The district covered mittee consists of the of Exeter, Stephen, borne and about one Township. Its objects leadership and Has Just Arrived by the com- municipalities most third were assistance War Service Work in this to render all help possible to tne enlisted men and to their families, and to solicit and receive money for all charitable purposes author­ ized by the government. During of Us- of Hay to .give to - all district, the five years many thousands of dollars have been receved and paid out for socks, sweaters, parcels, and smokes for enlisted men, .for British bomb victims, for the navy league, and for sufferers in allied countries—Russian relief amounted to $1,336.32; Chinese Relief $498.34 and Greek Relief $833.54. The people of the district have ■been generous in their donations and in their efforts to raise money by various projects—feeling that their work after all was but a to­ ken compared to what the enlisted men had to do in the various bat­ tle fronts, and wlmt the people in the battle areas had to suffer, While the war in Europe is over the war in'the Pacific still goes on, Many of the boys will return home •during the next few months, but many will remain in Europe as an army of occupation, while others will go to fight the Japs and suf­ fering and want will still continue in Britain and the European war zones, Some of the boys on their return home will need assistance. The work of the committee must then still go on, and money ana work will still be needed in a variety of ways. Let us not think that the job is done, but rather let us 'continually look for means and ways to help the fighting men, their families and those who have suffered because of the war. The Committee has applied for renew­ al of their registration as a War Charities Fund, and will welcome every assistance from the people of thq district. j V t Classified Directory 3 GOOD REASONS FOR USING WANT-ADS: 1 . .
