ONTARIO THE THIRD YEAR OF THE WAR calls for the organized co-opera- tion of every citizen of the Province of Ontario. ALL must help to hasten the day of final triumph. For the sake of those who have made the Great Sacrifice, and of those now overseas or in training, every citizen must give the best service possible. No one need feel "out of it" when the great day of Victory comes, but everyone must qualify now by sharing in the Sacrifices ';which the War demands. Suggestions for Organization In many Municipalities there are already active patriotic organizations, such as Recruiting, Red Cross, Soldiers' Aid and Patriotic Fund Com- mittees. In such cases, one of these, or, better still, a joint committee of these and the citizens generally, might undertake to co-operate with the'Central Committee at Toronto. Where there is no active representative organization, it is suggested that one be formed at the earliest moment. It should be non- partisan (in the broadest sense), and represent every interest affected by war conditions - What Organizations Should Do 1. Find more men for Overseas service. 2. Help in keeping our, munitions plants working to full capacity. Induce every possible worker, men and women, to nerve on the farm and in other essential industries. 4. Find money for the coming WAR LOAN and war funds. 5. in short, assist in the organization of Ontario's resources to meet war conditions and .after -war conditions. THRIFT' and ECONOMY, and a careful consideration and preparation for our problems are essential if we would meet the present and future needs.
