A tablet of gold, on which were carved the Ten Commandments, was presented to the Prince, the tablet being handed to him by Sylvia Lillian Cohen, the nine year-old daughter of Mr Lyon Cohen, The com- mandments were in Hebrew chapters, but the words "Presented to his Royal High- ness the Prince of Wales from the Jewish citizens of Montreal" were in English. TIRE WINGRAIR ADVAN431 Vic nilly WAN SUCCES' Credited Male's to Good Work of th Press Toronto. Ont Nov, 20, 1010. To the Editor of Advance: Dear Sir: When the Canadian Government re- quires money the people do not respond with a stone. In this year'sVictory Loan Campaign. the Finance Minister asked for $300 000,000, and the public has subserib- ed $073,000 000, When the returns are complete the total will probably exceed $700,000.000 Of this sum Toronto has raised $146,000,000, and Ontario $354, 000,000, or more than one dollar for every dollar subscribed by all the rest of Cana- ada. Every one of the units, into which the province was divided has exceeded the objective assigned to it. Some of them have subscribed their objective many times over. The character of this achievement is ' best realized when it is compared with what has been ace tmplished in other countries, The last Liberty Loan in the United States was a comparative fa lure The last British Loan was far from suc- cessful. The last two loans issued in Aus tralia were forced flotations. That is to say, the people were cmpelled to purchase according to their ability In more than doubly subscribing the Victory Loan 1019 our people have once more demonstrated the economic sound- ness and potential wealth of the nation, They have advertised the Dominion throughout the world as a country which readily raises great sums of money even under difficult post-war conditions. The press has had a great part in this year's overwhelming success. Sir Henry Drayton, Minister of Finance lays it first amongst the factors which made the' campaign such a complete triumph, Without the cordial co-operation of the newspapers throughout the length and breadth of the land the public could not have been aro4ised to the need and virtues of the loan. The editors of Ontario have done par- ticularly well, The sales organization is of the opinion that the service rendered by the press this year has been more gen- erous and more effective than that given in connection with any previous loan For this we have to thank the newspaper proprietors and editors all over the Prov- ince, Not once during` the campaign have. they fallen short of the demands made upon them They have responded to every fresh call from headquarters.

A. MMUS. • No Man, Under • Modern Condi- tiaras, Can Live Entirely Unto Himself. EACH DEPENDENT ON OTHERS Mien Who Does Not Aid In Buiidtng Up Community Can NotrExpect ' to Have Prosperity Himself. (Copyright,) 1'nero was a time in the world when d man could do pretty much as he pleased. What one man did was of Uttlle concern to anyone else, for It had little effect on anyone else. Those days are gone, however, and they never will return, Today, no man can live entirely unto himself. Life is a complicated affair under modern eon- ditions. No one man in any commun- ity is entirely independent of all others in that community. Organized society, in the form of governments, national, state. and Iocal, leave recognized the new conditions and (lave decreed that every man must Observe Certain rules in his relations with his fellow men. He trust not do certain things that would endanger the health of other people in his commun- ity. He must not do such things as would disturb tate peace and quiet of his neighborhood, Ile must remember that he o Wee a duty .to his community. Not Question of Right. A man may say that he has the right to spend Itis money where he pleases; that no one can stop him if he wants to buy his groceries, his clothes and his furniture in some 'city miles away from where he earns the money to pay for them. 1: Ie is right. There is no law to prevent him from doing so, len. less it le the law of self-preservation, The man who has the right to send his money away to some distant city in - steed of spending it at home, also leas the right to send his ehiidreu to that eity to be • educated 10 the echooie, wheel' his money helps to support, hut he doesn't exercise that right. Ile sends his children to the (veal schools, the maintenance oi` whish is made pore eible's by the men who spend their money at home. Life in any eommnnity today is a glue -and -take proposition, A man can not take evt'rything and give nothing and flet away with It for any great length of time, He can not take his Living frotri .sl community road give nothing lock to help the other fellow tusks a living. If he cults off the otbet- 'fellow's living, he is bound eventually to cut off his own, for unless the other fellow has money to buy his labor or his goods he cannot make a living himself. You may say that what you buy, doesn't amount to much and the money that you send away to the mail order houses in other cities can not have any great effect upon the general business conditions in your town. Maybe it doesn't amount to much and maybe It won't have any great effect upon the community's prosperity in itself, but what will be the result if every person in 'the community, or half of them, or a tenth of them, take the same view of the matter. Your business, in it- self, may not amount to much, but taken together with the business of a hundred others in the community, it amounts to a great deal. It amottntp to the difference between a prosper - mos community and a "dead" one. It amends to the difference, in the end,. between good times and bard tinges for yourself and your own family. If you lived en a desert isle, it would make no difference where you sent your money, because It would make no dif. ference whether you had any money art all or net. But you are not living open a desert isle. You are living In a modern community. To do everything possible to build up that community ie not only a duty which you owe to the community, but—more important art[U --it is a duty which you awe to your kelt. Taxes Will bureau", You have children to educate. You want your community to have good schools so that your children may have the same advantages that the children in the big city have, It you live on a farm you need good roads over whish t� haul your products to market. You tray say that you pay your share of the taxes out of which the school- houses are built and the roads eon- structed. Maybe you do flay your share, in proportion to the value of your world's goods, but where is tete other fellow to get''the money to pay his share of the taxes if, after you pay your taxes, you send the remainder of your motley to some other community te help build their schools and con- struct their roads. The merchants of any community pay a very consider- able part of the taxes collected In that community, (4o to the tax books and you will find this to be the case. When the business of the merchant falls oft anti he earrien smaller stocks and has less money in the bank, he pays small- er taxes, and es the amount he pays In ferrel decreases, the amount you pay must increase if the schools ars t=) be maintained and till roads kept It may be a man'ti awn buelnaes if a:\ wants to trend his money to help up tate big elates where the mail ' r houses' flrnith, but it's poor 'plot for hltutltelf as well alt for t ryherrly else !m the eoromttlaltlr 141 .luck las lire*.

Wingham, - Ontario llorecasts Real Hard Winter Peter McArthur writes: In spite of the weather-wise who have predicted an open winter there are others who ho'd to the view that we're to have a hard winter so whatever happens,someone is bound to be right, Those who hold the hard wint- er view have called my attention to the fact that there is a large crop of beech nuts this year and that other nuts are also plentiful. That the latter is the case I have every reason to believe. Ever since the nutting day whenever I want a boy to hunt up the monkey wrench 9r to ate tend to some needful chore I have to pry him lose from a hickory nut into which he is industriously delving with a hairpin. Also, I find broken shells most every- where—even on chairs after I have sat on them. I quite believe the story that hickory nuts are plentiful, And there is another sign of hard winter that I offer for what it is worth. I do this with some hesitation, for it is a personal observation and does not belong to folklore. I have noticed that housewives of my acquaint- ance put up unusually large supplies of preserves, in spite of the sugar shortage. That must foreshadow a hard winter..

It is not low-priced because it is made to stand hard work. When a farmer looks it over- he knows he's looking at a real machine. When he tries it out on his farm he learns that what he expected of it is true. It is economical—uses less fuel ---uses less oil —gets through the work without breakdowns. We want farmers to see the Moline, —just to look it over as a fine machine. Here's a tractor you couple direct to the plow or harrow, You drive it from the seat of the implement.
