From there, be sure that you have enough circuits and plenty of outlets conveniently placed in every room. Remember that any one outlet can supply only a limited amount of power efficiently and safely. Remember, too, that you will want an ever-growing number of electrical conveniences in the years to come. The economical time to wire adequately is when you are building or making malor alterations.

EUROPEAN NEEDS BROUGHT HOME By Edna Jaques On June 20th 80,000 displaced per- sons of Halifax treked back to their homes, after a night and day of ten- sion. They had homes to go back to. During the 24-hour experience the Red , Cross supplied plentiful food, good, blankets to sleep under, and there was the warmth of a midsummer night. We are not making light of the ordeal these people went through, nor the tension and fear Of the hours, but it must surely bring home—with stark simplicity—the almoft six-year plight of the 240 million displaced persona in Europe. The homeless people of Holland, Belgium, France and Poland have few homes to go back to . even if they have strength to survive the homeward trek, Over a hundred thousand Polish. children have been brought in front concentration camps in Germany. Hundreds of thousands of Poles liber- ated from German prisons await help from abroad. No words can describe to what state these prisoners have been reduced by German criminals. Even after they get home it will be years before the fields are cleared of mines. According to the Freneh Minister of Reconstruction the Ger- mans left a hundred million mines Scattered over France, It will take fifty thousand men using twenty thou. sand detectors about ten years to re. move them. Sixty square miles of the richest agricultural land in little. Holland has Veen flooded. The con. tinertt of Europe has been bled white of, food, materials, 'manpower, and furnishings, Transportation has been utterly ruined, War ravaged Europe is depending on the United Nations for help, Canada is a vast agricultural c Okirt, try with a small population. Natural- ly the Old World looks to us fOr the help they desperately need, The ft- dotting of meat is one of the Waft through Which that help will be .given, T N countries ravaged by war, thousands,of families are without adequate clothing, blankets, footwear. They face bitter winter weather unprotected—unless every scrap of serviceable discarded clothing in our cup- boards is sent to them at onceI Turn out yoUr Clothes closets today.
