XOUR DUTY IS CLEAR Canada had no alternative but to declare war. -So long- as we are part of the Empire we are at war when Britain is at war. Canada’s formal proclamation was issued on Sunday » but it caused little or no comment as the people of this great country in their hearts were already at war, Ev­ ery group in the House of Commons and Senate endorsed this move. On­ ly three members raised their voices in objection which proves beyond a doubt that the members of the House were almost as one on this great de­ cision. This formal statement will show the world that Canada of her own free will is behind Britain and France solidly and with determination. Now that we are at war we believe that all our resources and man power should be mobilized to insure victory. Canada should co-operate with Great Britain, to the fullest. It has been said that if the war on the Rhine is lost it will be continued on the banks of the St. Lawrence, which is probably true. Every effort should be made to put the world on a peaceful basis by bringing the present conflict to a suc­ cessful conclusion. If this is to be done there should be no war profits. A proper registration of all man pow­ er should be made, exery business that has to do with the manufacture of war equipment should be going-at top speed, efficient management of all government business is imperative. Any person found hoarding should be dealt with according to law with­ out exception. The wealth of the country as well as the man power, should be at the call of the govern­ ment. The privileges we enjoy in this great country were won for us by our forefathers at great sacrifice. They are worth preserving, 5k * * * HOARDING WILL NOT BE ALLOWED (Many people afraid that prices will rise greatly due to the present war, have or are trying to lay in stores greater by far than they normally would. This action will have a tend­ ency to raise prices more than any other thing. If ail would buy in only normal quantities and be calm about things until the full weight of those whose duty it is to stop profiteering get properly organised it would be of great assistance to the government and help to stabilize prices. Hoarding is now a criminal offense and the full force of the penalty will most likely be used to stop such pracT tices. Be a good Canadian — Buy your normal requirements only. to be on hand. Bob Bridgeford and Leo Oberle did mound duty for the respective clubs and cully the Tribe's continued failure to hit with men on kept them from romping home easy winners. The Hurons left nine men stranded in sev* en innings, which is plenty, Both hur- lers struck out six, but Leo walked three and allowed six hits to the three Hanover garnered. An unfortunate error gave Hanover their run in the first inning, Ellis get­ ting a hit when no one covered first on his roller near the bag. Krueger sacrificed and Ellis took third while Willoughby was being retired. Mag­ wood lifted a high fly to right but Gray failed to hold it and Ellis scor­ ed. Oberle lined to Somers to end the frame. The Hurons filled the bases in the second and had two men on in each of the 3rd and 4th but it was not till the fifth that they managed to score. Groves drew a base on balls and stay­ ed put while Doran popped, but Bart Smith scored the big catcher with a two-base poke to right centre. Oberle tossed out Gray and Lediet popped to third after Srriith had stolen third without a play. No Dice HOUSES YOUR TIRt • You can’t shine at work or play if you’re troubled with constipation. And common constipation is not a necessary evil. Too little bulk in your diet often causes it. Foods like meat, bread and potatoes do not form the “bulky” mass the bowels need for regular movements. They become lazy, Eat Kellogg’s ALL­ BRAN, a crisp, delightful cereal. It helps to supply the “bulk” you need. And it is especially rich in Nature’s intestinal tonic, Vitamin Bi. Try this sensible routine: Eat ALL-BRAN every day. And drink plenty of water. Discover how fine it feels to be “regular” again. ALL-BRAN KIN OLIS YOUR WML McCammon, rf . .Peterson, p .......

Fred Mellor drop­ ped a double into left field scoring Mac and bringing in Thompson to pitch. Krueger moved to third, Ellis to second, Moore to first and Deeves to left field" at the same time. Somers drew a walk and started to steal sec­ ond but Groves popped into an easy double-play to end a promising rally. Hanover staged a brief rally in the ninth, Pin Thompson opening with a single to left. Magwood lofted to McCamman but Willoughby dropped a hit right on the left-field foul line, Thompson scoring before the ball could be retrieved. The hit was- good for two bases and third while.

