Thousands lined the streets of Ing­ ersoll on Friday evening to witness —, the parade of the various bands to ’ ’victoria Park, for the sixth annual Band Tattoo and Entertainment sponsored by the Ingersoll Pipe Band. While the attendance at the park was greater than last year, the gate receipts were not as large as the calibre of the program warranted, for many remained in their cars out­ side the grounds to enjoy the pro­ gram. instead of paying the small admission charge to help swell the net proceeds which are to be given to the local war charities.

The Ingersoll Telephone Com­ pany suffered considerably from the effects of the storm. Manager H. I. Stewart reported twenty-five lines out which affected some 250 tele­ phones, the damage was from falling trees. Embro suffered heaviest, the village being completely isolated from telephone and hydro communications. Trees were uprooted and hydro and telephone lines, poles and cables were strewn about the streets. The path of the storm was about four miles in width and the miniature hurricane travelled from the north west in a south easterly direction, with the village of Embro in the centre of its path, and continued through north of Wodstock. The town of Ingersoll escaped except for a few branches that wejje tom from trees. The barn of George Budden, Lot 15, Concession 1, West Zorra, was flattened and one farmer north west of there reports that trees meas­ uring about two and a half feet in diameter, 'were torn from their roots and twisted into kindling wood.

VKAL*Proprietor and EditorFMOKBit— Tribune OCSm, 1« Rerideace, 5543Rm GweAtae WwkJf NvnjMfmra’ Aesootation THURSDAY. AUGUST 1st, 1940 Leading Manufacturing Province* Ontario and Quebec are the most important manufac­ turing provinces of Canada. Their combined product­ ion in 1937 amounted to 32,927,000,000 or over 80 p.c. of the grow value of manufactured product* of the Dominion. The proximity of Ontario ^to the coal fields of Pennsylvania, the water power and other varied resources of the two province*, and their near­ ness to the larger markets of Canada and the United States, have all contributed to the above result, Brit­ ish Columbia had in 1937 the third largest gross manufacturing production with 7.0 p.c. of the total, and Manitoba the fourth with 4.0 p.c.; Alberta, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan, and Prince Edward Island followed in the order named. The outstanding predominance of Ontario and Quebec is most nearly approached by British Colum­ bia in the case of the wood and paper products group, where the latter province accounts for 14.0 p.c. of the gross production compaied with 39-0 p.c. for Ontario and 32.1 p.c. for Quebec; in each of the other groups the positions of Ontario and Quebec led by a wide margin. British Columbia, the third manufacturing prov­ ince, has, in point of sixe, 41 establishments with in­ dividual gross production of over $1,000,000, com­ pared with 305 for Ontario, 177 for Quebec, 22 for Manitoba, 18 for Alberta, 13 for Nova Scotia, 12 for New Brunswick, and 9 for Saskatchewan. Capi­ tal investment, employees, and other factors, show variation, in proportion to the sixe of establishment and according to the nature of the industries con­ cerned, (the 3 in Manitoba with production of over $5,090,000 for instance, employed over five times as many persons as the 3 in the same class in Saskat­ chewan, and the 4 in the same class in British CoL ' wmbid employ over thirteen times as many on the average as the 3 in Saskatchewan) but in a broad way the factor of sixe is reflected throughout the Statistics. The gross value of the manufactured products of Ontario in 1937 represented about 52 p.c. of the total for the whole Dominion, while that of Quebec amounted to about 29 p.c. This premier position in manufacturing has been fairly uniformly maintained by Ontario, as the following percentages show: In 1926, 52 p.c.; 1918, 53 p.c.; 1910, 50 p.c.; 1900, 50 p.c.; and 1890, 51 p.c. In spite of the rapid industrial development in recent years in other provinces, such as Quebec, British Columbia, and Manitoba, Ontario is maintaining a manufacturing production roughly equal to that of the remainder of the Dominion. Among the assess of Quebec, which have tended to develop manufacturing industries in the province, may be mentioned its natural resources of forests, water powers, minerals, and agricultural lands, and also its geographic position astride the St. Lawrence estuary permitting sea-going shipping to reach its main centres of population. Added to these natural advan­ tages, there is a stable and industrious population, which is an important factor in industries such as textiles, clothing, boots and shoes, etc., where a large labour force is required. National Registration If by chance there are yet some Canadians who do not fully appreciate first that there is a war on, and Secondly that practically everybody in Canada is involved in the country’s major job the national reg­ istration of all citizens this month will remove all misunderstandings. None will escape the duty of an­ swering the questions, and moat people will not fail to grasp the significance of these questions. Only a single reading of the nineteen questions is required for a good understanding that we are about to conscript not only the necessary men for our fighting forces, but men and women of all descriptions for a special war programme for industry and agriculture. Every man must tell whether he was brought up on a farm; how long be worked on a farm; whether he can handle a horse, drive a tractor, use farm mach­ inery, milk a cow. Every woman must inform the government whether she can milk, drive a truck or car, handle horses, do plain cooking; whether she has had any. experience in any branch of farming, be it chickens, fruit general or dairy. Then'note this question: "Do your circumstances permit you to serve in this present national crisis by changing your present occupation to some other to which you are qualified? (a) Where you can return home daily? (b) Away from homo?” Here is one of the first definite signs that we in Canada are about to put into action those plans for regimentation which we have accepted as necessary in the fight to avoid permanent regimentation, 'll is considered extremely likely that well before the end of this year, the Government agencies will be reach­ ing out to this citizen and that giving directions that they begin work in certain essential industries. And when next spring rolls around, the fanner will no. longer be wondering where he is going to find his hired help for the extra acreage he is pledged to work. Further tightening of war regulations is observed* in the amendment of the budget resolutions at Ottawa under which the War Time Prices and Trade Board is given unlimited policing power, and assumes full re­ sponsibility for. seeing -that no one in Canada, takes undue advantage of the 10 per cent. War-Exchange Tax to be levied on all good* brought in to Canada from other countries. It will be the duty of the Board to see that all importers, wholesalers and retail mer­ chants do not increase the price of the goods by an amount great* r than any justified by any increase in cost arising from Meh tax. * Any perron who takes advantage of the tax to increase prices unduly may have an excise tax up to 10 per cent imposed on all .or any'of his goods in which be deals, and become subject to other drastic punishment.

