Several people have learned that with some surprise from the case of Adrien Ar- cand, Fuerher of the Quebec Nazis and his K>'oup of lieutenants, most of them native Ca >adians, who are now behind barbed wire. In time of war, says the Windsor Star , it does not matter so much where you come from us where your thoughts come from. No birth certificate will keep you out of the barbed wire pen if your actions and your talk carry "Made in Germany" labels. em E • There's a thrill In store to.' you when you see how much tire your money can buy today!

"At last, here it is!" exclaimed the owner, "I wonder why it is that one always finds a thing in the last place in which one hunts?" "I expect, mother it's because when we find a thing we stop hunting for it," remarked the child. T ?

We hear that the used car is worth more by reason of the new taxes, and that actually takes in every car on the road. The wise thing is to drive this thing of increased value with great care.
