We believe that, the one essential - of all national progress is national unity. A United Canada is the ficin foundation on which all the far- reaching Progressive Conservative ' plans' for post-war -reconstruction are endul'ingly based: We are deter- mined to achieve that unity: 'f±UL AGE OF PLENTY _IS AT OUR DOOR—if we will but unite and co-operate to make it a reality for every one of our fellow citizens. BUT .. . CANADA HAS BEEN SPLIT APART In time of war, Canadians "reaped the whirlwind" brought about by the King Government's manpower ' poli- cies—policies that for 25 years have been fostering division and disunity. Those policies now challenge every fair-minded Canadian. That challenge —now that V -E Day has come and gene --is the first to be faced if Can- adians are to assure the unity and prosperity of this nation. - TO -DAY, THE QUESTION IS: Shall .political expediency be per- petuated? Shall the "biggest hoax ever per- petrated on a nation" be permitted, in time of peace, to embroil Canada in new inequities, new partisan squab- bles, new divisions and disunities? OR — do YOU agree with . John Bracken who -bluntil states that "to give political considerations priority over the nation's interest is ' intoler- able and unforgivcable" ? CANADA FACES THE ISSUE To -day, Canada's heritage of national disunity is too evident, too real, to be ignored. The grave .crisis of war, which proverbially unites a nation, ha., been used as a political iiistrtimento accentuate and inflame differences .found in every human family ... fostering disunity, in this our country, to serve party purposes. The political self -Seeking of the King Government's "Divide and Rule" policy has exacted a toll in • sacrifice and suffering to be shared by gen- erations to come. . UNITE—CO-OPERATE—PROSPER •4 Long ago, John Bracken expressed the -great objective of the Progressive Conservatives. In his own words, we are setting out "to- regain the unity - that has been lost". Unity—Co- operation these are, the foundations of our new, progressive conception of National Prosperity in which all Canadians shall share. WE STAND FOR— • National Unity ... NOT Piecemeal Politics seeking Political Advan- ' tage through National Disunity. Co-operation... NOT Class Hatred, Dictatorship and Bureaucratic Tyranny. WE BELIEVE — • Sectionalism must, come to an end, subject to the recognized rights of minorities. • Everyone, regardless of racial ori- gin, must be regarded as a Can- adian, sharing equally the rights and obligations of • Canadian cit- izenship. WE DEMAND.— • In War, equality of service and sacrifice. • In Peace, equality of opportunity for all. • One standard of citizenshiy, WIN WITH BRACKEN Vote for Your ` C.ONSERYJ-TM CANDIDATE 4 Petits/fed bi+ die ,15ros sews a **weedy* terint, cr GOOD APPETITE..

'M. asks: "Would you make sandwiches the day before a 9iinch- eon with day-old bread?" ' Answer: We used to say, use day- old breakd for sandwiches, but if you chill fresh bread two or three hours in the refrigerator it slices easily and the resulting sandwiches are better for being fresh. Mrs. J. E. ;asks: "When you serve an evening repast of a wedge of cho- colate layer cake, small cakes and coffee, what is -the procedure?" Answer: Serve the cake on a small plate with a fork, then serve the coffee and present the small cakes arranged on a large plate. Miss E. J. asks: "Do you serve the bride and groom first at a recep- tion 'or the .groom's parents?" Answer: -The .bride is served first, then the groom, the minister, the groom's -parents and the bride's par- ents. Actually, It doesn't make any difference—its better to serve the group conveniently to maintain in- formality. ., • Hello Homemakers! Hpstesses have changed. The 1945 version is as gra- cious and serene as herpredecessor but she is much more sensible and practical. Her entertaining is spon- taneous, informal and simple ' Showers for the wartime bride keep in step with this trend, but the party touch can be easily added by the ex- ercise of a little effort abd ingenuity. Here are a few hints you may, find suggestive. For the laundry or kitchen shower party stretch a clothes line across the corner and peg on the light -weight gifts, leaving the others in a decorat- ed. basket below., To wrap the large gift, cover a small trunk to resemble a treasure chest and put a big imitation lock on it . . o. Perhaps a thermometer key. A pretty piece of shower curtain material may be used to hide the gifts . . . placed curtain style from the top of the doorway to the chair where the bride-to-be Will unwrap the gift. • A pathway may be outlined by shoes, strung along with .pink or white ribbon. At thet.'end place a set of portable steps `Br • the bride-to-be to sit on. These should be covered with carpet. (You may locate steps in a community or church hall). There are • other • ideas too such as decorating a toy wagon, wheelbarrow, boat, umbrella or watering -can to hold the gifts. A doll dressed as a bride makes an effective dining room • table - centrepiece; or y may prefer to hang hearts fluttering on ribbons from the centre light. Shower Refreshments 1.

B. requests: Recipe . for pinwheels to serve at a Ibuffet lunch- eon? Answer: Mix 14 cup finely -cut "cooked ham with 2 tablespoons chop- ped green pepper, • 11/Z teaspoons pre- pared mustard and 'scraped onion to taste. ,Moisten with tomato catsup and spread over rectangle of dough. Roll, slice and bake in oven at 450 degrees. Miss J. T. says: Why are pumpkin tarts sogy?- Answeir: Canned pumpkin should be 'well -drained, then use slightly beaten .egg yolks in mixing the fill- ing. Baking may also be the cause of soggy pastry—theo oven should be preheated to 400 degrees for 10 min- utes and then reduced to 325 degrees. Mrs. N. C. says: We use sour cream instead of water or tomato catsup to make a good meat loaf with lean meat." • Anne Allan invites you to write to her ,e/o The 'l t'rgR .1!3tpouitgr, .'. in your suggeatloiis o.n ilO}ln ;'problem and watch, to eolu replies. 10, Goes To Glace ' Gay - Rev.

It may be a farm, a store or a lumber -yard; an architect's of ice•or a service station. Taken together, these individual enter- prises provide a,very substantial part of Canada's total , jobs --must continue to -do so after the war. During the years ahead many, people who dropped small business for war reasons will want to' return to their accustomed or new ways of making a living. Thus old businesses will be revived. Many new ones will be started by returned men and people . now in war indus- tries. The commercial banks will do their part to afford assurance that no sound credit requirement need be left unserved in the field of small business: As such businesses grow/they create additional job openings; that has been the pattern of Canadian enter- prises. Most large companies began in a small way, And practically all could name some bank which playa a part in their growth by providing the loans they needed to finance their day-to-day operations. Your hank stands ready to terve businesses, small or large, well established or just starting, -out. Banks do. not initiate such businesses—but they do furnish neces- sary working' capital and many other forms of banking service. This Advertisement is.
