If They Were Cheaper the Game Might Be More Popular. If some one could invent a pushball that could be made at a reasonable cost the game would be more popular. The enormous cost of pushballs has made it possible for only a very few to own them, and they have been remt- | od out at a bigh price to those wanting ase The pushbay is: ." The outside covering of a Dusk! 1s made of cowhide leather." This cov: foot ering is composed of twenty strips, which are sewed together by hand. Bach of these strips is between nine and ten feet long, or half the ciretine - | ference of the ball. The strips are widest in the middle, tapering uni- formly to points at either end, the poles of the ball, where they are fur- ther secured by leather caps sewed wer was made of rubber cloth cut in sections and eemented together. The materials for this ball cost about $175. The game is played on a field with a goal at each end, each team trying to push the ball through the oppo- nents' goal. It is sometimes used to ! get baseball teams in condition during the early days. The game is played in Europe, both in England and on the continent. One of the most spectacular and thrilling variants of the game is that played by horsemen in the west. It requires two teams of mounted play- | ers, whose object algo is to drive the ball through the goal of the opposing side. It is pushed by the horses, which must be as well trained as polo ponies to maneuver it dexterously, and the | game calls for great expertness in the riders. Cowboy saddles and dress are the correct outfit for this game. --St. i Nicholas. MANITOBA'S MINES. | Province Posscsses Much Mineral Wealth to Be Developed.

CHAPLAINS AT THE FRONT Fave Proved Themselves to Be Members of the Church Militant. Writing on the work of the €ana- dian chaplains in France, Captain Charles G. D. Roberts sends an ar- ticle to the Minister of Militia, im part as follows: The work of the Canadian Chap~ lain Service has been so successful; 80 rich in results, and conducted along such broadly human lines, that it is impossible to do it anything approaching justice within the space of a newspaper article. . . .'The coment of the whole structure has been a unity of purpose and a har- mony in effort which are a constanf ipfluence fer good among our men; and which may well serve as an ex< gmple to the Churches at large. The representaives of each Church or creed are supreme within their own fold. The organiastion of the Canadian Chaplain Service, as & whole, guards the interests of eael eommunion, and guards them im- partially. I have seen an energetic young Jewish rabb! coming to & canon of the Church of Fngland for assistance {o enable him more ef- Yectively to minister to his scattered Hebrew flock. All rivalries are strictly eliminated, except the high rivalry of zew!, self-sacrifice, and. courage. It 18 not, by any means, to mat- ters spiritual alone that the tireless energies of the C.C.S. are devoted: v teedooks the tecreation, and entertainment of the troops, by means of a highly-organ~ | ized eystem of soldiers' institutes, canteens, and ¢inema shows, whieh keep them out. of mischisf or bore: dom during the period when they come back from the trenches to the rost camps. This gystem is run om strictly business principles, but on a merely nominal margin of profit, and the accounts are officially audit~ ed by the Paymaster's Department; Narrow as is the margin, it ylelds & handsome profit, which is returned to the men again in whatever form may seem to be most needed. No small part of it goes to the provision of free coifoc--hot coffee--at all hours of day or night, for the men who arc entering or leaving the trenches. But it is when a battle is on that the Church militant peculiarly justi- fles its title. Where the woun and dead are falling, there you wil find the "padres.'"" They are by no means confining themselves to their spiritual functions. They are help- tng and inspiring the stretcher- bearers, the ambulance men, the sur geons. Their activities are limited only by the needs of the situation. For instance, during the second bats tle of Ypres the padres in different quarters of the battlefield organized voluntary stretcher-bearer parties; guided them up into No Man's Land; and worked with them night after night in finding amd bringing out the wounded. In this task one of the padres was taken prisoner. At the Samme, too, one of the padres eor< ganized a rescues party, led it up under deadly shell fire, and brought baek ten wounded men who had been lying in a trench for four days. The trench was oue cut off from our lines and occupied in part by the Ger mans. Awmother of our padres was wounded, while rescuing Australian wounded at Mouquet Farm. Sufflee to say that three C.M.G.'s and five Military Crosses have been awarded dmomg the padres, while many more such homors have been amply deserv< od. It is significant to note that of the thirty padres who left Canada with our first contingent in Septem< ber, 1914, there are now only | vouiaintug in the fsle An.Unanswerabio Argument.
