What a difference a week can make. That very small poodle that I‘d known of yore, Was not the frisky Peter that he was before; The butcher‘s boy delivered him at my back door In a package labeled "Hamburg Steak." N. Fe But my little dog came back to me And he sure was a sorrowful sight to I lost my little dog on a summer‘s day, The butcher boy came and he lured him away. . I mourned the little feller till my hair turned grey, For I missed his cunning pranks and capers. I â€"searched for him high and I searched for him low, And there wasn‘t any place that I ‘didn‘t go; I couldn‘t find a trace of the little dog, though, I had advertised in all the papers. THE DOG CAME BACK I had a little dog and his name was Pete, He had a disposition that was sweet. He played with all the people on our street, And he was never cross or surly. He made a lot of friends, as the good dogs do. The groceryman loved him, and the iceman, too. He was a real poodle dog, through and through ; His hair was long and curly. THE PET OF THE 48TH ‘"Pete Campbell" is the pet name of the regimental rooster, alive and crowing, that went through Plyâ€" mouth and on to Salisbury camp with the 48th Highlanders, perched on the shoulder of a 48th Highlander. . The bird came to its name because "it crows like Pete Campbell gives the word of command." The rooster has been trained to stand at ease and obey other military commands. The 48th Highlanders ‘mascot was stolen out of a barnyard on the return porâ€" tion of a route march from Valcartier camp, and may yet be carried in triâ€" umph through the streets of Berlin. Tell the boys at home that when recruits for the 2nd contingent are called that I expect the boys of |"Fighting B" to be on the job and to ,do as well if not better than we did for the first contingent. Tell them [ not to forget the honor of the old Tell the bunch atâ€""Steve‘s" that I sure would like to be back for one night for a "Ham and" or ‘ one of "Steve‘s famous "Johnson‘s.‘" I often think of them and it won‘t be long un til I am back. Tell any of the folks who want to send the boys or myself â€" Christmas presents that we would prefer them to give the money to the Red Cross, or the Patriotic Fund or the Home Guard and we will appreciate it just as much, because we cannot carry much and money is no good to us on the battlefield. Of course, the socks and stuff that the ladies are sending will always be acceptable, as would a little tobacco and cigarettes. The GRIMSBY boys in camp do not bhave to take a back seat from any body of men in the whole 33.000. R not to forget squadron. I don‘t imagine Kaiser Bill can hold out much longer as things are‘ sure looking black over there, but by bring ing Turkey into it I supposed he looks for a new lease of life. If he only knew that the "Fighting B" boys from GRIMSBY were on the way, along with all the other manâ€"eating Canucks, he would soon call a halt. I got two Independents of Oct. 7 and 14 this morning and was right glad to see them. The boys are fairâ€" ly eating them up now. I ‘reckon Beamsville won‘t put up that, $100 to race Burland, not if she stops and thinks of Brantford; eh! The latest rumor in the that we are going to Egypt tip, but nobody places much in It. _I see that the ladies sent us a box on the 12th of October. We have not received it yet, but I suppose it is on the noad somewhere, and will turn up later. The King is reviewing us tomorrow and we had a rehearsal today. It rains here nearly every day. I am just about the whole » works in this company at present. The captain and sen. sub. are sick and the other chap is away for a week on a pass. Some job, up at six and worry never ceases till 8.30 or 9. The boys are behaving well and never grouch a bit, so they evidently are happy and the Siamese~ â€"Twins, Sutton and Churchill are simply rollâ€" ing in fat. They are on transport. _ _I have not received any INDEPENâ€" DENTS yet, Why, the boys are worry ing me to death about them. (A bunâ€" dle of 25 INDEPENDENTS leave this office every week for the boys, but they are probably thrown to one side in the surh.â€"Ed.) & Plunket Osborne‘s cousin, or uncle or nephew or something is a captain in this brigade. | Nov. 3rd. ! Dear Orlon:â€"I have been trying tol find Whyte for several days, bu could get no trace of him until today, whenl I learned that he was still at Plyâ€" mouth assembling motor trucks, but from information at hand will be in the camp in the course of ten days or two weeks. If there is an automobile truck alloted to our transport I am going to make a big effort to have him attached, then we would> all be together with the exception of Ross. |_DON‘T SEND US A LOT Long and I were discussing Christ mas dinners today and I felt pretty glum, but am alright now. We deâ€" cided to get acquainted with some "Big guy" and have him invite us out for Christmas. Good idea if it can be done. I met "Bad Bill"‘ Burkholder of ‘‘Tiger ‘ Football" fame .and Jimmy Duffy the champion road runner here today. They are with the Q1st of Hamilton in the 16th Battalion.

