GomING WIN-THE-WAR CONVENTION IN TORONTO. On Aug. 2nd and 3rd--An Ap- peal to the Citi= ' zens.

King re- cording secretary, of the convention, which has its headquarters at 76 Adelaide street west. In announcing its policy the committee says: Believing as we do that in this crisis in the affairs of our &ountry it is of vital importance: 1. That Canada shall dedicate all resources of men and means to the 'Winning of the War. 2. That if we are to justify out national existence, to succor our living and be worthy of our dead. Conscriptive Measures be immediatey adopted and enforced to maintain the strength of our forces at the fromt and to discharge our full duty. in the existing emergency. 3. That a National Non-Partisan Government be established for the vigorous prosecution of the War. ~ 4. That all patriotic elements in the country which place the Winning of the War above all other consid- erations be united, to the end that their strength may be made effective | to overcome selfishness and indiffer- ence, and that the people of Canada may be dedicated anew to their high destiny of service in the War. And. deeming it essential for the welfare of Canada that all citizens 'of Ontario who share these beliefs shall have an opportunity of express- ing their adherence to these princi- ples and of ensuring their enforce- ment. - And being convinced that patriotic Canadidns can render no higher ser- vieé to their country, than by uniting our people to "carry on" with in- creasing vigour to the end. : We therefore invite all public- spirited citizens, of whatever politi- cal faith, to attend 'an Ontario Con- vention in Toronto, the Capital of the Province, on Thursday end Fri- day, the 2nd and 3rd of August next.
