Thomson attended the funeral in To- ronto on Saturday of the .n a Mrs. Wm. Walter. Master Paul Hudson Father Time is a dual personality, le is a veritable Dr. Jekyll and Mr. rlyde. At one and the. same time h s kind and he is cruel. If we want proof of this, we need only cast our thoughts back to t v e days of 1U15-18. Since - that period Time graciously healed most of the wounded Canadian hearts which then ached in loneliness and begped nit- eously for one more touch of the missing hand and 'ips of those stilled brever in the mud of Europe. But Time al*o dulled our memories of the horrible pain and grief which swirled n the wake of predatory German generals. Onl fourteen years after 1918, when German vciousness began to rise again as a threat against world peace, Time had blurred our minds. We do not readily recall the inhuman leartibreakin-f? experiences nf the first World War. There was no over- powering urge in our breasts to .stamp out the smouldering fire of conquest before it 'became an un- manageable holoeaust. Time had so softened our recollections of the tragedy in that short space, the TO- awakening of the German militaristic spirit did not warn us to meet and overpower it immediately. Have we yet learned how wicked Time can be? It is only four yars ago since the stiff-necked goose-steppers ran bav- onets through the frail bodies of olc men and women in Poland, led little children into fields to shoot them down with machine gun bullets. Bu! three years have passed since the Germans bombed old and young civ- ilians out of the towns and cities o: Belgium, to choke the highways against the approach of onoosing armies and then lx>mbed and mach ine-jrunned these helpless creature? along the roads. Will we let Time make us forget that now? It is abcat three weeks since the N T azi monsters looted) the city o" NTaples and mercilessly murdered In habitants, because they expressec their dislike of the German cause Tnn we forget that also? For four years, thousands of th truest of our Canadian vouth, destin ed to live happy lives among us, hav Sunday was Baptismal day in the Jnited Church, when four children /ere given the rites: the infant aughters of Mr. and Mrs. Vern.

Or are we hot-pin- those bitte memories of the past since 1939, ar en -ing in our hearts a grim detenu nation to end this senseless parade of wars for a lorn*, long time ? There is a message being sprea throughout the land in these days o the Fifth Victory Loan campaign Its numort is, "Let's not becom complacent." Hut litre is a yet more potent s!o gan for us at this moment. It i contained in one word: "REMEMBER." If we. will keep geren the inde scribablc horrors of tnis war, U w will remember that those were ucr truted by the G- -man.-! and will b repeated again and a cr ain unless \v ly crush the German mili- taristic spirit, we won't need any warning against complacency.
