It is your privilege to attend the church of your choice ... to worship as your conscience wills. A Nazi world means the end of the church you love. It means compulsion to accept a form of worship prescribed by political dictators. In the words of the Prime Minister, "When we speak of the preservation of democracy, of Christianity and of civili- zation, we use no idle words , ... the existence of all three is at stake," Freedom of worship is one of the price- less privileges that all Canadians enjoy. That dearly -bought right is in jeopardy. Therefore we must all unite in supporting Canada's war effort in order to preserve this Freedom.

The valuethe nation of those t o o who salve ships which would other- wise be lost cannot be measured by any known standard. Those men are worth far more than their weight in gold. During a recent visit to a naval base I happened to meet the Chief Salvage Officer of the area, whom 1'd known long before the war. He and itis men were then working for a pii- vete salvage firm; but when hostili- ties came they were taken over by the Admiralty, Nowadays they labour for the pub- lic good, and literally millions of pounds have been saved to the coun- try by their efforts. The wildest weather does not deter the salvors. Their services have been available day and night ever since the outbreak of war, Up till the end of last year they have dealt successfully with 66 ships that have gone ashore through old- inary hazards of navigation, or have been damaged by bombs, torpedoes, urines, fire or collision. I cannot describe a tenth of their successful efforts; but here are a few. A destroyer damaged in collision was brought into harbour with her upper deck within nine inches of the water. A patch measuring 29 feet by nineteen was fitted by divers under water, and the ship pumped dry and towed to a repair port. She is now back in service. A large merchant vessel was bombed and set on fire. Two salvage ships went out to sea and brought the fire partially under control before taking her into harbour. Then the fire broke out again,raging furiously for three days. So they took the dras- tic step of beaching the ship and flooding the after holds, which sue- cessfully extinguished the flames. The vessel was only two years old and had cost £780,000 to build. Her cargo was worth another £400,000. The total damage to ship and cargo did not exceed 2150,000 so her salvage represented a saving of over one million. But for the help given she must, have been lost, Another ship, severely damaged by enemy bombs, wag towed into har- bour with a heavy Hit to port and her deck awash. She was successful- ly beached, and divers set to Work to patch or plug all the stain inlets. The Secrets D Good Looks 5y ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 'My nails are brittle and break easily. How can I strengthen theist?" Soak the finger-tips in slightly heated olive oil for 10 to 15 minutes. This helps to promote growth. Then train back the cuticles. "I'm plagued with enlarged pores. Is there any remedy?" There is a remedy for this as for most troubles, but it takes time. Look to your diet, Avoid pastries and rich foods. Eat more green veg- etables and fruits. Cleanse skin thor- oughly, rinse in lukewarm water; never hot, Next rinse in cold, dry and pat on witch hazel. Be spar- ing in the use of creams, Use 1 tilight powder, applied lightly. "I stiffer from corns, How can I cure them?" Check on your footwear; you're Probably wearing shoes either too tight orr too small. Corns are caused by pressure or friction. Never hank at them with a knife or razor; use a' good two-way corn plaster instead. This instantly ends pain by relieving pressure, while the medicated pad loosens the corn so that it; comes right out—root and all, "My sister's hair is oily and mine is dry.

But for the salvage people she, too, must have been written off as a total loss. Two destroyers had the misfortune to run ashore on a rocky coast in thick weather at the top of high water spring tides. When the tide fell, both strips were high and dry, and in a very exposed and dangerous position. Experts said they were uusalvable; but not so the Chief Salvage Officer. He and his men rigged a trans- porter wire to the shore and removed over 800 tons weight from one of the ships—guns, torpedo -tubes, ammuni• - tion, stores, anything they could 1e - move. Other men set to work patch- ing the damaged hulls. In spite of the severe gales blowing directly on shore, and a heavy sea breaking over both vessels, they" were event- ually salved—the first in a fortnight. and the second, which was further up on the rocks, in three weeks longer. Once or twice, when she was prac- tically ready to be refloated, one strip had to be re -flooded to keep her in position. Ingenuity, dogged persistence, pat- ches, pumps and compressed air saved those two vessels, and enabled them to be towed away for repairs. Modern destroyers cost about £350,000 apiece, There 'is .nothing to which these men will not turn their hands. The more impossible a job seems, the more they seem to like it. These are the unknown men whose silent, dogged work is helping to foil the enemy—both those who direct operations and the men who quietly carry on with their work in the face of almost inconceivable risks and tif- flculties.
