_ MUTUAL EXAMINATTON.
LONDON, July 21.- Frcdorick Har-
rison‘s book, "The Gorman Peril," pub- lished today, contains the following passage:
“Let us not think that nny kind of
words, or any kind of agreement or compromise or meditation, can avail us in the fiercest trial of our English blood. Nor let us vainly imagine that the enemy will relax in his delirium of frigbtfulness, or spare us one pang which he can conflict on us all.
"lt is my iirm belief that w hen we
have driven him back to his own land (and we shall drive him back- wc must, uiiloss we are to be forever ruined). scenes of horror, almost of niuiual extermination, will take place, exceeding anything wc have yet known in ferocity, destruction and blood."

LETTEHS EHUM THE EHUHT
The following letters, received by
Mrs. H. Henderson, Union Road, tell their own sorrowful story. The first two bright, breezy letters are from her son. Cecil, the last from his friend. The sympathy and kindness of the brave men at the front to- wardb each other and their manly thoughlfulnoss toward those at home has more than once during the pre sent war exemplified the truth of the poets words. "The bravest are the tenderest, the loving are the daring.” Following are the letters.
June 11, 1915. My Dear Mrs. Hend-
erson: I write this letter with a heavy heart for I know it will not bring you much comfort but I thought you would like to hear from one of your son's comrades. Your dear son Cecil was killed in action the morn- ing of May 8. Of course you have been notified of his death before this but as I was near him at the end and kncw_,.him well, we .were in the same company. I thought my letter might be solne small comfort. I can at least tell you that his end was quick and so near as I can tell painless.
l ani enclosing a,lctter I found on
him, you might like as a remember- ance. I know I cannot say mucli to comfort you, but he died a glorious and heroic death, and with your sor- row you can at least have the con- solation that he made the best possi- ble use of his life, and gave, it cheer- fully that freedom for the world and our Empire might live. Thrustlng God to give your strength to bear your bereavement, I am your true friend. PTE. W. H. KNAPP, 23283,

Dear Moiher,- I received two of
your welcome letters yesterday and was glad to hear from you as I had not heard from you for a long time. I am quite well although pretty tired. l have been in the trenches for a long time, 12 days, and it gets pretty tiresome; things seems to be quite in- teresting lately, the Canadian divis- ion is doing some great work I hear, but you hear more about everything than we do out here. For days we dont even know what the other half of our own Regiment is doing. and when we get a paper it is about a week old. I hear that Italy has come in. I hope that is so and it will finish this war up soon. The Germans are using a poison gas now ami it is awful. We have not had much of it yet but wc have seen enough of it to know what it would be like. Woll I guess that is about all I have to say for this time. Be sure and send me an envelope cvory letter you wrltc because they are hard to get hero. Well I guess I must comc to a close. Good by with love. A. CECIL HENDERSON.
Fraiicc, April 25, 1915.
Dear Mother As I had not much to
do l thought I would drop you a few lilies to let you know that I am well and I hope this will find you the same. I ani lying on the ground in a nice pine wood and it is a nice sunny day. A person might almost forget that there was a war at all if it wasn't for the shells going over by the dozens. I have certainly seen a little bit of what war is, I was in that St. Eloy racket, the battle of the Mound. I guess you heard all about it but you can't imagine what it was like until you really see it. It makes one feel kind oi' queer to see men killed on both sides of one but I am getting used to that now, I was also at Ypres. That town is in awful ruins the big Cathedral and cloth hall, among the best buildings in the world. are de- stroyed. Well I guess l can't say too much or the censor will not pass the letter, so I will come to a close for this time. Remember me to all the

LONDON, July 21.- Referring dur ing the debate in the Commons to- day. to the situation in the Dominioiis

