Your country meeds the mon­ ey to -provide munitions, to back up the boys overseas, to win -the war and keep the enemy from coming to Canada. Second, because it is good busi­ ness. if you are a small wage earner, you are laying by something for a later day, when earning may not he so easy, and youi' savings will then come in very handy to tide you over a possible bad time* it is like buying an insurance policy due in seven and a half years. What better insurance icould you have? s If you are a larger wage earner, you can afford to be more liberal in your buying of certificates, and thus provide yourself an assured in­ come after the war, when we know we are all going to need it. If you pay income tax it is good business to buy these certificates right up to the limit of $4-0- a month per person. These certificates are free of income tax. Wouldn't yon rather buy a tax-free certificate rather than a taxable bond? Remember you are only asked to save and to lend, lend freely, the Government‘will forced to tax more heavily- It is patriotic. It is good business 4 C. Tanton A BUY ujrr saviNSj CBTIFICOra BINGO!

At the Lions supper meeting on Mon­ day evening several members of tho War Savings .Committee were pre­ sent as guests'and time was kindly given to hearing pep talk, progress reports and organization. Ten ad­ ditional members of the Lions Club volunteered to act as canvassers. With their help the campaign should proceed more rapidly and it is con­ fidently expected that if everyone will do their part and lend to the utmost of their, ability, the objec­ tive will he reached by the end of the month. We still have a long way to go, but 'Exeter and district have never fallen down, and we feel that they will not do so this time. We aim at monthly pledges amount­ ing to $2,066 a month. The secre­ tary was able to report on Monday evening that the half-way mark had been passed. In addition, single purchases of War Savings Certifi­ cates had been made this month to the total of $2,440 on the clock in R. dow. It indicates the canTpaign. A considerable companies and firms -have sub­ scribed 100 per cent. Both employ­ er and employees to the last one are lending some portion of their salaries or wages in monthly pledg­ es. $457 a month has been secured In this way. The professional com­ mittee report showed, in a partial canvass, $187 per month. The bus­ iness men’s committee, with -the canvass only well started, $122 a month. Pledges given voluntarily to the banks amount to $196 per month. In round figures, at the date of February 17th, the cam­ paign in Exeter shows $1600.00 per month in pledges aild $2440 in single investments. Several people are pledging $40 a month. To go Over the tdp we need more of these, and many of lesser amounts. Premier Winston Churchill in his last address to the Commonwealth of Nations and the United States said: "Put your confidence in Us, Give us your faith and “blessing. We shall not fail or falter, We shall not weaken or tire, Give us the tools and We will finish the job." Contributions Acknowledged .1. R. C.
