There is a man in this part of the
world who represents, to our way of
thinking, a pretty good average of human
nature. Whenever the preacher in his
church delivers a very hot sermon against
some special kind of sin, this man gets
enthusiastic and goes around to the ves-
try to tell the preacher what a fine sermon
it was. Then he goes home and repeats
it to his brother, and they talk over the
points and the people the sermon hit the
hardest. But this particular man never
aerie when the sermon hits him.
Early next month the biggest public
campaign ever put on in Canada will be
ovswsd to get subscriptions for the fourth
Canadian war loan, the Victory Loan.
The thing people in this district must bear
in mind is: that the appeals are dir-
ected to each and every one of them. It
Is not merely the well-off men and wo-
men who are being asked to invest. It is
everybody The little sermons which
will be "preached" in the advertising
should not be taken as hints to the well-
to-do people only. Every man and n�o-_
man should watch for these adverfibe-
ments and start now. to gather up the
necessary money to buy either a fifty or
a hundred or a five hundred or a thous-
and dollar bond. in the United States
there were about four subscribers to the'
first American loan out .of every 100 per-
sons: They received only 3 and a -half
per cent. In Canada for the last war
loan there were only about 41,000 sub-
scribers, or say four in every 700. Yet
in Canada the interest was much higher
--on the Victory ,Bonds that will probably
be issued to yield about five and a -half
per cent.
The first thing anyone should do, in
our opinion, is to get rid of the idea that
there is any sacrifice involved in investing
in this loan. it is true that the patriotic I
spirit is appealed to and it is equally true
that a great and generous response tat
pected on that ground. But the new war
loan is a straightaway business oroposi-
non: safe, profitable and convenient.
Every man and every woman with as
much as fifty dollars to spare should own
one -of these new bonds, and not oily
that, but should help to show others the
worth of these bonds by recommending
them everywhere. The readers of this
paper are among the most thrifty, prow
perousand public-spirited in the Domin-
ion. Whefi the subscriptions to the Vic-
tory Loan are added from the various
districts and sub -districts we expect them
to show that this part ret the great Domin-
ion has been true to its traditions and just
to its opportunities.

Up to last evening 2111 men had been
examined by the medic 1 board sitting in
Goderich. Of these 135 were placed in
class A and the remainder, were divided
among classes H, C. D anE. A large
promotion of the men were from the
country. some coming long distances and
in some cases having to remain in town
over I ight for their examination. The
average number examined on the three
days of this week was 413, the biggest
day's work being on Tuesday. when fifty-
one young men passel through the hands
of the examining doctors,
Postmaster (,alt reports that up to
date he has issued seventy-two forms of
application for exemption from service,
while not a single man has taken out the
form for rtrplrting for service.
The following statement has been
issued from Ottawa and will clear up a
point in regard to which there has been
some doubt
"The impression seems to prevail in
some quarters that the procedure
ac)ooted in connection with the enforce-
ment of the Military Service Act makes
1t compulsory for a member of clans 1 to
he medically examined before claiming
exemption. This idea is entirely erron-
eous. Facilities for medical examination
were arranged in advance of the issue of
the proclamation to serve the convenience
of the public, and the extent to which
the medical boards have been sought in-
dicates that the public have appreciated
the advantages of this arrangement.
Medical examination, however, prior to
reporting for service or daiming exemp-
tion. band hums always been optionkl."

The Fall Weather Nar
on Little Ones.
Canadian fall weather is extremely
hard on little ones. One day it is warm
and bright and the next wet and cold.
These sudden changes bring on colds,
cramps and colic. and unless baby's little
stomach is kept right the result may be
serious. There is nothing to equal Baby's
Own Tablets in keeping the little ones
well. They sweeten the stomach. regulate
the botrels, break up colds and make baby
thrive. The Tablets are sold by medicine
dealers or by mail at too a box from Dag
