Celebration of Magna (Jharta
Day On Sunday, June lit.
Celebration of Magna Charta Day,
at Woodstock, Sunday, June 1, will
be at once the signal and the inspir
ation for the opening of the Victory
Loan campaign in Oxford County.
The following Monday, the subscript
ion books for the loan will be opened.
Leaders in the Victory Loan cam
paign feel that there is a special sig
nificance this year in the ceebration
• of Magna Charta Day. This day com
memorates the signing of the first
great charter of human liberties i by
King John at Runnymede in June,
1215. From that .historic day and
from that glorious field at Runny
mede the war cries of free men have
rung down the corridors of time to
these days when embattled Britain
stands again as the citadel of the
rights, privileges and dignity of men
and women everywhere.
The Canadian Legion, recognizing
the importance of the success of the
the Victory Loan for the principles
of the Magna Charta, has advanced
‘ the day of celebration from June 8,
the .day originally set, to June -1.
Further the co-operation of the Le
gion makes possible, in honor of the
L>djy, a mammoth parade and drum-
head service in Woodstock, Sunday,
June 1. Plans for the day are
being worked out by special commit
tees of the Legion and of the Victory
Loan committee. W. J. Roberts
heads the Legion committee; Aid.
Vance Gameau, the Victory Loan
committee.
The parade will blaze-with martial
music. Bands and military units, com
ing from outside the boundaries of
the county, will take part in the par
ade and service. The service will
probably be held in -Southside Park.
• This appears to be the logical site for
the celebration and service because
of the great throng which is ex-
'"pected. AH roads will converge on
Woodstock. At least 15,000 are ex
pected to be present
Emphasizing the significance of
Magna Charta and the Victory Loan
for the social and political rights of
men and women, groups representa
tive of the people and of the civic
authority will share with the military
in the colorful, spectacular observ
ance of the day- Invitations are to
be sent to fraternal orders, municipal
councils, service clubs and other -pr-
ganizaWons to take an active and-
leading part on the events of the
* day. A prominent speaker, coming
from outside the country, is expect’d
to sound the keynote of the Victory
Loan campaign and show its intim
ate, unbreakable connection with
the sighing of the Magna Charta.
— "^Victory Loan and Legion leaders
Said:
‘•The signature of King John to the,
Magna Charta was the signature to
undying constitutional principles.
The rignature of men and women to
the "Victory Loan pledges is no less
important, now that Hitler challen
ges the very structure which sprang
from the Magna Charta. Sign for
liberty—sign for victory!” '

I COME a*d BRING THE CHILDREN - EVERYTHING FREE
The young lads who participated
in the Minor Hockey League spon
sored by th Ingersoll Y’s Men’s Club
during the past winter, were guests
of the club at a banquet held in St.
Paul’s Presbyterian Church Sunday
School Hall on Thursday evening.
May 15th. The occasion was a real
red letter day in the lives of the
teen-'aged boys who were privileged
to meet Red Horner, former star
defence pfayer for the Toronto Maple
Leaf* in the National Hockey League,
also the famous Kraut forward line
of the Boston Bruins, Bobby Bauer,
Porky Dumart and Milt Schmidt of
this year’s Stanley Cup winners.
These boys, whose homes are in
Kitchener and Waterloo were accom
panied here by another former Na
tional League star, Lloyd Gross, who
played last winter with the St. Paul,
Minnesota team and Vic. McKenty,
Sports Editor of the Kitchener News
Record and President of the West
ern Ontario Sports Writers’ Asso
ciation.
A very sumptuous supper was
served by the evening group of the
Ladies Aid Society of St. Paul’s
Church. Rev. Dr. H. H. Turner,
minister of the church, opened the
gathering with devotional exercises
and during th supper*hour, Rev. R.
B. Cumming minister of the Salford
Circuit of the United Church, led a
sing song and played the piano ac
companiment for the singing.
Y’s Man Joe Foster who had
charge of the arrangements for the
affair, acted as chairman of the
evening and presided over a very
enjoyable program. Vocal numbers
by Master Doug. Lowe of Woodstock,
accompanied at the piano by Douglas
Harrison, also of Woodstock, made
a big hit and the half hour enter
tainment provided by Pr<sf. J. Ever
ett Mires, a magician from London,'
had the entire audience thrilled with
his sleight of hand acts and the pro
ducing of white pigeons and rabbits.
Y’s Man R®v. R. Harold Parr, min
ister of Trinity United Church, de
livered a thought inspiring talk to the
boys. He emphasized the importance
of young men entering the game of
life with a good training and declared
that the influence they* received from
sports organizations promoted by the
Y’s Men’s Club was of the greatest
value to them. He stressed the im
portance of players obeying the or
ders of their coach aiM added that
Jesus Christ was the greatest of *11
coaches and boys that followed his
direction were alway %ound to have
happiness .afid' success. He appealed
to the youth present to be’ clean in
thought, heart and action, if they
wanted to become good sports.
Y’s Man Max Poole, a past pre-
«ident of the Ingersoll Club and Dis
trict Governor «f*the clubs in this
•tone, conducted an interesting quix
program. He asked * number of
questions from' each of the guest
players present and the replies were
a real source of delight to the ban
tam and midgcl'THayern. BobbieBauer said tlo/ the greatest thrill
he got out of a crowd at a hockey
match was the time Boston won the
Stanley Cup two years ago when
the Boston fans gave EdUie Shore.*
great ovation after the Anal game
of the aeries. Bobby, who has won
the Lady Byng Trophy for the-past
two years for being selected m the
player exhibiting the greatest sports-
man-Jiip and having the least pena}-
. ties, said he got hi* first start in the
Twin Citie* Hockey League for
Tux is Boy* and Trail Rangers.
Milt Schmidt, sewing *** for the
league m IP8B-1B40, said that all
goalie* were hard to acor* on. He
started hi* hockey career at the age
of eight in the Twin Citi**. Th*

