_ 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.

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

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.

Mr Borris said it was plaliily evl.

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.
