The more money that is available in the hands of our government, the greater will be the exhiliration in our war pro- gram and the sooner will dawn the day of Victory. Let us then keep up the good work until the last day of this campaign, when, I believe, every Municipality will have raised its quota and gone over the top. I appeal to all citizens of Huron county to stop and consider if each and every one has done his or her best so that we can prove to our boys in the army, air force and the navy that we at home are backing them up by supplyingthem with the necess- ary war equipment to beat off the enemy so that Canada will be spared the fate that has befallen so many other nations.

But if you are trying to reach a key war centre, chances are that you may encounter some delay. Telephone routes to such areas are the most congested in Canada. Naturally, we would build more lines if we could. But the materials that go into telephone equipment have been drafted for direct war purposes. We mut get along with what we have. And we can—provided you keep your long distance calls brief and make them, whenever possible, in off-peak hours . . . provided above all, that you avoid all unnecessary calls over routes which your experience shows to 'be congested with war calls.
