Ingersoll Again Over The Top in Victory Loan Ingersoll citizens have again gone over the top in a Victory Loan Drive. In the campaign just closed, the local sales were up to Wednesday of this week, $539,400 or 105.08% of the quota of $510,000, set for the town. The people of Ingersoll are justly proud of their showing in every pre­ vious loan and are still able to keep the Victory Flags coming to the town. Every factory raised 100% ormore of their objecti^in the payroll ‘plan and the general canvass went well ovqr their quota. The special names amount for Ingersoll is not in­ cluded in the above amount. * Ingersoll Publ EMPIRE D A Y< 9 Schools- Ic o n c e r t SCHOOL CHOIR ]200 VOICES ' Folk Dancing - Singing QI:mea - Rhythm Banda Crowning of tig May Queen Over 400 Bhildrt Taking Part f r id a w £AY 19th THAYER’M RE NA, 8 p.m. Adnrfaakm . •25c Organ On Tuesday. ling basuty snd merit was pre- <1 Frederic Tristram Egener, F.CC.M., organist of * Cre-nyn Memorial Church, London, r on Tuesday, at the St. James’ Angli­ can Church. He was assisted in the program by the choirs Of the church, | who ’ed in processional and reees- rional hymns, and Miss Margaret ’ Blake, contralto, of London. Mr. . Egener was overseer for the instal- , lation of the new Hillgreen Lane > organ and many old friends were ’ glad to renew his acquaintance, he having been organist and choir leader of St. James’ from 1914 to I 1916. The opening numbers of the pro­ gramme were of the cumbersome variety, when Suite Gothique by . Boehmann with four parts. Choral, Menuet, Priere a Notre Dame and Toccata brought out some of the deeper quality of the organ. This was followed by Choral-Vorspiel, by J. S. Bach, where the lovely strains of “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring,” were woven through a wealth of mel­ odious background. The second part of this group was “Toccata and Fugue in D Minor," by Bach, tonal qualities of the organ were emphasized in this number as the Fugue was played with its restless rolling until the course reached the interrupted cadence that preceded the coda which brought the selection to a close. The paying of the number, “The Bells of Aberdovy”, opening with the chimes and wearing the melody of a well-known hymn, into a sort of Fan­ tasy brought about, a gripping sensa­ tion of control on the part of the organist. This number by J. H. Stew­ art, was of outstanding beauty. The rendition of “Finlandia," by Jean Sibelius, gave the large congre­ gation of music lovers a real thrill as the deep pedal tones were brought into-play and then the finale with the familiar air that has proved so in­ spirational since the present war. As the programme progressed, the playing and the qualities of the organ became more evident. In a group of his own compositions, Mr, Egener produced some stirring reactions in (a) “Drifting Boat and Evening Chimes"; (b) “Among the Pines”, and (c) “Cascade.” As the titles suggest, so the music was inter­ preted. The chimes, the sighing of the pines and the trickling cascade, (Continued on page 4) Miss Anne Hutson Bride of Gnr. C. E. Wright St. James’ Anglican Church was the scene of a pretty May wedding on Saturday afternoon, May 13th, when Anne Hutson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Hutson, of Inger­ soll, was united in marriage to Gunner Claude E.

Miss Eleanor Wright sister of the groom, was the bridesmaid, and was gowned in floor-length pastel pink sheer with a shoulder-length veil and* carried roses and snapdragon. Pte. Donald C. Hutaon, brother of the bride, was best man and the ushers were Mr. Ernest Wright uncle of the groom, and Mr. Bert Hutaon, brother of the bride.

Civic Welfare Was Discussed By Clubs The meeting of the Kiwanis Club last Thursday evening at the St. Charles Coffee Shop, took the form of a round-table conference when mat­ ters were discussed as to the advi- ability of the three local service clubs forming a joint committee to promote civic welfare. a L. A. Westcott explained the pur­ pose of the meeting, which was called on behalf of the other service' clubs to consider the question of forming a joint service club commit­ tee' for creating a civic pride and interest within the municipality. It was explained by Mr. Westcott that any activity taken on by such a committee should disassociate itself as a Kiwanis, Lions or Y’smen’s ob­ jective, but rather should have the influence of a purely citizenship organization, as it was felt tjiit anything which might be proposed should be representative of this body. Many members took part in the discussion and offered suggestions along the line of proposal for a re­ vival of a chamber of commerce, ratepayers’ association or citizens’ forum. At the same time many sug­ gestions .were offered by individual speakers for numerous improvements which might be made within the muniqjpality. Some suggested were: Rehabilitation on the return of local men overseas; question of a definite plan for complete sewage system and assembly building so badly needed; a new Collegiate Institute and a live-stock sales yard; better park facilities and a new hospital. , Last but not least was the question* of adequate hotel accommodation in the town.

