The regular meeting of Grand, Bend
Red Cross was held with Mr, Holt in
charge of proceedings, in which he
presented his report on the blood don-
ors clinic, which is expected t come
to Grand. Bend early in May. Anyone
wishing to donate blood to this worthy"
cause are asked to leave their names

not to sponsor any money -raising pro-
ject this month. A vote , of thanks
was extended to "the ladies Who gave
their time in the recent canvass for
funds. Grand Bend went over the
amount raised last year by something
like $115.00. The total amount raised'
this year was $426.00. Donations at
tile meeting included three crib quilts
from Mrs. Ezra Webb, and a number
of knitted afghan blocks from the
pupils of 'B' . Line SchoOl. Grand
Bend Home and School Club donated
a quilt, their fourth this winter. Met.
Ross Disjardine presented the month's
report which included one pair 26 -inch
ribbed seeks, 3 pairs 18 -inch ribbed
socks, 1 turtle -neck sweater, 6 pairs
mitts, 3 pairs gloves, 2 alternative
caps, 4 men's shirts, 2 boys' units, 1
pair boy's pants, 2 boys' 'sweaters, 1
child's.wool helmet, 5 quilts. The so-
cial part of the evening was under

From Prisoner of War in Germany
Following are extracts of a letter,
dated Feb. 41, 1943, received by Mr. -
and Mrs. W. H. Dalrymple, Bruce -
field, from their son, Corporal Robert
Dalrymple, a prisoner of war in Ger-
many, having been taken prisoner at
Dieppe: "Well, at last I have some,
news. I received the letter you wrote
one November 26th. It was exactly
two months getting here, and 300 Cig-
arettes the same day, and you can
tell Bob Dawson that I got 300 Buck-
inghams from him on February 1st, so
it isn't so bad when,' we have plenty
of smokes. If you: send a clothing
.pardel, I would like about 9 pounds
of • chocolate, a few razor blades- and
the other pounds in socks, for we are
pretty well off for clothing. Remem-
ber me to the- ones around the garage
and tell them I am fine." Miss Grace
Dalrymple, of Hensall, is a sister.

One slay we stoped in a sniall set-
tlement. Seeing •a young boy at the
side of the road, we asked him •the
name of the. place. He had evidently
been well trained, because he answer-
ed that he did not know. Some of
our, bus travel was done at night and
it always was amazing 'to us how the
bus driver could Ind his way so well
in the dark.
While most of the surface trans-
port in London -is by omnibus, there
are several street car lines, such as
the one on the Old Kent Road. These
look very strange to Canadian eyes as
they are double 'deck street cars, and
are operated with hand brakes. ,The
street cars in Blackpool, however,,are
very smart and modern.
In most cities taxies are not run-
ning, -or are very hard to get. In Lon-
don, however, they are fairly plenti-
ful. They looked very old fashioned
to us, but are efficient and can "turn
on a dime."
Bicycles are still .popular in Eng-
land. One Sunday afternoon we were
taken through Runnymede (where
the Magna. Charta was signed), and
we never saw so many people on
bicycles before in our lives. Some of
them were equipped with -sidecars
and could take out the„whole family,

In the first category would be beets,
radish, carrots, lettuce ask possibly,
sPinaeh. Theee things) are planted
early; take little room, and mature
quickly. Rows, of them should be
spaced about 18 inches to two feet
apart. Then in between put the larg-
er and later -maturing vegetables—
things like beaus, tomatoes, corn, pot-
atoes, cabbage and celery. The first
named will be ..usee and out of the
way ,by the time the larger and later
vegetables need all the room.
This kind of planting is knowri as
inter -cropping. It gives 'almost twice
the yield of the other kind of garden-
ing. To make this double use of the
soll, however, one must be sure to
cultivate thoroughly and, continuous-
ly, and also it is advisable to use
some fertilizer and water, if a hose is
°available.
Tender 'and Crisp
The real secret of tender, crisp
vegetables is quick and continuous
growth. If because" of neglect,
drought, or any other reason growth

Altogether, travel in Britain today
is difficult, but not impossible. Our
experience gave us an insight into the
way Britain's transportation problems
are being handled.

and more often in ,41 -re weather, and
they giVe their vegetables plenty_ of
room for development. Tins ineane
thet such things as carrots, radisb.
and heets# etc,, are thinned front two
to four ieches apart, and whep, this
space is filled one can start bee -vest -
leg 'every other plant, leaving the
rest for further developmint.
Another way the professionels, en,

eta.bles coming along in succession.
'Abey 'would not think Of planting all
their carrots, 'beets, ;beans or, any-
thing, else at the semis) time. They
spread eowings over several weeks. In
most parts of Canada one can go on
planting carrots, beans, beans and
other things right up to the middle of
July, thus ensuring a, continuous sup-
ply of the highest quality young Vege-
tables, until frost.
Give Them Room
Shrubs and perennial flowers, and
trees, are small when originally plant-
ed, but in, a few years it is surpris-
ing how much room they take up. The
average person plants them far too
close and in the case of trees and
shrubs, far too close to the house or
fences.
As a general rule, all these things
should have half as much room be-
tween as their mature height. This
means at least 'two feet apart for
peonies„ three and a half feet for the

Autotal plants are asir used perm-

established fact that nature uses the

kills weeds ani grass, providing ideal

ONTARIO has done well in her contribution
NoTf manpower and resources to the prosecu-
tion of the war. Ontario must do still more in
providing the sinews of war, by supporting the
Fourth Victory Loan to the limit of the ability
of every citizen. Our men in the fighting serv-
ices will give all they have. Our people on ,the
Home Front can do no less.
The Fourth Victory Loan is your opportun-
ity to join with the Navy, the Army and Air Force
in an all-out offensive. You cannot be there in
person, but your dollars can be there for you,
and will provide the materials and munitions so
vital to the success of the armed forces.
The Government of Ontario is backing the
Loan by the investment of $5,000,000 in the
new Victory Bonds. This is Ontario's official con-
tribution towards strengthening the hands of the
Dominion Government in its tremendous task
of financing the total war effort that is needed.
It is the tangible pledge of the Ontario Govern.
anent that it will co-operate to the fullest possible
extent with the Dominion Government in the
drive for final victory.
The action of the Government of Ontario is
designed to give practical leadership to all the
citizens of the Province, and should be an
example and an inspiration to our people to
accept this Fourth Victory Loan as a personal
challenge to do their part to "Back the Attack"
and hasten the day of Victory.
As the old Parish Rector said at the close of
the remarkabl% film, "Mrs. Miniver", "This is
the people's war! It is our war. We are the
fighters. Fight it, then. Fight it with all that is
in us."
We, the people of Ontario, must fight it with
our dollars. Your purchases of Victory Bonds
will help to send Ontario over the top again ' '
in suppOrt of our fighting men. They will do
their part when the time of attack comes. Wo
must do ours to -day.
