Last Sunday morning Recruiting Officer
Private Doliber addressed the Mems For
um at the North Congregational Church
on the subject of Compulsory Military
Service, pointing out the advantages
which the American Army offers to
young men in the opportunities of seeing
foreign lands and peoples, free education,
| free training in skilled tr de, life in the
open air, development of fine physique
and the building of character. He main
tanned that it is the duty of every young
man to take course of military training,
so that when called upon, he will be train
ed and ready TO take up arms in the
defence of his country. The discussion
which followed centered mainly on the
question as to which was the better, vol
untary service or the draft; some arguing
in favor of the voluntary system and
maintaining that the troops produced
under conscription, as represented by
Germany's huge military machine, were
not equal to the troops produced by the
free people of the world, inspired as they
were by patriotism and love of liberty.
The value of the trained man was recog;
nized, however, and the general opinion
expressed was that compulsory military
training would prove beneficial to oul
boys and safeguard to our nation. DR.
W. L. West presided with his customary
tact and consideration. Next Sunday
morning the subject will be: "Ought the
Ex-Kaiser to be Punished2" Now, mer
of Belfast, come and tell us what yor
think about the War Lords of Germany
