In fact the Kaiser's forces will be simply smothered next year. ! - i "No one who has #een Britain at work can doubt the nation is arous- ed and is facing the erisis, not un- boastful but confident, and above all trustful," says Rev. Dr. Johns- ton, Montreal, who has just return- ed from Europe. It requires the men who have seen to annihilate that malicious myth about England not doing her share.® 5 de imem-- Rev. Salem G. Bland, D.D., mourns "the drifting policy of the Union Goy- ernment, but with all its faults he says Canada will not fall back on either of the old parties. © That is one good thing, at least. the Union Government has done. "Members of the old par- ties should "understand with perfect _ clearness that the people will never put the Union Government out to put either of them in. - Coal is in demand, and will soem be a luxury.

Then began the deportation and massacre in Tre- bizond,~--first the old men and women, merchants, tradesmen and soldiers, -- all were taken "out of "the tity; groiip by group, and killed according to the beastly and ferocidys manner of the Turk. Those who whe too\sick and feeble to'walk were dragged by hands and legs into the sea. 2 "When they finished With these they turned to the young girls and ladies who had sought refuge at the Greek Arachnortaran. These were demanded and taken away by young Turks and policemen--why and where? God knows. "The last victims were the sinless little children, Spme were carried off, no one knows where, Others were fied in large sacks and thrown into the sea. Others were taken on boats and thrown into the sea~--the famous, historical Black Sea, that has always opened its wide mouth and devoured 80 many, leaving no trace. "Hundreds were packed into wag- gons and driven into the Euphrates; some were thrown in with stones tied to their feet Soldiers stood on the banks with guns and shot any who were able to swim. Several hundred at one time were put into an empty building and the doors locked. The doors were not opened again for two weeks, When they 'were opened, of course every child was dead. "Several hundreds were taken from the orphanages: carried out into the desert, thrown into heaps, kerosene poured over them, and the whole mass burned to death. At one time 'eigh- teen waggon-loads of children were driven into the river and drowned" The above are only a few of the ter. rible instances mentioned by the American 'missionaries But they are sufficient. They reveal what a blood- thirsty force Germany has let loose in fhe world, using the fanatical Turk as:her ready tool.

We've caught them in a patent cage, we've crushed them in their tracks, and often, in a seething rage, we've slain them with an ax. We've slugged them on the cellar stairs and on the pantry shelves; we've punished them with club and chairs until we sprained ourselves. We have beset the paths they trod with pitfall and with gin, x oh, and spread our tanglefoot abroad to rope the blamed thing in. And was our labor thrown away, our anguish all in vain?