We should have $50,000 ; cholera belts, asked for in thousands, woven recommended; socks, we canâ€" not have enough, the more handâ€"knit the better. (These are the first and most important needs). Handkerchiefs, colored, khaki ferred. Sleeping caps 4 â€"Muffiers * Wristlets . All packages should be clearly adâ€" dressed to Miss Plummer, care of Montreal Depot, and very plainly marked "FIELD COMFORTS". All money should be sen'tmtov Miss Arnoldi, "FIELD COMFORTS FUND" 69_(_§rosye;10r St., London, W. We shall be pleased to give any further information desired. To give you some idea of how neâ€" cessary they consider comforts over here I may say that the Queen has appealed for 300,000 belts and 300,000 socks and Field Marshall Sir John French has made a special and urâ€" gent appeal for the immediate disâ€" patch of belts. The demand is so great that it is very hard to get these supplies here and we feel also that Canadian industries should benefit by the supplies for Canadians. We beg, therefore, that you will come to our aid and make this work the big and complete thing it should be. The English papers are full of apâ€" peals for the British Tommies and it‘ behoves us Canadian women to look after our own men. When once they are at the front there will * be much replenishing to do and it is pro posed to have a distributing depot at the base wherever that may be. We shall be at Salisbury Plain â€" for the present and supplies will be reâ€" ceived and acknowledged from there. Free transport is promised and arâ€" rangements are being made for a re ceiving and forwarding depot at Monâ€" treal as the Novembeér sailings â€" are all from there. Notices as to this will appear shortly in the Canadian press. |â€"_When the: Canadian Expeditionary ‘F’orce' left Canada Miss Arnoldi and I | were appointed by the Minister of ,Militia to accompany them and conâ€" tinue the work we had begun at Valâ€" [cartier, namely the distribution â€"â€" of Field Comforts. This work has been fig‘pproved by the British War Office. ,“It was realised in Canada as it is here that it is very necessary and imâ€" portant. The women of Canada are working so hard and so enthusiastiâ€" cally that we feel that they will appre ciate to the full a direct channel for their supplies and also the personal touch which it gives. Very careful enquiries will be made and detailed lists obtained from each regiment as to their exact requirements. We spall need vast quantities of comforts and also money for an Emergency Fund. The men already here still require things in large numâ€" bers. Whole regiments have no cholâ€" era belts and many others are only partly supplied with these and other warm necessities. The Canadian War Contingent Asâ€" sociation which has been formed here to further the interests of our force in every way has among its objects the collection and distribution of Field Supplies. The Hon. Geo. Perâ€" ley, M. P., is the president. It may be interesting to note that each colony has a War Contingent Association. The Canadian Association has electâ€" ed us to their Executive and has apâ€" pointed us their distributing agents. In this way overlapping or wasted effort will be prevented. Dear ‘Madam:â€" We are addressing this appeal to you in the ‘hops that you will interest your association in our work and also make it known as widely as possible among those women in your locality }who are working for our soldiers. In talking to Reeve Randall about this matter on +~Monday. morning, he stated that it was his intention to bring the matter before the County |Council in«~December and see if the cement pavement cannot be extended through to the ‘River. When told that we.did not wish to wait a month beâ€" fore taking action he said "I will bring the matter up at the Council anyway,â€"and in the meantime, will takeâ€"all the necessary steps to bring this matter to. Mr. Gooderham‘s © noâ€" tice that Iâ€"+can.":. f . There is no doubt in our mind, but that Mr. Gooderham would only be too ‘pleased to listen to the pleaure of the citizens of Saltfieet, North GRIMSBY, GRIMSBY, Clinton, Beams ville and all the other municipalities if they would only go to him with the proposition. f The Torontoâ€"Hamilton Road _ has caused a lot: of _ work and now that : work © has â€" really been started it will â€" mean that Mr. Gooderhanm will be a pretty busy man, but at the same time we think that he would give the matter of exâ€" tension his most serous consideraâ€" tion. y I The following letter was received on Monday by Reeve Randall, â€" with the request that it be turned over to the ladies in charge of this work in GRIMSBY. He has turned the appeal over to Mrs. C. T. Farrell, president of the Women‘s Institute. s , The Letter i . The Ladies‘ Empire Club, 69 Grosvenor St., f London, W. ; j C (personal address) & Oct. 27,14: It is the intention of THE INDEâ€" PENDENT to get all the township and village councils in Lincoln coun ty to pass a: resolution endorsing this scheme at their next council meetings, and have a deputation sent to interview Mr. Gooderham at as early a date as possible. # At the rate that the road is eating up money now, with a corresponding increase, the County of Lincoln will be bankrupt in five years, 5 (Continued from page 1) * A few years ago the amount of money expended on the Q. & G. every year was only a drop in the whole bucket. The travel has increased to such an extent during the past five years, and the expenses have inâ€" creased at such ‘a rapid rate that the road is quickly becoming the biggest expense that Lincoln county has. AN APPEAL FROM ENGLAND WHY NOT CONTINUE preâ€" Nonâ€"suit not Allowed in Action of McDougall vs Nelson ..

Mr. Staunton has argued that no crime had been imputed upon the plaintiff in the statements made by his client regarding the securing of money from the township for â€" dead sheep. His lordship held, however, that a crime had been imputed _ and that the motion for nonâ€"suit must be dismissed. He allowed the plaintiff costs on the county court scale with no setâ€"off.. W. S.
