Returned Soldiers Support Op- position (By Newspaper Enterprise Ass'n.) | Ottawa, Ont., g. 19.—Democracy has permeated Canada and a 8 movement, backed by retu diers, has been launched against the granting of or honoring of titles in the dominion. Such a bill is now before parliament and {s believed to have the backing of a majority. This movement is due to the contin- ued evidence that politics is being played to get titles and that rich profi. teers make large donations to worthy movements for the sole purpose of ob- taining a title. It is charged titles are obtained by ase of the influence of party who in turn use their best offices with the king to gain ‘titles for their clients. A title is an empty honor in Canada and carries no privileges. Most of those who gain one immediately leave for England to claim a seat in the house of lords.

C., Aug. 19.—The| soldiers in cantonments throughout | the country are being taught the art of handling a wounded man and _car- rying him with as little additional pain as possible—and it is an art. The possibilities in this work are being demonstrated by W. E. Longfellow. field agent of the Life Saving section of the American Red Cross, who for years has taught first aid and life- saving. The carries he uses were taught by him to policemen, firemen, railroad operatives, miners, lumbermen, long: shoremen and quarrymen, and have been adapted to military uses. Weighing 260 pounds, Longfellow maks_ his- lessons interestng even with the biggest recrifts. He has carried a circus freak who weighed 509 pounds by one of the methods he is now. teaching. Students who have learned his work have carried him, though they weighed as little as 135 pounds. ral He has instructed the men at all the naval training stations, the Ma- rine training’ stations. and the regu- lars at Camps Meade.
