Salter, Curopean traffic manager of Canada's Orand Trunk rail way system, when recently visiting the American hospital at Paignton, Devon, staffed by American doctors and n ureses, and supported by the American women of London, was more than pleased at the Interest they were taking In the Canadian wounded, and, as the otTioere in charge state, the 'Cansdlans give them a touch of borne.' An Incident happened during the visit which shows how far afield the Canadian army Is drawn from. A Canadian High lander appearing before the officer In charge of this hospital, was asked: "From 'what part of Canada do you come?" "Omaha, Nebraska," was the reply. But Omaha, Nebraska, Is not In Canada!" "Don't blame me 'taint my fault,"" said the Highland soldier. "What made you JolnT" asked the doctor. "Well, my fore parents fought and gave us the peace and liberty we have In North America, and I thought the least I could do was to Join the Canadians and go over and do my little bit and put Kaiser BUI and his class out of business." Continuing, the Canadian remarked, "Have you an Omaha Bee? I'd give my kilts for a copy; I would like to see what the boys are doing at home." This was when he was offered a Toronto Globe, which waa circulated amongst the Canadians. PREFERS LIFE IN ARMY TO A MOTORMAN'S JOB Edgar E. Smith haa revised his opinion of the United States army and re-cn-llsted at the local recruiting station. Ed gar was discharged from the field ar tillery at West Point, N. Y.. In May of last year. He decided it would be much nloer to stand on the front of a street car and fly along through the pleasant breeses than lugging a gun around in the hot sun at drill fii Uncle Sam's army. But he says there are disadvantages In the motorman buslnesa. Truck drivers "get his goat," ho declares, when they won't get off the track and are ten timet as aggravating as the Mexicans, "Me oi the army," he 'said warmly.
