Partnership Grimsby At Niagara Falls ten thousand peoâ€" ple gathered at the station to _ say farewell. A number of bands took part in the demonstration. Twelve hunâ€" dred lunches provided by the citizens were placed aboard the trains, also a large quantity ‘of tobacco, magaâ€" zines and newspapers. Practically half of those in the crowd also had boxes for the members of the unit. Lt. Fleming Left Behind There was one bitterly disappointâ€" ed man and that was Lieut. Hamilton Fleming, of GRIMSBY, last year reeve of that municipality. When Col. Rose organized a party last Novemâ€" ber to go to Ottawa to ask Sir Sam Hughes for permission to recruit â€" & county battalion, he choose Reeve Fleming, a GRIMSBY fruit farmer, because of his prominence in Linâ€" coln county, as a member of the deâ€" putation. Sir Sam gave his word and the party assembled afterward in the rotunda of Chateau Laurier. Mr. Fleming, a South African veteran, inâ€" timated that he would like to be in (the battalion, and Col. Rose, who has the quality of knowing a man when he sees one, jumped at the chance. Mr. Fleming decided then and there to step out of civilian and municipal life and join the colors. Early in the year he took out his commission and in the remaining months he proved himself a valuable and efficient offâ€" cer. There was a pleasant little function in Niagara camp on Monday evening when a dozen officers of the 44th regâ€" iment, of which Col. Rose was the commanding officer until he gelinâ€" quished the post to take command of the 98th battalon, met to say goodâ€" bye to their old comrades and _ to make a presentation. Col. Monro, on behalf of the officer of the 44th., preâ€" sented Col. Rose with a pair of binâ€" oculars, and to each officer of the 98th. was given a handsome pipe. The following officers of the 44th. were presentâ€"Lt.â€"Col. D. J. C. Monro Major Vandesluys, Capt. McGarry, Capt. John Bartle, Capt. J. R,. Reilly, Lieut. J. C. Strickland, Lieut. Conâ€" quest, Lieut. L. B. McCleary, Lieut. H. L. Pursel, Lieut. E. P. Johnson, Lieut. J. H. Rolph, Lieut. W. W. Wright. A pleasant half hour was spent reâ€" calling old associations. The officers of the 44th. made plain their hearty congratulations and good wishes. Col. Rose in reply on behalf of the staff, thanked the donors for their generous gifts and their generous expressions of good will. 176th To Borden The departure of the 176th Batt. for Camp Borden on Wednesday morning, and the departure of the 98th on Wednesday evening, gives Welland town and county a strange sense of desolation, Soldiers in large numbers have grown to be very famiiâ€" liar pictures in all the local centres. The boys in the colors grew, indeed, to be a part, an interesting and picâ€" turesque part, of the communities. But that is no more. Welland has not been so denuded of soldiers since the day the war broke out. It is unlikely, too, that so many men in uniform will ever be seen on our streets again. A special train on the Grand Trunk carried off D Company of Niagara Rangers on Wednesday morning. This company with such popular officers Seized with pneumonia two months ago, however, he was able to return to camp on a visit only this week, but he was not sufficiently recovered to go with his battalion. He feels his loss keenly and the commanding offiâ€" cer also very much regrets being for ced to leave without him. At GRIMSBY a large crowd gatherâ€" ed to see the train go through, and they gave the boys a hearty cheer as they went whizzing by at sixty miles an hour. as Major Dell, Capt. Batcheller, Lieut. Harry Hanan, has in the ranks and as nonâ€"coms some of the finest young men Canada has produced. Despite the early hour of their departure and some uncertainty as to the time they would actually leave, there was a large crowd at the station to say farewell. Col. Sharpe, who rejoined his batâ€" talion last week after an absence of some weeks, was present to depart with the boys. Though his health is much improved it is plain that he is not yet his old self. Escorted by the 126th and 134th batalions, the 98th took its departure from Camp Niagara, after farewells by hundreds of relatives present. Lt.