It is now over four years since Germany let slip her dogs of war und gave gage of buttle to mankind To defend the rights of weaker nations and to establish peuce and democracy firmly in the world, country after country has joined the cause of liberty and justice. Although Germany had prepared for war for forty years, she failed to achieve a decisive victory. Since then, the ullies have with great sacrifice end toil put obstacle after obstacle in the way of Germuny's plans for world mastery, She now stands alone, deserted by her allies und facing the world in arms, At this \erixis in the world's history, we are asked |to buck up our bruve men, who have 'struggled long und earnestly for us, by buying Victory Bonds. You may ask, "Why should I buy bonds" What are the reasons that should induce me to lend the money which T have saved to the Government?" 'There ure sound reasons both patriotic and personul, why we should subseribe to the Victory Loan of nineteen-eighteen, sidering that Thad net been well | Iii the! init) pica 'Wwe ate suked to lead in fifteen sears, "The rheuuit~ | for patriotic reasons.

The bunks and the people lent over seven hundred million dollars deat year for wur purposes, but more is needed The Minister of Finance wks for half a billion dollars from the Canadian people.

While helping her allies by this means our country is also keeping her wheels of industry turn- ing.

Besides this, the saving habit is & valuable one to acquire and will last through life Now though Canadians are performing a patriotic duty besides helping themselves, by saving, they can carry this further and help bo:h Canada and themselves more Ly investing their savings in Victory Bonds. We have already seen the patriotic side of doing this, but the personal advantages ore also apparent When our money lies in the bank it accumulates interest at three per cent, when we turn it into Victory Bonds, the interest twiee ax much, Of course, when it lies in the bank, we may withdraw w part or the whole of it ot any time, However, there is always a ready market for our bonds if we need the cash at any time. Bonds of Previous istues ure selling now for more thun their insue price, there iy a probubi that when peuce comes these bonds will rise considerably above par Vietory Bonds are absolutely safe, we need have no fear on that score They are Canada's pledge that she will repay them With the entire Dominion of Canada with ull its resources behind them, there is no Possibility that they will not be repaid. There is no finer Government security to. day than nineteen-eighteen Victory Bonds [In five or fifteen years, us the case may he, the money which is paid for them now will when it will be most acceptuble. In the meantime, interest will be paid twice yearly at the rate of over five and u half per cent. per annum. With everything 'in favour of, and no reason against buying Vietory Bonds, Cunadians ought to reise this opportunity of doing something --little though it is compared to the sacrifices of our soldiers and ssilors--for Canada und the Empite. \It ix to our own intereste, too, [to buy (these bonds, It in a gilt-elged int | vextment surely, Cunadians, remember whet our soldiers | have done, how they have upheld the glory jof Canada on the buttle-fields of Frunce and have never fuiled, Shall we fuil them?

During the winter months of each year :the population of Edmonton and Calgary is increased by a band of furtune-telling gypsies, whose sojourn in any one place is limited to three months according to their beliefs.

While the men are engaged in horse trad: ing and other pursuits; the women make 'a royal living trading upon the credulity of men and women, boys and girls, who are foolish enough to believe that these swarthy 'vinaged females are able to pierce the veil of the future at so much per pierce.
