"I have already written letters of gratitude and sympathy to tlie mothers of more than 100 American 'hoys' who have fallen fighting in Flanders alongside Canadian comrades," said General Sam Hughes, Canadian Minister of Defence, to a gathering of Americans in London. Continuing, General Hughos said: "No fewer than 2000 American citizens have enlisted in the Canadian contingent. Wo could have many more if we wished. Any mur.ber of 'West Pointers' (graduates of the American Sandhurst). lave offered their services as trained officers, and some of them are with us. The story of a Kentucky hoy who insisted on fighting is characteristic of tlie spirit which fires these adventurous young friends of ours from across the border.. He was a mero lad, though of the Lardy mountaineer type in which his liativo 'Blue Cress' State abounds. His mother wrote to mo and said the boy had run away from home. Slio would be obliged, she said, if I would send him back, and sh6 enclosed money for the purpose. I had the youth brought to mo. I told him we appreciated his motives, but that his place was obviously at home. 'Not 011 your life,' he replied. 'This is our war just as much as it's yours. Down our way we know what's coming to us if you English get linked, and T intend for one to "get into the game right now.' That young man," added General Hughes, "is still in Canadian uniform, and ho is, as they would say in Kentucky, 'dead sure' to give a good account of himself whenever he gets tlie chance." Don't go home to-night without "NAZOL"—that wonderful remedy for coughs and colds. Thousands praise it— so will you; Is. 6d. buys GO doses.—Advt.
