An even larger audience attendâ€" ed the second performance than had been present at the first, and. it was freely admitted by all that the youngâ€" sters, who had put on an . unusual performance on the first occasion, even excelled themselves the second night.

The particular something doing twenty years ago was Mr. Christian in his sad Ladiesâ€"25¢ Key men in the Records section are the clerks. Thirsse nmen are drawn from every Canadian unit in Italy and their job is to ensure that a complete record is kept of every man in their unit, and to inform units of changes through Part II orders. These N.C.O.‘s have had years of experience in their icb and take a personal interest in the men whose records they keep. Their lot is not an enviable one, parâ€" ticularly when their regiments are in action, at which time they work night, Perhaps the most interesting departâ€" ment to the soldier is the Personal Services branch whose primary conâ€" cern is the individual. This branch is divided into five namely, the discipline and pay section which is responsible for the verification of the legality of every punishment awarded to a soldier; the posting and transfers section which deals with crossâ€"posting or â€"transfers ofindividuals from. one corps to ancther; the postal tracing section whose function is the prompt reâ€"routing cof mail when a soldier‘s address is changed; records section, and finally the casualties and effects secticn. The Records section is undoubtedly one cf the most important branches of Army administration from the standpoint of the scldier. The comâ€" plete technical history of every officer and rank is kept there, concerning such information as nextâ€"ofâ€"kin, serâ€" vice, promction, reversion, trades pay, punishment and leaves. Most importâ€" ant from the pcstâ€"war angle is the detailed recording of injuries, illness and w:ounds, as accurate data may be the deciding factor in after years when a man applies for a pension. _ Under the present "triâ€"wound" scheme of sending men back to Canâ€" ada when they have been thrice wounded, it is of the utmost importance that each individual casualty be enterâ€" ed on the soldier‘s M. â€"F. M. 4. â€" A dcuble chetck is kept on this by casâ€" ualties section and the records clerks. is â€"another item of extreme importance and a close check is mainâ€" tained over the movements ¢f every soldier. ' The Liamison Branch is the link beâ€" tween Echelon and C:rps. With liaâ€" ison cfficials at the various formation headquarters assistance is easily given to field units with their administraâ€" tive problems. The Organization Branch os primâ€" arily concerned with the manâ€"power situat.on and consequently maintains comprehensive statistics on all phases affecting Canad.an trocps in Italy. The reinforcement section of this branch is responsible for the posting of reinâ€" forcements from week to week to meet deficiencies in the field units.

Fcr readers in Canada and Newâ€" foundland the chapter on "The Bible in South America," will repay careful reading, and in days when Religious Equcation in the Schools is receiving special atetntion, what is said under the heading, "The Bible, the Teacher and the Child" is indeed timely. Whilst dealing with present war conâ€"| ditions adequately the whole, Report| breathes great expectations for the future. "A World of Readers" aptly describes a world in which literacy is gaining with every decade. Dr,. Frank G. Laubach and his work get adequate appreciation. This fact alone makes / the object of the Bible Society. "the . wider circulation of the Holy Seriptures | without note or comment," cgligatory on the Christian conscience. The partâ€" nership of nations is stressed in this connection, and Canada‘s share in the partnership is recognized and duly apâ€" preciated, Perhaps the most striking chapters in the Report deal with the work in China, India and European Lands. Reference is made with wise caution to the prospects of the work in Russia after the war, and there is a decidedly optimistic note in the forecast. "The Bible has both a personal and a social work to do." These words from the Preface give the keynote of the Popular Report, never perhaps more encouraging, in spite of the res«â€" trictions and limitations imposed by the world war on the work of the Briâ€" tish and Foreign Bible Society. i the Records section are Thirsse nmen are drawn inadian unit in Italy and c ensure that a complete Ci1ecaAlnNy gainue at tiiae i@aSt imigut Dy a stcoure oi BIiY 1@yivl, ia iwmapic Le not play long, sunce he nad be over the eye in a game at S The Aiiâ€"Stars passing was very * ‘and tneir stars were Wilson, Bak * / Gordon. <" » 3 iA C Should Johnny die the news to Canrecc cord of his burial a: letter of condolence Canuck.

Cyr‘s story was that he had gone to the woodshed for some wood and found the bottle and had just picked it up when the police grabbed him. He swore it was not his liquor and that he had never seen the bottlé before. _A «brotherâ€"inâ€"law gave eviâ€" dence to the effect that. it was his bottle and he had left it outfide beâ€" cause he did not think his brotherâ€"in, â€"law would want it in the house. The magistrate was curious as to where the young fellow thought he got the botittle but all he could get out of the witness was that "some guy must have given it." The magistrate was not impressed. He was not impressed either when he read the previous conâ€" viction of the accused for illegalities in regard to liquor. : A young lady charged with vagâ€" rancy pleaded guilty, but asked To be allowed to say a word to thne court.