As a general rule the movement of agricultural workers to employment outside of agriculture must be dis­ couraged except where the new em­ ployment is to be in one of the fol­ lowing primary Industries: lumber­ ing and logging, forestry, fishing, trapping and mining. Selective Service points out that every effort should be made to fur­ ther the policy of retaining agricul­ tural workers in agricultural employ­ ment and seasonal employment In the primary industries named. In Districts where there is no em­ ployment available in certain speci- i fied primary industries, a permit lim­ ited in duration may be granted to “a person employed in agriculture” enabling him to take war work dur­ ing the winter months when his services are not required on the farm, but only rarely should permits be granted unlimited as to time. When issuing a permit to a fanner to take temporary employment out­ side of agriculture, he should clearly understand that the permit is limited in time and that he is expected to return to agricultural employment immediately after the time stated on . the permit. i A person employed in agriculture ! does not require a permit to accept ' seasonal or temporary employment , outside'an urban municipality for not ' more than 60 days in any year when ! such employment does not interfere : with agricultural production. ‘ FLORIDA VALENCIA LARGE Juice ORANGES 45« THE FAMOUS BLACK DIAMOND BRAND FLORIDA Seedless Grapefruit A Selection of At Leact 3 Size* To Chooae FromAttractively Priced.

Any farm household in Canada, engaging seasonal help for such work as threshing, silo filling, wood­ cutting. and other work, will be able to make application for extra rations for these crews up to a limit of five meals for each member of the crews, if five meals are being served each day. This rule was in effect in 1943 but only in a comparatively small number of cases was it utilised to the limit. Application forms for the extra rations will bear a statement this year to the effect that rations may be applied for up to five meals a day per person, if required. Officials of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board believe that this extra allowance will enable farm homes to meet their needs for most rationed foods for the extra gangs. Xo further concessions can, however, be made for sugar. Soisw ;>f the interesting historicaltmb for the month of May aregtvwn herewith Monday, May 1.Balli* of Manilla Bay. 1898; Tues-.lay, May 2.

TWO PREVIOUS REJECTIONS In regard to the story that the Government of Alberta has caused a petition to be sent to Ottawa as a request for a private bill to be en­ acted for the incorporation of a province owned bank, it must be pointed out that a somewhat similar move was made on two previous ocflRIonsin the past, including one in 1940 and another in 1941. How­ ever, with banking being under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal Government'by the constitution, on on both occasions the Banking Com­ mittee had rejected these requests on the ground of the “subject mat­ ter” involved, with these rejections having been strongly influenced by the decisions of the Department of Justice that such an act would not be in strict accord with constitutional law. Then again, it must be pointed out that since the rules of the House of Commons require that all such petitions must be furnished within the first six weeks of the season and this petition was filedlate due to the death of Premier Aberhart, the Alberta Government is subject to the payment of a penalty.

TIMELY TRIBUTE When the member of Parliament for Nanaimo, British Columbia, Captain Alan Chambers rose to speak his speech was interrupted on several occasions by tremendous ovations of loud applause and desk thumping because this member had returned to the House of Commons after serving on the batlelields of Sicily «nd Italy and his speech seemed to meet withthe approval of a’great man^k mem­ bers. He said in part that the men overseas wanted the Government to see that another such war would not happen, that there were remarlwble examples of comradeship and co-op­ eration In the field between various races and that proper tribute should be paid to the “little people of Uarf- ada” who have contributed regularly fabulous sums to war loans..

