business people of the Town but this evening having present men from a matters would have to give place to Canadian Reconstruction and Development and he hoped that the same spirit of Patriotism manifested by the people Newmarket ever since the War commenced would still prevail We must show our ap preciation of the men who have overseas and be ready for the influx of emigrants which is sure to come this country as soon as things settle down in the old land l was with much pleasure that ho called upon to give an address on Re patriation of the Soldiers received a hearty ovation and delivered a most admirable address Because of his own experience in the Boor War he was able to diagnose the situation from the viewpoint of the returned soldier and demon strated it in a most superior manner He said The prob lems of the War are not over and it is of supreme importance that the people of Canada realize them This is the first opportunity that I have had to place the subject before the public and knowing as I do of your loyalty and patriotism in Newmarket there is no other body of men to whom I would pre fer to develop my ideas You have shown that whatever you want to do will yield to united effort and Never in history has demobilization been shown to be absorbed in practical life per cent of Crimean Veterans ended their lives in the Work Houses After the Civil War of

any nation in the world of which we may be justly proud and with an intelli gent understanding of lh sol diers position when he returns Canadians will treat them in a sympathetic manner and restore them to their former manhood Dr Abbott of Toronto on be ing introduced remarked that he Canadians had been in the Front Line Trenches abroad and now it is our turn to get into the Front Line Trenches a homo He said Newmarket helped to make the Army the success that it was now we look lo you to win the fight at home Your patriotic organization has compelled men to get together and they have learned to respect one another Work for a common purpose and think in terms of the community rather than individually and you will accomplish much This War will make the English speak ing world a unit Newmarket is to be congratulated on taking the first step effect of- your four years of patriotic work means much for the welfare of your town With such workers that you have you cannot fail in any proposition that is worthy There are three things we have to do in Canada we have to reconstruct our thinking People used to say that our country was going lo the dogs that the young men lacked the spirit of their fathers but they did not know The most prominent men of the United States are fulsome of their praise because of the quality of our Canadian army We must put a different value on the ma terial we have to make a big na tion The calibre of Canadian manhood is as good as the world can produce It slopped the Germans from getting to Calais It held the line when all military calculations wis absolutely impossible and adding undying glory to the name of Canada We must think in terms of great deeds 2nd we men of Canada can lake off our hats to the wo men They foiled suffered and saved for the boys over there in a manner that shows the pos sibilities of th womanhood of the country are beyond imagination The industrial service was mar vellous The wives of soldiers and girls with brains from the wealthy families enabled to accomplish who was considered in nit utter impossibility Where educated women a single problem of morals entered into situation The women paid the price anil the men of Canada today must pay the price for I sake of fu ture Ani big problems can be solved by the people of Canada and the one before us now is Ihc Returned soldier Newmarket
