Keep your dollars safely out of competition with the contents of other pay envelopes— don't buy what you don't need. In- vest your spare cash; don't squander it. Otherwise you may wake up to- wonder what happened to your buying power. On the home front the battle against inflation is the most critical battle of all. —W. L. MacKenzie King, Prime Minister. The key to every man is his thought Sturdy and defying though he look, he has a helm which he obeys, which is the idea after which all his facts are classified. —Emerson, WESTFIELD Mr, and Mrs, Sam Nesbit of Kin- cardine, visited on Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Geo.
