Why Canada Needs
More Money
UP to date the war has cost Canada about -$700,000,000.
Canada has spent in Canada over $400,000,000 on her own account.
Canada has spent in Canada on behalf of Great Britain over $300,000,1)00.
What Canada spends for Great Britain is really loaned to Great Britain
and will be repaid or credited -to -Canada later on. -
Great Britain needs `so it uch ready
cash to finInce, her own a tures at
home for herself and for ourthat she
must buy on credit from Canadatand from
every otllkr • cr►utitt'y 'where " she can get
credit.
Of COUrse Great Britain's credit is so
good that other countries, in order to get her
trade, are quite is willing to give her credit
as we are in Canada.
C� wants to help Great Britain
*frit ori atm . Canada wants Britain's
trade but 'we are Canada and she is
Great Britain tri members of the same
great Empire, ki -of our kin, our mother -
laud.
For Canada it is both a filial and
patriu;ie duty to supply Great Britain's
war needs and remember, her needs are our
need:.. Also it is in Canada's self-interes'
to supply those needs and thus keep open
\aft market for our products.
* *
Now, Britain needs
cheese, cattle, hogs, and
turgid articles.
I Canada also needs many of these things
—between the two it amounts to more
than a million dollars a day in cash.
And the producers must be paid in
-cash•
Neither Canada nor Great Britain
could go 10 a Canadian farmer and buy
his wheat or his cattle on credit.
The farmer, and all other producers
might be ever so willing to give their
country credit but they could not do it
because the. have to pay cash for wages,
our wheat, our
many manufac-
for rent, materials, etc. They must be paid
in cash, or its equivalent.
So Canada says to Great Britain:—"I
will lend Iyoti the money so that you can
pay cash to Canada1s producers for what
you want.
"I will borrow this money from our
own people just as you borrow money from
,your people.
"I will also borrow from the people of
Canada money to pay cash for all the pro-
ducts that Canada, as well as Great Britain,
needs in Canada." -
That it Canada's practical, patriotic
part in helping to win the war.
Witho't this credit the Canadian pro-
ducer could not sell to Great Britain, and
without these Canadian products the war
would be prolonged.
So it is necessary for Canada to give
to Great Britain the credit in order that
Canada's own p.roicezt who need amarket,
will have one; and in order that Great
Britain which needs the products to win the
war, will Exit. them.
* * 4
Now how does Canada get the money
by. which both Canada and Britain can pay
cash for Canada's products?
By borrowing it from the people - of
Canada through the sale of Canada's
Victory Bonds to be offered in November.
That is why Canada's Victory Bonds
are offered to the people—to raise money
to help to finish the war. ,
"Canada must keep her shoulder to the
wheel even though it be a chariot of fire,"
and the way fdr Canada to keep her
shoulder to the wheel is by buying

SOLDIERS SAFE IN FRANCE.
Y. 111. C. A. aad Red Cross AN Doing
(feed Work.
In an article in The New York Times
Magazine written for the benefit of
American soldiers, Arthur Guy Empey,
author of "Over the Top." is quoted as
follows:
"There is some abominable German
propa$an,da," he said, striding do . n his
room ,n the hotel, "to the effect that
when the American soldier gets to France
he is thrown into evil associations. Noth-
ing." he declared with the utmost em-
phasis. "could be further from the truth.
In no place is there drawn a stricter line
for good conduct than in France. Sol-
i Biers in French villages are not allowed to
roam about at will. The questionable
ran population, what is more, is hee-
led in strictly patrolled quarters.
And any man, no matter what his rank,
who is found in the vicinity of these dis-
tricts without a written permit detailing
him to some specific duty there is arrested
and severely dealt with.
"I'd like to tell every mother in
America," he added, "that, no matter
what her boy is when he goes into the
war, he'll be a manlier man when he
comes out of it. He will be more tell -
reliant, more crurageteus; a great quality
of justice and fair play will have been in-
stilled into him. And the army is a great
leveler; the highbrow, the roughneck, the
wise and the otherwise are all on the
same plane, fighting for the same cause,
and all fighting for you. The coal
heave's sun and the millionaire's son,
marching side by side, sharing the same
life, are in just the same danger together;
a German bullet is no respecter of social
position.
