It is the hope of the numerous groups and individuals that before that date the proposed new universal cal- endar will have been adopted by the principle nations of the world, The new World Calendar would div- ide the year into 12 months, as now, but rearrange the number of days in each month, so that each quarter of the year would have one month of 31 days and two months of 30 days each, That would leave one day over, which. would be called "Year Day" and would fall between the last day in De- cember, which would always be Satur- day, and the first day of January, which would always be Sunday. Business men like the idea gener- ally. The League of Nations has in- dorsed it. Several of the great relig- ious bodies, who would be affected be- cause it would make Easter fall on the same date each year, have approved it. We can see no reasonable ground for objecting, but there will be object - tions, of course, from the great mass of people who object to any change in anything they have become accustom- ed to. *. * * THEN AND NOW Fifteen years ago Canada was en- gaged in floating one of the most successful of its war loans. National enthusiasm was at its highest pitch. Business was booming and money was plentiful. Results exceeded the fond- est hopes, nearly 800,000 citizens sub- scribing for the 1919 Victory Loan Bonds. True, the income yield of 5.1. a was very attractive, but opinion then was ,that people subscribed more from their wholehearted desire to as- sist national reconstruction rather than because of the attractive rate of interest. Holders of these 1919 Victory Bonds, which will mature November 1st, are now being asked to convert them into bonds of the 1934 Refund- ing Loan. That the majority of hold- ers of 1919 Victory Bonds will avail themselves of this privilege there can 'be no doubt. They know what a safe and profitable investment they have bad and will surely wish to continue it. The record of Dominion of Canada Bonds during the past few years when investors have suffered loss of capital and distress of mind, demon- strates conclusively that there is no safer investment than Dominion of Canada Bonds. Security of principal is paramount in any investment. Con- sequently, when the unassailable se- •curity of Dominion of Canada Bonds is coupled with so desirable an income yield as is offered by the new Bonds, the response from those having bonds to convert as well as applications from new investors should be prompt and enthusiastic, • * * * OUR FALL FAIR The Directorsof the Turnberry Ag- ricultural Society have plans all com- plete for the 1Winghain Fall Fair that will be held. nest week, October 9 and 10th, Wingham'is the last fair of the season and its slogan is "You've Scen the Rest, Now See the.