Some satisfaction may be derived from the quiet preparation being made by the Canadian National Exhibition for the ^annual show, in Toronto thia month. Far from interrupting the country’s war work, the Exhibition, will really enhance our effort by helping to reVeal in part what industry and ■gri- eulture is doing in co-ordinating the effort of individ­ ual citizens into a national contribution. Everybody likes to have a look once in a while at what the other fellow is doing, and the Exhibition gives just tach an opportunity. SWIMMING POOLSThis is the season for the annualbarrage against swimming pools by those who have little knowledge of the subject. A modern swimming pool with proper management and operation affords as safe and sanitary a place to swim in as can be found any- * where. Sauitation of the modern tile or concrete pool is based on the same principle as sanitation of the supply of drinking water for cities which have a water supply that is originally polluted. This consists of filtration through presMire or gravity tanks, and treatment of the water with the proper amount of chlorine er ammonia or both. The use of chlorine plus ammonia forms chlor­ amine, which is practically non-irri­ tating to the eyes. The addition of the ammonia renders the chlorine more stable in the water when exposed to the sun and air, tends to prevent the growth of algae and permits of the use of smaller amounts of chlorine in the water. The water in the modern pool can be kept at drinking water standards of purity. It is important that a municipal pool be under proper management and that simple regulations regarding hygiene, the use of foot baths of sodium hypochlorite, to prevent de­ velopment of ringworm, athlete’s foot and the like, be employed. There is no danger of the trans­ mission of venerea] disease in -the pool. Proper sanitation of toilets, is of course, necessary. In some indivi­ duals infection of the ear may de­ velop through forcing bacteria up the eustachian tube. Persons with open ear drums have to be warned against the danger of diving. No epidemics of respiratory affections appear to have been reported from a properly de­ signed and operated municipal pool. GUARD AGAINST DISEASE GERMS Pointing out that disease germs take no time out for summer vaca­ tions, Dr. Gordon Bates, General Director of the Health League of Canada, the other day issued a warn­ ing that all milk, especially that given to children, should be pasteurized in the interests of health preservation. "The fact that a child is on holi­ day is no sufficient reason for lower­ ing of safeguards as regards diet,” said Dr. Bates. "He still needs a full supply of fruit, vegetables, eggs, meat, fish, cheese and milk, and it is j»f the first importance that the milk be pasteurized.” Where the ready purchases of commercially pasteurized milk is im­ possible, Dr. Bates explained, the fluid may be processed at the cost of but little time and trouble in sum­ mer home or camp. The milk, he explained, should be heated in a double-boiler to a tem­ perature of about 145 degrees F. then allowed to stand at the back of the stove for 30 minutes at a tem­ perature of not less than 143 de­ grees. It should then be cooled rapidly to 45 degrees F, after which it is ready to use. Guesswork as to temperature, is not sufficient, Dr. Bates added. A kitchen thermometer should be used during the heating. HEALTH ORGANIZATIONS Any suggestion that the work of voluntary health organizations should be taken over by the government arises from a failure to understand the functions and value of these var­ ious societies, so states an editorial in the current issue of the Health League of Canada's magazine "Health.” Private volunteer organizations give eitizens an opportunity to par­ ticipate in and understand move­ ments of national importance, the editorial writer claims. “Were any of them to be allowed to die the re­ sult would be a slowing up in the progress ■ of the slowly growing movement toward national health, the progress of which means mtach to the development of civilization itself.” Government support of voluntary health societies la characteristic of Great Britain and,Canada, continues the editorial. "It is a demonstration of the fact that in Anglo-Saxon coun­ tries we appreciate democratic prin­ ciples to the full. Voluntary soci­ eties in themselves are small democ­ racies." The editorial urges governments to continue the support of private organizations , and advises govern- (menta to call upon these societies for aid when emergencies arise. "It is very significant that in Ge»f many voluntary societies seem to have disappeared, ** the editorial notes. “Rotary Clubs and trade un­ ions seem to have vanished too.