Club Guest and Told of Ex

Vice-President Lion John E. Bor
land-presided at the regular meeting
of the Ingersoll Lions Club held on
May 13th, in the St. Charles Hotel
Coffee Shop. There was a good turn
out of the club members and a num
bet of guests including Major Ben.
F. Holmes, and Herbert Schaus,
Waterloo* Deputy District Governor
of Zone Nine of the Ontario-Quebec
A-l paid his official visit to the local
club <at this meeting.
A sing-song was led by Lion Doug.
Martin with Lion Ted Sharpe at the
piano. Secretary Lion Dr. John M.
Partlo reported several matters of
business.
Past President Lion Fred Bigham
introduced his brother-in-law, Major
Ben. F. Holmes, who was one of the
first from Ingersoll to enlist in the
present war and who has been over
seas with, the First Canadian Divis
ional Signals, since December, 1939.
Major Holmes spoke briefly of his
, experiences in England, but he point
ed out that he could not make any
statements regarding his connection
with the militia while overseas. He
told of observations made among
the civilian population of the British
Isles and of what the business men
over there have to go through. He
said he met and talked with a great
many of the business men in the Old
Land as his work had brought him in
contact with them. He declared they
were determined never to give up
despite the fact many had lost every
thing and were forced to stand in
line for handouts. The civilian popu
lation stand -up $o their task of
bravely defending their homeland.
Depite the bombings they stay on
guard of the places where they arc
stationed, until the places are blown
from under them.
Some people have been bombed out
as many as three times, but they
never appeared down hearted, “They
just go around the corner and lack
up the Union Jack on whateve| may
be left for them to hang a fla* on,”
declared Major Holmes. 1
It would take many years to re
place the buildings that had been
damaged and it was his opinion that
as soon as hostilities cease, and boats
are available, there will be a great
influx of evacuees to Canada.
-He described thq ‘evacuation of
.vromefa arid children from the eitie*
to the rural district* and stated he
had witnessed the merciless machine-
gunning of children by German air
men, who swooped down on evacuees
and fired, as'many as eight guns at
a time into the group* of people. He
declared the Canadian army is in fine
shape, drilled and ready for action
whenever called upon. The moral of
the British people was high and. they
would never give up.
The chairman expressed the thank*
of the elub to Major Holmes for his
abort talk.
Deputy District Governor Schaua
addressed a few words to the Club
member*. He outlined the importance
of the various executive officer* in
the chib and rtreased'the necessity
of members co-operating with" them
and assuming a personal responsibil
ity for the welfare of the organiza

