THE SWEDISH PRESS Sid. 3. HERREN SÄGER: Jag känner dina gärningar. Se, jag har givit inför dig en upplåten dörr, vilken ingen kan tillsluta, ty du har ringa makt, och du har hållit mitt ord och icke förnekat mitt namn. Se, jag vill giva ur Satans synagoga några av dem, som säga sig vara judar och icke äro det, utan ljuga; se, j g skall göra så, att ue skola komma och tillbedja för dina fötter och förstå, att jag har älskat dig. Emedan du har bevarat mitt tålamods ord, så skall ock jag bevara dig från den frestelsestund, som skall komma i hela världen för att fresta dem, som bo på jorden. Se, jag kommer snart; behåll det du har, att ingen må taga din krona. CENTER & HANNA LTD 1049 Georgia St. W. PAc. 0161. Distingerad begravningsbetjäning. Hlghland 0083 GRANDVIEW FUNERAL HOME R. O.

BANFF GOLFERS AID THE QUE5N’S FUND SWEDEN’S VOLUNTARY DEFENCE . . . Continued from page l cycle Corps are other Swedish units, which have proved to be of great service to the Defence in the present situation. The Motor-boat Corps, for instance, the per-sonnel of which has had to under-go very extensive nautical train-ing in the schools of the ror 5. perform, in cooperation witb the Swedish Navy, patrol duties aion^ certain parts of the Swedish coast visit vessels entering Swedish ports, search for mines, etc. The Swedish Red Cross need hardly to be mentioned, being well-known all over the world for its many relief actions in various countries, both during the pust and the present war. in addition to its other activities, it is organiz-ed to supplement the ordinary medical service of the Swedish Army. It has at present at its dis-posal a trained personnel of 30.-000 persons, of whom the major-ity are women. There are further the Swedish Blue Star 4fornlerly the Red Star), which has assum-ed the task of training women to tend wounded and sick horses and other animals, as well as to provide equipment for such work. A most important function is filled by the Voluntary Rifle Movement, in which hundred of thousands of Swedes of all ages are members and which has con-tributed greatly to uphold and im-prove the shooting skill of the Swedes. In recent years and espe-cially during last winter the afflux of marksmen to the shooting grounds was very large. Still another and, in respect of membership, perhaps, the largest movement, is the A.R.P. Service, which comprises no less than over half a million trained men and women. This movement is, how-ever, not entirely voluntary, as in recent times the A. R. P. Service has largely been organized along ’ compulsory lines. The Swedish voluntary defence organizations are undoubtedly a 1 factor of considerable importance i to the Swedish Defence, which is i also evidenced by the circum- „ .. , . , . , . . ■ stance that they are all receiving Golfers did their bit during the • > f. .
