Navy League of Canada The Canadian National Exhibition this year is offering a new attraction, featuring daily grandstand demon- strations of the work of Canada's famous Sea Cadets. These are the boys trained under the auspices of the Navy League of Canada, which main- tains active units in various part of the Dominion, The Cadets who will take part in the review. are those comprising 11.M.S. Temeraire and Courageous, of Toronto. Visitors to the Exhibition, there- fore, will be given an opportunity to sce what Sea Cadet training does for boys. One of thé usual features of the demonstration will be a series of interesting drill movements, all exe- cuted without commands from the officers. . - The war has already proved the value of the training given by -the Navy League, hundreds of the boys who have gone through the cadets corps now being in various branches of the active service, on land and in the air as well as on the sea. The League is continuing its work of keeping all units recruited to strength. "Financial assistance for this work, and also for the war work of the Navy Leagues of Great Britain and Canada in looking after sailors and their families, is being greatly promoted by the success of Miss Gracie Fields' tour of Canada. So large have been skating arenas have had to be resorted to, to accommodate the crawds, thousands. still being turned away From the magnificent reception given this outstanding English stage favo- rite in the West, Navy League officials in the East are looking for splendid ern Cahada. ---- PP he Model Driver Automobile Commissioner W. Lee Elgin, of Baltimore, Md., has offered the following concise definition of the model driver: ' He is one who keeps his mind on his driving, keeps in the line of trafic, anticipates what other drivers ave go- ing to do, watches out for pedestrians, slows down at schools, crossings and dangerous intersections; signals fo turns, keeps his dar under control, obeys traffic signals and signs, amd has his car regularly inspected and maintained. One might add--Doesn't mix alcohol and gasoline, doesn't attempt to pass cars on a curve or a hill, and never insists on legal rights at the expense of public safety. --_-- too Bowling News Men's Doubles. on Monday, Aug. 19.

To | i "A business man maintains that the - expensive scents and perfumes that 1] women use should be taxed to help! pay for the war; but aren't we paying through the nose already ?"--Punch. | ~~ --_--y H First British Soldier--*So our poor old Empire is alone in the world:" Second British Soldier-- "Aye, we are--the whole five hundred million of us.""--Punch. ~~ > or Man Powe We can estimate, as far as num- bers are concerned the manpower and womanpower of the nation. A recent speech in the House of Commons gave the following figures. There are in Caanda roughly 4,700,000 men and women between the ages of 18 and 44. Of these 2,400,000 are males and 2,- 300,000. females. Between the ages of 44, and 5¢ the total male population is 950,000 -- female over 820,000. Eliminating for the moment those of GO years and over and those who are- under 18 years of age, and in both these classes there are tremendous re- serves of energy and capacity, and we have some idea of our manpower and! womanpower. ee -- TWO TORONTO MEN HELP RESCUE BOYS WHEN THEIR SAILBOAT OVERTURNS - Messrs, Frank Armstrong and Roy | Jones, of Toronto, assisted by Jack Sangster of Port Perry, and Jerry Colleran of Scugog, rescued Wallace Collins, Harold Martyn, Nelson Read- | er, and Clifford Redman all of Scugog, when the sailboat they were in over- turned on Sunday.
