ZUINICN HEltw%.r) 1.' ur Igleti eth, 04% ONTARIO has done well in her contribution of manpower and resources to the prosecu- tion of the war. Ontario must do still more in providing the sinews of war, by supporting the Fourth Victory Loan to the limit of the ability of every citizen. Our men in the fighting serv- ices will give all they have. Our people on the Rome Front can do no less. The Fourth Victory Loan is your opportun- ity to join with the Navy, the Army and Air Force in an all-out offensive. You cannot be there in person, but•your dollars can be there for you, and will provide the materials and munitions so vital to the success of the armed forces. The Government of Ontario is backing the Loan by the investment of $5,000,000 in the new Victory Bonds. This is Ontario "s'official con- tribution towards strengthening the hands of the Dominion. Government in its tremendous task of financing the total war effort that is needed. It is the tangible pledge of the Ontario Govern - mens that it will co-operate to the fullest possible extent with the Dominion Government in the drive for final victory. The action of 'the Government of Ontario is designed to give practical leadership to all the citizens of the Province, and should be an example and an inspiration *to our people to accept this Fourth Victory Loan as a personal challenge to do their part to "Back the Attack" and hasten the day of Victory. As the old Parish Rector said at the close of the remarkable film, "Mrs. Miniver", "This is the people's war ? It is our war. We are the " fighters. Fight it, then. Fight it with all that is in us." We, the people of Ontario, must fight it with our dollars. Your purchases of Victory Bonds will help to send Ontario over the top again in support of our fighting men. They will de their part when the time of attack comes. We must do ours to -day. G. D. CONANT, Premier, Province of Ontario.

Shortsighted Economy Short-sighted saving has kept many bi ness men in the rut of toilsome grind all their lh. ea and in many instances landed them in bankruptcy. Caut- ion must of course bee exercised. In the present disturbed conditions, few business people can afford to sit down and accept what comes; if they do they will gTadual.ly drift into the limbo of forgotten things. Advertising has therefore proved itself a necessity and the logical medium for this advertising is your Loyal Newspaper. The one that heralds all the local doings into every home.
