lost all the possessions they owned a soldier in italy and another in belgium wrote us and told of shortage of food because their sup plies could not keep up with them they had to go several days without bread they were moving so quickly at that time soldiers and rtheir wives returning from overseas marvel at the store shelves and their big stocks of supplies compared with those in the stores overseas it seems as if most canadians should look around and count their many blessings and greet the oppor tunity to purchase not one more but many more victory bonds this week is the last opportunity to participate in the seventh victory loan- savings deposits in dicate that many do not rcalizothe opportunity of fered in this fine investment the participation does sometimes point that many do not appreciate the good fortune that is t heirs living in canada where homes are not wrecked by bombs where goods ore plentiful and where wc do not live in fear day and night of losing all our possessions canadians cannot afford to let the loan fail in its objective our district is one of a unit of all canadians it is our duty to see that it dues not fail buy all you can for cash and then double it on the time payment plan dont have an accusing con science after the opportunity has passed v remembrance day twentysix years ago next saturday a warweary world greeted an armistice that ended four years of armed conflict in europe it was thought then the tremendous sacrifice of those four years had brought enduring peace nations applied themselves to the task of rebuilding upon what they thought would be a permanent foundation of security and tranquility in the years that followed november ii was com memorated by solemn observances in honor of the many thousands who fought and died in the cause of freedonjujbut for more that five years now another war has been raging another struggle for the pre servation of our democratic way of life has been going on in the passing years armistice day came to be known as remembrance day and though we are at war many do not realize what it is to be remembered i even before this war the wreathlaying the speeches and the silent pauses of remembrance day lost some of their significance and to many the observ ances were merely tho expression of thanks for vic tory and tribute to the men who died so valiantly more and more obscure has become the fact that their victory opened the door to enduring peace and enlightened progress that the door was not prop ped open and that it was finally allowed to swing shut again does not lessen one whit the glory of their sacrifice or the brightness of the torch of peace passed to us undimmed from failing hands remembrance day 1044 must be a pledge to those serving and dying in this war that the heritage they leave will this time be fruitful and lasting the victory and peace of a quarter century ago was allowed to slip from the victors hands but the new victory must be held firmly and
