Or will thepeople le of this County rally to their pride and to THEIR HONOR ? p THE LAST CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS TO THE MEN : The business of the young man of the County today is the completion of the Battalion she was asked to form. Kitchener urges "men and more men." Canada has promised him Soo, woo. Will you be one ? Are:you content to remain at home in ease and reap business advantages while other men take your place in the firing line ? Will your conscience remain clear and clean each day of the long years to come? Does the sight of your chum in khaki leave you untroubled and undisturbed ?

Do you realize that if this war is not fought outin Europe, you and your children may be ' forced to share the sufferings of those in Europe , Do you realize that if Canada is to protect her people, her homes and her liberty, her men must be given without stint to take part in the struggle ? Thousands of glorious mothers, wives, sisters have given their dearest to this cause of Hu-' manicy and of Empire. Can you meet this type of womanhood in social intercourse? Are you content to see other mothers, wives and sisters proudly (tending off their manhood to pro- tect you and your menfolk ?
