Hoarders are people who buy and store away goods beyond their immediate needs. They want to be in an unfair position over their neighbors. Hoarders are traitors to their country and their fel- low citizens, because by creating excessive and un- necessary demands for goods, they slow down the war effort. There is no excuse for "panic buying" and hoarding. Everyone will have enough, if no one tries to get more than a fair share. Hoarding must stop ! Every unnecessary purchase makes it more difficult for Canada to do a full war job. THERESA [A W [TEA/1W 1' [MAID/1V5 It is against the law to buy more than current needs. Violation of the law is punishable by fines up to $5,000, and imprisonment for as long as two years. AVOID ALL UNNEOESSARY BUYING - AVOID WASTE MAKE EVERYTHING LAST THE LONGEST TIME POSSIBLE In cases where it is advisable for you to buy in advance of your immediate requirementsâ€"such as your next season's coal supplyâ€"you will be encouraged to do so by direct statement from responsible officials. - TH E WA R-Tl ME-PRI‘GES AN D" RiAgD’v-E ; 1;.o'Aa’D-f :e- OTTAWA, CANADA Bird Chatter Two local outi along Maple sideroad about nine o'- clock Sunday morning and saw fif- teen kinds of birds between Rich-, niond Hill and the third of Vaughan. Bcskles the more common ones were bluebirds, horned larks. juncos. kill- deer plovcrs and meadow larks. Lai- er in the woods west of Maple theyi wren and red breast- ed nuthatch. and along the roadside.i both crowned and crowned mourning and quite a large flock of red polls,. Altogether the list of those totalled 2;") species. and the sandpipâ€" enthusiasts were SH \V II. \Vlli01' golden I‘llhy ringlets. doves seen . er, pheasant and ruffed grouse were- hcard but not seen. I The storm last Friday brought birds seldom seen near buildings to the feeding places of our village bird-lovers. Thus it happened that looking out the window on the flagged terrace whom we hoped to see a cold and hungry Robin or two. we saw to our surprise the brownâ€" headcd Cowbird and his soft-brown colored wife, in fact five pairs of them. With them ‘» :50 other incin- bers of the hlac‘kbird family: the Bronze Crackle (known on the At. lantfc coast as the Purple Grackle). the ubiquitous Starling and, a real surprise. the Red-winged Blackbird. It was a delight to observe the Red- winged so close at hand, to see his velvet black in contrast to the met~ allic coloring of the Starlings and Grackles. Besides the blackbirds. Robins and Song Sparrows and Juncos came confidently and fed eagerly. flying to the bird bath for a drink before they went off for the night. The Chickadees and Downey Woodpeckch of course made their usual visits. Two b’rd calls that are familiar to us who visit the Maple bush are the “Kee you" of the Red-should- ,IIS . ton ered Hawk and the flicker-like call of the Pileated Woodpecker. The Pileated is rarely seen in this disâ€" trict as its haunts are the primeval forests. Next to the rare Ivory- ibilled this is the largest of all North American woodpeckers. We have made many pilgrimages to the Maple woods to see this bird. Fin- ally following the sound of his drumming we went in some distance and waited for some time in the silence. Then he came towards us flying low from tree trunk to tree trunk, suddenly flasned into the sunlight his bright poppy-red crest and the white markings on his great black wings. There, too,. we have seen the Brown Creeper making his way up the tree so close to the bark that he seems to be a bit of it. flying down to begin his ascent of a near- by tree. In contrast to him is the Nuthatch who flies to the top of the tree and makes his way down, head first. Golden-crowned. Kinglets, Juncos and Tree Sparrows also re- warded our last trip to the Maple bush. And from a thicket came a. soft “quirt, quirt”, the call-notes of the Hermit Thrush. We welcome any contributions to this column and appreciate those sent in this week. “So you've just had a medical ex- amination. What did the doctor say?” “He said that I was in pretty good condition, but that I shouldn't start reading any continued stories.” A native is the fellow who recogâ€" nizes you as a stranger and there- fore increases the price of the article or his services. It takes 216 sheep to keep a soldier clothed. Of course, it would take more if the sheep were on a 40-hour week. A thing of beauty is usually after a movie contract. A woman doesn't consider her out- fit as being smart unless it makes other women envious. SA Vii emigration: CSCllAPMETAlS magma , m RICHMOND HILL TUESDAY, APRIL let THURSDAY, APRIL 16th. 1942.

For some time she served as District Vice President and was be- loved by all for her noble character and gracious manner. As ner years advanced she grew in grace and her presence at W.M.S. meetings was always a joy and inspiration to her associates. The memory of her de- votion to the Master and His work will long live as an inspiration and guide to all who knew ner.