could be kept at a high level. "On

reputation and *ueceo* of the whole

WORDS OF INSPIRATION
“The ieriou»ne»« of thi> war to Canada
cannot be over-emph««ixed. It i» the duty
of everyone to lend hi* full aupport, to back
up to the limit the effort* of tho*e who are
fighting our battle.”—Premier Hepburn of
Ontario.
“Victory Loan, 1941”
A major objective in the forthcoming Victory Loan
.will be to secure as large an army of small subscrib
ers as possible.
With this in view. the Victory Loan campaign will
be virtually a house to house canvass. The necessity
of assisting the war effort by buying Victory Bonds
will be impressed on every householder and every
individual with a ,savings account.
An official prospectus of the loan and a letter from
the Minister of Fininace will be mailed to every home
in Canada. Every householder will also receive an
illustrated booklet describing Canada’s war activities
In addition, the banks and trust companies are co-op
erating by sending letters to all their depositors
urging them to buy Victor}' Bonds.
Nothing would please the War Loan and. Depart
ment of Finance officials more than to have over a
million subscribers to the coming loan. This may seem
a large number but it is possible of achievement. In
the fifth war loan of the First Great JjurlO.140,057
Canadians subscribed for $707,117,550 of bonds and
;were allotted $682,302,900 of bonds.
If every Canadian with a savings account gets
behind the 1941 loan the record of the First Great
War should be exceeded. Most recent figures avail
able show that the chartered banks have 4,845,000
depositors with an average bank account of $568.
The record of 1,140,000 subscribers established by
the fifth loan of the last war will be exceeded if 25'i
of the depositors' of the banks subscribe to the com
ing loan. In fact an average, subscription of $500
from 1,200,000 depositors, along with the large pur
chases by corporations, would result in the loan being
over-subscribed.
Potato Growing
In Canada the potato is used almost .as freely as
• bread by all classes of people. It is adapted to grow
ing in almost every section of the Dominion, extend
ing from the extreme eastern provinces, where very
large yields jjer acre are obtained, to the western
coast. Northwards the potato has progressed towards
the Arctic Circle, giving remarkable returns under
cool climatic and soil conditions wherever the season
is frost-free long enough for' the -plants to make
growth.
Canadian certified seed "potatoes are highly prized
in many countries and this circumstance has not been
brought about by chance but through the effOru of
the Dominion and Provincial Departments of Agri-
cutlure and by the growers in aiming to produce a
disease-free vegetable. The influence of climatic con
ditions on the potato crop is considerable, and while
soil is important and has not such a strong effect as
climate, it is necessary that the land used for potato
production be kept in a satsifactory state of fertility.
There are also many other requirements, such as fer
tilizers, and manures, t he best time to plant, how
to plant, and the proper amount of seed, the varieties
to be used, cultivation, ridging tillage, the protection
of the crop against disease and insects, harvesting,
digging, storing and grading. The fullest information
on all these and other » object* are contained in the
•eventy-two page bulletin entitled, “The Potato in
Canada." A copy of the bulletin may be obtained by
writing to the Dominion Department of Agriculture,
Ottawa.
The production of 'potato** in 1940 amounted to
42,300,0(A) cwt; an increase of about 6,000,000 cwt.
over the 1939 crop.
Pilot* For Britain
Information that the United States will join Can
ada in supplying fields and equipment for training
BnUah pilot* is wekome. The plan is for at (least
3,000 prospective R. A. F. fliers to come to America
for twenty weeks of flying school. This will enlarge
the great Canadian training scheme and enable fields
and forces in the British Isle* to concentrate entirely
on fighting. Trainhtg-plane production in the United
States has now heached a scale which can supply
.American abed* and probably all the ships required
for Bnu>h (raining centers. •
The United. State* i* expected to gain by this
. arrangement, not only through aiding Briudi defense,
which affords time for American rearma uent, but
through direct observation of war-tested methods.
Thio appear* to be a practical and usoful step toward
effective hrtegraUon of British-American air deten
te- A year agtcjhie newspaper advocated revision
of the Neotra’Hy AcK to permit American* to enlist
in the R A. F. without going to Canada or Hrit<>n

of such • move.

Analyses of well water in recent
years by the Provincial Laboratories
have shown that as high as 9Q. per
cent, of the wells are contaminated
in some of the villages surv-yed.-
“Pollution,” according to Dr. A.
E. Berry, Director of the Sanitaiy
Engineering Division, Ontario de
partment of Health, “is quite prev
alent. But well owners in reply say
that they and their families have
been drinking from their well* for
yean and have nyrer been attacked
by a water-borne organism. That
may be true, but their supply is pro
tected toy good luck, not by anything
they do to make it safe.”
While there is an ever-increasing
number of drilled wells throughout
the country, the mo*-t of the " well
form of supply comes from dug or
surface welL. Public health engineers
have no objection to the surface well,
providing it is not situated *o that
it ia in the seepage path of a source
of contamination. But they do insist
upon two point*, first—that th* curb
ing to a depth of lb feet be water
tight, and, second—that the top be
water- tight.
The latter pointe need no explanation. But a* to tiJHfurbing, they
have found that water-borne organ
ism* are filtered out of the water by
the time it ha* seeped through 10
feet pt soil.
As to typhoid the disease ha*
been placed almost wholly under
control in the urban centres in which
there is not only a treated water
supply, but pasteurised milk. The
"Provincial rate ha** now levelled out
and will prob*bly maintain that

