HEAvY.HEARTED
AS IT SEES SOLDIERS OFF

VANCOUVER, n. C., Aug. &C.
Stirring scenes attended the de-
parture from here of more than a
thousand Vancouver soldiers for the
front.
Vancouver turned out en- masse
TO cheer them on their way. TO weep
over them and bid them Godspeed.
Crowds of people were everywhere.
They swarmed over buildings. over
street cars and wherever they could
get foothold.
Many of those in the ranks looked
as II they would much rather have
stayed home: others seemed care
free and happy.
One Highlander dropped a flask
OF whiskey accidentally while they
were lined up for roll call. II Gre
ated quite a laugh.
Two women In the crowd swoon-
ed. and caused their soldier sons
deep concern.
One soldier embraced his baby
and kissed II. and then. with sigh.

INJURED.
Little domestic tragedies were
being enacted everywhere. And at
the end OF two hours. when the
troops finally marched away. a spirit
of melancholy had settled over
those who had come to see them off.
Nobody cheered. They were begin.
ming to realize for the first time the
grim awfulness of war.
Vancouver is heavy-hearted today.
Reports of German successes
have had a demoralizing effect on
the city. Britishers here are not
nearly as confident of success as they
were.
The presence OF 500 Austrians IN
Prince Rupert so alarmed the citi.
zens they sent for soldiers. and $50
Irish fusilliers were dispatched
from Vancouver. under command OF
Capt. McSpadden. When he arrived
he sent for ESQ achievements
Consequently many Irish families
are anxious today
A sugar panic is threatening here,
because OF report that the b. c.
sugar refinery here has only enough
raw material to keep running two
weeks, and small hope OF replenish-
ing the stock.
