Mr. and Mrs. W. N. Murdock
Dear Pearl and Bill:
We are gathered together
evening to extend our felicitations
on the recent happy event which
makes two hearts beat as one.
To you, Bill, for joining the R.C.
A.F., and then taking unto your
self a charming bride, we offer our
congratulations. We are proud of
you. But we are both pleased and
sorry—'Pleased that you have seen
fit to relinquish a remunerative
position in civilian life to help de
fend our country and our homes,
And we are sorry that civilization
has degenerated to such a degree as
to make necessary the sacrificing
of a good position.
To you. Pearl, we wish to say; Be
of good cheer, and we trust the day
will be not. far distant when we
shall be privileged to gather to
gether again with you, to help wel
come home your soldier boy.
We ask you to accept these gifts,
to you, Bill, this money belt, and
to you. Pearl, this hamper, not for
any value they possess, but as a
symbol of our sincere good wishes
and the high esteem we hold for
you*
(Signed on behalf of your friends.

VICTORY LOAN SERVICE
(Continued from Page One)
Lieutenant C. K. Salisbury, padre
No. 9 S.F.T.S., Centralia. Mr. Salis
bury, who spent nine years in Ja
pan, gave a very fine- address, out
lining some of the history and back
ground of the Japanese and of their
aims and sacrifices in the present
gigantic struggle. He appealed to
the audience for hearty cooperation
in the present victory loan drive.
While the men at the front are sac
rificing their all, we are only being
asked to lend. The-audience rose
and repeated a pledge to “fulfil to
the limit of my power each war
time duty that faces me, and to
stand shoulder to shoulder with
those of my fellowmen who are de
fending with their lives our mutual
cause.”
Unfortunately, some Victory Loan
films which had been arranged for
were unable to be shown.
R. N. Creech, chairman of the
Victory Loan drive in Exeter, made
the presentation to Reeve B. W.
Tuckey of the Victory Loan flag.
Before making the presentation Mr.
Creech read an appeal from Mr.
Spinney, chairman of the National
War Finance Committee, emphasiz
ing the fact that this loan is a mat
ter for every Canadian having an in
come or funds under his control.
This loan will stand or fall by the
response it receives from ‘ people of
moderate means. After receiving the
flag on behalf of the council and
the citizens of Exeter Reeve Tuckey
called on Flight Lieut Sansbury
to dedicate it.
Hern was then