Early Start Required
For Cutworm Control
In the control of cutworms, it is
important that measures be taken
to prepare for their attacks at the
very earliest part of the season.
They are Usually active and feeding
even before the first crops are in
the gorund. Bran bait has given
effective control for many years,
states Alan G. Dustan, Division of
Enotmology Science Service, Domin
ion Department of Agriculture.. The
’ bait is made up of bran, 20 pounds;
molasses, one quart; paris green, a
half pound, and water about two and
a half gallons.
The first operation in making the
bait is a thorough mixing of the dry
ingredients. The molasses is then
stirred into the water and this solu
tion added to the bran and paris
green. Only enough water to make
«.he mixture the consistency of wet
sawdust should be used. It should
not be sloppy, but in such a state
that it will crumble and slip through
the fingers easily.
Land that was infested 1n the for
mer year should be treated before
the plants are set ‘ out by sperading
the bait at the rate of from 15 to 20
pounds per acre a few nights before

Ralph Kirk; “B” Company, Wood-
stock, commanded by Capt. James
Darragh; “C" Company, Tillsonburg,
commanded by Major O. T. G. Mar
tin; and “D” .Company, Ingersoll,
commanded by Major J. C. Herbert
with the Oxford Rifles Brass Band,
with bandmaster Harold Bingeman,
leader; the Oxford Rifles Bugle Band,
under Drum Major C. Hayes, and the
Ingersoll Pipe Band, under the lead
ership of Pipe Major Alex. Collins and
over one hundred veterans of the last
Great War, paraded from the Inger
soll Armouries to Memorial Park
where the services were- held. In
cluded in the Woodstock, Tillson
burg, and Ingersoll Companies were
platoons from Plattsville, Embro,
Thamesford and Norwich.
Loud speakers carried the service
at the park to the large crowd on the
grounds and the many who were in
cars on the street surrounding the
park.
Rev. Dr. H. H. Turner, minister
of St. Paul’iTjPresibyteiian Church,
acted as cWfman and gave the open
ing invocation. Hymns sung during
the service were “0,God Our Help In
Ages Past,” “Stand Up, Stand Up,
for Jesus,” and “Onward Christian
Soldiers.” The accompaniment was
played by the Oxford Rifles Band
who also gave a band selection.
Rev. H. E, Merifield, rector of St
James' Anglican Church, led the
reading of the General Confession of
Faith and also gave the “Prayers for
the Empire.” The Scripture lesson
was read by Rev. F. A. Facey, assist
ant minister of trinity United
Church, and the address of the after
noon was delivered by Rev. R. Har
old Parr, minister of Trinity United
Church, who is a veteran of the^ast
war. Rev. Mr. Parr’s subject was,
“Our Empire Challenge.” He said
we should be proud that we bel6nged
to the British Empire and as citizens
of the Empire we should be proud of'
the people of the Old L&nd who
showed such great courage despite
the. fact a great many had been
Bombed otit of their, homes and had
lost everything.
He urged is hearers to reaffi,rm
their faith in God and to believe in
the Sovereign Power of God. He
asked all to believe in prayer and
pointed out that the direct power of
prayer had been seen on two occas
ions already in this war. After the
first National Day of Prayer ordered
by the King, the, British had evacu
ated between 35,000 and ^10,000 men
from Dunkirk when it was believed
all would be captured or killed. The
night of the evacuation the rough
waters of the English Channel were
calm and when the German bomber*
tried to attack the evacuating ships
a heavy tog came up and protected
the reMue operations. Ths great
naval battle in the Mediterranean fol
lowed the second National Day of
Prayer. On thia occasion seven Ital
ian ships^were-destroyed by t?u Brit
ish Navy without any loss to itself
thus crippling the might of the Italian
Navy and-helping Britain to take men
and supplies to the far east without
aa much danger from attack.'
Rev. Mr. Farr referred to the
word* of Winston Churchill, “we
mean to conquer or die,” and reiter
ated the challenge to the people of
the Empire to help out in every pos
sible way in order to preserve dem
ocracy. Britain’s fight was a great
crusade against paganlaptTand if we
toil life will indeed become a bur
den. Rev. Mr. Peer declared “There
is no price too great to pay for this
glorious heritage which ia ours, our
belief in God and our willingneJr’to

