"We weren't the first to shoot, and we won't be the second," said DaL- bine. "But well shoot if we have to.". Jerry Donohue, in the front rank of the strikers, tingled with excitement -. and suspense. Such 'a stillness had fallen that he heard the breathing of the man next to him. Fascinated he kept hal eyes fixed on the Sherif a bulky, red-faced man who had lost -his - bat In the scrimmage and. whose *bald head chastened in the hot August sun. The officer was panting from his exer- tions;..sweat was .streaming down his face; but with theresolver in his hand •.be was not quite an object for deri- sion. Jerry watched biro with the absorption of 'a mere spectator, one _ not himself involved in the drama, and • wondered what he would do. The sheriff looked about hi}n; : his ' forces were over -matched. Reluctant - ]y he returned his revolver• to his pocket. "I don't propose to engage in a pitched battle with you men," he said. 'You defy the civil authorities; very well. In a day or;3wo you are likely to find yourselves under martial law.' CHAPTER VIII. bJ owlet arrangassent with -Thos. Allen, Toronto _ The group on duty before the gates knew that the end wets near. The whole town was aware of it—had been -:.since the night before, whenthe governor's .decision_ to call out the National Guard had been published. Immediately upon the receipt oL•that news many of the strikers had slipped away. They realized that further re- sistance was hopeless and they dread- ". ed punishment for past resistance if they 'remained. But most of the __ men, though admitting the futility of prolonging the fight, were animated by 'a resolve to make no premature - surrender. Even though they all knew overcome, they chose to compel the -fective demonstration of the fact - It was not a stimulating prospect, however, and the drizzling rain that dripped from their hat -brims and `trickled down insides nptnrrl.d emit- ' collars made it difficult for them to maintain the desirable spirited ap- pearance. They stood about discuss- ing the course that after the capitula- . tion it might be best for each one to - fol}ow. -Most-of-thdm-were disposed- - to seek again their old -positions in "Not for me," said Jerry in response to a question. "Drayton has a black mark-down opposite my name. I'm ging to get a job in the city, and .c en to going to night school; if you • don't have an education you're bound to be somebody's man all your life." "An education's no guarantee eith- -rer," replied one of the group.

Among the faces he recognized a few • some of the young men that he had drilled had fallen into line and were seeking re- instatement in their • old jobs. He looked in vain for Jerry Donohue. He noticed one man, elderly, ' haggard, emaciated, who walked with feeble steps and coughed feebly. The next afternoon when the guard was being. changed, Trask was again at the gates. A man came running out, crying that there had been an,ac- cident. Not waiting to learn the cause and thinking that a riot might be in progress, Trask took two of the guardsmen and hastened through the :Hill -yards. H'e came to a group gathered behind one of the great cor- rugated iron sheds. • Lying dead on the slag was the man who had drawn a pitying glance from Trask when he stood in line for work the day before. "He was consumptive," said one of the men in reply to Trask's question. "Toppled- over at his -furnace. Poor old Jim." (To be continued.) . IP GERMANY WINS.

INDIAN NATIVE TROOPS. Show Bravery When Ship Was Tor. pedoed in Mediterranean. The British Admiralty reports a' striking instance of the discipline and; bravery of Indian native troops aboard a sinking British transport in the Mediterranean, which had been torpedoed by a German submarine. The, natives coolly proceeded to the boats' stations and stood at attention.,' As the boats were being lowered se second torpedo struck the vessel which was rapidly sinking. The sola. diers were thereupon ordered -to heave the rafts Overboard and jump into the water after them. These orders were carried out with commendable calm: ness, and all except three reached the rafts: The survivors were picked up patrol vessels and safely landed.