Gardiner Tells How War Events Affect Farm Markets W AYS An outline of the situation as it exists at present in regard to Agricul­ tural supplies and the war was given by Hon. James G. Gardiner, Domin­ ion Minister of Agriculture, when the Conference of Dominion and Pro­ vincial representative* opened in Ottawa on July 18th. The Conference continued until July 20th. Mr. Gardiner said the purpose of the Conference was to continue the discussions which were begun 4 t the start of the war. It was then, he ex­ plained, impossible to lay down a definite policy or program for any time ahead other than that farmers should continue to do what they had been doing before the war. Since then events of , such an unforeseen character have occurred that it is now impossible to change the phlloy with regard to'agriculture and it is impossible to forecast events for even a month ahead. Referring to the possibility of a market for Canadian food products in Great Britain, Mr. Gardiner, said the statement of the British Minister of Agriculture and also of the Brit­ ish Prime Minister was that Britain is not worrying at present about its' food supply. Whether there will be cause for concern next year time and events will disclose. Over there they are trying to' step up the pro­ duction of their own food supplies. What in happening throughout the world is undoubtedly going-to affect the sale of Canadian farm products detrimentally or otherwise.

For the time being, Britain dqes not want additional quantities. Mr. Gardiner explained that Britain and Canada are the only markets at present for Canadian bacon. The only bright spot In the mar­ keting situation is that dairy pro­ ducts, especially Canadian cheese are wanted by Great Britain, and also certain concentrated forms of milk are also in demand. Mr. Gardiner, In referring to wheat, said there is now at least 250 million bushels of wheat in the eleva­ tors in Canada. The 1940 crop may total 400 jnillion bushels. Allowing 150 million bushels for food and seed and other purposes to meet the entire needs of the people of Canada there will be after the year’s harvest a total of at least 500 million bushels on hand. There is storage space in terminal country and other elevators of 440 million bushels, Britain in peace time only buys 200 million bushels from all countries, and It cannot be expected that all its pur­ chases of wheat in war time will be made fa Canada.

There was an attendance of about 200 including mother* and friends of of the young folks. They enjoyed an interesting program presented by the pupils and later viewed the work that had been done during the past two week*. This included a fine map showing the progress of Christianity around the world which the juniors had been working on; paper work done by the primary department and beginners; some neat woollen jackets and boottees made by the intermed­ iate girls; and woodwork including whatnots by the intermediate boys. An interesting announcement made by Mr*. R. C. Kilgour, superin­ tendent of the school and chairman of this program, was that part of the offering received during the school sessions will go, together with those from other vacation schools throughout Canada, toward bringing out 100 children from England. There was a number of beautiful scrap books of Bible themes which had been done by the pupils and these were to be given for the ben­ efit of sick children in hospitals. Miss Grace Sivyer presided at the piano for the opening number, “0 Canada,” which was followed by a brief devotional period. Mrs. Kilgour then gave a short address, telling of the work which the school has done so successfully for a number of years. Those contributing to the program were as follows: Beginners in charge of Mrs. F. Funnel!, Mrs. G. Vincent Wilson, (presiding at the piano), and Mr*. J. Moon, songs, “I Want to be a Little Helper,” "The Fish Story," recitation, “Down in the Cellar” and “Tell Me the Stories of Jesus”; song, Reba Vincent, "Can a Little Child Like Me”; primary de­ partment, songs, “Hail, Hail Vacation School is Here,” “My Work," “Peter Rabbit,” poem by six girls, “Where To Find Beauty,” “The Swing Sung,” singing game and dramatization of the story, “The Good Shepherd."

