Mayor, aldermen and police chief hive been elected and the young folk appear to have made good choices. Anyway, the winners are to be congratulated. Now, like good civic policymakers, their job is to get down to organization of the various activities coming within the purview of a Teen Town. The Teen Town function, as we understand it, is to promote activities not principally, and certainly not only, for entertainment and recreation but for self-improvement and education, to train the young people in the rudiments of good citizenship. Among these important rudiments are the ability to assign , and accept responsibilities and to see they are carried out. In other words every Teen Towner when he, or she accepts a job of work, no matter how large or trivial it might seem to be, should see that it is meticulously, expeditiously and thoroughly carried out. Otherwise, it would be better to admit lack of enterprise, ability or energy and leave the job alone. There will be plenty of work in Teen Town and it will not be all glamorous or glorious. The Daily News is ready to cooperate generously with Teen Town in the way of publicizing its activities. Certainly, publicity will be important to those activities in maintaining interest, enthusiasm and support. But, in a good publicity setup like anything else, there will have to be co-operation and willingness to do the work, The people of Teen Town will find the Daily News willing and anxious to offer its assistance, adyice and space, providing they are ready to do their part. W ft Pi MW Patience and Helpfulness When men and nations are hungry and insecure there js little chance to develop and establish the ideals of goodwill and unselfishness upon which the welfare of the world collectively must be established. So, therefore, as Mr. Goldenberg, barrister and authority on economic matters, suggested in speaking here this week, we must be patient and not expect the re-formation of the world to come suddenly overnight. After all, in the very nature of human life, there is the necessity of looking after one's self and one's own responsibilities! That applies to nations as well as individuals. When we are hungry, cold and unhappy, our elemental instincts of survival are naturally to the fore. To bring about the ideals of democracy among the principal of' which is peace founded on security and mutual goodwill we must, therefore, establish the economic security. First step we must take is to relieve the starvation and dire need and hopelessness among people who have come through five or six years of brutal warfare with all its horrors of death, pillage and destruction and today find themselves iji desperate economic straits. They must be made happy in that way. By helping them we will have learned to share and will have appreciated the satisfaction of sharing and assisting. It is in this connection that we people of such blessed lands as Canada can play our part tqwards the world rebuilding and rehabilitation for which such an organization as the United Nations can provide the mechanics but cannot furnish the spirit. The. C.NJI. continues its rehabilitation policies by cutting down services and laying off wage-earners and 'at the same time finding new positions for its high paid officials. We Join the Prince.

" Hi I ' The Canadian Bank of Commerce hat for many yeart assisted in the develop-ment of logging, lumbering and the pulp and paper industry across tlie Dominion. Its brandies, uliether in old tstablislied communities or in the new town sites, serve the many banking requirements of companies and individuals associated with these industries. "D anking in Action is manifested in the crash ! of falling trees; in the rush of logs, as the lumberjacks break the jam and speed the timber on its way; in the scream of saws, as busy mills convert it into planks, beams and scantlings. Logging and lumbering provide work and wages for thousands in the woods, the mills, the construction industry. The stream of wealth thus flowing across Canada'is an example of Banking in Action.
