Girls who attended the McGill University Junior Prom on Friday evening appeared with- out corsages. The committee issued an order banning all corsages. Instead, Itttudrcds of roses, in various shades were sold at the (lance for 50 cents each the proceeds going to a war charity. The committee calculated that without the non- corsage edict some $800 would be spent on floral decorations. By the sale of roses at the dance. the lllcGill \\'ar Fund, it is estimated, will benefit by about $175. Those who neglected to follow the no-cotirage ban had to check them with their coats before going on the dance floor.

NU TIME FOR. PARTYISM

Sin-Does Mackenzie King rea- lize thqgrave, the terrible danger wnfrvntlnz the nation that he leads? Does the Government at 0t- tawa asmrtum the consequences of a Gerirlm victory? A victory that 1s by no means impossible.

Is the Liberal Party aware o! the fact that should Hitler succeed, or a negotiated peace be obtained, freedom of religion, of trade, oi’ the press, of speech and of thought as offered by a democratic govern- ment of the people for the people W1II be liquidated and replaced by barbaric ruthlessness that makes what were free men slaves of tyr- annical German masters?

This trinity of leader. government and party, tllls three in one, this feeble dictatorship within a democ- racy fully realizes the threat of Nazism to the institutions of free

9 men.

But this unholy trinity, like Faust of’ old. is so blinded by a. selfish deals-o for temporary riches and false security for the present that it is willing to risk the safety of its soul and of the future.

This clique of little men headed

y Mr. King Ls so bogged down by and lmbedded in the min of party politics that it. calculates and forms its policies, not relative to the sac- redness of Canada's task, to the pcrF-ction of Democratic ideals or to the advancement. o! world peace 1n the future, but only a0 far as they relate to tho welfare of the Liberal Party.

This gang of politicians who practice demagoglsm to the ex- treme are s0 set on retaining the strength of the party in order to reap the harvest of patronage in- herent 1n 1t that for votes. power and party alms they gladly risk sacrificing the institutions that al- low them to carry on this maltreat- ment. of democratic principles. '

Faust, after several years 1n which all tho material things on earth wen his for the asking. was toro- od to pay the price for his vanity by being condemned to mo tires of Hades forever. So also if the lead- ers at Ottawa continue to plane party before country by neglecting to enforce total war through con- scrlption of men, resources and mo . through the replacement of paras tea with capable, patriotic and energetic lenders and through the establishment of a purely na- tional government is 1t not possible that the free soul of Canada mo)’ be condemned to the Hades of Nazi tyranny and oppression for centur- ies to come?

Parliament is composed of two hundred and forty five who, in theory, are meant to voice the op- lnlons oi’ the people whom they rep- resent. But the malorltv of these men have betrayed their constitu- ents and stand not for the be- llefs of th¢ people but rather for the whims of one, Mackenzie King.

These members of Parliament mav depend on their party for nom- inatlon but. they depend on the people, for the votes that elect them to office.

Public opinion can and must move these mm to action, If you believe that, it 1s imperative for the national well being that the slat!- nrmcy. complacency and the party attitude as portrayed by Ottawa towards the war should be replac- ed by vision, energy and inspiring and courageous leadership let your Federal member know of it in no uncertain terms.

The dangers of Nazism are real; the horrors of its brutality proven. We of Canada are not immune to these dangers and horrors or else Mackenzie Kins. the ptwiflst. would not have ua in IP15 war at all.

So like the boxer who must exert his all to defeat his opponent we of Cfmzula must mobillzg- our re- sources of men, money, brains and courage 1n an all out effort to oxe- cute the downfall of Hitlerism.

It is only common sense that being engaged in a life and death struggle we should put forth all our strength in the battle for vigbory; for unless we szlve our all Canada led by her Government might well be classed with 1r.- perfldlous pugi- list who for sinister reasons pro-

ANTl-PARTISAN The Doctor As Religious Leader

(The Canadian Doctor)

RIM-Du the moat famous or mo- dern doctor-ministers was Wilfred Grenlell, who died 01-1 111a 511,115, of Dee in Chmhire, England, in 1865. He was the son of a church of England clflflymflll. but the love the sea was deeply ingrained in him. for one of his ancestors was Sir Richard Grenville, who was one 07 Enklandw great. naval heroes (b6 fought and sank no less than 53 Spanish galleona in the year 1591 alone),

Grcnfell early determined to be- come a doctor. It was a period when wrseom operated 111 pus- drenclwd and blood-stained frock coats, and the operating room was oft/en in truth the execution room, but. Grenfell took it all in his stride. Ho later interned In the I-Qllkh East End o! London, where 11° had m“? cases of broken heads I" mflld. lyphliis and gonorrhea were as common as sore throats, and he was quite apt 1n treating delerium tremens. He saw what alcohol did to men and early 1n his career he grew to hate 1t,

0M night. Dr. Grenfell was re- turning from an out patient case. when he saw a biz tent tn which Moody and Sanky were holding a revival meeting. He entered, but after listening a while to a very te- dious and aimless discourse he got 11D to leave. The eagle-eyed Moody saw him and called out, "Let, 11s elm; a hymn while our brother rt- ntshes his prayer."

This brought Dr. Grenfell back to his seat. Dwight Moody was as efficient a practitioner of religion as Grenfell was a practitioner of medicine.

"WI-ran I left," sa s Gnenfell, "it was with the determ nation to make religion a real effort or frankly w abandon It. That. could have but one issue while I lived with a moth- er like mine." And Dr. Grenfell became a. practical Christian after that. When he began a; a ship's surgeon on s hosplta] ship with the North fishing fleet. it was with the determination to be a fighting Christian He looked after the souls as well as the bodies of his men.

It. was in connection with his work at 11811078410!‘ that Dr. Gren- fell attained world wide fame. He brought comfort of body and soul to the lonely fisherman, half-breed Eskimos and Indians of Labrador and Newfoundland. He established hospitals, n. branch of the Red Cross and Salvation Army and brought the teachings of Christ to the Edtimos and Indians. He was a practical Christian and he was able to reach his religion in a most parctlcal way.

Dr. Grenfell found that. it is easier to teach religion to “heath- ens" If you make a serious effort to improve their economic status first. He built up the industries tn

Hess Is Talking

(Boston Post)

History may never learn the name of the alarmed orderly who rushed into Hitler's headquarters on the Rusian front yesterday to blurt out: “Hess 1s talking.” And history may never find out "altat Hitler said when he hard 1t.

But the details are not import- ant. The important thing is that today at 10 Downing strees. Prime Minister Churchill must be quiet- ly chuckling. He has chalked up anothtr victory for England and himself 1n the battle of nerves.

The brief’, cleverlv worded thing he said about Hess in his speech to the House of Commons yesterday was hardly an aside which occur- red to him during his most optim- tst1g report to the British people to da .

It must have been done with cool, thought-out deliberation. For yes- terday marked the passage of ex- actly six months to the day since the Nazis franttcallv announced that Hess had fled Germany. and England confirmed that he was a prisoner of war.

For six months Hess has been enveloped In silence. For six months the world has wondered. And for six months Hitler. in moments alone, has wondered if Hess, the fair-haired boy. would ta‘k and what would he say?

The most damaging thine that Hess could any was that, Hitler ts afraid to invade Enzland.
