Our help failed both in promptness and strength, yet little Belgium, fighting almost alone, delayed the enemy long enough to save the day fot the Allies. For this the Belgian nation what left of it has suffered tembly ever since and for theg gallant saenfire the Empire is in honor bound to help them to the limit. The greatest need is food, and Canada, the prosperous granary of the Empire is in the best position to provide for them through the Belgian Relief fund Administered with wonderful economy and efficiency by tlie neutral Belgian Relief Committee, this hind has paid for the food which has kept the Belgians for over a year now. Most of them are still able to pay for their daily rations, but hundreds of thousands must be fed free or starve For this, moolhly contributions of nearly $3,000,000 are needed With a little self-denial, you could provide the food for one or perhaps several Belgian mothers and children through this winter which, without your help, may prove their last Will you do your share) Sd tow aubtciiptiosa wwkly woolbly ia ooo huop aiokiag cbeqoes poysblo to Local Of Pfonocwl Coouoi Utes. or to lb mommoi Central Executive Committee, 59 St Peter St Montreal $2.50 Feeds A Belgian Family A Month.

William Murdoch, a farm laborer, of this city, enlisted in the 96th Battalion, Canadian Highlanders, yesterday afternoon. He comes originally from Edinburgh, Scotland. ON HIS LAST VISIT ANOTHER RECRUIT FOR 22JRD John Henry Anderson, a farmer of I the Asquith district, enlisted today In the 223rd Scandinavian Battalion. ONLY 1400 UNATTACHED OFFI-CERS IN CANADA Despite rumors to the contrary, thero are only 1400 unattached officers In tne whole of Canada, and many of these are training the Reserve Militia pending their appointment to a bat- Horrible I the epithet ascribed to the condition of the roads leading Imo the city by farmers who are obliged to make trips to town since the heavy rains of tile past few days. All (lie roads are badly mired and conditions today constitute a serious hin-diance to transit.

One farmer, who arrived the city this morning after covering a distance of twenty-live miles, experienced a chapter of misfortunes during the tiip. the result of the heavy going The rtg was not a heavy one and the load consisted of a dressed hog and about a dor.cn hags of potatoes Twice on tne trip the democrat hroke down, and on one iff those occasions the pole was snapped in twain. When the unlucky farmer at last reached the city he thought his troubles were over, but his horses had scarcely set font on the pavement than one of the wheels eollapsed, necessitating a trip to the wheelwrights for a new wheel. For the past two years the cost of every item entering into the production of a newspaper has been advanced to such an extent that it becomes imperative to raise the price of subscription to city subscribers, and on August 1st the rate will be $3.00 per year. It cost The Star last year exactly $4.45 for every delivery subscription on our list, which means that we lost 45 cents on each and every one.

With notice of further advances in paper, ink, metal ana the other items necessary for the production of the paper, it comes to the point where we are unable to carry the burden any longer, hence the increase. We might point out that The Star is the only daily paper in Western Canada, with possibly one or two exceptions, that has been delivering papers to its city subscribers at $4.00 a year. Most newspapers have the 10-eent-aweek plan, which means that the paper costs their subscribers $5.20 a year. Again, The Star prints a much larger paper than any of its contemporaries the size of our paper never running below 16 pages while most other publishers nave been keeping their publications down to 10 pages. We believe, however, that when a person subscribes for The Star he is entitled to get ALL the news.

This has always been our aim and it is impossible to print all the news in a 10-page paper. With the above facts before you vTe believe you will not be to paying $1.23 for three months or $5.00 a year for The Star. And Remember, The Star at $5.00 a Year Will Be Bigger and Better Than Ever BOY SCOUTS CONCERT DAYLIGHT MONDAY ONLY The Captivating HAZEL DAWN And IRVING CUMMINGS Grace Methodist Church in Nutana was last night the scene of a very successful concert staged by the Hoy Hi outs, and some 3ftU people were present to enjoy the program Patriotic recitations and songs were highly appreciated, hut perhaps no part of the program proved more Interesting than the drills and evolutions pul on by the scouts themselves.