Greatest Crisis in History—Enlist For Food Saving and Food Production. _ - - _• With the • call to service, .the message has gone 'forth: "To the farms!" For months past it has wavered [ .. ,,sterols the couniity, and the echo has been caught up and thrown back ` '''from time to time. But now it comes '� :with a direct challenge that is as ir- '• `resistible as the soldier's bugle call. It sounds from end to end of •the country. Men and women are •hearkening. They are thinking abut ,41P` • it; talking . about it. But there is no -time to play battledore and shuttle- cock with such an issue. There must be action—immediate, clear-cut, • whole -hearted action. - - The challenge is to men d women 1. alike. Equality of servi is demand- ed of them. Employer nd employee :`; -are asked to help; the rich and the • poor; the busy and the idle. There `!s no intention that any industry be put out of joint or business disorgan- ized. There is every intention that alt the resources of the country be judiciously used in making the most of Canada's harvest this year. The •'need is imperative. Nothing .can off. set this fact. What the women of Europe have. done to save the crops is an old tale; yet, ever new in the wonder of it. 'What the women of Canada have done in this line is negligible yet, although --rs a fluctuating pulse of an over -wrought nation. It was in those early days when the men were suddenly called to arms and the crops would have rotted had they not harvested them that the women first showed their mettle and rose to the occasion voluntarily. As Lloyd George said of them: "They know their country is in the grip of grim tragedy. In Flanders, girls harnessed themselves to heavy barges and plod along the towpath, thanking God they've released—not a man, but a horse to help in the war." Infarasia and Italy the women plow, sow and reap. Even on the beautiful Riviera the shadow of war has fallen, and the young girls in the work of transportation stagger under kegs of wine or water weighing eighty pounds. In Scotland, girls single turnips, plant potatoes, drive horses and carts in the fields, and help in every kind of farm work. In Britain to -day, there, are 6,000,000 women taking the graces of men in . various forma .of work. There are 300,000 engaged in agricul- tural work alone. The women of Canada can do these things. They have been spared the suffering and the humiliation of the women of invaded countrres. They �s •, , '' ,My f. rr,. : J " ashen Fair's A r, rraetors jS WtsioitieriS i 'ori-.

No true Canadian woman would let the grain spoil on the stalk were she actually to see it wasting before her eyes—the•grain that is now more pre- cious than gold o: rubies. • But when it beginsto rot would be too late. The time to act is now! woman is or ever wbe; w • a • e social status, her occupation or her share of this world's goods., There is a. new democracy abroad—a won- derful levelling of grades. Useful- ness and service are the things that count. . - Every woman must search her soul and ask herself how she cat best help in taking care of the harvest of 1918. She does not need to be a trained farmerette, though if. she is, it's all the better. If she is a city girl who was brought up on the farm, she should be useful right out on the land. • If she is a good housekeep�er, she can volunteer to help the fai'nlbr's wife for a time. If she knows of any male loafers, she can report them and have them sent to• "'pastures new" to pitch hay. If she can take a man's place tem- porarily in the city, then by all means let her do it and add one man to re- lieve the labor situation. If she can give up her fiolidays this year to work on the farm, she will be doing a plucky and patriotic thing. If she is a girl of leisure, it is°up to her to go out on the land or send a man from the city while she fills his shoes. In short -every :woman and every teen-agegirl can do SOMETHING' during July and August towards as- suring the country of the full benefit of -those crops which Nature so bounti- fully yields, war or no war. It is one of the biggest things ever asked of a woman. It is for the " erase of our Allies. But most• of all—for our men -"over tb re." They provide the ir- resistible argument why:every woman should turn her hand to food conserva- tion, "to food production, or to both.. 4 " UNEASY LIES THE HEAD The Army Bed is Really a Serious Subject at First Acquaintance.

A British soldier, at present a pris- oner of war in Germany, has cleverly defeated the censor by sending home to his parents a letter containing the information that the people in Ger- many are in, dire- straits with regard to food. The young soldier wrote his letter in blank verse,' a fact' which at first caused surprise to the parents,,• and it was some time before his rea- son for doing so became apparent. A sharp young cousin observed that by reading in a downward direction the initial letters to tip lines tiie sol- dier had succeeded in conveyirtg.the reassuring information that ,`"Ger- many is starving." The communication, which in, itself is interesting reading, is 'as follows: EGod bless you, my'mother, very day I am thinking of you. Recollections of home sustain me, Memories . being so sweet.
