PLUCKY CANADIAN
YOU NG s T e r
One of the Holmes Twins, With "Win-
nipeg Riddles" an Unusually
Plucky Lad.

Perhaps you, Mr.. Man, have bought
many Liberty Bonds, and you fondly
imagine that you have done your bit
for your country.
Your Liberty Bonds are netting you
nice interest--and they are redeem
able and negotiable.
If, instead Of contributing a part
of your bankroll to- your country, you
were compelled to give an eye-what
would you say? How would you feel ?
There is little ten-year-old boy
coming here soon who gave an eye in
the cause of patriotism. His name
is Freddie Holmes-one Of the famous
Holmes Twins with the Winnipeg Kid
dies, who will perform here on March
and at the Hippodrome.
For three years these twins and
others Of the Winnipeg Riddles, have
been performing for patriotism, and
undergoing hardships that would
make many adults vince.
But their first complaint has yet to
come.
Often they were quizZed and taunt-
ed at school by jealous DULLES, but,
like little gentlemen, the twins took
llo llOGiSS. AlGilouSI CliS 40 lV
versed in matter Of size, the boys ig-
nored the DULLES just as St. Bernard
would trot ignoringly past a yelping
yellow cur.
But one day, from the seclusive
shelter of an alcove, stone from a
catapult in the hands of bully rip
ped open an eye--and today Freddies
Holmes carries slight squint and a
glass optic.
1t was then that the manhood of the
boy showed itself in every detail. The
doctor was hurriedly dressing the
wound prior to taking the lad to a
hospital. The boys mother was sob.
bling bitterly. ''Don't cry, mother"
said the lad, cit don't hurt Bit
honest it don't"
The doctor paused for a second,
glanced into the agony-twisted face
of the lad, and muttered these two
words: envy God"
And after it was all over and with
only one eye, he smiled and said: ooh
we'll, I've had the experience OF the
family"
When you go to see the Winnipeg
Riddles, see if you can tell which one
of the Holmes Twins has false eye.
