North Ontario Times "Major Sam Sharpe; M.P., at the patriotic meeting (in Uxbridge) set at rest many a misrepresentation that had been circulated concerning re-l cruiting in the County of Ontario. After making an' earnest appeal for liberal subscriptions, Major Sharpe said that tlfere had been a studied at- tempt to misrepresent the officers of the 34th Regiment. Weeks ago he had made representations to Col. Logie, in charge of the Toronto Dis: trict, that a more vigorous campaign for 'recruits should be inaugurated, and, that Col. Bick, whos in charge of otir Overseas Battalion at Niagara, should hand over the work to Major Sharpe. This has not yet been done, | A telegram was sent to him some weeks ago to proceed with recruiting, and he immediately called a meeting of officers in Oshawa, but 'before the date of the meeting another telegram was sent cancelling these instructions. "Friday, Ma or Sharpe was in Ot- tawa in connection with this and other matters, and Senator Lougheed,acting; Minister of Militia, gave instructions that in all 'cases where officers com- manding a regiment were on overseas duties, the work of recruiting, should be handed over to the second in com- mand, If this order be carried out, Major Sharpe will have charge of the recruiting, and an active campaign will commence." [3 While it may be wise for the officer on the ground to have charge of the. the recruiting, there can be no doubt '{ that the effectiveness of his campaign would be greatly increased by having associated with him a man who is going to the front.--Editor STAR. mi A Rare Coin Mr. Ira Belknap found a cent where the first cabin was built in the Town. ship of Reach by Reubén Crandell.