NEW YORK, July 21.-The Scandi- navian American Line steamsliipi Oscar II. arrived to-day 1'rom Copen- hagen with 514 passengers and cargo. Officers of the ship said they had passed through the Nortii Sea without being molested.
Among the passengers was Aurele
Barris, of New York, a naturalised German, who has been living in Ger- many for about two years. He said that when he left Berlin lic was await-
..*0NE CENT per word each in-
tary asking for cards to slgii.
There were many opportunities for
serving the men, and it was very evi- dent that the work of the Y. M. C. A. among the troops was very much need- ed , and was very greatly appreciated by both men and officers. The Colon- el stated that he was in hearty sym- pathy with our work and would be glad to give any assistance possible.
Those who recently contributed to
this work the Y. M. C. A. is doing at the Militia camps, may feel that they are doing something rcally worth while. They are helping conserve the Christian manhood of our young men who are enlisting, or are serving at the Front. The temptations to be met by the young soldier are many and serious, they need all the assistance' we can give them. During the last
month some of our college students have been collecting funds out in our country districts towards this work, and with considerable success, over $150 having been secured. Anyone wishing to contribute towards this w- ork may write the Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. Charlottetown, who will be glad to send along the money to the proper authorities.
BOYS' WORK IN THE SUNDAY -
SCHOOL
During the last two years, two Older
Boys’ Conferences have been held on the island, the first at Charlottetown, the second at Summerside. These conferences have brought together some 300 older boys, who have been inspired to go back to their Sunday Schools to do much better work, by
methods which have proved success-
ful olsowhcrc, As a result, wo now have a strong movement on'the ll- land which is gradually widening the scope of the Sunday School, aiding it to hold and interest the boys in a won- derful way. Of course this is a new movement, and one of the first neces- sities to make it a success is xi supply of trained leaders. To help fill this need, an Older Boys’ Training Con- ference will be held at Cardigan, un- der the auspices of the island S. S. Association, commencing Saturday afternoon August 21st., finishing August 24th. This will enable any delegates who wish, to attend the Sun- day Scliool Convention at Montague. Older Boys. 16 years and over will be accepted as delegates, and as the num- beris limited to 50, early application should he made. Address Harold C. Cross, Secretary Y. M. C. A. Charlotte- town

l.M.iI.i.WllHK WITH THE
SUTTHEHS AT SUSSEX
As a great many faniilics on the
Island have relatives who were with the 55th, Battalion in camp at Sussex, they will be interested in hearing something oi' the work donc thcrc by
the Y. M. C. A.
Mr. Harold C. Cross, Sccrctary of the Y. M. C. A. at Charlottetown, was | at Sussex for about a month getting
the work organized.
The “Y” equipment consisted of two
large marquecs, joined together, a small restaurant, and two bell tents used by tho secretary and his assis- tants. lu thc large niarqueos, which took the place of an Association build- ing, were eight long tables with hen- ches, where tiio inen might write their
letters, rcxd, or play games such ' as checkers c css 'or tlominoes. The Y. M. G. A. supplied writing papcr and on- vclopes frco Lo the soldiers, and kept a supply of pens and ink always on hand on thc tables. On account of mn- king it so convenient for tiio mon to write homo, some 1500 lcttcrs a week were wriiion in tho Y. M. C. A. tont. A fresh supply of magazines was plac- ed on tho tables every duy and the daily ncwspapcrs came in from all ovor the province, so that tho mon might get tho news from their own towns. This was u great boon to thc mon, preventing them from feeling altogeth-
or cut off from their friends.
Some great games of checkers wcrc
played, there being several cri-ink play- ers in thc camp, ami there was always an interested group around thc play-
ers.
Pmlialily the greatest pleasure for
tho soldiers 'wus our piano. I-low thc men did ciijoy gathering around it for a good hearty sing, and you were just as apt to hcnr them singing some old favourite hymn as onc of thc lntcsi rag times. We found there wcrc quiic a few good piano players in tho Batt- alion, and it looked as though it would be possible io get together at least
one quarlelic.
We had some athletic oquipiiicnt
for the use of the soldiers. A playgr- ound ball outfit provided some great fun in the evenings after supper. Therc was also n set of quoits, and a Vollny
Ball court was fixed up.
At tho restaurant the soldicrs could
buy soft drinks, ice cream, milk, butt- er~milk, lemonade, sandwiches, pies, biscuits, candy, handkercliiefs, socks
etc..
Everything possible was done to
help the men keep straight, morally. A very successful Bible Class was or- ganized, which met on Sunday after- noons, and was attended by some of the bcst fellows of the Battalion. Fam- ily worship was held in the Sucre- tar_v"s toni each evening just before "lights out." for those who were nn- xious to lu-ep up this liahit. Ono of the worst evils in n camp is profaiiity. and we used a supply of "l)on't Swear" medals to great effect. We also se-
(nn-ed n great many signatures to temperance pledge cards. After being signed the mon were asked to send these cards home to their mothers. wives, or someone whom they knew.