The fire­light shining on her hair turned itto a reddy gold as she folded upthe letter and put it back into theenvelope.“Who's your other letter from?”asked Dr. Warner."Oh. one of those scrubby, yel­lowy Government things. Like In­come Tax. Pretty soon I shan'thave any money left,” said Mrs.Maturin childishly. “I shall have tokeep a hotel or something. Thishouse would do beautifully for ahotel." She tore open the envelope. "Oh! No!" she gasped out thewords, staring at him like a fright­ened child. "Listen." ’Madam — On Investigation wefind that Pole Star House has ac­commodation for twelve evacueeswith their parents, four sharing aroom. Plans are not yet maturedfor evacuation on a large scale toBattle Point, but please hold your­self ready. No appeal is possibleagainst a decision by your localcouncil but if you have dependentrelatives who may wish to availthemselves of your accommodationkindly state your case at the above "I can’t have evacuees here;Grace would leave.” Mrs. Maturinsat down hurriedly. "Oh. here is "Yes, wait; we'll talk it over aft­erward. Well. Grace, and how areyou today?""Very well, thank you, sir." Aft­er laying the tea she went outagain. She had drawn a low tableup close to the fire, and it was cozy and delightful, thought Dr.Varner, stretching out hjs longlegs. ‘Yes, but what am I to do?"Mrs. Maturin suddenly felt per­plexed and cross. "Mrs. Mills hadrefugees at the Mill House, and theybehaved exactly like savages.”Dr. Varner laughed. "If youdon't want to take evacuees you'll<iiave to fill the house with depend­ent relatives, and as you haven'tany but Sholto, that won’t be easy.""I reaUy cannot face taking inevacuees.”• "No, I see that And honestly Idon’t think you are fit to cope with them But you will have to dosomething and do it quickly. Thepoint is what’""What I do depends so enormous­ly on Grace.""Naturally. But you knew theGovernment won’t care a rap aboutGrace. They’ll simply say youhave accommodation for so manypeople and proceed to provide youwith them.""Oh, I know you think Tm dis­gusting,” said Mrs. Maturin explo­sively. ’’find I know I am. But it'sso heavenly as it is; this house,and a lovely fire and you coming in.and Sholto's letters. And then theidea of filling it all up with revolt­ing people, and Grace leaving andnot being able to get anyone to dothe work and all the bother aboutfeeding them. And if they pay evenonly a little they will fuss; peoplealways do. I just feel as if I couldn'tstand it,” said Mrs. Maturin. andher blue eyes filled with tears. "Come here." Dr. Warner spokequietly as he held out one hand. With a little rush Mrs. Maturinwas on her knees at his chair. Shecaught hold of his hand and held itto her face. "Listen to me." hesaid. "I have a plan. And I wantto explain it to you.”While Dr. Warner and Mrs. Ma­ ture talked in the drawing room.Grace sat in the kitchen having hertea and feeling miserable. Some­thing was on foot. She could tell itfrom her mistress' expression. Alot of dirty evacuarces. that's whatit was. "I won't stay." mutteredGrace. "Not even for the mistress1 won’t stay and clear up after alot of dirty monkeys."But the bother was that Graceknew she would stay, and was sit­ting there wondering how she wouldbe able to bear it. Months andmonths of it, perhaps years—be­cause no one knew how long thiswar would last. Her glance strayedover her beloved kitchen and shethought how everything waschanged for the worse, just becausea dirty little paperhanger hadn’tbeen choked when he was bom orsomeone hadn't crammed his headinto his pail of whitewash whenthey could have done.That was how Mrs. Maturin foundher; sitting there, just staring intothe fire. Mrs. Maturin’s face wasflushed because she had just saidgoodby to Dr. Warner."Tell me why you look so mis­erable." Mrs. Maturin had a soft,quick way of speaking. "Come intothe drawing room and tell me. Ihave something to consult youabout.”"I know what it is. It's aboutevacarees. I can’t stay if you haveevacarees. At least I can. but it’llbreak my heart,” wailed Grace. “Grace, dear, listen.” Mrs. Ma­turin was trying not to laugh. “Itisn't evacuees. Come along, youdarling old thing, and I’ll tell you.” “Now than, Grace,” she began,while Grace listened with her niceold face intent. “What do youthink?" Matutin asked finally."Well, mum." Grace lifted trust­ing eyes, "whatever you say, mum. that’s what I feel about it If itwas evacarees I couldn’t have stayed."