WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.-President Wllson, in his annual address to Con- gress yesterday, dealing mainly with nstional defence, proclaimed an ad- vanced Americaniisni, growing from the guardianship of the Monroe Doc- trine to “the full and honorable as- sociation.” of all the Americans. Although, in the longest address he has yet delivered to Congress, the President touched upon a variety of subjects, the predominating note was the necessity of a policy of military preparedness to meet the readjust- ments of the next generation as they will affect the American Continent. He emphasized his point by saying: “Unless you take it within your view and permit the full significance of it to command your thought, I cannot find the right light in which to set forth the particular matter that lies at the very front of my whole thought, as I address you to-day. I mean national defence." The point was not overshadowed when the President, in the most ull- measured terms he ever has employ-, ed before Congress, denounced natur- ,alized Americans who, by their sym- pathies for the European belligerents, have endangered American neutrality. While Congress cheered him loudly, he referred to them as having “pour- ed the poison of disloyalty into the very arteries of our national life." and as those who “would turn in maiign re- action against the Government alld the people who had welcomed alld nurtured them." With evidences of deep feeling the President expressed “the even deeper humiliation and scorn which every self-possessed and thoughtfully patriotic American must feel when he thinks of them and of the discredit they are daily bringing upon us." _ _ While the President’s outline of the administration plan for the army alld navy passed without a ripple of ap- plause. and his references to pau-Am- I ericanism were only punctuated wi-th' evidence of approval. Republicans and l Democrats alike, joined in an elwzla- I tic demolilitl'ation'at his words ff. ~-\il- dolninatlon for those he assallefi -- -wl- rescrvcdly. IIIE SIIIIIIIIII RISE III SI. JIIHII. II.

It was a football match bo- tween the ohlcers of our own and other regiments. It was a burlesque. All were dressed up in outlandish rigs. Pho challenged team arrived in a Tally-Ho (which consisted of a G. S. waggon drawn by draft horses). It was an odd scene. The church bells were ringing, big gun.s firing, rain pouring, and still everyone shouting and laughing at the antics of the play- ers. The serious ide of war makes no impression on any one here. The soldiers are the happiest and jolilest crew one ever law. A few nights ego we had a concert in the neighbouring town.‘ The performers belonged to a Winnipeg medical unit. It was easily the best amateur show I ever attend- ed. The only ladies present were a few nurses, so the jokes went down all right. With the exception of an occasional cold wo are all very fit and readily we grow accustomed to mud and dirty surroundings. Even the horses are ill good condition. I my- self am surprised to find how well I feel. I can ride all day and keep up my end on the route marches, but of course I do not at my age expect to .stand the wet and cold in the marches as well as the younger chaps. The weather has been a little finer lately, frost every night, but not very cold. We are in extra good biilets just now, but hardly expect to be as well off again. Our greatest lack is locks. The is- sue is not as ggod as our old-fashioned Canadian socks. The good pe‘opie of P. E.