The local Central League Club went to town in a big way here on Thursday when they tied Drew in the semi-final series for the league cham­ pionship by winning 7-2. Drew won the first game 8-7. The locals played one of their best games of the sea­ son behind the fine pitching of Bill Groves. The locals went into their half of the second inning one down but soon changed that as they scored four runs. Adding another in the third put them in good position. They scored another in the 5th to put them five to hte good and added another in the 8th. Drew scored one in the 9th. Line-ups: Clifford: R. Shannon, c; B. Chil­ ton, ss; H. Crow, p; O.

RAILWAYS. — Forced co-op­ eration for a period of three years, and if this is found not to bring about the desired economies, the whole problem will be submitted to a com­ petent non-political board for furth­ er study and recommendations. If the latter seem feasible, they will be im­ mediately acted upon. .Although at the moment’we are not prepared to offer a solution of' the railway prob­ lem, it is believed that it is capable of being solved by ordinary business methods and the country saved the enormous waste of money due to dup­ lication. 3. THE B.N.A. ACT. — As soon as the report of the Rowell-Sirois Commission is available, a- careful study of its factual findings will -be made and in so far as its recommen­ dations are justified they will be put into effect by making the- necessary amendments to the B.N.A. Act. We are financially embarrassed’ by the necessity of maintaing ten mentsS with their attendant duplica; tion of services, the great cost of which could not have been when the B.N.A. Act was framed ov­ er 70 years ago’. 4. INDUSTRY.—The Government will supervise the manufacture of Canada’s war supplies and encourage, our industries to develop sufficiently to manufacture munitions for the Empire. 5. TARIFF. — The policy of Em­ pire Preference will be continued, Realizing the damaging effect upon industry of constant changes in tariff, every effort will be made to ensure its stabilization. 6. TAXATION—If, Canada’s cre­ dit is to be maintained, it is of para­ mount importance to boTance the bud­ get.

Hal. Peterson turned in one of his old-time performances last Saturday and pitched the Wingham Hurons to the game that won them their group champion‘|up. The game was played at Hanover before a fair crowd and the final score read 4-2 for the Hur­ ons. The Hurons won the series 3 games to 1, with a tie game also be­ ing played. Saturday’s game, as were the others, was an interesting affair with both clubs in the running all the 1 way. The ancient Rev, Howald started for the Red Sox but wasn’t as effect­ ive as he was in Wingham and yield­ ed up enough runs to lose the game, Pin Tompson finishing the game. The Hurons had a slight margin on the hits, eight to seven, and no Brave could garner more than one. Most damaging blows were a triple by Bill Lediet and a two-base hit by Fred Mellor, Clark Willoughby’s double was the only extra base hit Hanover • could garner and it scored Hanover’s final run. The fielding was quite steady by both clubs. The Hurons took a one-run lead in the first and were never headed. After Melloi4 had opened the game by rolling out, Ken Somers singled to centre, stole second, went to third on Groves* infield out and scored on Doran’s single to centre, Dick then went down stealing. The Tribe won “the game in the fifth, Bart Smith lined a single to right and scored when BillJLediet lift­ ed a long drive to left centre, Bill also scoring when Magwood tossed the ball into the crowd trying to get him at third. Peterson also singled in this inning but nothing came of it A pair of errors gave Hanover a run in the same frame, Lediet tossed out Howald, but Ellis’ Toller went through Doran. Krueger hit what looked'like a double play ball to Mel­ lor but Smith dropped Fred’s throw and all hands were safe, Thompson forced Ellis at third but .Magwood singled to score Krueger, Smith threw out Willoughby for the third out. The Hurons tint the game on ice with one ran in the eighth al­ though they should have had more. Willoughby took was tossing out drew a base on down and threw Series’ End ss; Moore, cf; c; Thorpe, lb; Hasefgrove, 2b; .M. Groves, rf; Pol­ lock, If; W. Groves, p; Fraser, cf; Johnson, If.
