LEARNING TO BUILD FURNITURE productive capacity is the measure of her future prosperity. To assure this Province a prominent place in domestic and foreign trade markets, skilled hands are needed. In training schools and ON THE JOB, veterans are being taught how* to make furniture— urgently needed for homes that must be built here and abroad. They know that higher wages, job security and better working conditions are within easier reach of those who have mastered individual skills. Through plans sponsored by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs and other agencies, hundreds of veterans have been given basic training in various trades. They will become more proficient with further experience and training ON THE JOB. Taught to use their hands in fashioning wood products and in upholstering and finishing furniture, these craftsmen of the future will have a share in Ontario’s progress-—an important part to play in her industrial development.

Two License Plates For Ca rs Next Year Discontinued during the war in the interests of economy, dual license plates will again appear on Ontario vehicles in 1948, the On* tario Department of Highways announces. Next year’s plates will have white figures and letters on a dark blue background. The design of the plates has not been altered except for a change in the Crown at the top of each plate. A very great shortage of steel during the war forced provinces and states to issue rear vehicle markers only. Reports now indi cate that most of the provinces and states are reverting to the two- plate system which is recognized as essential in the interests of law enforcement. the month of September: Hydro- Electric Power Commission, town ship hall and council rooms $8.10; W.
