Do you remember
those ages, when your

formed — how you
followed examples, did
what (Alter people did—
your senior years at
school - your start in
business? Recall them
if you can. You gained
a knowledge you will
find useful when your
own boy starts out.
Give him the right start. Teach him the value of
personal appearance and st4f respect. Tell hint how
confidence may be gained merely from a lean shave—or,
better still, show him—and show hint ir a practical way.
Give him a
GILLETTE Safety Razor
and make his morning shave come easy. The old time
pulling and scraping is a thing of the past. The .
haphazard element is gone. There is no need for your
boy to know anything but the ease and comfort of the
Gillette shave. It is the razor of his time—that to which
he ia entitled—nothing more, nothing less.

decided that the annual meeting be held
some time in Ntvembee of which due
notice will be given, and some good out-
side speaker will be on hand to present
features of the work for little children.
Reports were made of cases dealt with
since last meeting, and some of these
were of such interest and even pathos as
would eurprise those not acquainted with
the work. It is hoped that the attend-
ance at the annum meeting will be such
as to add to the number of those who
will interest themselves in this good
work.

"I Hope
Every City and
District Will Win
My Flag"
When Edward, Prince of Wales -eager, bright
eyed, smiling aod sincere— arrived in Canada in
August, and when he voiced his great admiration of
the wonderful achievements of Canadians, on the •
fields of battle' and at homt, once again we were
thrilled with joyous pride.
He asked concerning Canada's reconstruction pro-
gramme, and when he was told of the Victory Loan
1919, he graciously consented to the use of his Coat
of Arms on a flag, which is to be the prize of honour
for districts achieving their quota in the loan.
In dedicating "The Prince's Flag" at Ottawa on
Labor Day, His Royal Highness said in part: —
"It is a great joy to me to be associated with the
loan, which is the bridge between war and peace, and
which is finishing off the job."
"I hope every city and district will win my flag.",
Striking, and beautiful in design, this flag will form
not only an unique memento of Victory Year, but a
lasting and outstanding souvenir of the visit of His
Royal Highness -a visit which will rernain as one of
the most memorable events in Canada's history.
The reproduction above shows the design of the
flag. The body is white. the edge red; in the upper
left hand corner is the Union Jack, and in the lower
right hand corner the Prince of Wales' Coat of Arms.
The flag is made in two sizes, 4 feet 6 inches by
9 feet' for small cities, towns and villages, and 7 feet
by 13 feet 6 inches for cities of over 10,000 population.
Canada has been divided into canvassing districts
by the Victory Loan Organization. Each city forms
one distritt. Other districts have been determined
according to population.
Each of these canvassing districts has been allotted
a certain amount in Victory Bonds to sell. To win
the Prince's Flag, therefore, a district has to sell its
allotment. That is the one and simple condition.
Anticipating that many districts will buy far
beyond their allotment. the organization deckled that
for each twenty-five per cent. excess of the quota one
Prince of Wales' Crest be awarded. Thus the workers
in a district doubling its quota win be the proud win-
ners of four small create for their Honour Flag. These
crests will be sewn to the flag. The Prince's Crest—
the three ostrich plumes --u shown at the top t the
cost of arms. "
To every organization with fifty or more emplz,yees.
where seventy-five per cent. of the enrollment invests
a total gif ten per cent. of the annual payroll an Victory
Bonds. • supplerrientary Prince of Wales Flag in
smaller form -48 inches by 34 inches -will
w The allotment for ea district has been carefuny
considered, and is based a conservative estimate
of the purchasing power o the district.
Your district can sell its a t and thus win the
Prince's Flag, provided each does his or her
share.
You will gladly do your part an encouragg your
neighbour to do his.
Remember YOUR purchase may be the one that
decides whether or not your district is to be the proud
possessor of the Prince's Flag.
The Prince's Motto is "I Serve"
Will You also Serve?

Polley of Ontario Hydro Commission
for Power Supplied in
Rural Districts.
At the last regular meeting or the
water and light commission. the follow
ing letter from the Provincial Hydro
C.ommisson was read: -
"Reptyi g to your letter of September
26th regarding supply of power to five men
on the Huron road, we would , state that
we are not in a position to advise ratea for
these men at the present time. The sup-
ply of power in rural districts ill receiving
the attention of our engineers and it has
been practice*, cided that an entire
arrived at whic will be uniform through -
tile
distrtct must established. ard rates
out that district. For this reason we
cannot submit a price to the first half•
dozen men on the road tinged on the cost
of supplying them only as undoubtedly
this cost would be less than an average
cost in the district. We would. therefore,
suggest that ynu advise these men that
power cannot be supplied until a general
survey of the district is made and an
estimate prepared for the district.'
