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,

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.

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.

GROUP TITLE
McCammon opened by lining a single
to right and went to second on Pet
erson’s sacrifice. 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

three straight strikes past Godfrey to
end the game.
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.

2. 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

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. In order to bring "this about rev

Dispose of Hanover, Winning Final
Game 4-2.
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.
