We hope she is not seriously injur- ed and soon be bacn to school. cc .and someday, WE'LL take a trip ! 99 SOMEWHERE in the back of yout mind, there's that urge to go places. Right now it must be filed under "Future" but it's part of us as Canadians to want to discover for ourselves what the rest of the world is like â€" to plan for that "some day," when we'll take a trip! That's why it must be part of our planning now, to make sure such pleasant things as trips are possible in the post-war world. And they'll be possible only if we fight against iniladon â€" fight now to keep Canada's dollar worth a hill dollar! Why is NOW so important? Be- cause NOW civilian goods are scarce, money is plentiful. NOW is the time we must guard against paying more than things are worth â€" against black markets â€" against buying more than we need, or goods we don't need! NOW is the time we must support radoning and price controls! Up to the present, we've kept our dollar sound. And we can conunue to do so if we keep up a strong, steady fight against infladon! If we fail in this fight, prices will rise. Wages will never quite catch up. Soon you'll pay, perhaps a dollar for a quarter's worth of goods! And that means your dollar is worth only a quarter! That's infladon. And after inflation, comes de- pression. Depression means neither you nor anyone else in Canada will have trips. You'll be lucky if you have a job! So, for our own sakes, for the sake of returned men, for our children, let's never relax our struggle to keep Canada's dollar worth a full dollar! rnone ft* Angus Avis, Manager PtthliihtdhyTHli BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) to tevcid the duigen of inflation. Make this Pledge Today! I pledge myself to do my part in fighting inflation: -." â€" ..«i By obtsrving rottoning and avoiding black markets in any shape or form. By racpscting pric* control* and other anti-inflacion measures, and re- fraining from careless and unneces- sary buying. I will not buy two where one will do, nor will I buy a "new" where ao "old" will do. By buying Victory Bomh ami War S<nHng« Slfimpt, supporting tax- ation and abiding by all such measures which will lower the cost of living and help keep prices at a normal level.
