some may vote a blind, selfish, cowardly No; but the man or woman who thinks to find the easy solution by not voting at all will by that act have voted No, the only difference being that their negative action will be more cowardly and contemptible than the blind and selfish voter who marks the ballot with a vote for Hitler.\u201d \u201cLet me make this inescapably plain\u2014In this issue there is no middle road.If you vote No, or if you do not vote at all, you are voting for Germany and Japan with all the stark horrors they stand for.\u201d Rev.Mr.Williams emphasized the fact that this is no squabble, petty or great, between political parties contending for a place in political leadership, since the leaders of all the parties have one message.He pointed out that while a lot of people have «aid with conviction that the calling of the plebiscite was an unwarranted and unjustifiable act, that the vast changes on every war front, bringing new situations daily justified the Government in making changes without reference to the electorate, a promise, a solemn promise was given the Canadian people that there was no need of conscription, and that there would be no conscription in Canada, but that rather our part in the world war would be in the munitions, foodstuffs and the air training operations.\u201d That plan of co-operation was made in good faith, in consultation Canada faces is totally differ-and it met the necessities of the situation then before us,\u201d Mr.Williams said.Now, the speaker said, the situa- tion Canada faces is to tally different from that of a year ago.Total war effort means more than it meant then.It calls for different measures, and cannot be exert eel without total unity and a totally free hand for the Government of this Dominion.\"That is what th s p\u2019ebiscite asks for a free and unit ammelled hand for total war,\" Mr.Williams declared.'\u2019That is what you people want- -you who believe in Canada and in world freedom.\u201d In the face of the new, grave situation.mane shouted to the Government, \u201cbreak your promise.Wo must have a total war effort.Your promise was given to cover a different set of conditions,\u201d the speaker pointed out.\u201cAnd then eve saw the picture of a first rank statesman who proclaimed the fact that his evord was his bond, and before Canada could put: her utmost effort into the war effort, and the Maple Leaf again take the proud place it won in the First Great War, he and his confreres must bo freed by those to whom the pledge was given.A new page has been written into modern political history.Mr.Williams contended that the.Prime Minister took the honorable course, and recalled the days of 1914 when a solemn promise, broken on the wheel of expediency, started a war which left thirteen million men dead on far-flung battlefields.\"Have you forgotten the tense days of 1939 and following, days, when a man at Munich made solemn promises and broke them so fast that integrity became a ravished and ruined word, and truth hung upon a scaffold, a scaffold made in Germany?\u201d \u201cWe, surely, as men of honor, and to whom truth is binding, will stand behind the man who asserts that, private values and public values are the same.\u201d Dealing with the question of home defence, Rev.Mr.Williams said, \u201cSurely no intelligent person believes that if we just man our far-flung shores Canada is safe.Look at your map.Not a country in the world today that elected to stay at home and protect its own border and let the rest of the world look after itself now possesses that homeland.\u201cHow could we, by home defence, protect ourselves?And surely we are not that contemptible, we Canadians that were the shock troops of the Allies in the last war.and made, the Maple Leaf a symbol of pride wherever free men lived, that we elect to stay at home ami defend Canada only, and let the rest of the world be crucified on a crooked Nazi cross ?| \u201cSuppose we were invaded, how j could we a-sk or accept help from others to defend our country, we who refused to stir from our borders to help others?That would be the ultimate of shame.\u201cBoth the safety of our homes and mothers, wives and children; our institutions and our freedom, demand that every man.woman, child, factory and farm do their ultimate utmost, anywhere, any time, till victory is ours.