Anyone who heard these boys shouting and singing at night in the canteen would certainly not have judged them to be demoralized. I am grateful to our Ontario colleague for having given a true picture to our neighboring province of the atmosphere that exists in our French Canadian camps. It is the best way to blot out the bad impression the words of a few firebrands have created and the shadow cast by some untortunate incidents. Moreover, our hngiisn-speaking compatriots have long since learnt not to judge all the people by a feWi Moreover they know the French Canadian people are rallying behind the Union Jack to defend the institutions and the way of life that arc dear to them. Mr. Godbout, Prime Minister of. this province, is the trtle representative of French Canada. In the speech he miid e Friday last, on the anniversary of the first year since the; law on woman suffrage was put into effect, he said : We r rench Canadians are just as British as any other Canadians in this country . . . More perhaps than our Ang lo-Canadian compatriots, we have reason to be British to the very marrow of our bones. We. have benefitted from England's protection for a long time, from whom we received our freedom ; more than the English we need that protection under the Crown. When there is a war on like now, it is Canada's duty to recognize the supreme effort that England is exerting, and it is up to us to help her carry out her job." . That is the best way to proclaim the solidarity of the British world in time 6f danger. Canada is' our country, our only country, and no one would sacrifice Canadian interest to a foreign pqwer;but the people, with their unerring instinct; dheir proverbial good sense, realized at once that this war was Canada's war. We went into it because we felt that the German threat hung just as much bVer our heads as over those of the British Isles.

CEREMONY AT SMITHERS SMITHER6, July 7: Major Low of the Canadian Corps Signals, from Prince Rupert, arrived In Smlthers on Friday morning bearing the proclamation Issued by the Department of National Defence calling to arms the able-bodied men of .. military age throughout Canada. . He was escorted 'by a party of four Including a bugler and drum mer from . the Itocky Mountain Rangers. The party marched down the street from the government offices with bayonets fixed 'and drew up In front of the village hall where they were met hy ;the commis sioners of the village and where a large crowd had gathered to hear the reading of the proclamation. The streets of the town were extensively decorated .with flags and bunting for the occasion. The proclamation was handed by Major Low to L. H. Kenney,, chairman of the village commissioners, who read the Call to Anns so that all present could hear. ( The Orand Salute was blown by the bugler and the party then marched back to the government offices. The ceremony had a profound effect upon all those present, as It was tne lirsl time in me nisioryi or Canada that such a ceremony had been carried out throughout, the Dominion. The veterans of Smlthers en tertained the party at a smoker during the evening when quite a number gathered to meet Major Low und his party, and a grand-evening was enjoyed by all those present. Had more time being given for the arrangement of more elaborate preparations for the heading of this proclamation there Is no doubt that a great deal many more people would have been one hand for the ceremony. Major Low and his party re turned to Prince Rupert on Saturday morning's train. Ammunition And Food Is Needed ...LONDON, July 7: (CP) Right Hon.
