Some did nct read the outside, Canadians who have aways shown confidence in their country are earnestly invited to exchange the bonds they now own for bonds of the new issue. By so doing, they will render less difficult the task of providing for the future finances of the country, will enhance its credit and will greatly assist the Government in the present period of worldwide readjustments. No money will be asked for and no new bonds will be sold at this time. It is proposed to limit the present conversion to $250,000,000, but the Government has the right at its discreâ€" tion to increase the amount if Canadians indicate a general desire to continue their investments in the securities of their Dominion. The subscription books will close on the 23rd of May. I earnestly seek the active support of my fellow Canadians in making this conversion, which is one of the largest financial operations our country has undertaken in recent years, creditâ€" able alike to Canada and its citizens. provided by the bonds they exchange. THE dark days of the War, Canadians loaned to the INGovernment of the Dominion many hundred millions of dollars to enable the operations of the Allies to be carried to a successful conclusion. When Canadians loaned their money to the Government, they received bonds which were promises to repay them the sum loaned with interest at the rate of 5% or 5!4% per annum. On the 1st of October next, $53,000,000 of these bonds become due; on the 1st of November, 1932, the maturity will be $73,000,000; on the 1st of November, 1933, $446,000,000; and, in 1934, $511,000,000 must be provided for. It would not be prudent, either in the interest of the security holders or the country itself, to wait until these loans become due before providing for their payment orconversion. Action must be taken well in advance of the due dates to protect the credit of the country. ‘The Government believes this an opporâ€" tune time to afford Canadians the opportunity to exchange the bonds, which they own maturing in the next few years, for new bonds of the Dominion of Canada carrying interest at the rate of 44% per annum, which is a very attractive return. Prior to the maturity date of the present bonds, those who accept this offer will, of course, continue to be paid interest at the rate as To the Holders of NEW UNITED HYMNALS Disâ€" _ just sang from the inside, or could EeCV I F e ow s APPEAREC IN T TEr ; nct read the sign on account of the C EeswA | too bold effect, so took the bocks The Teeswater News says the Unâ€" home with them _ There were inat | _ Mr Matt.

The bride was our next neighbor before hew parents moved to Egremont a year ago and they both have been members of Knox choir. We wish for them many years of happiness. Miss Maud Thompson came home from Toronto last week to spend a couple of weeks‘ vacation at her home here. She returns to hospital duties June 1. Mrs Porter visited last week with her brother, Robt Lawrence and famâ€" ily, Glenelg. Miss Margaret who will sorely miss his companionship. It is with sadness that we write of the death of Dr G. M. Leeson, which took place at his home at Varney on Thursday last. The community have lost a kind neighbor and many have lost a real friend. The very large atâ€" tendance at his funeral was a token of the esteem in which he was held. Our sympathy goes out to all who will feel his passing, especially to M‘ss Margaret Marshall spent Sunâ€" day in Durham with her friend, Miss Saunders. e Our W.M.S. met the past week at the home of Mrs J. M. Marshall, 22 ladies being present. Several of the members read of mission work in India and Mrs T. McAlister read an interesting letter from Mrs Chas. Rut"~orfard who with her husband are missionaries in India. The latter is a tbrother of Mrs McAlister. _ The roll call was answered by a verse on ‘Fear.‘ Mrs Marshall served lunch at the close and a social hour was spent. Mr and Mrs Geo Grabham from near Owen Sound, were visitors over the week end with Mr and Mrs D. Marâ€" shall and Mr and Mrs W Caldwell, and the Lothian family at Dromore. At cur service Sunday our pastor spoke from the words found in the Book of Job: "Yea,all that a man hath will he give for his life" or in othes words "The love of life" and we should value the life that Gad has given to each of us and live it for His honor and glory. _ Are we living for the few brief years of this life alone or for the endless years of eâ€" ternity? 20 CHILDREN LIVING WITHIN 20 RODS IN UPPER TOWN The issue . of the Review itwo weeks ago, quoted Durham‘s populaâ€" tion as 1797 as taken by the Assesâ€" sor this Spring. Were he to go the rounds again it would come to over the 1800 mark, for in the last two weeks on the Upper Durham Roead in the town limits, from the Review Office corner west, the population of our town has been boosted by 21 citâ€" izens and citizengâ€"toâ€"be. In a short stretchâ€"say 20 rods west from this corner,â€"there are twenty children and we doubt if this can be repeatâ€" ed in any similar distance in town. The arrival in town of Mr Dewâ€" ar, wife and seven children from Shallow Lake, living in the former Robert Scott home, makes the numâ€" ber swell up. _ Also in that distance live two of the famous Caswell trip lets and upon entry of their fourth year of life in Durham, they are able to give a good account of themselves.
