one “good deed” each day, but it isn’t often the luck of a Scout to gct a chance to do a deed done by one of their agile number in Maine a few days ago. For it was a Boy Scout who put the United States Federal Bureau of In- vestigation on to the two saiibotettrs landed in Maine by a German submarine.

“'l'his lad," says an exchange, “did what every Boy Scout iiuist yearn to do. His deed, indeed a. deed of the best, was to take note of the two strange fellows crzuvling up the bemli. He watchcd them from the cover of the trees and thcn stalked them till he managed to get near his liomc. lle (lashed over there to tell his father, who also happens to be the deputysheriff. So the link was complete. idilfiiélfd llodgkius, the Boy Scout overlaid with badges, tippcd off to his countrymen that the Germans had started again sending sabot- curs into the United States. We pass this on to our Boy Scouts in Canada, now that the Mounted Police have told the people of the Maritime Provinces to look out for other sab» oleurs who may be laiitlcd from other (iermaii submarines in Canada. _\\"ho can tell?"

Young Hanoi-d Hodgkins reflects credit on all Boy Scouts. Ile brought his country's enemies. and ours, to bay. By doing so, forged papers found On thcm showed ho\v the German government expects tn carry the war into 1946. “fhat he did warns us iii Canada of what may be planned against us, too, as the Mounted Police have intimated.

From Ruskin To Bretton Woods

It is many years now since Ruskin wrote: The arrangement of the la\vs of a nation, so as to procure the greatest advantages to itself, and leave the smallest advantages to other nations, is not a. part of the science of political economy, but merely a broad application of the science of fraud.” Disregardcd in their time, these words have become a truism. They apply particularly to our post-war trade prospects. They were em- phasized in other words in the comprehensive address given by Mr. Morris \V. Wilson, presi- dent of the Royal Bank of Canada, at the bank's recent annual meeting. Stressiug the vital importance to Canada's future welfare of I. healthy foreign [trade based on international goodwill and starbihty, Mr. Wilson said we can- not afford to sec the world divided into exclus- ive trading areas after the war, of which one might be based on sterling and another on the ll. S. dollar. Canada would be in a peculiarly disadvantageous position since she properly be- longs to neither group. “Our membership in the British Commonwealth of Nations, and the coincidence that our unit of currency is tianied

Canada must even be prepared to provide credits to countries desiring to import goods on a basis similar to the credits which have been established during the war, .\I‘r. Wilson said. “Furthermore,” he added, “I believe it would be a sound policy for Canada not only to ex- tend liberal long-term credits to countries who are actual 0r potential buyers of Canadian pro- ducts, but in special cases to make outright gifts of foods, raw material, finished goods and mach- inery to assist and hasten the rehabilitation of such countries. Thus far could we go, inde- pendently of the policies of other powers. But e moment of consideration will show how slight our hopes of success would be without interna- tional co-operation."

Now, more then ever before, we must protect the health of the home front-the backbone of the nation's wsr effort. For every mflflbel‘ of the family, from Dad down to the youngest, the Will" °r Scott's Emulsion is highly l ommended as an important tonic and food supplement especially in these times of certain deficiencies. This great year-round tonic contains vital build-up elements everyone needs ' — elements that develop strong bones and healthy teeth in powini children, elements that help s-“mulate the appetite, improve digestion, fortify the system against colds and common winter ills, and build up e sense of vigorand general well-being.

An exclusive method of emulsifying makes Scott's Emulsion 4 times easier to digest than plain cod liver oil. Pleasant-tasting, rich in i Vitamins A and D, this tonic is highly recommended for all the family. Buy a large, economical bottle today-at; all druggistl.
