At the last missionary meeting it was pointed out what a help to the war effort the christianizing of the South Pacific Islands had turned out to be. Sailors and soldiers were given the best ot care once the Islanders found out they were Christians, which, of

course, reminds us of our pet missionary story The minister pointed out to

the native chief, that now he was a christian, he must keep one only of his fifty wives. ‘Pick one’, he said, ‘‘and tell the rest to go home”. The native chiet looked at the glowering faces of his wives, then at the missionary. He replied, “you tell them”.

Canada's Naval Power

CANADIANS HAVE WATCHED, with pride and interest, the rapid expansion of the Royal Canadian Navy during the past five years, Before the war, it comprised only about a dozen ships, while the personnel num- bered around 1,700. Now there are hundreds of ships and the Canadian Naval personnel consists of arcund 100,000 men, Canada is now rated as the fourth largest sea power in the world. Britain, the United States and Japan have navies larger but with the inevitable elimination of Japan from this list it is apparent that Canada will socn move up to thiid place. This rapid growth tn naval prestige is a remarkable one, for it has meant a great increase not only in the numbers of men and ships, but in naval bases, ship yards and the many other requisites necessary to keep @ pewerful navy afloat

The record of the Royal Canadian Navy in combat is a splendid one Recent information given out by Splendid One Mr peigig at rte Minister na the Navy, yore cut

that 109 Canadian ships participated in the invasion of Europe f our sailors taking part in the action that time the largest single convey which ever crossed the ocean was moved by the Canadian Navy, This convoy consisted of 150 ships, and carried more than & million tons of vital materials to the war fronts. During the past sum mer Nerth Atlantic convoy duty was carried out entirely by Canadian ships and tn addition the Canadian Navy is credited With sinking 13 surface ships It has destruction of

over, Canada has established a tradition as a naval power which she will endeavour to maintain in the post-war years Existing plans provide for a permanent naval but the Naval Minister suggested in his report that this number should be raised to 15,000 and that our fleet should consist of two airplane carriers, two cruisers, and light destroyers, This would call for an annual expendi ture of $50,000,000 which might be ecnsidered a large item in a peacetime budget. That will be a matter to be decided later At present the people of Canada may feel justifiably proud of the part their navy has played in defeating the Axis powers

Are Awaiting Development In | Canada's Western Northland

O developments singe the days of the Klondike gcld rush have focussed

so much attention on Canada's Western Northland as the building

of the Alaska Highway and the completion cf the Canol project. But during |

the past ten years this territory has seen a continuous and progressive min: |

ing development which, although less spectacular and less publicized, has |

nevertheless been a major factor in bringing this great hinterland into its! rightful place in the Canadian economy.

In that period the territory has vielded minerals valued at nearly $21,000,000, This does not include radium production in 1942-43, the

figures of which are not available for publication. Of this total $6,655,925 was produced in the last two years. Gold, radium-silver and petroleum products made up the bulk of this mineral contribution. Copper, lead, tungsten and several other valuable minerals have also been recovered in promising quantities.

It is expected that mineral produc- tion will provide the chief source of empleyment in this region during the postwar years. Impetus to mining in the Territories has been stimulated by the intensive search for strategic war minerals carried on as a sequence to the geological investigations and mapping work completed by field parties sent out by the Department of Mines and Resources Ottawa There has been considerable activity in the Yellowknife Distriet during 1944, More than 2800 claims have been staked there already this year and 70 mining companies pros: pecting in the district newest gold field is therefore receiv ing its full share of attention from the mining public even in these diffl- cult times, Construction cf the road Which parallels the Canol pipeline has opened up a new country for the prospector reconnais- sance has been carried out along this road as well the Alaska Highway during the past two years also likely to be more management of wildlife in region to ensure its industry

Africa. That is one reason why it Was necessary to ration tea Now here's the story. Since early

in 1942 a large part cf Indias tea- producing industry has been operat- ing in a front line theatre of war in Which tea planters have mixed agri- culture

with a variety of wartime activities. When the Japanese ine vaded Burma, the tea planters took part in invasion alerts and air raid precautions, and helped build military roads and airfields. They loaned thousands cf workers from the tea gurdens to the military author ties, and the network of communications they helped construct is today play- ing a vital role in the offensive against the Japanese in Burma In the jungle covered hills the planters set up camps which supplied food and medical aid to thousands of Burmese refugees Elephant trains carrying quinine, bandages and other SUppliggs Ruided by tea planters, pressed even turther into wild coune try in which refugees had to be ferried across raging rivers on rafts strung together by logs and jungle Vines, Doctors from the tea planta- tions fought epidemics while the wives of the planters nursed the sick,

1.E. Gooder - Why She’s a She

The question of why a locomotive is called a ‘'she” has been referred to one of the railroaders. He says:

“There are many reasons for this For instance, she wears a jicket with a yoke, pins and shields, She has an apron and a lap, tor, Not only does she have shoes, but she sports pumps and even hose while she drags trains behind her, She also attracts attention with puffs aod mufflers and some times she foams and refuses to work. She needs guiding and she requires a man to feed her, but most charac teristic of all is that she is much steadier when she is hooked up.”

Righting A Wrong

The price is too high.”

(his is the reason given, by mans

vator agents, for failure to interest. farmers in Registered or Certified seed. If this statement is true, it must be based on one, or hoth, of two suppositions They ure:

1, That mixed or ‘scrub’ eeed will give as good, or almost as good, a return per acte as will pedi- greed seed,

That the seed growers are inaking too large profits.

