To win the war for us the R.C.N. and the Merchant Navy is being continually enlarged, bringing ever greater responsiâ€" bilities to the Navy League. Ontario Division offices are at 1118 Bay Street, Toronto. ine Hon. Angus Macdonald, Minister of Defence, Naval Affairs, recently said: "No work in the war effort is more important than that of the merchant seamen. The products of Canadaâ€"tanks, guns, muniâ€" tions, foodâ€"would be useless to the war effort if they were not tranc. In a statement issued in Washington, Lieut. General Macready, head of the British Army staff there, gave the reassuring news that less than one out of every 200 convoyed British ships has been lost by enemy action. In addition, he pointed out "Empire navies have inâ€" fiicted severe punishment on the enemy‘s forces at sea, sinking 5,250,000 tons of enemy merchant ships." 1 The year 1941 had seen 10,000 airplanes and 3,000 tanks sent to battlefields abroad, carried in the ships of His Majesty‘s merchant navies, including 2,000 of them "free of charge" to Russia. Think of the thousands of merchant seamen from Canada and England and Australia and South Africa,‘ in almost defenceless ships, who risked their lives a score of times in that year to get the goods and arms delivered. Think of the men of the Empire‘s Royal Navies who, although in armed ships, stood daily and hourly watch and risked their lives too, to get the goods through. Some recent statements in the daily press by officials of the British and Canadian governments regarding shipping, convoys, and merchant seamen should give us all reason to think gratefully of our merchant in a cup, then fill the cup with water. T’hen dilute this solution with three more cups of water. This stock solution, if kept in a tightly stoppered bottle, will retain its strength for a week. Use a teaspoonful of this solution to two gallons of drinking water, and it should be thoroughly mixed and allowed to stand for at least ten minutes before using. If these directions are followed, badly polluted water can be sterilized within ten minutes. ~ The public is reminded that unpasteurized milk may carry germs that cause typhoid, scariet fever, tuberculosis, diphtheria or other infectious disease. Impure water may cause typhoid fever, and he.:;& authorities warn that no water supply can be considered safe unless it is treated. Moreover, there is literally no opst to vacationists to render their water and milk supply safe when they are out in the country. The process by which germâ€"free milk and water can be had merely requires a little work and continuous thoughtfulness. | To sterilize water: Mix up a stock solution of chlorine by rubbing to a thin cream a teaspoonful of chlorige of lime with a little water , The. bulletin warns of the dangers of infection from i;npure water and milk, and supplies necessary practical details as to. protective f '_._phdto-m" engraving and elecâ€" Gratitude To Merchant Seamen THE WATERLOO CHRONICLE [ . ns Tutstiss Chronicle.

Occasional help is defined as farmerettes, threshers or help engaged for short periods. Of 368,955 rural residents in the Western â€" Ontario Region, â€" over 300,000 of them now have their sugar coupon ration cards. This has been made possible through the efforts of some 4,000 volunteer women recorders, who brought the Wartime Prices and Trade Board project to a successful conclusion. In many centres the job was comâ€" pleted in fewer than four days allotted for the campaign. . ‘ 300,000 Receive Ration Coupoys If city folk are paying a visit to their rural cousins they now obâ€" serve the courtesy of bringing their own sugar or else their ration card.
