To do this, we must be strong not only in arms but also in our economy. And to keep our economy strong, we must do everything possible to fight rising prices! How can you help fight this inflation? One important way: by saving money! Nowadays, every dollar you spend for things you don't need helps to boost prices. But the money you save—in bank de- posits, savings bonds or life insurance —"votes" against the menace of inflation. Remember too — savings help you. And your life in.sur• ance savings help protect your family. So . to support Canada's defense efforts . .. to help yourself . . . save money every way you can now! • 1,151D BARGAINS USED TRUCKS = 1947 Mercury 1/2-ton Pickup - new tires 1945 3-ton Stake Chevrolet - ready for the road USED TRACTORS = = 1949 Ford - completely overhauled 1946 Massey 81 1941 Massey 101 Senior All above units completely overhauled - guaranteed f i HURON MOTORS FORD & MONARCH A.