"Then," he went on, with a change of
tone, and with admiration in his voice
that showed how he felt before he had
got to the end of his sentence, "there is
the Y. M. C. A.. You people in Amen
ought to do everything you can to help
the Y. M. C. A. It is the real home of
the American soldier in France. it can't
give him his loved ones, but it gives him
the comforts and interests and pleasures
of home. It brings horse to him there in
the mud of the trenches. And those Y.
M. C. A. men aren't drawing any wonder-
ful salaries, either; they are volunteers,
and they are in the midst of the mud and
the firing, as the soldiers are, to make
the soldier comfortable and help him
maintain the religion and the manliness
that he had when he went into the war.
The Y. M. C. A. doesn't make any dis-
tinction in any way—Protestant, Catho-
lic. Jew. atheist, everyone is welcome.
"Show me the soldier who makes a cis-,
paraging remark about the 1 . M. C. A.
or its work." he said, "and i11 show you
a soldier who is a detriment to the army,
who as constantly in trouble, and who
has lost the respect of officers and mates.
It's up to you people here at home to help
the 1 . M. C. A.
"And help the Red Cross. Everything
you do for the Red Cross helps us in this
war. Every bandage and sock helpe."
ANNOUNCEMENT.
The increased price of newspapers has
created a somewhat new situation in Can-
ada, in that the newspaper -buying pub-
lic are showing more discrimination and
care in selecting their daily reading mat-
ter than they formerly did when news.
papers were sold at the puce represented
by the lowest value$ coin in our currency,
namely, the one -cent piece.
In selecting a daily newspaper, the
readea tea 1y. desires to obtain one
that will give all the news at the earliest
possible minute, together with such inform.
anion as will be of value to his particular
business.
The premier industry in Canada i;
farming, coupled with the live -stock
trade. The Toronto World has long re-
c6gnized the need of accurately informing
the farmer and live stock dealer the daily
price quotations. As the result of this
attention The World's market prices arc
now accepted by both buyer and seller in
almost every market place in Ontario. in
fact, there are few farmers in the -county
of York but insist on first learning the
prices quoted in The World before offer-
ing any of their commodities for sale.
The other industry which has received
special attention in The World is the
mining business, and particularly that of
New Ontario. The enormous amount of
capital invested in this industry; the large.
number of men employed in it; the fact
that Ontario practically controls the nic-
kel supply of the world, renders it of vital
importance to the people of this great
Province.
The Toronto World has resident corre-
spondents in the principal mining centres,
and all information of value td i vestors
is promptly recorded.
in the news columns of The World will
be found a complete daily record of
events garnered by the leadirig news -
gathering agencies and special correspon-
dents. The war news and a daily war
summary are leading features of The Tor-
onto Daily World.
The World being a morning newspaper
is received on almost all rural routes on
day of publication, and can be obtained,
clubbed with The Signal, at 14.75.
The Toronto Sunday World (a week-
end illustrated newspaper) printed in
frau one to four colors, can also be ob-
tained clubbed with The Signal at $:3.25.
WAR DUTIES EASIER
When Tasks Are Universally Performed,
Says Canadian Business Man.
Ottawa. Oct. 20.-1t is easier to per-
fottn a patriotic duty when the duty is
universally recognised and performed.
This is the opinion of many keen observ-
ers who have recently come in contact
with war -time life in Great Britain and
France.
A celebrated Canadian business man,
whose services have been availed of sev-
eral times in recent years by the British
Government, said recently : '1 was great-
ly impressed both in France and Great
Britain with the cheerful endurance of
conditions such as we Canadians will not
have to live under to the end of the war.
It seemed to me that the public mind had
become made up and set with the concen-
trated will power of millions of people, so
that war duties did not produce the reac-
tions one might have expected from a
naturally peace -loving people.'
To explain the popular war service
which, in Great Britain and France, has
astonished the world, this gentleman
quotes ;the familiar phrase, "Everybody's
doing it."
