From the Dawson News of Sspt
17th:
Kev. John Pringle, fonner Yu
kon missionary and for a time pas- j
tor of St Auddrew's church, Daw
sou, and also of tie Presbyterian
congregation in Atlin, B. C., one of
the Dominion's best known Presby
terian divines, -writes from the
lines of the First Canadian In
fantry brigade in France, under date
of July 15. While ia tamp at'
Shorticliffe he looked after thj Pres
byterians of the home forces, al
so. "They were always glad to
see xne, especially when I went in
kilts," he says, and proceeds:
"I was in the trenches & day or
two after getting here. I saw my
own boy, who is well ant' is doing
well He has been recommended
for a commission. He was, of course,
glad to see me. It seemed strange
to mofrt him there, where the spit!
spit! of our own and the German
rifles wis incessant, and the shrap
nel bursting near and the shrill
scream ol our own shells overhead
on thel-r way to the German lines
getting on one's nerveB at first more
than the burst of the enemy's. A
day or two afterwards I buried a
Highlander, McLaughlin, from Glen
garry, a member of John's rlatoo'i,
whose heaa was crushed by a bit
of shrapnel. He 'was buried ia
sight of the enemy's lines, and the
men lay down during the service,
for otherwise they might have
drawn the fire of the German snip
ers or the German guns. It almost
took the heart out of the men. It
w:>s my first experience. A day or
two afterwards I burled another.

"One gets accustomed to it, and,
indeed, unless the shell burets very
near there is not much danger. I
can hear them break now a mile or
sc away, and they are hardly noted
by anyone. I was present yester
day at a Teview of the remnant of
the First Canadian infantry bri
gade by General Preach. He praised
the men greatly—told them they
had surpassed hie expectations of
them, high as these had been. He
told them nothing braver In the his
tory of war surpassed their bravery
when the Germans used the deadly
gas—the dastardly attack, he called
it—and said, moreover, they bad
done more to strengthen and make
permanent the bonds of Empire
than had hitherto been accom
plished.
"The boys looked well in th^tT
soiled khaki, their bayonets glitter
ing in the sun as they presented
arms, when the genera], or, rather,
I should say, the field marshal, ap
peared. But, war is terrible. I
thought I knew something about it
until I got here, where 1 see it in
reality. I love soldiers. 1 hate their
trade. 1 do not want th>6 war to
stop until two things have been
accomplished—till righteousness is
vindicated before a waiting wor'd
and till the nations are so sick of
the horrors of war that the nation
which begins or attempts to begin
another will be an outcast «£ the
human race"

Yellowstone Park Foeeltat '
Of the fossil forests which har» as
far been discovered probably the moat
| remarkable Is to be sees tn TeQov
stone park, where the greater part ot
the trees stand upright In their natural
{ position instead of being reerxmbaat
and scattered about the growad. aa in
other parts ot the world. In Arizona
' the fossilized trunks hare evidently
! been carried a long distance from
where they originally grew. In the
Yellowstone the trees now stand
where they grew and where they w*r»
entombed by the outpouring of rarUwa
volcanic materials.
Now as tie softer rocks surrounding
them are gradually worn away they
j are left standing erect on the steep
hillsides Just as they stood when they
were living. In fact. It ts difficult at •
little distance to distinguish some of
these fossil trunks from the lichen col
ored stumps of kindred living species.
It should not be supposed, ho were*,
that these trees still retain their limbt
and Km(i Her branches, for the mass of
volcanic material falling on them strip