said he liked to play best in the
Chicago Rink, and next to that at
Detroit.
Lloyd Gross of Kitchener, who
almost holds a world record for the
number of professional hockey teams
he has played with since starting with
Toronto in 1926, said he had played
with fifteen different teams in 14
years.
The players were given a big hand
as they rose to reply to the questions
asked by Max, particularly Red
Horner, former star defence man for
the Toronto Maple Leafs. Red recall
ed that he started Jus career as a
hockey player in Toronto. The lar
gest crowd he ever played before was
at Chicago in 1939. His biggest thrill
was when he was selected as a reg
ular on the Mariboio junior team at
Are age of 17, by Frank Selke, now
business manager of the Leafs. He
turned pro at the age of 19, and
when he was asked by one of the
.boys present, “Who did you have the
worst fight with?” he replied hum
orously, “See me afterwards for this
information.”
Both .Bobby Bauer and Red Hor
ner spoke briefly and related a nurn-
ber of their experiences as players
on Stanley Cup "Teams. B^bby said
that Boston got the breaks against
Toronto this year in the playoffs and
for that reason emerged the winners.
He said the Leafs were a good team
and so were we.
Red Horner explained that des
pite the fact that he had the record
for the most penalties in the league
for several seasons, the skirmishes
and flare-ups were always forgotten
after the game. Players forget their
differences knd the grudges are only
more or less of a dramatic —nature
while the play lasts. He paid tribute
tv the playing of the boys from Kit
chener and Waterloo* and declared
the Kraut line rates up well with the
greatest forward lines that ever
played in the National League. They
were mainly responsible he said for
carrying Boston to the World Cham
pionship this year. He urged the
young boys, to keep on playing and
if they ever had ffie desire to gtt in
the National League the only way
to do it was to play hockey and play
it well with the thought in mind of
eventually reaching their goal.
An autographed baseball sent toIngersoll by Le/IpJudd of the Bos
ton Red -Sox. that was autographed
bj. both himself and Lefty Grove,
was further autographed by . the
the hockey stars prerent. A df«w
for this was made by ER*yd Gross
and the winner waa Bill Clark. Three
autographed hockey sticks were also
drawn for. Porky Du mart picked the
name of Kenneth Connor; Milt
Schmidt, drew the name of Ron.
Grotfm and Bobbie Bauer selected
John Muir's name.

THE FORTHCOMINGVICTORY LOAN(Recognizing the value of the dollars of people of modest means, Finance Minister J. L. Haley, when mak
ing his announcement of the forth
coming Victory Loan to raise $600,-
000,900 to meet current war expendi
tures, stressed the fact that the
bonds will be sold on an installment
plan so that incomes in the lower
'brackets may be channelled to pur
chase Victory Bonds.
“These arrangements will enable
every Canadian to give the greatest
possible support to the loan, Mr.
-IIsley, said.
The bonds offered in fopr denom
inations of fifty dollars, one hundred
.dollars, five hundred dollars and one
thousand dollars, will be available
with payments spread over a six-
month. period, the Finance Minister
pointed out. Details as to the oper
ations of this plan would be announ?
ced lat^r, as would the interest rate
and the term of the loan.
The new loan will be the third and
largest war loan in Canada since hos
tilities opened.
Subscription books will be opened
on June 2.
When announcing the Victory
Loan in the House of Commons, Mr.
llsley said: ’’Canada will ask her cit
izens for $600,000,600 in the forth
coming'Victory Loan with the full
hope and expectation that subscript
ions from coast-to-coast will be con
siderably in excess of that amount.
“To provide for such response and
to insure that all Canadians may be
given an opportunity to take part in
this important phase of our war
work, the Minister of Finance wi’Jj
reserve the right to accept all or any
part of the over-subscription. The
degree of co-operation which has
been offered by people everywhere in
Canada gives every ground for con
fidence.
“The bonds of this Victory Loan
will be available in denominations of
$50, $100, $500, $1,000 and may be
purchased outright or upon easy
terms of payment The installment
plan which has been worked out will
enable any purchaser to pay for.
bonds over a period of six months. |
These arrangements will enable
every Canadian to give the greatest
possible support to this plan.
“In November of this year there
will mature an issue of $140,000,000,
Dominion of Canada, 5% bonds;
holders of these bonds will be given
the privilege of turning them jn, at
an attractive price, in exchange for
bonds of the Victory Loan, 1941.
“The success of a war loan is not
measured merely fby reaching or pass
ing an objective; jt Is measured also
in the number of individual subscrib
ers. If, as is fully expected, large
numbers of Canadians in all walks
of life buy Victory Bonds it will
speak the will and the,determination
of this nation emphatically.
“The/dellfrs of -'the man arid wo
man of modest means are just as im
portant in this war as those of the
wealthier individual or of the large
corporation, We believe that Canad
ians jrenerqjly will rally to this loan
in a manner that will help our own
defense give heart to our allies and
raise the’ a&niration and consolidate
the support %f our friends across the
border.”
“Cheer up," said the doctor, “I’ve
had exactly the same complaint my
self.”
“Yea,” replied the patient, doubt
fully, **but you didn't have the Mme
doctor!”

