There will be much deeper satisfaction, however, if by the time the Torch leaves Halifax for number 10 Downing Street, the Loan shall have been over-subscribed by many millions of dollars, and if thousands more of Canadian citizens are represented in the subscription lists. One of the primary motives in sending the Torch to Great Britain was to do something unusual that would demonstrate to those living on the British Isles that they are not alone in this struggle. The larger the number of Canadians who buy bonds, the more impressive will that symbol be when it is landed on old country soil. nun My buy“ By M. A._-._A.

RED CROSS MULTIPLIES YOUR WAR~WORK DOLLAR In last Week’s issue of The Liberal an appeal was made by the local Red Cross for women to sew. It is an appeal which must not go unheeded. The war is gather- ing momentum and the need for Red Cross supplies in Britain’s bombed areas is so great that there must not be any slackening of war work during the summer months. The women of this community, in common with the women in all communities in Canada, are doing a wonder- ful job in war work. In fact We think when it comes to real work and sacrifice they put the men folks to shame. However the appeal is made for more workers. Surely it is not too much to ask of us to give a few hours work each day to a job we can still accomplish in the safety and comfort of our York County homes. Warm clothing for bomb victims, quilts, knitted com- forts for civilians and sailors, sweaters, gloves and mitts all are needed and the ruthless hun over England takes no summer holidays. An appeal for workers for the Red Cross must not go unheeded, and we are confident volun- teers in abundant numbers will be found. Canada’s {lictory Loan Torch is speeding closer and closer to Prime Minister Winston Churchill, a symbol that expresses the determination of Canadian people to finish the job. ..- - . -.. .

In planning a dOnation to war work, don’t overlook the Red Cross Society. Your dollar given to your local branch of this organiza- tion is multiplied many times by the devoted work of a band of noble women who toil long hours in work rooms and in their homes, knitting and sewing, all for the cause of Empire. There has been a commendable response to many very worthy war funds, but deSpite the much over- puxblicized “administration costs” We know of no better opportunity for your war-work-dollar than through the Red Cross. Money donated to your local Red Cross branch goes to purchase material for the sewing and knitting of needed supplies. When planning a war-work donation, don’t Overlook the Red Cross branch in your own com- munity. PROTECTION FOR THE CHILDREN Richmond Hill Council is to be commended for heed- ing the appeal of the Public School Trustees for added pro- tection for children crossing Yonge Street. To cross this busy highway is a hazardous venture even for an adult, and it was too much to expect children to negotiate this crossing without assistance. It is a healthy sign in a municipality when those in authority are ever on the alert to afford protection to its children. We trust parents will co-operate with the efforts of the council and school board and urge on the youngsters the necessity of using theYonge Street crossing protected by the police officer. THE CHALLENGING RECORD OF CONQUEST Poland surrendered uncenditionally twenty-six days after she was invaded. Norway was evacuated by British troops twenty- three days after the Germans first landed. Twenty~four days after Belgium and Holland were at- gckled the British Expeditionary force had evacuated via un irk. . Thirteen days later France fell. The Yugoslav army gave in after ten days of fight- ing, and eleven days later the Germans entered Athens. It took thirteen days to conquer Crete. And the end is not yet in sight. Never in the history of conquest has such a tempo been maintained by an aggressor nation. In the face of these facts it is the wonder of the age that some people in Canada still look lightly on the war situation, and appear to have a poor realization of the plight, of human freedom. .- 3 This is a life and death struggle. To win will take the best effort of every man and woman in the British Empige.

WAR ON SPEEDERS Tell your friends it is no longer permissable to break the speed limit in Richmond Hill. This paper has for a long time advocated steps to strictly enforce the traffic regulations here, and we welcome the police action which is now bringing scores of offenders to justice. Richmond Hill does not want the revenue for fines. The only hope of the authorities is that everyone will obey the speed limit, but apparently the only way to make some people do this is to fine them. We hope those summonsed for‘ infractions of the traffic laws will be severely dealt with and that the penalties will be heavy enough to make the motoring public realize that Richmond Hill intends to make the streets safe for those who use them. We have no sympathy with the argument of those who say it will hurt business if you fine speeders. A speed limit, like any law or byâ€"law should either be enforced or rescinded.