â€" Gov. Hendriec was among those who bade farewell. Walker S. Field Walker S. Field, the Smithville man reported missing some days ago, is the only son of Isaac Field, of that village. He is a single man, 26 years of age. He enlisted in November, 1914, with the Canadian Mounted Rifles of the second contingent, and had been on the firing line since November, 1915. For some time previous to enâ€" listing he had resided at Queenston. He is a grandson of Nathan Field of Smithville, a veteran of the Fenian raid volunteers, who is now 83 years of age. Walker Field served in B. Squadron, 2nd. Dragoons in peace tiirilile’ and was a crack shot with the rifle. - At Niagara Falls while the trains were being transferred from the Mich igan Central to the Grand Trunk, Mayor Clendenning and the good peoâ€" ple of our sister city seized the occaâ€" sion to present gifts to alleviate the tedium of a long journey. The ladies of Niagara Falls gave the boys hunâ€" dreds of boxes containing tasty lunâ€" ches, gifts of tobacco, cigars and cigarettes to all the men were made on behalf of the city of Niagara Falls and the town of Welland by Mayor Clendenning, Reeve M. Vaughan and Deputyâ€"Reeve W. J. Best. MILITARY NEWS OF 98th. Leaves Niagara The 98th overseas battalion left Niagara camp on Wednesday afterâ€" noon for the east to complete its training. The battalion went out of camp in two trains of eleven _ cars each. K Gifts from the 44th. THE â€" DISTRIGT ABOLISH MANURE PILES, EMPTY GARBAGE C ANS SKIDOO "HIS FLYNESS" This is the time of the year when all enterprising nunicipalities are having their "clean up" days. Let us make them thcrough, not forgetting the horse and c.w stables ard yards. The best time to swat the fly is beâ€" fore he is batcheod,. Flies ‘breed more in horse manure than any Oother place, not even excepting the neglected garâ€" bage can. To neglect these breeding places in May and buy fly traps in August is paying the price for a cerâ€" tain kind of unpreparedness. â€" The price paid is not simply the "filthy lucre" that is spent for screens and fly traps, but we positively know that thousands die every summer from diseases carried by flies. In spite of this fact we still look upon the fiy as a mecessary evil, an annoyance to be tolerated, instead of a death-dcalfir to be exterminated, Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Snetsinger reâ€" ceived a letter from both Archie and Ralph toâ€"â€"dar. Archie was only in l!ng lang three weeks when he was taken down with measles and was only in hospital two weeks when he was taker sick with enteric fever, He had bceen in bed three weeks with tne fever when he. wrote thigs letter himâ€" self, so was over the worst, as they had given him something to eat that day besides milk and barley ‘water. His fever was up to 104 one day. ‘"Not ‘bad for an amateur," he said. Flies do not travel very far, so the fly problem is purely municipal and there is no danger of invasion from the country. If ‘all of the manure could be cleaned out of all the stabes in a town, this month, and kept thereâ€" after in tight manure boxes, and all garbage cans emptied twice a week, there would be so few flies this sumâ€" mer that we would meed no screens, fly paper, fly traps or fly poison. Baldâ€" headed men and nervous women would have the vacation of their lives â€""a consummation devoutly to be wished." ARCHIE SNETSINGER ILL WITH ENTERIG FEVER He expected to have khad Ralph to see him the day before, but Ralph could not get his pass so they have not been able to see one another vetl since Archie landed in England. Ralph had been ‘at Epsom for tivo weeks when he wrote on June 26. He was up before the Board of Officers the Friday before to see if hoe was fit to leave. "Oh, we will give you four woeeks more Physical Training, n« see if that will help your arm, so he will not be able to go back to thke front yet a while. He had been _ a month at Balsham Convalscent Camp before being sent to Epsom. Grimsby Boy Reported _ Wounded "Somewhere in France." Particulars of his Wounds Have not yet Been Received.
