RAMAGE, Local Dealer Phone 6, Durham The life of this little child may depend on the PROMPT ACTION of The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. Centralized here under one roof is every facility known to medical science for the effective prevention and cure of childhood disease and deformity. More than 9.000 little children were treated here last year. ONEâ€"THIRD of these children came from Ontario Municipalities outside the City of Toronto. Most of them were children of parents unable to pay the low Public Ward rates. But they were not denied any treatment or care that would assist in their recovery. Somewhere in Ontario, before this hour has ticked away, a little child will be stricken or injuredâ€"Pneumonia, Poliomyeâ€" litis, an automobile accident, or one of a hundred or more diseases or accidents will have found a victim. 7 We appeal to responsible, charitable Ontario citizens for donations to help us meet this deficit and for practical encourageâ€" ment to continue and expand this work next year. Please . . . the life of a little child may be saved because you were kind and benevolent today. Send your donation, large or small . .. NOW. ‘THIS SPACE DONATED BY THE DURHAM REVIEW Air Marshal Wm.

In spite of the tempâ€" crary system of regimentation to which Canadians have voluntarily submitted, the government in power can be attacked without the Canadiâ€" an replica. of the Gestapo tossing the attackers into the Kingston penitentiary without ceremony. Similarly, we in Ontario may reâ€" joice in the knowledge that a group of Liberal members who have stood under the Hepburn banner were able to spurn their leader‘s rescluâ€" tion without the danger of losing their jobs or having their families harrassed by the friends of a dicâ€" tator. â€" The ramifications ‘of this resoluâ€" tion and the forces at work behind it are, of course, disturbing. Ottawa knows that auite apart from the criticism directed the government‘s way by Conservatives who may or may not be actuated by political exâ€" pediency, there are many citizens of this country who are irked by the apparently slow and methodical proâ€" secution of Canada‘s part in the war. We are an up and doing type of people who prefer explosive acâ€" tion to quiet, steady pressure. Strangely enouch, most of this feeling of dissatisfaction with what Canada is doing is caused by the Germans. ‘They haven‘t bombed England yet. Canada‘s present war policy was strongly urged by Great _ Britain, whose sgovernment visualized a terâ€" P. RAMAGE. Editer and Proprieter TORONTO President H. J Cody announces that the senate of the University of Toronto has approved of a reduction in the number of subjects required for junior matricultation by memâ€" bers of His Majesty‘s Canadian forces. Ordinarily, junior matriculaâ€" _tion comprise six subjects of two |papers each. The senate of the uniâ€" | versity has decided that five subâ€" | Jects of two papers each will be sufficient for enlisted officers, men, and women in any branch of the service. aerial bombardment of British indusâ€" gigantic supply centre for the AF lies was prompted by the same °Xâ€" cities to English rural districts; inâ€" troduced an elaborate plan of blackâ€" out for all of England, and set up a system of home defense unsurpasâ€" sed in her history. ‘Thus it seems reasonable 1O DC: lieve that Prime Minister King‘s govâ€" ernment might well take a l.eal’ from the note book of Lord Haliâ€" fax. On Saturday last this British statesman took the cccasion to anâ€" swer critics in the homeland who comnlained about the elaborate preâ€" cautions against air raids which cautions against air raids which have not come. Lord Halifax had two observations to make: first that the absence of raids might be exâ€" plained by the very efficient defence set up, and second, that because there had been no big scale raid up to today was no reason why there would not be one to morrow. Let there be just one big air raid by Hitler‘s flyers, raining destrucâ€" on British industrial centres, and present feeling against the Britâ€" ishâ€"sponsored Canadian war policy would vanish overnight. .
