"The speech of George G. Moore, of Detroit, though intended as a warn- ing to the people of the United States contains an 'even more Serious warn- ing to the people of Canada. He declares-- 1 That there are 2,500,000 Ger- man and Austrian reservists in the United States who. are not naturalized "Phat these are-subject to the Kaiser and report regularly to the German "The.boy, are archig: _ Cheer up comrades, never' yield. We are ready for the fray, And we'll surely gain the day: And we'll drag some fans and - samples from the field. 1t's a terrible strain to'striggle with 141,000 other people. in your effort to sec the Fair in half a day.

Here you get acquainted with ing the same | Peis on that fhe do do in said facts, itis high time that Canadian' men should be trained in such a man- ner that they would not be helpless in case of an invasion. While the standing army of the United States is not large, it is said that rifie clubs are quite common, and that the average American citizen is "| well qualified to become a 'soldier on hort notice.
