Donovan has taken him to Sofia, to see Bulgaria's King. Colonel Donovan is aft American observer, travelling without official endorsement from the United States Government. Yet some diplomatists in Sofia consider his trip to be more important than that of Under Secretary of State Sumner Welles last winter.This may be because Mr. Welles had some questions to ask, but Colonel ©onovan may have something to tell. Besides that, he is a visible representative ci a powerful nation which has now definitely hitched its political wagon to the star of a British victory. His presence in those European cities which are still capitals of doubt may help to stiffen the morale of threatened cabinet ministers. An American in the Balkans under such circum stances as those surrounding Colonel Donovan's visit shows how far afield today run the ramifications of American foreign policy. Americans are beginning to be aware of the impossibility of drawing any static defense line across changing maps. Because geogra phy is not really the ultimate determinant of defense, a nation’s best defense is where its friends are. That is recognized .in the supplies-to-Britain program. A program of building a national defense consists by the same logic of building new friendships and re inforcing old ones. Admiral Leahy is Ambassador to Vichy to throw what weight he may against French political forces that would willingly give the Nazis maximum aid against Britain. Ambassador Phillips in Rome will doubtless watch carefully for all opportunities to harmonize his own country's interests- with those of Italy’s—which, it is safe to say, are not necessarily Germany’s. Elsewhere, financial and economic aid has become an American ambassador-at-large. United States pol icies of lending in South America are. designed to curb Axis pressures there, and may help some of . those countries finance trade with hungry Axis- squeezed Spain. In China, the fight for the Open Door has now become part of the anti-Axis campaign, since Japan has aligned itself with Rome and Berlin. At home, Americans are exerting heavy diplomatic pressure against the Axis and upon all wavering neutrals, and meanwhile giving encouragement to temporarily conquered peoples, through Presidential and other official utterances. These tend to galvanize the '■American people’ into action. They prepare the population for needed sacrifices for the defense pro gram. But the individual American likewise is making a definite contribution to this diplomatic offensive in cheerfully shouldering heavier taxes, working longer hours and risking investment for plant expansion. For back of the diplomats who travel far and wide, back of the words of the authorities at Washington there must accumulate physical equipment for an antl-Axis ending to this war. Production and mbre production is’the big stick behind the needfully not- tbo-ioft talking. The actual war material, the num bers of American planes in European skies—these will make possible maximum benefits from expert diplomacy. Indeed the diplomacy “become* dangerous unless backed by greatly speeded production.—The Christian Science Monitor. Methodists Sound Call To War ServiceChester A. Smith of Peekshill, iN.Y., Lay Leader of the New York Methodist Conference, has sent a plan of action to Lay Leaden of the Churches of the Conference inviting them to help to create in the United States a public opinion which will bring about the speedy defeat of the Axis powers with the sub sequent formation of a World Union. Mr. Smith urges Church members to stand behind the policy of President (Roosevelt “He has not only made America the leader of the democratic peoples in the defence of democracy in its gigantic contest with despotism,” Mr. Smith declares, “but by his mes sage to ongress he linked America's destiny with the destiny of the world and put America in the position of being the moral leader of mankinfl. This is the role for'which in the providence of God, I be lieve we have been cast and if, because of lack of courage or of faith, we fail to fulfill that destiny, we shall not long survive. * “We should give all possible aid to Britain, Greece and China, because they are fighting our battle. For my part, I should like to see a portion, of our Pacific Fleet sent to Singapore? That would let the Japanese people know that we do not propose to see China de feated any more than we mean to see Britain de feated." The Methodist Church, with its 8,000,000 members should be one of the most 'powerful agencies in the nation to create a public opinion in favor of the de feat of the Axis powers and in favor of a World Union of democratic peoples. “Guards of The North” “Guards of the North", January release in the ser ies Canada Carries On, produced by the National Film Board in co-operation with the Director of Pub lic Information, was released throughout Cahada on January 23. After the fall of Norway, Iceland became one of the most important strategic pointe in die Atlantic, If it had become a* Nazi ibase^ it would have been a permanent threat to the sea-lanes between North America and Britain. Here in film is the story of how it was quickly converted into a fortress by the British and Canadian troops who occupied it. Their life on the island and their rapid transformation of the kingdom from a peaceful, undefended state to a wartime footing is dramatically shown. Defended now by the Royal Navy’s control of the sea-routes, by coastal artillery and anti-aircraft guns, and by regiments of fighting men fully equipped with modern weapons, it rests secure from Nazi invasion. Tlmjife of the men who man the defences is pre- s*i»«ed in detail. They had to build, for their long vigil, a new community. Here you see them at work building new homes, pulling guns into position, training with every kind of weapon to cope with a possible invasion, and on the lighter side, bathing and playing games of'football and horshoes, and fraternizing at ease with the .people of Iceland.— From Office of Public Information.