“Oh, Grace!” Mrs. Maturin satforward. “I was so afraid that you would say you must go. Dr. War­ner thinks that we could take four paying guests.”And then in front of the brightlittle fire they began to talk, while overhead a flight of ducks wingedits way to a nqprby lake. Theducks ra th e r contemptuously changeH their course as a Sunder­land flying boat roared up from an airdrome hidden among trees androcks and camouflaged sheds. "Never have so many owed somuch to so few.” The immortalwords leapt into Mrs. Maturin'! mind as she heard the roar above. And as she and Grace talked. John Wynter switched round in hisoffice chair and ground with fa--tigue. Below his window tho Lon­don traffic roared and squealed.Overhead the guns crashed and bel­lowed. Hell let loose! Should he order his staff below? He pressedthe. bell on his desk"Yes. Mr Wynter" It was histypist, neat as a new pin. Lipsmade up to a turn and the curlson her neck neatly set.•What about a descent to thedepths?"“I should prefer to finish my let­ters if you don’t mind. Mr. Wynter.I want to go to a dance tonight,and I don't like to waste any time.” “Just as you like.” What righthad he to feel tired? thought JohnWynter when he was alone again.Fearless and undaunted, theseyoung people were too marvelousfor words. He felt suddenly re­freshed and alertThe next morning Mrs. Maunnhurried off to consult her friendNetta Jackson on the proposedplans."Why have you come so early?"asked Netta. **I could tell by yourvoice on the phone that you werebursting with something.” "WeH. it’s this. To begin with Ican tell you that Grace agrees; Iknow you'll ask me that first AlsoDr. Warner.”Then proceed.” Netta’s cleverface was attentive. “I see." shesaid as Joan finished. “And 1 thinkthe idea is excellent But bow »— you going to make your hotel knownto the sort of people you want to col­lect ?""What would you suggest?”“Just this.” Netta picked up acopy of The Times-from a chairand ran her finger down a back­page column. “On the coast ofCornwall, far from military objec­tives, a small private hotel has ac­commodation for four visitors.Terms, five guineas a week.” Nettaput down the paper.“As much as that?”“You can always reduce it andthere are loads of people who canafford five guineas a week, espe­cially now that the Government hasdeclared a moratorium for evacuated areas. Let’s get busy aboutthe advertisement." After a mo­ment or two she lifted her closr-cropped head. “Listen.” she said“How do you like this? On the NorDevon coast, far from military vjectlves, a small private hotel citake four visitors. Excellent go.links and gas fires. Hot and co!water in all bedrooms. Terms, fiviguineas a week.”"I like it,” said Joan, reflecting,"but I feel quite sick with terror."she said simply. "Oh, don't be feeble. Joan," saidNetta bracingly. “Get a grip!You’re far too spoiled. This is war,and you must take your share of it.I would, only I literally can’t writewith bombs falling, and I must writeto live. Now, if you approve 01this, I’ll type it out and we’ll g<.and get a postal order. With luck iiwill be in London tomorrow and inThe Times the next day, and thei.you’ll begin to have answers.”The two friends started down tn*steep path that led from Netta scottage to the main road. Soon theletter was mailed and they wentthrough the gate that took them upthe rough path to Pole Star House. "It was a preposterous place tobuild a home." said Joan, staringat the back of it Gray and strag­gly. as if built without plan, butinside warm and snug. "Yes, but it’s got a divine view."Four bedrooms all facing the sea.except one that faces the light­house. All the rooms were nice,thought Netta, making a tour ofthem. Everything dusted and s<it should be. Pretty brocade curtains lined with dark green for the blackout. As the landlady of No. 7 Prince’sTerrace came down the stairs shesaw that Monsieur Victor bad nottaken in his morning paper, so shetapped at the door. "Here Is yourpaper, sir." Mrs. Payne spoke veryquietly, as she always did to Mon­seer, as her husband called himFor it was so awful to see a gentlepian just doing nothing but staringinto an unlighted gas fire..

