The Finns, he said, had set an exâ€" ample of what men are willing to sufâ€" fer for true demosracy. "The 20,000 Finns who died will yet live in the fuâ€" ture generation who will show the world that these things they died deâ€" fending are worth preserving." He thanked Mrs. Wallace Campbell and Mr. Sommerville of the Red Cress, and Mrs. William Horkins, regent of the Dauzhters of the Empire, specially, for the valuable assistance given in time ¢f need to the country he represents. "The gratitude and thankfulness of the Finnish people is deep and sincere." Answer Hitler‘s Sneer Rev. August Lappala, formerly of Timmins, gave a short a resume of Finâ€" land‘s 22 years of eager and rapid proâ€" gress and freedom. The dark 105 days of war had brouzht out one bright spct, he said, "Finland‘s friends were multiâ€" plied. Their sympathy and helpfulness were deeply felt. One cannot express in words the gratitude we feel," he said, and ‘added that once Finns become friends they make gocod friends, and told the Canadians "you have gained friends to ycurself, who will perhaps be able to show you their gratitude and appreciaâ€" tion by better means than words, some day." J. MacDonald replied to this, quoting Pericles from 3,600 years ago: "Freeâ€" dom is the sure possession of those alone vmo have the courage to défend it," and added: "FPinns more than anyâ€" one else have answered the sneer of Hitler that free people choose safety rather than danger, conffort rather than discomfort. They were faced with tremendous odds but did not choose safety. We hope that Finland will again get back that which she struggled to hold." And the way the Finns, even as far away from hcme as Toronto, sang "Maamme," or "Our Land," at the close of the evening makes it quite conceivâ€" able that in the end they will stand victorious and their country will be free and whole again.

In the gay and wellâ€"lighted surroundâ€" ings with the fountain sparkling and taiples literally groaning under the piles of Finnish delicacies, it was hard to remember that the celebration had a sober nature. Hard, until the Finnish choir sang. They were dressed in their rational costumes, and led by Matti Pennanen, and tMey sang the war songs of their land out of their hearts to the best of their own blood. Then it was easy to understand how Finland had stood against great oddsâ€""we have only the snow and the night, ut we have these in Finland so> we will defend them, should anyone dare to attack us we will hit with our cudgel and doubt whether they rise again," cne song went.
