Keep Your Chin Up ••Keep yaup'" chin up, there'll always ue an England," was the cheerful comment of a ~oung lad of about ten years as he passed th& Gazette and Chronicle door the other 1 day. That. observation, intended for his 7;""""·~:~~:~~i,,.h~;a~lfa stimulating effect on all 'i: it and is the type of com- ment that should replace some of the half- hearted opinions that many older people are guilty of expressing. Gloom chasers such as this young lad are a definite aMet to the country in time of war and his ex- ample might well be copied by many of his seniors. Of course there'll alwaxs be an England. While many dark days doubtless lie ahead, the light is already beginning to shine through. The weaknesses of the enemy are being sought out and penetrated. Eaeh day brings a British victory 24 hours nearer. ---,,-J,'l of th8:{strong bulwarks ~~~~:~~~~t~~o,to bi"'held this year despite the war, ac-press announcements. our opinion, can be counted i~~~~~t~~m~i:~in f:e battle on tb keep' IIP the which h: -~:n 1~!':; in importance-and rig ly oo, since started. Directors o~ these fairs :¥~~~~~~;:;.~~ obeying the injii~ction Qf the f to carry on as IJSUal,' and to one • of them would 'be a tragedy distinct loss. ' fairs give an impetus to farmers --who pride in breeding, importing an~ exhibiting the better classes of horses, cattle, poultry, etc., to say nothing of farm produce of the field and garden variety, and, what is•just as important, they main- tajq a spirit of social contact between rural dwellers. "Meet me at the fair" is a slogan which has a significant meaning. · So we are glad that the f'lirs are to con- tinue, and we pledge them' every support as· an important national asset, May their shadow in our rural, life never grow less. Church Attendance Needs Spiritual Background The decrease in church attendanc~ , re- ferred to in an editorial in these columns two weeks ago under the heading, "The Church 'fakes a Holiday," has evoked this from the Stouffville Tribune : · "The· Whitby Gazette in an able editorial last w~ek,1• condemns the action of certain ~hurches that close their doors for the summer months. FortunatelY none of them go tha~ far around Stouffville, al- though many of them ~onfine the Sabbath worship to one service on that day, usually dropping t he evening worship, The Whitby editor will f ind a responsive cord in his op1'osit ion, but there is one thing that he did not tell us how to cope with, and that is the seiw1ce of worship where the people juet do not come to worship, the service where a ' normal congregation of 160 on Sunday dwindles to 20 or 25 people. All in all , ' th~ suqject should be a live one in these days when so many people feel in- different ,to the House of God. • Our reply to our esteemed Stouffville cotem brie:i:ly is that "it is the spirit that quickeneth", and there ca ll be no real de- sire to go to church without a spiritual ba~kground. Religious apathy finds its answFl ' ,n pa~l.Y empty churches, and if , ' people >yili not j o to church, if they do not ·• ha{e. ~~>, l!liild \q go, efforts of ministers and ci)Jl!rl\ to l'ntt~act" them will be of no avaiL . .S~Il"~*iOnal :sermori topics, and 11special" •lllb~lC'.bave been tried In some places with -. o'ri!y ,partlal success. In time their appeal •loses 'ground, and echoes are to be heard in church auditormms. The late Rev. Wm Allan sa1d that people often told h1m on Monday that although absent m body from the church on Sunday they were there in spirit, which caused him to wonder as he looked over the empty *'e\\ S on Sunday whose spirits were in them. Yes, we agree with the Stouffville editor that the Subject is a live one in these days when so many people feel indifferent to the House of God. Tax Exemption Issue a Lively One At the annual meetmg of the Ontario Municipal Association ,the questiOn of tax exemption will be a hvely one. It is pomt- ed out that in Toronto alone, exceptions are as much as the whole assessment in Hamil- ton. Comparatively speaking, similar con- ditions exist throughout OntariO. A dead set will be made at the meeting on public utilities. Some contend that these utilities should be taxed, as they come into competi- tion with private capital called upon to pro- vide for high taxes. Public utilities, these critics hold, should pay the same propor- tion as other businesses, and those who use them should contnbute. Here again Whitby and most other places are affected. In Whitby exempted property owned by the federal and provincial governments and the County of Ontario, would if privately owned be assessed for over two million dollars. This is more by far than the value of property from which taxes can be collected. Enemy of Rumor Must Be Avoided In an address in Whitby last week Col. Frank Chappell, of Oshawa, told an audi- ence of over 400 citizens that one of the ways Canadians could help the Mother Country to make a valuable contribution to the winning of the war was to be constant- ly on guard against rumor which he said was a foul jade, which might create and cultivate the spirit of defeatism which would be very useful to the enemy, as it had in other countries, also a spirit of falae optimism. · Col. Chappell a.l.ked hls hearers •to refuae to listen to rumo~ spre.ljder~. antl Blso to guard against passing along rumors they hear. This was sound, timely