Both @suppositions are wrong. Generally speaking, yield, grade and quality, especially of wheat, are inferior in mixed stocks. Most mixe tures, found on prairie farms, con- tain early and late tw pes, rust resistant and rust susceptible types, poor quality types, etc. Remember that it is not necessary to buy expensive seed every year, With proper care, Registered or Certified seed will continue to produce a reasonably pure commercial crop for several years. Therefore, the cost of pure seed must not all be charged to the year in which the purchase was made,

The question of seed growers’ profits can be dismissed with a few words, It takes a mighty good farmer to be a successful seed grower. In most cases, these “good farmers” could make more money by producing commercial grain. Then, why don't they? Simply because they get fond of their pure stocks just as does the livestock breeder. They take a very real pride in their own high standards and do not measure success solely in terms of money income.

The price is not too high.

| A Dangerous Guessing Contest

oni The probable date when cease fire will sound in Europe is im- portant to us because almost every One in this country has a vital n- terest in the ending of hostilities. Given the approximate date, families of men overseas can begin to esti- mate the time which must elapse before they receive their loved ones back home agaio. Lubor has an additional interest in the date, in planoing for the transition petiod overlapping war production and the new production of peacetime goods, Business men, who must plot the future of their establishments with great care, are especially keen to have some one give them an ap proximate date of the conclusion of hostilities in Europe,

Thus, when at various times Mr, Churchill, General Eisenhower, Gen- eral Montgomery, Admiral Halsey and others have attempted to give the public an idea of the length of time it would take to fiuish up the military campaign, their words have been read avidly,

But io the wake of sueh state- meots there has been a wave of other predictions from ten thousand minor and less informed circles, Especially since “'D" Day, almost every man in the street has been taking a guess at the date of "V’ Day.

All of this might be harmless, were it not for the psychological effect that the confest has on people at large, For one thing, many are led into the belief that the war is almost over aod that the time nas come for some relaxation at home, Further, when the war keeps its furious pace for weeks after “\V" Day dates previously predicted, the morale of many people is unsettled,

In these crucial days preceding the final knockout, Canadians at home may again take their cue from Canadiass at the battle fronts. Over there none marks time, waiting for Germany to collapse. They are all on their toes, fighting as energetic- ally as at any previous period of the war, Over here our duty seems just as clear cut --- a duty which calls ws to work as hard as we have ever worked before, and to keep our production lines as vigorous as they have ever been before — through the purchase of Victory Loan bonds.

Danger From Bacteria Forming In Government Has Placed Restrictions Changes Made In Clocks At Gireen-

Milk Cans

With the exception of poorly cared for milking machines, there is prob- ably no other utensils which may add so many bacteria tc milk as the ship- ping can. Even where shipping cans are washed and steamed at the plant or factory, some moisture generally remains in the can, When the can is left with the lid on in a warm place, millions of bacteria grow in the mcis ture and seed the milk at the next milking. Lids should be removed and cans placed upside down on a drain- ing rack as soon as pcssible, so that they will dry out and bacterial growth will be checked. As a fur- ther precaution, the cans should be rinsed with hypochlorite. Cans used to carry skim-milk or whey back to the farm should be emptied and wash ed without delay.

The chief factors in the production of quality milk and cream are clean, healthy cows and = milkers; sound, utensils, properly cleaned and stertl-[{ {zed and prompt and adequate cooling. | Attention to those factors will prevent loss due to spoilage and will help raise the quality of Canadian dairy products, states the reprinted Spec- ial Pamphlet of the Wartime Pro duction Series on “Producing Pure

| Milk”.

The term “quality milk” or cream includes a number of factors. Milk should be safe for human consump- tion free from disease germs; have satisfactory food value as indicated by a proper content of butterfat and other milk constituents; be free from Visible dirt, and from unpleasant odours or flavours, and it should keep sweet for a reasonable length of time. ,

Fall tillage is proving valuable as a cultural practice for the control of both annual and perennial weeds While fall cultivation will not germ inate all numbers of wild cats, mustard, stink- weed and other weed seeds, will start growing, making it possible for them to be killed by low winter tempera tures or by late fall or early spring cultivation

The Third Reich

Is Now

Prostrate At The Feet Of Its Enemies

Nothing could express world opinion | better than a short paragraph from Sweden's ‘“Goeteborgs Posten" of, September 10th. This paper from a! persistently neutral country wrote: — |

“The Third Reich is no longer able} to seize the throats of its neighbours. | It will soon be lying at the feet of its enemies. The road home for Ger- man occupation troops from the Bal-| kans will certainly poss through Allied priscn camps. Now the battle for Germany has begun. The tramp of vast Alled armies is echoing along the German Frontiers. Wherever Hitler may look from his demolished workroom he sees nothing but fleeing or defeated armies practically isolated in the Balkans, the Baltic States, Northern Finland and Norway, with many divisions in danger in Holland, Denmark and Northern Italy, Germany's position is much more desperate than at the fime of the Armistice in 1918 There can be no doubt as to the outcome of the war. What experience have the Gtrman people of Guerrilla war- fare? De the Germans believe they can imitate the feats of the oppressed peoples of France, Norway, Denmark, Poland and Yugoslavia? It is not surprising that many races and na tiens who for more than five years have labouring under the Nazi voke witness Germany's predicament without feeling any or merey.”

daily diet. Toddlers get cereal night

and morning As school children it's their energy-starter for the day Even in their teen years they find it a good filler upper, both at meals and in between

Most youngsters like cereals and a lucky thing it is!) Topped with either cream or milk, the morning cereal either hot or cold, is a fine source of energy. Cereals combined with milk provide a good supply of those nutrients that children need for growth