MeL*o< (tteuvuek The urgent cry comes from Eng land for as many w-oqRen^nitts as the women of Canada can Send, Mrs. Wallace Campbell, naiifinal chairman of the Women’s War Work- Com mittee of the Canadian Red Cross Society, reported recently. Two-way mitta,z whole mitts and rifle mitts, directions for which are found in the Red “Cross Knitting Book, are needed .in large quantities, the Chairman said. Rifle mitts are made in khaki wool only, but navy blue, grey,_ khaki or air force blue wool may be used foe- whole mitts and two-way mitts. “I know that the women of Can ada do not need, either praise or encouragement in the work it is our duty to do,” Mrs. Campbell com mented, “but surply there must be great satisfaction for them in the comments we get from Britain on the wonderful quality of their work. I do urge them to‘keep their needles working at top speed. < The mitts are needed for use in cold winter weath er, so now is the time to make them—not next week or the week after, but to-day." Shortage of mitts in Britain is due to the fact that huge quantities of these articles are being handed out at eastern Canadian ports by the Canadian Red Cross to men of the British Navy who arrive in- desperate need of clothing. In this connect ion, Mrs. Campbell urged even great er effort on the part of women with their knitting for the men of the seas. Mrs, Campbell referred to the praise given by Earl Beatty to the fticles made by Canadian women for the men of the navy. “He said he had seen note better •mywhere,” sh .said, “and his tri PNEUMOINA BELTS The title does not indicate a new remedy for pneumonia. It has been adopted by the Toronto Star to point out that pneumonia in North America is confined chiefly to two clear-cut areas which are called pneu monia belts. One of these belts is in the east, beginning with the Canadian Prov ince of Quebec and extending to Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick, and along the Atlantic coast. In this area all but four states have pneumonia death rates above the average.. The second pneumonia belt consists four states in the mountain region, namely, Col orado, New Mexico, Arizona and Nevada. Contrary to usual public opinion, neither latitude nor a cold climate conduce to the onset of pneumonia. Tqe provinces of Saskatchewan, Al berta and fhe state of South Dakota are safer from pneumonia than are South Carolina. Georgia and Ari zona, which have warmer climates. It appeal's that a combination of cold climate and low average humidity as is fourfd in Saskatchewan, Alberta and a number of the United State*, operates in favor of a low pneumnia incidence. ^Lbout 30,000 Canadians annually Income ill of pneumonia arid until recently, one out of every four at tacked, died of it. .Now, thanks to the discovery of drug* of the <ul- phanilamide class the live* of nine out of ten victims can be saved. Last year in hospital practice prieu- «monia death* were reduced by two- third*. But there remain* the prob lem of prevention. The chief item* in the prevention of pneumonia are: 1. Clearing up foci of infection. 2. The use of the protective /Tbod*: Meat, milk, egg*, fish, fresh vegetables and fruit. 3. Plenty of re*t and relaxation. 4. Immediate bed when a cold or an attack of flu’ come* on. age, and in children one to five more than scarlet fever and diphtheria combined," the Michigan Department Health declares in a recent report. Acting on this fact, Michigan is eikleavouring to do for the preven tion of whooping cough what many Canadian cities Wave done toward the eradication of diphtheria. A new pertussis vaccine, which has proved its efficacy .during‘field tests cover ing a four-year period and involving some 4,000 children, is being distri buted throughout the State. Tests with identical groups of 100 children recently showed 15.1 cases of whooping eough among the un vaccinated, and only 2.3 among the vaccinated. Some, of these were questionable or very light attacks, and if these were eliminated the pro portion would be 14.5 in unprotected and 1.4 in protected children, says the department's publication, Michi gan Public Health. At least one other State is report ed experimenting with a similar vac cine, and the fight against whooping cough is likely to become ;widespp>ad in the next few yqars.

