They con- tinue to prey on allled shipping. Some are sunk, some escape, but the relentless hunt goes on. Only rarely do our ships have the good fortune of the "Assiniboine." As the fog lift- ed she sighted her prey on the surface and proeeeded to finish her in a way about which there could bc no doubt. But the endless hunt must continue - ships must bc buuât, armed and equipped. The cost must be met. Their gallant crews are ready to pay with thefr lives, if necessary. For those of us who can't help man them, the cost is measured in money only. Yet, our money is vitally important. By pay- mng jor better ships, better gurV better equipment we help reduce that other pay- ment - Canadian lives. In inserting this advertise- ment ive hope it will help keep before us eonstantly the ur- gent necessity to work, sacri- fice, save and invest in Bonds, War Savings Certificates and Stamps. - BUY THEM FROM - T.
