ÏT LIVING TO SERVE AND SAVING Among thë many things that call for serious consideration consideration at the present time, by no means. the least important is ths urgent need, as we have already pointed out, of thrift amongst all classes of the community. r The people of the Dominion generally have liberally responded responded to the many and various claims which have been.made upon their private pockets. But we must not be blind to the fact that much more remains to be done. It behooves behooves us to cast a glance into the near future and it certainly requires no great prophetic gifts to realize that large and adequate sums of public money will be necessary to meet the well-merited needs of wounded and disabled soldiers and the dependents of our fallen heroes, buried Somewhere in the soil of Europe. • The mistakes of bygone bygone years must not be repeated in the present instance. Veterans of other wars have been known to die in the poor house. Brave men, of whom a frenzied nation shouted itself hoarse, have had to beg for bread and ex- . hibit their crippled limbs to a callous crowd. There has been, in other days, an almost cynical prejudice against"" "the old soldier" that has broken the heart of many a valiant trooper. These things must not be allowed to happen again. No shattered man should live in terror of want. To sweat the widows and orphans of the honored dead* would ldad us with an infamy we cannot bear. No excuse avails for such a crime. If our sons owe a duty to the nation, the nation is also under obligation to its devoted and heroic sons. It is our honest pride that Canadian soldiers are the best paid soldiers in the world. We cannot take a second place as regards a generous treatment of our crippled warriors who return 01 the wives and children of those slain heroes whose return is nevermore. Those amongst us whose duties, age or physical unfit- : ness have prevented from going forth to fight, are not thereby -set free from rendering any service, or from making sacrifice for the common cause. The lads in the shell-torn -trenches, and the' boys on the waters blue these have gone out with honor ; let us take care that we do not survive with shame. The country is bearing a heavy burden and each man's shoulder is needed at the wheel. The Canadian Patriotic Fund at this very hour urgently needs replenishment and that same need will : grow with each succeeding day. The country's exchequer is already under heavy, demands that will yet be heavier. Extravagence in any formais wicked. Waste is worse, for it is criminal. The call for thrift, and to a practice of wise economy on the part of everyone is à call to the service of the Empire. Not thrift? for the sake of self-interest ; but thrift, paradoxical as it may seem, with a view to spend. There is such a thing: as saving to give. Absorption that leads to diffusion. It is this saving, in order to give, to which attention is called to-day. There are untapped resources in every household which can now be liberated for the national cause. The patriotic planning of the housewife, who serves a wholesome,. wholesome,. hut less costly dish, in order that she may save a little to give to the Red Cross and Patriotic Funds. Ihe patriotic saving of a cigar, the giving up of some much- desired little luxury and the devoting of the money thus saved to help forward the work of relief amongst injured soldiers is a form of national service "within the .reach of everyone. It is but penning the merest platitude to point out that the giving of what we can readily spare, and that which we shall never miss or feel, is not giving at all. It is the bestowal of a bone upon à dog. It involves involves no sacrifice and it is essentially sacrificial service which the Empire demands and needs, and which is vital for our preservation and freedom. We need to measure the extent of our sacrifice by the sacrifices of those who freely have offered their limb and life for King, for Country and for US. Selfish ease and. self-indulgent sloth are enemies of the Empire "to-day. Because the British Navy has proved, so invincible, we are; apt to forget that the : mightiest military power in existence" seeks our starvation and slaughter and that = but for the valor of-our lads, we,- should know all the horrors of Belgium. Our remoteness from the fields of Europe, and the might of the Navy have given us safety, but no excuse for selfishness* Russia., and France regard drunkenness as treason.; Ger- - many views the first :as national robbery, and we must treat personal selfishness as a drime àgàiïist the Commonwealth.' Commonwealth.' : ' ;-i ; , --. -, „ .... To-day-all- our ^energies of sacrifice and service are - needed to secure and maintain that freedom of which we believe the British Empire has been balled to be the champion, and custodian. We must live to serve, and save to give, that we may bring this cruel war which has beèu forced upon us to a swift and final end. In the light of these . considerations what is your individual duty, reader ? 1 " : * ' : ■ i*. - bay or fight: ; > x V- The Churches. PORT HOPE FAIR.
