That is because it has brought so many of our own boys right into battle, many of them who had waited ! impatiently in Britain for the past few years and! some of whom had been spoiling for action. We know that many of our boys in navy, in army, in air force are in the thick of things over there these days. We are keenly interested, we are very proud and, although few are admitting it, there are many of us who are anxious. The invasion of Europe is something that has brought a personal interest to more of us than ever before for we are wondering constantly how our boys are faring now that the struggle is here in all its grimness and in all its reality. Prince Rupert's Needs ... After an era of rather concentrated attention. there are increasing instances of where we must keep : busy to see that our requirements are properly met. ( Wo Re todav the federal government, after hav ing spent ten million "dollars in building the highway from Prince Rupert to Kitwanga, quibbling about rebuilding the Kitwanga-Hazelton link without which the road would be somewhat ineffective as far as connecting with the outside highways are concerned a completely ridiculous situation. Then we have been told that there are no men and no money to build the airport at or near Prince Rupert which must be provided before the network' of aviation facilities in this part of the country can be complete. There is also the delay in the new fishing float i facilities which are so badly needed. Also something must be done to assist the munici-l pality in connection with its roads and services which have been put in their present deplorable condition by the impact of national defence activities. There is also the possibility that our shipyard may be in the position soon of not having its capacity put into full use. In spite of the great development which war has brought us, these are things we should keep pressing for. Getting Information... Where do people get most of their information? To find the answer, look about you . . . for it is everywhere. Never have there been so many and varied sources of information. Yet never has there been so great a demand for npu-snnnoi-a oa tVmvn : .i.. i never have people read their newspapers more eagerly or more thoroughly. People live today in a world of problems ; . . problems far too complex to solve with a smattering of information. That's why they're relying so universally on newspapers ... not only for news that's full and clear as well as fast, but also for practical wartime guidance in a form that can be quickly understood and kept and referred to again and again. That, in turn, is why the Government is depending so heavily on newspapers today to convey its urgent messages to the people. All this is what gives tho newspaper the unique and unnrecedented values it offers advertisers right now. All this is what makes newspaper advertising an indispensible tool as you face the continuing problems of advertising in time of war. ELIO Furniture Store THIRD AVENUP. Folding liaby Carriages.
