They may not have a good word to say for conditions in which they had to fight and live for those long weeks and months and years, in training, in reserve and at the front, but they have nothing but fond recollections of the Salvation Army and its services. And now a new war finds the Salvation Army again preparing to go to the front with the soldiers, to render the social welfare services dictated by the Christian spirit of‘ kindness. ‘ | Injured While Skiing.

Neutral shipping is to come witkin the embrace of the convoy system, which involves a great extension of responsibility, for which ample provision has been made. The launching of five new battleships, proof against air attack, and the rapidity with which disâ€" abled. ships are put back into commission, together with the continual launching of smaller navy craft, point to the feverish activity on the home front. The Brifish Navy has borne the brunt of the war to date. It alone has made possible the coâ€"operation of the component parts of the Empire. The fact that its strength is increasing as the conflict proceeds is something for which we in this country, in common with other Britishers, cannot be too grateful.

That, of course, is arrant nonsense. It is true that there are hundreds of thousands unemployed in Canadaâ€"but hundreds of thousands fewer than there were. There are also more than 1,200,000 totally unâ€" employed in Britain. Would a picture of these depict Britain‘s war effort? It is a ridiculous idea. Mr. Hepburn suggests that the Canadian unemâ€" ployed should be given a chance to enlist. Some, of course, are not fit physically; many, indeed, are unâ€" employable even in civilian pursuits. Some have alâ€" ready enlisted. When enlistment is resumed, others who can meet the requirements will have the opporâ€" tunity. But the idea that Canada shauld have gone on enlisting men and enlarging her military forces without limit, in a war where the British land casualâ€" ties to date have been practically negligible, has noâ€" thing to commend it. The money required to mainâ€" tain such forces can be used in Canada‘s war effort to much better advantage until the forces are needed. : shown.: Says he: C |d‘;}f&ivhi'6wlifivnuhouam- "If they want to show the extent of Canada‘s | , then we must proâ€" war effort, let them show the hundreds of thouâ€" Imgol:?m.d mr"ucm sands of unemployed who are walking the streets, wrmurl interenrsbeges nronmrceroame es o among the poer and unfortunats=at home 11th, : und ~a yenerots response is â€" ‘The Intermediate boya‘ and girla‘ classes of the U.
