MAH,CH 8 si, 1017 SPLELI{ 4 WIISLA RJRE (Continued from page 1) defeat the Government Candidate. Did the lilember for South 'Wellington fully comprehend the meaning of such an act? Had the Government canal date been defeated in West Simeon n la North West Toronto the Govern. , meat would have been defeated in tlxu Province, because no !.'arty supporting prohibition could have existed, The Member for South Wellington had objected to the appointment of Mem. berg of Parliament to public offieee yet his own party both in the Province and in the Dominion invariably did so. Ile resented the attack mads upon Me, James Torrance late member for North Perth and bore pereonal testimony to the character and ability of Mr, Tor. ranee, bib qualifications for the office to which he had been appointed and added that Mr, Torrance's only eon bad .been twice wounded in Prance which at least should reiieve him of the imputations tbet bad been made against him. Reverting to the question of the Hydro Electric, the speaker showed that in 1002 when the question came up in the House the liberals voted against a motion brought forward to prohibit the export of power from Ontario and also to utilize the water powers of the Province for generating and supplying electrical energy to the Municipalities at cost. Nor at the inception of the Hydro movement were they at all friendly, but now when it had become a popular and financial emcees they had changed their tactics, . Any discussion upon the nickel question he olaimed was premature until the report of the nickel commis- sion bad been brought down and the policy of the Government based upon that report was enunciated. In 1001 the liberals, then members of the House had voted down a motion that the refining of nickel should be encour- aged by counties in order thatthe entire process should be completed in the Province. Reading from a report of a speech delivered by Mr. Rowell at Tillsonburg where it was charged that nickel from Sudbury was being loaded on the Deutcbland to sink British ships and slaughter Canadian boys at the front, Mr. Musgrove char- acterized that as a- charge of treason against the Government, a statement which should not have been made without the fullest and most complete evidence. -• "When the Angel of Death is hover- ing over bhia land and the beating of his wings has already been heard in many`Tiomes it was dastardly to make .such an attack without any direct evidence or proof. , GRAIN MUCH BETTER FILLEi1 11.

In this booklet, Dr. Leacock makes an urgent call for national thrift and national caving. Ile attacks in vigorous style the evils of extravagance at this crisis in Can- ada's history, and by trenchant phrase and apt illustration disposes of various common errors in regard to individual spending of money during war time This pamphlet was originally pub- lished by Dr. Leacock himself, but the National Service Board wero so con,. vinced of its value be connection with their Thrift Campaign that they have had it republished and have under- taken its distribution. Copies may be obtained by writing to the Secretary of the National Service Board at Ottawa, or by applying to the Nation- al Service Director in any Province. 174Xl e XX. _�.c1 :tris YM � ...- _ � M VVVINVAMMIL�1. ti rr WAW , rm-... `t XX X `f �tXX >XX r XX X X X �'i P�V�4o.\.�IP.....N4w,.
