Phone 6 PORT PERRY, ONT. Ray Henshaw, Proprietor Good Thinking Construction of a new reinforced concrete paving on the Canadiere Road .in° Quebec City made it neces- sary to. lower, by about one foot, a four-hundred-foot section of concrete- ing working cables. One Friday afternoon passing mo- torists wére amazed to see three large trucks distributing two-hundred-pound blocks of ice along the roadway, were apparently being buried in the ground, A few passers.by stopped to see the ice placeil carefully under the. couduits in spaces from which the earth had been removed. With" six tons of fice under the conduits, the rest of the earth was removed and the job was literally "on ice"; then a general guessing competition started on the question of how long the ice would take to melt, The conduit run sank slowly, but gently and uniformly, nad by Sunday new level, . The ice method proved to he safe and economical, the only preliminary work done being the breaking up of the conduits for a short distance near the manholes to free: the section, and the placing of braces to prevent the structure from slipping sidways. ------ MORE SPACE TAKEN FOR MILITARY USE Five thousand feet of addiional space in the Williams Piano building - has been taken over by the Department of National Defense for harracks pur- "| poses, Mayor Coleman informed the Oshawa Council meeting on Monday night. The military authorities will take over the space at the same rate as is being paid for the original space. It will give the Department of Na- tional Defence close to 30 0,000 square fleet.

A national emergency now exists and there is something which each women -can do to assist her country in this emgerceny, members of the commitee "point out. IF YOU ARE DOWNHEARTED Should you be feeling discouraged or disgruntled, think of -Waltér Callow. Mr. Callow is a patient in Camp Hill Hosptial, Halifax. Injured in an R.F.C. plane crash in 1917, since 1930 he has been completely incapacitaed by spinal trouble and arthritis; . He lies con- stantly in one position, He cannot use his hands. He is blind. Eight years ago his wife died, leaving a young daughter to be cared for. Mr. Callow has a hobby. he keeps himself, posted on current happenings, and' composes verse to cheer up' his friends. He sells some of his poetry, too. His nurse tells us that "the spirit and 'courage of this patient is a source of inspiration to all who have the privilege of his acquaintance." < If you think your lot is a pretty remember Walter Callow. : \ } Maclean's Moghzine| B '| THANKSGIVING SET FOR OCT. 9 Qanada's Thanksgiving Diy will be Monday, October 0. The Secretary of State Department issued the following announcement: "In accordance = with the usual practice, the second Monday in Octo- ber, which will be October 9, has been' fixed for the observance of Thanks- giving Day for 1939.

By radio | § tough one, you might, now and then, ; 5 Extracts from Serator Meighen's Address . "* There has been confusion in the public mind and in the mind. of many of us up to this time-as to just what this. Government purposed ;.some confusion and wonderment as: to whether we really were at war or were not., On the latter phase the statement of the honourable leader of the House (Hon, Mr, Dandurand) and the corresponding statement of the leader of the Government in the other Chamber, have set" all our minds at rest. It has been the commitment of the present Administration, as I have always understood it, "that Parliament would decide w hat should be our participa- tion in any war. Apparently this has now been inter preted in somewhat extended form as meaning that Parliament has to decide whether we are at war or not... Well, it is over now. "I do not think any good has come from this special way of putting tothe country the status of Parliament. Parliament always decides anything within the competence of Canada, to decide. No other body 'and no one else can- tdo so. I'have never felt that. it has been within the Sompetenes of Cunada to decide whether we are at war or not, I do not reel so now. Iither we are part of the - British Empire or we ave not; and we know we are a part, We cannot be at peace while the head of this Empire is at war. © The pronouncement or Laurier stands, and will ever stand. © We could, without physical restraint, refuse to be at war, by moving outside the circumference of this Empire; I say without physical external restraint, tor Great Britain would bring none to bear. But Canada as member of the British Commonwealth cannot so retuse, We have witnessed a longstruggle for peace, a struggle all could follow, a struggle carrying in its train impatience - and ternal attacks, involving indeed passing humiliation. We have seen the prestige otf governments deteriorate be- . cause of exhaustion ot every possible effort to restore the reign ol comnion sense and save the world from torture. We have now to admit that allthis has failed. Surely there are none So perverse that they cannot see the magnitude of the issue. Germany claims that the Treaty of Versailles © was severe. Oh, yes, it was. You cannot fight a great war and look forward to a generous peacg. You can look back - and wish there had been one. - '1 do not know whether we should have been better off if the Treaty had been more generous. There are those, and they have same vindication today, who in the light of what has happened since believe - that the lreaty erred on the side of. confidence in Germany, on-the side of liberality. But whatever may be said about the 'I'reaty, is there among reasonable people who believe in right, who believe in justice between man and man, not - in propartion to thexindividual strength of each, who believe in those 'rights of man, in those treasures of civilization _ which alone make lite worth while for us, is there a single being who can be blind to the issue which faces us now? Germany, or rather thé man wha stands in sole command of that country, says, "We must have room to live," and in order to have room ta live he invades Poland, 'where the density of population is double that in Germany itself. He gave his word, on the honour of his country, first to Austria, then to Czechoslovakia, then to Pojand, then to Britain, and at a moment opportune for himself he threw every covenant --away and declared for the rule of blood and iron, " If the principles of Hitler-are to prevail--and they will prevail unless the Allies win--then the world as we have known it will have passed away, It will mean-not just another dynasty in Europe ;it will mean another form of the whole constitution of humanity. It will mean that here, is nothing left to us worth living for, I come to the duty .of Canada, and to the means "by 3 which that duty is to be discharged, as revealed by the Government. There are some things contained jn the Speech from the Throne 'and in what has been said fy the Prime Minister, particularly in his remarks of Sunday, the first of September, for which I am grateful. The Prime Minister said, "There is no home in Canada, no family and no in- § dividual whose fortunes and whose freedom are not bound ____ up in'the present struggle." Those words are not a platitude; they are true, as true as ever fell from human lips. Learn those words, then your own minds will tell you the truth that flows therefrom and what rational beings must do so . that that struggle may eventuate in the only way which will mean life to the people of our country. The Prime Minister also said that we take our 'stand "for effective co-operation by Britain's side." I am grate- ful for those werds. That decision flows from oid: Li premise. Let us remémber that decision, and let us stad as one people to make-eertain that those words are trans- lated into'deeds, and translated withéno avoidable delay, and that no guilt falls upon Canada i in respect of our duty in this str uggle.- This is pertinent only because the truth is pertinent, and will ever be pertinent, that the.big issue is not here; it is over there. German submarines along, the Atlantic coast may be suppresed or destroyed: that does not make Canada secure save for the moment. The final security of jour country stands or falls by the success of the ar f Britain and of France. - Keep ever before you those words of the Minister of Justice: "Shame on the land which says, 'We accept defence from you, but if you look to us to help you in the most crucial struggle that ever the world has seen, you look in pain . _ PROTECT YOURSELF with Reliable Fire Insurance Place Your Insurance with HAROLD W.
