Great Britain has been obliged to take over 25 miles more of the Western front and will graduâ€" ally have to extend her front further. In England and Scotland the men previously rejected as medically unfit or discharged for wounds are being called up for reâ€"examination. The call to Canâ€" ada is something greater than the call (high as it is) for the loyal support of the Divisions we have in the field. It is the actual cry of the Empire for more fighting men for the preservation of the Empire and for the winning of the war. The Government Bill is designed to supply the reinforceâ€" ments necessary during 1917 and to supply these reinforcements promptly. The duty of the hour for every citizen is to back the immediate passage of the Conscription Bill. After it is in operation let us press for compulsory mobilization of the remaining manhood and the whole resources of the country. These latter measures are important and likewise extremely difficult, and will need time to be properly worked out. With compulsory enlistment of men they cannot be long delayed, but the first step is the supply of men. With the loyal support of the country the men could be enrolled within six weeks, and 25,000 men enrolled at once may be better than 100,000 a year hence. Let us never forget that men can be got into the trenches as reinforcements within six months or less of enlistment, but Divâ€" isions of men or Army Corps cannot take the field within a year of mobilization, so that we must look for very little help from the American Army until 1918. The Military Service Bill alone will supâ€" ply the needed reinforcements for the last months of 1917 and the first months of 1918. "Send us more men." â€" That has been the cry of our Canadians at the front for a year past. During April and May the Canadian casualties at the Front amounted to 23,939. What the other wastâ€" age in Canada and in England amounted to in the same period we are not told. _ It would probably mean a fighting reduction of at least 30,000. Against that reduction Canada has enlisted exactly 11,â€" 328 and probably not more than oneâ€"third of these at the very outside for the fighting units. This figure includes enlistments during the last two weeks of May when recruiting was stimulated by the announcement of conscription by the Prime Minister. Eurther, the referendum is not only a part of the British Constitution, but is repugnant to the principles on which the British Constitution is founded, namely, the responsibility of Ministers of Parliament, and of Parliament to the People. The British Constitution does not contemplate that a Government shall shirk its duty by forcing the Plublic to pass upon a measure to which the Governâ€" ment and Parliament are not committed. ‘The chosen representatives of the people, with their social knowledge, must take responsibility for all measures enacted, leaving it to the Public to judge them by their record as a whole. The problem of conscription has come to Canada in the form of a question as to whether or not we shall send supports to our men who have volunteered and are fighting in France. To that quesâ€" tion there can, of course, be only one answer. Few men would make the bald admission to themâ€" selves that they were willing to desert the men at the front. â€" But to some the issue may be clouded by the suggestion that conscription for Overseas is a new principle, and that a referendum should be taken before enacting it. Even, however, if conscription for Overseas were a new principle, which it is not, and even if the referendum were a regular part of the Constitution of Canada, which it is not, the practical and insurmountable objection to a referendum is that it in effect denies the request of the men at the front for help by postponing that help till too late. The people of Great Britain, who are a démocratic but practical people, adopted conscription without a referendum. The people of United States, who are a democratic, but also a practical people, adopted conscription without a referendum. If is was not essential in the case of these two great democratic countries, why. should it be necessary in Canada? It is a fact far less necessary. in Canada because in Canada conscription is not a new principle but a principle which has been embodied in our statute law almost ever since But even if the principle were not already written down in black and white in our statutes, it would follow that a referendum is necessary or desirable. _ Every Constitution must be interpreted in the light of common sense. The Constitution was made for the State, and not the State for the Constitution, and a construction which would let the State perish in order to save the Constitution is one that must be rejected by all sane minds. ‘The obligation to preserve the State is antecedent to and is preâ€"supposed by any Constitution. Confederation, and was reâ€"enacted by the Laurier Government in 1904 and 1906. If anyone doubts this, let him look at Section 69 of Chapter 41 of the Revised Statutes of Canada and he will find that "the Governorâ€"inâ€"Conncil may place the Militia on Active Service anywhere in Canada, and also beyond Canada, for the defence thereof at any time when it appears advisable so to do by reason of emergenâ€" Cy-)) ; If all would only unite and aim at a greater and more beautiful Weston it could soon be accomâ€" plished. _ One thing that must be done is to fix at once the entrance to the fair grounds. This will not take much money and yet can be made very effective. The grass on Main Street should at least be cut once a month, To give it a good appearance a proper filling should be used for filling in the subâ€" urban tracks so as to bring them level with the road. : This would also remove the mud holes that now so often exist between the tracks. The suburban company no doubt would do this if they were approached by the council or town clerk. It would give us a greater width to our street. A clean, clear track bed would give the street a little more uniformity. The improvement to the back streets has done very much to maxe those streets of a little more use. Traffic can be directed through these streets without being stuck in the mud. It also makes it possible to see Weston and some of our beautiful homes and grounds. 5 They have issued two thousand books. These givelin short, terse phrases the details of the town, facts only that are easily read and remembered. Copies of these are sent or given to men who would be interested. Most are busy men who have no time to read long details. The purpose of this book is to create an interest in these men about Weston _ The facts given will impress themselves upon their minds and cause them to look at Weston if they contemplate any change of factory or residence. Thus the work done by the Board along this lime is very good and effective. They are out after the men who make good citizens for a town. A further means of bringing Weston before another class of people is a circular letter just issued. Every Sunday School superintendent in Toronto will reâ€" ceive one of these letters. It tells of the Weston exhibition park and offers it as a free picnic ground for their Sunday School. It brings before them the fact that we have beautiful grounds upon the banks of the Humber with room for games, a track for races and safe bathing. Also the use of tables and buildings, with hot water are available. These are all that any picnic grounds can give. Arrangeâ€" ments have been made so that hot water can be supplied to picnickers. If the scheme works out right we should have a lot of people here during the sumimer. It means increased business and a greater Weston. Thus the Board is doing some work for the town. What is now wanted is the men of the town to set.to work and help in this great work. Build up the town on a sane, solid base. Let more money be spent to make our town attractive to those who come here. Let the town present an apâ€" pearance that will make an impression on every person who comes herfe as an ideal spot for their home. To do this every citizen must coâ€"operate. Money must be spent by the individual and by the corporation. Time and energy must be devoted to this purpose. Then you will get the resultsâ€"a lower tax rate, a more beautiful town, and a more valuable property. _ All_of this means more into your pocket. To make money you must spend it; but spend it wisely so that you will get a good return. )1 The Board of Trade are doing what they can to advertise Weston. Two large sign boards were phintedâ€"one for the C.P.R. line and the other for the G.T.R. line. These bring before the attention of all using the trains that Weston is a town with beantiful home sites and plenty of work at good wages. STUDY THE ADS.
