Enumerators are finding the work of the preparation of the /916 Voters' List, with the new ad- ditions, no small chore. "Psics on earth, goodwill toward men" appears to be the campaign song of the Conservative nominees in the present election. It was not always so and some of the Grit doubting Thomases wonder if this is a real change of heart or only a passing spasm until after Decem- ber r7th. THE boys of the 16rst Huron Battalion both in England and France will not be forgotten in their Christmas dinner as arrangements have been made by this County to see to the finances of the well deserved treat. It will be accompauied by many hearty good wishes at the Yuletide, Wxbelieve every woman, whether a relative to a soldier or not, should have a vote. Many a sterling worker for the Red Cross and other patriotic causes may not have members of the family overseas owing to not possessing eligi- bles, yet, nevertheless, have worked liked Trogans for the comfort and neces- sities of the boys at the front. "Tax day of rake-off is ended," Hon, Mr. Rowell said, at Stratford, "and that means the saving of millions of dollars to the people of Canada but the:mistakes of men in the past will not reinforce the man of the present•" He calls the grafting of millions by the soft name of "mistakes" when it more properly should be designated as stealing in more than one case. Has this open eonfes• sion of wrong doing been punished or has: any member of the Borden Govern - meat condemned it 7 POOR old Russia is travelling a thorny path which it is hoped, will ultimately lead them to the place where the roses are, The want 01 integrity on the part of leaders appears to be their bane. They will find out by bitter experience, that the allies, from whom they received many favors, were their truest friends, and that it was meanness, personified, to play the traitorous part as they have clone. Democracy cannot be achieved in allay as the distance to be travelled between serfdom and freedom is too great to span gnickly. TnARRlhas been a wide divergence in the dealings of war Tribunals but this might be ; expected according to the opinions of the members who look at the situation from various viewpoints, Almost solitary are the cases, as far as we have heard, of volunteering for ser- vice among those appearing before the Boards. Some of the excuses put forth as published 10 the papers are very flimsy and it would take a Icing time to secure too,000 men according to the willing- ness expressed. For fellows who Say they wish to banish politics;; during the war some ranters an both platform and in press hand out good bot stuff that is too silly . to spend much time over. One item is the suggestion that all the loyalty and patriotism is stowed away under the waistcoat of the members of the late Government and that the fellows on the other side are not, Britons. A compare. 5011 of the parties, either past or present, will not strengthen touch its assertion. The history of ,Parliamentary doings since the war begun will bump such an Allegation vete hard.

From a hovel in the rear of more pretentious buildings comes a ghastly tale, one that in this fah- Province of oprs seems almost incredible; yet, to those who know the ravages of con- sumption, it is but a typical case, Grief stricken, the mother tells us of her five small children buried from this lowly home during the past three years, of her only remaining child, suf- fering from a tuberculous hip, and then as though in mockery of their misery, the father, too, was stricken. He is now a patient at the Muskoka Free Hospital, where every endeavour is being made to save his life. The Muskoka Free Hospital for Consump- tives is appealing for help to carry on this fight against the Great White Plague. The money you give will help them seek out these unfortunate fami- lies and give them a fighting chance for their lives. Contributions may be sent to W, J. Gage, Chairman, 84 Spadina Avenue, Toronto, or Geo. A. Reid, Secretary - Treasurer, 223 College St. Toronto.
