In November we Canadians are to
have a chance to convert all our
spare money, from $50 up, into Can-
adian Victory Loan bonds. What the
American journal says is true of the
American with an American bond, Is
doubly true of the Canadian with a
Canadian bond. No Canadian will
for an instant admit that there could
be any safer security than ode which
is guaranteed by the "bond" of the
Canaclia.n people backed by all -Call-
ada's wealth. And_ as for profit, it
-needs no argument that 54 percent is
mnuelt better than four percent -which
.our American contemporary calls
good.
Patriotism and good -business are
the two things that eoiumend the
purchase of Victory tear loan bonds
to each and every Canadian citizen.
The loan is not issued just for rich
men to subscribe to. Every house-
hold is asked to take' at least one
bond. Every household in Ibis dis-
trict should prepare -now to subscribe
for one. Every part of Canada will,
we understand, be expected to raise
its share of the Victory Loan, Each
district will he watched by its neigh-
bors, and in this friendly eompeti-,
tion the readers of this paper in this
district are not going to be left be-
hind. They will show that the en-
terprise, patriotism and good -bus-
iness judgment of our people is as
alert and vigorous as ever.

is -now on the news-stand, contains

Et. J. Fraser in this' issue ,describes
the "'Joys of the Winter Camp" and.
Charles Camsoll writes of the Wood

The following is a c1•fpping from

Mr, Irw'inlwill confine- himself largely
to the offices of the association in

from the Auburn Y.M.C.A. until .Jan-

On Guard at the Reads g
Gate
It is a fine,thing to guard our hom-
es against alien soldiers of whose
purposes we are all aware. But it
is also very important to guard them
against other .insidious foes that
creep, in under tare disguise of friend -
lo entertainers to plunder and de-
stroy the cherished ideals, the lofty,
standards, the clear views that have
given the home its character.
If you will familiarize your young
people with the best reading, they,
will not be likely to, crave what is
inferior and demoralizing. The Youth's
Companion is a powerful influence ill
awakening ,a taste for what is best in
reading. It is on guard at the read-
ing gate d Nothing cheap, mean or
hatefu1E passes it challenge. But
neither does the crabbed ,add dull and
austere. Cheery idealism : is The
Companion's countersign.. Put it on
