They set their large and widespread staff to work in all provines to find out, among other things, what percentage of the three million buyers of Vistoly Loan Bonds and War Savings Certificates had bought the new bonds to date; how many -of the remainder intended to buy. One of the more interesting facts which this survey uncovered was that an estimated 21% of former Victory Loan buyers in urban areas l had not yet bought because they Iwere waiting for a salesman to call: and in the rural areas an estimated 11% were also waiting fora sales- man. This proved of Particular interest to those who planned and 're giving direction t0 the sale of Canada Savings Bonds. it view of the fact that such wide publicity has ben given on this very point. While there are a number of salesmen from i^testment houses in the field, they cannot begin to make the extensive reinvest; of individuals. particularly in rural areas, which was made by the sales foce employed in Victory Loans. The odds are overwhelming that if this 21% in cities and 11% in rural districts continue to wait for salesmen. they will never buy a new bond. Two other features of the survey show that 27% of those in the nasal areas who have yet to buy are e,oing to send in tbeir applications by ma. and that 20% of those in minty areas who bougiitt Victory Bonds have not yet decided to secure a new bond and are Classified tinder the column, "Might buy," A good tip for those in the first group would he, 'Art now on your good intentions," and for the second roup. 'End you indecision and buy. Yon ohvinnely stand to benefit your- self. since it Is the finest investment writable today, Tn ease of need you can turn it into cash at 100 rents on the dollar, plus interest, at any time,' filling our church membership." and emphasized our responsibility to 'give children and young people missionary education. The church is a fellowship—a gathering together of the children of God. Mrs. White New Car Ferry To Be Operated By C.N.R. IIE world's largest ice -break- ing car ferry, the Abegweit, built for the Canadian Govern- ment to be operated by the Canadian National Railways in the Prince Edward Island ser - vise between Cape Tormentine, N.B., and Port Borden, was launched recently at the Marino Industries shipbuilding yards at Sorel, Que. The new ferry, when completed, will be the most modern and powerful afloat, The Abegweit will be con- siderably larger than any ship previously built for this service 'being 872% feet long, 61 feet wide and having a 7,000 gross tonnage. A five -deck vessel of all welded steel plate construc- tion, she will accommodate 950 passengers, 60 automobiles and 19 railway cars. Her speed will be 16% knots. Eight 1,600 horsepower cliesel- electric generating units will power four motors, each operat- ing a propeller, two forward and two astern. The blades of the propellers, which are 18 feet in diameter, are made of a heavy thickness of cast nickel steel to withstand the additional heavy work as ico choppers. The four blades of each propeller are bolted on the hub and are ad- eustable in pitch, Earls can be individually replaced. Modern in every way the Abegweit wilt be completely equipped with radar and ship - to -shore telephone. The propul- sion motors will be directly operated by four engine -control- lers loeatediiti the pilot house. Telegraphing to the engine min will be a thing of the past for the new eat forry'a crew. The big, powerful, streamlined ear ferry,which will go i nto Canadian National Railways service when the work on its luxurious and up-to•date passen- ger accommodation is completed, is shown in the top photograph immediately after the launch- ing, In the lower picture, the Abegweit is seen Just before s1ie was lowered to the water. 6 AUCTION SALE OF FARM STOCK TTMPLEM'ENTS and Household Dffeets, Friday, Nov. 1st, al Lot 3.
