Ottawa. - The Royal North"eSI Mounted Police is to have its JuFlS- djctiou extended from Tort Arthur tc Victoria It Is understood that this important decision has been reached and that the necessary or der iu-council will be passed III, mgJiateIy. Commissioner Perry or the police force has been in Ot tawa for the last week consulting with the government and this de- cision has been reached.
 THe mounted police will have charge of the enforcement of fed eral laws from the head of the Iakes to British Columbia. For some time it has been increasingly appar- cut that federal force was neces- sqry to enforce Dominion laws. It has therefore been decided instead of disbanding the force as was at ore time proposed to extend It's au- tIority through the whole of West ern Canada. In Eastern canada the Dominion police will be in creased ill strength although there mas been d proposal to extend the famous red-coated force to the whole of Canada. This may be de- cidCd later.
 The force, which now consists of only some 800 men, will be in creased to 2,OOO or 2,50O men.
 There are two squadrons of the mounted police in France, consist ing of TAO men. They will be add ed to the home force. There are al so 1SO men in Siberia. These, with ex-mounted policemen, who aIe anxious to return, will likely oripg the force up to strength.
 The headquarters Of the whole force will continue in Regina. There will also be posts at Port Arthur, Winnipeg, Nelson, Vancouver and other points. Commissioner Perry will remain in charge. Since the w3r there have been few police doing DounGgry patrol work in Manitoba and among the British Columbia mines, but now they will continue the work they have form erly carried on in saskatchewan and Alberta only.

Dear Sister:
VIII write to you this afternoon al
am at leisure. Well. peace is here
What a blessing and cheer it means {
all. We are having it easy now We
are living in barracks and have the
Y. NJ. c. A. to go to and spend the
evenings, where we have music and
books to read. We get all we want
TO eat. For dinner we had beef stew
prunes, jam, bread and coffee. We
often get doughnuts. / am in the very
best OF health. I have all new clothes
except shoes and could get them but
am afraid new ones would hurt my
feet. We drill every day to keep in
practice. I think we are going on a
hike or something like it so we can
have a chance to really see something,
which we much desire, as we have
never had any time off since we came
over here. I have not heard from you
for over a week and am anxious to
hear. l hope my baby is well as l do
feel afraid she might get the influenza,
as | am told that some are dying of it
around that way. l was in the last
drive made by the Americans that
caused the great retreat of the Ger
man army. Our Division has been
cited in the papers for the brilliant
work done in the last drive. l have
had some very narrow escapes from
shells and machine gun bullets and
do thank God that have been spared.
l suppose there was great rejoicing
in the States when they heard the
good news. The French simply went
wild with joy when we marched
through the city. All our hardships
are over now and don't mind staying
Tor a while.
Take good care of my baby and your
self and will soon come sailing home
again, confident that l have done my
'ull bit in this war.
Your brother,
Arthur II. Smith.

My dear Sis:
Just received nine letters, and
among them was one from you, which
surely did enjoy, Just as always
do all of your letters, as they always
have plenty of pep" in them.
So you had ito have the "fiu" after
all, did you?
soon be landing in the U. S. A. ports
and telling you all kinds of stories
abouth their foreign service.
1 am anxious to get back, too, but
we will have to be patient and wait
for someone to say the word. I have
been at the same place for two months
and now feel like 1 would like to
move away from the old front. It
seems real strange not to hear any
more big guns. We are like the sea
captain who couldn't sleep until some
one threw water against the house;
we can't sleep unless someone is fir
ing all the time-"nix".
There are three sergeants on our
detail now and one of them is Ser
geant Evans from Milford. Do you
know him?
Tell Earl will give "em L" for him.
but it will be hard thing to do now,
as all we can do is to look black at a
German prisoner, and we don't see
many Of them now.
Ask mother If she received my Lib
erty bonds yet and let me know In
your next letter.
Remember me to Stuart and all the
rest.
Your Bud,
Byron.

My dear Father and Mother:
Just few lines to let you know
am still here, well and never felt bet
ter in my life. Hope you are both
enjoying good health
Well, old Kaiser Bill and his bunch
of Huns didn't last very long on the
losers end and there sure is some
great rejoicing here. Gee, / sure
would liked to have seen old Broad
way when the news got over the pond.
OF course they aren't half as happy as
the boys at the front. but they were
much wilder, l suppose.
We are still at the front but you
could hardly imagine the old place
now. 1t is impossible for US to realize
what a difference a few short hours
can make. The fields and woods that
seemed to be He'll are now as quiet as
the grave in comparison to what they
were. In fact, it is so quiet one can
hardly sleep. l don't know how much
longer we will be here, but are eX
pecting orders to move back at any
time. Everyone is talking of home and
would like to get there. OF course, we
all want to get there at once or soon
er, but that's impossible. There are
lots of US who haven't seen Paris and
the beautiful spots of France, but all
are willing to sacrifice sightseeing for
good old transport bound for the L.
S. A.
Yes, all of our mail from home is
full of the influenza clippings and it
sure must have a very strong hold. So
far as 1 know, the cases are very few
with the boys at the front OF course
we've faced all the implements and in
ventions the Huns could make to re-
5emble He'll, but at that 1 guess we will
be fortunate if the influenza doesn't |
get US. 1t sure seems that everyone |
has their troubles in war times.
Sure glad to hear you had a fine |
rip south and wish I could have been |
with you. Yes, l received Grand
'ather's history and also one paper.
Well, l must close for this time
Hoping this finds you both enjoying
good health and sending all my love,
remain,
Your loving son,

Beside me lay Little Poilu."
Who through his shirt for you did go.
He got one of your family there
But left the Hindenburg gray back
pair,
Who crawled about us late that night
And got right under my collar tight.
SO up we sat till almost morn.
Chatting, scratching, "Oh. doggone!" /
Another G. l. can or H. E.,
Then gas-well, we just couldn't see.
Now every night before we sleep.
Our daily prayer we try to keep,
For they'll be with US all the time
Till we send them floating across the

So now l lay me down to sleep.
Down my back the cooties creep;
If one should bite before l wax

MORALES STEPS FORWARD.

The city fathers of Nogales are working on a plan to change from the town to the city, a change which has been long needed in the border metropolis. There is not city in the South west that has witnessed more steady, prosperous growth than has Nogales. Strategically situated as it is, Nogales should, and without doubt will, be the largest port of entry on the Mexican border. WiGh the com pletion of the s. P. de M. R. R. to a connection with Mexico City. thus eliminating the roundabout journey now necessary to reach the Mexican capital, exports will increase many fold and Mo- gales will profit thereby.
 One of the great advantages of a change in government will be the ability of the new govern ment to proceed with the many improvements that modern cities are now making. Nogales has need of paving in particular, and other improvements, all of which will be facilitated by new clothes which the city fathers are preparing for her.--Tucson Star.