\u201d Has No Notice Local Fair To Be Cancelled Commenting today ou a story in I,a Tribune to the effect that the annunl Eastern Townships Agricultural \\ -soeiation Exhibition will he cancelled for the second straight year because of the fact that the Fair Grounds will be taken over for military purposes, Secretary-Manager Norn y Price said that he had received no definito information of this nature from the Federal authorities.Mr.Price said he ' us still awaiting definite orders from the Department of National Defetuv at Ottawa to what course of action to take, Local Seaman Receives O.B.E.For Amazing Feat Of Amateur Surgery as is assumed be received t liait, this within a word short and it should time.In the meantime, Mr.Price said, it would bv> wrong to state that instructions to cancel arrangements for the Pair, whioh were inaugurated several months ago at the R.T.A.A.annual meeting, have been received.NAMED PRESIDENT Florent Morin, son of Mr.and Mrs.Joseph Morin, 21 Gillespie Street, Sherbrooke, is looked upon by fellow seamen at Halifax as the iron-nerved chap who last November used a pitching deck of a Canadian corvette sis an operating room and with fish hooks and curtain clasps as surgical instruments, saved the life of a Norwegian sill or.But the seaman from Sherbrooke claims he is \u201cjust a dirty fireman\" aboard a harbor craft.Incidentally, he won the Order of the British Empire for the feat, hut the 23 year-old French - t'auadiau doesn\u2019t think that is half as important as the fact that his emergency patient lived.\u201c1 would have felt terrible had he died,\u201d he said.Morin ami the Norwegian were t .rown together in a lifeboat after their ship had been torpedoed off Iceland.\"The chap wa.sitting there, not saying a word, with his scalp ripped off and hanging down his hack like a hood,\" Morin said.For three hours they drifted while the Froneh-Canudian attempted to ease the Norwegian\u2019s pain by feeding him some shvping tablets he had stored away in his waterproof seamen\u2019s kit.Finally a Canadian corvette, commanded bi> a Vancouver man -loomed up out of the night and took aboard the survivors, \u201c1 never saw anything like the manoeuvring that chap did,\" Morin said.\u201cThe submarine that sank us launched two torpedoes at the corvette while we were being picked up and each time the commander swung his ship out of range, .el never once left us.\u2019\u2019 Aboard the corvette Morin found no doctor instead (here was a sick bay attendanl who wasonly too glad to have the courageous survivor operate on the injured Norwegian, \u201c1 studied some medicine while at col lege in Paris and Montreal,\" hy said, i \u201cso had a vague idea of what to do,\u2019\u2019 First he washed the wounds and | earefuly placed the bleeding scalp ! back in position.;

and the other universally recognized as the writer of the second Gospel, St.Mark, the patron saint of Venice in the heydey of her power and glory.The story of St.George, so far as it is available, is full of romance.Though born of Christian parents, a native of Cappadocia, he was raised to high military rank under the heathen emperor, and persecutor of Christianity, Diocletian, In spite of his royal master\u2019s attitude towards the religion of the Man of Nazareth, the saint helped and inspired the church of Armenia, and was sent to the obscure fog-bound isles of Britain, When the persecution was at its height St.George had the sublime courage to seek a personal interview with his emperor, in which he remonstrated against the senseless cruelties that were disgracing his reign.It might be worth suggesting that this \"bearding the lion in his den\u201d would give rise to the well-known story of the \u201cDragon.\u201d In any case, the saint\u2019s intercessions were unavailing and he suffered tortures for his Faith, and, persisting in his allegiance to Christ, was at last put to death.Both the Greek and the Roman Churches venerated him as founding the great Church of Alexandria in Egypt, where he is reputed to have served as the first bishop, and the author of the local type of liturgy.As to the Evangelists\u2019 last days and death nothing is really known, but Jerome states that he died and was buried in the great Egyptian metropolis, and was numbered the martyrs.There is an Alexandrian tradition that he was one of the \u201cservants\u201d at the miracle in Cana of Galilee, and that he was the \u201cman bearing a pitcher of water\u201d in whose house the Last Supper was prepared.Another widely-accepted story was that Mark visited Northern Italy; and this probably accounts for his choice as the Venetian patron saint, whose symbol was the \u201clion.\u201d Now, our text teaches that every sincere follower of Christ has some \u201cgift of grace.