Home Again
“If we know opr boys,” said a
great many people in this country,
“the first thing they’ll want when
they get discharged is a long holi
day . . . about three months. They’ll
act just like kids getting out of
school. They’ll want to lounge
around, doing nothing but eat,
sleep and loaf, with no crotchety
sergeants or brass hats to salute.”
As a matter o.f fact, this gener
ally holds good—but' not for any
three months, according to figures
in possession of the Rehabilitation
Information Committee. For the
first .couple of weeks after he gets
that all-important slip of paper
wliich informs all and sundry that
the undersigned is no longer a
member of the active forces of his
country, the repatriated veteran
' enjoys life to the full, with little
thought for the future. He sees
his wife, children, mother or sweet
heart that he’s only known in his
dreams or so long. He drops into
the drug store foi' the old familiar
chocolate malted, hangs around the
ball park playing catch. He gets
out the old casting rod and goes
fishing. In short, he does every
thing he has wanted 'to do for a
long time.
But then he realizes that all these
things used to be fun because there
was a gang of his Old friends to
work <and play with. Now all his
old pals are working long hours,
or waiting on the other side for
their turn to be repatriated.
Loafing doesn’t seem as enjoy
able as he thought it would be.
Something seems to be lacking.
Soon, it all begins to pall. (And so
he decides that he has to take the
plunge back to a civilian job.
Statistics compiled by veterans
welfare officers from coast to
coast show that about 40 per cent
of the veternas soon decide- to go
/back to the job that is waiting for
them whether in their own busi
ness, the place they left to join up,
or on their own farm. The next 20
to 2 5 percent says, “Okay, I’m.
back. How about a new job?” An
other 20 to 25 per cent expresses
the desire to take some vocational
oi’ university training before sett
ling down.'
Veterans are being discharged
from the services at the rate of
30,00$ a month, but the measures
drawn up by the government to
help them re-establish themselves
are operating with all possible
smoothness. There were a few com
plaints, however. Some of the men
grumble at regulations governing
the securing of land, they .complain
because gratuity checks sometimes
do not come in when they are sup
posed to. Often they do not think
they have been given the right
jobs or they feel that the occasion
al official has given them a had
steer.
For such a big programme, how
ever, the number of real complaints
is surprisingly few. * The Depart

Farms' For Veterans
There may have been a time
when farming was a haphazard
sort of business, operated by rule-
of- thtimhj but that’s Certainly not
the ease in 1945, And it is certain
ly not the case when it comes to
the Veterans’ Laitd A.ct. This im
portant part of machinery of re
habilitation is functioning at the
pre’sent time, and will continue to
function, with the clear purpose
of seeing that the men who elect
to turn from war to agriculture
are the men who can make a suc
cess of it.

stock and equipment up to $6,000.
The maximum amount that can be
expended for livestock and equip
ment is $1,200. The veteran makes
a down-payment of 10 per cent of
the cost of the land and buildings
in instalments which may be ex
tended up to 25 years. The rate of
interest on this is 3 y2 per cent. The
government absorbs the balance of
the cost wliich is approximately 24
per cent. In addition, if he has
complied wjith the terms of the
contract for 10 years the money
which he obtained for equipment
and livestock becomes an outright;
grant. After 10 years, or after the
veteran has paid all his instalment,

veteran is given the deed to the

Painful,

Boils are an. outward indication of impurities in
the system, and just when you think you are rid of
one another crops up to take its place and prolong

To help overcome boils you should purify the blood, so why not give
