NAVY LEAGUE DAY SATURDAY There Can Be No Other Course But To Help Freely. On Saturday, May 31st, the Ontario Division of the Navy League is hold­ ing a tag day here, under the auspices of- the Wingham Patriotic Association, to 'raise funds for their work, which embraces doing everything possible, in every way and in every department, for the bodily and mental comfort of the men of the Royal Canadian Navy and the Merchant Services. Every day the assumed responsibil­ ity of the Navy League to the men who “go down to the sea in ships” is increasing, not only because, as the Minister of Naval Affairs has stated, the personnel of our naval services is increasing, but because new opportun­ ities of service to those lads are being' created. And the Ontario Division of the Navy League is taking every ad­ vantage of those opportunities. Our men of the naval services didn’t sign up expecting to have comforts and woollens and cigarettes and ditty bags given them. They are just as brave in action without their woollies and other things the Navy League pro­ vides through your help. Our delight in helping provide comforts and wool­ lens and recreational services should be all the greater therefor. But fight­ ing for us and risking their lives for us is surely sufficient on their part Without doing without the help it is in our power to give,them, through giv­ ing to the Navy League. To stand on watch, to man the guns under fire, to spend hours in the wat­ er, ship-wrecked, aye/to die, for us all, that we may live and walk in peace, is for these men fust a duty gladly performed. By providing warm cloth­ es, comforts, recreation, in their brief hours of leisure and ky giving care and supervision to their dependents, we all can, through the Navy League Tag Day, make the lot of the seamen a great deal lighter. They arc risking all for us. The least we can do is to say “Thank Yduw in a tangible way, by helping the Navy Teague help them, SATURDAY, May 31st.

This pair, Arthur Ralston, 19 years old, and George Grey, will face sixteen charges, two of them are Wingham mfractions of the law. Ral­ ston was picked up at his sister’s farm by Constable Gordon Deyell and Coun­ ty' Constable William Gardiner. Grey was arrested at Parry Sound. Con­ stable Otto McClevis, of Walkerton, went north to bring the lad back. This is the pair who are alleged to have entered Armstrong’s garage here and besides taking some money, walk­ ed off with a can of oil and a tire. The goods, we understand,- were par­ tially , used to identify them with this job. A car belonging to William Mc­ Kenzie, of Lucknow, was found near Purvis’ Lake and stolen plates were in the car. .The Purvis car was also stol­ en, and was located near Lucknow.

Delivery Horse Does Run-Away Stunt When Mitchell’s Meat Market deliv­ ery horse made a dash for freedom jit noon Tuesday it caused quite a flurry in the vicinity of Josephine and Vic­ toria Streets. The horse broke away from-the wagon and raced down Vic­ toria St. toward the main street. It clipped (Mr. Percy Stainton’s car on the way and when it rounded the cor­ ner to go up Main Street it dragged a bicycle which belong to Donna Lock­ ridge to the middle of the road. Donna had laid her wheel on the sidewalk while she did some shopping, so was not near the place where the horse ran into the wheel, The bicycle was batt­ ered up about 'the rear wheel. The horse was stopped after it had gone a few yards up Josephine Street. INSTITUTE GIVEN ADDRESS ON POETRY Mrs. A. R. DuVal Spoke at Institute Meeting The regular meeting of the Wing­ ham branch of the Women's Institute was held in the Council Chamber on Friday, May 23rd, With the pres­ ident, Mrs. Henderson, in the chair, the meeting opened by singing the Op­ ening Ode, followed by the Lord’s Prayer. After the usual transaction of business, the remaining preparations were made for the District Annual, to be held in Wingham on May 28th (to­ day). Mrs. W. S, Hall, convenor of Can- adianization, introduced the guest speaker, Mrs. A. R. DuVal. Mrs. Du­ Val chose to speak on “Poetry.” After thoroughly explaining the musts be­ fore starting to write Poetry, Mrs. Du­ Val told of some of the talented poets in our neighbouring communities, and it is surprising the number of artists who are living in the surrounding vil­ lages and towns. We should mention that just a few weeks ago Mrs. DuVal submitted a piece of poetry to the Can­ adian Poetry Contest. Out of four hundred and fifty-three entries, twen­ ty-three of these poems weqe chosen as the prize-winning poems, and the poem written by Mbs. DuVal was one of the twenty-three chosen by the Board of .Governors, The speaker read a couple of poems, and by request read the poem which was accepted' by the board of governors. A hearty vote of thanks was given Mr.s. DuVal, and the Institute was indeed fortunate in hav­ ing someone who is so talented in our community. Mrs. DuVal’s poems ap­ pear quite regularly in the Homemak­ er’s page in the Globe and Mail. Mrs. Thos. Bower gave a reading, then Misses Grace Hutcheson and Dorothy Hamilton favored with a very- appropriate and beautifully rendered duet “Land of Hope and Glory”, ac­ companied by Miss Tena Reid at the piano. The meeting closed with “God Save the King” after which the hostesses served a dainty lunch and a social half- hour was enjoyed.

RED CROSS NEWS We still continue to tell the people how the work of the Canadian Red Cross is appreciated in the bombed ar­ eas of England. Portsmouth has tak­ en the brunt of the German bombing for some time and a woman worker •from there writes, “Words fail to ex­ press our gratitude for the lovely blan­ kets and quilts. You cannot imagine what it means to lose your homes and all in them and the Red Cross women of Canada would be amply repaid if they knew what the English women say about their hand made quilts. They often make the firsit start' toward a new home.” To-night the children in Canada will sleep safely in their beds. But the children in England sleep under the dark cloud of danger and many are left homeless and with­ out clothing. The Canadian Red Cross is right on hand in these emergencies, warm clothing and shoes ate supplied quickly. This demands constant serv­ ing and knitting by Red Cross work­ ers. The Wingham Branch has a large quota to fill each month, so the wo­ men are urged to call at the work rooms on Tuesdays and Thursdays where the garments are cut out ready for sowing and >arn will be given out for knitted articles, PUPILS TO COMPETE IN ESSAY CONTEST Victory Bonds As Prizes for Ontario Winners, Cups for Local Prizes Local students will take part in a provincial-wide essay contest.

