Did you know that it is esti- mated over twclvc thousand per- sons read this newspaper every week, reail the news and adver- tising, the feature articles, and in most families this paper is kept in the home and rcad and re-read until the next issue arrives. That's a fact flot to be overlookcd by people engagcd in ah ulnes of business who wish more trade would corne thcir way, but who are doing nothing about it.

Parents will be charged only 15 cents a month for ten months for each child in Grades One to Three and 20 cents a month for the same period for Grades Four to Eigbt. This covers ahl costs for schoul supplies. It is expected that parents will find a distinct saving under the new plan.

Austin, Hastings & Priyce Edward Regt., "'A" Coy., Central Mediterranean Forces, Canadian Army Overseas, August, 1943. Meiburne J. Wight, Bowmanville. Hello Melb.: A few lines to let you know I arn still in the land of the living and quite well. Believe it or not I arn in Sicily in the big battie. We seem to have put the skids on Jerry and expect the Island to be in our hands very shortly. The weather here is very hot in. the day but gets a bit cooler at night. Sorry I can't give you ail the details about the things that are happening but I suppose you get most of it in the paper anyway. Incidentally, I had my picture taken, by a reporter, on one of the heights we captured. I suppose you know we are in the Eighth Army now and they are a swell bunch of fellows. There is plenty of fruit here but it is not just ripe. We have grapes, lemons, figs, ail kinds of nuts, and of course apples and pears. My main weakness is "ýcigs" so if you send anything ALEX. Laura Secord Candies make it cigarettes. The people here are a very poor class and sort of slovenly but seemn well pleased with us. Wc have taken thousands of Italian prisoners who seem quite pleascd to bc out of the war. The Ger- man soldier is a tougber man to beat and a bard fighter but just not gond enougb for the old First Division. Excuse the scribbling as I arn writing this in a treich at the front. Write soon. Mrs. C. Lemon, Second Street, received the following letter from ber brother, L'CpI. T. Coulson Woolner, who is witb the Central Mediterranean Forces in Sicily. This is the first communication Mrs. Lemon bas received since March. C6121, L'Cpl. T. C. Woolner, l2th Army Tk. Regt., C.A.C., Cdn. Army Overseas, Central Mediterranean Forces. "'This is about the first letter I've written to you since we carne to Sicily. It wasnt long ago that we were yelling for action. And we have it now and it wasn't as nice as I cxpccted, for my hair stood on end a good many times. "Our mail is starting to corne through, so dont forget to write often, for a letter here does us the world of good. "I've met a fcw of the Bow- manville boys here. I met George Burns and George Kennedy one night just before thcy went up the line. "The country bere is very bot in the daytime for it just about cooks you alive, but there is also a lot of fruit to eat to take the thirsty feeling away. Oranges and grapes grow just like appl6s do back in England, so I've had lots of them and watermelons are very popu- lar too. Keep mail and parcels coming for they really are welcomed now.

Townsbip Clerk of Clarke, on "Your Part and Mine in This War on The Home Front" one can easîly un- derstand why Mr. Mellor beaded the list of canvassers selling War Bonds in the last campaign in Durham County. In bis rnasterly and forceful way the speaker, in bis introductory remarks, said be made no apologies for talking about the war as the war should be the first thing on our minds in these critical days. He pre- dicted the darkest days are stili abead and we must be prepared to meet tbem as realists. Toucbing on the coming War Loan he referred to a recent con- versation he overbeard among a group of men. One man in opti- mistic mood said if anybody can put it across we can. While an- other man in bis usual fauit find- ing way complained of the waste of rnoncy and blamed other tbings on the goverîiment. He claimed he'd donc bis share and wouJ.d do no more. He had raised live stock and pigs to feed the soldiers, put in long hours on the farm to increase production and had bought five War Savings Certifi- cates. The speaker claimcd this man bad not donc bis share any more than the rest of' us. It is our job, he said, to get down to solid foundation and do more and contribute more toward winning the war than we'vc ever donc. By compariqon he showed our contribution was only a pittance as compared to the real sacrifices the soldiers are rnaking in leav- ing their homes and loved ones, and in many cases neyer to re- turn. Until we at home can put ourselves on the same level of sacrifice we have not donc our share, the speaker asserted. Several instances were relatcd of the services and sacrifices peo- ple in the Old Country were mak- ing witbout a word of complaint. In fact they thanked God they were able to carry on and lQoked forward with confidence to the day of rebuilding their lost homes and devastated lands. When we in Canada realize the pain and suffering these brave people are experiencing, the speaker put this question to bis A.
