Arrived here at~7 a.m. yesterday, and I am writing this in a German dugout, a& good, deep safe | one, that would need a very big shell to do any damage to me here.

You cannot imagine ll the noise. The Germans can never hold anything in face of our artillery, and their aeroplanes dare not come near us, or if they do they are Im= mediately shot down.

Would very much lke to collect souvenirs to send home to the children, but really have not time, as I am terribly busy. "The great thing is that we have the Hun licked. His morale is very bad, and our morale was never bet- ter. Our men take everything as it comes, and we have had some serious times in the past month. "The adjutant's job is by far the busiest in the battalion, but there is nothing like work. "We had official notification from the army commander that the work of the Canadian division was the best in this vicinity. (You must know where we are) since July lst. Our battalion was given a hard job and we did it to the King's taste. I am proud to belong to the battalion. The sacrifices our men are making are wonderful.

"I am now the fourth senior offi- cer in the battalion. Two weeks ago 1 was eighth. I will probably get my majority before long. However, I am not worrying very much about that." Capt. Cunningham has been in France for more than thirteen months, and in that time has only had six days' 'leave. He went to Prats about the twenty-second in rank.

WAR THE ONE TASK FOR ALL MEN Says Laurier at Big Liberal Banquet at London, Ont. London, Ont., Oct. 12,--Ontario Liberalism turned a new page here last night in the great banquet of the Liberal Club Federation, which was characterized by a vigor and concen- trated poltical enthusiasm that has not marked Liberalism in many years. Fifteen hundred men from all parts of the province assembled to hean Sir Wilfrid Laurier, N. W. Rowell, Premier Norris, of Mani- toba, and other speakers, and unre- strainedly endorsed the policies of' reform laid down in broad and patri- otic lines of statesmanship. '"This war has got to be fought to a finish. Germany has to be fought firmly and resolutely until v'ctory is won, but then when it is won let the better angels of our nature again guide. us in our course," declared Sir Wilfrid Laurier in a phrase that is destined to become 'familiar in our mou as household words." Sir 'Wilfrid, while criti Dominion government for its extra- vagance on civil administration dur- ing the perilous years of the war, looked beyond the conflict of the present in & way such as even he has rarely exceeded in his long and honored career. In a speech of the rarest charm, he took his breathless hearers up into heights of nobility, of forgiveness even for sins which are now being committed. TO SAVE BOSTON Sin--A Japanese ng the From Inilquity : "Billy Sunday." Boston, Oct. 12.--From far off Japan comes the latest evangelist to "gave" Boston from iniquity and sin. He is the Rev. K, 8. Hirade, of Tokio, where he is known as the Japanese "Billy Sunday" He was converted to Christianity several years ago by missionaries and has conducted ex- tensive - evangelistic campaigns in Japan. He heard of the many agnos- tics and. infidels among ton's "high-brows" and e here to preach Christianity to them. - ' Hebrews' Request Denied. 'Windsor, Oct. 12.-A request from a aumber of Hebrew residents of Windsor to the Board of Education, that they be allowed the use of Mercer Street School five nights 'a week, where cliildren of their race could be taught their own religion, entertained emming, was refused by the on the '| ground that it might catabiinh a dan- # gerous precedent. usual interest dealing with life in dear old Ireland. There is bacon and greens, jaunting cars and Sham- rocks. A real Irish fair! and' last, but not least, the fairies : elaborate musical scoré of Irish airs will accompany the picture. A two- part Keystone comedy. A two-reel Lubin drama, "The Half Wit," and one-reel Vim comedy are on the bill, The vaudeville consists.of Ford and Richards in a singing and talking act that is something differemt. 4 \ - At Griffin's. Donald Brian, and one of the three stellar -attrac- tions of the recent success, "Sybil," ingly funny comedy produced by the Famous Players Film Co. on the Paramount Programme, "The Smug- glers." attraction at Griffin's on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. As the title of this photoplay com- edy clearly indicates, it is replete with adventures, thrills and episodes both amusing and stirring. But underneath the fabric of romance and drama that are connected with the innocent smuggling of valuable pearls by John Battleby Watts is a strong foundation of laughter, for the director, of the production, the well kpown Sidney Olcott, has never per- themselves too seriously, and the re- sult is that the comedy of the plot is ever-present and irresistible, A wealthy American promoter, John Battleby Watts, was, adeording to the story of '"The Smugglers," a breakfast food, but not the first mas to be bent under a bale of a million dollars. Rather than go through life under this heavy load, Watts decides to go through a good part of it, instead. He obtains the first thing a man needs to rid him- self of money--a wife; then he takes her and her sister Amy to London, where he increases the party con- siderably by adding the Hon. Chol- latter's marriage to Amy. leave England for Paris, and engage a suite of rooms in one of the fash- iomable hotels. In addition to the above comedy drama, the management also shows one of its popular Athletic Weeklies, showing the various champions in different lines of sport and pastimes. The vaudeville, Savane's posing dogs, is one of the best trained animal acts in vaudeville to-day. It also shows another "of those Musty Suffer com- edies, one continual scream, This completes a bill that should prove highly interesting and entertaining o all.
