Prince Rupert has contributed several hundred of its sons to help win the war. The Navy, the Army and the Air Force are stronger because local men went away. It would be easy to write of these men in the general term of "manpower," but to do so would be to deny the basic reason for their sacrifices. Regardless of the personal reason they give for being in the services, each man is fighting to avoid the indignity of being lumped as a unit of "manpower." They fight for their right to remain individuals. There is nothing particularly original in the forgoing. We all know it to be the basis for our struggle. ' Nevertheless, it is so easy for a townsman to be im- pressed by the anonymity bestowed on a fellow citi fezen by his service uniform that the individuality of T the soldier, sailor or airman may be overlooked, r When a local boy enlists he is generally given some sort of send-off. While he is in service- his comforts are augmented by the contributions of ladies' groups and other patriotic organizations. But more often than not, when he is discharged, or returns home from a long period of service, he is -neglected by all but his close friends, I As Canadians we are grateful to these men for what they haye done, and for what they are doing. Why do we not shqw ft. to them as individuals? Why should Prince Rupert not have some sort of committee designed to let returning Private Smith know that we think his job has been worth while? That we are glad to see him? It would make us all happier. There need be nothing lavish about the arrange ment. It would be enough that the committee, or one of its members, call on Private Smith, who is home j on leave, or discharged, and say thank you from all "fhe people, There is no need to embarrass him with -- heroics, but we should try to gladden him with appreciation. &: CONTINUOUS SERVICE w-When the Canadian Red Cross Society makes its . annual appeal to ine people oi r,nis nonunion ior t funds to carry on their manifold duties many stories Tbf their work are published in .newspapers and maga-, zines. At that time, the public nod and agree that good work is being done, but after the campaign ' they quickly forget that this humanitarian organi zation is continuing by day and night a program df assi3tano feu our fighting men and our boys held prisoners of war. This editorial is means to focus a little light, in between time, on the work of the Canadian Red Cross Society. Red Cross announces that na Canadian prisoner of war will suffer from inability of his relatives to obtain suitable food items to include in the quarterly next-of-kin parcel. It has instituted a new service . " which not only procures food articles often difficult to obtain in retail stores, but also distributes them . freely to next-of-kin. Chocolate, concentrated coffee, chipped beef, chewing gum, are all included in this stock which is held in the B.C. division warehouses in Vancouver and can be obtained by relatives through application to their local branche of the Red Cros, Society, Other items stocked include dehydrated apples, carrqts and I beans, onion salt, curry powder, oxo cubes, life savers and peanut butter. Since the Red Cross does, not sell anything, these are issued on requisition from the branch secretary. In addition to food, the society is prepared to, make available to those who require financial aid, sweaters, socks, scarves, helmets, gloves, as well as other articles of clothing ar blankets. These must also be obtained through the local branch of the or ganization. It is stated from national headquarters that there are no Canadian prisoners of war. detained bv the enemy for more than six months, who have not re- - 1 L A.
