Trafalgar day has come and gone,
We've proved again our loyalty;
We've heard the cry of wounded
men, ,
And back with cash our sym-
pathy.
We're proud to db our little "bit,"
We're ready when we hear the
call
To show our soldiers at the front
That we're behind them one and
all.
Criticisms Open To Suspicion
From time to time we note criti-
cisms emanating from a section of
the Liberal press and certain Lib-
eral politicians, to the effect that
the Borden Government is not
prosecuting the war with sufficient
vigor. Probably, if we were to go
to the Province of Quebe^, other
Liberal politicians will be found
who are criticising the Governmbnt
for prosecuting the war with un-
necessary vigor.
It to difficult to satisfy some pol-
iticians.
While not denying the undoubt-
ed right of anyone to express his
honest convictions with regard to
the prosecution of the wary, it is
only natural that a certain degree
of suspicion should exist with
reference to the utteranc-
es of men, who, while to -day pos-
ing as the upholders of 'the maxi-
mum of endeavor, were only a few
months ago scornfully and jeering-
ly scoffing at the "Borden emer-
gency."
When we recollect the contemp-
tuos jokes and speeches that were
made in and out of Parliament by
the Opposition leader and his
lieutenants, the sarcasm that was
hurled at Mr. Winston Churchill
and Sir John French, the almost
daily reminder, "Have yon seen
the emergency?" and the scenes in
Parliament when Premier Borden
attempted, like a wise man, to
prepare for possible contingencies
In view of the preparations notice-
able abroad, it is bat natural there
should be some suspicion—not un-
mixed with resentment—at the
efforts sometimes noticed nowadays
to outdo one another in a bid for
popular support. It looks like the
old etory of trying to lock the
door when the thei`ves have broken
in.
As the Toronto News concludes
in a well written article reviewing
the situation, the dariog course
now being followed "reveals both
a guilty conscience and a deter-
mination if possible to retrieve a
lost reputation by misrepresenting
and denouncing the Government,"
which is wisely and aggressively
doing its best to retrieve the ground.
loat by dilatoriness on the part of
Liberal politicians,

FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS
The Yalua of the American Raw Et r
Collection
A' B. Shubert, Inc. Chicago, U, S.
A„ the largest House in the Woad,
dealing exclusively in American Raw
Furs, in a letter to the editor says in
part as follows;
"Fifty Million Dollars" worth cf
Raw Pure, quite a large sem c,f mol:-
ey, when you come to think of it.
This is a normal seasou'e production of
the, raw furs of the world, and Atneri
can raw furs make up abcut two-4114de
of the world's collec'j,n, Can you
imagine fifty million dollars changing
hands for American raw turf ? Yet such
le the case as near as can be estimated
from the account books of the largest
colleotoes. ' The merry old world still
goes round and the Coming of Winter
brings on one more Raw Fur Season.
ft is opp of the oldest industries known
to man, dating back even before the
time of Christ, and in epite of the fact
that millione of far bearing animals
are killed off every year, in spite of
the fact that rigid game lq.w-e are en-
acted to protect the fur bearers, the
game is far from being extinct, and
when the collections are smaller, the
price goes up accordingly. It is won-
derftll the pert tj3 t furs have played
in the history of map. They have
caused ware, let} tp the exploration of
new len& 11'p4 changed the mops of
nations but more wonderful ,till are
the varied fluctatione in the market,
It is the greatest speculative game in
the world. ' When the Raw Fur Mar-
ket is at its highest pitch, Wall Street
fades away to Ilgthing alongside of it,
and so it is with the Steel '}trlast and
the TobaccolAuet and the rest of our
largest industries, pefore . people
knew what steel pr i;ohacco was, they
were shinning animals fgr their fur,
and still the game has not died pet, in
fact, this season promises more activi-
ty than ever in the fur business.
Furs are an absolute neceesity as
they Wee the protective clothing of
these whose pccppation brings them
in contact with the elements gf Win'
ter. Furthermore, Furs are extreme-
ly fashionable. Milady's wardrobe is
not complete without most of her
outer garments for Fall and Winter—
her hat—evening gown and dresses
trimmed with far. al-rtd it is uneom•
mon to see shoe tope Glee tripiiped
with fur.
THE WING HA M
Zinc In Albermarle
Toronto and Hamilton capitalists
taking advantage of the present high
prices of zinc and the shortage there
will be for many years owing to the
war drains, plan to make millions by
developing the huge deposits in Alber-
marle Township, on the northern
ehore of Lake Huron. London men
who also attempted to work these
rich mines, but gave up owing to tran-
sportation and smelting difficulties
and low prices, have been approached
by a syndicate. W. H. Walker, an
expert from the Klondike, is now in
Albermarle mines and samples are
being sent to Chicago. Experts sent
by London men some time ago said
there were millions of dollars in zinc
in Albermarle.

The Canadian Ford Motor Co. has

worth of bonds from the Canadian
Government should the .Government
make a floatation, While Mr. Henry
Ford is greatly in favor of peace, as
most of us are, he is also favorable to
the allies,
"Tell the people of Canada for me
that I am with them heart and soul,'
,he said to Mr. Gordon M. MacGregor,
head of the Ford Motor Company.
Mr. MacGregor did not tell the
people of Canada that Mr. Ford was
with them heart and soul because he
feared that it might efeot detrimen-
tally the business of the Ford l(:om
pany in the German -Americans in the
United States, Mr. Ford's etgtement
is now published for the first time.
"You may say that Mr. Ford has
expressed the strongest pro -Ally sely-
timents to officials of the firm, and
to hundreds .of his friends. There le
absolutely no doubt as to the

KINSHIP
There's a figure in the trenches.
Hollow:cheeked and anxious:eyed,
With the sceptre of destruction
Ever moving by his 'side;
And he hasn't time for morale,
Or to think about his soul.
He's to occupied with business,
Keeping mind and body whole
But it's not hie fault he's fighting
In this Armageddon grim—
Liberty called to the Empire,
And the Empire called to him;
And hie wounds are borne for others,
Bleeding flesh and shattered bone—
He ie Buffeting for evil,
Though the sin is not his ownl
There's a woman in a kitchen '
Plodding through her daily grind,
With the horror of the tretiches
Ever present to her mind;
And she fears to see the papers
For a certain column there,
Scans the names with apprehension,
Reads each item with a prayer;
Dreads a telegram or letter,
Trembles as she waits alone—
She is suffering for evil
Tough the sin is not her own 1
There's a figure on a hilltop
Hanging on a cross of shame,
While the rabble surging round Him
Mock His wounds and curse His
name;
Crucified with malefactors,
He who once refused a throne—
' He is Buffering for evil,
Though the sin is not his own.
Ye who bear the nations struggle,
Thinking freedom highly priced,
Ye have kinship with the Master,
Ye are Buffering with Christ 1
