgt. Major Liardet started enquiry at the office,. The latter turned round and tide voice clinched the first partial recognition, 'f'he friends had met and the reporter cleared away to 'let thein renew old friendships, Dr. Woods is suffering from rheuma- tism, otherwise lie would be in France. He has. two brothers in the service. I•Ie has been doing a little war work at home but wants to get overseas if possible, This, accounts for his presence in Ottawa.
