For MILITIA RE-ORGANIZATION NOT GOING FORWARD WITH EN- THUSIASM DESIRABLE. a Canadian Military Gazette Points Out That the Returned Man Must Not Look Down Upon Those Who Did Not Serve. Canadian Military Gazette. It is a matter of common know- ledge that the reorganization of our various militia corps is not going forward with that enthusiasm which is desirable. This is not at all to be wondered at. The country as a whole is war weary, tired of all that pertains to it, is inclined to say, "Oh! there's plenty of time, there is not going to be an- other war for a while anyway," and the individual who served in the war is most war-weary of all, and not at all anxious to don khaki for a season or so to come. Then we have the officers of the old militia who' for one reason or an- other did not get to the war, through no fault at all of their own, in the vast majority of cases, and who feel a bit shy in consequence, often smart- ing under the feeling that they are subject to adverse criticism on the part of a great many who do not know the facts, but who are quick to sneer and insinuate, While first chance should un- to fill the officer's ranks, we might just as well realize at the very out- set that a successful reorganization is next to impossible, without the hearty co-operation of those men of the old militia who, through adverse circumstances, did not get overseas.' To run a militia régiment or bat- ES, our pure bread has a 'worthy 'purpose. It brings health agd strength and a meal-time satisfaction to the folks whe partake of it regularly. One slice calls for a loaf, one loa forms the habit - * 5 tery in peace time is no sasy matter, not inexpensive, uithar, very well to theorize and say that there should be no expense to the individual, that the govern- ment should pay the piper, ete., but We are confronted with facts, not sncorien, and these ficts are other- w ; There Is many a returned man with an excellent war record who simply could not undertake the .re- CASTORIA | Signature of twenty-seven years, the Ryans, fath- er and son, have carried on business in Newburgh.

The Grand Opera House was crowded on Saturday evening for the final performance of '""The Girl of My Dreams." During the perform- ance a number of those who played | leading parts were presented with bouquets, while one lad received a box of candies. ' Fifty Years of Wedded Life. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas McDonald, Carleton Place, obderved the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage a week ago. They were nfarried on April 7th, 1870. The old couple have our heartiest congratulations. Mr. Me- Donald is eighty-five years of age and his life partner is over the four- score. To Give Royal Welcome. The official board of St. Andrew's Church, 76th Street and Columbus avenue, New York, invited the friends of the pastor, Dr. Allan Mac- Rossie, to the morning service, yes- terday. Dr. MacRossie began his fourth year as pastor of St. Andrew's at this service and the desire was to give him a royal welcome. Case of Kidnapping. *When Edward Whitford, South Branch, Glengarry County, died a few months ago he left his two children to the care of his father. Last week, it is alleged, Mrs. Whitford and two men, one of them flourishing a re- volver, kidnapped the childr@n from near the school house at South Branch, in spite of the protests of the teacher, and made off in a buggy. Reserved Decision. At the Brockville police court Al- lan Kavanagh and Thomas Graham, of McIntosh Mills, appeared on a charge of damaging property lodged by James Warren. The case concern- ed the breaking of a chain on and the removing of a rowboat, owned by Warren, from a hunting lodge situat- ed on Charleston Lake. The magis- trate reserved decision. The Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of the Camp Louise Club was held in P. C. Mac- nee's office in Picton, when the following officers were elected: N. D. Gilbert, president; James H. Porte, vice-president; Pi C. Macnee, secre- tary; S. B. Gearing, treasurer; direc- tors, N. D. Gilbert, Jas. H. Porte, P. C. Macnee, S. B. Gearing, W. J. Car- ter. A good summer's sport is being looked forward to. At a Venerable Age. John A. Box, who recently went from Burnstown to Calabogie to spend the remainder of his days in the fine new home of hig son, John S. Box, has reached the patriarchal age of ninety-eight years. The old gentleman is in remarkably good con- dition 'physfeally exeept that his eyesight has gone wrong. Born in England in 1822, he came to Canada when a boy. -------------- Shipped Hay to West. W. Bell, manager of the Merch- ants' Bank, Gananoque, had a tele- graphic request this week from Cor- nation, Alberta, to know what quan- tity of hay he could secure for im- doubtedly be given to returned men, mediate shipment to the.west. His enquirigs resulted in securing four organization of g corps, or even a leading part in such reorganization. He must mend his financial fences, fallen into bad decay because of long absence at the front, and anything tending to make large calls upon his time, apart from his business, he must perforce refuse. On the other hand, there are not a few men who saw no service who are none the less most capable or- ganizers, and real enthusiasts along militagy lines, men too old for active service conditions, but still young enough for the work of establishing and maintaining a corps, men enjoy- ing the respect of their respective communities, in large measure, an in- dispensable adjunct to successful command. There must be give and take, there must be self-sacrifice, if our militia is soon to emerge once more as a thing of moment. It is for the re- turned man to show clearly to him who did not go, provided he had a good excuse for not doipg so, that he does not look down upon him, and it is for tiy latter to be less sensi- tive, less looking for slights on the part of the men from overseas. An atmosphere of mutual confidence is what we need now more than ever before, and till we get it we need not look . for a very satisfactory re- establishment of the Canadian militia. It is to be hoped, too, that the militia department will not insist too greatly on complete physical fitness in the officers of the force. After all, whit we are looking for now is men who cap and will give us back well organized and well disciplined corps of citizen soldiers. Many a returned wounded man, who will never again be fit for active service, 'is still quite well enough to play this important part, and very often, too, because of those very wounds, he has an influence with the young men who are the disirables for a new force.

Harold Vanderwater, son of Mrs. Fred Vanderwater, Picton, met with an accident when a rifle was acciden- | tally discharged, the bullet entering | the leg near the knee, The rifle be- | longed to young Vanderwater, and | he and his friend, Clifford Colliver, | went to the grounds behind the col- | legiate to shoot at a mark. It ap- pears that the rifle had been fired by | one of the boys, and while Colliver | was reloading it, it went off.

A., who gave a helpful address on atmosphere, emphasizing the strong position that women occupied in creating the proper kind of atmos- phere which was so important in fos- tering the right kind of ideals. The thank offering provided a neat sum, which will supplement the furnish- ing funds of the auxiliary. The dedi- catory prayer was offered by Mrs. G. A. Bateman. After the programme, | the refreshment committee in charge | of Mrs. R. H. Ward served all pre- sent with tea and cake. mn BRING AUTO FROM ITS WINTER NEST No Harm to Tires Unexposed To Heat, Sunlight and Weight.
