"Put into your task whatever it may be all the courage and purpose of which you are capable. Keep your hearts proud and your resolve unshaken. Let us go forâ€" ward to that task as one man, a smile on * on our lips, and our heads held high, and with God‘s help we shall not fail." Among the deathless phrases of Premier Churchill many would be tempted to set first his reference to the noble work of the Royal Air Force and its branches throughout the Dominions:â€" "Never did so many owe so much to so few." To The Advance, however, the bravest words, the most undying words of Churchill were those given in the darkest days of all the war, when men seemed to have little but faith to bear them up, but Premier Churchill hurled deflance at the enemies of freedom and the right, and tossed inâ€" spiration to all within the Empire:â€" "We shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air. We shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be; we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island, or even a part of it is subjugated and staryâ€" ing, then our empire across the seas, armed and guarded by the British fleet, will carry on the struggle until, in God‘s good time, the New World, in all its strength and might, sets forth to the rescue and liberation of the old." wWith what telling phrase and with what magical words did Premier Churchill give to the people of the Empire and the world the attitude and the purpose of the people of Great Britain:â€" "We will face whatever is coming to us. We are sure of ourselves and of our cause. Here, then, is the supreme fact. Meanâ€" while we have not only fortified our hearts but our island. We have rearmed and rebuilt our armies in a degree which would have been deemed impossible a few months ago. We have ferried across the Atlantic, thanks to our friends over there, an immense mass of munitions of all kinds: cannon, rifies, machineâ€"guns, cartridges and shells; all safely landed without the lost of a gun or a round. The output of our own factories, working as they have never worked vefore, has pourâ€" ed forth." It was said of the late Sir John Willison that whenever he wrote an editorial on any topic, local | or provincial or national, serious or frivolous, it was literature, because of the magic with which he marshalied his words. The same can truthâ€" fully be said in reference to the addresses of Premier Winston Churchill.. Here are his memâ€" The use of a standard book of quotations the other day to trace the source of a quotation made by President Roosevelt may well impress the fact that hereafter these books of quotations will have to be greatly enlarged and extended to include all the words of deep wisdom, the stirring sentences, the inspiring phrases, the magical words, the deathless words, that have been brought forth during these days of dire distress. Many of the phrases of President Roosevelt deserve a place in the books of classical quotations, with Lincoln and Franklin. His phrase, "Good Neighbours" has been enshrined in the language of the British Emâ€" pire. There should be a place for the phrase used by the United States senator whose wise thought was: ‘"Only the dead are neutral." As for Premier Churchill, it would be possible to gather a whole book of worthâ€"while quotations from the addresses and the writings of this one great man alone. Among the magical words of truth and life that should find place in every book of quotations,â€" yes, in every school book in the landâ€"The Adâ€" vance would have the inspiring words of the King â€"a message for days of peace, as well as for time Of war:â€"â€" Ail those who have occasion to consult standard books of reference are fully aware of the necesâ€" sity for revised and enlarged histories, atlases, encyclopedias, on account of the many changes brought about by the present war. In this connecâ€" tion it is but fair to pay special tribute to the Encyclopedia Britannica Year Book which is an ecarnest and successful effort to present an auâ€" thoritative work of reference that keeps informaâ€" tion as closely upâ€"toâ€"date as it is possible to do in this fastâ€"moving world of the minute. Pubâ€" lished in February or March of each recent year the Encyclopedia Britannica Year Book is complete to the end of each previous year, even to the listing of the strength of various armies, navies and air forces of the nations of the world.

The Toronto Telegram in an editorial article on Saturday supports the proposed legislation to limit the collection of funds ostensibly for the blind to bona fide organizations such as the Canadian Naâ€" tional Institute for the Blind. The Telegram sugâ€" The Lord Haw Haw type boast about how casy it is to bamboozle the foolish common people. Sooner or later, however, they find out that the ecasiest people for them to fool are the Lord Haw Haw‘s themselves. In the meantime, The Adâ€" vance would simply repeat the pressing necessity for an investigation and complete change in the whole Canadian Radio situation. In the first place, immediate steps should be taken to prevent the further Nazification of the radio, and its prosâ€" titution for petty party ends. If radio is to be continued as simply a means of propaganda and power for one party, it is not too much to say that it is no better than the Nazi radio, and, just as dangerous to liberty. The fact remains that Hon. Geo. A. Drew was refused time on the radio on a paid basis after one man had spoken without cost on the same topic, and another was given similar privilege after the refusal of Col. Drew. The case of Mr. Geo. McCullough is another sample of the Nazi conduct of Canadian radio. Still another sample is the instance of Dr. Shields who was reâ€" fused radio time on a paid basis after he had been attacked by another speaker on the air. A more recent case is that of the refusal to broadcast an annual banguet because Premier Hepburn was the guest speaker. Even Lord Haw Haw can not exâ€" plain where this sort of discrimination is any different from the German Nazi brand. Also, there is the deliberate defiance of the law in regard to Sunday advertising. All other agencies are strictly forbidden to carry on advertising activity on Sunday, but Canadian radio apparâ€" ently is above the lawâ€"a law unto itself. With all this in view is it a misâ€"statement to refer to the Nazi radio in Canada? In every enslaved land in Europe, the Nazi spirit first secured control of the press. The free press of Canada should see to it that Canadian radio is freed from any Nazi type of domination, and that all the brood of Lord Haw Haw‘s are booed away. The local radio‘s own "Lord Haw Haw" takes The Advance to task for suggesting that Canaâ€" dian radio is gathering all the dirty earmarks of Nazi radio. Of course, the Lord Haw Haw type never faces the facts, but by abuse and innuendo attempts to attract attention away from the truth. For the advantage of any who may not be conâ€" versant with the case, it may be stated that Norâ€" thern Ontario was a genuine pioneer of radio in Canada. There was a sending and receiving radio station at Sandy Falls, near Timmins, when radio was in its first puling infancy, and the late T. F. King, with Northern vision, financed a radio shop in Timmins "born years before its time." The reâ€" cords show that The Advance gave the fullest coâ€" operation to the pioneering of radio in Canada. The records also show that The Advance gave earnest support to the establishment of a radio station in Timmins, though this is no source of pride, because the Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade has always held that the estabâ€" lishment of a private station here was accomâ€" plished through misrepresentation that has preâ€" vented the service of the country by a Governâ€" ment radio station. There was no criticism or lack of support even for the woefully inadequate radio service here until it was found to be painâ€" fully prostituted. The records show that the first blast against the local radio was when time was allowed on the air to broadcast the suggestion that all the stores here dealt only in bankrupt and fire sale stocks. The fact that nothing like that has happened since recalls the truth that every criticism of The Advance has resulted in great improvemant. Those gifted with rare imaâ€" gination may well wonder what radio would be like, if there were no criticisms. p i P P PP L L AL P AL P PP PP suited to the genius and resources of the British nation and Empire, and that once we get properly started a war of this kind will be more favourable to us than the sombre mass slaughtéers of the Somme and Passchendacle." ‘Many more quotations might be made of the magical words of Premier Churchill, but space forbids. Such a reference as this, however, would be woefully incomplete without Churchill‘s reâ€" cent message to President Roosevelt:â€" "Put your confidence in us. Give us your faith and your blessings, and under Providence all will be well. We shall not fail or falter; we shall not weaken or tire. Neither the sudden shock of battle nor the long drawn trials of vigilance and exâ€" ertion will wear us down..
