Flax Pulling
Flax Ilse becomeone of the most
important induetriea of Canada since
the war, The flax fibre, is used for
marring airplane wings, To bring this
home to the people of this ueighbonr-
hood was the objet of the meeting
heid in Victoria Park on Thursday
evening of last week, The Braes
Band played nntill 8,30 and then the
chair was take» by Mr, Wm, Hartry
chairman of the Production Committee
With him on the platform were Mayor
Stewart, Mr, J. J. Niamey M, P, , Mr,
F. G. Neelin and Mr, H. R, Horn, the
delegate from the Resources Commit-
tee, of Toronto, Tho opening address
by the abairman was a stirring appeal
to the patriotism of Canadians, Can-
ada was perhaps the smallest nation in
war but Canada had a big reoord
for her part in the war. Her iufautry
stoodshoutdor to shoulder with the
trained soldier of Europe and so with
aviation, Her airmen held the
firat plane. Major Bishop of Canada
was the greatest aviator of the world
to 'flay. Now to pull and harvest the
flax that made the wings for for these
men in the front line? The flax is used
for this pnvpose alone at the present
time and he was sure every man,
woman, girl and boy would help.
Mr•'J.J, Merrier, M, P. being introd
aced said he was glad tobepresent,
Flax was an important material in
winning the war, He knew the farmers
were doing their heat to increase
food products. Many were making
sacrifices to do so. But when they re.
membered the sacrifices the boys in
the trenches were making they were
glad todo it The boys from the towns
were doing splendidly. Perhaps at
times the farmer had to be patient with
Chair mistakes But as far as he knew
the boys were doing their beat and the
country owed muoh to the boys who
had come forward bravely at this time,
He said eecuri ng the flax was one
way we could do real work to win the
war.
