Lady Maude Warrender:â€" Everybody is able to give vleasure in some way. One person may do it by coming into a room, another by going out. In every war in the history, of the Eritish Empire, the women have been an unfailing support and inspiration to the men on the firing lines In the present war they were from the beginâ€" ning insistent that they be given a still greater share of the work and the hardâ€" ship and a part closer to the actual combatant force. The final decision to form a corps of women whose role would be that of replacing soldiers in nonâ€"combatant duties was made during the summer of 1941. The Canadian Women‘s Army Corps was authorized by orderâ€"inâ€"Council in August, 1941, as an official part of the Canadian Army Active. The main party consisting of Lieutâ€" enant Beatrice Munro, Sergt. Toni Courtney (Toronto), Pte. Patricia Hughes (Capreol), Pte. Winona L. Bceott (Sault S8te. Marie) will be here unâ€" til Oct. Â¥#ith, It is worth noting that in addition to recruiting work for the C WA.C., both the advance party and the main party of the CW.A.C,. have proved very valuable allies in the presâ€" ent Victory Loan Campaign. Both the advance party and the main party joined in the parade to the big rally at the McIntyre Arena on Sunday evenâ€" ing, and the address by Lieut. Beatrice Munro was a most impressive and inâ€" spiring one. Her knowledge o‘ condiâ€" tions in the old land and in other scenes of war and her very evident sincerity and earnesiness made her talented speaking most effective. The way Lieut. Munro is giving talent and strength and effort to the caitse of Britain and the Allied Nations is a genuine inspiration to men and women alike. Oflicers and other ranks of the C.W. AC.enlist for service in Canada and anywhere in the world for the duration of the war and for twelve months thereafter should their services be reâ€" quired. A candidate for enlistment must be either "A" or "B" medical, catâ€" egory; minimum height five ft.; weight not less than 105 pounds, or 10 pounds above or below the standard weight for height; must not have children under 16 years; must have grade VIII or eâ€" quivalent education; must be between the ages of 18 and 45 and must be a British subject. Last week the advance party of a reâ€" cruiting unit for the Canadian Women‘s Army Corns came to town to prepare the way for the main party here this week. The advance party included Sergt. Larry Melville Pte. Evelyn Combs (of Fort Lupton Colorado) and Sergt. Ruth L. Carmichael (Collingwood). This advance party did effective pubâ€" licity wcerk here and left on Monday for Kirkland Lake.

There will not be as many parties go from here as in past years, for two reaâ€" sons, one of them being the fact that there are not as many people here as in other yvears, and the other being that war conditions of one kind and another have a tendency to disrupt all forms of sport and recreation.

A very hearty and sincere invitation is extended to parents and all others interested in the welfare of the boys and the building of the best type of citâ€" izenship to be present for this event. Thursday, Oct. 15th, was the opening day of the open season for deer and moose in this part of the North and the season will remain open until Nov. 25th for deer and until Oct. 30th for moose. nor stay as long on the trip as on prevâ€" ious occasions, for the same two reaâ€" sons. Further, mood of the parties that do take the trip will be thinking less of the happy outing than of the more serâ€" ious business of helping out the meat shortage. Between wars, hunting, in this country is more or less engaged in for the happy outâ€"door holiday event, and with little thought or care for the retuuns in moose and deer meat. Thouâ€" sands upon thousands of busy men find hunting a supreme form of healthâ€"givâ€" ing, happy release from the workaday world. In these days of war and stress, the relaxation may be the more needed, but to it is added the practical value of the imeéat cecured.

There is a wide selection of trades and opportunâ€" ities for vocational training courses are cpen to untrained women. _‘ "Now as Canada‘s sons take their firs; prominent part in the battle, it wili be necessary to enlist more and more women to replace the men who are remustered into fighting units. This is to be achieved in the enrolling of 1500 girls all across Canada each month. Military District No. 2 is capable of placing 600 of this quota. There is a place for every women between the ages of 18 and 45 trained or untrained, who is in good health, has no children under the age of 16, and is a British subject.

"Where it was not thought at first that women would be applicable in a gcood many army jobs, it was soon disâ€" covered that the more difficult the work the more eager the girls are to tackle it. Major ‘General Jean Knox, the highest ranking women officer in the British Empire, on a recent visit, stated that the Canadian girls were doing a marvelous job, and expressed the belief that 20% of the Canadian Army would be women, as in the British forces.
