One item of business will be the setting of a date for the annual Court of Revision to hear appeals against the assessment. A larger number of appeals than usual is in prospect, following the re-assessment of the municipality made during the past summer. Steel production in Canada dyring in addition to the regular warn- | ings issued by the government and the fire underwriters, we have had the intimation from higher up that fire on the home front paralyzes the men on the fighting front; and he who burns _, uptime and matcrials in a Cana- a a Wap ig menasing our war effort ff, in proportion, helping Hitler. How vital time and ma- terials are to us is obvious. Two years of war have been mainly two years of preparation for us. Today the tide of victory is with us because at long last we are} reaching that level in production of war materials that allows us to produce gun for gun, plate for plane, tank for tank and shell for shell with the Nazi terrorists. So preventing fire becomes more than mere protection of the pocket book or bank account. It is a national duty of the highest jmportance, and it is not a duty that can be discharged by the mass. Rather it is a job for the individual citizen, and it is not a difficult job at that. It simply calls for continual vigilance on the part of each one of us and the determination never to take a chance with fire. If we make and keep a vow to do our part in pre- vention, not only during this week but continually, we will be helping to carry out that reconse- cration which we undertook only a few weeks ago at the request of our government. A CURIOUS SITUATION A curious. situation in one Pi our Ontario districts is revealed in an editorial last week in The Burk's Falls Arrow. The writer] expresses himself as worried over | the fact that in his vicinity, in Muskoka district, there is a ten- dency towards what he calls an "infiltration of Germans." Men} of that nationality are buying up| farms, garages, service stations, etc. There have been many changes in the ownership of local business places, the wri-} ter states, and invariably the new] owners are people of German ex-| traction. In the surrounding stores, parts of the district it has also} been noted that almost all the} road contractors have alien| names and are of alien birth. The Arrow editor has no sug-} gestion as to a remedy for the} condition, athough he admits. he| "doesn't like it." He would like} to have some investigation made| by the authorities, with a view to ascertain whether there is any concerted movement to se- cure control of that particular district for atfy ulterior purpose If what he says is correct, and he can surely size up the situation fairly, it should not be overlook- ed. Many parts of Canada are too well supplied with alien resi- dents for a country at war, but it isa big problem. People cannot be interned in a wholesale way just because they have foreign- sounding names, but still theré should be nothing overlooked at a time when all-out war effort is being urged upon the whole pop- ulation. v3 § Noted in Passing 3, % The recruiting convoy visiting here over Tuesday night was composed of a well disciplined and well behaved bunch of men, according to opinions expressed by local residents yesterday. They spread around during the evening, a number of them took part in a street dance on Main Street, and later in the Oddfel- in with the local people and in general good soldiers. Their return visit next week will be looked forward to.

A dam has been built and a house started. The local market, held on Sat- urday last week for the first time in several years seemed to be fairly satisfactory, with a good number of vendors present and plenty of demand for the produce.

More towels are needed for the bathioom, and the kitchen floor could certainly stand a coat of paint. The children need shoes. The car will soon need tires. Well, we buy a hundred new things every year. Scattered throughcut Canada are manufacturers who make the very things we need. Their products are on sale in certain stores within easy reach. Certain of these products, aad certain of these stores, are espe- cially fitted to take care of our special need. But which products and which stores? Which can we afford, and which do we think best?
