And our men are fresh and strong, and the Germans are tired, and one of ihese day: news from over there—I know i So.Lieut. Hector MacQuarrie of H. M. Royal Artillery opened an address at the Auditorium last evening which; never -will be forgotten by the 1,200 who, beard it. For. the five hundred who were turned away there will be only the printed word—they will lose’ the’ magic of the canny Scotch lad’s} unusual delive: his enthusiasm and spontanity; his effervescing good hum-:: regula: or and cheerfulness; his optimism— above all his sublime confident that right is might; that the allies are in- vincible; that they must and will tri- umph. MacQuarrie devoted little time to re- viling: or ‘belittling the Hun; he spoke ndt at‘all of atrocities, except to say that the soldiers in the ranks, except! trenches, while the Hu!

Lieut, MacQuarrie’s talk was pre-| ceded by.a brief statement from Sergt. Fred (©. Havelock of the Princes Pat’s, one of our own. Very ham some and manly in his Canadian uni-| Frequently, after a breathle: form, Sergt, Havelock talked with his} audience, rather than to them, He ad- vised Bismarck fathers and mothers and brothers and sisters and wives) and sweethearts and sons and daught- ters’ of soldiers over there not to worry about ‘their physical condition. He described the soldier of. the allies as’ well fed; well clothed, well quart-| ered. “We have plenty to eat; plenty of clean clothes; fresh underwear.| le We come out of the trenches dirty, it; that is’ true, and h, clean things. Never has a| soldier been so cared for and looked after. So, when your hoy becomes a trifle dispirited and writes home that his dinner didn’t suit him, or that there was not enough’ of it, don’t wor-! ry. If he doesn’t have enough for) with the Germans in America, that one meal, he’ll get double for the next} to make up for it. Your boysare be-! cnoke of the task of the father and'= ing given the very best treatment in’ the world. Always remember that.”| 2 A Big Proposition. c In part, Lieut MacQuarrie said: “Today your country and mine, Fyance, Italy, Portugal and the rest of} us, are up-against a big proposition—| that of licking the German. To the; people of America twelve months ago! the job did- not seem a particularly difficult one. You Americans are such! optimists. Wihen Uncle Sam decided} fo fight Germany, to you people it seemed the war was about over;your) boys would go to France and they'd soon teach the Germans a good lesson, The Kaiser must be crazy—of course he'll be whipped—now that our boys are on the job. But the affair has not| gone so quickly as you had thought! it would: Uncle Sam has been in the! war for nearly a year now, and the news that has come from the front) has not been good news. Today you folks realize that the paoposition is aj big one. “When a group of business men) mother’ of invention,” seok to carry off a scheme, they take the necessary steps to understand one another as well as possible, That simplifies matters, So today it is es- sential that the American people should understand the British people —-for these two nations are bound to- gether tighter than they have ever! were without fuel and the mercury been before, Upon the strength of' continued to drop lower and lower in this tie depends the final outcome of; the butb, caused a versatile automo- the war.
