Some of our convivial friends may not be very happy at the prospect of the new liquor ration whichlimits their purchases per month to one small quart of hard spirits, a dozen pints of beer or two quarts of wine. However, in spite of protestations, the powers that be seem to be quite resolute in the determination that less liquor is to be consumed. So we might as well accept it. And all the talk of the necessity of beer notwithstanding, we will, doubtless, be able to get along quite nicely without it. The change in liquor hours and the removal of the daily sales quota should remove the spectacle of the matutinal line-up, something which it is, no doubt, intended to do. The crisis between Russia and Poland might have serious enough implications for our side and may well prove quite embarrassing. We went to war on Poland's account and now there is the possibility that Poland may not be staying with us unless, of course, the breach between Russia and Poland can be patched up. The hand of our- enemy, of course, can be seen in the whole unpleas ant business. No matter what the issue of the difficulty. may be, the principles for which we fight will still reT: main. One of these aims is the elimination of interna tional' deceit and duplicity which is so, evident jey.enlin the Iflfpsf pnfsnr?v ' 1 , j The C.C.F. offer themselves to the people of Canada' as better titled than either ot the historic parties to give this country capable leadership, says the Winnipeg Free Press. It is in times of difficulty that leadership is tested. The Free Press has pointed out that if a C.C.F. government had been in office from 1935 to. 1940, instead of a Liberal government, there would have been no preparation whatever for war, and when war came this country would have kept out of it. If Canada had not taken part in the war to the extent of its capacity, the Nazi attack upon Great Britain in 1940 would have succeeded. We have Mr. Churchill's word of this: but this merely confirms something that is obvious. The consequences to Canada and the world would have been beyond calculation This is a practical test of the C.G.F. claim to a superiority in wisdom and vision; and it is conclusive in its exposure of the worthlessness of the claim.

Mr. Dawes, In his usual efficient manner, was, at the door. Refreshments took place at el-' even o'clock in cafeteria style of soft drinks and doughnuts which seemed to meet with everybody's approval.

And I'm putting everything I've' got into it to make sure you get the extra value always built into Congoleum, value that means long wear and lasting beauty so urgently needed just now when floor covering replacements are so hard to obtain."

Several dwellings were In danger of being burned and the household effects' were being'remdved to a place of safety when, with the aid of the forestry -ump, the fire was halted but not before some buildings had been torched. The much malrgnea Smlthers canal along the main street went a long way In redeeming itself by giving a plentiful supply of water by which the fire was extinguished. Had it not been for this water supply at least two dwellings would have been destroyed. A number of fires have been started throughout the valley during the past few days and at night the glow of some of. these would indicate that they are of fair proportions. The drying winds of recent days and the lack of rain has mad J burning of dry grass and bush a risky business even at this early date.