Some of the projects the club has undertaken in a material way were touched upon by Mr. Johnston, who mentioned that there were many other things that could not be seen that mattered more and had brought happiness to homes, and families that . would not otherwise have received aid. In this connection a letter was read from CapL Ben. F. Holmes, thanking £he club for the cigarettes sent to the Ingersoll Boys overseas at Christmas. The thanks of the Club to Mr. Johnston for his interesting talk was voiced by Kiwanian John J. Mc Leod. The village teacher was having dif ficulty with' some little evacuees.

Phone GO’ * INGERSOLL THAN IT HAS BEEN IN 1940 ...i t is going to demand more effort, more sgcrifite and far more thange in our daily lives ALREADY the pattern and pace of life in Canada > have undergone a profound change. Gaps in employment are rapidly filling up. Some 350,000 Canadians who were unemployed before the outbreak of. war are now employed. Another 200,000 are with our armed forces. Factories, which until recently were turning out goods for civilian consumption, have been transformed. into humming arsenals, pouring out in struments. of war. Night and day shifts have become the rule rather than the exception. But the peak of effort is not yet in sight. In 1941 still more factories will switch to war produc tion ... new plants will be established, thousands more will be employed. This rising tide of activity must continue-until we reach the flood of effort when every Canadian will be employed and working to his utmost, every possible square inch of plant will be utilized, every wheel will be whirring in the race we are waging against time and the enemy. l More men are working . . . working longer hours . . . making more munitions . . . earning more money . . . producing more goods . . . putting more money into circulation. Most Canadians are sharing in thia in creased national wealth — have extra dollars in their pockets. The effort the Prime Minister calls for is gaining momentum, but many Canadians, as individuals, have not yet felt the real pinch of sacrifice. Canadians of all classes ate sharing tax burdens, but it must be admitted that up to date the larger part of the money needed for Canada's war effort has come from business firms and individuals with large income*. They ate paying high taxes. They have already invested heavily in War Loan Bonds. ■ ■ w -■ • • • RT. HON. W. L MACKENZIE KING(New Vf AW evt IMS)\This is not enough. The plain truth is that Canadas rapidly expanding production for war purposes will require increasing sums of money. That is why the Prime Minister warned Canadians in his New Year’s broadcast that the year ahead demands more effort and more sacrifice. Every man, wSffnan and child is asked to lend.. Every dollar you tend will help to put another man in a job . . . making more munitions. Every dollar you lend may save a soldier’s life . . . help to shorten the war. Small wage earners must carry their share of the burden, too. No one need go without necessities, but you are urged to forego the purchase of unnecessary articles . . . however small the cost ... no matter how well you are able to pay for them . . . which take labour and material away from t|)e great task of providing goods needed to win the war. This is your war. Everything you have , . . everything you believe in ... is now at stake. This is a message to you . . a challenge to every Canadian ... a call to the colours ... a coll for volunteers. ' Be sure to make provision to pay your Income Tax—- payment is made easier by the new instalment plan. But be prepared to do more t budget your earnings to make sure that you will have money available to buy War Savings Certificates and to subaenbe for War Loan Bonds.

Working in the London laboratory of a firm of manufacturing chem ists, Dr. Lionel Whitby, bacteriolog ist to the Middlesex Hospital, tried again. As if by magic the 693rd family of dying mice revived.
