MISS '1`0dd told how 150,000 Cana-

_dian soldiers now on overseas duty, had been instructed in all branches of First Aid by tthe St.. John’s organlza. tion and an idea of the good work done thereby needs no imagination.

Miss Todd is n moat interesting

'speaker with ti refreshing style and ther talk was much appreciated.

Following ther address, assisted by

two Boy Scouts. she gave n practical demonstration oi' first aid work, using the tri-angular bandage and followed this with the two most successful me- thods ot' res-uscltating-an apparently drowned person.

"The National Anthem" sung by the entire audience brought the meeting _ to 21 <=l0se at 9.25. lt was a most iii-

structive anti interesting address.

Miss Todd leaves this morning to ad- dress other meetingg at nsumnmeg-side,

Atherton and Kensington.

PEACE RUIIIIIIRS Hll

BEIIIIN BUUIISE

LONDON. Sept. 17.-Peace rumors

instead of cheering the Berlin Bourne cause black days. An Amsterdam special despatch to the Times on 'l`liursday says: "Tlio' Westezeltung's iirrlin correspondent telegrapha that conferences between the Kaiser and various army- commanders at Berlin is regarded in political circles as be- ing of special importance.

“\'orwaerts yesterday said that the

liourse has experienced two em- phatically weak days. The exchange fell on September 11. temporarily ten to twenty per cent. For many stocks readiness to accept was so small that in peat-e times under normal circum- stances the people would have spoken ot' in as a black day. The causes oi this striking decline are not well founded on the Bourne movement, but simply and solely on tears ot peace.

"V0Y`“'5~€¥`fS Says the cause 0! the

weakness of the German exchanges is that great capitalists have already sold or traiistorretl their shares to sniailer people ivlio are morn nervous and also who at the high rates where- at they purchased incur more risk. 'l`ill now the Bourne weakness has bieeii n~xclusively of internal slgnlil- i'aii<‘c."

Anotiicr Amsterdam despatch says:

ltr-plying to the Stuttgart Chamber of Voiiinieree protest against President \\'ilsoii‘s reply to the Pope's peace proposal Emperor William. says ti despatch received here, has expressed his thanks for the indignant rejection "ot the euemy’s dishonorable entice- nielits." ,

“Whoever attributes to the Ger-

man people dlsloynlty or lick ol' ho- nor," said the Empet-or‘s reply, "does not know the history or the soul ot our people." .
