CAN SPARE That's Ontario's New Slogan For The National Clothing Collection The National Clothing Collection is sponsored by the* Canadian Allied Re- lief Fund at the request of the Dom- inion Government which is acting on the plea of International Relief Ag- encies. Unless Canadians and other of the world's more fortunate populations answer this appeal, 130 million hum- ans, including' 25 million children, face death from exposure and sickness next winter in Europe and Asia. The second National Clothing Col- lection has been moved ahead from October to June so that the apparel and bedding will arrive overseas and be distributed 'before next winter. Art- icles. collected will be distributed to the needy in very country where Can- adian soldiers fought which include Belgium, France, Luxembourg, China, Czechslovakia, Greeoe, the Nether- lands, Norway, Poland and Yugoslav- ia. The National Clothing Collection is scheduled from June 17th to 29th., inclusive, Householders and firms are asked to securely bundle—but not sort their contributions, All kinds of used, serviceable appar- el and bedding are required, These in- clude suits, overcoats, uniforms, work clothes for men and boys, infants' and children's clothes, of all types, coats, dresses, aprons, smocks for girls and women, shoes in pairs, (tied securely with string or laces), caps, felt hats, knitted headwear, gloves, woollen socks, underclothing, piece goods, blankets, sheets and linens, draperies and remnants. All washable garments and goods should be washed but they need not be ironed, Other garments need not be dry cleaned. Clothes without buttons are acceptable as supplies are now moving into lands where the clothing will be worn. Items which cannot be baled-such as straw hats, feather beds, pillows and mattresses-should NOT be given. Navy, Army and Air Force uniforms may be given if all buttons are re- moved. Donors are asked to remove all mat- ches front the pockets of trousers and other apparel before the articles are bundled up, Strict observance of this request will eliminate the possibility of serious damage in sorting and ship- ping. Letters of good cheer may be attach- ed to contributions if the donors wish to send a message With their gifts. It is the belief of the Canadian Allied Relief Fund that this presents an op- portunity for Canadians to Write to their Allies as an expression of good- will and a desire to further peace in the World on a basis of International friendship among individuals, In the event that householders are leaving town for holidays or business firms find that their bundles are be- coining too large to keep on the prem- ises, they may deliver their donations to ;he nearest depot, or if this is in- convenient, a telephone call to any Lion for pick-up. The Wingham Lions Club have set up their committee under the leader- ship of W. R. Hamilton to take charge of the National Clothing Collection Campaign in Wingham and district, June 17th„ to 29th, The evenings of June 24th., and the 27th„ are set aside for the collection in town, and all citizens are asked to put their donations on the boulevard for the collection, or telephone any Lion for pick-up. Rural residents are invited to bring their contributions to Wingham and leave at any of the three depots, Hy- dro Shop, Carmichael's Grocery, or J. Reavie's Servic' Station, •••••••,,,aw•••• Feld Last Wednesday Afternoon With Dancing In the Evening , The officers of the East Wawanosh Federation of Agriculture held their annual picnic at the 10th Bridge on Wednesday last, with a splendid turn- out.

H. Neill's Sound equipment, the cali- thumnian parade wended its way from the post office corner to the park, Where the judges, Inspector Gilroy, Rev. E. H. Moorhouse and Principal Harold Pollock had a difficult time awarding the prizes for .best school groups, decorated bicycles and indiv4 idual comic. There were so many worthy entrants that ten special prizes were given for school groups, and nineteen decorated bicycles meant a formidable task 'to pick three winners. For the original prizes of $5.00, $3.00, $2.00 for schools, the selection was: First, S. S. No, 4, Howick; sec- ond, S. S. No. 7; 3rd., S. S.

Then came the ever-pop- ular quiz program with Ken Edgar as master of ceremonies, • The tug-of-war between men under and over thirty years, ten on a side, was won by the younger group. An impromptu softball game provid- ed a good filter-in until lunch was ser- ved aboi44 5.30. Each ,SePool pupil and child of pre- school age was given tickets for the free treats 'on his entrance to 'the grounds, and the booth attendants were kept going throughout the after- noon catering to their wants and those of the grown-ups as well. The impos- sibility of obtaining suitable supplies makes this most difficult, but the ma- jority understand and make the best of it, 'The dance iii the rink at night was very well patronized despite the some- what cool atmosphere. These attrac- tions will be continued periodically during the summer, The 'officers and members of, the Lions Club are grateful to all who contributed in any way to the success of the frolic, particularly the teachers. who expended a lot of effort in pre- paring costumes, etc, for the call- thumpian parade.