Scotch and Irish dances were given by 6 young ladies, Misses Mary Muir, Helen Campbell, Joyce Campbell, Annie McPherson, and Mary McAr­ thur, Embro, and Marion Cushing, London. Pipe Major Alex. Collins of the Ingersoll Pipe Bpnd played their accompaniment. The highlight of the evening's pro­ gram was the playing and drills by the Charles A. Hammond, Post No. 8, American Legion 52 Piece Band and Drill Corps from Port Huron, Michigan, under the direction of Henry Socha, manager, and Frank Staigner,'musical director. This was: the first appearance of tins drum and bugle corps in this part of Can­ ada, and they received a big hand from the crowd. They presented a smart appearance in their dark blue uniforms with white stripes on the trousers and white helmets, and white Sam Brown belts and shoulder decorations. The band was introdu­ ced to the audience by Mr. T. E. Pressey, of Sarnia, sponsor of the Pressey Transport Boys’ Band, who was born a few miles south of Ingersoll and received his public school education at Putnam. The Pressey Transport Boys* Band of Sarnia, under the leader­ ship of Bandmaster F. B. Freele, also presented a feature in their musical drill. During the intermission period the refreshment booths operated by the Ingersoll Branch of the Canadian Legion and the Ingersoll Branch of the Canadian Red Cross Society did a thriving business. Following the intermission the pro­ gram included numbers by the ^Irl dancers and by the bands and the concluding number was the'playing of “Huie Britannia" and “Abide With Me," by the massed bands un­ der the leadership of Mr. F. B. Freele. “You're looking downcast, ,ol man. What’s on your mind?” “A piece of my wife’s." a story entitled, “An African Vil­ lage,” and sang the chorus, “FUng Wide the Banner.” The intermed­ iates in charge of Mias Grace Sivyer and Mrs. W. Weld gave the song, “Be Strong Ye Sons of Canada." The entire school gave the popular war song, “There'll Always Be An England,” and after the presentation of certificates to all who had attended three days or more, the exercises came to a fitting conclusion with the singing of “God Save the King," and the benediction by Rev. H. P. Haw- tln.

The shaded lawn was a cool retreat from ihe swelter­ ing heat of the day. The early part of the afternoon was spent in playing softball and swimming. At 6.30 a picnic sapper was served in the pav­ ilion with over sixty sitting down to enjoy the fine repast that was pro­ vided. Clifford J.

Lynch, King street, Weston, Ontario, whose seven-year- eld son, Jimmie Lynch, was drowned in the Humber river, near his home on Wednesday afternoon, July 24th. Both Mr. and Mrs. Lynch are natives of Ingersoll and are well known loc­ ally, and the /bung lad had a num­ ber of friend* in town whom he met when on visit* here with his grand­ parents and other relatives. The funeral was held from the family residence, Weston, on Friday afternoon, with service at the house at 3 o’cock, and interment was made in the Weston Cemetery. The rela­ tives from here who motored to Weston for the funeral, included his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas B. Patterson, King street east, and Mr, J. J. Lynch, Francis street; Mrs. Viola Waterhouse, Miss Helen Lynch, and Mr. and Mrs. W. Blair Walker. The account of the tragedy as re­ ported in a Weston dispatch appear­ ing in the Toronto Daily Star of Thursday last follows: “Seven-year-old Jimmie Lynch, King street, Weston, drowned in the Humber river, opposite the Pine Point Golf Club, on Wednesday, July 24th. The boy went swimming with an­ other seven-year-old, Dick Emmett shortly before four o’clock. At 5 p.m. be was missed by the Emmett boy. Hie body was not recovered from the river until 9.30, police state. “He had pleaded with his mother and me, to let him go swimming,” Clayton J. Lynch, the boy’s father told The Star. “We only let him go because the other lad could swim. Jimmie was afraid of the water and normally would never go above his knees. “The town should do something to supply a safe swimming place for children. There is nothing but a dirty germ-filled hole for children to swim in. It is a disgrace that the town has not provided a place for children to go where they can be supervised. There is not a safe place within miles of Weston.” According to Chief J. E. Holley, about 150 children and adults were swimming in- the river when the boy was drowned. The Emmett boy told the chief when Jimmie had disap­ peared he looked for him for about an hour, then went home and told Mr. and Mrs. Lynch their boy was lost. Bathers joined hands and waded down the river over the area where the swimming had taken place in an effort to find the body. Young men dived into the muddy waters of a 12-foot hole. The body was finally brought to the surface by Vincent Filiary of St Alban's Park, who lo­ cated it at the bottom of the hole. Coroner Dr. F. D. Cniickshank, who was waiting at the scene imme­ diately started artificial respiration whch was kept up for more than an hour with no success. According to the coroher a post mortem is being conducted and an inquest may be held. The drowning is the second fatality at the same place. Two years ago a young boy was drowned when he dived in and struck his head. It is the fifth drowning in the Toronto district in the past week.” BANNER DORCHESTERThe fourth annual Knox-Ovenafamily reunon waa hold at the homeof Mr. and Mr*.

