And how can TYC be truly patriotie? Our love of country must bind us together in a common cause. The cause must not be destructive. the mere desire to de- rent anil degrade other nations. though often in the past, opposition to a common enemy has called forth the highest forms of self sacrifice.

But evon finer is the common cause which is constructive, as real in peace as war, the building up of a new country in our midst. Each of na must go about with open eyer, with a sense of responsibility. W must realise that it is our country, that everything we see concerns 1g, is our affair.

Clyle Progress. »

What will your home town be like in 50 years? It depends on you. Are you resolved that streets will be clean, that it will seem like a bad dream of the past that it was ever necessary to put up notice "do not spit"; that every home will have electric light and water; that buses will run punctually and not break down; that gardens und sunlight will abound and slums be no more: that all will be educated, all will be employed, with salarien promptly paid and progresa depending on zeal and devotion?

War, disease, the slums, unem- ployment are not your fault now, but they will be then if you don't play your part in seeing that they are no more.

And not only must we be public minded and take our share of res- ponsibility for the world around us, but we must put the very best into our own jobs. The world is full of people doing things badly and there Is no greater disservice to your country.

And you must, if you would truly serve your country, be ready to make sacrifice. The world needs men who will give and give freely the best that they have to offer, men who put the claims of country before their own. Very often our country's interests are also our own, but which will you put firat when they do not agree? Not many of us will be called upon to die for our country, but if the call does come, are we ready?

The work is at the Test of the ready man, and If wo would serve our country we must be ready too. And so if we would truly serve our country, let us not be content with outwarit show, with concerts, fire crackers, flags and applause, nor
