Last Chance To Register :As this issue of the Gazette and Chron- icle goes to press, the majority of cit1zens, we presume, have af~charged their obliga- tions under national registration. There are some, however, whO have not, and this is the final day. Wednesday night, at ten o'clock, registration places close, and penal- ties will then be in order for those who have failed in this natwnal duty. If you have not yet regtstered, go and do 1t RIGHT NOW "AnJ All', Well" This remarkable tribute to Great Britain appeared in a recent issue of the 11Daily Constitution," published in Atlanta, Ga., and was sent to the Gazette and Chronicle by a former resident of the town, Mrs. Camp, daughter of Mrs. George A. Ross,' who with her husband, is a resident of that American city. It reflects in no uncertain manner the spirit that is abroad in the American republic. "There must be, today, millions of spirits that walk, bravely, across the length and breadth of beleaguered Bri- tain. The spirits of those men of the ancient race who gave to her the greatness I ·th••t is knowing miraculous resurgence as, once more, the fate of a human Jiberty is laid upon her hands and hearts and cour- age.

But we do say that 1110 neglecting (w_e wlll not say refusing) they termination, that bulldog atubbornneos, that unconquerable spirit which cannot live enslaved. The wisest seers among men cannot say what yet is to come. But this all men may know. There io a very lovely heart of civilization and of freedom threat- ened by an obscene force, an indecent re- turn to oavagery sparked by unmoral ~m bition. 'The shadow today lies over an ancient and a noble land. It darkens the graves of poets and philosophers and martyrs. It hangs threatening over the very birthplace of human liberty and hu- man progress. The vultures soar over England's "rreen fields and stately homes, they swoop upon the humble cots and quiet hiils. We on this side can know little of the one factor that must, m the final ac- counting, decide the 1ssue. That is, the spirit of a people awakened and determined There must be a marve11ous story, bemg told on the pages of history, in Britain to- day. The spectacle of a people arising, as one, to defend to death the land they hold so dear, must be a tremendous thing to watch. Even Hitler has been awed. What other interpretation can be put upon his petulant and ridiculous complaint that 11home guards" can be only violators of the code of war, to be shot against a wall when captured? The world has never witnessed such absurd effrontery as an appeal, by thJs man, to any code of war. He, and Germany, of all races, have most ruthless- ly and heartlessly scorned the codes of war, - of honor, of humamty, of human decency, whenever It served their foul purpose. H1tler cannot conquer Brttam We who knoll the history and the spmt and' the meanmg of Br1t1sh ClVJhzation, we who kno\\ the courage that arms her people, we who know the Jove of country that fills their souls, know that no invader can stay "There British single This roya1 ,This for this ~liiji~'i'of war, little Fifth since the is that it various guises.

But who are these tyrants? Hitler, a paperhanger got trimmed by a bunch of Jews and he has had it in for the Israelitish GRAY COACH LINES I I race and every one else ever since. Mus- . solini was that organ grinder that once came round our streets with the bar ,, organ and "da monk." He lost his monk and is now in league with the raving maniac of Europe. Hitler has taught Mussolini that by playing Fifth Column tricks which is by striking fear into the hearts of honest men by treachery and undermining the confidence of other na- tions he will be able to put it over the reot of us until their "bluff is called" but they have overlooked the latest slogan, "There1l always be an England." - Rev.

Seek Help of Weekliea The part the 'weekly newspapers of this country are playing in the present war emergency is illustrated by the fact that Mr. Lash, Director of Public Information, made a special flight from Ottawa to Cal- gary to attend the Canadian Weekly Newll- papers conventiop being held in that city, and to discuss Informally with the weekly editors many of the problems of the coun- try, points out The Bowrnanville Statesman. Mr. Lash had sought the co-operation of the weekly newspapers in several direc- tions. "Sometimes," he said, ul am inclined to think that the weekly newspaper editors of Canada underrate their importAnce In , our social and cultural life."
