Perhaps you do not even know’the work this great organ­ ization undertakes, yet everything it does is of vital concern to every Can­ adian. Next week the Red Cross in Wing­ ham begins a canvass for funds, to be used for war service work. In the last war the Red Cross in Canada raised $9,073,485, and sent overseas 841,325 cases of goods and supplies, which went to the Allies. The work of the Canadian Red Cross include building and aquipping hospitals, additions to Canadian mili­ tary hospitals in England and France,1 establishment of rest homes for nurs-' es, supplying convoys of ambulances and general assistance to Canadian soldiers in service overseas. This gigantic task was made poss­ ible by contributions to the Red Cross. To date the task in this war is not so great, but there are indica­ tions it will assume proportions as large, if not larger, than those under­ taken from 1914 to 1919. The work cannot be undertaken too goon, which "is one reason a drive is now being made by Wingham Red Cross committee. In addition to wartime work, the Red Cross also carries out an exten­ sive program of activities in Canada, A si risk such, but we have had an excellent fall. Mr. Wilson Nicholson gathered a beautiful bouquet of lilacs last week from near his lime-kiln and took them home to his wife, who promptly let us know about it. It is truly wonder­ ful growth for so late in the season. —Teeswater News. > ■ HOLDS YOU BACK WINGHAM ADVANCE-TIMES Thursday, November 9, 1939 ate approved of this change in the neutrality law after a long debate but Congress made comparatively short work of adopting the idea. President Roosevelt signed the bill on Saturday and at once the orders that were giv­ en before the war and which had been manufactured, were shipped to seaports. Work on other-orders was started at onpe. Britain and France have plans ready to purchase war ne­ cessities on a large scale in the Unit­ ed States. The repeal of the arms em­ bargo will be of great value to the allies but it is very doubtful if it will help the other warring nations as they will not be able to transport the goods from the United States to their home ports due to the British and French blockade. Britain and France have the advantage in this respect but Germany will most likely intensify her submarine campaign to offset this advantage. Conservative political pat- k. 1 including disaster, relief and highway first air posts. The Red Cross group in Wingham is sure that a generous response will be made in 1939 as it was in the year of the great war. Funds are urgently needed and no donation is too small, or too large, for this magnificent hu­ mane enterprise.* * * STOP PATRONAGE Hon. Dr. Manion, leader, has stated that ronage exists in the issuing of war contracts. If Dr. Manion knows' of such cases he should at once take up the offer of Premier King to have the charges probed. Very few people will doubt that Dr. Manion has made these charges in all sincerity and at the same time they, no doubt, feel he should sub­ stantiate them., Premier King wast­ ed no time after Dr, Manion’s state­ ment in offering a probe if specifice charges were made. It is now up to Dr. Manion to re­ lease the information which caused him to make this outburst. When he . does it is up to Mr. King to have an impartial probe. The public will then judge and they are not in the mood to be fooled. They want the facts. It will be a difficult job to keep patronage out of things during the war. Mr. King will, no doubt, do his best, but the great amount of business that Ottawa will carry on daring the war cannot be watched by any one man. He of needs must depend on others. That is why appointments should be made most carefully. * * * * ARMS EMBARGO REPEAL The cash and carry plan of selling arms to warring nations by the Unit­ ed States is now operative.'

Hydro Lights Confused Geese This being the season when wild geese are winging their way from Northern. Canada to the sunny climes of the Southern States, operators at the Hanover hydro plant have again found that the geese are confused by the well-lighted grounds here, a con­ dition made more noticeable this year 'by the fact that powerful search lights have been installed in order to help guard the plant against sabotage. The other night, a flock of about a hundred geese, flying over the town, was so confused that they came down and were flying in and out among the lights and sqawking loudly until the guards and operators saw their plight and turned off the lights, whereupon the geese recovered their bearings, went up to a much higher altitude and continued their migration to south.—Hanover Post. dedSur^u F^ud tht 4 dstioW.
