Red Cross Notes
Have you noticed recently how of -
ten there is a story in our newspapers
in which a soldier tells what the Red
Cross meant to him viten he was a
prisoner• of war. The success of the
Allies in North Africa has freed many
who had been captured by Rommel
and his gang and invariably the first
word they speak in their new found
freedom is a word of praise and
thanks to the Red Cross. And in the
long run that is just a word of praise
and thanks -to you for what you gave
to the- Red Cross last year and the
year before. You have helped the so-
ciety to ship 2;000,000 • (yes, two mil-
lion) parcels to the men who have
been taken- prisoners. Each parcel
was worth $2.50 when it left Canada,
but there is no way of estimating
what `lit was worth in the way of
health, happiness, comfort and morale
when it landed in the outstretched
0. Goodwin rendered an appropriate
duet, "There is a Land That is Fairer
Than Day." Following the service
the cortege proceeded to Hensall Un-
ion Cemetery where interment took
place. The bearers were Albert Tra-
quair and son, Donald, of Exeter, Al-
vin Moir, Exeter; Melville Traquair
and son, Jack, and George Moir, Hen -
sell. It was Miss Moir's last wish
that no floral tributes be sent to her
funeral owing to the, great need of
money for war purposes.

Gasoline Rationing Man Goes into E -;; act
N MARCH 31 the present gasoline
ration licenses and coupons will ex-
pire, and no ga.soline,will be sold except upon
.the presentation of a 1943-1944 ration book.
In his own interests, every vehicle owner is
asked to apply at once for a new gasoline
license and ration coupon book for each of
his vehicles. f
Under the new system, effective April 1, all
commercial vehicles will be rationed. All non-
commercial vehicles will be granted a basic
"AA" gasoline license and• ration coupon
book, containing 40 coupons for a passenger
car, or 16 for a motorcycle. Owners of non-
commercial vehicles eligible for a special
category, who can prove their need, will
-be granted an extra vocational allowance,
fixed in advance for the year ending
March 31, 1944.
The extra allowance for a special category
car will be tailored to meet individual needs.
In 'determining this allowance the pre-
'vious category • and mileage of the car will
not be considered. Instead the vocational
allowance will be based on -two factors:
(1) The gravity of the oil shortage with which
Canada is faced, and (2) the importance of
the vehicle to its owner in- a country at war.
•
The extra vocational coupons will be • is'sned
in ` books labelled "Special", and each such
'book will contain not more than 60 coupons.
Only one "Special" book, or portion of such
book, will be issued at a time,,and hence the
case history of each special category applicnut
will be under constant review.
' Under provisions of the rationing order,
the Oil Controller will have the right to re-
fuse any application for a special category, or
to suspend any ration book for an infraction '
of the regulations. •-
Every' Motor vehicle, other than a motor-
cycles .must- bear on its windshield.a sticker
indicating its category. After April 1, service
station attendants will not be permitted to
serve gasoline to a car which, does not bear'
the sticker which corresponds to the ration
5ook submitted at the time of the purchase.
To obtain a gasoline license and ration
coupon book, secure an application form at
your nearest. Post Office. Study the form and
follow the instructions contained therein.
When you receive your ration' coupon book,
guard it carefully. • It may not be replaced if,
because of your negligence, it is lost or
stolen. Do not leave it in your car; keep it
on your person at all times.
