F. Hep'burn revealed this week at Queen’s Park. The Ontario Government‘s plans in this direction entail setting up a “Soldiers of the Soil” committee in each county, and once this prelim- inary organization is completed, mustering the full strength of this Province’s young people at useful tasks in the furtherance of war ac- tivities. First duty to be assigned to the “Soldiers of the Soil” will be to as- sist in the harvesting of Ontario’s crops. Faced with an acute short- age of farm labour, the Ontario G0v- ernment is enlisting the co-opera- tion of local school boards in keep- ing primary schools closed until September 16th, and secondary schools until October 2nd. “This will make available to the farmers of Ontario a vast reservoir of farm help,” Mr. Hepburn said. “Not only will it permit farmers to keep the assistance of their own children during a period when they would normally be at school, but it will also make available for farm work a great number of city child- ren. In each county a committee has been set up to include the agri- cultural representative, school in- spector, superintendent of employ- ment offices. warden and reeves of the various townships for the pur- pose of registering both the farmâ€" 'ers who require assistance, and the schoolâ€"age children willing to fill in at this work. “Young people who are trained this year will be just that‘ much better equipped to help out in 1941. This war is not going to 'be over in a day. We must look to the fu- ture and prepare ourselves for what is likely to develop in the immedi- ate years to come.” Under the direction of the On- tario Government, a special com- mittee is now engaged in working out details of a scheme to put across a gigantic drive for the sale of War Certificates. When.the proposal was first made by Mr. Hep'burn to the Ottawa Government, it was enthusi- astically received, and the Province is now proceeding with a plan which will enlist the help of all the Sec- ondary School girls. They will be enrolled by the local Soldiers of the Soil Committees and school teachers will be asked to help by exercising supervision over the plan’s operation. A Brazilian schoolboy was locked in the school cellar as punishment for some minor dismeanor. After a few minutes he cried out that he was b’eing attacked by a snake, but the teacher ignored his appeal. When finally the door was opened, the boy was found dead with a serpent coil- ed around his neck...The teacher committed suicide. “The Dominion Government con- siders the sale of War Savings Stamps and Certificates as one of the most important links in the whole chain of war undertakings,” Mr. Hepburn said. Here is a tangible way in which every child can assist, in the sale of stamrps or by earning money for their pur- chase. It is a two fold program that cannot fail to be of immeasurâ€" able worth." Little Renfrew was generally in trouble. Findirig that words had but little effect upon his child, his father resorted to sterner measures. A neighbor, watching him chastise the boy, noticed with admiration that Renfrew gave no outward indication of pain. “Don’t you ever cry when you’re beaten, Renfrew?” he asked. “What’s the use?" retc small boy. “The old man’s THE LIBERAL, RIUHMOND HILL, ONTARIO Round In) from fora/Ito with a// experts-email 7 Day: at Be/vede/e flore/ - $39.40 7 Day: at Me koya/ flore/ - 41.05 7 Day: at Royal Muskoka liore/ 39.75 returted the ’s deaf!” The Ontaric greed to pay I road to Malto Chinguaccusy Township Council has made a net reduction of 1.8 mills in the 1940 tax rate. A 26-year-old hackney mare own- ed by a Caledfln Township farmer gave birth to her first foal last month. A concerted effort is being made by police to enforce the 30 mlle limit on the Newmarket-Sutton highway. Twenty-three hundred silkworms are required to produce one pound of silk. Thistletown‘s volunteer home guard unit met for the first time in the community hall on Wednesday of last week. Two shoe factories, one in Bramp- ton and one in Aurora are reported to have received orders from the D0- minion Government each amounting to $66,750 Hon. W. P. Mulock, Pestmaster- Generai, announced this week that parcels to Canadian soldiers in Ice- land will be carried at the rate of 13 cents a pound up to 11 pounds, which is the same rate charged on parcels to England. Miss Agnes Macphail, once U.F.0.- Labor Member of/Parliament, has been chosen by the United Reform convention to contest the Saskatoon federal seat in the August 19 by- election. More beer for a dime was ordered this week by the Ontario Liquor Control Board which ruled that, be- ginning October 1. all Ontario hotels must serve a 91/2 ounce glass of beer. Some hotels now serve a seven ounce glass. The town of Black’s Harbor in New Brunswick. with a populatiOn of 1.200, has forwarded subscripâ€" tions to Ottawa forinterest-free war bonds totalling $51,000. This sets a fine example for other patriotic Can- adian towns. It may not be gener- ally known that Black’s Harbor is on the'Bay of Fundy and‘has the largest sardine factory'in the world. â€"Globe & Mail. v When the battle of Britain has been won, “then the active service components of our defence forces will be operating in overseas theatres in co-operation with other Empire forces.
