Human ingenuityis taxed 10 for adequate variety, , the ex- pression of human reverence and pride. Along the age-old- lines of memorials, thought has run,—munu- mgttts, towers, tablets, memoriaal windows, public squares, parks and now common or community build- ings. The idea of these community halls has seized the popular imagin- ation, and stirred it to immediate actions. From widely separated com- munities word has reached us of purposes and plans to erect a Com- munity Memorial Hall, in Stanley, N, B., Rev. R. A. Robinson has al- ready erected one of these buildings, while at Belmont, Ont„ property for this purpose has been donated re- cently, and an active campaign is on to raise the funds necessary for the erection of the Belmont Community Hall, In consideration of the public attitude on the question, we have thought tit to devote some space, in this issue, for its discussion. Go Slow, While the Community Centre Building may be a great boom to a community, it also contains within it the possibilities of failure, if con- ceived and erected in thoughtless enthusiasm. Before any community considers embarking on a memorial venture of this nature, it should be absolutely convinced that the Com- munity Centre will fill a great need, that it alone can fill. In the ardent conception of the moment, in pas- sionate veneration of those whom it shall honor, in a present mood of sacrifice and unselfish optimism, all things seem possible, all things good. This one speaks; that one speaks; applause is free and spirits high,—the vote is taken and the die is cast, "We'll have a community hall," and off we go, to snare a white elephant, that mayhap, In two years, will 'eat its head off in the stable here," and in the end serve no more purpose than to mock, In its useless- ness, at the shortsighedness of the city fathers. Make e Survey. The first step, then, for the Com- munity, considering this form of a memorial should be a careful, cool- headed survey of the community it- self, for the purpose of ascending what t mose urgently required for its im- provement. Many a town may have a plendid town hall, an up-to-date lib- ary building, a fine school, with audi onium and gynasium; a well planned nain building attached to its fair rounds --in short, it may have every xternal requisite of the proposed corn - hall, hall, its only lack is the co- perative enthusiasm, the common itri- Utica, the sustained executive energy hat are necessary to give life to com- unity spirit and effort. It would be orse than n ens ly for such a community o arouse itself to spasmodic activity, rect another building, and after the rat muscular swing of tate new broom, lane it also in a dusty and infrequently sited corner. That community re- ulres a person or persons to stir It up, organize and carry out, to give use these buildings and purpose to the eople, Far more fitting than any mass stone and wood, would be the owth of new life and energy, as a ibute to those, who have paid for the wn, its tribute to he world's deino- acy, s r g e i m w e fi 1r vi to to p of gr tr to er llrili:e Whet You Has'o !n l iuut memorial c.otnnti t t Ce to gt tiler, renovate and adapt the Ilbr'ar the town hall, (tie.

There seems no more fitting place in which to revere men who gave their lives to preserve home and its ideals, than in a centre which should be the common home for all those whose safety they had held as dearer than life itself. And not only for those whom they had so highly served but for those unborn hundreds, who with straining eyes, shall seek in another age to compre- hend the fulness of their sacrifice. To the community, too, whose leisure hours w'uuld here be spent, the ever present sense of a spirit, greater than clay and gold, could not but be reflect- ed in a finer attitude of citizen to citizen, and in a deeper sense of ser- vice, to the country that had bred such men. Safe Financing Needed The ways and means we snail dis- cuss first. If the undertaking is to be a success, it must have the whole people behinit. Two or three gen- erous contributors may be willing to start the hall, Though this would facilitiate its erection, the contribu- tions of the people as a whole must support it, otherwise it will be han- dicapped at the start, and will never enjoy the beneficial, if critical inter- est, of a thoroughly public institu- tion, Nor should its income be wholly assured. While satisfactory financing must be guaranteed, before such an enikrprise is attempted, still the revenue must not be entirely sub- scribed. There is no greater goad to continuous effort than the absolute need of such effort. Assured compe- tence is the first essential to retro- gression. The Community should appoint a Board of Directors who would form a joint stock company for the admin- istration of the funds and the con- duct of the business. Tligse direc- tors would be elected annually.

The Government has provided a simple plan to enable you to save that quar- ter in such a way that it will earn you more money. Twenty-five cents buys a Thrift Stamp, Sixteen Thrift Stamps become a War Savings Stamp, for which the Govern- ment will pay you $5.00 in 1924. If you lend the Government your sav- ings in this way, you can make your money earn over 41/27, compound in- terest as often as you save $4,00 odd.
