Canada expects every taxpayer to cheerfully shoulder the burden of ad- ded taxes imposed by the government to save the World from Hitlerism. Canada expects every business man to refrain from profiteering or any transaction intended for personal ag- grandisement from the war situation. Canada expects every citizen to make an equal sacrifice without com- plaining. Canada expects that its citizens will refrain from any disloyal and unpatriotic utterances throughout the War. Canada expects of its politicians and statesmen a truce from political warfare and an armistice on partis- anship, for the weal of all. Canada expects the men and °wom-. en of this country to leave the run- ning of the war to those best qual- ified to do it. Canada does not want, or need, armchair generals. --. Canada expects tolerance towards those of our citizens who were form- erly citizens of countries with whom were as delighted with Hugh Bart- we are now at war. If they are lett's "goon" stories as are the most loyal Canadians they are entitled to ardent Happy Gang fans who tune in each week day at 1.00 p.m. EST to CBC stations for this musical jamboree. Listeners frequently hear a radio announcer closing his program with the words "We hope you have enjoy- ed listening to this program as much as we have enjoyed presenting it." Not always convlincing, says CBC's Frank Willis, but in the case of his program "Nocturne", heard Sundays at 10,30 pmni, EST from Toronto, it is apt. Poetry is Mr. Willies great passions with sailing and travelling, and he says that no man can have a better companion in lonely places than a book of verses. This is one program which is all fun and no work for the producer. 3ohnu Adaekin, who has performed for years as a concert artist, and who has produced many of the out- standing musical broadcasts on the Canadian air during the past five years from CBC's Toronto studios, when we think that the community had "mike fright the other day.

Mr,'Adaskin knows nearly every microphone by equal rights. Canada expects of citizens of for- eign oreign birth, loyalty- and devotion to the country which has given them haven and which provides them with a living. Canada expects the men of this country to heed the call to active Service as and when their services are required. Canada expects every man, woman, boy and girl who is able to render faithful and willing service in the interest of the survival of our great democratic institutions. Canada expects the cheers that greeted our King and Queen last summer to be now transformed into loyal service to those ideals which the royal family symbolizes. Canada, in short, expects, as Lord Nelson expected, that every mar, will do his duty. -Gad Save the King? WE APPRECIATE YOUR.

Jantzen of Kitchener told the North American Conference of the Mennonite Brethren Church at Corn, Oklaholna, that Canada "in wartime is 10 times preferable to Russia under so-called conditions of peace," Mr. Jantzen, one of six dele- gates attending who migrated to Canada from Russia during the last 15 years, continued: "Individualism in which the Mennonites believia per- haps as strongly as any people in the world, is ruthlessly destroyed in Russia. The children of the Mennon- ites remaining in Russia are being systematically turned into atheists by the Stalin government" Another member of the group, from Canada, Rev. H. P. Toews of Arnaud, Man., said "the popular theory that a .de- mocracy must' instantly be converted into an Man -bound dictatorship when war is declared is bunk," WORK TO CONSERVE HUNGARY'S METALS The Hungarian Government posted signe Oct. 23 with pictures of an old tooth paste tube, a broken watch, spring, a discarded sardine can and a cracked flywheel in a campaign far conservation of 'Hungary's scant supplies of metal. Depots • are being established throughout the Nation where the Government will buy junk metal; which would be needed urgently in the event of wax. New regulations require a govern- ment overnmenti permit even for the purchase of a one -foot piece, of pipe, BOMBED BRITISH BRIDGES Can Now Be Built Up Like Meccano British engineers have evolved a new kind of emergency bridge by which vital communications can be rapidly restored if enemy aircraft- There is no need for bunting ac - BE CHARITABLE "And now I hope you realize," said the candidate, "that my opponent hasn't a leg to stand on." "Then Why don't you give him the seat?" TAKE NO CHANCES manages t o damage or destroy bridges on the trunk roads of Eng- land, Scotland or Wales. The bridges are constructed of gal- vanised steel. They have only nine standardised unit parts held together with hundreds of nuts and bolts on the principle made familiar by Mec- cano, the famous constructional toy known to children all the world. Entire bridgespans up to 200 feet long and capable of bearing the heav- iest real' slehieles can be erected ten times as quickly as the bridges they will replace. Groups` of selected workmen em- ployed :by .firms of •contractors all over the country have been specially trained in the building of these emer- gency bridges. The country is divided into eight Ministry of Transport districts, each in charge of a divisional engineer.. Immediately damage to a road -bridge is reported in .his district, the engine- er calls up the nearest contraetors who rush their trained men to the scene. At strategic points in each district are carefully hidden depots where all steel parts and other :equipment necessary for making new bridges or repairing damaged ones are lying in readiness for the emergney. L. cidents, if ordinary, common-sense precautions are taken. If reiterating these simple rules again prevents even a single accident, then they are indeed worth repeating. For safety, follow , these simple rules: Treat e4ery gun as if it were .load- ed. Carry only empty guns, taken down or with the action open, meta camp or home. Always carry the gun se that the direction of the muzzle can be controlled even if the carrier stumbles. Never climb a fence or tree with a loaded gun. Place it on the ground before going over don't lean' it against a fence or post. Unless you intend to shot, don't 'mint a gun at anything., Do not leave the gun until certain it is unloaded. Dorn shoot at a noise or a motion in the bush. It' may be a fellow hunter. And do not mix gunpowder and alcohol.

This edition contains the following message from the Ring - "To all serving in my forces by sea or land or air, and indeed to all my people engaged in the defence of the realm, T commend the reading of this Book. For centuries the Bible has been a wholesome and strengthening in- fluence in our national life. It be- hoanies us to turn with renewed faith to this divine source of comfort and inspiration." Through its Auxiliaries in Canada the Bible Society during the last war issued over half a million copiers in eighteen languages to those in na- tional service. The Parent Organza tion in London during the same time distributed more than nine million copies in eighty languages, The So- ciety points out both the immensity of its opportunities for service and also the diffieulti:es of these abnor- mal times. The Upper Canada Bible Satiety the local Auxiliary within this Province, estimates that a 25% addition to the Society's regular In. come will be necessary if the de- mands and the opportunities of the times are to be fully met. The Society supplies .not only sol- diers, sailors and airmen on active service, but all field and base hes- Otitis and Red Cross arganizataoms, prisoners of war and interned civil ians as well as all political refugeesa and those made destitute by war. Its organization throughout the world serves friend and foe alike. In Euro -pe during the last war one million seven hundred thousand copies of Scripture in many tongues were supplied by the Bible Society for interned civil- ians and prisoners of war in the enemy lands of Central Europe. BUILDS TURNIP STORAGE Mast optimistic regarding teh fu- ture, despite the immediate scarcity of wax and burlap bags, C. M. S-. Stovel, of Toronto, owner of two turnip waxing plants in Tavistock,. and plants at Shakespeare, Baden and Bright, is having erected a large stor- age pit adjacent to one of his planus at Tavistock. The pit, of cement, will be 50 by 30 feet and half a storey high. It will be about seven feet in the ground. The turnips will be dumped into the pit from the street,.. and will be conveyed into the plant- via a travelling belt. The pit will be filled and the turnips will be taken from it when the farmers are unable to' get into town owing to blocked roads. By having such a pit ereoted,. the plants will be kept operating.
