By all flic techaical rules of war flic Russians should have been beafen long ago. Havmng suffercd losses nurnbered in hundrcds of thous- ands - having sent in over a mil- lion men f0 face forces so superior in numbers fliaf flic odds seemed M cM hopeless - the Russian generals sliould have said "flie straftcg9ice thiag ta do is f0 ' faîl back across flic Volga f0 a natural defence hune we can, liold." But flche - Russian generals do not fighf ac- cording f0 that " parficular r u 1el. book. They have an- ~ other guide. If is fthc conviction that cornes down flirougli the ages: No nation was ever beaten by another nation if if refuscd f0 be beaten. No nation was ever beaten, in other words, unless if admitfed defeat, or otherwise beat itself. Maybe this is not precise his- tory la defail. But lunflic broadest sense if is truc. Take France, for instance, at flic time of the early revolution- ary period wlicn Frcnchmen fought for fthc riglits of man. That France, tirne and again, dcfcatcd flireats from abroad by the sheer, strengtli of spirit. They had sorne- thing stronger than a Maginot line. Russia has that spirit now. If is fthc spirit whicli refuses f0 be beaten. As long as Russia kecps if she won't be beaten. j WHAT WE NEED The doctors tell us fliat there is danger of another epidemic lu this war, as lanflic last. What our part of flic world necds is an cpidemic of flic Russian spirit. For Af is "catching" as the young- sters say. The wholc free world could be set aflame in spirit by leadership whicli would say: These are the heiglits we mnust scale f0 wia - full speed aliead f0 win tliem. Thc trouble witli us, so far, is that wc are f00 "expert," f00 "professional." Wc have f00 many people in high places who know all the reasons wliy "if cannot be donc." Wc have f00 few leaders like flic shipbuildcr, Henry Kai- scr, whose answer is "the hcll you say." Kaiser, incidcntally, kceps a significant card up la front of the cyes of his kcy hlpers. If carnies a picture of a big Uumblebee and says underneafli, "The bumblebee can't fly. According f0 all fthc rules of acronautical science flic wcight of flic bumblebce is fao heavy for flic lifting power of the wings. Yet flic bumblebee doesn't know this. So if just flics any- way."1 Future gencrations, of course. will know better flian that. Thcy will rewrite the laws of aeronau- tics ta conform witli fli facts of life. Tlicy will f ind ouf what they do not kaow now. Maybe f00, fthc military scien- tusts of flic future will rewrite the rules of war. Maybe they will re-assess the power of the various w capons. DOES MOVE MOUNTAINS Hluadrcds of ycars before Christ, a Chinese rnilitary writcr wrotc about war with a wisdomn neyer yet surpasscd. He assessed flic spirit la the licarts of the armies as about twice as important as flic wcapons lanflicir hands. The grcatcst words of our own Laurier werc about flic powcr of faith. The grcatcsf words in flie Eaglisli language, or any lang- uage, are "I believe." For if is literally truc fliat faith can move mounfains-that doubt is defeaf arrived ahcad of time. TIME TO ATTACK Ia the short range sense, the .ayrnan can never hope f0 kaow wliether or not we arc la a posi- be so as flic sad, itermiftcenf, reports corne tlîroug-h. Nowv wvlaf is the nef sinnimarv of if ail? Canada anîd Canadians, iîeludiîîg ftle be- xeaved, have this resaIt before fhcm. St rongily int o the 4th year of flic war we have upon flic National Ledger these gior- ions fiascoes of Hong Kong aid Dieppe. Let fleicniofiers clasp flic innorfal giory of flîcir sons.

"Magiiificent", sa3-s Prime Minister King. Jusf let us f ake him af lis word and calnîly sum if ail up, whicli recalîs Lincoln's 1letter "And the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costiyv a sacrifice upon flicaIt ar of freedom" Fire Prevention Week Once again by Proclamation of lis Ex- cellency flic Governor Geuicral of Canada, flic week of October 4fiî f 0 lOh has been set aside as Pire Preveîîtion Week. Whiv a Fire Prevention Wleek? Fire Pre- venfion is a mat er whieh nccds attention fifty-fwo w-eeks lunflic vear. If lias been found desirable, however, for flic Iast twenfy-fwo or twenty-tliree ycars to de- sigîîafe a wcek in wvhicii flic public con- sciousness may be iunpressed wifh the enor- mous cost of our wvaste ini the hope that bespeak going "back" f0 some- thing. Our unconscious attitudes arc even more significant. Yet flhc whole besson of life, as I read if, and especially that of our own two-war generation, is 1this: The world cannot turn back. The only tirnes of real hurnan progress arc when human bcings make Up their rninds that tbey have f0 go ahead. GOOD OLD DAYS A Canadian girl rcmarked the other day: 1 wish I had lived a hundred years ago, lu the pioncer days. In every North American famîly there is a farnily tradition of these "good old days.". When mca and wornen had f0 leave everything they had in the old world, cross the then-dangerous seas, carve a home ouf of virgin forest, live dangcrously among flhc Indians-then fthc strange cx- hilaration of fthc idea of advancc was clear. Ifs glow has neyer quite died ouf. If is a maffer of common know- ledge that in pioncer days people are more neighborly. Where peo- ple arc few, and in new places, they instinctively stand together with more humanity than they do whcn they get "urbanized." Yct on a large scale the pria- ciple runs through ail life. What are those "golden ages" in bis- tory? They are those when the people wcre building something better, pushing ouf f0, something new, taking chances, fitting info flic law of life which says you rnust go forward, or sink back in "shallows and mîseries." The so-called golden age of Elizabeth was such. Iu every phase of life the people of flic British island wcre pushing ouf, going aliead, thinking about new worlds, doing new fhiags. FORWARD OR PERISM The Cornrunists have rendered tion f0 lauach an aftack ln wes- tern Europe. For beffer or for worse fliat decision mnust be lef t f0 fliose wlio have bofli the know- ledgc and flic power f0 acf on if. But considering the world as a wliole - and the fimes in which we live - this trufh must be cleàr f0 anyonc who stops f0 think: The firne has corne when the free world mnust get ready f0 launcli a real "offensive" on al fronts. Wliat bas roffed the very soul of the times ia which wc live is flic defensive mentalify. Everybody now knows what fthc Maginot line did f0 flic spirit of France. The nation which had saved itself over and over again by "clan," by rising f0 liciglits of spiritual exaltation and human courage - traded all that for flic same kind of rnornntary cornfort which an ostricli is supposed f0 get from hiding ifs eycs frorn un- pleasant prospects. But not everybody ycf secs that our whole western world suffers îon a large scale frorn what France suffered on a small scale: Ia every sphere of life we are trying f0 hide behind our political, social, national and religious Maginotf unes. We are fighting fthc war-when if cornes righf down ta bedrock-rnerely f0 prevent being conquered and robbcd by Hitler. We are trying to "save" something of the religious faith and form our fathers knew. We talk of "reconstruction" or "re- habilitation" affer flic war. The very prefix "re" means "back." Ia every phrase, la every sen- tence, our coasclous expressions. ICTORY is in your pocket 0 L-242X . conditions may be inmproved and careless- ness reduced.

AIl fires are small in their beginning but tlîey rnay develop info conflagrations. Our duty is f0 sec f bat they don't start.