MISSIONARY GAVE SPLENDID ADDRESS Miss Dorothy Douglas, Returned Mis­ sionary, Spoke at St, Andrew’s In connection with a movement that took place throughout Maitland Pres­ bytery of the Presbyerian Church in Canada, Miss Dorothy Douglas, of Lucknow, recently returned from the missionary fields of Formosa, gave a very inspirational and instructive ad­ dress at St. Andrew’s Church, Sunday evening. Miss Douglas told of the seventy years of Missionary work which has been carried on in the Island. The population of about six million is made up of mostly Head Hunters, Ab­ origines, and Chinese. There are, of course, Japanese, but they are few in number but are over-lords and carry on the government and other such im­ portant duties. The Japanese, al­ though they strive to stop the spread of the Christian influence, have done some good in other ways, Miss Doug­ las said. They have done much for sanitation and every child must have a public school education. High schools are scarce and to receive this education students mostly go to Jap­ an, In the north of the island there are 75 churches, 28 of which are sglf sustaining. These are divided into three Presbyteries. In the south of the Island there are five Presbyteries and efforts to have them all under one synod are under way. The work carried on by the mission­ aries has met with great success, about one in 100 are Christian, considering the short time, 70 years, that the Gos­ pel of Christ has been preached there. The old customs of the people are hard to break as they have been practiced for thousands of years. Ancestral wor­ ship is the hardest of these customs to overcome.

WINGHAM READY FOR VICTORY BOND SALE Chairman J. W. McKibbon Urges that All Subscribe as Quickly as Possible Do your part to put Wingham over the top in the 1941 Victory Loan that will get under way Monday next. The country needs $600,000,000, of which Huron County is asked to raise $1,- 300,000. In the 1919 loan campaign the Town of Wingham subscribed $294,000 exceeding the quota by $124,- 000. The local committee are very an­ xious that the citizens of this town do as well or better than they did in 1919. To do this it will be necessary that ev­ ery one take part to the fullest extent possible. The bonds are in denomina­ tions of $50, $100, and -up, so that most all can subscribe. Arrangements may be made to pay by the instalment at the bank, if interested in this propo­ sition ask one of the salesmen. The salesmen are Roy Hudson, Cosens & Booth, FI. Victor Pym, A. M, Forbes.

HURON COUNTY MUST RAISE $1,300,000 Victory Bond Campaign Starts Mon­ day Next “Why Canada Must Borrow” Proceeds of Canada’s 1941 Victory Loan will be used for two purposes— to help finance .Canada’s war effort: and to render financial assistance to Great Britain. Hon. J. L. Ilsley, Minister of Fin­ ance, in his recent budget address, es­ timated that in the current fiscal year the Dominion Government would have to raise about $1,000,000,060 by way of borrowing. • Of this amount, the major portion, will be for the purpose of financing Britain’s deficit in her balance of pay­ ments with Canada, arising out of huge purchases of supplies and muni­ tions in Canada, For the current fiscal year. British purchases in Canada will reach ap­ proximately $1.5 billions. On this bas­ is it is estimated that Britain’s deficit in her balance of payment with Can­ ada will total approximately $1.1 mil­ lions. In order that there may be no stoppage in the shipment of vital sup­ plies which Britain is - buying from Canada,-the Dominion Government has undertaken to finance such proportion oif the deficit as Britain herself will be unable to meet by the transfer of gold or United States dollars to Canada. “The deficit in the balance of pay­ ments,” which Canada has undertaken to finance, means very little to the great majority of Canadians. To put it simply, Great Britain has insuffic­ ient Canadian dollars with which to pay for the supplies she wants from Canada and the Dominion Government has undertaken to provide those dol­ lars. By buying Victory Bonds Canadians will be providing aid to Great Britain, over and above the assistance being given by the Canadian Navy, Army and Air Force. They will be giving Prime Minister Winston Churchill “part of the tools” lie requested and which have been ordered from Canada. The cost of Canada’s war effort in this fiscal year is estimated at about $2,500 millions. Of this amount, $170 millions has been allotted to the Navy, $667 millions to the Army, $387 mil­ lions to the Air Force. In addition, financing Britain’s requirements in Canada will take $900 millions to $1,- 150 millions. It will be noted that the biggest in­ dividual item is financing British pur­ chases. This is made up of repatria­ tion of securities and credits. These represent the method whereby Canada enables Britain to secure goods with­ out having to pay Canada any cash. By this means Britain is able to buy front Canadian factories war goods made by Canadian workmen.. ; ,£• Every bond purchased will mean more wheat, bacon, cheese, flour, guns, ships and mechanized equipment for the Motherland. The quota for the County of Huron is $1,300,000, but that is the minimum and it is felt that all quotas should be over-subscribed by at least 100% and as a result the objective for the Coun­ ty of Huron should be considered as $2,600,000. Next week all Canadians will have a very real opportunity of demonstrat­ ing their loyalty and it is believed that once again all Canadians will prove willing to make sacrifices rather than submit to defeat and slavery. Next week every Canadian will be asked to lend to our Government ev­ er dollar available and this plea must be answered fully and quickly. Won First Prize Donald Rae and Alex.
