In fact the advertisements endorse the statement re- cently made by Col. the Hon. J. L. Ralston, that "cool heads are just as necessary as stout hearts to win this war, and win it we must and shall." The life insurance companies are doing their part towards winning the war by subscribing millions of insurance money to the national war loans. This act on the part of the Canadian companies helps fin- ance the various undertakings of the gov- ernment and at the same time helps sustain the national morale. Man power and resources musi be mobil- ized, it is pointed out, and the life insurance companies are doing something about it. Their subscriptions are helping sustain the war effort at a maximum speed and effici- ency -- highly desirable at this stage in the war. They have money to invest and by subscribing large blocks to the war loan they are showing their faith in Canada, in the Empire and going about their business in the usual business like way. Quick Tanning Undesirable There may be a tendency on the part of the office man or inside worker to get a quick tan on the holiday he might be taking this summer, and this over-enthusiasm might make the balance of his holiday most miserable. A bad dose of sunburn will most surely follow reckless exposure to the hot rays of the sun before a delicate skin has been acclimatized. Then half-cooked arms, legs and shoulders could make the most de- termined vacationist wish that he had never attempted to be a semi-nudist. Exposure to sun rays should be only for brief minutes during the earlier days of the holiday, and it should take about 16 days for a child's skin to tan with safety, the current issue of "Health" states. Sitting directly in the sunshine with uncovered head may ° bring on a crippling sunstroke, the "Health" article warns. And the consequences of a sunstroke may be far reaching. The timely warning then, is, take your sun baths gently, in short easy stages, and enjoy vour holidays to the fullest, 'without the miserable sensation of being burned and little you civa do for it. Shows What Total War Means To Canada "The Front of Steel', fourth in the series of films made by the National Film Board in co-operation with the Director of Pub- lic Information is being released in Cana- dian theatres this week, and will be shown at Oshawa theatres. The film describes for the first time in Canada, the full implications of modern war and what Canada is doing to meet the challenge of blitzkrieg. It shows what blitzkrieg is and how its technique was developed in Germany dur- ing the six years of Nazi rule before war broke out. In brilliant pictures never be- fore shown in Canada, one sees the mat- erials and tactics of mechanized war, the armoured divisions in all their strength and precision, new methods of army co- operation, newly developed light and heavy tanks, naw devices like flame throwers and new bodies of men like parachutists in full fighting kit. The real story of the film is the story of what lies behind this wall of fire and upon which depends 'our whole capacity to meet the new challenge is the skill of the industrial worker at his machine. The pic- ture shows the way in which Britain and Canada have organized themselves to carry on total war and how they are pit- ting their industrial might and their re- sources against those of Germany. The "about further power. ; story is told of the concentration of Cana- da's power to this end, the conversion of needs, the intensification of effort all along industries from peace time to war time the line to turn out more engines, more tanks, more guns, more shells, more ships, more planes, It is the story of what total war means to every woker in Canada. British Courage It is difficult to estimate courage of which there are many kinds. British ' courage is ope that does not know when it is beaten. This trait is very noticeable even in the fair sex when one receives cor- respondence from the Old Land, in these critical times. It is true they all realize the danger but there is not the slightest sign of panic. They calmly speak of the weather, the beauty of the countryside, but of the deadly missles dropping at the doors, at the very time of their writing, they pay but the scantiest attention. This is the spirit that is most commend- able. What can be done with people who refuse to acknowledge defeat? This spirit has been prominent in the British makeup since the earliest times; but much more pronounced in these Twentieth times. It was true when the Romans and Warrior Norsemen came and took possession of certain parts of Britain at various times: then the Normans under William the Con- queror came in 1066 when the Britons docilely submitted to their harsh rule. As time advanced the Britons quietly absorbed the best characteristics of their conquerors and now in these times of crisis are ready to meet all comers. The British are not boasting of their prowess but are ready to meet whatever situation that con- fronts them with a dignity and calmness that causes surprise even to the best equip- ped foe. They apparently can extricate themselves even from the most desperate situations. By her kindly trusting nature she has been tricked by a most treacherous enemy, nor is Britain dismayed for she meets her unfortunate position in a most philosoph- ical manner and calmly goes about he? business of defeating her traducers just as deliberately as though the foe were com- pletely at her mercy and all she needed to do were to dictate her terms. In last week's "Onward" we got a defini- tion of the word "Crisis". This is said to be composed of two characters, one signi- fying disaster and the other opportunity. Thus to the Chinese mind a crisis may signify on the one hand dire calamity, or, on the other, unparalleled opportunity. This indicates a common sense apprecia- tion of a profound truth which modern psychology has only lately emphasized. The philosopher has long known the soundneess of this paradox of disaster and opportunity but the psychologist has not understood until quite recently its psychological inter- pretation. Does it not seem possible that placid John Bull has acquired the manner meeting a crisis in the same commonsense way as stolid John Chinaman, but in a more practical frame of mind, so that even the most apparent defeat and disaster opens the gateway to unparalleled opportunity and success.--Joseph Denny.

How well British shipyards are keeping pace with the naval losses of the war is proved by the announcement that there are now more British destroyers in service than there were at the start de war, The toy pistol and hayfork that were used to subdue the crew of a German homb- er plane in England should be placed in a museum. They indicate the cowardice of the Nazi when put on "the spot" and the bravery of the English in the same situa- tion. An influential newspaper in France fears a famine in France and vigorously protests against the stripping of its food by Ger- many. Too bad Petain had not thought of that. Food shortages and servitude have followed wherever the Nazi has gained control. We don't. see why the political parties do not get together on these by-elections and arrange for acclamations, if it is really necessary that they have representation. The government surely has enough of a majority that it does not need to worry And then to dis- franchise the soldiers by not allowing them to vote hardly seems the democratic thing to do.

GOL FRANKLIN RESIGNS POST AT PETERBORO Old War Injury Forces Him to Relinquish Command of Highland Regiment Peterboro, July 31.--An old injury, a reminder of the first Great War had foreed Lieut.-Col. W. J. Frank- lin, M.C,, V.D, to relinquish com- | mand of the Stormont, Dundas and | Glengarry Highlanders, according to an announcement by Brigadier Lo- gle Armstrong, O.B.E, officer com- | manding Military District No. 3. Major R. T. E. Hicks-Lyne, M.C., who commanded the Prince of Wales Rangers (M.G.) until recent- ly, and who reverted from the rank of: Heutgnant-colonel in order to be- come second-in-command of the Highlanders, is acting as C.O. at | present, while Major James Turn- bull, commanding headquarters | Company, is acting second-in-com- mand. The name of Col. Franklin's suc- cessor will be announced shortly, and it is generally believed that Major Hicks-Lyne will be appoint- ed to the command. Col. Franklin suffered a leg injury overseas, and it was found that because of this he did not meet the physical standard set for officers of the C.A.S.F. Two new officers have been ap- pointed to Headquarters Company, Lieut. A. F." Meiklejohn. of Kingston, | has been gazetted signal officer, | and 2nd Lieut, Athole C. Stewart, of Lakefield, is transport officer. Mr. | Stewart was a member of the To- ronto Irish. Regiment, but has been attached for some time to the 'Prince of Wales Rangers (M.G.) Five officers of Headquarters Company have left Peterboro to at- tend a qualifying course in King- ston. They are 2nd Lieutenants E. W. Haley, L. D. Foster, D. A. Scolt, | K. N. Kingston and A. C.
