PAGE TWO A Weekly Review of Developments on the Home Front: Popular Mechanics points out that drivers who burn up the road at high speed pay for their folly by also burning up an excessive amount of fuel. Recent mileage efficiency tests, conducted by Plymouth experts with several popular makes of automobiles, showed a startling loss of power and fuel at higher speeds to overcome wind resistance alone. At eighty miles per hour, the average car lost fortyâ€"eight horsepower just to buck the wind, which is equivalent to climbing a 6.8 percent incline. At forty miles an hour, the loss was reduced to six horsepower. Ever since man first found God, the godly have been beset by the with Council the weed problem of ungodly.

In the light of history it is not surprising that Hitler has seen fit to persecute the religious people of Germany and of those other counâ€" tries which he has conquered. Enlightened citizens of the democracies which still remain free know full well that if Hitler is not stopped, the church and all it means will be set back for years. Thus it becomes a logical decision that churches in Canada, whose primary mission is to promote "Peace On Earth", should lend a voice in support of the practical courses which must be taken to stop Hitler. ‘ A Victory Loan Sunday on February 22nd is therefore well conâ€" ceived. In connecting the cold hard business of raising money for the war effort with the warm, soulâ€"stirring truth that this is a war to free millions of oppressed people, Victory Loan Sunday becomes a red letter day on the calendar for 1942. Godâ€"fearing Canadians should fill the churches on that day. The "Head and Front" The best news of all still comes from Russia where the Germans are still on the retreat.‘ If the head and front of the Axis Nations, Germany, can be beaten, the other Axis Powers will not last long.â€" London Free Press. Probably no magistrate in the Province of Ontario has rendered greater service to the Bench than Waterloo County‘s retiring magisâ€" trate, John R. Blake of Galt. Some 80,000 cases have passed through his hands and he has administered justice under no less than five British sovereigns, a record of which any man would be proud. Indicative of the man‘s boundless energyâ€"and his strong desire to serve in some useful capacity despite his 75 years, was the magistrate‘s reply to the praise: that he was rather pleased with the idea of retireâ€" ment because it offered opportunities of service still in other fields. Magistrate Blake‘s long service to the County will undoubtedly go down as a valuable contribution to legal history of Waterloo. Climaxing his 43 years of service on the Ontario Bench was a recent meeting of the Waterloo County Law Association in Kitchener, where Mr. Justice McFarland, County Judge Clement, and prominent lawyers of this district paid wellâ€"deserved tribute to the retiring cadi.