Lapiey. The Young Ladies' The matter of Ingersoll schools having public holidays, was taken up by the Tribune with Secretary J. J. McLeod, following a London report to the effect that Victoria Day is definitely a holiday this year. In consulting the revised regulations, it was found that schools in Ontario are to close on all public holidays, and Thanksgiving Day. It was sug­ gested by the Minister that while Re­ membrance Day, Victoria Day and the King's birthday are not statu­ tory holidays, that they be appro­ priately observed by suitable exer­ cises in the schools. The above is therefore the ruling for 1944 and unless the Municipal Council proclaims certain days as civic or public holidays the schools will operate as regular school days. The usual Easter, Summer and Christmas holidays are provided for in the regulations and the opening of the fall term left entirely to the dis­ cretion of the Board of Education. It is specifically pointed out that the board may make arrange­ ments for pupils who desire to assist in farm work, to remain at work and have special tuition to assist in catching up with their studies.

Irah'day, as always, the ‘Salada’BBl label is your guarantee of auniform blend of fine duality teas.s^jada Shortage of waste paper may jeopardize Canada's whole war effort. Major General L. R. LaFleche, Min­ ister of National War Services, de­ clares in announcing a nation-wide 1 paper salvage drive from Ottawa. He appealed to smaller municipali­ ties to organize their collections of vital materials such as paperboard and pointed out that in many areas trucking concerns had agreed to arrange the pkkmg-up of the ma­ terial. “The situation is serious.” de­ clared the Minister emphatically. “Our mills are operating ftom hand to mouth. They require 20,000 tons of waste paper—not just for one month, but for every month. The time was, and not so very, long ago, when a paper box was merely a con­ tainer designed to convey its con­ tents to their destination without scuff or breakage. “Today, paper containers have gone to war. In addition to their hun­ dreds of other uses for military and civilian purposes they have been designed for the following uses: To be thrown? overboard for landing operations; floating to shore or sink­ ing to the bottom to be recovered at low tide; to provide protection for medical kits, blood plasma, emer­ gency rations, gas masks and for hundreds of other uses.” He pointed out paper parachutes strong enough to convey food and supplies for isolated men and units are now in use; treated paper elec­ trical conduits are replacing men and wood; shells, grenades, fuses, etc., are carried in paper containers. They are also used for dehydrated foods, saving cargo space; for canisters used in transporting powder, shells, air­plane prope'llors, bombs. One of the chief difficulties, he declared, whs caused by the fact mil­ lions of piper containers sent over­ seas cann* be returned to Canada for re-use.' He paid tribute to the voluntary help of Canadians in prev­ ious drives and went on: “Today, the crisis is more acute than ever . The need for paperboard containers, as well as for^other paper products to serve our armed forces, grows daily and the present wastepaper supply is wholly inadequate to meet the in­ creased demand.” At one time it was difficult to ship waste paper except in carload lots and this made paper salvage difficult in small communities. New arrange­ ments have now been made, however, and 300 pound lots and over are being handled. Provincial Salvage Supervisees can supply information concerning shipments. Just think what the paper contain­ ers from your waste paper do in the war—provide protection for medical kite, blood plasma, emergency rations, gas masks, paper parachutes to convey food to earth for isolated unite; containers for naphtha or ben- sine; electrical conduits, for dehy- drafted foods which save some 85 per cent of cargo space, for bombs, air-- plane propellers, just to mention a few. The shortage of paper, which maybe doesn’t mean much lying around cluttering up your basement, might conceivably jeopardise the war effort. Mills are operating from hand to mouth, as it were, requiring 20,000 tons of waste paper a month. This appeal has all the elements of essentiality, of urgency—so won’t you co-operate with ‘your local sal­ vage committees, when that appeal is m*de through your local paper or over the radio. Your own son “over there” is mighty interested. An article in the Canadian Journ­ al of Public Health shows there are 12,344 known blind in Canada, which doesn’t include those who do not come within the definition of blind­ ness. Of the 10,040 blind, 40 years and over, 6,386 are pensioned under Act. Lowest nite of pensioners per 1000 population . is in Alberta at 0.302, highest in New Brunswick at 1.665. Total expenditure for 1942 on pensions was $1,532,640, cost being distributed 75-25 per cent to federal and provincial governments. The higher ratio of blind per thous­ and in the eastern provinces thought due to the fact they are the oldest settled parts from which many young people migrated west and to the United States. operation of the Women’s Voluntary Centres of the National War Services Department, and it really is inter­ esting. A total of 115 million pounds, or 37,500 tons, of vegetables were grown last year in 209,200 wartime gardens in Canadian cities and towns of a thousand or more population and that doesn’t include the' many thousands of war gardens in villages and on farms.. They estimate the production per garden was about 550 pounds. One urban householder in every seven had a wartime garden in 1943, which is 15% up on 1942 and 24% above 1940. Approximately 37 per cent of the stuff grown were potatoes. 