W. MILLER, County Clerk, Goderich, Ont. The Christian people of Wingham are called to regard the services of next Sunday as a summit-point in the religious experiences of the year. Let our people be stirred, not only to the support of the- present Victory Loan, urgent and vital though this he, but al­ so to an “all-out” effort in every de­ partment of our national life, which will assuredly result in victory and a righteous and abiding peace. In every village and town and city of Canada, hearts and minds must be' quickened to a strong and sacrifical loyalty on behalf of the Cause of Free­ dom, RigheousnesS and Peace. Let those who until now have been comfortable and complacent begin to fulfil in themselves, in their prayers and work and giving, our King’s claim for us that “this time we are all in the front lines.” The strong hands of our brothers and sisters overseas are holding the Torch aloft with unexcelled courage and unwavering determination. Every day their strength grows and the Torch increases in lustre and radiance. This is no lost cause we seek to bol­ ster, We share in the awakening of a mighty Empire to its full majesty and power. This Sunday must be a full gather­ ing of the Household of God — and let us all make our Pledge, “I hereby declare my belief in Al­ mighty God, and reaffirm my loyalty and allegiance to His Majesty the King, and further declare my support for British institutions. “I pledge myself and my all to hold the Torch on high, and to march shoulder to shoulder with the Moth­ erland and the Empire in our right­ eous cause through victory and endur­ ing peace.” TORONTO HURON OLD BOYS NEWS TENDERS Tenders will be received by the un­ dersigned until 12 o’clock noon Satur­ day, June 7th, for the sale of the wood­ en hangar situated on Sky Harbour Airport.

HURON COUNTY HAS AN OPPORTUNITY Victory Loan Vice-Chairman Appeals to North Section of County To Lead The Way. My place as vice-chairman of Hur­ on County 1941 Victory Loan Cam­ paign, in charge of the North Section of the County, is insignificant when compared to what you as citizens of this county can do. I have lived am­ ong you for many years and have al­ ways thrilled to your accomplishments and your successes of years gone -by. Huron County is being asked to sub­ scribe $1,300,000 as its quota of the loan. In 1919 the amount that was al­ lotted as our share was nearly twice this figure. At that ime you respond­ ed to the appeal in no uncertain man­ ner as the amount subscribed was very close to $3,500,000. I feel confident we can reach our 1941 objective, but we must make ev­ ery effort to exceed it and .if we can duplicate the 1919 campaign how heartening this will be, not only to Canada but to Britain and. her Em­ pire. Wingham, Turnberry, Howick, Grey, Morris and Brussels, the dis­ trict which I have the honour to re­ present, I appeal to you to answer this challenge of 1919. We must not fail! When so many young Canadians are offering their lives in the battle for freedom, I feel most confident that you will subscribe to this loan to the utmost of your ability. Your money is being loaned and not confiscated as would be the case in Germany or oth­ er dictator-governed countries. Your dollars will help -crush Hitler and all that'he stands for. And your ready and liberal response to that loan will assist in preserving for posterity that right of freedom which is only enjoy­ ed by the peoples of democratic coun­ tries. -Herbert Campbell, LETTER TO THE EDITOR ALL ELSE IS FOLLY There is too much of the complac­ ent feeling in Canada that this coun­ try is comfortably separated from Europe’s war .by miles of ocean and that the individual is putting forth a satisfactory war effort if he. carries on in his usual manner and does not too greatly inconvenience himself financ­ ially and materially. We talk big but we do not -deliver the good commens­ urate with our abilities. Let Germany win and the assets of Canada will dry up almost to the van­ ishing point. It would require that each man, woman and child consume the following produce per year to use up our regular production: 22 dozen eggs, 11 65 26 45 Several auto loads of members of The Huron Old Boys and Girls Assoc­ iation of Toronto, motored to Oak­ ville on Sunday evening and attended Divine Worship in Oakville Presby­ terian Church.