advice, sueb as is needed in Whitby and many other places today. •• Col. Chappell might have gone further and warned citizens ag&inst making" any statements upon which rumors might be based. They, sh<i1,ild also be eareful -2f their actions. :Many a remark made thooghtless- ly may lead to something serious. " -Junior Farmera to Gioe An Amb~lance Junior Farmers and Junior Farm Women are not only doing an excellent job on the farms of Ontario, but they have already subscribed $575 toward the $1,750 needed to provide an ambulance for the Red Cross Society, states A. H. Martin, Assistant Di- reetor of Agricultural Representatives, Ont. Dept. of Agriculture, who is in charge of the fund. The euggestion that Junior Farmers and Junior Farm Women purchase an ambul- ance for the Red Cross was first made in the June issue of the "Junior Farmer News" which goes to all Junior fann or- ganizations each month from the Agricul- tural Representative Branch, and was en- thusiastically received by the Juniors. It is expected that every Junior Farm Organization in the Province will contribute to the fund. The ambulance, a standard, fully equip- ped, four-bed vehicle, will be purchased through the Red Cross and will carry a name plate indicative of the Junior Farm- ers and Junior Farm Women. A Drowning Hazard Few Thinlt Lily pools, fish ponds, brooks, and other water to be found in back yards eonstitute a grave drowning hazard for children one and two years of age. Of the children of this age group who are drowned 'each year, by far 'the grel!'fer '/lumber -n\~et death in their homes or nearby, according to statis- ticians of the Metr<lpQlitan Life Insurance Company. Cisterns. cesspools , and irriga- tion ditches, barrels, vats, and other liquid containers, and even bathtubs have been responsible for such drownings. The statisticians call attention to the significant fact that more drownings take place among one-year-old baliies than among persons of any other age. From the insurance company's mortality ' records, the ~~tilltieians set forth incidents attending some Of theae pltlful deaths. A typicillly traglc~case was that of a sixteen-" . months-<>ld girl iwho was left alone in the yard while her motha, at work in the home, kept occasional W..tcli' over' her from the window. · Within- Jlll':hour- the child had disappear'ed;\ ~d h~~ ~.found later in allily pond at the ldde. of the house. ' H- Some of the yOUDjll!ters wandered away and were drowned In near-by rivers, creeks, brooks and similat attee.ma_ Several climb- ed into bathtubs w:lien their mothers left them alone "for l iliinute or two". This is a drowninc hazard' few think of. Laxatioe Tableta Not Acceptable Editor Geo. W. James of The Statesman, Bowmanville, waxu a wee bit wrathy· when asked by a medical concern to render them a small sit'Viet: The service, as we oee it, ealla for' the editor to sub- mit his digestive 01'11ina- t6 a three n1ght's trial and then send the funlts to the manu- facturers of what lPPMft to be -a rtew laxa- tive tablet. Probably the medical concern wished to use the editor's "recommenda- tion" as a metna to induee other clients to use the tablets. However·Editor -.James re· nigs in the fOllowing wotda: "Editors of weekly neWI!Jlllpers are called " upon to render all kinds Ot public and priv- ' ate serviees outside the realm of their own profeaoion.

It was a letter addfeeaed to the edi- tor in perioD from a mediCal concern, in which a full ailed bottle of J&xative tablets was eneloeed, teqUII!tillg ua to "take the tablets for thite eonaeeutive nights" and send them the results (lf still living) the fourth dly or ~vo the tablets ' to a member of our aW{, and have him fill out the queatloiliiilre 1m th&-lii.ek of the letter with detalla. "Please be ~k" was spe- cially reqUeSted. After golilg the rounds of the staff there were no takers and the bottle Gf Ubleu; is still on "the editor's desk. So, as a lut our sub- ind the firs!

Under ordinary circumstances there would be widespread protest against such a regimen· tation of the people, but when our freedom an"ct the democracy of our nation io threat- ened there is a willingness to give up aome of our individual freedom that victory may be attained. The lists, which will contain the names of every man and woman over ~ 1111'1 of 16, will be returned to Ottawa and will be the basis of selection for compulaory lllill- tary training in the home defence faftea as well as for other purpooea within tllo authority of the National Wat llirvicea Department. Penalties are provided far failure to register and for f]VIrtg false in- formation and it wiD be obllgatoey to carry registration cards at all tltnea, failure tor which also brings penaltieo. It will be realized that thie reglotratlon eard lo the c•tJzen's warranty of his or her cltbenship and follows closely the Elil'oiJeall pollee system. The war brings many changea In our accustomed way of living and may bring many more, including personal saenfleeA and the giving up of a few personal libel'· ties. But these may all be essential tor the attainment of victory, and national registration is akin to national corlilcflptlln of man and woman power and neeel98ry &1!1 a national emergency. Always Be a Scotland, Too '!'he war song of the day is not Irith like "A Long Way to Tipj)6r&ry," but "There Will Always be an Ellglitld."
