Like magic, C-I-L paints produce new
home charm and radiance. Thanks to
painstaking laboratory skill and re.
search, c-I-L paints have kept their'
high quality in spite of war-time
difficulties; that's why they are the
paints to choose ,for extra attractive-
ness and longer life. But whether you
paint for beauty , or for lasting pro.
tection, your paint dealer can
give you sound advice gained from
his experience and special sources of
information. For
new pleasure in
your home and a
lasting "lift" of
your spirits, why
not get his friendly
suggestions?
I were domiciled in Canada at the opt-
break of hostilities,
Former members of Canadian forces
who qualify must use the printed ap-
plication form but dependents and
Canadians who served in other Empire
forces may submit their application by
letter. Dependents however should be
guided by the printed forms and must
indicate the member's name and serv-
ice number, state the extent to which
they were dependent upon the dis-
charged or deceased member, and
whether they were receiving depend-
ents' allowance or assigned pay at the
termination of the member's s ervice.
Canadians who served in other Em-
pire forces should give full particulars
of service, the name of the force and
unit which they served, place of dis-
charge, reasoris for discharge, full
name and service, number.
Due to the number of persons who
have been honorably discharged up to
the present time, headquarters em-
phasized the importance of early ac-
tion by applicants in order that claims
for the gratuity- may be cleared reason-
ably soon after the machinery goes into
full operation.
However,. payments will not com-
mence prior to Jan. 1, 1945, and in
some cases there may be further de-
lay, depending upon the time the ap-
plications were received.
"This announcement pertiins only
to the war. service gratuity," head-
quarters said. "Public announcement
will be made at a later date respecting
the manner in which applications for
the re-establishment credit are to be
made..1'

Marjorie Renwick, Alin Dick,
son,
On the fighting front our men are still "plugging it out".
Each advance . . '. each new sector . . each mile that
the battle front is extended . . . is hard going. Much
fighting lies ahead.
There's more to be done on the home front, too.
More money is needed to enable our country to carry her
share of the war's cost.
Our duty is clear • • • we, at home, must provide the
money. Canada must get this money from Canadians.
Fortunately, most of us have good incomes. We can
do our share.
But it is the extra effort that wins battles and we must be
prepared to make extra effort on the home front. Canada's
borrowing needs have been increased by some three hundred
and twenty million dollars. That's extra effort that we,
at home, must make. We must provide the money that
is needed . • . more money than ever before.
We must keep faith with our fighting men. We must
continue to work and save . . . and lend. We must all
lend more.
