Actually, they're both pipers in the 154th Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry Highlanders Overseas Battalion. What looks like Hodden Grey is actually a khaki kilt (full khaki kilt, and not just a khaki apron). Here's a photo of my grandfather, who was a piper with the battalion before they went overseas. At first I thought they might have both been in the 21st (Eastern Ontario) Battalion, CEF, out of Kingston, Ontario, but they're lacking the collar dogs of the 21st. I come to this conlusion because of the uniforms, and that the OP said that his family came from Woodlands, which was in Stormont County. I'll have a crack at IDing some of the other pics.
