A change in business conditions is evident in Prince Rupert this year. Goods are not in any great supply as yet but competition in certain lines of retailing annears to be increasing. "THE MEN'S STORE" Canada As Motherland . . . The suggestion is being made that Passing away is the tendency of the ada but Canada possesses all the re-shops to scorn business. There is quite qulsite essential requirements of life: obviously being made a greater effort food, shelter, employment, security, to please the customer and develop She has immense natural resources in patronage all of which is to the good food, building materials timber, brick, in keeping up the activity and progres- cement, asbestos, fuels, etc., much good siveness of the merchants and withal ian( still available at moderate cost, giving the customers a little more of a break in the way of service and selection. Roth nationally and locally, the function of the newspapers in stimu to meet post-war problems Canada should be made the Motherland of the British Commonwealth. The war damage situation, is likely to require the most urgent building of at least five million new dwellings. The question arises: Where is the land to be found for all the extensive new re-housing schemes? A bold policy of emigration, some hold, is required in order to make use of neglected heritage in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc., and to readjust some of the balances of population in the Empire. It might seem a revolutionary reversal to move the Motherland to Can- and could employ many times her present population if the requisite development was undertaken. With this possible "New Rritain" which, georgra- lating merchandizing and maintaining phically, is equally, if not better, fitted 1 Ml 1 Z r, xns 1 i 1 i 1 1 I V? z goodwill and appreciauuii is uutc again becoming more fully recognized. Throughout the country newspapers are experiencing even greater demands upon their space by would-be advertisers. To practically all newspapers the problem of meeting the intensifying demands of the advertisers is a perplexing one because of such factors as continued newsprint supply restrictions, the manpower situation and the scarcity of publishing supplies to be the natural centre of the Empire, the United Kingdom could be as a green and pleasant national park, without further overcrowding or ribbon development. There is simply not suffi cient resources of land any longer available in the United Kingdom to build up, for example, millions of "Portal" houses which are wasteful of land and would not solve post-war housing problems. UNITY BEGINS WITH "U" We .all realize, now, that we must have unity between the United Nations if we are to win this war and prevent another. But do we realize that we cannot have unity between the nations without unity within them? Unity does not mean that we must all think alike. It does mean that we must respect the thoughts and rights of others, and that we must be prepared to stick together. Untty, like charity,, begins at hemel What you and I say over the back fence multiplied hv what nil Canadians like us are saying that is public opinion. Are we personally building or breaking down unity? Do we like to pick holes in our fellow citizens who go to different churches, belong to different races, believe in different political creeds? Do we like to repeat funny (but malicious) stories about the British, the Americans, the Russians and our other allies? Ottawa, Washington, London, Moscow cannot make us united unless we truly want to be. Nations are groups of people you and me multiplied. We are a democracy. It's up to us. Unity begins with "U."

Men $1 Ladies 50c brief talks by Majors Steele and McKInley and by A. E. Tutte, supervisor of the Seamen's Club. Mr. Tutte welcomed the two Special services visitors and .said that since Us beginning eight months ago the Seamen's club had made many worth while contributions to shore live of Allied seamen. Major Steele, who Is Red Shield Special Services supervisor for Pacific Command, Van couver, responded by saying that,' under Mr. Tutte's supervision, the club had established a valuable place In the war ser vices of this city. He presented Stanley McKInley, both veterans J a series 0r figures indicating the of Salvation Army Special Ser-lwor)c 0x the club since It was vices work overseas. Films show ing the big tasks being done by Red Shield workers In Britain and In army, navy and air force training camps In Canada were the main features of the evening. The films were preceded "by groups in Nogiisk. Altogether a good deal of preliminary work was completed, and It was resolved to await a favorable reply opened eight months ago. During that time it aa been attended by 11,522 seamen from 43 sjates of the United States, from Russia, Australia, Britain and eight provinces of Canada. Shows at the club have been attended by 2,328 visitors, and 3,789 have used the canteen facilities. Major Steele outlined the background of the club's begin ning. "Col. T. J. Weed, the American commander here at that time felt that there was a need for recreation facilities in this port for the large number of Amerl can seamen who stopped here," he said. "Arrangements were made in co-operation -with the American Salvation Army, and the club Is supported by American funds It has now been thrown open for the use of Canadian coastwise seamen." Major McKInley briefly outlined the course of his work among Canadian troops in Britain where he spent 42 months. During, the long months while Canadian soldiers waited for action there was a heavy burden thrown on the accompanying special services which were charged with the Job of keeping them entertained. The men grew re&tless at the long wait and the authorities impressed us with thesreat need for providing them with relaxation and entertainment," he Major McKInley was recalled for service in Canada shortly before D-Day last year and Is now In charge of the Red Shield service centre In Vancouver. Shewn by Adjutant E. A. Brunsdon. the films Included a short picture revealing the work being done by the Salvation Army I In blitzed England, and a well produced technicolor picture of Red Shield activities In Canadian training camps.