14%tomatoes; 1014 car­ rots, 6 per cent beets, 4 per cent cab­ bages, etc. The survey showed that of the 37,811 gardeners in seven cities, 53 per cent canned, dried, pickled or conserved products for winter uso. The Canadian government will spend $1,162,000 this year through the Canadian Legion Educational Services for courses for the men of the armed forces and our prisoners of war. Up to the end of last Decem­ ber, $1,904,698 had already been spent to finance some 67 courses for servicemen. The idea is to help them carry on interrupted or deferred studies preparing them for re-estab­ lishment after the war. Classes are being carried on in Sicily and Italy and it is interesting to know that with textbooks furnished by the In­ ternational Red Cross through the Legion, of the 4698 men in one Ger­ man prison "camp, some 2373 atten­ ded these classes. Recreation Benefits Outlined By Speaker Mr. A. A. Burridge, Ontario repre­ sentative of the National Physical Fitness Council and Athletic Director of McMaster University, was the special speaker at the meeting of the Y’s Men’s Club held in the St Charles Coffee Shop on Friday Evening. Representatives of the Ki- wanis and Lions Club .and of the Board'of Education were also pre­ sent Trumpet solos, “Carnival of Ven­ ice,” and “When You’re Smiling,” were rendered by Jimmy Miller of the Boys’ Band. These were per­ formed in a creditable manner and were greatly appreciated. The sing song was led by Kiwaman Alex. Wilson. Rosa Bigham assisted at the piano for these selections. Mr. Burridge outlined the need for sport, athletics and recreation during war times and told of the low physical fitness of our youth"and of government plans to remedySthis condition and also pointed ont bow.to organize a local recreation council. Gordon Waters introduced the Speaker to the gathering and Gordon Canada’s new embassy building in Chunking, China, a simple two story structure, is now in use. In the for­ mer place, people engaged in Em­ bassy business had to toil down half- a-mi'e of steps, cross a river by sam­ pan, and then up a similar number- of steps at the other side in order to reach the business section of the city. Extra rations of food for the extra farm help engaged seasonally in all parts of Canada will be provided this year on the basis of a limit of five media per person per day, if that number of meals are being served each day. However ration adminis­ tration officials say sugar is still scarce arid there will be no conces­ sions in that regard. « Canada’s export trade to Southern Irelend, (Eire), is mostly in our favor. During the first three months of 1944 Canadian merchandise to the value of $2,012,000 went to Eire as against $414,000 in the same period of 1943. Our imports from that country, tho’, have dropped from $372,277 in 1940 to $2,383 in the whole of 1943. This year will show some increase in the number of prisoners of war permitted to work on farms. A camp for between two and three hundred is to be established at Chatham, Ont., for work on sugar beet farms, as is one in the Lethbridge Alberta area, some prisoners of war are placed on individual farms, around 65 are in the Metcalfe, Ontario area, and 100 at Brooks, Alberta. From May 22 to May 27 the eyes of the nation will be focused on Mrs. Consumer. Women’s Institutes, church and club groups from coast to coast, will observe the week with special programs featuring the part Canadian women are playing in carrying out the government’s econ­ omic stabilisation program. Every woman, whether in the rural or ur­ ban centres will be asked to stand firm against any increase in the cost of living. A country woman tending her house and garden, milking the cows and looking after the chickens is responsible in no small measure. After all, there are approximately 732,715' farmer’s wives in Canada. These women, through the way they they mn things in their own homes and on their farms, whether by sav­ ing money to help make their land free from debt, or by putting their surplus cash into Victory Bonds and Certificates, by managing to get along on their radons- and not buy­ ing more than they need, by refusing to pay higher than ceiling prices; by 'helping to pay farm taxes promptly, are able to make an effective con­ tribution not only to the security of their own homes, but also to the stability of their own Canada.

Two secretaries were sent to Asia to train Christian nationals in the principals and methods of the Y.M.C.A. Today this service is wel­ comed in jnore than 50 countries. Those Canadians who served in the First Great War will remember “Y” secretaries who were with them in France when going was tough, to j provide them with comforts and en-‘ tertainmenL In this war, too, men of I the “Y” are with our fighting men on every front and at every service camp.

This year the Y.MjC.A. through­ out the world celebrates the 100th anniversary of the founding of the movement. It began in a small London bed­ room on June 6th, 1844, when 23- year old George Williams, a draper’s clerk, met with elven of his friends and planned an association where they might profitably spend their spare time. They agreed to call it “Young Men’s Christian Associa­ tion.” Other centres felt the same need. The movement grew rapidly and in 1851 the first Canadian Y.M.C.A. was organized in Montreal. Today the familiar “Y” is established in 73 A new order now also provides that Alternative Service Officers may direct conscientious objectors to most essential employment, and agricul­ ture has been singled out mainly in that regard.
