IMPORTANCE OF WOOL TO WAR EFFORT For the past twenty-five years sev­ eral million pounds of Canadian wool have been graded according to' official standards. For the first time the en­ tire clip of commercial wool in 1941 will be graded and sold according to grade. Not since the last war has wool played such an important part in the nation’s war effort as it does now. In 1940 Canada used the equivalent of approximately 70,000,000 lbs. (greasy basis), much of this volume having been imported from other parts of the empire and some from South America. Present indications are that Canadian requirements will approximate 10,000,- 000 pounds in 1941. The volume of Canadian wool pro­ duced in relation to the total require­ ments is at present relatively small. However, the bulk of eastern produc­ tion and a very considerable percent­ age of wool produced in Western Can­ ada is of the quality known as mili­ tary wool. It is important; therefore, to retain the essential characteristics of the various grades of wool without impairment. Day -by day wool grow­ ing on a sheep’s back becomes longer in fibre and the fleece while protect­ ing the sheep from zero weather is Canadian Giris In Training Mrs. J. H.

Plans were made to hold this week’s meeting at Mrs. Knight’s, Thursday evening, at 8 o’clock. The meeting closed with the singing of “Auld Lang Syne.” Young People’s Union Jack Durst presided over the week­ ly Y.P,U. meeting on Monday last, and opened with the hymn “In Christ there is no east or west” followed by prayer by K.
