Strong Arguments Presented for Meat and Milk p , _ A

Inspection by Different Speakers. Election of _ te H "rs Em "ge °f Sm ar who. Had Been at

Officers. Excellent Address by Dr. Garrison

my

The annual meeting of the Auti-

Tuborculosis Society was held last evening in St Paul's Hall, the Presi. dent, Mr Joseph McCarey, in the chair. The meeting was called to order at 8 o’clock. After the reading of the minutes of the last meeting, a letter was read from the Dominion Veterin- ary Department in reply to a tele- gram from the President enquiring as to the number of carcasses condemned inthe province, etc. Dr McMillan, the Vice~Presideut, llun gave his report. He said he was one of a delegation that waited upon the City Council some weeks ago in regard to meat and milk inspection. lie was of opinion that both the pub- lic and the butchers were in favour of inspection-at least the butchers said they were-and the only question that remained to be solved was, how to carry the scheme through, There was no doubt that diseased meat was

sold in the province and particularly in the city. Charlottetown was bc- hiud Summerside in the matter of me_at inspection, and although the argument had been advanced that only one carcass had been condemned in Summerslde, which is was claimed went to show that there was not much disease there, they should bear ill lllilld that no person having an animal of doubtful health would risk the scrutiny of inspection, but would easily get out of the difficulty by send- ing that animal to Charlottetown. (Cheers) There was also a great deal of immature veal being put on the market. He then read a. report showing that of 2176 carcasses in- spected by the Dominion inspector. 4 had been condemned, of which 3 were affected with tuberculosis; por- tions of carcasses condemned, 88, of which 41 were tubercular; swine, 17,875 slaughtered, 11 condemned, of

SUBMANINE SUNK

(Special to The Guardian)

LONDON, Marci) 25.-The British

Admiralty announced the probable sinking with all hands of the German submarine U-29. which recently sank four British and one French' steamer in the English Channel and damaged

official statement is as follows:

“The Admiralty have good reasons

to believe thc German submarine Il-29 has been sunk with all hands." 'i‘he German submarine U-20 had it dis- placcmeul ot' 800 tous, and wus one of thc largest. and fastest Gorman sub- uturiilcs. Two wccks ago thc il-29 matic u record rnld off thc Scilly ls- lnnds in thc Channel, being success- ful in sinking i'our British stcumcrs und one Frcncli stcnmcr, damaging throo other vessels.

’i‘hc Admiralty guvc no dctnila us

to how or wherc the U-29 wus sunk, but llio report thu.t sho was dlsposcti of wus reccivcd in shipping circles with it sigh of rclicf.

li. was this vcsscl which. just a

fortnight ago, torpedoctl six stcamcrs ut Bristol Channel, oil' Scilly Islands within two days. Her commander who spoke English perfectly, told one of thc tuerchnnt captains of the dos- froycd vessels. \vho was tulten aboard tho submarine, that he was comman- der of the submarine which torpcdoed ‘thc lirltlsh cruisers Abouklr, Cressy and lloguc. if this wus iruc bc was thc mau who wus looked upon as Gor- mnuy's most during submorinc novi- gator.

This makes the sixth Gorman sub-

marine sunk so far its the British Ad- miralty knows, ilvc of them at lcust by British worships, since thc out- break of the war and in only one case has the British report been denied by Germans. Besides these n French warship recently sank a submarine off’ the French coast, three British mer- chant shlps have put in claims for re- wards offered to merchantmen for ramming German underwater craft. One of these claims. that ol' the Cap- tain of the steamer Thordis. has been allowed by the Admiralty and the rc- ward paid.

Committee has been reviewing a lot of’ evidence from regimental boards. The first direct evidence to come be- fore the Committee front a soldier who had been through all conditions of weather at Valcartier and Salisbury Plain was Private Ross of the 3rd Battalion, who appeared before the Committee to-day in response to a subpoena. inasmuch as Private Ross had been through the mill from begin- ning to end, his evidence was naturally regarded as of particular value, as compared with a mass of hearsay avi- dence which has been thus far re- ceived by the Committee.

The Committee, in order to get at

the real condition of affairs, were care- ful in reviewing the reports of the regimental boards to call the cases where the most exaggerated allega- tions regarding the boots had been mode.

Private Ross said that, bad as

The Premier said the resolution was the sumo as that of last year. He referred io the agreement between the parties on the new plan plan of Senate representation.

Some members of the Committee read fo him the evidence of regimental boards at Salisbury Plains, and Pri- vate Ross was asked what he thought of their finding, to which he replied: “I dou’i: know where they got nil that stuff.from. I heard no complaints." Continuittg. he said that his boots and those of his comrades were line, and give every satisfaction. Just before Christmas, after his own boots had been ln service for three mouths, he required to send them to a cobhier, and secured for his own use a pair of the English army issue of boots, which he were for two weeks. until then discarded in favour of his re- paired Canadian boots. The English boots which he had worn were pro-

Private Ross stated that naturally

the question of bouts was discussed freely by all his comrades, and he said tltat unqualifiedly the boots were high- ly satisfactory, and his opinion that they were useful for the purposes of the troops was shared by his com- rades. They all, Ross said. could do the best marching with Canadian boots.

Mr Bennet an agent for the Gramm

motor trucks, who visited Salisbury Plains two or three weeks between November lst and December 10th, was examined with regard to weather con- ditions. lIe stated that weather cott- ditions could not be worse, that mud everywhere reached to the top of the meu’s boots. in some places there was a batter of tcu to twelve inches ol' clear mud. and that it was a common occurrence for the water lying in the roads to reach up to the carburetter ou tho motor trucks, which would moon at depth of from fifteen to twenty inches of' water.

There wus xt full house ut, thc Unp-

list School Room lust night to incur ltcv. I.. E, Acklnud preach on “A Prompt Decision." The sermon wus clear and forcciui and carried dccp conviction. The interest in thc meet- ings is deepening. Mr. Ackiund said in part:-

lt was nothing short oi' u public

scandal that Jesus went homo to dine with Zacchcus, the chief publican of Jericho. Zaccheus was a social no- body, au outcast, with whom nonc of the elite will coudesccnd to associate. But Jesus never did quite conform to accepted standards. Continually He .shocked and surprised people by breaking through some conventional that separated Him from a needy soul. The Master never worried I-iimself over tlte question so important to lit- tle miuds: What will the people think or say? And there was something ot' the same spirit in Zaccheus, else they had never mei.

l. How did it. happen that Zaccheus

was so honored. and what did his meeting with Jesus mean to him?

Zaccltcus was filled with curiosity

to see Jesus. (‘uriosity is the advance scout of knowledge. The child asks questions; his mind is awakening to the wonders of the world about him. Curiosity brought this man to Jesus. Only a clod could be indifferent to such a Being whose coming 19 centur- ies ago chauged the course oi' history and whose influence widens and deep- eus through all restless changes of our world. Again Zaccheus found Christ because he followed his impuls- es. He climbed into a tree that he might sec Jesus. in simple boyish ua- turalness ho risked a laugh. Some people would rather go to hell than take the risk of being laughed at. A sneer can send a soul to perdition, and the fear of man bringeth a suore.

What did interview with Jesus mean

to Zaccheus? No miracle was wrought, no woe pronounced, no sermon preach- ,ed. The Master of life eat down like a friend at Zacclieue' table, and stir- red into new life and power all the ,better nature of the man. He saw himself as he was, his sinful heart, his selfish life, but he saw also the vision of himself as be might be, and all the manhood within him lee u