Elise emerged, coo) in pastel chiffons, under a huge hat. Her dark,rather heavy eyes were veiled as
they rested on him. They madehim vaguely uncomfortable. Thiswas his frequent reaction to Elise
these days.He wished ridiculously thit hecould take a running jump into his
car and be off, waving his hat ashe went- Instead, he found himselftelling her how charming shelooked, and how even midsummerbecame her.She laid her hand on his arm. and"
looked up at him reproachfully."Don’t go conventional, darling,”
she said. Mark decided he wouldnever get used to "darling" as thecurrent output in salutations; "I’m

you? And I truly must Will youdrive me home? OK Harmon, just
lake the car back. I shan’t be need-fog it again until tonight.”Mark almost put out a protesting
hand, as the man touched his capand drove off, Elise was movingflowingly toward his roadster, and
there wa* nothing to do but followher."I don’t think you’ll be very
’happy,” he said opening the door.“Picture hats and chiffon* don’tmix specially well with roadsters.”
She tucked her flowing skirtsaround her and leaned back with a
wistful sigh: “But I adore roadsters.And you have the top up, so Ishan’t be too terribly windblown.Doift stand there staring at me,silly. Aren't you getting in?”Mark brought his thought* backwith an effort "I just remembered

Mark nodded. He didn’t in theleast know.
She hurried on without waiting'for an answer. "You- see, I can’tbeg, lure, or even abduct you to myapartment I can’t think what you’reafraid of—""Perhaps It isn’t exactly fear,** heexplained. “Maybe I'm catering a
trifle to the tongues of men—to saynothing of women. Silly rot, I know.
And evert if one doesn't go in forstereotyped mourning, it does curtail social activities a. bit"
“You're just talking off the top ofyour mind,” said Elise sadly. “Keeping me on the outside. Just as if
we hadn’t been friejjds for ages. Itisn’t fair—wheq.^ miss Ellen soanyway—*
Mark was horrified, after thefashion of men, to sec her, loose one
hand from the still struggling hatand wipe her eyes on a gay bit ofchiffon.
“I—I’m frightfully sorry. I’mprobably a clumsy brute—’’ He laidhis hand over hers on the big hat
and held it closely.-Elise looked up? at him from un
dampened lashes. She even smiledplaintively.“No, darling," she sighed. “It’s
just that you don’t always think. Ofcourse, I know you can’t go dashingaround to parties. Amusing your
self like that But surely nobodycould criticize you for coming to seemel As a matter of fact; it’s criti
cism that made me hunt you up. It’sterribly hard to tell you. You areso-so sort of sweet, Mark. But

tion of his wrist watcK He.was appalled to find only half an hour *.idpassed since Ehse met him. Itseemed to him that he had been shutup here with her for weeks."I’m afraid I don't understand.^
he told her. “I suppose it’s stupidof me. Do you mean somebody weknow if- talking about somebody?

“They’re talking about you, darling, of course. Did you imagine you

only for wilerie. I'm just a littleafraid nobody is bothering a greatdeal about Miss Speedwell—"
Mark turned on her like a manwho has suddenly, had enough. “Thename is Tredway," he said. THtre
was somethingjn the way he said itthat made Ehse jump.
“Of course it is, darlingl Youknow what an imbecile I am aboutnames! The point is, well—sheshe doesn’t seem to be so terriblypopular with the few people who
have met her.”
“I wonder if it keeps her awakenights. She's popular with Valerie,
and after all, that’s what she’s at.Wide Acre* for. The child has been
made over new since Lucy came. Ihardly know her. And that makesher popular with me. Lucy, I mean.
Damned popular, if you want toknow!”Elise grew suddenly cold. “But,
of course, if you’re in love with her,darling—"
The words were hardly cold before she knew what a fatal mistakethey were. She gathered up her
courage and lookeoat him. His facewas far from reassuring. ’"Why do you women, always ima
gine *a man must be in love?” heasked. “Anyway, count me out.Absolutely."
Elise tried not to read anythingmore into it than just the bare
words. But his emphasis on “absolutely” was a bit terrifying. Shelocked out and saw with .astonish
ment that they had entered thetown, and were even now stoppingbefore her apartment house.Mark got out at once, and openedthe door. Her big hat drooping at

The financial report of the tag dag
held in April to raise money for the
milk fund was read by Mrs. Ted
Fleischer and showed that the sum
raised was an increase over that of
last year. The members appreciate
the generous support of the citizens
of Ingersoll with financial.Contribu
tions in enabling them to carry on
this work. The thanks of the chapter
go out to the Girl Guides who so
ably assisted in tagging and to Mr.
Christie who so kindly loaned his
store as headquarters for the day.
It was decided to place several
copies of Dr. Charlotte Whitton’s
publication, “God’s Good Tide,’’ in
the Ingersoll schools.
Mrs. R. G. Start gave the topic,
a political study of Iraq, so much
in the world news today. This was
thoroughly enjoyed.

