figures given in the summary for the county and thisdiat r4ctiandpuhlishid inst wfffk its fine to weeks supply of household needs and loading them ip the little express wagon that never had rubber tires in its prime and taking them home in time tor mother to get the saturday baking done dont re call a store that had much of a delivery system and those that had maintained a two wheel cart with a big box and motive power was supplied by the de livery boy delivery of the butcher shops wasnt really de- liverv in acton in those days not so many years ago but the butcher called with a tine display of meats in a covered wagon and you made your purchases at the door bananas and delivery have been done without at other not distant periods arid folks even unjoyod life before the motor car became common the alarming situations are not the home restric tions although they may seem the closest t present the banana skins on which we are skidding are still in distant countries bananas and delivery will be restored only if we put every effort in every walk of life first in the bringing of victory v theyeanrhrimruhlechanee war 25 years ago meet quotas and finish the job in good style but it was particularly fine to see that there were 5514 applications in halton that acton district had 848 applications one in less than every six in the county took bonds and one in less than every four in acton and district helped in the loan it is this participation of everyone in this latest of the war efforts that particularly pleases it is this feeling that those who arent in the front line and making a voluntary effort are backing up the fighting forces in whatever opportunity is present ed that made thislatest victory loan a greater sue- j cess than any of the previous efforts j that spirit of shoulder to shoulder was what car- ried britain through the dark days it is what will bring final victory and what we as canadians will have to cultivate more and more there are dark days ahead vet but standing together we cannot lose v chicken to the rescue just why the calling of a thing chicken makes it more desirous is more than we can fathom but it seems as if chicken is being applied to most everything these days to bring it into public favor chicken hadvlic has long been a standard line of canned fish within the vm few months those little salt fish that used to come in a big wooden box and sell at a big handful for a nickel have appeared in cellophane at a quarter the quality for double the price and now have chicken attached to the fancy label and display carton then along comes john marsh editor of the am- herstburg fcho and calls muskrat marsh chicken atd tells that folks in thaj district hold muskrat ln every circle and truly at every table there are people who lead arniies into macedonia who know where the camp ought to be placed what posts ought to he occupied by troops when and through what pass that territory should be entered sjhere magazines should be formed how provisions should be conveyed by land and sea and when it is proper to engage the enemy when to lie quiet and they not only determine what is best to be done but if anything is done in any other manner than what they have pointed out they arraign the consul as if he were on trial before them these are great impediments to those who have the management of affairs for every one cannot encounter injurious re ports with the same constancy and firmness of mind as fabius dfd who chose to let his own ability be questioned through the folly of the people rather than to mismanage the public business with high reputation i am not one of those who think that comraanderqubhtalotimetoriceiteajlvicejon the contrary 1 should deem that man more proud than wise who regulated every

and whose knowledge is derived from experience from those who are present at the scene of action who see the country who see the enemy who see the advantages that occasions of fer and who like people
