Soldiers Have Plenty to Eat and Shoot, While Removal
of Wounded is Greatly Facilitated by Auto Ambulances.
The r.a•rt which motor vehioles
have been playing in the present'
war has been a source of pride as
• well as keen interest to motorists
everywhere. The British army,
from top to bottom, has been mo-
torized as much as possible and
even the Canadian contingents are
provided .with considerable auto-
mobile equipment.
The motorization of the Canadian
army division is e, prominent fea-
ture of the development of the over-
seas forces. Three motor machine
gun batteries have been, or are
being provided for the Canadian
fighters in the Sifton, Borden and
Eaton battery units and the Cana-
dian Army Service Corps also have
a great many gasoline -driven vehi-
cles, which are used in..a less spec-
tacular, yet highly important,
duty—namely- the t•raneporting of
supplies of food, ammunition and
clothing to those in the front Iines.
Further, t•he Red Cross Society has
found the motor ambulance indis-
pensable. To date, no fewer than
twenty-eight motor ambulances
have been donated for arany medi-
cal purposes by the people of
Canada. It is almost impossible to
estimate the value of these gifts in
the humanitarian work which they
are doing.
Training On the Road.
An interesting part of the train-
ing of the motor department of the
C' A.S,C., now in. practice at the.
Exhibition Military Camp, is the
holding of extensive route tours by
Motor ear for the purpose of giving
the members of the ,Service Corps a
certain amount of experience in
road work. Many motor vehioles,
nearly all of which are large trucks,
are used in the trips which occupy
a period of one to four days. The
officers of the corps travel at the
head of the flying column in tour-
ing cars and the privates ride in
the trucks, five to a truck:
A unique feature is that the col-
umn camps at the road -side each
night and lives exactly under ac-
tive service conditions. The eche
dules'oali foe a fifty -mile drive each
day. which is a long distance when
the: number and speed of the trucks
are considered;
Lots of; Goad,rood.
In all reports received from the
trendies, whether private or ofti-
rial, tlhe' statement ha •always been
Made that the best of food is plenti
ful. The rnechanioal trapsport of
the Artily Service Oorps. probably
can be thanked for this state of
affairs. With the motor trucks, the
fighters in the trenchers are able to
have meat as food not more than 48
hours after the animals have been
killed and a variety of fresh food is
supplied by means of the motor
cars. The splendid diet provided
has been a means of keeping the
soldiers in good health under try-
ing conditions.
The motor trucks of the modern
army transport are .able to carry a
load of tbre•e tons, or 6,000 pounds,
at least. The old horse-drawn
carts cannot 'carry more than 3,000
pounds of load each and the pace
of the latter is comparatively very
slow. Moreover, the horses get
tired and need more or less careful
attention ;almost constantly. The
result is that it has been found that
one motor lorry •can replace four•:
or five horse vehicles. •
Equipment for a Division.
For the Divisional Supply Col-
umn of an army division, the size
of the whole second Canadian con-
tingent, the following motor ve+hi-
e•Ies constitute the regular equip-
ment: Two motor cars, seven mo-
torcycles, thirty-eight 3 -ton lorries,
three tractors, two workshop trucks
and one store truck. For a Divi-
sional Ammunition Park, whose
duty it is to keep the fighting unite
supplied with ammunition, the fol-
lowing is the motor equipment:
Five motor cars, nine motorcycles,
sic tractors, six 3 -ton lorries, four
workshop trucks, and two store and
fool trucks. The motorcycles are
used for messengers and emergency
purposes. The motor oars are em-
pioyed by the officers to keep in
personal touch with all parts of
the divisional front. The t•rartuia
Haul heavy trailers euntainiug sup-
plies and the lorries are used in
transporting heavy loads.

A GOO MEDICINE
FOR THE SPRING
Do Not Use Harsh Purgatives
—A Tonic is All You Need
Not exactly sick—but not feeling
quite well. That is the way most
people feel in the spring. Easily
tired, appetite fickle, sometimes
headaches, and a feeling of depres-
eion. Pimples or eruptions tray
appear on the skin, or there may
be twinges of rheumatism or neur-
algia. Any of these indicate that
the blood is out of order that the
indoor life of winter has left its
mark upon you and may easily de-
velop into more serious trouble.
Do not dose yourself with pur-
gatives, as so many people do, in
the hope that you can put your
blood right. Purgatives gallop
through the system and weaken in-
stead of giving etre•ngt'h. Any •doc-
tor will tell you this is true. What
you need in spring is a tonic that
will make new blood and build up
the nerves. Dr. Willd,ani ' Pink
Pills is the only medicine that can
do this speedily, •safely and surely.
Every dose of this medicine makes
new blood which clears the skin,
strengthens the appetite and makes
tired, depressed men, women and
children bright, active and strong.
Mrs. S. E. Stephens, Ponoka,
Alta., •sa,ys : "I suffered severely
from headaches, and was badly run
down in health. I had tried several
remedies with no benefit, until. I
was advised to try Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, and these have fully re-
stored my health, and I can recom-
mend them with confidence to all
weak women." •

Protection Against ('Lathes Moths.
The various substances used to
keep away moths,. such as tobacco,
camphor, naphthalene cones or
balls, tarred paper and •cedar chips
have no effect if the moth eggs are
already present in the clothes, and
entomology specialists therefore re-
cammencl, before they are laid
away .for the summer, a thorough
beating, shaking and brushing of
all articles likely to attract moths.
The brushing of garments is es-
pecially important in order to re-
move eggs which may have escaped
notice.. If the articles are quite
free from eggs when laid away, the
odor from the various repellents or
from cedar chests and wasdrobe•s
will serve to keep the moths away.
The odor, however, lessens with
age, so that the proteetion •it af-
fords is greatly decreased after a
few years. For this reason when
furs and other valuable garments
are wrapped in tarred paper the
containers should be renewed every
year or two.
In general, moths are likely to
affect- onlyarticles which are put
away and left undisturbed for .some
little time. Apartane•nts and clo-
sets that are frequently aired and
swept are not apt to be seriously
affected. In fact, airing and sun-
light are probably the best, as well
as the oldest, remedies. When
circumstances demand that the
articles be put away, however, a
convenient and effective device is
to place thein in large pasteboard
boxes, such as tailors use, and
gum a strip of wrapping paper
around the edge so as to seal up
the box completely and leave no
cracks. If the garments have been
thoroughly cleaned before being
placed in these boxes no additional
protection is necessary and there
is none of the objectionable odor
which is characteristic of so many
moth repellents.
For valuable articles the safest
plan is to place them in •cold stor-
age. Recent experiments have
Sown that the larvae of the
clothes moth will resist for a long
time low temperatures if these are
uniform. but that the alternation
of low and high temperatures
quickly results in death.
Just That.

SUGAR
The inherited preference
for ' .; .Sugar that exists in so many
thousands of Canadian homes to -day, is based
on genuine satisfaction for three generations. Satisfaction
first with "Ye Olde Sugar Loafe", made in Canada by

1880—now with the modern 2 Ib. and 5 lb. Sealed
