I ''• • . d A 44 4 4 4 4 A 4. 4 This is an invitation to our American friends. to visit Canada during the week June 28th to July 6th. It is not a casual courtesy, to "drop 'over and see us some time," but a definite invitation. The week chosen is "made-to-order" "for the visit, em- bracing as it does, Canada's "Dominion Day" and United States "Independence Day." The plan is being .carried' in practically all Ontario Weekly Newspapers, and their combined circulation in the United States, plus the many who will follow the JC' suggestion printed below and mail papers to American friends, will ensure visitors that they will meet old friends in their old home towns on the week specified. HON, MITCHELL F. HEPBURN The plan is by no means an "Old Horne Week," and no entertainment is planried. It is designed by Canadians to offset rumors prevalent in the, United, States regarding conditions in a Canada at war. The war has made no difference to American travel in Ontario. Entry to and exit from this premier province of the Dominion of Can- ada is as free as in peacetime. No° passports are required of United States citizens. The simplest form of identification suffices for bor- der -crossing purpose's. For proof of this—if proof be thi;ught neces- .saryL—one need- but consult any of the thousands upon thousands of delighted travellers who were our guests during 1940. Let none of the "scare rumors" of which you may have heard last season interfere with plans for future holidaying. , To C5ntario, with its 400,000 square miles of lakes, woods, streams, -scenic playgrounds and busy cities, its wonderful fishing and hunting, its unsurpassed Canadian highways system, its complete freedom from bridge tolls, amusement taxes, meals taxes, and local sales taxes, and its primary desire to be a good host to friendly, understanding neigh- bors, we bordiafiy invite you again this year. A far larger and more satisfying return on9 your American dollar than any mere premium— substantial as that premium may be—awaits your visit here. Cpme and see for yourselves what 'Ontario has to offer in vacation pleasure. I know you will not be_disappointed. M. F. HEPBURN, Premier, Province of Ontario. • This year, July,..4th falls on a Friday and pro- vides an excellent opportunity for a real week -end. All that poppycock about food arid:gasoline ration- ing, compulsory military service and the seizure of personal firearms and fishing tackle, is pure undilut- ed bunk. You never were as free in your life as you will be on your .next visit here. There Will be a wel- come on the mat, or a light in the window, depend- ing on the hour of your arrival. Wind up the gas buggy on that week -end and be here ; expect to meet old friends and enjoy yourself. • In the centre of this page, Hon. Mitchell F. Hep- burn, 'ourpremier, extends his invitation to Ameri- .can visitors, and adds his assurance that their visit will be as pleasant and trouble free as Canadian authorities can make it. We, of 'Seaforth, add our invitation to our Premier's. As citizens of Canada, we know conditions for what they are, and can baek our Premier's statement to the limit. 0 T. D.
