Asked about the Arnprlor Calli- net Company, Limited, of which H. .l. Dilly, hood of the Home Bank was president. Mr. Clarkson said his estimate of ii loss of $115,000 was short of the mark.

‘There was ii iallge attendance at the Methodist Church yesterday morning, where the veterans of tihc South African War paraded in‘ a body and wilere the service was of ll special nature ‘in commemoration oi‘ the Faardeberg anniversary. An eloquent sermon was preached ‘hy Rev. Cnpt. Christopher Graham, who is himself a Sout-h African war veteran. Mr. Graham stressed the lfact that not by the sword alone are there victories to be won. There -is a moral fighting to be done in the common walks of life, where there is little or no applause to cheer the contestants. Fighting gives hardness and control; the spirit ls more real than tlhe body, and the srplrit will have no chance with ul-l unless we keep the body under control. 1t is the will of God that we should endure hardness. The speaker referred eloquently to t-he hardships endured in theSouth African war. and to the ‘fallen com- rades wlho sleep at Paardeberg. Some of those who had returned and were present, were members of the First South African conting- ent and later of the First Conting- ent ln the Great War. lit. was a splendid thing to see these men ae- 08111171941’ together‘ for divine wor - ship.

The soldiers pressed on. and with the dawn came victory: and victory w-lll surely come to us it we have the faith, endurance and hardness which they showed.