PREMIER KING and LONDON
VISIT
Though it appears that Premier
Mackenzie King has so far found no
need to pay a visit to London, nor
has any request betn made by the
Motherland for his presence up to
this stage of the war, yet along
Parliament Hill it has become known
' that if such a requqpt is made by tHe
Prime Minister, of Britain, Premier
King would go in' answer to such ,a,
summons, with some sources claim
ing that this is not improbable dur
ing the period of recess of the Can
adian Parliament However, it is
ppinted out that this, will not mean
the creation of an Imperial War
Cabinet since both Prime Minister
Winston ’Churchill and Premier Mac
kenzie King are said to be opposed
to any such innovation.
MOMENTOUS NEWS AFTER
SESSION CLOSES
There are signs in the capital of
an early conclusion of the present
gathering but at the same time there
are extremely important develop
ments which indicate to any veteran
observer that vital and history-mak
ing news will -be forthcoming in the
period which will follow. Parliament
will only adjourn, with the provision
that if apy emergency should arise
it shall be summoned back on very
short notice from the. speaker. In
fact, the Government would like to
wind up early so that sessional de
bates can be put aside for the more
important tasks ahead in connection
with delicate war matters.
QUEBEC’S VIEW PROCLAIMED
Notwithstanding any occasional
isolated view to the contrary, ex
pressed in the House of Commons,
Quebec is in the fight behind the
Motherland until victory* has been.
assured. This is the proclamation
issued in Parliament by Rt. Hon.
Ernest Lapointe, Minister of Justice,
in answer: to the wide publicity given
to imposing views. “It is Herr Hit
ler,” said Mr Lapointe dramatically,
“who has brutally and- barbarously
answered the argument of my hon
ourable friend,” referring to an op
posite view expressed by Maxime
Raymond, Liberal M.P. for Beauhar-
nois-Laprarie. Mr. Lapointe answered

will maintain the unity of purpose
and spirit of harmony with the rest
of Canada in this war where civiliz-
*ation is at stake and no one has a
right to be neutral.
"sTARK REALITIES IF THE
PARLIAMENTARY SESSION
In view of the glaring light which
has been thrown upqn casuistic crit
icisms of the Government’s war
effort or activities and upon the
latest development* in Ottawa, it
would be total blindness not to re
port at this time that the strain of
this war effort has reached the stage
where it is going to be so great soon
that the costs of war are certain to
cut deeply and sharply into the lives
of every man, woman and child in
Canada in a manner and to an ex
tent obviously beyond common calcu
lation Ur foresight, though the head
lines from Parliament Hill do not
emphasize this full and candid ap
praisal.
This may be imperceptible to tho
man-in-the-street at the present time
because the war has brought a boom
to trade, commerce and industry
throughout Canada and it has provid
ed jobs for thousands and thousands
of Canadians, with a record-breaking
national income for 1941 estimated
now to be about $5,544,200,000. But
soon the man-in-the street in Can
ada is going to feel the pinch far
more severely and with less salubri
ous effects upon the 'standard of liv
ing to which the average Canadian
has been accustomed up to this stage
of our history._^/MTdeed, it must be
stated that along Parhamenut Hill it
is pointed out that Canada plans to
raise $1,500,000,000 in 1941 through
taxation and this means that it will
take away over 24 cents out of
every dollar earned by Canadians in
1941. Then again, it is indicated that
$1,150,000,000 must be financed by
Canada through loans or by other
methods and this means another 20
cents will be taken away from the
pockets of the taxpayers of. Can
ada in 1941. Moreover, on the basis
of last year's high expenditures by i
provinces and municipalities, these
authorities will take away in 1941 at
least another 10 cents of every dol
lar. Consequently, more than 54
cents out of every dollar, earned by '
Canadians in 1941 will be gone be
fore the fiscal year is completed. ,
But this is not the end. Ever since
the start of this war, every budget
and every estimation of possibkyex-
penditure has been exceeded by the
Government. On September 12, 1939,
the Hoti. J. Lr Illsley brought down
the first war budget, asking the tax
payers for $100,000,000 to run the
war effort until March 30, 1940, but
the Government actually spent
$118,000,000 in that time. On June
24, 1940, Hon. Ralston asked the
taxpapers for $700,000,000 as war
costs until March 30, 1941, but theGovernment actually spent during
that period over $835,000,000. Now,
the request is for $2,650,000,000,
being- made up of. $1,500,600,000
from taxation and $1,150,000,000
from borrowing or other methods, in
other words, even this staggering
und amazing expenditure is likely to
be exceeded in 1941 because the
qosU and needs are certain to be be
yond present estimation or foresight,
especially because a new and proper
factor has entered the picture, though
the num-in-the-rtreet does not seem
to appreciate Its meaning or signi
ficance.
In addition to raising >1,500,000,-
000 for ite own governmental pur
poses in carrying on during the next
year v of war, Canada must finance
Britain to the big extent of $1,150,-
000,000 in 1941. Last year Canada
provided about $400,000,000 for
Britain’s credit by buying Canadian
securities held in Britain, but thia

