memoex of the canadian weekly newspaper assodauon and the ontarioquebec division of the owj1jl the editors corner this is a victory loan six tildes in the last three years we have writ ten editorials about victory loans nothing matters now but victory back the attack speed the victory are some of the campaign slogans which come to mind slogans which tell their story of a na tion coming closer to the day when the war will be over we could think of no better slogan this time than this is a victory loan with emphasis on the is and we should thank god that canadas fighting troops with superb leadership are in there punching for us doing their best to see that a speedy end be made of the enemy perhaps some of us are inclined to think- victory has been already won that this 7th vic tory loan is really not necessary and that already we have done our share nothing is farther from the truth the tiny foothold iri germany proper must be lengthen ed our soldiers will need tons of shells tanks food clothing and equipment and its the loan of your dol lars which will supply these we must realize that now with victory so near it would be fatal to falter to deny our soldiers the ultimate in support at a time when they are about to deliver the knockout blow yes this is a victory loan and once more every citizen in the georgetown district is urged to buy bonds to the absolute limit of his finances its the least thai we at home can do very inconvenient the coming into effect of the new regulations cirocernmg the hours of employment has not created much disturbance in the retail stores on georgetown 3ham street the eighthour day and fortyeight hour week have been worked out satisfactorily evidently to employee employer and we might add to customer the reason we added customer that toooften forgotten man xn these days of shortages and easy sales a because an advertisement in a recent issue of the araoe free press made us realize how hard it would he jot lcajwewive to regulate their weekend buying if tsx meat market hours adopted in our neighbouring iwe were brought into effect here the advertisement iawued jointly by the three acton meat stores and tated tbey would henceforth be closed all day monday trjey pen at what sctnu an early hour 730 am but quite likely tins ja necessary in their business otherwise they wouldnt do so then aside from the customerconvenience fttig we wouldnt think it a good thing for other mer chants to have all the meat stores dose4 for a whole day coming into the winter season perhaps it wont be too difficult for citizens without refrigeration facili ties to keep fresh meat for 48 hours but with the ad vent of warm weather there will doubtless be consider able loss through spoilage maybe there are special factors in acton which will make for success of the plan with no hardships worked on anyone but we are quite certain that a simi lar plan in georgetown would prove very unpopular with everyone concerned a scene to remember were all familiar with and love the perennial beauty of the glen spring summer and winter the village and the valley in which it lies offer a view from certain hills of georgetown which never fails to evoke a thrill of gladness in its beauty true canada offers more ruggedly picturesque spots where mountains and forestfringed lakes abound but for a perfect panor amic view of fertile ontario fields and forests you will go far to equal that of the glen valley cupped within its ridge of hills springs subtle greens and dark rich browns soon change into abundant summers sharper hues weve not yet tired of the valleys summer verdure before the autumn frosts touch the maples and sumac with crimson the whole valley turns into a kaleidescopic view with reds

industries is to be made by national selective service during the fall and winter months hon humphrey mitchell mini ster of labour has announced while care will be taken not to encourage men to leave dairy or livestock farms where they are needed during the winter the effort will be to secure men for vacancies in other industries just as soon ao the fall worlon farms is completed the largest single group of the farm workers will be asked to take work in the woopls on cutting sawlogs pulpwood and in other for est operations it is estimated that at least 60000 men will be required in the woods for the fall and winter meat packing plants base metal mines foun dries coal mines heavy ammunition and shell tilling railway track maintenance work construction and feed and flour milling are all included in the industries re quiring men from the farms during the winter time in addition of course to work in the woods last year and the year before the labour supply situation was eased very substantially by the help we got from farm workers during the fall and winter last winter we se cured over 100000 men from the farms and this year we will need even more said mr mitchell young farmers on postponement of military training will be given a continuance of their postpone ment while in other essential work during their slack season men will of course be free to return to the land whenever their services are again needed there actually the work which awaits the farmers in other industries during the offseason is of vital importance to the farmers themselves in part itinvolvea the pro cessing of their own products as in meat packing and feed and flour milling to some extent also it ensures supplies that the farmers themselves must have gen erally t he work for which the

with your right and mine to display individual initiative that amongst free men is an intrusion by politics and we have the right and the duty to combat that intrusion the spirit of competition must continue to be one of our main driving forces our platform must be based on reason and rational reform e must vigorously protest against being overridden by ordersincouncil and regulations by boards and commissions who have had no responsibility to parliament or people the interests of organized labour and the farmer must be increasingly recognized in the notion economy and the nations income
