The Indians in Canada are cluinmg the franchise on account of what they did in the great war. In this country 6U00 icdincn enlisttd with a very good showing. On tho Cape Croker reserve in Bruce of 67 men of military age 63 offered their services, 57 were accepted and 58 went overseas. This is a record that is hard to beat. Of those who went to France six mad* the supreme s«crilice and 22 were wounded, while one lust his right aru), 27 came buck and 20 are still overse.as. Such a record shows that the luMians are worthy sons oj Tecumseh of Moraf iantown fame in the war uf ltJ12 to 1815. The Tndiant at the Chipp-^wa Re«erTe at Southampton have an equally good record wuh their Cape Crok^•^ brctheren. Can Dogs Reason ? Scientist* tell us that man is the only animal endowed with the power of reason and that it is merely instinct which controls the lower orders of the animal wurld. Some have held otherwise and have seemed to prove conclusively thai at least some individuals of the brute creation are endowed with reasoning powers ap well as man. 8till, it is an accepted theory that the brute creation hi not endowed with reasoning powers but is movod entirely by instinct. A case recently came under our noiica which surely cannot be called instinctive action, and if it is not goed sound reason- ing power we are at a loss to place the aots in any ciitegory of living cu- sciousness. Our fellow citizen, Mr. John Wright, oivnsadog. a cross between the blood hound and English fox hound. One day a kettle of food was placed before him on muddy ground. He evidently did ms care for the location, so he picked up the kettle in his teeth and placed it on a platform, where he finished his meal in comfurt. On iDother occasion this winter when his master had the animal out in thi- woods, the former was surprised to see the canine nipping off low branches from a. spruce tree and nuking a bed v/ilh them on which to lie at its roots. If the .above two instances are not conclusive evidence of a hige order of reasoning powers we would like to know on whit basis they would be explained( The Orangeville Sun vouches for this: "On Monday evening about a dozen youpij girls from this townwent down to Caledon to meet the returning soldiers and one girl will remember it for some moons. Aftsr boarding the train she spied whu t she thou ght was her objective and immediately advanced. She bom- haidod him with kisses, and he, being used to gas and powder, made a counter attack. When she realized her mistake she retreatad and nearly fainted. The soldier laughingly remarked: "Orange- ville must be some grand town.