$508,800,boo. These figures speak forthemselves and they tell a story of aterrific' fluctuation of fortune forthe honest, hard-working and patient
farmed of Canada during the past
few years, with the remark that
some remedy must be found sooner
or later in order to provide an in
creased, a stabilized and a more rea
sonable income for the fanner out of
the estimated nationpl income of
this nation, especially when agricul
ture is a war casualty, with respon
sibilities which are not equilibrated
by benefits or extra incomes distri
buted by war activities in other un
dertaking throughout this young
nation.
These facts must be faced by the
taxpayers of Canada and within
these stark facts lie hints of the
prospects of fresh actions from the
Government in Ottawa. Indeed, a
strictly impartial and experienced
observer must add that parliamentary
leaders of all political parties have
shown an unusual inclination to spare
no money in a maximum effort to
win the war because all political
leaders, agree on one point and that
is that winning the war is more im
portant than playing politics. There
have been criticism^ of ‘the Govern
ment’s policies for raising money in
this war. Objections have been made
to the fact that $433,000,000 will be
used in 1941 for the civil govem-
much at this time. There Eave beenment, claiming that it is far toostinging remarks about the budgetary disclosure that the Canadian
National Railways have a deficit of
$16,000,000 in a year when opera
tions are at their peak or (that the
Montreal terminal project is being
carried on at a cost of over $25,000,-
000, a substantial portion of which
must be paid in American funds.
There have been some harsh ques
tions by representatives of irate tax
payers. When there is an official re
quest to lower the standard of living
of the common man, why does the
Government not set an example by
cutting down unnecessary expendi
tures for the duration of the wart
Is not the 20 per cent tax on movies
in small localities without war in
dustries or new incomes too much?
Why was no increased imposition
made on liquor or alcoholic drinks?
Why was the national defence tax
made primarily to catch the “little
man" in the lower income brackets?
Why. are Western farmers called up
on to sacrifice to a greater extent
than the rest of Canada? When next
year 300,000 skilled technical work
ers will be needed, why are only
50,000 being trained by the Govern
ment? Why should there not be a
greater equality of sacrifice in the
financial policies so that corporations
only suffer slightly reduced profits

These are typical criticisms, but on
the whole the Government’s huge
spending programme has not actuated
any of the expected political fury be
cause the political leaders of all
parties realize that much more is at
stake in this war than political car
eers or monetary fortunes and there
is no doubt about it along Parliament

This is a war for existence. It is war to the death. It is a war to win or to lose.
There can be no half way—no compromise. It is a war to WIN.
Money is the fourth arm of the service.
Whatever you are called on to pay or to lend, it is little compared to the lives
that our sons offer.
There have been many and heavy calls upon Canada already.
There will be more.
Let us face the truth and the truth will maite us free. '
It is freedom we are fighting for, British freedom, the freedom of body and
spirit that makes life worth living.
4f wc fail, we fall.
* Be prepared for sacrifice.
Great Britain has set us an example on a scale of heroic magnificence history
doesn’t record.
Let ns FIGHT!
*. Canada has the’ resources. Let us spire nothing, When our soldiers offer their
lives, let us be willing to share our livelihood. /* <
Presently the Government of Canada Will call for money.
r The money is tyre.
We are spending billions. We are already heavily taxed. But most of these
billions and those taxes are being spent in Canada. That money comes back to
V- you. Keep it,.rolling. Keep putting it b«ck into the’war effort, so that it may be
spent again and again and again until Right prevails and the world is free.
