Canada did a magnificent job in
over-subscribing the minimum of the
Third Victory Loan, and it was ap
propriate that the result should
have been announced just as the
Allied nations were making the
turn from defensive warfare to of
fensive action. While $750/000,poo
was the smallest amount asked for,
the final returns show that $971,-
000,>000 was subscribed.
The War Finance Committee in
Huron feels justly pleased with the
result in this county* The mini
mum sought was $1,900,0'00 and
subscriptions were received for $2,-
272,40'0, 119.6 per cent of the
quota*

Mother Not to Blame for
the Children’s Colds
Despite all the mother can do the kiddies will run
out of doors not properly wrapped up; have on too
much clothing; get overheated and cool off too sud
denly; get their feet wet; kick off the bed clothes, and
do a dozen things the mother cannot help.
Half the battle in treating children’s colds is to give them something
they will like; something they will take without any fuss, and this the mother
will find in Dr. Wood’s Norway Pine Syrup, a remedy used by Canadian
mothers, for the past 48 years.

SERVE BY CONSERVING
This illustration, released by The
Hydro-Electric Power Coinmission
of Ontario, graphically portrays the
importance of voluntary conserva
tion of electricity on the part of
domestic consnmefs.
Factories are working 24 hours a
day, ceaselessly turning out muni
tions and equipment to back up otir
men in the firing line, and ample
electric power must be available, at
all times, for this vital production
job.
if industrial electrical equipment
Is operated two or three times as
many hours per day ' as under
peacetime conditions, it will con
sume two or three times the num
ber of kilowatt-ho-urs of energy. To
supply this additional energy the
turbines In the generating station
will require larger quantities of
water every day.
What is known, as the peak
mand for power usually occurs late
on dark winter afternoons when
the lighting load comes on before
certain factories Shut down for the
day. In some cities, the daily peak
demand -occurs just

meet this peak demand, there still
may not be enough water available

ing of energy by economical and
careful management in the home is

tion to the war effort.
