It was lengthy but full of meat, so to speak. One item in that resolution that was barely mentioned, but is, we believe, one of the most important*, was the conservation of waste. Dur­ ing the last Great War the habit of saving that which might in ordinary times be considered waste grew to great proportions but so far enough attention has not been given to this very important matter. In Britain they have a saying "A rag, a bone, ar. ■old tsn can, will help our war effort.” That country is making the people. Waste conscious, something the dfotaty ors did some time ago. It may be that the dictators did this of necess­ ity but one must admit they could not have got as far as they have if they had not forced the people to sal­ vage everything possible. We were fortunate it was not necessary for us to take such drastic steps, but now we are in a war that may .last a long time and if we are to put our very best ef­ fort forth we will have to institute ’‘Salvage Sallies” and "Salvage Berts’’ as they have in the old country. * A WARNING TO SMALL NATIONS Any idea that the small nations ofi America or other parts of the world, had that their political and economic | life would not or power if t been dispelled bv the actions Italy many and by t rice it would would carry < left to them,.: of a free nat’ France in her every move Petain administration has ■things that are Nari and more of these methods are be set aside by dictat­ in'}* got a chance, has in this last year or so of Germany, Russia and France was conquered by Ger* e terms of the armis- appear that France m in the small territory omewhat in the manner is not so. under the instituted each day employed. m.

The smaller countries of the Americas sh mid take note of these happening and band themselves toge­ ther in .such a way that they, with the biger countries of this hemisphere, can protect themselves from any such ac­ tion. DEATH PENALTY It now seems certain that those who are convicted of treachery will suffer! the death penalty. Without almost a| dissenting voice, the bill passed j through the House of Commons. Thc| enactment of the bill to put such a | law on our statute books shows the; great importance that our authorities 'place on fifth column methods. Dur-j ing the last Great War there was con-! siderable of this kind of activity but| it does not compare with what has been accomplished by this method in the various phases id this war. In Britain the death penalty will be met­ ed out for similar offences. The threat from within is a big one and | each and every patriotic citizen should i make it their responsibility to report! any suspicious actions to -the proper | authorities. Do not sta/t a gossiping • campaign of .such things — do your; part — report to the police quickly. j?: sj; CROPS THAT ARE CROPS It was our privilege to travel east; of Wingham for nearly three hundred j Of Heat Wave i miles last week ' was left with u: !

A Carrick motorist, driving on the Carrick and Ho wick townline, oppos­ ite lot 22. was somewhat startled when confronted by six pairs of an­ imal eyes deflecting the lights of the car. The driver is convinced that he encountered a pair of grown wolves and four of their cubs. As the car approached them, they sneaked hur­ riedly away, Wolves have been seen in that locality several times in the past year, and it is quite possible that their number has grown to family portions.'—Mildmay Gazette.

The children, in from a romp, can profitably Join ns in this. land of cooling beverage, without spoiling their appetites for the meal ahead. Lemons blend with- almost anything used in the summer beverage. Despite their acid taste, lemons produce an alkaline reaction in the body. They contribute to the needed mineral sup­ ply of. calcium, phosphorous and pot­ assium. They stimulate the appetite, promote digestion and serve as a non­ habit forming regulator.
