PAGE SIX Juvenile Oratory Captivates Rotarians With Eloquence Smiling, campetent, paised, loquent Jacqueline Clarke, win- ner cf the Silver Cup in District Oratorical Contesta at Brighton, was guest-speakcr at the Rotary Club, Friday. Also as gucat was ber Grade VIII teacher, Mr. A. Robinson, wèo, in eulogistic terms introduceti ber ta the mcm- bers. With the self-possession that cames ta anc cntirely familiar with ber subject, Jacqueline de- livered ber winning atidres. but with improvisations that incluti- cd Rotarians themselves. Ber subjeet was: "Haw and Why School Chiltiren Can Help Win the War." Here is the text: Tbanks Rotarians. vau have belpedt t make a job of it this time. What! Bought Bonds ta the tune of anc billion, three hundred million dollars andi then some. Buy Bonds. wasnet rmy subjeet because school childrcn's poeket books arc not that clasa. We kncw you grown-ups would lend your inoney ta aur country and put Canada's Fifth Victory Loan over the top. I arn going ta explain "Haw', and '"Wby*' we ehiltiren can help win the war. There are many. many ways we shoulti and can co-operate. "Fats" must be coliectcd as tbey1 make explosives. We can not bamb Germany but ,ve can or- ganize groupa ta make certain al the fats in aur communities arc collccted. It la aur duty. "Tbink' haw many former pupils of aur achoals are gaing aver Germany for us. Remember sorne bave paid tbe supreme sacrifice for yau and I, others bave came back on a 'Wing and a Prayer." Mctals. papers, rubbcr and rags sbould be gathcrcd and given ta the Red Cross Salvage Fund. We may give aur extra pennies ta Junior Red Cross. I wl tell vau a fewv reasails why the Red Cross Socicty must have money. Our prisoners o! war, men and boys wvho fearlessly went into Dieppe. Our R.C.A.F. men \vho bit their target. Our navy boys who take traops. letters and parceIa over ai will bring oui. army and air force men back. The merchant marines. who get n-ecessary supplies ta aur allies, aIl these men mentioncti. wben in prison camps, depend on Redi Cross parcels for their existence. Our doctars andi nurses arc given medical supplies that belp case the pain of aur waunded. la not gatbering salvage an casier job in comparisan? Certainly it is. Get busy tomorrow and colleet. Gardens for victary are a neces- sity. Thc mare vegetables we belp raise the less strain on army trucks, trains and boats that transport the food. We are wbat we eat and vege- tables help build straigbt bances, strong tectb, rebuild bloodcells and muscles. It is our duty ta keep bealtby. Wben aur men are figbting for aur freedom we should take care of aur body. Boys and girls, wve have flot fifty dollars for a bond but 1 know wye do receive the odd twenty- five cents and we can purchase War Savings Stamps. We can buy chocolate bars. gumn or some suit- able and useful articles and do- nate to the Sailors' Ditty Bags or give ta our War Auxiliary for boxes for the boys o! aur -district wbo are overseas. We must take extra care of aur possessions. books, clothes, bi- cycles, skates and ah aour belong- ings because replacement means unneccssary production. Wear your sister's or brother's band- me-down with a smile. 0 Great Britain and Russian schooi children need butter, sugar, meat and canned goods s0 when mother says, "Please spread the butter thinner." Do it. A great number of miners have enlisted in the services and what is better, Freedom «or Heat? You can take a hot water bottle ta bed with you, make a hug-me-tight out of an old sweater or put your cold feet an your bed mate. Do not grumble over the ration sys- tem o! cammodities. Remember we live in an unbambed country. I hear the aider girls complain- ing about boy friends being ra- tianed due ta the war 50 we can be thankfui we are schaol child- ren. Our main and chief war effort should be ta study and make goad use o! aur scbool time. Generalis- simo Chaing Kai-Sbek, realizing how preciaus this reservoir a! leadership was ta Cbina's future, ardered callege facuities and stu- dents ta continue their ciass in- stead of entering the services. Japan made China's calleges a mîlitary objective. The obligation of every Can- adian boy and girl is ta learn. We may be Canada's future leaders. Who knows? Our air force is going over Germany, our saldiers inta Sicily, Italy, Kiska, and have gane into Dieppe, aur sailors are risking their lives in the perils o! the ocean ta keep Canada's future secure for us. Now Ratarians of Bowmanville, you can prove ta themn by your active interest in children's educa- tian and health that the boys and girls o! Canada will be worth their sacrifices. Thanks was moved by High Schaol Principal L. W. Dippeli, wbo lauded Jacqueline's poise, enunciation and emphasis, and the enterprise o! ber parents and teacher in belping ta develop the abilities and outlook of such an outstanding pupîl. He laoked for- ward ta welcoming her ta High Sebool where she was sure ta win mare prizes. President Arthur Hardy, i extending the thanks o! the Club, said: "Lots of boys have their eyes on this young lady and they are net alI in Rotary.' Business of the club had ta do with Rotary signs at the town's outskirts. Len Elliott reported: "Tbcy'll be donc in the sweet by and by." In regard ta the Rotary Rink, Bob Stevens said: "Give me some belp and we'll get it donc right smart." Sa volunteer Ro- tarians and Higb School boys wili have it under way Wednesday and Saturday, with ice ta follow the vagaries o! nature. George James reminded: "This is the last evening for Commencement at High Scbool." And the reminder was put forward that nomination night ought ta sec some Ratarians an band at Town Hall. Will the future of Canada be decided withaut aur knawing it? Or do we know what we want and want it enough ta stand out and fight for it? The Navy, Army and Air Force are recruiting manpawer for ali three services an a co-aperative basis as the result of a new joint recruiting palicy.

FORCES IN ITALY The Postmaster General bas is- sued an expanation in connectiari with mail service ta Canadians fighting in Sicily and Italy. There were delays an mail gaing by sur- face, due ta three reasons: security reasans in England, waiting for convay, length cf journey. One steamer carrying 800 bags cf mail for Canadians was damaged by enemny action, delayed tbree weeks. The average elapsed time, surface mails, posted in Canada THURS., DECEMBER 2nd, 1943: for delivery in the U.K. is ý28 days, and between there and.the Medi- terranean theatre, 21 days. The present situation is better. Al surface letters are sent direct from New York to North Africa by U.S. ships. It is expected after the United States Christmas rush has subsided parcels will also go that way instead of being trans- ferred from England by convoy. "Blue" air letters, however, since the middle of July have been promptly delivered to Italian bases. ' B.HS.
