His name was not Obadiah then but Harry christened him and took him home and, im- mediatly, a beautiful friendship sprang up. They became boon com- panions and were almost insepar- able. Almost but not quite. Harry's military duties took him places where Obadiah could not follow so something had to be done to provide him with a home. Of course every sell respecting family has a skeleton in its closet bu Harry was too tenderhearted to shut Obadiah "lit in any stuffy old closet. A bright idea struck him right between the eyes. Why not rent Obadiah to some kind person where he could be of use and earn his keep. So he advereised--"8kple- ton to rent. Amiable "disposition, Eats practically nothing. Good company." Strangely enough there were askers and Obadiah found himself the temporary property of The Army Show and his travels began. The Show found a place for him in some of their acts.

Lynd were overjoyed last Wednesday to wel- come home their third son. Flying Officer Wesley L. Lynd, who after spending five months in Hospital in Belgium and England, wss brought home on the hospital ship Letitia, and by hospital train to Toronto. F/O Lynd was the pilot of a se- ven crewed, four engined Halifax' bomber brought down in I dog fight with enemy fighter planes on the early morning of December 18, last. Telling of the fight wo Lynd said that they had dumped their load of bombs over Duisburg, near Esen, and were about one hundred miles on their return journey back to England, when out of I cloud appeared a number of German Jun- ker ntrhters In the struggle that ensued three of the engines on Lynd's plane were set. on fire and one wing burning when they made a. crash landing in a ploughed field in Belgium about ten mi es inside the fighting lines. F/O Lynd feels very keenly the loss of three members of his crew in the battle, for as he said after training and flying together for eight months they were just like a family, being very much attached to each other. Mr. Lynd had ankle and foot badly smashed up in the meelee, but is well on the way to complete recovery. He is a grad- uate of Weston High School. He has three brothers in the ser- vices, L. Albert B. Lynd, the eldest brother has recently graduated in the Radar school " Barriefield. Gough B, V., another brother is in the postal corps overseas. and Eric S. Lynd, the youngest brother is an nadir operator marine detector Ion H.M.C.S. Tturo. Passing Comments The Weston Lions are only "go- getbers". they are also good work- ers.

We will be voting for or against a new system of living-a foreign 1?eiehild known " "State tRteial- iam." The group of thinkers," or, as they term thetrtrelvea, the "Professional Social Students," who are sponsoring the C.C.F. Socialist Program are asking us to let them take over control, not only of the Government of Canada but of our everyday lives. F _ They propose to "plan" everything for ua-to control all. production and distribution. That is, they will decide what is to be made and by whom -uthat is to be grown and by whom -_ the quantities --the styles-the distribution -- the selling prices and wages. All these and hundreds of other controls and regulations will become I permanent part of our existence, " decided by the C.C.F. politician! and administered by I vut umy of Government “can. Under any such system we would become like animals tn a zoo. We would lose our individual freedom just as com- pletely as though we had lost the wart Not one Canadian in one hundred would knowingly vote for any such pro- gram, but not many Canadians realize that the C.C.F. plat- form involves any such scheme. or else they do not believe that the Cer. would actually attempt to carry it out. That is where we may fool ourselves because the c.cr. National Convention recently went on record that whether it takes five or fifteen years they do intend to put into effect their complete Socialist program. So, if you prize your individual freedom, be sure to vote on election day against the C.C.F. candidate in your riding, because every such candidate is positively committed to the complete C.C.F. Program of State Socialism. It C.C.F. candi- dates tell you they are not so committed, they are either misinformed or are misrepresenting the facts, became that is the basic plank in their platform. and any Cer. candi- date who fails to support their policies is subject to "recall" and is dropped from the party. tw. don't foot with that Social. dynamite. Get out and vote anirkt the C.C.F. and let the Social Students realize once and for all that Cana- dians want none of their European and old country non-em. Now, just I word of warning to voters. You will be told that these advertisements are the voice of "vested inter- equ"'--that the Public Informational Association is W' sored or supported solely by "big business“. Any trueh augments are tulle. This Association is not spoetrared or toMrolled by any group, me ll it com“ dtmettr 0' ndlnctly with my political party.
