The jspeeches were short and appro- priate, full of high purpose and jtone. The program of songs and recitations was an excellent one, jand the singing of the male voice lquartette and the selections by the Westholme orchestra were jparticularly enjoyable features of Ithe evening Piper Alex.

A. and called upon jthe support of all returned men. Canon Rix. Canon Rix in his speech, customary eloquence, called upon the government to do full justice to the claims of the widows, phans and disabled men, pointing out the inadequacy of $40 per month to the former and desiring with $100 per month as a minimum. | Speaking in regard to the $2,000 lgrant proposed, the Canon said it was far less than the pecuniary total of $4,800 in four years. iSome of the boys went to fight ibecause they had red blood in their veins, but the majority went with the specific purpose of mak- ing the world a better place to live in. The speaker pointed out the power of the returned sol- idiers and called upon them to maintain the same spirit of com- radesWip and high ideals in their civilian capacity. He claimed the jattitude of the veterans had in great measure saved Canada from anarchy. For Canadian Club. Judge Young, as president of the Canadian Club, outlined the objects of the club and claimed ithat the interests and aims were identical with those of the G. W. V. A. and that united were a strong ifactor in the making of Canada. He paid tribute to the’ civilians, lespecially to the work of the wo- men.

Home Cooking Running Hot and Cold Water FARM LOANS for SOLDIERS a How Everyone Can Help T%. Government has developed a liberal and broad plan to help soldiers settle on farms. It is securing land. It is granting substantial loans. It is obtaining advantageous prices on equipment, implements, building meenidia and live stock. It is providing agricultural training and farming supervision. . Sa Se oe ; That is as much as the Government iteelf can do. But the plan needs more. It needs a_com- munity spirit of co-operation. Already Provincial Governments, Universities, Farmers’ Associations, and Veterans’ Associations are giving valuable assistance. Many manufacturers and sellers of farm supplies have agreed to allow the soldjer settlers special prices. Many successiul farmers have willingly worked on Qualification Committees which have to pass on the applicants. Men who have had experience in lending money on farm property are serving on Advisory Loan Committees, judging land values. But even such practical assistance is uct enough. In each community farme rs can be of real service to the soldier settler. They can give him advice about local conditions. They can Jend him an extra horse or plough, give him a day's help at seeding or harvest time, and extend to him that friendly, neighborly, respectful spirit which he deserves “It ts at once a privilege Gnd an lo ren- der service to those men who have rendered service so us greater than can ever be repaid.” —Grain Growers’ Guise. In this way Canada is performing a double duty. It is discharging, as far as possible, the debt we owe to our soldiers; and it is adding to the country’s chief industry a body of competent, willing producers. Full information about lands and loans for soldiers will be sent on request to the Provincial Superintend- ent, Soldier Settlement Board, Rogers Buliding, Vancouver, B.C oe Soldier Se “The distribution of soldier setilers in settled rural commum@tics will be of material assistance to the bess experienced settlers im that they can get advice and assistance from their neighbors.’ Farm and Dairy, Toronto > (W.
