We do not remember ever to have seen so extraordinary a subscription anywhere. For many years to come the remarkable spon- tensity with which this subscription was supported, its almost universal character and the right good will withvwhich the sub- seriptinns were bestowed for the cause, will the looked back to by ull Cinudinns with i genuine pride. Besides the relief that this fund provides for IndieI it provides a sub- stantial evidence that Canadians have a real interest in the whole Empire and it thus serves the double purpose of philanthropy and patriotism. We do nut believe that any person ever imagined that it was possible for any one agency to miss so large a sum and to enlist the sympathies of snuh an en- ormous number of people as has been done by the Star.
