TEMPERANCE IN THE ARMY.
The White Rose of Yorkshire Lodge No. M. 125 of the new Regiment held their first concert on Wednesday night at the Boldiers' and Sailora Home, Arsenal Street. It proved a success and severalifrioods signified their inten. tion of jolning the canso and signing the pledge. The Rev. J. R. Temple, who presided, spoke very highly of the White Rose Lodge and fis membership.
The musical part of the programma was ably applied by Mr. Peel, one of the "Scallywags," and Langa-Corporal Wood, of the F.O.Y.L.I,
The alocationists were Mr. Emberley Birkin- shaw and Mr. Dickson The latter gave a splendid description of "A Soldier's Biblo and Prayer Book and Calendar" (in a pack of cards). The Boloist was Mr. Vickers, whose beautifny mellow voics was greatly appreciated; Mr. Pael gave an imitation of a 'cello in his own voice very cleverly.
Messrs. Northway, Beckhurst, Cooper, Jones and Mulliner also contributed to the pro‹ramme, the latter pair giving a dust. Mr. Maddock's recitation was very pathetic. During the concert the Bev. Dr. Anderson came in and spoke a few encouraging word.
Refreshments wors served all round during. the interval.
At the close Mr. Cooper invited all to join who were in sympathy with the cause and thanked all who had helped in any way whatever. He mentioned that the Rev. J.B Temple was present for the first time, and most probably for the last, as he was leaving very soon on his missionary work. The Lodge wished him success in his work und Ged-speed. The whole company then reso and sang the hymn, "God be with you till we meet again," and the concert Doncluded with the singing of "God Save the King.""
