Rev. Mr. Macfarlane, of Bayfield, will
conduct the services on Sunday.
BUY VICTORY BONDS—Because Canada must raise the stoney to carry out iter
obligations to her army,
BUY VICTORY BONDS—Because Canada must raise the money if she is to ex-
tend credit to Britain and secure further orders for Canadian products.
BUY VICTORY BONDS—Because they contbine the three factors that consti-
tute an ideal investment --absolute security, good income yield, and
ready saleability.

hi deciding how many Victory Bonds you wi;l buy; remember -
this iznpertaot point:—you•' as a not giving—yots are• lending to
your country! .
You are leading at a good rate of interest.
You are lending ora the highestsecurity.
You are lending=to maintain your own and your country's pros-
perity.
1n your own personal interest you should' make strenuous
efforts to buy as many Victory Bonds as you possibly can.
You couldn't put your money in a better place.
You want to save money—everybody does.
It is the only way to get ahead.
And Canada needs to borrow your money to bridge the gap
from War to Peace. .
It's your duty to lend.
Take the proper view of this Victory Loan.
Say to yourself—"I am going to buy all the Victory Bonds I
can pay for now and in the next ten months."
What if it is an Wort to pay for them.
Look ahead a little.
Think of what you will own when your Victory Bonds are final-
ly paid for.
Every cent you pay on your Victory Bonds you LEND to your
country—you save! ,
Remember that, and

DR, GUEST BACK
FROM INDIA
Former Clinton Lady Recounts Six
Years' Experiences in Asia and in
War Zone,
The Toronto Star of Wednesday has
the following reference to Dr. Guest,
a former Clinton young lady, who has
Just returned from India:—
Six busy, useful years of service in
India was the story told of by Dr. Edna
Guest of the Medical Alumnae of Tor-
onto 1Mb ersits, at a meeting in Sher -
bourne House 'Club Tuesday afternoon.
Dr. Guest referred to the changes
that had taken place in the medical
world, of 'Toronto dsring her absence,
foremost among which were the es-
tablishment of the Woolen's College
hospital on Rusholnte road, and the
large increase in the number of Tor-
onto women who had taken up the
practice of surgery.
As a medical officer during the
war, Dr. Guest served in England,
France and Corsica. She paid a glow-•
tag tribute to the work of the Red
Cross in supplying comforts and little
luxuries for the wounded men. While
at the Northamptonshire Military Hos-
pital, she said, the Wren were able to
have fresh fruits and any other luxur-
aen ordered fur then solely through the
iustrumenLtllay of the Red Cross. Dr.
Guest had a most absorbing tale to tell
of the stress of work under the most
trying conditions of the spring of 1915
in France.
Among her India experiences one of
the mn,1 interesting was a visit paid to
the wife of a ;Maharajah in his own
princely palace. The event was a most
unrarallele,: one. Dr. Guest spent
some time In the Ludhiana Medical,
College, India.
