To hold and increase the morale and the morals of the troops, all sorts of entertainments were proâ€" vided, from horse races to motion pictures and concerts. Sports were featured, and while the Russians ofâ€" ficially â€"took no part in organizing these events, they had the faculty of walking away with the most of the prizes in the athletic contests. The people of Holland, being more serious and quxet than those of France and Belgium, were more difficult to capture, but the Canadians made friends there in a big way eventually. h. t PR Pss EUE The speaker gave a graphxc outline of the work of the Canadian Auxilâ€" iary Services in France, Belgium, Sicâ€" ily, Holland and in Germany. The ~Canadian Information Board, instituted with the idea of keeping the Canadian armed forces in closer touch with their home land, served English civilians as well as Canadian troops. At the close of the war, there had been some 50,000 applications from English civilians in regard to opportunities inâ€"Canada. The speaker showed ~that, in adâ€" dition to keeping the morale of the men overseas at a high level, the Auxâ€" illary Services were an important factor in creating better understandâ€" ing between the English people and the Canadian fighting forces. | "â€"The four units worked with the closest harmony, with the one aim in view, and in addition to their regular allotted duties, they benefitted the men in scores of ways, Help The Red Cross \<United Auto =yâ€"Parts Ltd. ip$ |¢q $1% o ~Phone 2120 441 Commercial Ave, ~â€"~BRICKETTES ..

In fact, they should preach this gospel of good health every week.

Resident patients in mental hospitals have increased 60 per cent since 1931; cancer takes more than 14,000 as its annual toll; Canada‘s total ‘cost for sicknesst and ~untimely death is estimated atâ€" one billxon dolâ€" lars a year.
