PATRIOTIC MEETING   I
HELD
LAST NIGHT
>""fr - -_ _._ _--_-__--_
interesting .Statistics by Chairman
Sir Wilfrid Sullivan and inspiring
Address by Rev.   Dr. Campbell.
Tile meeting held ill Prince of Wales
College Hall lust evening under the
auspices of the Prince Edward island
Branch of the Canadian Patriotic
Fund. at which the Rev. Dr G. M.
Campbell. Principal or Mt. Allison
UUIVGFBIW. delivered a splendid ad-
dress on “The Call of the Empire,"
was largely attended. the hall being
packed to the doors. His Lordship
the Chief Justice, Sir W. W. Sullivan.
President of the Fund, occupied the
chair, and also on the platform, be-
sides the speaker of the occasion,
were His Lordship Mr Justice Fitz-
gerald and Lieut. Stewart. of the 105th
Regiment. Before Dr Campbell ad-
dressed the audience Professor Bar-
low and Miss McDonald sang solos
which were much appreciated.
A detachment from the 105th Regi-
ment was in attendance. On the seats
were subscription cards which the
audience were asked to sign if they
desired to contribute anything to the
fund. and these cards were after-
wards collected. Before the close of
the meeting Mr G. D. Wright. in be-
half of the Loyal Orange Lodge of
P. E. island, presented to the Presi-
dent a cheque for $500 as part of a
donation to the Patriotic Fund, the
other part of which the public would
hear of later. The money, he said.
was at first intended for the Machine
Gun Fund, but as it was no lollger
needed ill that direction the Lodge
had decided to hand it over to the
Patriotic Society. 'He hoped that this
action would be an incentive to other
bodies to do nobler and hotter deeds
towards the preservation of the Old
Flag. _Sir Wilfred Sullivan, on behalf
of the Patriotic Fund, ‘thanked the
l.sorL£%,thrcugh.Mr,Wrig t.- and ‘con-
cur »-ll-'~tle»'hope that this praise
worthyvexample might be followed by
other societies.
The President, in opening the meet-
ing, said he had great pleasure in be-
ing ablo to announce--that thoaudi-
ence would be addressed by one of tho
famous orators of Canada. Dr Camp
bell was well known to many ill Char-
lvtlvtwvu. luwlug ot one limo neon
the pastor of lt large and highly rc-
spcctablo collgregatioll in this city.
Proceeding, he said il. was hurllly
necessary for him to fell them what
tllo Patriotic Fund fnleallt. It was a
fund established by act of Parliament
of Canada since the present war had
begun. the Patron of it being His
Majesty tho King. the President for
Canada, liis Royal Highness the Gov-
crnor-Cienornl. and in every province
of Canada there was a branch. The
Prince Edward island Branch, he said.
had been labouring since its formation
to raise funds for the worthy object
of providing comforts and necessarles
for the wives, dependents and rela-
tives of those brave men wllo had
gone to fight lilo battles of tllo Empire,
and those who migllt lleroaftel' go.
Tile least tlloso could do. who could
not go to the front. was to show that
they appreciated the galI;\.nt efforts of
the mon who were lighting ill defence
of their country.
As near as be could get the figures
frolll the autllorltles. Prince Edward
Island had sellt across the seas about
800 men. who are now either at tho
frollt or in England training for the
front. Besides these 800. there are
uowrecrultetl for the 105th Regiment
between 800 and 900, while lu Halifax.
Sydney and other places in the Mari
time Provinces there is a large num-
ber more; so that, representing Prince
Edward island in the war, there are
altogether approximately 2,000 men.
Tllls. said I-lis Lordship, was very
creditable to the province, a purely
agricultural community ln_whlch there
was no surplus stock. Up to the first
of the year. when the Governor-
General made his appeal, 25,000 fam-
ilies were being provided for alld
80,000 individuals receiving support
from the Fund--that is. for the whole
of Canada. -ln Prince Edward Island
there are 223 families receiving sup-
Dort .from tha, fund. or about 1.000
irdlvlduais. "Up to the present time
nearly $10,‘5® has _been expended.
For-the’pren5nt month. the amount
whiplrwlll be~paid.o\lt is 81,500. _ The
audience could understand that as

Tile married nlell are fathers of
families ranging from one to seven
children, and the records allow that
as recruiting progresses the propor-
tion of married men in the ranks in-
creases. Lleut. Stewart then made an
appeal for support to the fund, and
at the same time _invited the young
men in the audience to come forward
and join the 105th, over 200 men being
still required to complete its establish-
ment.
The chairman thell introduced Dr
Campbell, who was accorded an on-
thusiastle reception. Dr Campbell's
eration was magnificent and was list-
ened to with the closest attention. He
made a double appeal. for support for
the Fund and for recruits.
I-le said that in the addresses which
he had been permitted to make since
the beginning oi’ the war, he had
attempted to emphasize two distinc-
tive notes; ill tlle hrst place the note
'of warning, and, in the secolld place.
the note of confidence in the ultimate
triumph of British arms. The great
duty that calls to us as citizens of the
Empire is to make, as promptly as we
can possibly make it. one supreme
and all-important offering, the willing
and sacrificial placing upon the altar
of the country the best that the coun-
try has, that the Empire shall perish
not. He did not assume to come
hero, he said, into our beautiful city
and province ill order to dictate to
his friends the form in wlllcll their
duty to their country sllollld express
itself. Some oi’ tllose to whom hc
spoke were unable to go to the hunt.
just as he was satisfied tllere were
some in the audience Whose duty was
to find their way to the firing lille.
Wlletller any man sllould go to the
front or not was not a question which
he would attempt to define or dctler-
mine. but he wanted to say, " Go, and
to those of us who relnalu at homo,
that for the saving of the British
