Organized Last Night. Provi- sion Made for Enlisiment of 500 Men
The Special 'Committee appointed
Wednesday evening at the Citizens’ Meeting met last night at the Arm- ouries, the following being present:`- Col. F. S. Moore, Major Weeks, Mr D. Fraser, Mr E, D. ::terus, Col. D, Stewart, Captain W. B. Prowse, Mr Geo. M. Moore, Dr H. D. Johnson, Aeneas McDonald, W. S. Louson.
Qui. Moore read the heading of the
Service Roll, which ls as f’ollows:-
Home Guard, P.E. Island. We whose
names are herewith subscribed, being loyal British subjects, voluntarily agree to serve in the Home Guard of Prince Edward Island during the con- tinuance of the war in which the liinpire is now engaged, and that we will attend all drills and parades ordered by the ofilcers of the corps, if in our power to do so. (Then follow thefnames, residence, age, date of enlistment.)
This forin was unanimously adopted
as being the simplest and most feasi- ble. Copies of the Service Roll will be given to each member of the Com- mittee. and a CODY handed to the otilces of the Guardian, Patriot and Examiner for the signature ot citizens between the ages oi’ 18 and 70. Out- lying places in the Province may have copies of the Service Roll by applying to the Secretary, Mr W. S. Louson.
It was moved by Mr Stems, seconded
by Major Weeks, that the companies organised have the power to stent their own ofilcers, and that instructors lic provided as required by them, These motions were carried by the t_‘oiumittee_ _
it was suggested by Captain W. B.
l’i_‘owse that a button be prepared, with the words “Home Guard, P.E. island ” printed thereon to identify the organisation. Five hundred of these buttons are being ordered.
A number of other matters were
discussed in connection with the lor- mation of the Home Guard. and it was decided to call a meeting of the Coni- mittee next Wednesday evening to further the movement. The first turn- out at the Drill Hall will take place next Thursday night at 8 sharp, when nil those who have signed or may sign in the meantime are requested to be present. .
From th¢~~_€8,it9l'_al_ comment heard
ou the stféei; he movemenvis it very popular ne'~and' -promised a large enlistment. ~-
It is the desire of all those interested
not to have any enlist \vho can pos- filllly go into overseas service, ami it is fully expected that. as has been the case in other cities. the formation of the lioiue Guard here will help rc- rruiting for the second contingent.
As the Committee appointed are
busy inch, it is hoped that citizens who desire to eiilist will offer their, iiaines` and service without waiting for an invitation. Each member of the Coin- mittee will have a. Service Roll in his possession by noon to-day.

An overwhelming audience greeted
Mr. Irving Beers and his associates at the Peoples Theatre last night iii the -splendid English comedy-_drama “Thu Tyraiiiiy oi' Tears," which was pre- sented under the auspices of the Pat- riotic Fund.
The hall was absolutely crowded.
and b_v their enthusiastic and generous applause the audience showed a per- fect apprcrtation of the efforts of the actors, who deserve the utmost cre- dit for the cxccllent production for which they were responsible. The play, which consisted of four acts, contained a strong moral, and demon- strntcd the futility' of married life without fi proper sympathy between husband and wife. Mr. Parbury, an opulent novelist, takes a kindly but perfectly legitimate interest in his pretty feniaie secretary. Miss Hya- ciuthe Woodward, with the result that his wife, u liigiily-strung and inconsi- deratc young lady, develops zi disas- trous ji~sl0us_\'. Complications natur- ally vusuc-_ and the proposal of Mrs. l’arbury that thc secretary should be <iiscliui'goti because-although she dons not communicate the reason to her husband-Miss Woodward kissed his photograph, is gently but firmly rojci-lcd by thc inan. who sees no _lus- tificuiiou for the action. Failing by persuasion to get her husband to dis- ciiurgc the girl, Mrs. Parbury plays to her trump card;---slie weeps, causing i\_lr.
