' fee i PAGE TWO ACTIVITIES OF Y.M.C.A. AND Y.W.C.A. By DOROTHY GARBUTT I expect quite a run on the tickets for this week's concert at the Capitol when I tell you that Captain Armitage is putting on his one man show at the evening performance. He calls It a one man show but I think that is a gross libel on Johnny who is very, much in the show. John-ny is a scion or the Wood family which is related to Charlie Mac- Arthy. and a little less fortun- ately, to Mortimer Snerd. And Johnny is quite as talented as his CLlt THESE COAL TIPS Use Fireplace in Fall and Spring In early fall and spring use your fireplace instead of lighting- a fire in your furnace. It will take the chill off the house and will shorten your heating season. BUT, when your fireplace is not in use, make sure all drafts are closed. Albert & McCaffery PHONE 116 I WHAT'S YOUR NEED?

And another warning, be sure our girl friend has a good sized handkerchief tucked away somewhere because Captain Armitage has the artistry to bring out all the pathos found in a Dickens' character, and all the bubbling, good humored fun as well. If you miss this show, don't worry too much because he will be with us for about a fortnight, putting on shows at the various camps. By the way I think I made a mistake the other evening when I said that Frank Guy Armitage played exclusively for the YMOA. Or rather the wron? impression because, although he travels under the auspices of the YMCA, he very often plays at Canadian Legion and K. of C. recreation halls. In short, he is first and foremost at the service of the servicemen and women wherever they may be when his path crosses theirs. Nice to see the other Highway Boys in circulation. The ones who have been up to the desk for a chat have all Deen full of the grand work Carl Clay, their YMCA supervisor, did for them while they were C.B. Carl reaHy went to town to keep them amused and keep their spirits up. Good work Carl, glad to hear it. There are two sailors asleep on one of the chesterfields as I write and I wish you could see them. They look like a couple of tortured eels. I suppose their quarters are so small on the sweepers and patrols that they get used to sleeping on the ragged edge of nothing. I only wish I had a candid camera and could use a few photographs along with this column. j Don't forget the Amateur night ', at the Empress Monday. Thirty Canadian service men including a full-blooded Indian, attended a week's leave course at Leeds University. They visited a large colliery and explored its depths.

Truly, our beloved country has been spared. And our men anc planes and weapons we are still sending to the front, are keeping Canada's name notable in what well may be the decisive stage of the greatest war of all time. In light of latest developments, it must be clear to all that Victory Bonds do, indeed, foreshadow Victory. The .temporary sacrifices, and the readjustments in our normal financial plans that we may have to INVESTMENT make to buy them, are surely a cheap price to pay for the rewards they win. There is reason to believe that the great ' struggle that has for so long disrupted our way of life is approaching a decision. Money must be had to keep our ships sailing, our planes flying and our fighting forces on the road to success. Soon there will be another issue of Victory Bonds. The proceeds will give impetus to our forces to push'home the sword of triumph. No matter what the temporary sacrifice, be ready to buy more Victory Bonds when the call comes. Prepare now to buy all you can. Every bond you buy will contribute to the downfall of the enemy. And remember, tie war wont be over till we win it I NATIONAL WAR FINANCE COMMITTEE .'.f.v r,,,, p.
