IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO SAY GOOD LUCK in the whole of the Dominion of Canada there is_ not to be found a man or woman who would not say "Good Luck" to-the boys as they leave home -to take up their training for service. They may be headed for the war on land, on or under the sea, or in the -air, but wherever they go and what- ever task they may be assigned, all say "Good Luck", But just the saying of "Good Luck" is not enough, not even a beginning. They are willing, and are risking their all that Freedom May be our lot. Their's is a sacrifice which we at home cannot hope to equal. We can however give them the best support possible and right now is our chance to "Back the Attack" by buying Victory Bonds, In a recent speech the Prime Min- ister in one dramatic paragraph told what is expected of the Canadian people in this campaign. He said, ."Of one thing we may be assured. In every effort our fighting men will not Mail us. Let us make very sure we do not failthem. For us at -home in Can- ada„ it is not enough to be proud of their achievements. • We must not permit the pride which all Ciinada feels in their gallant exploits to blind us to what their efforts cost in human life, in anguish of heart and mind. They are prepared to giVe their all. Let them see that we are prepared to do the same". 'The poem "Sacrifice" by G. R. Allerton which follows should be a good salesman for Victory Bonds. The name "Dieppe" resounds today; A stirring battle call Of men who counted not the cost, Of men who gave their The outmatched crew of the "Racoon"' Fought till their ship went down; So did our sons and brothers on The corvette "Charlottetown"! The grim destroyer "Ottawa" .C.3ave all she had to give; Her gallant skipper, half her crew They died that we might live! F,ach day adds to the mounting roll Of flying heroes, who Have met tlitir rendezvous with death That freedom shall win through! Oh, how can we, in safety here Count pennies or upbraid; What is our sacrifice compared With that these men have made? UM NEWS of the DISTRICT Subscribed Loan' Quota First Day Hanover set a record for Grey County, and possibly for the Domin- ion of Canada in raising over its $275,- 000 allocation in the present Victory Loan.

Farm House Burned Fire almost completely destroyed the two-storey red brick farm resi- dence_ of Hamilton Clutton, Blue Water highway, four miles north of Goderich. late Thursday, fternoon, The blaze started with a chimney fire and spread to the roof, which eventually fell in, Neighbors saved the furniture, and much of the interior woodwork on the ground floor was salvaged by willing hands. Chemical trucks from Goderich and Sky Harbor Airport answered the call and a bucket brig- ade worked hard- but -to little avail. A little over one year ago Mr. Chat- ton's barn was completely destroyed by fire. It has since been replaced by a steel barn. Kincardine Harbour Clear After several abortive attempts in which ice packs prevented it reaching open water beyond the harbor mouth, the tug "Onward" cleared Kincardine harbor Tuesday morning on its initial trip of time season and laid nets.

Rogers, in front of Fenton's garage. The little fellow ran out from behind a wagon, into the path of the car. Fortunately Mr, Rogers was driving slowly and managed to swerve his car, thus avoid- ing the wheels running over the' lad. Orval suffered bruises to his head, but no serious injury was inflicted,—Tara Leader, Fire Gutted Durham Home Fire almost completely destroyed "The Hedges," home of Col. F. F. Hunter here, the only part of the home to escape being the kitchen, which is built on the ground and is not con- nected with the cellar of the building.

It was only a minute or two after smoke was smelled that it started to roll out in huge billows.—Durham Chronicle. Dance Trouble At Tara In a determined effort to stamp out rowdyism at dances in Tara, the yil- lage constable laid two charges after a dance last week.
