We ask you to accept this wrist watch» and‘ may you long be spared to wear it. Signed on behalf of yOur friends of Maple and‘ vicinity. Liberal classified “ads” pay good dividends. To these young men who join our fighting for-ces we extend our sin- cere congratulations. We ‘admire them as they are the saviours of our freedom. We pledge them our support on the home front and pro- mise that everything we can do to make their army linfe pleas-ant we wil'l gladly do. We give them our pledlge that we wil‘l‘ try our best to keep things going on the home front and that they shall not want for the best in supplies and‘ fighting equipment. Harvey has volurxecred to do his full duty in this‘ war. Let’s pledge ourselves to do our utmost. ‘ Marple, March 19, 1942 rOWWWWWW The youth of probably no other age in history had the privilege of living in a day of such challenge and' opportunity. The threat against our Freedom andI our Way-ofâ€"Life by the Dictator Nations is a testing time and' the [burden of this testing time falls most heavin upon the shoulders of our young men. If our civilization is to (be saved, if our way of living is to be preserved‘, it willlbe saved and- p-reserve-d‘ [by our young men who man our air- planes, our ships andI make up our fighting forces on land. No matter how much those of us who do war work in other capacities may help the final test of Victory will be in the hands of our men in the fight- ing forces. Our fighrting forces are made up of just such young men as Harvey Who is with the R.IC.A.F. We kn0w these young men are made of the right kind of stuff, that they are second' to none in the world, and that in the final test they will prove victorious andI in the end Victory will (be ours. In these days of extreme stress and strain, the mast critical in the long history of our Country and Empire, it is a source of pride and satisfaction that our young men in ever increasing numlbers are volun- teering for services with our armed forces. Tonight we gather to 'do honor to Harvey WiLson-, a boy from this community who has voiunteered for service with the Royal Canadian Air Force.

We had next to no furniture until the Quartermaster took pity on us and gave the military scale. Comforts we had none and the poor officer had one night when she did not have even a bed because we were so short: The next day Our Group Com- mandant arrivedi by car and in the back was reposimg a box in which were comforts which arrived from Canada and among them your quilt. My N.C.O.s insisted! that this quilt should go on my bed‘ and so I write to tell you how much it is appreâ€" ciat-e‘dn and how at night after perâ€" haps a hard and difficult day I lie rind? think of the people in Canada who are doing so much for us, that we‘ may not miss too greatly the home touchtes which so many have so bravely given up.
