For the sake of those who have made the Great Sacrifice, and of those now overseas or in training, every citizen must give the best service possible:~ No one need feel "out of it" when the great day of Victory comes, but gvéryone must qualify now by sharing in the sacrifices which the War demands. Where there is no active â€" representative erganization, it is suggested that one be formed at the earliest moment. It should be nonâ€" partisan (in the broadest sense), and represent every interest affected by war conditions. for our problems are essential if we would meet the present and future needs.

Rumors of invasion from the Southb by the American Colonists wouig have been nearly as circumstantial as the accounts of Proâ€"German raids are toâ€" dayâ€"and with considerably more rea son. The soldiers would have beer called out ‘and the barricades, someâ€" where near St. Catherine Street would have been banged, barred and bolted. But two centuries bring unheardâ€"of changes in their wake. The Troquois, whose allegiance to the British cause was one of the most serious thorng in the side of the French colonists of Quebec are still with us, but they are merged in the great union of races that makes of Canada the roming naâ€" ion of the twentieth century. Yet * ne thing the Iroquois paye not hanged, They are keen for ighting ever they were; only the imanner of that fighting has changed. The Tomahawk is exchanged for the bayâ€" onet. the bow and arrow for the Ross rifle, just as the seventeenth century arquebus of the white soldier is exâ€" changed for the machine gur. Lieutenant J. R. Stacey, in civil life a real estate broker of Toronto, has made the Ritzâ€"Carlton his headâ€" quarters up to lakt Monday for mis re cruiting campaign among the ITroâ€" quois Indians of Caughnawaga. Lieuâ€" tenant Stacey is himself an TIroquois and his regiment, the 114th Battalion Overseas, C. E. F., Brock‘s Rangers, is the only Indian corps in existcnce. There are over 1,000 _men in the Brock‘s Rangers, of whom 609 are Inâ€" dians, and it is hoped that wher it goes to the front from Camp Borden it will be wholly Indian, Among the Indians forming the bat talion there are representatives from each one of the six Nations, who are now located in Ohsweken anai Brantâ€" ford.. Delewares, Hurons, Iroquois, Abenakis are included, and they unmâ€" ber men whose physiqitle is on the average far higher than white reâ€" cruits. Thus out of the sixty men enâ€" listed by Lt. Stacey only two were reâ€" jJected by the Medical Board, a proâ€" portion of acceptance unequalled aryâ€" where. Two Indian ministers are attached to the battalion, the Rev. Thos. White beans, of Oka, and the Rev. Mr. Oakes of Cornwall Island. The Battalion iz made memorable by the fact that it constitutes the first time in the history of the Empnire for Indians to be sent overseas to figrt the Empire‘s battles. Nor should it be concluded that these are thke only Indians to fight in France. Hundreds andhundreds are mergel in other battalions, and that in spite of the fact that the Indian has no vote in this country. This is an injustice to the race which they are going the best When Majorâ€"General Sir Sam Hughes authorized the raising of the regiment, it was placed undes: the command of Lt.â€"Col. Andrew Thompâ€" so, whose family has been intimately connected with Indians for the last hundred years. | Liecutenant Stacey, whose Indian name is Sawatizs Taâ€" wanladah, was specially sent to raise Iroquois recuitss in Quebec and has been so successful that he enlisted 6 men alone from Caughnawaga, a fine record from a village of 2,000 populaton. war. if the Term "brave" may be an plied to a literary effort.