A tevifle windstorm, which reach­ed tornadf strength for a short time, passed c»ir this district around mid­night, oraThursday last, which left in its path several minor damages to telephonelbnd telegraph poles, trees, some garden- in the village being re­ported as bfldly damaged by the wind and also eome of the crops were hit. A roof on a large barn of ThomasO’Neill, about four miles southeast of the village, was practically de­molished. The portion of the roof left on the barn was of no value, as theshingles were mostly ripped off. The barn on George Sudden’s farm, aformer resident here, but now retir­ ing east of Kintore, was lifted upwithout disturbing the hay that wasin it. The barn, considerably dam­ aged, is still laying on his farm,with the hay neatly in its proper place, where the bam used to be. Born—To Mr. and Mr*. Graham Sheriff, on July 28th, a son.

Then he asked, "By the way, who posted you here?” “No one, sir,” said the recruit. “I’m just practicing.” GERTRUDE W. WALLACEBRIDE OF G.E. CROKEROne of the season’s prettiest wed-tiest wedding was solemnized on Sat­urday afternoon last, at St. James’Anglican Church, the rector. Rev.H. E. Medfield, officiating, whenGertrude Winn if red, fifth daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Wallace, Avonlea street, Ingersoll, became the bride of Gailer Ernest Croker, son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Croker, Norwich. A mas* of white bloom and lighted tapers adorned the altar and baskets of gorgeous flowers formed a lovely setting for the affair. Promptly at four o’clock to th* strain* of the wedding music played by Mias Iva Croker, sister of the groom, the bride entered the church on the arm of her father, and was lovely in a street length frock of heavenly blue sheer with white pic­ ture hat and white accessories, and carried a shower bouquet of red roses lied with white ribbon. Miss Jeanette Wallace was her sister’s only attend­ ant, and wore a smart gown in aahes uf rows abide, with a matching hat and white accessories, and carried white sweet peas, pink roses and blue delphinium tied with blue ribbon. The groom was supported by hiq brother, Leonard Croker of Peta- wawa. During the signing of the register, Miss Croker played “I Love You Truly.” Following the ceremony, a recep­ tion for 25 guests was held at the St. Charles Coffee Shop, where a'buffet lunch was served, the table being very attractive with streamers of pink and white, bouquets of sweet peas, ivory tapers and the bride’s cake, topped* with pink and white sweet peas. Baskets of beautiful summer flowers graced the banquet hall. The bride’s mother assisted the bridal couple in receiving the guests and wore a very becoming navy and white printed silk ensemble, with large white hat, and a corsage of cream rosebuds and pansies. The groom’s mother who also assisted in receiving, wore a smart * frock of white flowered sheer, with white hat and a corsage of cream rose*. Mr. and Mrs, Croker left later in the afternoon on a motor trip to Montreal, the bride choosing for trav­ elling a blue ensemble with white accessories. On their return they will make their home on Mam street, Norwich, carrying with them the best wishes of a host of Ingersoll friends for a happily wedded life. The groom’* gift to the bridesmaid was a gold locket; to the best man, a gold bar pin and to the organist, a gold bracelet, as mementos of the happy occasion.

