THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 1942 PAGE THREE THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO MORE RATIONING Now that tea and coffee are ra- tioned as well as sugar, everyone must cut down on the amount of these commodities they drink. Tea, especially, of which Cana- dians drink so much, and the ra- tion of which has been cut in hait will be difficuit to conserve. The * average yVarly consumption of tea in Canada has been 40,000,000 * lbs., or 3.8 lbs, per capita. Here are a few ways to make that tea ration iast longer. '. Measure carefuliy the amount o f tea and boiiing water put into the pot. One level teaspoon of tea or less and one large cup of boiling water will be enoligh for one cup of tea. Brew the tea for a least five minutes, before pouring in order to get ail the good out of the tea. As a war-time measure don't add the extra spoonful "for the pot" as good hostesses are accus- tomed to do. In this way, and by drinking more milk, and other unrationed beverages when possible, Cana- dians may be able to cut down their consumaption of tea by hall. A pound of tea should make 200 cups. PLANNING WELL AHEA» In Great Britain, Cadet Corps which provideboys of under-ciratt age with training before they en- ter the army, now number 60,000, compared with 13,000 a year ago. Thus the next draft of men for the Army will be composed, not of raw recruits, but of partly trained men. The Reserve Army ot Canada f ills this place-in Bowmanvilie with the 2nd Mid- lands. BEST 0F LUCK, STUDENTS Friday was a hait holiday for most high school pupils - . . a well deserved one incidentally, since it was a reward for the hard work of both boys and girls in * ~ ing the cadet inspection a success. In spite of the f ine * weathil most of these industrious studerits found it necessary to utilize the hait holiday in study for the on-coming exams. Best of luck, students, in the June finals. -K- REMEMBER BOYS OVERSEAS Have you noticed the letters fromn Bowmanvilie boys overseas, how they appreciate mail, be it a letter, a box ot food or knitted goods, or a carton of cigarettes as well as the -home town paper, which some atfectionately cail "the old rag", "the bugle"e, etc. Everyone has triends overseas ... let us ail make an effort to write cheertul and interesting letters, fîll boxes to the brimn wth choco- late, tea and ail those delicacies which are hard to get in England, or if time does not permit either of these, send cartons of cigarettes to friends overseas. Even at the risk ot making that one and only man ln your lite jealous, re- member the boys overseas. They appreciate getting letters troin their own generation, trom school, chums who know the same people and do the same things they did when they were in Canada. -K- UNDERGROUND FACTORIES Underground tactories are ai- ready in use in Britain and it is tound that subterranean con- ditions are as satisfactory as sur- face conditions, as f ar as the working of delicate tools and the LARGER QUOTA RECEIVED A quota larger than usual has come to the Redi Cross rooms t% - o or three weeks for the ifaterials te arrive and be pre- çared for sewing and knittiag. At 4hat time the various organiza- tiens suppiying workers to Red Cross -rooms wiil be notitiesi and /the work will start. Red Cross workers are urged not to iay down their knîtting aeedies for the summer, since there will be more work than ever betore for the local Redi Cross to do. New workers will be heartily welcom- esi at the rooms on Temperance Street, to heip complete this large quota.

Canada: Amerlca's Problem by John MlacCormac This book gives an excellent picture of Canada's place both in the Empire and on this continent. While many readers will disagree with some of Mr. MacCormac's conclusions, they will be stimu- lated to individual thought by his reviews of certain tacts, and cer- tain points of view. Mr. MacCor- mac believes that Canada has a great future, not as a colony of Great Britain, nor as a satellite ot the United States, but as a nation in her own right. He be- lieves Canada should take part in world att airs more actively, in- stead of depending entirely on Great Britain's protection. Can- ada, he asserts, should realize that as a member of the British Com- monwealth of Nations, she has a voice in world affairs and a part ia the peace atter the war. "Canada: America's Problem" was writtea shortly betore the United States entered the war and accordingly does not discuss the probiem trom the viewpoint of two nations at war. The whole book is written in a concise, in- teresting style, touching briefly on almost every aspect of Cana- dian lite, both in relation to Great Britain and to the United States. The writer is a Canadian and is able to, give a comprehensive view of Canada both poiitically and economically. This book is oh- tainable at the Public Library and is heartily recommended to every Canadian . .. indeed to every one on this continent. Klee Wyck by Emily Carn This is the tirst appearance o! Miss Carr, a Canadian by the way, in literany circles.

The name o! the book means Laughing One and is the ladian Name for Miss Carr. The book is obtainable at the Public Library. Lion* Bicycle Club Lions Bicycle Safety Clubme Saturday. Mn.
