South Porcupine, June 3.â€"(Special to The Advance)â€"The Sacred Cantata, Phone 1873â€"F "Are the youth of Canada â€" being trained for the conflict, which will assuredly come, unless it is met by a show of force greater than the azgresâ€" sor can furnish? There is a fine field in the North for the training of young men who could play a great part in preparednes, ready to stand in the batâ€" talions to assist in making them ready to quickly take their places in the deâ€" fence of Canada and the Empire. The men of the North are of a material that would at least make them equail of any soldiers in the world. In carryâ€" ing out this scheme a Northern militia could be formed with permanent officâ€" ers and nonâ€"commissioned officers and perhaps an orderly or two, stationed at the places I mention hereafter. Then, an intensive enlistment campaign could be carried on, with recruits to be signâ€" ed up for one year, and one month of this year to be spent in intensive trainâ€" ing. It would not ‘be necessary for the whole month to be done at once, so as not to interfere with employment. "Armouries with barrack accommoâ€" dation could be erected at Timmins or some other place in the Porcupine Gold Area, Kirkland Lake and Kapusâ€" kasing, thus covering a considerable portion of Northern Ontario. At these barracks there should be a canteen, games and Oother attractive entertainâ€" ment. "From these points recruiting could be carried on without using up much time of bands which would have to be organized. It would be easy to dash out of a later afternoon and carry on meetings at night irom any of these points. Of course, I believe that when the men are doing their month‘s trainâ€" ing that they should be paid, because, as you know, it is very difficult. "When we gather in annual Reâ€"unâ€" ion we do not do so in a martial spirit, but in a spirit of comradeship, to fight over again the battles of the past, and our associations together in the spheres of conflict, the memories of days gone by; but we have othéer thoughts and duties and one of the thoughts is that Canada should do its duty by the Empire without shirking, so that government of the people, by the people may not perish from the earth. jlans make the statement that there will be conscription for service outside of Canada,. What will be the good, I ask you, of conscription for service inside of Canada? If the Empire is defeated in War*® what could Canada do against the hordes of Europe. Reâ€" solutions of Parliament regarding conâ€" and the talk of politicians whose only interest seems to be keepâ€" ing in power, would not bar the bayâ€" onets of the aggressor nations. "It has been well said that a nation has a good government as it deserves. I say to you that the only democratic manner in which this great question of defence can be treated is by seeâ€" ing to it that regardless of politics or puolitical affiliations that we only supâ€" port such candidates for Parliament or the Legislatures as are strong on the question of defence and realize that the defence of the Empire wherever it is required in the world is the defence of Canada at home.

"Of course there would be many deâ€" tails to be worked out, but this is really the foundation of the scheme that I had in mind and the best feature of it is, I believe, that if war was deâ€" clared, instead of having a whole bunch of awkward squads, ‘we would have a considerable number of young meh President of the S.A.

"Preparedness is the watchword." ‘‘Now in conclusion, I say to you that we fought to save South Africa for the Empire and it is a source of great satisfaction to us to know that the comrades who fought in South Africa and stayed there, together with the British parts of South Africa are united with our old foes, the Bogrs, in the determinagion that Germany shall not get back any of its African colonies and that these shall form a part of the Union of South Africa, which we feet proud that we helped to creat and we also feel proud of the attitude of our comrades in South Africa and our late enemies and present friends, the Boâ€" ers; that thsy are doing their duty toâ€" wards the Empire.

Canada is a wealthy country, its potential riches ‘being only scratched, and, in spite of talk of wealth being sent out of the country 60 per cent. of it is owned by Canadians. Canadians control wealth that is Canadian â€" our obligation is to develop Canada is a potential leader of the world, and we should awaken to our cbligations and act as our forefathers would have acted.
