COLQUHOTJN Editor Plant Manager THURSDAY, JUNE 24, 9948 SUPPORT THE NAVY LEAGUE TAG DAY The work ,that the Navy League of Canada is doing among merchant seamen conies- into sharper focus in „ view of world conditions as they exist today. In its clubs and hostels on both the east and west coasts, the Navy League was helpful .to more than six hundred thousand ' merchant seamen in the twelae months of 4947, providing domelike surroundings, including meals, sleeping accommoda- tion and entertainment. The Ladies' Auxiliaries of the Navy League of Canada visit the sick and injured seamen in the hospitals and sick bays on our coasts, bringing to ahem encouragement and supplying them with many extra comforts. This kindly service is also carried on in many inland cities among the men of the navy and merchant navy who are confined in hospitals and convalescent homes. , . In order to carry on its many activities on behalf of the men of the sea and the youth of Canada, the Navy League depends upon its members and well-wishers for the necessary financial support. Part of this support comes from the tag days that are held by volunteers in• each community. A 'gen- erous response from the citizens of this community will help the Navy League to maintain its services. The Clinton Tag Day will be held on Saturday next, June 26, under the sponsorship of the Ladies' Auxiliary of Clinton Branch of the Canadian Legion, Mrs. Mex' Haddy, president. •" EDITORIAL COMMENT "'...

You can make your sandwi- ches in advance provided you wrap them in waxed or cellophane paper, then in a damp towel and store them in the refrigerator. A covered vegetable crisper. (the re- tangular container that is part of the equipment of most electric re- frigerators) is excellent for storing sandwiches until serving time. 2. If your sandwiches are of the meat, fish or egg Variety, be sure to keep the fillings ip the refrig- erator until just before the sand- wiches are made. 3, If you have stored them in a cold place and the towel has not. been sufficiently damp the bread may be freshened by pbacing .a steaming hot damp cloth over them, 4.

As I was examining this na- tural caricature, a pack of huge ravenous dogs charged out of the very long weeds and grass that grow along the street, trampled me and my garden, and bore off my strange potato, which I would. otherwise present for display ire your window. Mr. Editor, I urge that you use your influence to have this men- ace removed. Those weeds and grass must be cut. Sincerely, (Signed)—GAR DENNER Clinton, Tune 17, 1948. - ---o--- — Huron Old Boys Hold Fine Picnic Huron Old Boys Association of Toronto held their annual picnic at High Park, Toronto, on Fri- day, June 18.
