Arman Newton, K.C., London, re- cruiting officer for the regiment, that this country was arming for a life rand death struggle. "If we are going to win we must fight now. If we wait too long it may be too late," the speaker said. It takes weeks and months, to train .-nen. An, untrained force would suf- fer casualties tenfold. The object of this campaign, is to equip two divi- sions. The let Division is• already dedicated and the second is 'ander way.- The men are being given the -very best of training.

Then the ocean was a barrier. Now it is because of the air- planes, This country cannot be de- fended by the United States and Can- ada combine& It is a serious time for Caneada. Thus North Ameriican continent is arming for a life and death struggle. Some say they will fight .if „Canada is attacked.
