gether for the grand finale of the finan-
ciai drive with a three-day bazaar and

The speed of Canadian political events

the national crisis. Local committees are
enthusiastic in their planning; they seek
fo. convey this to branch members and
supporters.

The provincial committee makes it
easy for all to sell tickets to the dance at

50 cents, by offering $800 in prizes. Fi
prize of a brand new washing machi
will catch the eye of hundreds of worki
people who cannot possibly get one due

Chesterfield set, stuc

lounge, suit, watch, trilite lamp and fc
cash prizes ranging from $100, make t
tickets really worthwhile.
