DEATH OF JOHN H. SHEE.
HAN-LOCAL NOTES

A recent letter from Frank Goodrich,
the c. F. r. r. engineer, who enlist
ca with the "Highlanders'' of Toron-
to for the European war and is now
enCamped with his regiment on Sal
isbury Plains, England, speaks Of the
general opinion among the soldiers as
to Lord Kitchener's plan Of campaign.
He writes:
We haven't heard so much lately
about going to the front. We have
been moved into huts and are far
more comfortable than formerly. We
are being instructed in trench dig
ging and you ought to see the bis
ters on my hands from swinging a
pick and using a shovel: Everyone has
to do it SO / don't care. We expect it
to come in handy some day.
Il seems to be everyone's opinion
that Kitchener has the intention Of
keeping just enough men at the front
tC hold the Germans until spring and
then he can put a million new men into
the field and take the offensive in
earnest.
Germany is putting up a stiff re-
sistance but there is no doubt that she
is losing day after day and it is only
Il question OF time before the allies
