The yacht, it is xeperted, buxns cil and thie Tribune is,.an cnemy of Britain.' I semetimes rcad the Tribune and, as a Britisher, dis- like it intensely. They stili are urging a negotiated peace, which would be an admission that Hitler carnnt be beaten. In thie past I have voted for Mx. Hepburn, but wondcr how I cari do se again. I travel by street car and think Mx. Hepburn shouid join in tac gasoline-saving effort. Also I do not censcicusly permit myseif te be entertuîncd, lavishly or cthcrwise, by enemies cf my cou try. As a great user cf Cana- dia>f trees, tac Chicago Tribune must have business dealingi with our provincial gcvernmcnt. But, why doci Mr. Hepburn tuke pIeu- sure, apparently, in social affains with representatives cf that insti- tution? Ycurs truly, A. G. Gaffieid 124 Nerthcliffe Blvd., Toronto, August 30, 1941. Dean Mx. Editon: This was a method of rccruiting in thie l8th century and carlier, whcn men werc seized and press- cd into the services cf both army and navy. It suppcsedly beioriged te cruder and more brutal days. But accerding te an item in tac Orono Times cf August 28th, this method in pninciple is te be re- vived. The item is as follcws: "We have learned from a rehuable source that ail men bctween the ages fnom 20 to 34 ycurs of Clarke Township and Newcastle will be appreachcd by a cemmittee that will be uppointed whose duty it will be te investigate cvery case as te those who have enlisted and tc find eut the reuson why the nemainder have net donc se." This is patrietism, as the saying gees, gene hay-wire. The more honorable, efficient and just me- thod cf securing recruits is con- scription. But this is oppcsed by the Federal Government. Ac- conding te thie Prime Minuster in crie cf his Western addnesses the volunteer system cf free meni pro- duces a better soldier. It is more in keeping with the spirit cf Can- ada, which will give an ailleut wmr effort cri a free wîll basis. Yet this statement is contnadicted by the metheds cf recruiting adopted. Mer everywhere anc beirig deliberately embarnassed into the services. A preminerit daily papen stated recently that the militia was used as such a recnuitirig gnourid (psycholegical- ly the Press Gang). TRie Four 1Months Trainees are now ccm- rpelled te serve iri Canada for thie -dunation. Another form of the Pness Gang for the active service. Now a committec to thumb screw then, fellow citizenstrnto tac ser-. vices-Press gang again. No cen- scription! Can't end hypocrisy. The cemmittce is a mild ferm cf the gestopo. AVtrn Baysvtlle, Ont., Aug. 31, 1941. Caciarea, Aug. 26, 1941 Mr. Editor: Here is soething about tac "VI'. I have seen and read in your paper a lot* about the "VI'. We think thîs is a riew one. One morning last week I went te get the milk that the Port Perry daixy had left. On picking up the bottle I noticed a V on thie side of it. I was just going to say they have even got the miik bottles mark- cd wtth a V. I put my finger on it and it straightened eut, and whcn I tcok my firiger off it form- cd a perfect V again. It turned eut te be just a pîcce cf grass sticking te tac rnilk bottle. Mrs. John Watson. Nestieton, R. R. 1 What Kind 0f A Bird i. This Speciren ? Andy Clarke, pepular "'Neigh- borly News" braadcaster has sent us the following letter he rcceived from a young lad i South Dar- iington: R.R. 2, Bowmanville, Dear Mr. Clarke: ,- We have a bird here and we de nct know what it is. I found it coming on home from school on May 16th. It did net have a fcathcr on se I guess it wasn't berri very long. It must have fai- len out cf the nest. We fed it werms and seme egg ycik. It is a big bird now and lives on let- tuce, bread crumbs, fat and veg- etabies. Wc get him canaxy secd but he just shoots it eut of his dîsh and will net cat it. He was brown and grcy arid his throat was white, but riew his feathers cri his bremst are turning black and whitc with a gncèn tinge te them. He has a wcodpeckcn's bemk. He sings evcny morning and night and threugh tac day. If he heans eggs frying or tac ket- tic boiling he sings. We take him te thc bath te get bathed whene bc jumpsin iand iplashes away and gets soakinig wet. Then he jumps froxi one persan te anether then back in his cage. When we got hlm first he loeked like a frog. He could hardly keep his eyes open. Wc think he is a rcd hcaded woodpecker cr a flicker. He cati flics. He docsn't fIy away at ail. Yeurs truly, Bob Hery. ENGAGEMENT, The engagement is anneunced of Sybil Alice Medd, Bowman- ville, gnnddaughter cf Mx. and Mrs. Ben Johnson, Peterborough, te James Edwatd Hayman, son cf Mrs. Hayman and thie late Thomas Hayman, Bewmanvîlle.
