II. p. Fillmore of thef DIN Scott
firm returned the first of the week
from Montreal where he went on
business trip. Mr. Fillmore was alb
sent from the village four days and
had the opportunity TO see Canada in
wartime at first-hand He states
that men in khaki are in evidence
everywhere and that there is con
slant marching and drilling of troops
in the streets. Canada has already
sent about 10000 men to European
battlefelds, but the recruiting is still
in evidence The streets are over
hung with banners urging enlistment
and prominent posters with huge let
tiers: Men, Protect Your Wives,
Sisters and Mothers-Enlist Now"
and Your King and Country Need
You Help the Boys in the Trenches"
and other equally patriotic insignia
flare from every shop window and
blank wall Business appears to
keep normal and is on par with that
in the United States. There are many
Germans in the city, but they are
keeping quiet. The continual pres
ence Of armed men maintains the war
spirit and very little incentive preci-
pilates an anti.German outbreak.
Soldiers attend church ON Sunday in
uniform and the day that Mr. Fill
more left for Bennington large com
pany marched from prominent
cathedral to boat awaiting to con.
voy them to Liverpool