\u201d Not all are equally \"talented,\u201d any more than the three in our Lord\u2019s parable were all equal; but even the humblest has some contribution to make, some service to perform, for the Master.What was the special contribution of St.George?Was it not steadfastness in the ultimate hour of trial?The good soldier of Cappadocia was very like \u201cthe Centurion whose servant was sick at Capernaum; and of whom our Lord said: THE HIDDEN WAR Two interesting books recently published tell of the hidden war in Europe.One is \u201cUnderground Europe\" and the other \"The Sixth Column,\u201d thirteen representatives of the ten occupied nations being responsible for the production of the second which is the story of hands, hearts and courage against the Nazis.Among the tales included in the book are: In the Skoda munitions plant in Czecho-Slovakia, Yacek, a crane worker, overturned a caldron of molten lead at the moment twenty-two members of a Nazi army commission were walking beneath it.In Holland, on Prince Bernhard's birthday, many loyal citizens wore white carnations as a tribute to the royal family in exile in England and as a protest against the Nazis.Bands of Nazis roved through the streets trying to tear the flowers from the wearers.They suffered cuts from razor blades skilfully concealed in the carnations.In Poland there are more than one hundred underground newspapers.More than two hundred men are ready to die at any moment for what they are doing\u2014-the printing and distribution of these sheets.The papers vary in size from five or six inches in width and seven to ten inches in length.They have from four to sixteen pages.The majority is set by hand and printed on small hand presses.Some are stenciled.The most important are published two or three times a week and contain com- ANGLO-JAPANESE SHOWDOWN NEAR Events seem to be developing rapidly towards a major showdown between Japan and Britain in the Indian Ocean, and that means a great naval battle.Japanese control of the Eastern Indian Ocean, and the danger that this domination may be extended throughout that vast sea, is one of the grave threats to the Allied cause.The Middle East, whose shores are washed by the Indian Ocean, has been designated by Hitler as the possible meeting ground of the Axis forces.Should the Japs and Nazis manage to join hands there it might mean a thirty-year war.There are two new signs pointing to a possible major engagement in the Indian Ocean.One is the indication that the Allies may be preparing to take over the strategic French Island of Madagascar, which dominates the shipping routes around the Cape of Good Hope, to keep the Japs from occupying it.The second is the tiny news item which is cryptic but suggests huge possibilities.This latter is the report in Vichy that a powerful British flotilla, including a battleship, passed through the Strait of Gibraltar into the Mediterranean.There is no satisfactory explanation of where these fighting ships are going, and it must he admitted there are several missions on which they might be bent.Still, in view of the emergency in the Indian Ocean, one cannot help feeling this flotilla may well be taking a short cut through the Mediterranean and the Suez Canal to help deal with the Japanese fleet.Prime Minister Churchill told the House of Commons April 13 that the Nipponese had in the Bay of Bengal at least three battleships, five aircraft carriers, a number of heavy and light cruisers and several flotillas,of destroyers.And that is a formidable fleet.We have no exact check on the British naval force under the famous Admiral Sir James Somerville in those waters, but it is smaller than the Japanese.However, should the mystery flotilla now plowing through the Mediterranean be on its way to reinforce Somerville, it.might mean a sufficient levelling off of relative strength so that the British could challenge the Japs.British reinforcements also would be necessary in event the Allies do occupy Madagascar.Most Allied military experts have been praying the operation would lie carried out before the Axis could take over this great island.i\to.a i\tt -.u\t.®\tenthusiasm in England as St.An-1consistent with the faith and teach- li it were in the hands of\tthe\tJaps they\tcould\tplavldrew in Scotland, and St.Patrick in\ting of the Church?havoc with the supply routes to\tIndia and\tthe Middle I JreI»nd- 0r e!e,\"sLD*vid Wale?;\t!,N°W-, wha^ sPe«ial.contribution 1 1 -,\t_\té\tjin the year 1222 the Great Council did Mark make to Christianity?East which in turn teed Russia.A fillip has been'of Oxford ordered that the drâgon-j It has actually been said that if given to the hope of Allied occupation by the fact !slayefr> faaat should be observed as >11 the rest of the New Testament 1\t1\t*\t;a national festival;
