So let's all make sure our soldier's dollar when he gets back-will buy a dollar's worth of goods ! We can't give back to him his lost years or his lost youth.

Holiday spirit prevailed among the hundreds of families which turned out "en masse," from the tiny two-year-old tots to the grandfathers of 80/ Jim Hunter, well-known radio news commentator of Toronto, a Huron old boy, officially opened the field day which featured sports, ball games, a square dancing contest, exhibitions, picnic baskets and a dance in the evening. The Centralia R.C.A.F. kiltie band was in attendance. "We have all the- elements in this country to. turn either to ;Communism or Fascism," Mr. Hunter said, com- mentating on the political situation, and making a plea for a dynamic sup- port of democracy by all Canadians. "Democracy is -so far ahead of everything else that it isn't .innny.:" he claimed, upholding his statement by noting the role -of the democratic ' countries in the war. "We have got to develop a Canadian national spirit by which we will become hewn. We have got to become proud of our own. -country. and not be too ready to be- little," he said. The democratic spirit, through trial and error, will bring vs out on top, though admittedly it is the hardest to operate because everyone has to do his part, "Politicians, by and large, are fine people, and many good men will not enter politics because of the abuse they . are forced to take," Mr. Hunter stated, adding that "those who growl loudest about what the 'Government Aloes are those who don't take the trouble to exercise their franchise on election day," Cultural interests in small towns must be fostered, he said, and the edu- cational system revised. Speaking of his daughter's high school studies, he claimed that half the "stuff" she has to learn was "tommy-rot." The audi- ence applauded his statement, People are beginning to expect governments to be too paternal, he said, stating, "I believe that every- body should work. If we provide em- ployment, people should accept that employment, so they will develop in- itiative," Mr. Hunter was introduced by. Rus- sell Bolton,' vice-presdeint of the Hur- on Federation of Agriculture, .and thanked by T. B. Stuart, agriculture representative for Huron. Harry L, Sturdy, president, was chairman. He brought good wishes from Dr. Hobbs Taylor, who was unable to be present.

Golding, M.P., of Huron- Perth, congratulated the federation and the farmers on their fine work. during the war years. It is up to the Government to see that farmers get fair prices which means costs plus a little profit, lie said. It is a good thing for the federa- tions to carry on without politics, L. E. Cardiff, M.P. for North Huron said, John Hanna, M.L,A. of Huron- Bruce, stated that the people, wealth and leadership of Huron is envied in other provinces.

These are some of the things every man overseas has been fighting for. They won't be his, unless all of us make sure, when our fighting man comes back, his dollar will be worth a dollar. To protect his dollar, we must realize NOW the dangers of care- less, unnecessary buying. We must buy only what we need - never buy two where one will do! We must not evade rationing or price control, or deal in black markets. If we break the rules, our country -the country he fought for- will start on that uncontrollable Dosman, who wore a flowered silk jersey with corsage or red roses. The newlyweds left for Winnipeg the bride wearing a gold suit, with brown accessories and corsage of talis- man roses and baby's breath.
