AN ARRESTING IDEA There is a man in Windsor, Ontario with an idea worth examining. He envisages his ipurchase of Victory Bonds as his personal support of his young nc'phew now serving in Italy. Explaining his plan to a friend the other day, he «aid that children were all girls. iSo he chose his sister's son as liis direct war interest. "It's funny how it works." he said. "When I bought bonds in the firbt and second loans, I measured my purchases by figuring' out how much r could oomifortably afford. But since I have begTin '<o think of my (bond purchases as my backing of this particular lad, I find myself thinking m terms of what he needs instead of what II can afford." ~ If this idea were adopted generally throughout Canada for the _ next campaign, bond sales might rise m starliin£r fashion.
