VOLUNTEERS FOR THE FRONT.

PRESENTATIONS.

At a meeting of the St James’ Branch of the P.Y.M.C.A., on Saturday morning, the members presented Private Robert RENNIE, one of their number, with an ironclad watch, previous to his departure for active service at the front. The presentation was made by Mr Robert Gladstone, jun., president; and Private RENNIE suitably acknowledged the gift.

The other evening, the members of the Christopher North Lodge, No. 875, entertained Private RENNIE. Bro. John Baird, C.T., occupied the chair, and presented Private RENNIE with a gold albert and badge, suitably inscribed, as a recognition of his loyalty. Private RENNIE suitably replied.

Private RENNIE has also been made the recipient of a silver fountain pen from the Executive of the Middle Ward of Renfrewshire District Lodge, of which he held the position of secretary.
