could we afford It Where could we get that extra fifty millions a year Perhaps the Hound Tablets In Canada would contribute it themselves And then again perhaps they wouldnt If Premier Borden doesnt

was poetic license In first place the Premier was reckoning on half a mil lion from Canada Half a million must be taken as a round number It la the authorized limit hut the actual en listment is something over four hun dred and one thousand Likewise It Is poetic license lo say hat the whole four hundred and one thousand are in arms Many of them wear pens behind their ears instead of swords at their sides There arc twentyfive hundred of these khaki noncombatants in the Pay Office alone There are another two thousand Cana dian officers unattached around the south of Most of them had a chance lo gun powder if they would revert lo tho ranks bill they preferred to live colonels and majors rather than heroes Then there are Hie organizing bri gadiers on this side of the water and the various noncombatant services here and overseas that will never see fighting These men are In uniform but not in arms Altogether perhaps a hundred thousand ought to be sub tracted from Bordens gener ous metaphor lo come anywhere near the real figures of fighting men at the front either now or In the near future Premier should keep figures of speech within bound He is doing in what he has fre quently done here counting in the unfits the noncombatants the clerks lhe cooks and the that make up this padded of four hundred and one thousand To make good what we understand was his promise five hundred thousand fighting men at the -front- nearly two thousand men will have to be enlisted yet- You do not secure a clean bill for by indicating the rest of humanity Turning of Canal at Huron The Trent
