"When I was a growing lad, and came
upon many words in my reading that
1 did not understand, my mother, in-
stead of giving me the definition when
I applied to her, uniformly sent me to
the dictionary to learn it, and in this
way 1 gradually learned many things
besides the meaning of the individual
word in question—among other things.
Saw tense a dictionary, and the great
pleasure and advantage there might
be in the use of the dictionary.
Afterwards, when I went to the village
school, my chief diversion, after les-
sons were learned and before they
were recited, was in turning over the
pages of the 'Unabridged' of ?hose
days. Now the most modern Una.
bridged—theNEW INTERNATIONAL—
gives me a pleasure of the same sort.
So far as my knowledge extends, it is
at present the beat of the one -volume
dictionaries, and quite sufficient for
all ordinary uses. Even those who
possess the splendid dictionaries in
several volumes will yet And it a great
convenience to have this, which is so
compact, so full, and so trustworthy

Dear Friend..—
We as a :;ath'ering of neighbors and
friends. have among: us, as guetsts of
honor, one oP the boys of our comm-
unity', who has nobly responded to the
King and !Country's call, and donned
the Khaki. to do his duty in the time
of need. •
It is unnecessary to speak of the
great need of men. The victory of
the allies and the freedom 'therefrom
can only be won by brave men in
great numbers. It • is almost im-
possible fcr es to realize . the
cries through which our Emp
Ere has, and is passing in 'thins great
struggle amang nations. When our th-
•.^•g1 t•s reflect to the stories of mur-
der crime and awful suflfering in-
flicted at the hands of the enemy
on helpless peoples, we in Canada,
especially in .our, own little Huron
County* where peace, plenty
and every comfort is found should feel
more and more the great necessity
of each and everyone "doing his bit."
'We who are unable to answer the
rca'1l to arms. need not look about) for
bvenees in which to make ourselves
a:useful as they; are on every hand.
To those who march to the battle
front and trenches, to stand between
tus and our foes, the greatest honor
Ind gratitude is due. We in th's com-
,rnunity,.feel justly proud that one of
our number haat heard the call of the
motherland and bravely replied. One
and all wish you God?-speed.We know
tbat you will perform your duties' as
a soldier manfully, courageously and
'cheerfully, and on behalf of your
friends of the neighborhood we ask you
to accept as a token of remembrance
and goad wishes this watch, and again
we unite in 'wishing you a meat; suc-
'eessful career as a soldier.

term is "business is religien" Had
men sought the kingdom first there
had been no war. This war has
arisen among nations which call
themselves Christian. The wan is not

O win the war with the decisiveness which will ensure lasting peace, the Empire
. will require to put forth its full collective power in men and in money. From
this viewpointit is our true policy to augment our financial strength by multiplying our
productive exertions and by exercising rigid economy, which reduces to the minimum
all expenditures upon luxuries and non -essentials. Only in this way shall we be able
to make good the loss caused by the withdrawal of so many of our workers from indus-
trial activities, repair the wastage of the war, and End the funds for its continuance. It
cannot he too frequently or too earnestly impressed upon our people that the heaviest
burdens of the conflict still lie before us, and that industry and thrift are, for those
who remain at home, supreme patriotic duties upon whose faithful fulfilment
our success, and consequently our national safety, may ultimately depend."—
SIFT! THOMAS WHITE, Minister of Finance.
PRODUCE MORE, SAVE MORE.
MAKE LABOUR EFFICIENT.
SAVE MATERIALS FROM WASTE.
SPEND MONEY WISELY.
LET US PRODUCE AND SAVE—
The war is now turning on a contest of all forces
and resources—men, munitions, food, money. The
call to all is to produce more and. more. It may be
necessary to work harder. The place of those who
enlist must be taken by those at home, inert and
women, old and young. The more we produce the
more we can save. Produce more on' the farms and
in the gardens. Save more and help to win the war.
LET US NOT WASTE OUR LABOUR—
In this war -time all labour should be directly pro-
ductive or should be assisting in production. Make it
as efficient as possible. If your l' baur is on something
thatcanbe postponed, ost ned, put it off till after the war and
make your labour tell now. Making war is the first
business of all Canadians. Efficiency in labour is as
important as efficiency in fighting.
LET US NOT WASTE MATERIALS—
Begin at home. The larger portion of salaries
and wages is spent on the home—food, fuel, light,
clothing. Are any of these things being wasted ?
$20.00 a year saved from waste in every home in
Canada will more than pay the interest on a war debt
of $500,000,000.
LET US SPEND OUR MONEY WiSELY—
Are you spending your money to the best advan-
tage? What do -you think of extravagance in war
time? Tens of thousands of Canadians are daily
risking their Lives for us at home. Is it not our duty
to be careful and economical? Canadian dollars are
an important part of the war equipment. Make them
tell. Have a War Savings Account, Buy a War
Bond.