I want a pup.” — From —THE CANADANRED CROSS SOCIETYWith many summer day* yet tocome, the Canadian Red Cros* So­ciety la already thinking in term* ofFall and Winter, and women all everthe country are urged to knit gloves, mittens, cap* and helmet* for men of all branches of the active service. “These articles will be needed by the thousands,” Mrs. Wallace Gamp­bell, national chairman of the Wom­ en’s War Work Committee, said re­ cently. “In these days of warm weather, some might find it hard to concentrate on the need for woollen glove* and helmets, but the Canadian Red Cros* must continue its policy of being prepared and fully equipped to meet any emergency.” The same all-service wool used for socks may be used for gloves, mittens, helmets and caps, Mr*. Campbell said. Instructions for all types of these articles are in the Red Cross Knitting Book and should be follow­ ed carefully. “We must, of course, keep cur­ rent with the year-round demand for socks,” Mrs. Campbell said, “but gloves and helmets must also claim a great deal of our attention. All through the months since war was de­ clared, we have been able to meet every emergency at home and over­ seas for the simple reason that the women of Canada have been making the articles we need most rather than the things they themselves like to make.” Tennis New* Last Wednesday evening the local tennis club entertained a team from the St Thomas club and the local* suffered their first defeat of the sen- son by a decided score of 10-2. After the matches the guests and member* of the Ingersoll team were entertain­ ed at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Wilson, Oxford street, and lunch was enjoyed. Early in August the locals will go to Tillsonburg and later in the month the retrain match with St. Thoma* will be played in St. Thomas. Ingcuu soll players of the last tournament were as follows: Men—Jack Love, Harold Wilson, Geo. Crown, Norm. Kurtzman, War­ wick Marshall, Max Glutton. Ladies—Mary Johnson, Mrs. War­ wick Marshall, Mrs. Harold Wilson, Mary Stephenson, Mrs. Henry, Mis* Dunn.

Complete Plans For Registration of AU Canadians Plans for the registration of all Canadians having reached the age of 16 years were made known by Hon. James G. Gardiner, Minister of Na­ tional War Services, in the House of Commons. Necessary organization has been created. It is hoped that registration will he completed by the end of August. Members of Parliament have nom­ inated registrars and deputy regis­ trars in their constituencies, and they in turn will appoint deputy regis­ trars in all polling sub-divisions. The deputy registrars will post notices of registration as soon as-the dates are fixed and will secure registration booths All persons are required to attend registration booths on the given dates, to answer questions (18 for men, 19 for women), put to them by The Perfect Thirst Quencher"S A L A MBESSS) T E A i!W the deputy registrars. Answers will be written on registration cards. In cases where a person is ill or incap­ acitated the deputy registrar may send an assistant to compile the registration at that person’s home. If a person fails to register, he or f>he will be punished by a fine of $200 or imprisonment for three months or both, with an additional penalty of $10 a day for each day elapsing between the close of regis­ tration and the person's registration or trial. -A fine of $100 is provided for re­ fusal to answer any registration question; a fine of $200 or three months* imprisonment or both for giving misleading answers; and a fine of $200 and imprisonment for any person advising any citizen to refuse or omit to comply with the regula­ tions or impeding any officer in carrying out the regulations. All persons will be given registra­ tion certificates, which they will have to carry with them at all times. Penalties are provided for refusal or failure to produce certificates on de­ mand. Other penalties are provided by the Registration Act for the pro­ tection of both the State and the people. In the words of Hon. James G. Gardiner, registration of all the people of Canada will serve two pur­ poses, “the first one being to get a complete picture of the conditions ex­ isting with respect to man-power and woman-power in Canada today, with regard to where they are, their background and their condition of health. All information of that kind would be required, and it will be made available • not only to the De­ partment of National Defence, but to all departments of government— old age pensions, health, and so on. This information can be used for different purposes in connection with the care of our population during a period of war, and perhaps after­ wards. “The other purpose is the one which has been outlined, namely that of obtaining registration of those who are available for training in ’Canada immediately and throughout the war period.” Indications are that voluntary or­ ganizations will be set up in sash constituency, in addition to officials appointed by the government, to help carry out the task of registration. Registrars and Members of Parlia­ ments have been deluged with offers of voluntary aid.—From office of Director of Public Information. An optimist and a pessimist were defined by a speaker at a meeting in Falkirk the other day as follows; “An optimist is a man who sees a light that isn’t there, and a pessimist is the fool who tries to blow it out" The following correction appeared in a small town paper: “Our paper carried the notice last week that Mr. John Doe is a defective In the police force. This was a typographical error. Mr. Doe is really a detective in the police farce.” A n n iv e r s a ry Sa le See our windows and special circular for many extraordinary values.
