OAPT. 117. J, EIINDLEXe
predicted that the Ilag of liberty, will
stili be unfurled fu Witt portion of
hetstern Europe and after the war
would be supported aunt maintained
by the tilted efforts el Great Brltttin,
France and the United States,
After showing that 17 millions of
Russians had sprang Ul Ow eulots at
the first .sounding of the blast or war,
and referring to the two Millions of
them who had slept the sleep of death,
with another two willione wounded
and the saute number as prisoners of
war, Capt, Hindley drew attention to
the conditions which obtaietd prior to
the war.
Referring to the reign of the Coln -
mon people in Prance the speaket rap-
idly sketched tate first few (lava of the
war, and then said that Fiance Thad
found her soul in till days, lollewing
the famvtte battle of the Marne, which
will rank in histees with the SpAllish
Arnhada and Gettysburg, Fratme had
contributed to the great tight to make
the world safe for denreuoey at. the
rate of one upon for every seven of her
population.
"If—H. 0. Wells' prediction coulee
true that monarehy will be abolished
in England as a direct re tilt of the
ware said Capt. IIindley, *qt. will be
said of Bing George that during tett•
last three and a half years he has been
England's greatest eotoptnner,"
Capt. Hiuilley then paid line trittttte
to the work of the United States in
the present contlier and deprecated
the claims that the Amerieau nation
should have entered the tear at the
time of the loss of the LO;itania, At
that tittle the Country, Ile said, was
not united and moreover, as they were
shipping to the allies all the munitions
which their factories could turn out,
the loss of these supplies would have
proved a calamity to the allied forces
along the Belgfuto frontier. Capt.
Hindley then btiefiy related the facts
which have since become so well
known, that about the time the sink-
ing of the Lusitania many of the tee'.
ments wet ewithin 21 hours of being
without shells mud fn some cases their
supplies were entirely exhausted,
The cutting off of the supplies at that
time would have made it impussibla
for the allies to hold the lines.
An eloquent and earnest appeal for
national service was made for some
time on the great need, especially in
the United Satee, to smoke out the
insidious influences, which are making
the war operations there very difficult,
Amidst tremendous enthusiestn Capt.
Hindley made the demand that in
both Canada and the U. S. A. a war
order should be passed eliminating
from the pulpits and press of these
countries all utterances in foreign lan-
guages. He was equally applauded in
making the demand that all munition
workers and aliens, benelitting
by the wan`, should be compelled to
contribute te percentage of their earn-
ings for the carrying on of the war,
"'Phe principle is absolutely uuas•
sellable," said Capt. elliulley, 'Chat if
the goverinent has the right to draft
a man, putt him in khaki and tell hire
to go to fight, it has the sato tight to
draft another Hiatt, put Mile in overalls
and tell him to go work."
Capt, Hindley also demanded that
farmers who are receiving tf2 nr more
for their wheat ehmuld be rt e{meed to
pay a portion of the difixrene between
present prices and 75 cents per hushed,
with which they wove formerly SKI is -
tied, as their contribution to the allies
on the field of Flanders, where when
are giving their lives for the !truce -
tion of those at hone.

NEW BANKING HOURS
IN EFFECT JUNE 1ST
WILL OPEN AT 9.30 AND CLOSE AT
2.30 --SATURDAY 9.30 TO 12—
DEPLETED STAFFS REASON
The local banks have been notified
through their head offices of new
banking flours adopted by the Cana-
dian Bankers' Assuelation, which com-
prises all the chartered banks.
The new hours go into effect Jame
1st and are from 9,30 a,m, till 2,30 pm
daily except Saturday, on which day
the hours are from 9.30 tent to 12
noon, This means that the banks will
open for business a half hour earlier
than at present and will close a half
e hour earlier except on Saturday Nvheii
the doors will close at 12 Instead of t
o'ctoek.
The reason for the change is ,tut ef-
fort to get more time alter closing; eaeh
day for the large amount of detail work
necessary to keep the recants up to
date. This has presented a special dif-
t eethe of Late in view til the large uunr-
ber of comparatively inexperieneed

ment.
MORPNY PROUD TO
BE AN ORANGEMAN
VIGOROUS REPLY TO TAUNTS OF
THE FRENCH—CANADIAN MEM-
BERS.
In the debate on the Quebec riots
several French members trade in-
sulting reference.: to the Orange Or-
der, to which Il, B. Morphy, AIM, for
North Perth, Deputy Granit Alaster of
British America, replied as follows.—
"I have listened to all the unpleas-
ant things that could be said about
the Orangemen of Oetario. 1 happen
to be a member of the Orange Order,
and i am very proud elf it, because, l
want to tell the holt, gentlemen, in
the Dominion of Canada, nay, in the
world, there is no Order that has
gone to the trout as loyally and pa-
triotically as the members of the
Orange Order in Canada from the At-
lantic to the Pacific. The Orange Or-
der in Canada needs no apology. Its
motto is a splendid une: "Pear God.
love the Brotherhood and honor the
King. They are not the fanatics they
are painted; the constitution of the
Orange Order assures the same
liberty to hon. gentlemen from the
Province of Quebec as they claim for
themselves. 1 wish the hon. gentle-
men to understand that we are not
the "Orangiste fanatiques" that we
hear so much about; we are merely
men of flesh and blood and kindly
instincts. That sort of remark thrown
across the floor of the house is done,
to my mind, for a purpose, and what
good purpose can be served by it is
very difficult to say, but it ill be-
hooves men sitting upon the other
side of the House, who preach against
fanaticism in such a way as to ae-
taganize, while at the seine time
praying for a consensus of opinion
and for union, to throw these taunts
across the floor.
"There have been something like 75-
000 Orangemen who have gone to this
war, not a mean number. Are they
to be condemned because they are

THE BIRDS PROTECTED
Now Illegal to Collect Buds' Eggs
—Close Seasons Fixed
Ottawa, Aiay 6. — The old and
often cruel sport of boys in robbing
birds' nests and making rival collect -

capturing, injuring or molesting of in-
sectivorous birds, their eggs or nests,
is prohibited throughout the year, ex-
cept where special permits are granted
to recognized museums or for scienti-
fic purposes. These insectivorous
birds include robins, woodpeckers,
whips, m -will larks, hummingsabirds G
whip -pour -wills, thrushes, and "all 9H
outer perching birds which feed en
tirely or chiefly on insects," A close
season for len years is proclaimed for

Are you giving aid and
comfort to the enemy?
Any householder in your neighborhood
who has a garden plot, or who ovens a piece
of suitable vacant land that is not Being
,put under cultivation in order to increase
food production, is (though he or she may
not believe it) giving aid and comfort to
the enemy in restraining food production,
as really as is the Submarine Commander'
who sinks an Allied ship laden with food.
The difference is only one of degree, not
of kind,.
Look around you! ,Look around you!
If you have not yet decided to plant a vegetable garden make up your mind to
do so now. You will not regret it. There is still lots of time. Potatoes and beans may
be planted up to ,rune 1st and these are the best substitutes for wheat and meat.
For good, practical advice upon how to lay out and cultivate a Vegetable
Garden,, write for a free copy of the booklet entitled: "A Vegetable Garden for
Every Horne." This has been prepared by the Ontario Department of Agriculture for
the guidance of citizens who will respond to this call for increased production.
