Not Over Yet
Germany is engaged in an all out
offensive against the British Isles.
116 date, if that is the best Germany
can do, it is .quite evident that Ger-
many's best is not good enough to
neither Iay England in waste, or to
Conquer the spirit of the ° British
people.
But the war is not over yet, and
there is yery grave doubt that Ger-
many has made her greatest effort.
Certainly there is no need for pes-
simism, but at the same " time it
might be well to remind the people,
particularly the people of Canada,
that the war . has not yet been wan,
and ' that wishful thinking is not
likely te, accomplish that desired
end.
Too. much is being written and
certainly too flinch is being heard
over the radio to the effect that Ger-
many must win a decisive victory
within the next few weeks, .or she
is a beaten nation and will suddenly
collapse like a pricked balloon.
Nothing could be further from the
truth. Whatever Germany's resourc-
es were at the beginning of the war,
there can be no gainsaying the fact
that she has doubled and tripled
those resources by, her conquests in
Europe during the past year. -
• All that Norway, Denmark, Holr
land, Belgium, France and even
Rumania possess are now in Ger-
many's hands. All the manufactures,
food and other war materials of. ev-
ery; kind in these countries are now
at the disposal of -Germany, and Mr.
Hitler is not the kind of person who
would refrain from taking full ad-
vantage of that fact.
There may be hard times, distress
and even famine ahead for the peo-
ple of these countries, but any of
these things, particularly famine,
are still a long way off from the
German people themselves. Too
many people failto recognize those.
things as facts. Too ready to listen,
to tales of unrest in Germany. There
is no unrest in Germany. Too ready
to believe tales about boys of fifteen
and even girls being used as pilots
in aircraft now bombing Britain.
There are no fifteen -year-old pilots
or girl pilots either being used by
Cermany over England or anywhere
else. If all -these things were true, or
even it there was any semblance of
truth in them, Britain would not now
be up against what she is up against.
As a matter of fact, the German air-
men _captured in Britain are net
starved, .drugged boys, but men av-
eraging twenty-six, and every one
of them are described' as "tough and'
truculent."
We had better face these facts. We
all want Germany to be beaten, and
beaten as quickly -as possible. The
victory, however, in all probability,
will be caused as much by the British
blockade ; as by force of arms. But
their collapse through famine is still
a long way off. Not until Germany
has robbed all Europe of cattle, corn
and oil, will she begin to feel the
strain.
We have to remember too, that the
German people are used to tighten-
ng their belt; they are fanatical,
'and they have always followed their.
leaders like 'sheep. Consequently, we
must not only prepare for the worst,
but for a 'long war. •
,• To date Britain, beyond a doubt,
has more than held her own, not on-
ly, in the air but lin every other
branch of the service. No• people of
any ,nation have ever undergone a
more ygruetling test r1 'the people

A, Dangerous Time
We are reminded by tb.e ever in-
creasing number of barn fires a e -
ported in the daily papers, that this
is a 'dangerous time on the farm.
T reshing operations are ' wide-
spread and although there are few-
er
ewer barn threshings than there used
to be,- since stook threshing became`
so popular, there is always danger
where there is . -a threshing set ;up.
That, however, is only one of the
dangers. Spontaneous combustion,
and there is such a thing, contrary
to a widely held belief, is another.
More dangerous, perhaps, this
year than for' a number of seasons
past. There has been so much rain
for many weeks past that harvest
operations have been at a standstill.
Acres upon acres of crop are •sti11 in
the fields. Much of this grain will
not be worth threshing, but most of
it will, sooner or later, be hauled. to
the barn for feed of one kind or an' -
other'.
Much of it will be improperly ,cur-
ed and unless extra attention is paid
to it after it reaches the barn, there
Will always be the ever-present dan-
ger of combustion.
Over the . week -end the largest
barn in the Elora district is report-
ed to have gone up in flames with all
the year's crop, much machinery and
some livestock. The cause was spon-
taneous combustion.
The farmer had left the barn but
a few minutes before, when all ap-
peared to be well. He had only
reached hi . house, however, when he
heard an explosion, and when he
reached the door, flames were. shoot- .
ing out of the - barn roof at every
corner.,
Combustion is just as real a' dan-
ger as gasoline in a barn, but, unfonr
tunately far too many farmers fail
to realize this fact. Butwhether a
farmer does -or not, it would be just
as well to take a little extra precau-
tion this year at this dangerous time.
• -
Quite A Mistake
-
The Internal Revenue Collector at
New Orleans last week received , a
cheque for $8,000,801.16 from a lo-
cal man in payment of his quarterly
income tax.
The collector gazed at the cheque
for some time, and then concluded
that it was a mistake. And quite a
mistake this ane was; in fact, an
eight million dollar slip.
The cheque should have read
$800.16, and, consequently, the col-
lector returned the cheque, blaming
the error on a cheque -writing " ma
chine.
So far our cheque -writing machine
has never. madea mistake like that,
for income tax purposes; or any
other!
•,.
Too Energetic
- We are always interested in the
doings ,of others. Particularly of
other publishers. We like to know
what they do andhow they do it.
But' one can be too energetic in
one's; doing; and that, we think, re-
presents the case of Mr. 'John J.
Barry. of Louisville, Kentucky.
Mr. Barry is the publisher of the
Kentucky Irish -American, and if he
is as energetic in the gffice as he is
out. of it, we would say he runs a
fighting paper.
Four times each working day for
the past thirty-five ye'ars,gMr. Barry
has walked the two ,miles 'between
his home and office, and during that
time he figures he has walked more
than eighty-five thousand miles back
d forth:
Personally, we don't get out of the
ofke foul times every working day,
and if we had to walk two miles we
wouldn't care very much if we got
out at all or not.
